Review Grill N Chill - Ernakulam

Devika
The restaurant offers commendable customer service and maintains an acceptable level of cleanliness and hygiene. The flavors of the dishes are exceptional, and the portions are satisfyingly generous. Moreover, the affordability of the menu is particularly impressive.

Been buying from here for more than 3 years now . Overall good food . Not saying evrything is super delicious. But nothing would disappoint you . Alfahams are good but a bit dry. Noodles are good . Fried rices are good . Porota and their different Curries are good . Shawarmas are good . Didn't like the mandhi though.

Shawarma wrapped in kubos tasted really good. Very little veggies used, lots of chicken and priced super economical

Most varieties of Mandis are available here at reasonable rates. Chicken shawarma and shawai are good and recommended. I didn't like the chicken noodles here. Even though it is open till 12 am most of the food gets over by 10 pm. Still those who want to fill their stomach late at night can get noodles, fried rice etc. Parking is a serious issue here.

Tasty delicious beef shawarma 🌯 An Excellent Special Beef Shawarma which wrapped in Rumali Roti gives us a mouth watering for sure , As you know the grilled & sliced beef from the shawarma stand which spreads into the hot rumali roti and later the roti stuffed & layered with chopped onions , green chilli 🌶 , french Fry’s 🍟 , tomatoes 🍅 and the final filling up with mayonnaise. For an option, if you are more in love with cheese 🧀 Add on Cheese which costs only Rs 20/- extra , Must try this tasty roll in town and if you are near by pachalam just give a .... Boom 💥

Loved it. Affordable. Half Alfham + 5 Kuboos + Red chutney + Mayonnaise + Salads = Around Rs.230/-

Tasty food. Affordable prices

The shop is closed temporarily. Very delicious food at cheap rates. You can get a plate of shawarma for 100₹. It was very much delicious. It is also having good quantity. No parking available. You can park your bikes at the roadside. Paytm accepted.

Wonderful food. First time tried the Manjali Biryani and must say, it was a treat to my taste buds. We missed the chicken with rice first coz we were a bit late and had to enjoy only the rice and chicken curry remains but the owner ensured we weren't disappointed and offered us one plate of chicken and voila... What an amazing taste and make of the chicken curry. Wonderful experience Must visit if you're in Ernakulam

Their Rumalo Shawarma Rolls is must try item💯 Prices are affordable. Recommendable destination for Arabic cuisines✨ The only problem i felt is that there is no parking facilities..

A small but nice restaurant at Pachalam, that serves variety of Arabic dishes. Years ago when the place opened it was solely managed by the owner and another employee who assisted him. Though they still operate out of the same small place, they have gone leaps far in the number of items served and also staff members. The menu now includes Al-fahm in various marinades and mixes, chicken wings. The lasted addition to the menu is Beef Shawarma. Both chicken and beef Shawarmas come wrapped in Khuboos as well as Rumali Roti.

We tried the gunboat sundae ice cream, chicken burger, grilled chicken Mexican wrap, the barbeque chicken platter and mocktails. The chicken is always juicy and succulent. The Sundae was very well presented.... Large enough to fill 5 bellys easily. The Ambience is great. Very chilled and peaceful. The staff is also extremely polite. This is definitely a must visit.

No words about this Shawarma I love this place also Good and Hygiene Thank you Thanks alottt Grill n chill

Just want to say firstly the food is fantastic just mouth watering, but the staff is the main issue not interactive nor they give a damn about the customer. They he was behaving itself just put me off not only to my table I’m talking about the Local crowd, if the customer is a foreigner then he or she gets all the attention needed but that’s not how you treat customer. I’m very Disappointed!!

Sooryajith Rajesh

A quiet place in the middle of a busy street .. a small cafe with limited seats .. provides good food .. a good place to hangout with friends !! .. their Arabic rice is a must try .. it's not like manthi rice .. but seems similar
Anija
This outlet located in Marine drive serves some really good shawarma. They have some cute little wooden seating and the decore is nice and simple. <br/><br/>We ordered the Arabic plate shawarma and it was super yummm. Also ordered the blue mojito and the galaxy shake. The shake had huge peices of ice in it which was very unappealing.<br/><br/>Would definitely go back for the shawarmas but skip on the drinks.
Edwin George
This is a awesome restaurant in kochi and the BBQs are delicious, versatile and worth of money. I have tried their Pepper / Arabian / Italian BBQs.. I strongly recommend for all..!

I write this to warn about this restaurant as a tip for those book online deliveries.<br/><br/>Last day I booked Shawarma Plate from Grill N Chill Marine Drive... I regularly buy from there and I am quite impressed with food taste as well as hygiene packing. I regularly buy from them thro' Zomato.<br/>So this review is NOT about their food quality, taste or packing, rather about the service standards and attitude of the staff.<br/><br/>Last day I brought a plate of Shawarma along with 5 pieces of Kubbos separately. It was a cash on the delivery (COD) order. After booking, 10 mins later, a staff from the restaurant called me citing that they ran out Kubbos. I told to cancel the Kubbos and while asked them to deliver the shawarma plate. I specifically asked then to make it reflect in the billing too and they said okay.<br/><br/>But when the delivery boy came, the bill was showing with 5 extra Kubbos, though they didn't serve.<br/><br/>I called the restaurant and the staff rudely said, it's not their matter and asked me to contact Zomato. They cut the phone without assisting me on what should I do.<br/><br/>I called Zomato call center and they said they were helpless as it was COD. Either they asked me to cancel the delivery (which means I have to return back the meal) or pay the amount shown which includes an item which I didn't get. They said they can help only if it was an Online payment.<br/><br/>It was me and that poor delivery boy got caught in between... I said to zomato call center agent that I won't pay extra amount nor return the delivered product by cancelling it. The poor delivery guy lost his commission completely because of the irresponsible restaurant and unresponsive Zomato.<br/><br/>I write this as an example case. The service level in Grill and Chill is pathetic even though the food is good. Most of the staff don't know how to address their customers or their concerns.<br/> Most of them work as if they are offering a courtesy to us. I have been to their restaurant, a couple of times and I always have seen the horrible attitude of the waiters.<br/><br/>Still this day, I didn't make a review critical against them, only because of their food quality and the taste was of top-notch. Even last time, the food was really good. But they are sure to lose customers with this kind of horrible attitude of their staff. If anyone from the management is reading this, please train your staff with some etiquettes as the restaurant business is a service industry. Please don't hire those who think your restaurant is some sort of PDS/Ration store and customers should be content what they offer. Its so rude and horrible to cut the phone when the customer is speaking and asking for help. If the person who doesn't know how to speak, please give the phone to someone who can speak well.<br/><br/>And for others, when u make online deliveries, it's advisable to have an online payment for this restaurant as in event of any change, don't expect the restaurant to help u. If its online payment at least the service provider can help. Please don't make those poor delivery boys suffer due to this restaurant. <br/><br/>There is no option to rate for Food separately. So for Food, I would rate 4/5. But all other ratings would be 0.5/5...

Wanted to try out different types of Al fahm/ charcoal chicken. That is how I landed up here. Ordered food as a delivery , so no comments about their ambience.<br/><br/>I loved their Chicken Shawarma, both Italian and Arabian version!!! Not much to differentiate , still giving them the credit.<br/><br/>The chicken charcoal - we ordered Pepper, Regular and Italian variations. The pepper was awesome. The regular and Italian were lil over burnt !! Understood it was chicken charcoal but it was too hard to chew. Found it rather bland!!!<br/><br/>Italian charcoal had cheese on top of it to do justice to the name, but wasn't flavourful.<br/><br/>I loved their packing. They were using good containers for delivery/take away.<br/>
Shashank Rao
Wanted to try the Al-faham when in Kerala.<br/>This is a small joint situated opposite Marine drive.<br/>I really liked the Spicy grilled chicken(Spicier version of Al-faham),sufficient to fill 2 stomachs.<br/>It was served with pita bread and garlic sauce,hummus on the side.<br/>Reasonably priced and highly recommended for chicken lovers.
Nikhitha Nath
Honestly I am not satisfied. I ordered Shawarma roll, Chocolate milkshake and chicken burger.<br/>the shawarma and shake was good. But the reasons for 2 stars are:<br/>1. Too much delay<br/>2. Lack of seating<br/>3. The worst part was the burger.. the patty was burned and it was not fresh. and also the bun was burned too
Sanjay Sreekumar
Went to Grill N Chill on the 26th. A view from the outside raised our expectations about the joint.<br/>The ambience of the joint was not up to the mark, expected some music and the crowd was minimal.<br/>The food was good and the quantity was very sufficient.<br/>The Snickers Freak Shake is a must have as well as the Melboune Draga.
Ekta Singh
I tried the Italian shawarma and loved it, overflowing with chicken and cheese. The service is the best part of this place as they were helping with all the menu options to select and were prompt is making. There is option of takeaway too in case you don't want to sit here as this is limited seating capacity place and gets full easily at night.
Charles William Padamadan
What a place, nice, great food, good staff...<br/>All the reviewers in Kochi Instagram and blogs said.<br/>What the hell??<br/>The place is just a place like all other one's. Nothing new, I guess the review people are just done it because of just they got free food. And ones who eat by paying there own money can see it's just an ordinary place with that ordinary food they serve.<br/>They said it's great food.<br/>Ok I'm doing this review sitting at the same restaurant.<br/>Waiting waiting and still waiting to get some food. It been half n hour.<br/>Thank you for keeping us hungry and thank for the great food.<br/>Overall - 3<br/>I had there BBQ biriyani which was rated over rated.<br/>Rate: 220 for qtr<br/>Not ever gonna return. Bad.<br/>Much better place with serve much better BBQ chicken
Vinayak Brahmaputran
This place in marine drive is small with few seatings<br/>But the food was pretty good!!theyve got a few varieties of shawarmas there but the drinks weren’t upto the mark. Its got decent pricing and the ambience is pretty good
Steffy Albin
Reading all the reviews had been to this place shawarma was k had better shawarma's in other places and their bbq rice is soo sticky bbq was not so good. Have you noticed they never serve water they ask you for desserts and drinks.
Reejan Raju
Variety of shawarma's and many other arabian dishes available.Good ambience all around and good service. Barbeque biriyani was splendid the rice blended with right amount of spices.
Rizwana
First of all, the Al fahm and shawarma here is like wow, totally wow. Love the flavours and the variety. Pepper Al fahm, spicy Al fahm and Italian Al fahm are must trys also their jumbo shawarma. Their mojitos and drinks seem fine but their monster shakes all taste like water and aren't thick enough and taste all the same . The ambience is quite ok , so is the service.
Kavya
Had their freak shake - the kitkat shake.. The shake was pretty thick and could taste lot of almonds... The staff was pleasant.. Ambience is good but we found few flies in the restaurant.. Reasonable prices.. Will be coming back to try out their shawarma!
Sam
We had dinner @ grill n chill on friday, the pepper charcoal chicken was superb...also we ordered chicken club sandwich , shawerma and the milkshakes. The pepper charcoal was so juicy and tasty. There too many choices to order and everything was perfect. The staff were polite and friendly.<br/>We will definitely come again on our next kochi visit.<br/>
Aswin John
Having heard and read good things about this joint from food bloggers and Instagram Kochi specific pages, I ordered in their Arabian, Mexican and Italian rolls as well as the Arabian bbq. The rolls tasted more of less the same We have all had better ones in Kochi. The bbq was the lone saving grace.

CHILLY CHEESE TOAST (₹160+GST)<br/>.<br/>When stomach growls with hunger whats better than a Chilly Cheese Toast , a burst of Veges and Cheese .<br/>.<br/>Its a mini pizza sort of thing with many vegetables and cheese over bread.<br/>.<br/>@grillnchillkochi serves snacks with tomato ketchup garnished with an amazing peri peri sauce, which was absolutely LIT...<br/>.<br/>Although @grillnchillkochi is a basically a non veg hogger's  joint, many might be surprised to know that they have separate utensils for vegetarians and maintain at most hygiene . ( PS: info for those who have OCD like me).<br/>.<br/><br/>VIRGIN KIWI MOJITO (₹80+GST)<br/>.<br/>Muddle mint leaves with sugar and lime juice. Virgin Kiwi Mojito is a cocktail that has Smashed cut pieces of Kiwi fruit along with Kiwi Extract.Sprite and Limca are the drinks added over the piece of Musambi. It is garnished with Lime , Squeezed lime and ice cubes.<br/>.<br/>Not many places serve such mojitos. Unlike other places where they add some food colouring / syrup, this Mojito has to be had by mixing the ingredients well to taste the best.<br/>.<br/>It was an extremely refreshing drink which i would definately recommend to all.<br/>.<br/>.<br/>Chocolava Freaky shake (₹180+GST)<br/>.<br/>Chocolate lovers??? Thought of experiencing shake and choco lava cake, both in one?? If not then this is the one for you.<br/>.<br/>Its one of the most beautiful shakes I've ever seen.<br/>.<br/>And yes its rightly said that a person enjoys the food with his eyes before actually tasting it. Hats-off to the amazing presentation to @grillnchillkochi<br/>.<br/>The outside part of the glass was smeered with a chocolaty coat decorated with sprinkler.A part from the shake, there was whipped cream on top of the shake,chocolate sprinklers , colourful sprinklers,and crunchy chocolate balls. .<br/>In short it was a blast of chocolate and tasted amaze too.<br/>.<br/>Rating 4/5<br/>----------------------------------------<br/>Food and drink 4.5/5<br/>Ambience 4/5<br/>Service 4/5<br/>-----------------------------------------

Tried all their special dishes except shavarma's. Must try items are BBQ biryani, Italian BBQ,gnc special sandwich,gnc special shake.nice ambiance and good service .small restaurant with limited seats only.

A small yet cozy resto cafe. They have a really interesting menu. Though I tried quite a lot of stuffs, my favourite three are BBQ Biriyani(flavourful rice!), Peri Peri Fried Chicken(made from fresh Breast, not frozen) and Arabic Shawarma. In shawarma alone they have 4 different options). Among beverages I prefer their special shake(similar to the caltex cocktail of kannur) and blueberry lavender mojito.

Shawarma is my go-to happy meal. So, I had the time of my life at this tasting session at @grillnchillkochi .<br/>In ascending order of preference, let me tell what all I loved.<br/>6) Italian plate Shawarma : If you are in the mood for a change, give it a try<br/>5) Arabic Shawarma : This is everything that's right about Shawarma<br/>4) Peri Peri chicken : Beautiful marinated and nicely spiced. Yummm<br/>3) Spicy bbq : 👍🏼<br/>2) Miracle stick : it's a treat to the eye and the tastebuds<br/>1) BBQ Biryani : ⭐⭐⭐ do not miss out on this!<br/>Now, on to the drinks<br/>2) Ferrero Rocher shake: This is an extravaganza for a Ferrero Rocher fan<br/>1) Coffee lover : Like the name suggests, this one was my favorite. A simple recipe done right.<br/>What I really loved about the drinks was that it was nicely chilled and thick, just like milkshake must be.<br/>Food was mighty tasty and easy on the pocket. This is a nice and nifty place at Marine Drive that offers taste and value for money.

Went on a Sunday night and was surprised to see this recently open, rather small food joint crowded with people/. We had to wait for a bit to get a table. All of that waiting did not do justice, as the star of the place - their Shawarma, was sold out.<br/><br/>We had to then settle for a Chicken Wrap and Spicy Al-Fahm. The wrap was very little in quantity and did not do justice to the price it came for, but the al-fahm was really good. Soft and spicy tender chicken paired up with Kuboos. <br/><br/>Hard to park the car as it is near to the entry into Broadway, on the corner opposite to BayPride Mall.<br/><br/>Going back again for sure and I will not settle without trying their Shawarma.
HungryCochin
I went there for the first time as a tasting session, and I found it great and perfect so I went there few times after that and each and every dish found perfect. The shakes were perfectly thick not too over thick and the flavours were on point. The Mexican shawarma is a recommended dish

Went at around 10pm on a Sunday. Wanted to try their famous shawarma, but was too late. Tried their wrap and spicy al fahm with mint lime.<br/><br/>The al fahm was good, soft and yummy flavoured chicken served with pita and dip. The wrap was small.<br/><br/>Their interiors have been done really well and their menu has a lottt of specialities I wanted to try.<br/><br/>Service was really good and they were happy to get our feedbacks. Definitely going back for more!
Milna Abraham
The ambiance is nice.  We visited around 7 PM. The view from inside gives the vibe of the city. We ordered shawarma and ice cream sundae. It was good. Staffs were courteous and friendly. They have  a mini party area. This is a nice place to have grill and chill :)
Rohan Sabu
Very calm and quiet place to hang out; very good ambience and will give you a complete delhi- bangalore feel; i had ordered for 2 mexican wraps and 2 faloodas; the food came very quickly but the faloodas took quite a while; but even though it was worth the wait; ill rate this place 4 because if the waiting time ; will be looking forward to come back !
Ahmed Harris
The Italian shawarma was a new variety I had tasted....was good but the size was smaller that the normal shawarma.<br/>The Iranian sub chicken burger was well presented and looked really good....the Iranian mix was tasty but the patty was not having much flavour and the whole thing was breaking up in Ur hands (not sure if it was because we had it cut in two)
Shanu Shanu
One of the worst food I ate this time. Had a Mexicon shawarma. It's very cool and the khuboos are very hard.<br/>Atleast they provide some salads. I don't recommended for any one
Junaid
I have ordered their food through zomato ,packing was very nice👌 and pepper BBQ is Delicious,its come up with hummus and mayonnaise ✌️must try
Nidheesh Vrindavanam
Ordered two items from Grill N Chill and really pleased to inform about their service and taste... for first time through Zomato I received falooda where last two times i received only fruit salad instead of falooda from another hotels, GNC provided me with tasty falooda... and later on same day I ordered Shake and the order was accepted but within 10min the hotel team contacted me saying the item I ordered is finished.. and told me that they will provide me with another shake of my choice... really liked their attitude... Really love this hotel and in future too I look forward to order more items from here.... :)
Roshini Joseph
Have tried their all shawarma .. pretty good<br/>Barbecue biriyani.. is also fair enough <br/>And Alfaham both Arabian and spicy <br/>They have great fries garlic sauce and hummus <br/>They have good range of Arabian dish<br/>They have got good servings and customer service is fabulous!<br/>
Georgekv
declined my order via zomato after having make me wait 30 mins . This is 2nd time i've been made to wait atleast 30 mins before the restaurant accepts the order. Never ordering again from the restaurant.
Jojo Tharappel
full chicken comes with 4 khuboos. I got only 2
Sonu Antony
Never order the cheesy French fries. They are not at all good. The Mexican shawarma was good tho. Would recommend for the Mexican shawarma only.
Thomas O George
Best Cafe in Ernakulam, serves delicious food, a must visit by all means. The staff is extremely professional and trained to their job the best. Food was fresh and perfect quantity for the price they charge.
Jdn2007
I ordered golden fried chicken from here, actually that is cheating very low quantity and waste food. They don't know how cook fried chicken...please don't order.
Steve Bayer
They cook the shawarma meat well but I feel that they could improve on the quality of their ingredients given the price of the shawarma.<br/><br/>I have only ordered home delivery from here so I cannot comment on their in store ambience.
