Reviews
Food: I have had several dishes in the past at Gerry’s Grill and as a lover of pork this is a great place to fulfill that love. We did not have the Crispy Pata that I like from Gerry’s but I highly suggest. For starters the pork Sinigang had a great tamarin flavor with large chunks of pork, okra, daikon radish, chilis, and string beans to make a delicious soup. I did get my standard Sizzling Sisig which is a staple when I come to Gerry’s that is even tastier after you mix the egg into the sizzling pan it fries up into the pork mixture. The pork BBQ (which is really grilled pork… I am sorry but you can’t call it BBQ without sticking it into a smoker for some hours) was tasty and charred to give that flame grilled flavor. The Inihaw na Liempo (Pork belly) was grilled to its bacon adjacent perfection. The Pinakbet (Filipino vegetables mixed with shrimp paste) was really enjoyed by my family but not me because of the shrimp paste. Also make sure to order your garlic rice to complement all your savory dishes.
Service: The wait staff is busy and their service areas are large. They will need to be flagged down for other items, your check, and water refills.
Ambiance: Gerry’s is loud with a band on a Friday night so get your club ear resistance ready. The restaurant is a large dining area that can serve a lot of people. Big as in if you yell out “Tita” during a quiet moment you will get a hundred heads turning your way… that kind of big. The bathrooms are also high volume but seem to be serviced okay.
Our most recent visit was for lunch, celebrating a family event. Since we had a large party and no reservations, we added our group to the electronic waitlist upon arrival. Surprisingly, we only waited 15-20 minutes for our table to be ready.
FOOD:
The food at Gerry’s is average to good. They offer many of the classic Filipino dishes and drinks. It’s best to come with a group to share multiple dishes family style. A few of our recent favorites at Gerry’s are the lumpia, crispy pata, beef kare-kare, sizzling pork sisig, inahaw na pusit (grilled squid), garlic rice, grilled tuna collar, and salmon sinagang. I could be nitpicky about a few dishes, but it was all satisfying.
We didn’t get dessert this time since everyone was stuffed from the entrées, but I recommend the Halo Halo. Next time, I won’t pass it up.
VIBE/SERVICE:
The dining area is spacious and has plenty of tables and bar areas, but the noise level can be moderate to high. The vibe is generally chill, and live music entertainment is performed on Friday and Saturday evenings. Check their Facebook for event calendars. The website has a limited amount of information at this time.
Our server and the staff were good. We received most of our orders promptly, and they were attentive throughout the meal. It’s incredible how fast the staff moves around the restaurant.
I figured it’s gotta be good if she recommends it.
So glad I went and cannot wait to take my hubby and kids.
It was delicious!
