Delicious food! I ordered the beef with chimichurri as a bowl. Very good and beef was tasty sauce has a spicy kick. Lunch special had a fried dumpling and small salad. Great place to grab a quick lunch. Service was prompt. Inside was clean with tables. Looking fwd to trying the other entrees

Steve's Steak Sandwich is absolutely delicious. The steak is juicy, and the chimichurri sauce is the cherry on top. I will definitely be having this for lunch more often. I recommend ordering ahead of time.

With the name The Grillery, I really didn't expect to see Asian food bowls on the menu. We expected a sandwich or burger restaurant and was thrown off by the bottles of soy sauce on the tables. We ordered the beef bulgulgi and the chicken teriyaki bowls. Portion sizes were good with a lot of meat with grilled vegetables over rice and came with sauces, a small side salad, and two gyozas. Though I wish there was a dipping sauce for the gyozas because they were a bit bland. The young lady who was working that day was very sweet. She came by to refill the water cups often too.

Everything is made fresh to order. Lots of love put into the food. I always go with their steak with chimichurri sauce. Hits the spot every time! Get the Steve's Sandwich, it comes with either fries or salad. Great portions with lots of well thought out seasonings that'll satisfy your palate for lunch. Dine in or takeout, you won't be disappointed!

Alpha male salad add chicken

This was one of the best salads I've ever had so I had to post this review. I ordered the Alpha Meal salad and I added chicken for more protein. I also got it spicy. The green aoli dressing is a perfect compliment to the chimmichurri steak marinade. It was kinda pricey around $25 (because of the added chicken), but so worth it. Thanks again Vu!

Bulgogi and Chicken Bento
Lotus S.

4.5! Great little hidden lunch spot. Amazing steve steak sandwich. Paired great with the jalapeno aioli. We also got the combo bento. Bulgogi was delicious and flavorful but chicken was a drier than I would have liked. Ginger dressing for salad was bomb. Will be back again to try the alpha salad and other items on menu. Plenty of parking here!

My work ordered us some food from The Grillery. I think this is the sister restaurant of Teriyaki Grill down in Chula Vista. Anyway, I ordered the Steve Steak Sandwich. That seems to be the go-to item to get. And now I know why. The Steve Steak Sandwich is delicious. The steak is cooked medium rare and the torta bread is toasted to perfection. I really like the chimichurri sauce. Its garlicky and fresh. I feel like if they added arugula or a spring mix, it would complete the sandwich. This is a great place and I'm looking forward to trying more items on the menu.

The Steve's Steak Sandwich This is a flavor-packed sandwich! The steak is super tender and the chimichurri has a good amount of garlic! Has a nice spicy kick to it that helps cut through the oils in the chimichurri, and all wrapped up in a nicely toasted torta! The seasoned fries also just makes it a great sidekick to the sandwich. My personal suggestion? Wish it was bigger because it's so bomb!! Definitely recommend this spot for a quick lunch!

I don't normally leave reviews and I don't normally eat steak sandwiches but this is one of the best I've ever had. Shaved thin it basically dissolves in your mouth. The bread was toasted perfectly and the chimichurri was perfect. Get this sandwich

Oi Fusion in Carmel Mountain is a casual Asian fusion spot with bowls, fries, wings, desserts, and…read morehonestly a menu where everything sounds good. One of my favorite things about this place is how easy it is. You order on the kiosk, grab a seat, and your food usually comes out within like 10-15 minutes. The inside has a lot of seating and even games like Jenga which makes it feel like a fun spot to hang out for lunch. I didn't interact much with service since I used the kiosk, but the worker upfront was really friendly and even brought my takeout to my table. This time I tried the Dynamite Crawfish Bowl and the Dynamite Fries. The bowl comes with crawfish, rice, dynamite sauce, eel sauce, seaweed, sesame seeds, and pickled radish on top. The fries normally come with sweet potato fries but I swapped mine for regular fries because I just wasn't feeling sweet potato that day. The fries were honestly kind of underwhelming. It was basically fries with dynamite sauce and only a few pieces of garlic confit, which was the part I was most excited for. They weren't bad, just really underwhelming. I honestly think the sweet potato fries probably would've worked better with the flavors. The crawfish bowl though was really good. The crawfish had this slight smoky flavor to it like it was lightly torched and they give you a lot in each bite. The rice was fluffy and cooked perfectly and the pickled radish on top helped cut through all the richness from the sauces. Everything worked really well together flavor wise. My only complaint is that halfway through the bowl the flavors started blending together a little too much and it gets boring, but overall it was still super satisfying and filling. Definitely still one of my favorite quick lunch spots in Carmel Mountain and somewhere I'd bring friends because the menu has so many good options. Their dessert menu also sounds insane so I already know I'll be back.

Our eyes were definitely bigger than our stomachs on this visit... but honestly, no regrets…read more We hadn't eaten all day, so we may have gone a little overboard. We ordered the Kimchi & Bacon Fried Rice, a Poke Salmon Bento Box, a Philadelphia Roll, and a Dragon Roll. The fried rice was fantastic, but the kimchi was easily my favorite part. It brought just the right amount of tang and spice that made every bite better. Now for my personal breakthrough... Growing up, I was never much of a seafood person. My partner has been slowly introducing me to sushi, and this dinner felt like another milestone. The Philadelphia Roll confirmed that I'm definitely a salmon fan, and the Dragon Roll introduced me to eel... which turns out I also really like. It's always fun when a meal changes your mind about something you've avoided for years. The atmosphere was relaxed and welcoming, and another huge bonus was simply finding a great restaurant in Poway that stays open later than most places. Sometimes that's exactly what you need after a long day. We definitely ordered more food than we could finish, but that's just another excuse to come back. Looking forward to trying even more of the menu next time.

If you haven't had Japanese BBQ yet, you're missing out!…read more We dropped by for their late night happy hour (after 8:30pm) and got the Value Course for 2. It included a few starters (salad, miso soup, edamame & rice), various BBQ items (6 different cuts of meat & veggies), and was more than filling! During happy hour, this set is $70 ($35 per person). Honestly, quite the steal! You cook your own meats here and the staff checks in periodically. I was quite impressed with the quality of the cuts, portion sizes, and overall hospitality. Super yums! Will be back!

We came here to celebrate our 5-year wedding anniversary, and unfortunately, the experience was…read moreincredibly disappointing. First off the quality of the food was very good. Shortly after being seated, we noticed that our grill wasn't getting hot enough to properly cook our food. We brought it to our server's attention, but she assured us it was working fine. We had shrimp on the grill, which should cook relatively quickly, but it was barely cooking at all. When our server returned, we mentioned again that something wasn't right, and she offered to oil the grill. Unfortunately, that did nothing to resolve the issue. After about 20 minutes of trying to explain that the grill simply wasn't working properly, we finally insisted that something needed to be done and were moved to another table. We thought that would be the end of our issues, but shortly after sitting down, we noticed water dripping from above onto us and our grill. The manager happened to notice my husband looking up at the ceiling and asked what was wrong. When we explained that water was dripping on us, his response was essentially, "Oh yeah, that's condensation from the AC." What was most frustrating was how casually this was brushed off, as though having water drip onto guests and their food while dining was completely normal. No solution was offered, and we spent the remainder of our meal with water continuing to drip on us and onto the grill. We were really looking forward to a special anniversary dinner, but instead spent much of the evening dealing with issues that should have been addressed immediately. Equipment problems happen, and we understand that, but it's how those situations are handled that makes the difference. Unfortunately, the lack of urgency, dismissive responses, and overall handling of the situation left us feeling incredibly disappointed. Definitely not the anniversary experience we had hoped for.

How come no one knows evil jungle?…read more Ok it must be a Hawaiian thing but this is another place in San Diego that doesn't offer evil jungle. But at least they have the other stuff. The family ordered the following: tom yum shrimp, pad see eww beef, garlic chicken wings, and papaya salad. Tom yum was good. Larger chunks of tomatoes than I like but still good. I wish it was more sour but that's my preference. The pad see eww very good. My favorite of all the dishes. Good balance of meat to noodles and with the added red pepper fish sauce just the right amount of kick. Chicken wings were average. Nothing special to me and they didn't have much garlic flavor in my opinion. FYI, there is no stuff chicken wings offered here. Lastly the papaya salad is fresh. It's salad, what do you want me to say :p Overall four stars. The service was friendly, the kitchen was quick, the restaurant is clean and well maintained, and plenty of parking. Just no evil jungle :( M

I love that they have the 2 Batch Soda special flavors, I had the peach and it was great. My friend tried the green tea milk tea, passion fruit tea, and Batch diet cola. I got a bunch of veggies, edamame, cold noodle salad, and the beef stew over rice. The kabocha squash was a little tricky to cook, the enoki mushrooms, cabbage, etc were much easier to deal with, lol. The real star was the wagyu beef. I loved all 3 cuts, and we ordered more of the chuck eye and some pork belly for our extra round. It has spoiled me for normal beef now. The ice cream was a nice extra, I had the black cherry and my friend had the chocolate malt crunch. We each enjoyed our flavors. I don't often spend $60+ on myself for dinner, so it was a nice treat. The staff was very friendly and helpful. We went about 5:15 on a Monday, so it wasn't quite as busy. When we left it was pretty packed, especially seeing as this is the last week fir the restaurant.

I didn't even read the reviews. When I pulled up, I almost drove right past it because it's tucked inside a liquor store. But hidden gems are usually called hidden for a reason. I walked in and asked what their most popular sandwich was. The guy recommended the California Club, which happens to be one of my go to sandwiches anywhere, so I told him to make that and add pickles because let's be honest, you gotta have pickles. Now I'm not gonna sugarcoat it, the guy making the sandwich took a sweet time. I mean almost a solid almost 10 minutes, and at one point I caught myself thinking, "This thing better be incredible." Well... it was incredible. Absolutely worth the wait. Fresh bread, stacked, flavorful, tactical, and one of those sandwiches where after the first bite you immediately stop caring how long it took. In fact, after the baseball game I went back a second time and grabbed a Cobb salad for my wife. Of course I had a few bites as a delivery tax. That thing was tremendous too. When I picture a really good Cobb salad, this is exactly what I want. Packed with egg, bacon, avocado, and just the right amount of blue cheese. Not skimpy at all. The salad also took longer than expected, but honestly I'd much rather wait a few extra minutes for food that's made right instead of rushed garbage. Well done. Easy five stars.

I think the California club was better than the Italian, which is rare for me. Both made with fresh ingredients and both very large subs. Plenty of parking, too. Overall really 4.5 stars but lowered to 4 due to the pricing issue.
