The Famous Sunset Grill Hollywood

The original Sunset Grill opened in 1957 on Sunset Blvd and immediately became popular in Hollywood, Los Angeles for its’ fine burgers and friendly Hollywood Restaurant service. The original owner, Joe Froelich, emigrated from Vienna with his family. He was referred to as “The old man from the old world” in Don Henley's famous 1984 song “Down at the Sunset Grill.” Joe was well known among famous celebrities for his burgers (especially the double Chili Cheese Burger!) and customer service. Don Henley's song was heard at many restaurants in Hollywood from Hollywood Blvd to Sunset Boulevard, West Hollywood to the East Hollywoods and even to the shores of Santa Monica.

There were old wrecked Dodge vehicles parked alongside the celebrities newest Mercedes and Cadillacs because everyone wanted to be a part of the legendary eatery in Hollywood Los Angeles. For a while, members of Guns N’ Roses lived behind Sunset Grill in a storage on Sunset Blvd and rehearsed behind the Hollywood restaurant and were regulars of the then Los Angeles cultic hangout spot even after becoming famous. Over the past 62 years Sunset Grill was infamous for Celebrity spotting as numerous famous musicians passed through the essential Hollywood restaurant doors and it’s been consistently popular with customers stating "food was delicious!"

In 1998, Joe sold the 1957 Rock N' Roll Landmark burger joint business on Sunset Boulevard right next door to the Hollywood Guitar Center. The perfect location that allowed for famous musicians to grab some quick bites as they bought new instruments to rock out!

We focus on affordable fast service food with the feeling of fine dining and even a location where one can have a good business meeting at. With a view overlooking Sunset Boulevard, a fully stocked wine bar, and one of the best cocktail bars available at an affordable price, makes Sunset Grill the location to dine in Los Angeles.
