WaBa Grill

A big bowl of rice with rubbery chicken on top. Not very good. Took a while to get our order, as it was made fresh, but the chicken was not good.

Great food friendly staff! Happy to see the 2 for 10 deal for chicken bowls at 3pm! I will be returning.

I go to this location a few times a week, I love it, the staff is friendly and fast paced. Food it’s great ! Keep up the good work :)

Ordered a rice bowl with brown rice and onions and a shrimp plate with brown rice. The shrimp plate came with brown rice the veggie bowl had white rice and no onions. Paid for our meals with a $ 100.00 bill. My mistake but I took the change without counting it and put it in my pocket. A couple of hours later when I got home I pulled the change out of my pocket and found that I had one $ 20 bill and three 1 $ bills — I should have had four $ 20s. When I called the restaurant the woman I first spoke to said there were no $ 100 bills in the register at all. Then she asked me for more information and I told her EXACTLY what happened, including the fact that before our meals were served to us the man working the register conveniently left for the day. I just got a return phone call from the restaurant who said I am on camera paying with one $ 100 bill and getting some bills in change. Expensive lesson for me but I will NEVER eat at this WaBa or any other WaBa. I am upset more by the fact that this is one more lesson in life to NOT trust anyone. Hope they enjoy the extra cash they made off of me.

Flavor was good, service was OK, but HOW DO YOU MESS UP RICE?
First time trying it last Saturday night and was looking forward to it, took a bite of the rice and it was not fully cooked. I will not return to this location.

I got the salmon plate. Thy advertise mixed fruit I got ½ an orange. Thy advertise salad with mixed lettuce and I got kale salad with some sort of slimy dressing. This was my first time here so I wasn’t used to the teriyaki sauce or hot sauce. Tasted funny. The salmon was burnt tasted they it was defrosted in microwave and than cooked. Next time I’ll stick with flame broiler

Was not impressed at all much rather go to flame boiler. The salmon was dry… Steak was OK but I won’t be returning

Came here with friends last week. As usual, the food was great. Parking wasn’t a problem here like others in the area. Good to see that they have a happy hour special.

Laleone was great… Fast service… Dining area not to clean. Staff could be more more experienced… Lady in red not as nice kinda food have been better the guys in the back cooking and working hard food was good

Stopped in here today and was not too thrilled with my food. The orange was dry and didn’t look like it should actually be eaten, it looked like it had been cut a week ago, and the vegetables were as hard as a rock. They were just plain raw. I thought they were supposed to be steamed?
When I ordered, I asked for a ½ tofu and a ½ steak plate, since the sign showed they now have tofu. They said they couldn’t do that. They said they would not put tofu with steak on the same plate. So, I had to order ½ steak, ½ chicken. don’t really like the chicken, since it’s thigh meat and the steak was hard to chew. Come to think of it, even the brown rice was hard to chew. I really don’t know what I was thinking.

So they took my order and they were pretty quick about it but the girl that helped looked exhausted and not friendly at all the tables were dirty and the floors were sticky

This was just «ok» for me. The chicken was a little dry (white meat), the brown rice was undercooked and chewy. The veggies were cooked well. The green onions (optional) was a nice touch. We took it to go, portion was ok for the price and enough for 2 people. I was only passing thru so this would not be a regular stop for me.

Yesterday was my first time at Waba Grill. I enjoyed it so much, I went back today. Both times I ordered the rib plate. Yesterday I had the brown rice, today I had the white rice. Both times, the rice was cooked to perfection. The meat was tasty and the portion size was very generous. The employees were friendly, service was fast and the store was clean. I will be coming back to try the other items on the menu.

It’s a waba grill, so you know what you’re getting. Quick, fresh, healthy, and tasty. This one is kept clean and not over-​crowded, so I rate an «above average» 4 stars. It is what it is!

This was my first time at WaBa Grill.
I ordered a half and half bowl with brown rice. I thought everything was average and pretty good. However, the brown rice was way too undercooked!
I like that you can get the teriyaki sauce and hot sauce as needed. I also liked that they offered jalapeño and carrots. They went well with my food.

We love Waba Grill. We try them out where ever we go. Seems like more stores are opening everywhere in SoCal. Drove by this location last week and decided to try them out yesterday while visiting friends in the area. As usual the rib plate was awesome! Portions were great! The kids love the kids meals with their included apple juice. Good stuff with good staff = good experience!

Been loving WaBa Grill. I travel around a lot so I’ve been to a lot of different locations. No complaints on my dining experience here, food was good, service was quick and everything was clean. Good stuff!

Went up the the hill today and decided to drop by with my friends for lunch. I got a chicken steak plate and as usual, the food was fresh and tasty. I also like how they started to carry more bottled drinks. The pure leaf teas are great.

Very open layout. Friendly staff. Diet Dr. Pepper. Good alternative to burger places in the area. Glad I tried it. Everything tasted fresh and tasty. Vegetables were steamed great and not mushy. Also appreciated the brown rice. I’d come again.

Meh.
That really describes our lunch at Waba.
I was not too excited about the choice in new dining in our area, but anything new deserves a fair chance.
They have been open for about 5 weeks now and it was pretty full for 11 am on a friday.
Service was nice, but lets just say not the brightest.
I got the salmon veggie bowl, subbed veggie for rice, 50 cent.
Had she told me it was also 50 cent to add veggie I would have done that, not great service.
My husband got a chicken and brown rice (upcharge) and a steak and white rice bowl.
They switched the meats on accident and when I saw her start to take her hands to grab a fistful of meat and put it on the other rice I was appalled and told her to just leave it.
Dispite the fact that he said the chicken tasted horrible and the brown rice was undercooked, the food cold in general, what he said pretty much sums it up.
I’m all for healthy food, but it shouldn’t taste like nothing. The only flavor is a sugered up teriyaki sauce which wouldl eliminate the whole health factor again.
There are too many ways to add flavor and taste while still being healthy not have to eat like this.
The steamed veggies raw and cold, my salmon was ok but not the best quality.
Nice location, clean and modern, but too young, not well trained staff with no sense of etiquette and food lacking any flavor leaves me no reason to return.
