Fantastic As Usual!! Beef strips- so tender. Chicken moist and full of flavor.Great homemade macaroni salad!! So much food. Lunch tomorrow!
One of the most disrespectful places I've ever been. The staff is rude and they're always understaffed but want to complain about paying customers. My family just went there and the waitress (owners wife) complained that my 4 year old autistic nephew was making too much noise and that my family always complains about something when we go there? Seriously? Maybe if it didn't take 45mins to get food because you have 1-2 people working, we wouldn't have anything to say. Show some respect. As Chamorros, my family has been going there for years to support a local Chamorro business but they are a disgrace to our people especially after today. The owner wants to apologize after being confronted but the wife feels she's in the right for complaining about paying customers and a harmless little boy, show some respect for yourself. She probably complains about all people with disabilities that go there. What a catch.
CAUTION: The place DOES NOT like those with disabilities to dine there. The OWNER and his wife (waitress) literally just complained to my family about the noise my autistic nephew was making (which is uncontrollable) while they waited forever for their order. Then, after they had complained about the poor service received, they immediately claimed to know my family and said we “always” complain…uh, I’ve been maybe twice (not much because I know what kind of service I’d be getting into by coming there) NOT TO MENTION: they’re always understaffed, so unless you have a bunch of time to wait, FIND A DIFFERENT PLACE TO EAT. As a Chamorro, I try to support but I’m always underwhelmed every time and always have to wait forever. This place is average food for being overly priced. I’d rather goto SMACK’N Grill in Mira Mesa. At least, they take care of their customers. My family can make the same dishes much more delicious for FAR LE$$. Long story short, we won’t be going there anymore and neither should you. [coming soon…owner’s unprofessional response, as seen before]UPDATE (in response to the owner): It’s clear that you deal with many upset customers because you’re not exactly describing the incident that happened to my family so it’s pointless to continue going back and forth.BUT yes, my family had been coming for years….It’s called “SUPPORT” for fellow Chamorros, which made them look the other way on your OVERPRICED FOOD AND POOR SERVICE. And Yes, you gave the money back because we complained, and there wouldn’t have been a complaint IF THERE WASN’T AN ISSUE with your restaurant.. Now, You don’t have to tell us to shop elsewhere because your AVERAGE-QUALITY RESTAURANT WITH POOR SERVICE let us know we should shop elsewhere. TO FUTURE READERS: Save yourself time and lots of money, in the words of the owner himself, “shop somewhere else”.
Absolutely delicious food! Chamorro grill is an amazing hole in the wall with great service and delicious food. The prices are comparable to the location and the quantity of food is good enough to satisfy the hungers of any person.Personal favorites are John’s teriyaki chicken and the empanadas.The grill can get busy around lunch time so it is recommended to call ahead or have time to sit and wait (15-20 min on a slow day). Have gone three times and have not been disappointed yet.Highly recommend you give it a shot and take an appetite.
Hafa! Service was super friendly when we went. Try to go a bit later for lunch as this place seems to get busy. The food was delicious! The empanadas are Chamorro style if you are expecting the Mexican or Filipino sort. So being a Chamorro, I found it mangi'! The chicken kelaguen had some kick. Ask for the donne dinanche if you need more heat. Prices aren't so bad as well. Totally a hole in the wall!
Tasty. First let me say that as a Chamorro, we can be very critical and picky about authentic cuisine. Recently my B.I.L. and Nephew chose to use them for a Family Celebration of Life gathering. As most Chamorro families the food would be provided by potluck from family members. For this event, due to the quantity of guests additional food was sought from the Grill. First complaint is that they stated they could not have the food prepared for the scheduled time of the event. Requiring the family to alter the event plans. Second, they gave a time for pick up, and when the family member arrived to pick the food up, it was not ready. Obviously causing a delay in the event timing of food serving to guests. It is my opinion that a caterer provides the food or service when required by the customer, not the reverse, That a good business is timely and meets the customers need. Will think twice before using their services again or if at all!
Ordered the mix combo plate which is popular! Chicken Kelaguen, BBQ Chicken, Red Rice, Macaroni Salad, Finadene Sauce! Food was good. I dined in, food was ready in 10 minutes. Chicken Kelaguen had a lil kick to it!
Delicious food! This place seems like a hidden treasure. I went on a Tuesday and the place was empty. I've been craving musubi for a year; Chamorro Grill offers 3 kinds. I'll be back to eat my way through their menu. ?
Thru Uber eats delivery. I must say years ago when I first moved to San Diego I was totally Unhappy with the food and never went back..being a Chamorro myself I tend to be picky about 'Local' foods.This time since way back I must say my Pork Rib and beef combo was very good. What a difference since back then. I will give other choices a try as well. I am not too fond of clear pancit noodles. I prefer original Guam style Pancit. I will be coming back and probably introducing some Cali friends in the neighborhood to this place. PS.. the kimchee diago cucumber was well prepared too. No complaints there.
The Chicken Teriyaki I ordered for pick up came as just fried chicken and a cup of teriyaki sauce… meaning that I had to try to evenly distribute the sauce to the chicken which didn’t work… never seen teriyaki served like that before… wasn’t a fan. The pancit is about 1% the flavor of what you’d expect/want/enjoy and is not worth paying for… which is a shame because I love pancit. All in all, not something I’d ever pay for again, but I wouldn’t be upset to eat for free…
