“Best Burgers Anywhere!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 16 May 2012

person found this review helpful

Located in the quaint historical village of Arroyo Grande, we always make a point to visit when we are in Central California. The mushroom burger literally melts in your mouth! The flavors are so distinct and yummy. The fries are too die for. It is a little busy around lunch so plan accordingly. Outside tables provide great people watching when... More

“Great lunch in 'The Village'”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 April 2012

This grill makes good burgers and sandwiches. I prefer the chicken ranch wrap, you'll be hard pressed to finish it all. I also like the chili-cheese fries, the chili is not strong and has a little sweet flavor to it. Prices are very reasonable and atmosphere is great...on a warm day sit under the umbrella out front and people watch. More

“Best Burgers in Arroyo Grande”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 February 2012

We like the hometown 'retro' atmosphere of the Old Village Grill. It's quaint and is part of the 'Village' (old town) of Arroyo Grande. Besides burgers, the place serves delicious jalapeno chicken sandwiches. There's always shakes and fries (and onion rings) to top off the order. Never been disappointed. More

“Great grill”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 February 2012

Wonderful place to stop in and have a chicken bacon sandwich. The burgers are good, but must eat in. Food is too good to wait until you get home. Fries are out of this world, salads are very large, may want to share with someone. More

Great for taking lots of kids... good food (burgers, chicken sandwiches, fries, and onion rings), and the BEST milkshakes in the village of Old Arroyo. Great location, and many other good restaurants to choose from close by also. More

“Pretty Good!”

This place has been here for a long time. We went for lunch to try something local and new that we hadn't been to yet. She had a burger, I had a steak sandwich. Both were delicious and it was about $20 for the two of us. Check it out if you are in the mood for a good old... More

“Consistently Great Food”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 March 2011

OVG has been there for over 10 years and it is consistently great food no matter what you get. Their salads are really good. The burgers are great, and the grilled chicken sandwich is also a real treat. More

“Best burgers and sandwich specials on the Central Coast”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 September 2010

OVG - Old Village Grill is and has been a favorite of our family for years. The burgers and sandwiches are always tasty and fresh. Definitely a 2 napkin meal because they are so juicy and big. My daughter loves the fries and onion rings and I go for the shakes. The daily special is always a winner. And you... More
