The Sundown Southern Eatery officially opened its doors to a welcoming public on Monday, May 10, 2010. The totally renovated restaurant is bright and the decor is decidedly upscale and contemporary with three private dining areas in addition to the lounge area (pictured left) and the two main dining rooms.
The grand opening follows a weekend of soft opening practice for the restaurant’s chef and staff. And the menu is as spectacular as the New York decor. From Yukon Gold Potato Chips with gorgonzola bleu cheese to grilled romaine salad — crab cakes to “The Burger” you’ll find steaks, sea food grilled pork and fried chicken. The menu selections are creative and the presentation complements the fare. Prices are moderate and the service is friendly and focused.
The Sundown Southern Eatery is now open on the historic site formerly known as Christy’s Sundown. It is one more great dining option for Winter Haven residents. Stop in and meet Manager Michael Johnson and his fine staff.

The food and the atmosphere is absolutely incredible and a definite asset to the community. Fred and his staff offer great service and great dining experience.
Wow! Cannot wait to try it. The atmosphere looks beautiful, and the food yummy!
Had dinner here tonight and the food, service and ambience are great. The atmosphere still says ‘old Christy’s Sundown’, but with a fresh updated look and feel — the best of the old and new!
Looks Wonderful-Can’t wait to experience the excitement of Fine Dining. Saving the heritage name of SUNDOWN was the best gesture of commitment that you could offer!!!!
I had lunch at the Sundown this week and it was totally awesome! The atmosphere is so relaxing and the food was great. The remodel is simply beautiful and I am so glad that Polk Countians will still get to enjoy the history behind the restaurant – the walls and doors remained the same…I highly recommend this restaurant to all!
My wife and I first visited this restaurant shortly after it opened. We had a great time and the food and service was excellent. Since then we have been back several times and have grown to love it. The hosts, owners, managers, bartenders, servers, etc are friendly and very good at their jobs. The bar area is a good place to meet and greet both new and old friends. The music nights are great entertainment. For those of you who haven’t been there, you are missing out on excellent food, service and entertainment.
