Tucked in Stowe Plaza, The Grillery is a compact weekday‑lunch spot famed for Steve’s Steak Sandwich — a chimichurri‑bright, spicy, generously meaty torta. The menu also offers healthy teriyaki bowls, salmon and salads, but portions and consistency can vary. Service is often slow and understaffed; online ordering and hours have reliability issues, and a reported forced tip selection has frustrated customers. Ideal for nearby office lunches if you call ahead, but limited hours and occasional closures deter visitors from farther away.
Food: 4.5/5 Service: 4/5 Price: $12 17 The Grillery is a small... I guess Asian Fusion restaurant in Stowe Plaza. However, their signature dish (Steve's Steak Sandwich) is strictly Latin American, definitely not Asian in any way. It's honestly a strange menu. Also keep in mind they are only open during weekday lunch hours, and they will be busy due to the large company campuses in the area. Steve's Steak Sandwich Flavorful, great texture, and a little spicy, the steak sandwich here is amazing. A nice helping of medium to medium rare steak, chimichurri sauce, and toasted torta buns make a great sandwich. It's a perfect size for lunch and comes with a side salad or fries. The sides are nothing too special but that's okay. Knucklehead Sandwich Tastes pretty good, though there's something about the bulgolgi that doesn't taste right to me. It's also very messy with the sunnyside up egg inside, so it's not ideal for a work lunch. Banh Mi They used to have Banh Mi, I don't see it on the online menu so maybe they stopped selling it. But anyway it was just okay, not the best Banh Mi in the area though, the local Pho shops offer better ones. Teriyaki Salmon Bowl Pretty plain as a whole, but the teriyaki salmon tastes great. Simple, easy, and healthy lunch. Docked a star for service since their online ordering system feels old and slow, and sometimes when I've tried ordering it just bugs out and doesn't go through. Never eaten in the store so I can't speak for dine in experience, but also the cashier isn't the most welcoming or friendly usually when you walk in. Also limited hours. Overall a great option for lunch if you're in the area, but if you're from out of town it will be hard for you to find time to visit.
Came here for lunch last wednesday only to find out they’re closed indefinitely? wanted to try the good lookin selection too
Alpha salad with extra steak, absolutely the best salad I’ve ever had. I would highly recommend eating here. I will definitely be back!
