Hot Off the Grill

I was looking to get some fast food, but not from a corporate source, and not the famous double-​double domain, delicious though they may be. My grandpappy wanted to go to a corporate chain in the area. I insisted we try someone new.
Hot Off The Grill is new to me but novel it is not. You will find many familiar American food items you can get almost anywhere American and also pseudo-​Mexican food, a curious juxtaposition, but it has been done before.
Sigh. The food was the least satisfying part. I had a spicy chicken sandwich… And it was not remotely spicy, in the broadest sense of the word. The fries were plentiful, at least. I tried the jalapeño poppers, they were decent but a little hard. They tasted of déjà vu. My grandfather had the club sandwich. It looked good enough, but he didn’t enjoy it and his fries came tepid.
The background music is a bunch of pop predating when current high school juniors were born by a couple decades or more. Oldies and not very interesting.
When we selected our table, we came to something that looked reasonably clean from a distance but when I sat down I happened to run my hand across a sticky spot on the table, ech, I hadn’t noticed it somehow. I was uncomfortable until I had cleaned my hand and wiped the table. But you know, it happens. Speaking of stickies, you may lose a shoe when you go to fill up your low-​syrup fountain drink.
All of this for more than what the corporate chains charge you. I don’t know how their production costs exorbitantly, but I’m not buying it again. I would rather have more unique food for their prices or have the same items for less quantity and better quality.

Just finished eating there. Had a pastrami sandwich that was so nasty. The soaked pastrami in chorizo. So unateable the lady didn’t say anything when I said it was nasty.

Horrible. My to go order is wrong. I made sure to carefully say what I wanted and repeat myself. I don’t understand why it’s to hard to do what the customer asked. I won’t go back. The foods not even that great. I asked for well done onion rings. Nope I guess they can’t cook them a little longer. Maybe they were in a hurry cause they were closing in an hr n didn’t want to stay late. Very unhappy with this place

They have the best Huevos Rancheros! The sauce is spicy and amazing! All of their other
food is good too… the Club Sandwich is also great!

Great place. Very good food with large portions at a very low cost. Tables tend to need cleaning.

Breakfast burritos, club sandwiches, and cheeseburgers are awesome here!
Service is good!
Their salsa is really good, especially on an egg white and cheese breakfast burrito. That’s my favorite.

OMG, the staff here just keeps getting worse and worse. The food is ok, fast food burgers etc a cut above Jack in the Box, but the staff is horrendous. Absolutely no training on how to deal with customers. And the guy that answers the phone is almost illiterate! I think I’ll just go to Jack in the Box or Burger King next time I’m craving a fast food burger. Food isn’t quite a good, but at least they know how to take an order and talk to customers.

Whenever I’m in the area this is a must to eat here. The charbroiled chicken salad is my favorite and they also make great breakfast meals as well!

Great breakfast specials, fast and friendly. They have table service on the weekends and usually go most sundays before church. Food is pretty good for the most part, but pretty much typical diner fare.

Hot Off The Grill has a really contemporary modern look and feel. The presentation of the restaurant and their menu items is superb. The location featured enough seating.
The food was quite good, I really enjoyed the colossus burger which featured pastrami over a cheesed hamburger patty. The chili cheese fries were quite simply the best I have had.
If there is one thing that would draw me back to Hot Off The Grill it would be the chili cheese fries.
The reason I knocked two stars:
Price (I attached my receipt and photos of our order for review). It was $ 7 each kids meal, some prices higher depending on order. The two kids meals cost more than my wife’s and I. Felt that was weird.
Single Unisex Restroom.

Great quality food and the portions are awesome. You cannot beat the price, quality, and portions. Very friendly staff and is always welcoming. Been coming here with family for the last couple of years and we love it. There burgers, tacos, fries, and onion rings are tasty. We live in Los Angeles and you cannot get the same amount of food and pricing that is even close to comparing and trust me I have gone to many burger joints in Los Angeles. I’m l. a it more expensive and they give you less of everything. Totally recommend this place if you are craving great burger and fries!

This place is delicious. BUT they don’t wash their hands. Seen the cook emptying the trash then after he went straight to the food. Whyyyy?! Makes me so mad.

I stopped-​in here a couple of weeks ago and was pleasantly surprised to find the place was empty at 8:00 on a Sunday morning. I ordered a Pancake combo which I think was $ 5 or so. The food came-​out quickly, it was normal fast-​food fare but tasted good and the portions were generous. I’d stop-​in here again if I’m in the area again.

Got here and at 6:30pm on a Friday it is completely empty. Should have Told me right there that something was wrong. Good grilled cheese but awful burger. So thin you could see right through it. Fried zucchini? Unbelievably bad. Soggy zucchini inside nasty frozen breading. Their breakfast was really good and cheap and that’s why I’ll give 3 stars, but the rest? Find somewhere else.

Brenda is so sweet and great customer service, she always has a big smile. Great heart. Food is always good. This is like a dinner but better prices and more selection. Nachos are good and will fill you up. Yum

HOG is great for breakfast & lunch. Staff are great, friendly, and always very attentive. My favorite is the egg white chicken omelet with fruit. Nice healthy option to start my morning. This HOG is a small restaurant but there are indoor and outdoor seating. The staff does a great job of keeping the place clean.

Hot Off the Grill is not your parents fast food place. It’s family friendly with lots of items on the menu. It offers a change of pace if you’re in the mood for fast food but, you want a break from the larger chains.
We’ve been here many times for breakfast and have never been disappointed. The portions are large and prices are reasonable. Today I ordered chorizo eggs, beans, hash browns with tortillas ($ 6.25). My wife had the breakfast special of 3-​eggs, 4-​sausage, hash browns and toast ($ 5.79). Especially good are the breakfast burritos. My daughter chose a mixed burrito, 3-​eggs with bacon, ham and sausage and potatoes with cheese ($ 6.20). Everything was fresh and taste great.
This is basically a short order grill. Don’t expect fancy or gourmet, just good food, large portions, attentive friendly servers and fair prices. Great coffee too!

This place is HORRENDOUS. They have terrible customer service, greasy, awfully prepared food and false advertising. I ordered a steak sandwich special because it said it comes with fries AND onion rings, zucchini, AND salad with a drink for 7.99. It says it on their hand out menu. I was thrown off when they asked fries or salad and I again pointed to what they said on the menu. Little did I know I would be walking out with a bag of undercooked fries, and a rubber sandwich. Incredibly disappointing and a RIP OFF.
I’ve given this place several tries and tried many food items, but overall they just don’t cut it. They’re disgusting, the staff are terrible at communicating and they don’t answer their phones for call ins. Don’t come here.

Hot Off The Grill is a good alternative to Denny’s. They offer much of the same classic American diner food, but also have a «South of the Border» menu offering Mexican food.
Pros: Huge menu, reasonable prices (especially the combos), open long hours, friendly staff
Cons: Does not serve breakfast all day

[STAR RATING FOR CUSTOMER SERVICE ONLY]
I ordered a side of fried zucchini (decent, good enough for two hungry people) and a pastrami sandwich (three stars when fresh, was kind of dry on my visit).
Here is where they lost me. In the midst of my fried zucchini, was a LARGE METAL STAPLE from the bag the frozen zucchini was kept in (regular STAPLE x 1000).
Imagine if the LARGE METAL STAPLE was embedded in one of the zucchini and I ate it? I would’ve had internal bleeding like I got punched by Mike Tyson in the stomach with lead-​filled 40 oz. gloves for one hour in the same spot without protecting myself.
This is truly unacceptable service. I’m a pretty lenient guy when it comes to things in my food (hair = protein), but if I wanted to buy a LARGE METAL STAPLE, I would just go to Staples.
[note to future patrons] Please bring a LARGE STAPLE remover on your visit just in case. To be 100% sure, bring a metal detector set-​up to detect COPPER STAPLES.
[note to manager] Tell your employees to get their $hit together. Their attention-​to-​detail percentage is lower than the percentage of people in the United States with blood type AB (4%).
[random notes] The STAPLE food of southern Africa is maize (corn), and the STAPLES Center opened up on October 17, 1999.
