In actuality, Pop is not a person, it’s a sound.
We’ve been asked many times over the years, “Who is Pop?” Most expect Pop to be one of the owners or a local beer drinking legend or even baseball hall of famer Willie Stargell. We are committed to provide quality meals and beverages, served in a casual, friendly, inviting and welcoming tradition of hospitality. Pop’s entire team of owners, managers and staff are at your service. Year after year, tens of thousands of guests arrive at Pop's for a taste of Old Florida while enjoying the beautiful Intracoastal Waterway, the fabulous natural wildlife and the scenic view of watercraft gliding by. Pop’s Sunset Grill is a one-of-a-kind destination and we intend to sustain the unique character for the foreseeable future.
Pop’s Tiki Bar and Bou-Tiki opened in January, 2019
Complete renovation of the main building. Installation of five fire pit tables and redesigned landscape in Pop’s Courtyard. We have focused on maintaining the Old Florida charm while updating and enhancing the property. In 2001, the current ownership group purchased both Pop’s Tropigrille and Urbanek’s Fish Market and merged them to form one restaurant known as Pop’s Sunset Grill, keeping the favorite menu items of both. Pop’s Tropigrille - the sign formerly in the parking lot and now in Pop's Tiki proves this chapter. Britt’s Place - a fine dining establishment. Buoy Bar - a biker bar with pool tables. Silver Shark - featuring sharks in a fish tank near the outside bar. Over the years, the restaurant went through several iterations: Urbanek's Fish Market was a local favorite and supplied many restaurants in the Nokomis area.Īt some point, another restaurant was built on the adjoining land and they operated independently in a peaceful coexistence for many years. Urbanek had emigrated from Cuba in a Cuban Navy Boat, which he used as his fishing vessel to supply his burgeoning fish market with product. The story of Pop’s Sunset Grill began in the 1940’s when Urbanek’s Fish Camp first settled on the plot of land currently occupied by Pop’s Tiki.
