Sunset Foods

Very clean store and organized. Love the complimentary coffee, deli, bakery, and so many other options in the grab and go departments. I had to do some tastings here and the staff was extremely helpful and welcoming. I enjoyed working here. They bake and cook many things in store, it’s amazing!

Lovely local grocery store. Not as big as Mariano's or Heinen's nearby, but it is very clean and convenient and the service is outstanding. Store is always clean, everything is well-stocked, and the produce is top notch. There is never a line at the registers - the manager is always hovering and if he sees someone waiting in line he will open a register and check you out himself. Oh, and don't miss the Do-Rite Donuts they stock in the bakery fresh every morning!

EVERY store should have a greeter like Margaret!! She is always smiling, pleasant and friendly. Love Sunset Foods!

My go-to grocery store for when I want the best produce, meat, fish, fresh bread, imported cheeses, etc. And who doesn't want that?
Nobody compares, or even comes close - outstanding customer service, like no other. Shout out to managers Pete and Bill for running a stellar operation. You deserve awards!!

Having grown up shopping at Sunset in Lake Forest with my family since the 1970’s. One thing has never changed. The Sunset staff is a family and they always get to know you and greet you and your family by name. It’s like the “Cheers” of grocery stores. You wanna shop where everybody know your name. Shop Libertyville and stop at the grill for a snack or try a new wine or micro brew while you shop. It doesn’t get any better than this!

The charm of this grocery store matches the charm of the town it resides in. Love, love, love. You'll pay $35 for shrimp cocktail, but would you expect anything different in Lake Forest? If so, you're lost. Go home.

Always excellent service and the deli is amazing

I've always had a good experience here. Grocery options are more than adequate and I feel that prices aren't as high as other high end grocers yet are comparable to stores like Jewel. Sunset has a liquor store as well which made grocery shopping convenient. The cashier also gave me a recipe for a honey liqueur I bought that I never thought of.

The best delicatessen in the surrounding area! Fabulous guacamole by far of all the Sunset Foods!
Always fresh and appetizing Gourmet Creations - their chef staff go out of their way to ensure perfection. Award10 stars!!

Sunset has always been my favorite place!!

Great selection of gourmet items. The best deli and prepared foods made from scratch. Excellent salad bar and juice bar. Free knife sharpening. Store isn't too big so they can offer personal service.

Local chain with first rate seafood, hot line, bakery and produce. Clean and well stocked. Staff is helpful and friendly. Nice liquor and wine selection. Some gourmet gems. Catering for party or holiday small eats is superior. Fresh made deli items and grab and go eats and soups are delicious and convenient.

Sunset in Lake Forest has provided excellent service and products for our family for over 50 years. They hold on to their strong core values of service and community care, while staying closely attuned to high quality products and new food trends. I appreciate the excellence and support they give us and our community.

Loved this market because it is like my kitchen, a hybrid between natural and healthy and all the regular stuff. They realize that sometimes you want organic and sometimes you just need a bag of chips. I also loved the feeling that this is a store owned by people, not a corporation, and that they stock their shelves with the things they think will interest their customers.

I still visit Sunset anytime I'm in town. I especially like the deli lemon Parmesan tilapia, Lobster muffins, butternut squash risotto, etc. In fact I love this place so much I drove an hour and a half to pick up catering for a fancy Christmas dinner last year.

sunset foods has always been a pleasant place to shop at for me. The staff is very friendly. Let me tell you yes you can find groceries anywhere no a days but you'll never find a Meat Department as good as Sunset Foods. I live about 35 minutes away and anytime I crave a mean Ribeye or any other kind of meat I will always go there. They cut the fat if i ask them to or slice it in half, very friendly. I am a very picky customer and they have never treated me with attitude.

I forgot my credit card once, and instead of treating me like an inconvenience, they put my groceries in a cooler until I came back. The manager even came out to tell me that it happens all the time. Sunset’s staff always stands at the end of the aisles to help unload your cart or answer your questions. Grocery pickup is a nice perk, too. Their deli section is so fresh (shout-out to Sunset’s tuna!)...and now I’m hungry. P.S. If something (liquor, specialty food) isn’t in stock, they’ll friggin order it for you and sometimes even keep it in stock.

These guys are beyond incredible, I shop for my different clients here and today I was on a time crunch so I asked the client to stay in the car, I ran in and ripped the shopping list in half and asked a lady that works there to find the items listed and meet me at the checkout. 5 minutes in and out with a 12 item list. Thanks Sunset!

Much better experience here than I had going to Mariano’s. Sunset is cleaner,better stocked and no attitude from the employees…an area which Mariano’s seems to excel at.

I didn't actually visit the store, I am out of state, however I needed a fruit basket with ripe fresh organic fruit and other goodies delivered to my cousin who just had a baby and was in the Hospital close by. The gentleman in produce with whom I spoke was so helpful and listened to everything I wanted. He included crackers, chocolate and cheese, and even a stuffed doggie and balloons. Two were yellow just as I had requested and the third was a Mylar it's a girl balloon that was just the perfect touch. The basket was huge and perfectly arranged and balanced with no fillers. And I was so impressed that it was put together and delivered in less than an hour and a half!

It took me hours the evening before on the internet and then all morning calling around to find an establishment who could do it right away and with beautiful ripe fresh fruit, but I could tell from the photos that it was well worth the effort.

Thank you so much!
