2023-12-01 02:36:36It’s located in Plaza Bonita Mall next to Target towards the outside facing the parking lot.Plenty of seating if you wanted to have a large party. Service was quick and food was excellent. Usually Filipino cuisine can be too salty for me but not here. They did run out of a few things like the beer selections. We will for sure come back for other dishes.We ordered:-pork sinigang-chopsuey-pancit palabok-beef kare kare-pork sisigMy favorites were beef kare kare and pork sisig. The sisig had the perfect crisp. Pancit palabok was lacking calamansi so we asked for lemons.Great portion size to share amongst 4 of us and with left overs on the pancit and soup. Rice was sold separately by individual bowls.

2023-12-10 00:27:13Food was alright. Unfortunately there are too many other Filipino restaurants that taste better.Service was really unpleasant. We were one of the first customers when it opened and one of our dishes was forgotten and didnt arrive until after we were all done with our meal. Short staff and customer service could have been much better.

2023-08-02 12:26:07Came for an early dinner on Friday and got seated pretty quickly. There was live music; a singer on piano. Loved it!!! Totally unexpected. I would never thought thered be live music in a casual restaurant. The singer was great (think acoustic covers of your favorite 90s-00s songs).We ordered a couple of beers (yep. Filipino beer) and dishes and they came quickly.Lumpia Shanghai (springrolls):crisp and hot. Exactly how they are supposed to be. Portion is huge! But leftover lumpias are good lumpias to me.Grilled octopus:Simple, tasty.Beef kare kare:This is my first time trying kare kare and I was blown away. I did not know about this dish before coming here and honestly I was skeptical at first, but peanut butter beef turned out to be a great combo. Highly recommend!

2023-08-21 14:33:34We got there 2 mins. before they closed and they still let us inside. Sisig was very good and the famous 5 + 1 beer & appetizer was awesome! Gloria, Riza & Marielle were amazing, they accommodate us very well. Well definitely be back there when in town!

2022-12-08 18:33:45Went here on Wednesday night around 6 pm, we had a group of 11 and we did not need a reservation. Got seated right away, and ordered pretty quickly. We ordered: Rice, Garlic Rice, Sizzling Bangus (Milkfish) Sisig, Pancit Canton, Crispy Pata (Pork Knuckles), Chicken Skewers, Bangus Ala Pobre, Pinakbet, Calamares, Sinigang na Boneless Bangus (Milkfish). My favorite was the Bangus Sisig with Garlic Rice, also nice to get an egg added to it as well. I also like the Sinigang na Boneless Bangus, I love sour soup and this had the perfect amount of sourness. I tried everything and there was not anything bad and no one left hungry. The only bad part about this restaurant was the live music was too loud to the point where you couldnt have a conversation with the people at your table, felt like we were at the club. Overall great place and hard working employees.

2022-11-08 01:54:53Very nice atmosphere, clean and food are fresh and delicious authentic Filipino foods. They have live bands and acoustic. This is a gem in San Diego, I will definitely be one of the regulars here. The place is huge and perfect for small to large family and friends gathering and celebration. The servers are very nice, accommodating and polite and they sure we get everythifrom the perfect table that we wanted to all the condiments that we want (we asked for chilli, soy sauce and fish sauce lol). There’s a variety of Filipino food dishes and for sure they have whatever you are craving for. I believe one of the crew that assisted us was I believe it was Mariel, but all of them are nice and friendly. Thanks to ate for taking our photo and to kuya who served our food,

2022-08-26 08:01:44I was in a mood for a Filipino food. This time I thought of checking out Gerrys Grill in the Plaza Bonita Mall. I heard they have some amazing Filipino food.This Is my first time there. When we got there, we were greeted with a friendly smile staff and we were seated in. I ordered Beef Calderita, Sizzling Bangus Sisig, and Molo soup. The wait time was not that bad, about 30 to 40 minutes.The place is clean and tidy. The service was excellent. I couldnt ask for anything more.The food came in at one time. I was hungry and ready to eat. I started with the Molo soup to warm-up the tummy.To my dismay, the Molo soup was not hot but lukewarm. The beef Calderita tasted not freshly cook. As if it was cook before, packaged and reheat to served. The Sizzling Bangus Sisig was not sizzling at all. It lack seasoning.Overall the food was less than satisfactory, To rate it, I give it a dismal 3 out of 5. A score 3 is quite generous in my book.The rest, I give it a 5 for clean/tidy place and friendly staff. Total rate is 4.There is plenty of parking spaces, handicap access, family atmosphere, and a wonderful servers.You ask if I want to go back, Id say yes. Hopefully, the food will be tasty and delicious. Also, I heard their Halo-halo is awesome. I will try that too.Their main dish menu price is a bit in the high side than your standard off mall establishment.Be safe and stay healthy.Good eat.

2022-05-14 17:23:55Came here after running around all day for work with some co-workers. They sat us promptly and the service was great! We ordered lumpia Shanghai hai, Chicharon Bulaklak, sizzling pork sisig with an egg and three orders of garlic fried rice.everything was perfect! The dip fr the chicharon was so vinegary and strong it was so delicious! The sisig was one of the best Ive had in San Diego and the garlic fried rice was such a nice touch to bring everything together! And everything was only $50 pretty affordable

2022-12-23 18:12:40The food is good if you are craving for Filipino dishes. Prices are up and servings stagnant. The place now looks old and needs a makeover. Be aware that there is a service fee added on top of the tip. But service is pretty flat. Employees seem to be rushing here and there and pays little attention to your table.
