Food is delicious Would help if they'd update their google or yelp page to reflect more accurate open times. States they close at 7 but apparently they close at 6 on certain days when I called read more

Unsure if this place is under new management or ownership, but the laughable sandwich I just received warranted a poor review. That is literally all the chicken that was in the sandwich for a, ehemm, ehemm, CHICKEN sandwich. First time this has ever happened, as the sandwich normally had an actual breast of chicken in it, so they must just be out. Not ok. read more

Via Door Dash - got their version of a patty melt; a carnivore. Disappointing! The burger looked, tasted and had the texture of a very compressed, low quality frozen patty. Yuck! The chicken Caesar salad was edible. This will NOT happen ever again. read more

Scrumptious! It was my first time visit and I will be coming back! I ordered the Lobster Grilled Cheese Combo with Sweet Potato Tots. The cashier was very helpful and patient given my obvious ALS disabilities, he even offered to open my can of soda. The restaurant was very clean and super cute. Lovely environment, thank you for making me feel at home. #handicapapproved #yummy #irvine read more

Jared and Euler were great with customer service. They helped me with my substitutions for my diet and the food looked really good. The food tasted even better after. Thank you so much! read more

I attempted to order food online and the staff placed me on hold for 5 minutes and did not pick up the phone after calling them 3-4 times. I went to the restaurant in person to just pick it up cause i was craving and there was nobody there and the staff were just sitting in the back doing nothing. read more

this place tastes so good and the service is amazing! Jared who helped me out was so friendly and helpful, he went above and beyond to make sure my experience was unique and comfortable! read more

Ordered the avocado grilled cheese and tomato soup. The cheese on my sandwich didn't seem to be fully melted but the sandwich still tasted good and had a balance of veggie, meat, and sauce. The bread was also perfectly crunchy. The tomato soup was also a good complement to the sandwich but it was unexpectedly spicy that it burned my tongue and mouth . I wasn't aware that the soup was supposed to be spicy and I feel like it was a mistake... read more

Great sandwiches easy online order. Friendly serviced. Clean place to get fast food

Nice little grilled cheese place! Got the Philly cheese steak grilled cheese with a side of tomato soup and mac and cheese. Everything is fresh and hot.

Tried the Pastrami grilled cheese today. It was good don't get me wrong, but the value just isn't there. Almost $18 after tax () and you don't get a lot of cheese or pastrami Comparing to like, the Hat's Pastrami Dip or Burger, this sandwich is just incredibly overpriced. read more

Only 1 employee in the whole store. Food takes about 25-35 minutes to make every time I come here.

This is one of my favorite food places. The chicken pesto grilled cheese is great, and their sides like the fries and mac'n'cheese have a lot of flavor. They have a lot of options to build your own sandwich too. Would definitely recommend to someone looking for something casual to eat. The center is convenient too, with lots of outside seating. read more

one of our favorite places to go for breakfast and lunch! the food comes out quickly and always tastes incredible. the service is great and they are always willing to fit accommodations and special requests. the avocado grilled cheese is a real standout and the chipotle aioli is a great sauce to add to any dish/ sandwich. We have been served by Alexis many times, he never disappoints and very friendly. overall Grater's does an excellent job of taking a classic dish and elevating it to an exceptional dining option. read more

Greater Grilled cheese is my go to when im in the area. They have delicious food always hits the spot you may think its just a grilled cheese but you have never had a grilled cheese like the ones here. Every time I come in whether it be at noon or evening the service is great which is a plus. thank you Alexis for the quick and friendly service today. read more

I love cheese and this place has delicious grilled cheese sandwiches. I ordered the chicken pesto and it was delicious. The slices of the bread is bigger than grocery bread and it's great. Bread was perfectly grilled with melted cheese and good amount of chicken. Pomme frites (fries) were good with cheese sprinkled on top and had a slight cinnamon taste. Quantity and quality of food was on point. I really want to come back to try the other grilled cheese sandwiches. Great place for large groups where everyone can order individually and find a place to sit, either inside or outside. read more

Eulier is the best. Great service and very friendly. Will be back here again very soon

I will give this place a 10/10. I read the comments and seen everyone's views but I just left. This place wasn't packed but people were ordering . It's sad people complain about parking and it's other near by restaurants which is pretty dumb to mention parking! The staff was friendly I was torn between the buffalo chicken sandwich and the carnivore she suggested the Nashville hot grilled cheese and it was fire! It was hot along with my fries and the cheese pulll was pulling, it was crunchy eve try thing about it was good. The place is clean. I ordered fries and they were hot .. don't forget to try the ketchup it's pretty good I'm glad I didn't pass it up... read more

It was my first time here, and I ordered the mac & cheese. I asked for an extra fork since I was sharing, and they told me it would be $.50--seriously? That just rubbed me the wrong way. On top of that, the service was terrible. Definitely not worth my time, and I won't be coming back. read more

Delicious sandwich and Denna wake kinds. First time oder food here. I will be come back soon. read more

Amazing lobster grilled cheese‍! Great customer service from Alexis as well definitely recommend this place.

Kind of a letdown. First of all, we showed up at 7:25 and their hours say that they are open until 8:00. The employees already were sweeping and had all of the chairs flipped upside down on the tables. They seemed reluctant to want to serve us. We ordered a couple of items. Mac and cheese was bland. My grilled cheese sandwich was heavily doused in barbecue sauce and it kind of lessened the flavor of the whole thing. The side of sweet potato fries was the smallest side of fries I've ever gotten anywhere. I noticed that at 7:40 p.m. the employees turned the lights off. They were itching to have an early night. Anyway, all the stuff mostly tasted fine, but it was just kind of off-putting... we felt like we were not wanted at this establishment. read more

Food was really nice and not too busy as well. Alexis and Frank were sweet and looked like they were enjoying their job. I felt welcomed and the place's entire vibe drew me in :) read more

Ordering took forever, despite a very modest line. Once I reached the front of the line, the guy told me I could order from the digital kiosk, which I did. Thirty minutes later, I'm still waiting for my food. Not sure what's going on, but I'm not coming back even if the food is amazing (which I'm not expecting at this point)... read more

First time here. Ordered the avo grilled cheese and the original grilled cheese sandwiches to share with the fam. The bread was toasted/grilled to perfection. The original grilled cheese sandwich was delicious! The avo grilled cheese also came with bacon, so my sister said it was a bit on the heavier and saltier side. But if that's the taste combo you like, then I'm sure you'll love it. I wanted to try their lobster items, but deferred as I'm sure my stomach wouldn't have permitted such at the time! It was pretty good overall, but not the best I've had. The Black Sheep eatery at the Anaheim Packing District is better in my opinion, for comparison sakes, especially for the price. BUT, this place is good too, so definitely give it a try if you're craving something homey and comforting. Plus, the interior decór was pretty cute. Customer srvice was average. read more

Came to this center to eat somewhere else which happened to be closed. We decided to walk around and try something new. We walked to the counter and were immediately greeted. My first question was if they had gluten free bread for my husband, and they do!! This is a huge deal!! I ordered the avocado grilled cheese and my husband got the Philly grilled cheese on gluten free bread. We ordered carne asada fries to share. The sandwiches were so amazingly delicious. I couldn't tell you the last time I had a grilled cheese. The tomato and avocado were perfect complements to the cheesy goodness. My husband was surprised how good the gluten free bread was. We both enjoyed the fries. Looking forward to returning! read more

Great food. Great service. Alexis was helpful and friendly. Definitely will be back..

Good friendly service. Clean & modern spot. Kids loved the Smoked BBQ Burger & Mac & Cheese. I enjoyed the Philly Cheese melt. The cole slaw was a miss and too creamy for my taste. My son already asked to come back the next day. Thanks to the cousins who look like twins... you know who you are! Well done gents! read more

I live by this plaza and I am trying out all the restaurants in this plaza because it'a just convenient. I was time to finally try this place out. I ordered the carne asada fries, tomato basil soup and the basic grilled cheese. I really enjoyed the carne asada fries. I mean it's not carne asada fries from SD (iykyk) but like not bad. It would help with the cravings. The tomato basil soup was okay...not a fan by itself. But when you dip the grilled cheese in it, it was definitely better! I probably wouldn't get the soup by itself it doesn't taste like tomato basil to me. The grilled cheese sandwich was bomb! I definitely would wanna try the other options. It's a small little spot with some seating inside but there's loads of seating outside. There is lots of parking but try to avoid the lunch break period because this plaza gets packed. read more

My coworker and I met up after work to grab a bite. There wasn't as much people so we were hoping the Lobster Grilled Cheese would be available. Sadly it wasn't and they ran out for the day. Food: +Chicken Pesto Grilled Cheese: I'm a big pesto fan so I expected for this to have a burst of pesto flavor. However, it was lacking flavor. I highly suggest to add extra pesto aioli on the side so you can dip before each bite. The chicken was juicy and I like how the cheese was very melty. Don't forget to check in so you can get a free side of pommes fries. I really wish the fries had a stronger truffle flavor to it since I barely tasted the truffle. However, the fries were so crispy!! I'll be sure to come back and give this place another try! I def want to try their mac n cheese option. read more

We checked out Grater on a Saturday afternoon. Originally was going to check out another place nearby but it was packed, but glad we chose Grater! The menu is extensive and everything looked so good we didn't know what to chose! We got the lobster grilled cheese which was $13.99 I believe which is pretty good price and the Nashville hot chicken sandwich. I liked the lobster grilled cheese. It was flavorful (a bit too spicy for my taste, i think it was the chipotle) and had plenty of lobster bites. Would want to come back and try other things on the menu! read more
