They have changed containers for ulam from plastic to paper ones. The paper container are a lot smaller and charged me 20 bucks! They're ripping people off!

Food is good but customer service is poor especially the cashier. They should be polite and should not be tough to customers.

I've been going here for takeout for a few years now. I found that only their bbq skewers taste good. My favorite is the pork skewers. They are juicy and tasty, also great price. It gets busy here around dinner time, but the line moves quickly. I can only recommend getting the skewers. Like what other reviewers have said, the other items don't taste good.

Unfriendliest workers I've ever met. I waited in line, and they took the filipino gentleman's order first, AND he was behind me. Discrimination at its finest. They took so long, I decided I didn't want to support a business like this.

The food was amazing and delicious. They had filipino cuisine and street cart food. They even had Halo Halo ice cream but limited, waited too long for it so I gave up. But I tried their food on the grill. BbQ chicken on the stick was fire. Their Adobe chicken was fired and longuanisi was delicious. Now the fried food like the pork chops, fried shrimp, fried lumpia and fried pork ? was to die for. I mean the flavors were out of this world. It was too good that I couldn't stop myself. I really wanted to try the dessert but only one worker ND she was really not trying to move. I waited 20mins and couldn't wait no more. But I definitely will be returning because I want to try the street car foods and dessert. What's even a plus is that there's a seafood market, red ribbon and jollibee there too.

This located within the grocery store - Seafood City.Perfect location when you are doing a grocery run around meal time and you are getting hungry.Order and Service is similar to Panda Express, except it is definitely a lot slower than I expected. Everything was made and ready to grab but I somehow waited 10-15 mins waiting for the line to move. I only tried the chicken skewer with sauce and I think the flavor was pretty good. The only downside is that it was already at room temperature or slight cold which is not what I expected

Food is good enough I guessI only order takeout but the service seemed reasonable enoughSupermarket restaurant vibes are hit or miss
Don't expect too much from a turo-turo (Filipino fast food) inside Seafood City. I came here on an early Saturday evening to buy some ulam (entrees) to go. The ambiance is a typical food court stand with steam trays of various Filipino entrees. I'm giving an additional star for the food because I like their tender sweet chicken barbecue on a stick. I usually get their 4+1 barbecue deal when I crave for it. Their ulam is usually between a hit or miss. I don't recommend their pancit (especially palabok) because it's usually dry or over stirred. However, I do like their grilled seafood (tilapia, squid, pompano) because their seafood is grilled and marinated with diced tomatoes and onions. I am also a fan of their laing because it is consistently creamy, not too salty and perfectly paired with steamed rice. Service was hella slow despite only having 4 staff on duty and four other folks behind me. It's partly because the group of friends ahead of me ordered 1 halo-halo but the staff mistakenly heard them say 4 halo-halo. I'm sorry, but I tried Grill City's halo halo before and is not that great. It is because it lacks ingredients including preserved fruit and ube halaya. The group could have bought halo halo with more complete ingredients, across the parking lot at Chowking. They also use subpar quality of evaporated milk (generic Pamana store brand that is not even close to Carnation or Black & White). Please note, I am not throwing shade but I am giving constructive criticism to the staff and managers at Grill City. I nearly waited in line for 10 minutes until I was able to place my order. My order was "already staring at me" yet I could not place my order immediately due to lack of courtesy from the staff on duty. That day, I only ordered two items: 4+1 chicken barbecue deal and 1 grilled tilapia. I honestly don't understand why the staff couldn't tell us "please wait a few minutes. We will assist you shortly." Or in Filipino, "Sandali lang po. Aasikasuhin po namin kayo mamayang konti." To Seafood City's Grill City management at South SF, please re-evaluate your service when it comes to addressing an unexpected rush of customers & be more courteous to customers when you are experiencing service shortages.

I visit Grill City every week to buy food for my mom since she likes their laing. I usually buy a meal that comes with a side. I understand if your side is a meat item, there is an upcharge of $1. If you don't know, the person helping you will let you know. Today, I noticed a charge for another $1. I asked the cashier why is there another $1 charge. She rudely states it's a dollar more because the pompano was "big". Nowhere does it say you will get charged more if the cashier believes the item is "big". Not on their board or any other signage. All the fish from the serving area were of the same size. Person helping me did not say, hey this fish is "big", we will charge you an extra $1. There was no separate section from the fish choices that showed a big or small fish and their pricing. Watch you receipts and make sure they charge you correctly. They will sneak in an extra charge when they can (even though they have already raised their prices).
