I wish I would have checked Yelp like I normally do prior to going to Selena's Grill. I usually do, but we were doing some shopping at Lowe's (next door practically) and we decided to give this place a shot. Here's our experience on a nutshell. My family and I went for lunch on Sunday. We were the only customers in the restaurant, which immediately raise a red flag but didn't walk out. 1. Customer Service: We were greeted by the only staff there, she was also our waitress. She was cold and gave us the impression that we were bothering her with our presence. My mother had a question about an item on the menu...again cold, acted like her question was a bother (like we should know). 2. Atmosphere: It was OK...if you want to go watch a soccer game and have beer. I saw Happy Hour specials signs which were appealing for that type of thing. 3. Food: My kids ordered the mini-burritos, they got this HUGE burritos Chiptle size...we asked the waitress if that is a "mini", she said yes. They were all rice, not very flavorful at all (Chipotle far superior). My dish, my wife's dish and my mom's dish were not any better, too salty, didn't look fresh, didn't taste fresh, and yes still a cold waitress that seemed to be more annoyed every time we asked her questions. Keep long story short, this was our worst lunch experience ever! And to top it all off, my 4 year old daughter and wife, got FOOD POISING!!! STAY AWAY!! read more

I came to this place for lunch on Friday the 20th around 12:30-1. The moment I walked in with my co worker the bartender who ended up being our waitress looked at us as if she didn't want us there. As if we were going to interrupt her. With this in mind i thought maybe she had a bad day. she walked over to our table and doesn't even introduce herself. So I tried to interact with her. I asked how she was doing and even asked what she would recommend from the menu. All she gave was simple answers. Not helpful at all. Then after we placed our order, she started having a conversation with a guy at the bar. Our table was not too far from the bar we were able to hear the whole thing. She was cursing and going off about her relationship. All we wanted was to have a peaceful lunch and we got the total opposite. read more

DO NOT EAT HERE! This restaurant was also known as La Luna, located at the same address as Restaurant Abi Azteca Grill and Bar. From the outside we saw signs that this place did way too much, like subs, Mexican, and salads. When we walked in the restaurant was empty and there were a few people at the bar. The menu had lots of different cuisines like Italian, El Salvadorian, Mexican, subs, and American food. My wife ordered the Mexican burritos which came out with canned beans and rice not wrapped like a burrito with cold slices of American cheese on top of each burrito. My wife sent it back and the waiter said he would fix her the other Mexican burritos. I finished my fajitas, which were not very good. The menu also said there food was made fresh, I highly doubt it. The rice and beans brought out with my food were from a can an bag and tasted terrible. My stomach was upset the next day. I highly recommend that you pass this restaurant up and go down the street to El Paso Mexican Restaurant. read more

Cute little place. Food was a wee bit oily, but it felt like home made. Jeannette L.'s review was spot on... Hole in the wall but DELICIOUS! I will definitely return. read more

I'm being generous with my rating only b/c my husband's food was ok. But my first impression of this restaurant was not good. I went ahead of my husband who was at Lowe's and sat down. I had to get the waitress attention to tell her we would be 2 for lunch. She never returned to give me even a glass of water and when I called her over and said, can I at least have a glass of water while I wait, she snapped at me that I did not ask for one! Really! When my husband did arrive it was a long time between when we ordered until we got our food. My food was OK but not as fresh as I would have like for the Papua I was looking forward to. It's not a terrible place but I am not returning. read more

Selena's Grill has a seemingly authentic, varied menu, with a few "American" sandwiches and apps thrown in for good measure. The decor is simple, and half the restaurant is technically a bar, but the quality of the food didn't really measure up. The chicharones were overcooked and very hard and dry, which is a shame because the yucca fries were delicious and perfectly crisp. The lomo saltado was good but not great, and made better with the addition of hot sauce. The fried calamari appetizer was your typical fare, served with a homemade marinara and a wedge of lime. I was so disappointed by the chicharones and the slow service, it pretty much spoiled the meal for me. On the plus side, there is ample parking and their portions are generous if you find something you like on the menu. read more

Looks like this is a new latin joint in Woodbridge. There are two entrances, one for the bar side which the advertise that they play football games while the other is the diner. There's a huge window between the two rooms. I wasn't entirely impressed by the decor but I really like their pork pupusas. Pupusas are traditional Salvadoran dish made of a thick corn tortilla stuffed with bean, cheese, pork, beef or chicken. We ordered 5 pupusas, bean and cheese, pork and cheese and beef and cheese but the pork and cheese is the best while the bean and cheese is decent but I did not like the beef and cheese at all. It didn't have much flavor and was pretty dry. It came with pickled cabbage (curtido) and a tomato sauce for dipping. I looked at the rest of the menu and I think it was a big pricy (14+dish) for what the place looked like. It was actually latin and american food. I'm not entirely impressed with the whole menu so I did not order anything else. read more

My wife, daughter and I went here three nights ago. I'm really glad we didn't check Yelp beforehand, because our experience was outstanding. The food was outstanding; authentic Mexican. You can tell that the meat in the dishes is given a lot of attention. We got a couple standard chicken quesadillas and the beef burrito. The beef was more like steak, which was a nice surprise. Service was prompt and nice. The place was empty, but it was snowing, so that might explain that. Mexican beers were available and were ice cold and cost $3.75. Happy hour runs til 8pm M-F. We got two beers. Prices are very reasonable ($8-10 for a normal entree like we got, although larger ones are available at about $14.) Judging by other reviews, I can only assume that this place has gotten a new cook/manager/owner or something recently, since our trip was significantly better than what these other reviews show. We will be back, for sure. Eric read more

Decided to walk in, did not know what to expect, but the food was good. My husband ordered a Sopa De Mondongo, my mother ordered 2 chicken tamales and 2 pupusas, while i ordered a steak and cheese sub. My husband is really picky, but the soup was great according to him. The tamales were huge and very delicious, my mother was not able to finish her food since she though the tamales would be smaller, way smaller. We've gone there every now and then. Really nice, i do not care much for the decor, but the food was great. The service is good, our waitresses have been nice, good with our orders. read more

Hole in the wall. Delicous. It was a bit oily, but good food and great! service

So this place is quaint, I wouldn't consider the service excellent but our waitress was nice. I was brought the wrong dish twice, the miscommunication was odd because I am fluent in both tongues understood in this establishment but either way they did attempt to fix the issues. My husband's dish was brought out correct the first try. The food was good - not excellent. I would say definitely try this place, it won't rock your socks off but it's suitable for a quick bite. read more

Please stay away from this place. I paid an expensive $25 for two of the most disgusting looking food I've seen. I ordered "breakfast selena". Supposedly it comes with rice as stated in their online menu but they didn't add it to the plates. The fried plantains looked like charcoal. The eggs were plain and tasteless. The refried beans looked like cat poop. After calling the business to complain, we didn't even get a sorry or offered another dish. In fact, they lady got an attitude and hung up. Please don't waste your money at this tired and abandoned establishment!!!! read more

It's always scary to walk into a place and it's practically empty but I wanted to give it a chance. Sometimes a hole in the wall diner style place can have awesome food, but not this place. I had the Fried Chicken and Waffle- YUCK! The chicken was not freshly fried and I suspect came out of a bag of unseasoned frozen fried chicken. The waffle was rubbery and I had to ask for butter. My friend had two over easy eggs, scrapple, homefries and toast. He said the eggs and homefries had barely any seasoning and eating the scrapple was like a tire. Maybe the pupusas would've been better, but who gets breakfast food wrong?! Never again.... read more

Not sure how authentic all the negative reviews are. I've been to this place several times, and the food rocks. Love the fried calamari & the quesadillas. read more

I got chicken and waffles and my chicken wasn't cooked all the way and my bf's steak was wayyyyy to rare smh. My bf asked what kind of salad they had and the waitress gave him a confusing look smh. Won't be returning here agin. I'll pass read more

Good food and good prices for the area. I had my birthday dinner there and the owners made it special and a bit fancier. yes the decor is dated but the fajitas and guac over come it. read more

The steak is one of the best I've had and the waffles too! I come here whenever I'm visiting Woodbridge. I haven't had a chance to try most of their menu yet but I'll get there. Great waiting staff too. read more

RUN DO NOT WALK. Walked in, waited to be greeted for five minutes. Hispanic female not looking happy to see two white patrons. Restaurant was empty except for two Hispanic couples. Very unhappy waitress took our order for drinks, appetizers and burritos. I showed her a valid coupon for buy one get one free burrito lunch or dinner from the very popular Attractions book for Prince William. She looked at the coupon as if she had never seen one. Took the order brought drinks then came back and said, "manager not take." I asked why and she smugly sighed and said nothing, stood there looking stupid. I said we are leaving then because every reputable restaurant takes Attractions coupons since the restaurant has a contract with them to have their coupons in the Attractions book. I left and quickly called and reported them to Attractions. This restaurant is very questionable in my book and if the manager is this sketchy I certainly wouldnt trust their food quality nor food safety. Been in the restaurant business for 33 years and Selenas is not a place I would recommend. read more

My mother, little brother, and I walked by this restaurant and was intrigued by the menu that was posted on the window. We then walked in the restaurant and immediately got a bad vibe. For one, there was barely anybody in the restaurant which was a big red flag. Second there was no one to greet or seat us. After a couple of minutes of looking around, I decided to walk into the bar of the restaurant to get a hold of a waitresses's attention to be seated and to take our order, which is obviously really bad because a customer shouldn't have to come to the waiter. We, as in my mother and little brother and I, chose a random seat to sit and was then handed a menu. The waiter, then walked off after handing us the menus. We were not greeted, or offered a drink. We were "greeted" with stank faces that seemed as though was stemmed from us entering the restaurant. As civil african american patrons, we were a little confused. Most, actually all restaurants usually/are supposed to ask you what drink you'd like while they wait for you to decide what you want to eat off of the menu. The waitress then went to a hispanic couple that came AFTER us and was catering to them better. They even got their food BEFORE us. We had to catch the waitresses's attention to place our order.We asked what would she recommend off of the menu and said "idk, it's what you want." Rude. My mother had went off to look at something at another store around Selena's Grill. By the time she had left/came back we were still waiting for an abundance amount of time for our food to be served. Once receiving our food, we noticed something was off. My little brother ordered a chicken quesadilla that didn't have enough chicken in it, filled with a bunch of cheese that a normal cheese lover wouldn't like. My order, the Carne Asada was a huge piece of steak that was made up of 90% straight fat and didn't look appealing at ALL. After cutting out the pieces of fat from the steak, we notified the waitress about all the fat that made up the steak and just looked at it and said oh. Stood there looking stupid and then walked away. Assuming she'd notify the chef or offer to take it back or something we waited for a couple of minutes. Fed up with the service, we notified her to get the check. She ALSO took her time talking to another waitress that we weren't to fond of because of her lack of waitress skills as well. I have never in my life been flabbergasted and baffled at such terrible customer service and poor food. I will forever have regretted spending my money on shitty, high priced food and terrible customer service. I am in utter shock as to how this place hasn't gone out of business. KYS read more
