    A beautiful restaurant with spacoous seating and great service. Family owned and taste os delicious and fresh (thank you to the cooks and baker) for always serving up Samoan food with style. Cleanliness and hospitable service always! Blessings!

    First responder friendly!

    Great customer service, HHUUUHGGGEEEEE selection... definitely one of those iykyk spots. I finally got a chance to try a place I've driven past a million times but never actually went inside, and I'm glad I stopped in instead of just running errands. Ended up finding way more than I expected and honestly could've stayed in there longer just looking around. Definitely worth checking out.

    This is felt like home .. food was made with love your can taste the soul in every bite. The service was like being part of the family. The owner ms Tina was amazing and her daughter Miracle great service and son Ross. Its a to go spot but there r a few sit and eat tables and that feels like home clean and home vibe . I will be back again and again.. thank ms Tina for your love .

    Don't sleep on this place the chef is phenomenal the food was fantastic the family vibe is there and they do good business. I ordered a plate of lamb ribs, turkey tail, mackerel in coconut milk, cornbread luau, fa'i in coconut milk, sapsui and meat pies. All were fantastic the meat pies where new from last time I went their and great add on was great after a warm up in the air fryer. Any time I'm in long beach I'm grabbing something from here.

    Best Samoan food in Southern California, hands down. My team had never tried Samoan food so I decided to order a spread for them! Everything was great and made it early enough to get some Pani Popo. Everything was amazing and I think you gained some new fans of Samoan food which was the whole purpose.

    This spot is a true hidden gem for samoan food in Carson! Food was delicious and you can tell everything is fresh and homemade. Everything on my plate was seasoned to perfection and did not disappoint. Staff was extremely kind with attentive service and the ambiance was inviting with many decorations. Hope to be back soon to try other things on the menu!

    - Poly Grill is Popping this morning like every morning. Top of the Line Samoan Food Spot in the local L.A. and O.C. Area..!

    One of the Best Samoan Food Spots in the Los Angeles and Orange County Area. Their Bakery Goods are Top of the Line as well. They also Sell Fried Pork Skins and my Favorite is the Fried Chicken Skin. If you haven't been You should Definitely stop in and Buy Something So You Can Try Something...!

    I had never tried poly food before so I was excited seeing what was on the menu. Poly is a small take-out spot but packs a BIG punch in terms of taste flavor and just feel-good comfort food. The New Zealand sausage is bomb. I also liked their chop suey, chicken curry, turkey tail and mussels. First time here so I was limited to what I could get. I liked this place so much I came back the next day. It was that good!!This spot is clean and cosey. The workers here are very nice and you can feel the love they put in the food. You just feel welcomed coming here to get great tasting food. I will try their meat pie next time since they run out quick. Thank you to my friend for introducing me to Polynesian food. This place is a gem and I wish there was one just like it near where I live in Anaheim. Thanks Poly. Now I need me a souvenir shirt.

    This is our second time driving out to Poly. Grill &Bakery. Today we picked up some Turkey Tail, sausage. Corned beef, Taro in coconut milk and Sapa Sui. So good we forgot to get a picture. But we also ordered Half moon pies, Palusami, to pick up the next day Once we were there to pick up the items, we also tried the Pani Popo, Panikeke, and the Suafa'i. Can't say enough on how good they each tasted. My husband said each item was just like home cooking and for me it reminded me of visiting of our family gatherings. The location is easy to find. Not to far off the freeway. Once inside look over the prepared food and let them know is what you would like from the prepared food. We were thankful to meet Miracle, she was incredibly helpful and knowledgeable of each item we ordered. Next time you stop in, talk with the staff, let them show you all the choices.

    Poly Grill is da bomb!! Wish they were closer so I can get me some delicious Samoan food. This hidden island gem is located on Carson St right by the 405 freeway. My favorite is the sapasui, povi, and palusami. No other place makes their palusami like Poly Grill!! The type of noodles they use makes the texture of the sapasui delish, and I can't find this noodle at any store!! The povi is so good and pairs extremely well w the creamy palusami. I don't really eat taro and banana but I like the way they make theirs!! Family owned and operated, very friendly and helpful. May be a bit pricey but then again so is everything else!! We've tried other Samoan food between LA, SD, & Riverside and Poly Grill is BY FAR THE BEST!!! They make fresh bread (unsliced) and it's so yummy!! Great half moon pies too!! Don't forget the traditional Anchor butter (imported from New Zealand) bc it's sooooo delish w the fresh warm bread!! Highly recommend if you're craving Samoan food. And I also like coming here bc it's a far drive and I love food ventures!!

    The meat pie was 70% cheese & had meat with one mushroom in the filling. Most meat pies are 90% meat in New Zealand.

    Let me start off by saying the taste of the food is Amazing but my rating is based on everything…read moreelse, which is why I rated what I did. We booked them for my daughter's 5th birthday party. We paid over $1,000 for a party size of 60 people. When we asked if the food was ready because they didn't inform us that it was, the first 10 or so people grabbed their food, they said they ran out of the tortillas needed for the big UCE burrito, mind you this is the main reason we booked them because they're known for this burrito. When I went to get a burrito, that's when I was made aware they had already ran out of the tortillas, this was about 15 to 20 mins into serving time. My husband wasn't happy to hear this so he took it upon himself to go and buy more tortillas in order to make more of these burritos. (They didn't even offer to reimburse him for the inconvenience of this) To top it all off, BJ, the owner, came off really rude and stand offish, while one of his sons was nice and would answer any questions we had even when the questions were directed towards BJ. (who didn't even turn around to acknowledge whomever was speaking to him) Then at the end of the service, they packed everything up and left it on a table inside where the party was being held and didn't let anyone know that they were done and leaving. It's a shame because we really enjoyed their food from past experiences which led us to book them for our event, but we won't be doing it again.

This was at a church and across from CSUDH. A general place to grab and go. Feels: The area we were at is cool It was near a church and a university sooo good vibes. FOOD: Big Uce Burrito (Recommend) Deeeelicious. A bombful of flavors from the longanisa fried rice, teriyaki and char-siu chicken, egg, cheese, spicy mayo and that kick from mango salsa. It's well contained and packed with flavors. I'd recommend this for first-timers. My partner and I shared...we still have leftovers! CUSTOMER SERVICE: Super! Friendly people and communicative as well. They were making more rice and keeping me posted on the wait. TL; DR OVERALL: 4.5 Stars. Excellent! Delicious food and reasonable prices. This is a South Bay gem and something worth trying. I wish this business the best as I hope to try more of their dishes in the future. Tips: * Follow them on IG for accurate dates and locations.

This spot is small, casual in the best way, the kind of place where you walk in stressed from work and walk away knowing the food will comfort you. The moment you step in, you get that "bro, relax" energy. No crazy décor, no weird mood lighting, no host judging your outfit. Just good food, good vibes, and the faint spiritual presence of someone whispering "aloha, braddah." It's the type of place where you can roll in wearing gym shorts, flip‑flops, or your "I woke up late" face and nobody blinks. Service here is like being adopted into a Hawaiian family you didn't know you had. They're friendly without being fake, fast without rushing you, and they actually smile, like real smiles, not the "my manager is watching" kind. They hand you your food like they're handing you a blessing. I swear one plate winked at me. Listen... the food is delish. The kalua pork and beef is so tender it should come with a warning label. The teriyaki chicken tastes like it was marinated in the tears of happy island angels. And the mac salad? Bro... that mac salad could solve arguments, reunite families, and end global beef. Portions are generous, like "I didn't need all this but I'm absolutely finishing it" generous. Miguel C.
