| - Came here for dinner on Friday night and despite the guaranteed wait for a table, I love the food here! Two of us arrived around 7:30 p.m. and were told the wait would be an hour. The hostess took my cell number and informed us that I would receive a text when a table was available. Although we went to a bar close by for a drink to pass the time, our table was surprisingly available in thirty minutes. We were seated this time at the bar at the front of the restaurant. As mentioned in many reviews, the music is loud in the front so I was actually glad we were seated side-by-side at the bar rather than a table. However, if more than two people it will definitely be difficult to have a conversation.
Everything I have ordered here has always been great; nothing has disappointed yet. I recommend the tuna cerviche and spicy squid to start and share. The spicy squid in particular should be a must try. For tacos, no matter where I go, if I order fish tacos, I always compare it to GE; no other place I have tried makes better fish tacos than GE! Other favourites are the pig tail and pork belly tacos. Some menu items and tacos are also not always offered. For dessert, the key lime pie is fantastic - I have to order this every time! It is enough to share between two people.
I hate the wait for a table, but I do love Grand Electric; I will wait for a reasonable amount of time but I do refuse to wait 3 hours which can be the case (I have been told twice previously on weekends)! Also, despite some reviews, I have never had any issues with service; they have been attentive and friendly. This is one place where the food hype won't disappoint for a casual night of good eats!
