Food is good... we ordered calamari, bistek tagalog, grilled seafood and more. There's live music and service is awesome!
Love the ice tea here and it’s my favorite. The rest was good.

My wife and I and other friends come here to enjoy this Gerry's Hospitality and Menu selection. There is something that needs to be improved, GRILLED TUNA JAW(PANGA) two orders I had were all burnt like charcoal that I cannot even eat the rest because the meat is so charred that the fish flesh is so bitter because of burned flesh. Pleases improve the method of cooking it on the grill. I know you gus can do better. Thank you.
First time in this restaurant. My husband and I decided to give it a try. Service was bad and slow. We’ve been waiting for 45 mins and just to be told that the other menu we ordered was not available. The waiter has a runny nose (not wearing a mask) and he was touching the inside of the bowl with his bare hands. We just paid for our drinks and walked out the restaurant. Not coming back again. No wonder they only have 3 stars.
Came 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 I've 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
We got there when they opened but it took 45 minutes before we got our order. Our appetizer came on the middle of the meal!!! Food taste was just okay. Portions were good. There are much better Filipino restaurants in the county.
Being in a food industry they should be helpful, hospitable and shows respect to each customer. This location doesn’t have any of those. The food was great tho. I would like to mention ESPERANZA our server who is very rude and giving some attitude.From the time we got there me and my family was just standing and waiting for the hosts, and guess what? There’s 3 servers/ host( including ESPERANZA) were in there just talking to each other (this time they’re not busy). They didn’t say any single word. I have to approach them in tell them. This server gave us already an attitude. So, we waited 20 mins to get our table and the way she mentioned my name feels like I’m not a customer. We got a table, ordered and when the food arrives we told the person who’s giving out our food that the food he served is wrong. So he talk to our server ESPERANZA and this girl keeps arguing with us. She didn’t apologize to what happened. She just walked out and shouted “HAY NAKO!”. And after that she didn’t checked us if we need anything or what.I am hoping that the management should take a serious action about this.
I had fun, and I want more Kare kare lol.I'm a fan of Live Band Music. We need it sometimes!Just be prepared to wait on peak nights like Friday.First time coming here.1) The Wait is somewhat long (Friday night) but you can go to the bar area and have a cocktail, Steve was our server and served us pretty drinks like a mai tai and pina colada virgin.2) Strict rules on Friday nights when there is a band, you cannot reserve a table unless you have 3 or 4 Physically present with you.On Friday I believe it closes 11 p.m. instead of the regular 9. p.m.If you have a group of 4 or more you would probably get a table right away or wait just a few minutes the people have to be present.You cannot reserve if it's just 2 people, while we were awaiting our friends who came from traffic. So no saving tables on Friday nights.We are a group of 5 but my friend and I arrived earlier but we were not able to get a table until the rest of our guest showed up. That was kind of a bummer because we arrived there 5:30 p.m. and waited for the rest of our party and we couldn't even get sitted till they arrived 6:30 almost. So We watch a bunch of people who we were ahead of go before us. Kahit maaga kami.There was a mix up in the rules. One server was giving us one answer the other a different answer. It was really crowded but I guess it's a popular place on Friday nights with a live band!Band was fine. The decor of the restaurant was beautiful, lot of space! Love the floorplan and layout of the tables.We ordered Kare Kare I loved it. I usually just eat more of the sauce. Rice was great, the appetizers, calamari, good too it came in rings. It's great to have a place to go to with a live band and good food.Although the wait was long I guess it's worth it and gives you a chance to chat up with your friends and socialize. My friend was craving the Crispy pata. She liked it.We took several photos and the band members were nice. I thought that one of the waitress forgot my drink but finally she did come over with the admf drink hehe. I don't know how it is on other days but that Friday had a lot of people who look excited on getting a table.It was certainly happening. I guess since we've been stuck sa pandemic that we needed to be out.All the servers were wearing their mask. Parking is at the Plaza bonita parking. I would have given 5 stars but only because the answer of the servers were inconsistent as to reservations etc.They did good job serving our food, asking if we needed more. There were time I needed to wave at the waitress but I figured they are so busy it's normal for her to take time. FOOD WAS TASTY.(Kare kare) and the Calamari and Lumpia, as for the noodle I think they could have given more or done better.I am glad that I finally get to listen to LIVE MUSIC!!!! That's worth it. Lot of fun.. I don't recommend ordering through doordash because the portions seem so small.I do think it's nice for you to experience the lively place !
Our family, extended family and friends have eaten here so many times, but I am finally giving them a review! So, WE LOVE THE FOOD!Many times we have celebrated here, and last night 2/27/21 was no exception.We enjoy the BBQ skewers both pork and chicken, Pancit Palabok (noodles with special sauce), Niligang Bulalo (beef with greens soup), Dinakdakan (wonderful dish with diced pork, jalepeno, onions, and special sauce likely with mayo) with garlic rice. Those are the staples of what we usually get. My father inlaw ordered a shrimp and veggie plate. My son opted for crispy Tilapia, and for the appetizer we ordered the Shanghai Lumpia.So for starters, the food is very delicious, but it's really expensive because typically you'll order many dishes and share as a family. But some dishes are smaller in size. Like the skewers have 3 and the family would share, and might need two orders. If you order the Niligang Bulalo sopa, it won't feed many. The crispy Tilapia is small. I ate very light because with 3 males on our table i wanted to make sure they ate their fill, while it doesn't take much for me to get full. I like to enjoy flavor, and savor it.Plan ahead because since the food is freshly prepared it takes a little time.This is why we reduced our visits to special times (or after a nice payday).I recommend the Gerrys special iced tea, it's delicious. The Calamansi is ? yummy (a bit sweet for my taste), and the fresh coconut drink is amazing (yes u get a shaved coconut shell), too!My mother in law loves the Halo Halo there. They used shaved ice. Of course it's delicious. They served us 2 complimentary desserts with Turon (fried banana) and Ube (sweet purple yam ice cream). So good. Happy birthday to my sis in law!!! She rolled out of there. I saved some leftovers for my daughter who didn't make it.Also, they do temperature readings for each person. And pls be patient, most restaurants are low in staff so you have to get their attention.Relax enjoy, be merry and eat, eat ,eat!!!
