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...
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...
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 food...
I was very disappointed with the online ordering experience at Grill City’s South San Francisco location. Even though I placed my order 24 hours in advance, I faced multiple problems: the staff had no record of my pickup order when I arrived, the chicken skewers were out of stock so I had to take all pork BBQ instead, the grilled pampano wasn’t ready which caused a 10-minute wait, and one of my items was incorrect when I got home. Your advertisement promises a hassle-free online ordering process, but my experience was quite the opposite. Please work on improving your system, as I expected a smooth experience and instead encountered frustration and delays.

I wish there was an option for negative stars because this place doesn't deserve even one. The ordering system is extremely frustrating and complicated. If you're a light eater, I definitely recommend avoiding this restaurant. You are required to order a large meal; they won't let you just get something for yourself. You have to order enough for a whole family, which is ridiculous.
Grill City offers a fantastic value for straightforward, authentic Filipino cuisine. The silog meal, dinuguan, and halo-halo not only taste great but are also budget-friendly. Don’t expect anything fancy here, but if you’re craving home-style food that truly satisfies, this is the place. Whenever I visit my family in the Bay Area, I always make a point to stop by.
I ordered the small veggie sisig, referred to as "VIGGIE SISIG." They charged me an additional $2 on top of the base price of $5.99, plus tax. The portion size was very small, and I'm confused about what the extra $2 is for. Paying nearly $8.48 for such a small serving doesn't add up. I'd really like to know what that $2 charge is for.
The BBQ chicken was just average. The palabok had very little sauce and lacked meat or shrimp. The stuffed bangus, priced at $22 for two halves, was not worth it.
