Great outdoor area across PCH, with nice selection of food and some well prepared drinks. The bar are is good sized and the Nachos were awesome! The service was friendly and more than happy to suggest some of their favorites. We walked from our Hotel, so not sure about the Parking

Love this fabulous local place. Incredible location. Inventive cocktails and such yummy food. Seriously good food for anywhere. And this is a bar!! Loco moco, bacon bombs, salads!! The service is lovely - nicest servers and so attentive. Cannot recommend this establishment more. Oh! And the stunning beach and sunset view for 180 degrees does not hurt.

Sunsets has been one of my favorite places for a handful of years although i don't get to make it too often, when i do I'm always happy with the food and drinks,! My two favorite food items are the Kalua pork taquitos and the spicy tuna bites; my favorite beverages are the Mainland Rita and the Ring of fire! I usually sit outside on the patio when available (it fills up!) - if you do want outside bear in mind some of the tables (if your a group of 2) are veeeeeery tiny (if it's packed and those are the tables that are left) but the view is worth it! I've had lots of very nice servers however it's not always the greatest service (delays/extended time waiting) but it's a bar so it gets pretty busy! Honestly 1 bite into the delicious food it won't even matter!

Spent a weeks vacation at Dana Point. Sunsets was literally 300 ft from my room. That place is packed ALL DAY. Spent every afternoon there for happy hour and returned Friday night and Saturday night for their nightclub! Staff is great, food is great, atmosphere is great pricing is great. And the view..... look it up.

What a fun find! We lucked out finding a parking space in the small lot in back, as well as getting a table window with a view of the ocean. Fun atmosphere and locals energy. When I saw Loco Moco on the menu, I knew that that was what my husband would order, and he did. Attractive in presentation, generous portions, and he stated the tastiest Loco Moco he's had (highly complimenting the deep, flavorful gravy). My Oriental Salad was fresh, crisp, and refreshing -- just what I was looking for on a hot day. The staff appeared to display good energy and teamwork; our server was OK overall (not terribly personable or attentive and slow to follow through). Nonetheless, good drinks! Eager to return.

I think all ratings should be in the context of what you are reviewing. As far as bar food / bar experience goes, this place is 5 stars. This rating is based on two visits. - can't beat the view (hence the name), but you are elevated above PCH, so it can be noisy. We sat on the patio. - service can be very slow when crowded, but still friendly -$5 Mai Tai during happy hour. Good flavor, good amount of alcohol - Sharkbait gin drink - fantastically tropical - Spicy Tuna bites: these were absolutely shockingly flavorful. Light won tons, fresh tuna. I will get these on every visit. - Banh Mi Sliders: the mix of coconut, spice, cucumbers and chicken was awesome - Chicken tacos: chipotle cream kept the chicken moist. Very good. - Chicken Nachos: These were fine. Good for kids or with beers, but nowhere near the unique flavors and preparations of the other items we ate

We were vacationing along this road and while we were biking down the coast we noticed this bar. It had such a cute deck facing the ocean we HAD to check it out. And surely enough it had a GORGEOUS view of the ocean! We can for happy hour around 4 and were dining till past the sunset. It was amazing because it wasn't very crowded and happy hour food was great! We ordered: -chicken quesadillas -teriyaki chicken bowls (HH) -bahn mi sliders -kalua pork tacos (HH) -choco lava bites Everything was yummy!!! I would say the teriyaki chicken wasn't the most amazing I've ever had but it was still good and a great value for the price. Satisfied my teriyaki craving. The quesadillas were really yummy and the coco lava bites are a MUST! Service was great too. There was only one lady waiting on tables and we were surprised that she could remember our large order without writing anything down! So skilled!
