Sunset Grill
Sunset Grill is a favorite of Cara Lagana, who works in NASCAR television. Its on the Kentucky side of the river across from the Belterra. Good food, amazing location, fun atmosphere. Sit outside at night and watch the sunset on the river. Good/cheap food and beer. At lunch one time, they had a burger bar. Just like a neighborhood cookout-tell em what you want and they'll make it. Good laid-back restaurant.
