Great garlic fries, better than any ballpark. Really friendly service especially with the bunny hunt.

My family and I recently went to the Santa Cruz beach boardwalk and we ate lunch here. I had a corn dog and a few garlic fries! Both were delicious but if you don’t like a lot of garlic I would recommend not to order the garlic fries because they are loaded with garlic! Garlic lovers will find them perfect for a snack though!
I’d definitely eat here again!

I ordered the Bacon Cheeseburger, and it was good. The fries were also good. Pricing is a little steep for the combo, and it doesn't come with a drink. I guess that's pretty standard for this area. I was disappointed in the Texas Donut. The taste was good, but it was pretty dry inside. It also needed more glaze on the outside. My boyfriend got the Cajun Corn Dog, and he seemed to like it. There is indoor seating available. I would eat here again.

the zucchini were double fried in old oil, same as the garlic fries, the hamburger meat was cold, the quality of the food was very poor, definitely a place I would not eat again

We decided to get a quick lunch and Surf City Grill made it easy to order. The size of the corn dog was huge! And you can tell it's made fresh. The order came with regular fries but had to try out the garlic fries, and they didn't disappoint. The wait was not long and we were able to continue our day on the boardwalk. Great choice!

Corn dog and decent fries, quickly served.

Do not order the turkey deli sandwich. It is pre-made, which is not what I was expecting from a grill. I thought I was ordering a fresh deli sandwich. Had to wait 15-20+ minutes. Pre-packed, cheese was soggy, and lettuce wilted. I have had better deli sandwiches from a gas station convenience store. Definitely not worth $10. Save your money, order a grilled item or go to another food vendor.The chicken nugget combo and corn dog were worth the purchase. Real chicken nuggets, not ground/processed chicken, large portion, enough to share.

Pathetic experience at the Surf City Grill. They took our order and provided us a buzzer that would vibrate once the order was ready. We were told that the order would be ready within 10-15 minutes. We stood patiently outside, staring at the buzzer, while groups that ordered way later than us received their food, ate it and left. 30 minutes later, we asked when we would receive our food, we were told "Just 2 minutes". 10 minutes later, we were again told "Just 2 minutes". Then one of the ladies said "Garlic fries take time", while serving folks who placed their orders 5 minutes ago, plates and plates of garlic fries. We got tired of their stalling and waiting, and finally left with a refund.I understand they were probably short staffed or busy, but at least don't lie to your customers!

This place had good reviews that are not true. Corn dog might as well be mystery meat. For some reason the corn dog had juice which is gross and makes no sense.
