SM City Grand Central

This SM mall is quite big, modern, spacious, has a lot of stores to offer and not so crowded compared to where I used to go to North EDSA, Megamall or MOA which are more crowded and harder to find parking. It has good restaurants and a variety of well-known shops too.

i’ll give this a 5-star rating so everyone can see this. 𝗔 𝗻𝗼𝘁-𝘀𝗼-𝗴𝗼𝗼𝗱 𝗲𝘅𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗺𝗶𝘀𝘀 𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗲𝗹𝗲𝘃𝗮𝘁𝗼𝗿. My friends and I usually pass by SM to cool off a bit before going home because of the extreme heat, and sometimes we also eat at fast food restaurants. But last Wednesday, after attending mass on the 5th floor for Ash Wednesday, my friends and I decided to take the elevator since it wasn’t crowded, and we were heading straight home after the mass. But girl, God really tested my patience, jusqoh pwoah. As we were about to enter the elevator, this lady assisting passengers immediately made a scene. When we're already inside, there was another person who wanted to get in, but she didn’t allow it, saying the elevator had already reached its capacity. We understood that, since there were already quite a few of us inside. But what we couldn’t understand was why she answered so rudely—so disrespectful, as if she was looking for a fight. When someone said, "Keri pa 'yan" she snapped back, "Anong keri? Desisyon ka?" Like, girl???? Then, when the elevator doors closed, she even made side comments inside, saying people should just use the stairs since they could still walk. Then, I think around the 3rd floor, someone else wanted to get in, but she didn’t let them, saying, “You’re big enough, you have no heavy bags, and you have feet to walk.” That was really annoying, fr. She kept doing this to every person who tried to enter, plus she made sure we all inside could hear her rude side comments. Did she think we’d find her funny? No one laughed because she was acting so unprofessional. She knows what her job is, so she should expect to deal with different kinds of people. Like, girl, can’t you answer and approach people in a nice way??? That attitude isn’t adding to your beauty, miss. Umpisa na umpisa ng Kuwaresma, ganiyan ugali mo? Hindi ka pa ba inaakbayan ni Lord??

Super lawak ng mall but I only ended up going through fourth floor. Mostly mga food courts andito and even though I want to try all their foods here, di ko kaya ng one day lng. I'm also happy na may pet shop dto which is my favorite boutique to go to when I go shopping at malls

A word of caution - even though everything's nice and bright inside the mall, be very careful of your surroundings as you step outside, as there are a lot of snatchers and pickpockets in this very busy area. This used to be the Ever Grand Central years ago. Then it got burned down and vacant for a long time. First to be SM is the other side which was also Ever turned Hypermarket. There is always a multitude of people because of its prime location, Monumento LRT. Especially overcrowded during Holidays weekends or sale. OMG triggers my panic attack. Long hallways to reach their CR. Usually with soap, but often no toilet paper. In the sink almost half of the faucets are not working as well. Foodcourt, a lot of standby, not really eating but on their phones. This mall has Ace Pet Express Watsons cinema chapel everything. This is way bigger than the nearby (actually you can walk going there) SM Sangandaan Caloocan. I observed many of the stores had closed down and replaced by other tenants. I hope this mall will not be wasted or poorly maintained as it is class CDE mallgoers in here. From CaMaNaVa and nearby. Some just spit on the floor! This mall is pet friendly but NOT stray friendly, unlike the Ayala malls.

This shopping mall has unique architecture. the ceiling is little unique compared to any mall. not a sharp angle to be seen in the corner. Its like heaven in the Forest and the floor shines like the surface of a lake at sunrise.
