If I got a burger and fries, an Iced Tea, and a piece of pie, I'm out $40-$50 with tax and tip. The dog-friendly balcony is awesome, but they should provide a doggie plate and a bowl of water.”

    “I have been to Los Grullenses many times over the years, and it remains one of my favorite places in Salinas for tacos. It’s the kind of spot I keep coming back to when I’m craving good tacos. My go to are tacos al pastor tacos and a chicken sope, and both were delicious. The corn tortillas for the tacos are grilled with some of the flavorful juices from the meat, which gives them an extra layer of flavor. The al pastor was juicy, well seasoned, and full of flavour, and the tortillas really helped bring everything together. The chicken sope was also very tasty. The sope itself had a nice little crispiness to it, the beans were good, and the chicken was flavorful and delicious. Everything is seasoned well, it really works. My husband ordered the tripas tacos, and these were probably the highlight of the meal. The tripas were crispy, flavorful, and cooked exactly the way we like them. If you enjoy tripas, this is definitely one of my favorite ways to have them. We also ordered Jamaica, which unfortunately was just okay. The biggest disappointment was that the drink was served warm despite having ice in it, so it wasn’t nearly as refreshing as it should have been. Overall, the tacos are flavorful, the meats are cooked well, and the grilled tortillas make a noticeable difference. Definitely one of my go-to taco restaurants in Salinas, and I’ll continue coming back for those tripas and al pastor tacos!”

    “The problem, as with all restaurants, is price. $8.95 for a piece of pie. It looks great; $25 for a sandwich and fries is just too much for me with the economy the way it is. If I got a burger and fries, an Iced Tea, and a piece of pie, I'm out $40-$50 with tax and tip. The dog-friendly balcony is awesome, but they should provide a doggie plate and a bowl of water.”

I ordered the teriyaki salmon box with salmon sashimi. The salad was fresh and light, and the salmon was a good portion for a lunch special. It was cooked perfectly and full of flavor. My son ordered two rolls, including the fried California roll, and honestly, that ended up being my favourite! It was so tasty and had the perfect mix of flavors. Our waitress, Monica, was great. She was sweet, kind, and attentive. We had great food, great and fast service, and a really enjoyable lunch with my son. We would definitely return and recommend it.”

The other wings with the red sauce tastes like real dryed chiles and its a bit spicy but i would not change the intensity. We got fries and beverages, all of this for a very afordable price and we still had left overs to go. The food come out quickly and you can really taste the freshness. The location is quiet and lots of parking, you can eat in your car or take to go. Thank you Crystal for the great service and delicious food.”

The lunches are a good deal, enough food for two meals for me. However, going with my family and getting a variety of dishes is what we like the best. Usually there are six to eight of us and we get to eat all of our favorites.”

    “Came across Thanh Loi restaurant on a trip back from Paso Robles to Bay Area. Many that often travel the 101 corridor will quickly notice there are limited options for Asian foods let alone Viet food. Wife and I rolled the dice on this restaurant due to the food selections it offered and glad we did! Don't let the name fool you, it offers more than just pho, there are rice plates and vermicelli bowls. The restaurant is bright and spaces, the owners are an elderly couple that greet everyone upon arrival. We felt at home with the initial interactions received was very welcoming. The food was on point with all the flavors and ingredients present. The staff checked on us at the right time and frequency, which some restaurants overlook this simple practice. In my opinion considering this is Salinas and not San Jose, it is very acceptable for the area if you are seeking Vietnamese food. If you are using San Jose as a baseline, find the nearest Panda Express to hold you over until you get to San Jose. Overall we had a pleasant dining experience and Thanh Loi does deserve a try, we will be back whenever we are in the area.”

    “Came here sunday evening. Ordered a mix of wings and chicken strips. I really enjoyed the wings, the flavors are very unique like no other place. The mango habanero tastes like real mango. The other wings with the red sauce tastes like real dryed chiles and its a bit spicy but i would not change the intensity. We got fries and beverages, all of this for a very afordable price and we still had left overs to go. The food come out quickly and you can really taste the freshness. The location is quiet and lots of parking, you can eat in your car or take to go. Thank you Crystal for the great service and delicious food.”

    “The Pho and Banh Mi were excellent! One of the best restaurants I have tried in central California: the quality, portions and most especially, the cost, are on point. If you are into Asian/Vietnamese food, then this place is it. This unassuming food court establishment wins out over the majority of the fanciest restaurants in the area. Yes, sometimes the service takes a while, but it was worth it. I highly recommend them if you are at Northridge Mall.”
