That looks like just appetizers, queso and salads. I haven’t looked at a menu in years. I’m surprised they even have a website.
I still often get the exact same dish that I got the first time I sat down in there when I was 12 years old. It’s called the Toluca.

They have a few Griff’s locations in the DFW area. I never realized they had locations in LA.

I'll still get a couple chili dogs, fries and a half vanilla, half chocolate ice from Country Cream in Mer Rouge every couple months. Drag some fries thru the ice cream like I did as a kid. Good stuff
