My favorite food restaurant and love to go back again and again. Great service and affordable prices.

im so grateful I have this waba close to my house to grab some healthy food after my gym sessions or when I need a quick lunch. service is always great and my food is always bomb and fresh. The bowls and shrimp tacos are AMAZING. I always do an order pick up & have never had a problem with my order. never close down please lol! read more

Ubered Meal Review: Ordered 2 chicken bowls, it seemed like one bowl had a little more chicken than the other. Default sauces selected was the waba sauce which should have been the teriyaki sauce, but it didn't come in or on the side. A bit disappointed and there was definitely an overload of rice vs chicken. read more

I was half ways done with my bowl and I found a hair I'm so sad I can't even drive back because it was a quick stop for me

1019-E N. Magnolia Ave. This location in Anaheim is the worst. Constantly messing up Doordash orders. I gave them one last chance today and they completely screwed up the order. The Doordash driver said that he would go back to the store and get the proper order. But the store decided to cancel the order all together and leave me waiting outside of my work. Doordash called me a few minutes later to tell me about the cancelation. NEVER AGAIN with this place. HORRIBLE!!!!! read more

Chicken bowl? Steak bowl? Can't decide? Get 'um both in a combo bowl. However you take your bowl, you won't go wrong. Not feeling the bowl today? Maybe tacos or a salad will do. You'll still get the delicious ingredients, just in a different presentation. Nice efficient, friendly service. Seating inside and out. Clean and priced right. Easy parking. read more

Honestly first and foremost this is probably the best waba I've been to in my area the service is great the cook is very friendly and the food is immaculate. The store is really clean and great place overall. read more

WaBa Grill - White meat chicken rice and veggie bowl with boom boom sauce - Fast Food Near Me - Anaheim, California

I usually come to this location since it is near my house, but after tonight I won't be returning. I came in at 9:10 pm 50 minutes before closing time, as soon as I walk in immediately told there was no more chicken I settled for a steak bowl asked for veggies again told there was no veggies. When my order was done I asked for Waba sauce I was given packets of "wabablaze" sauce, I asked the worker for the waba sauce in the cup she rudely told me that's spicy waba. I wasn't aware that I had originally asked for "wabablaze" sauce. I also got garlic serrano sauce which is normally cold and in the fridge this one was warm and runny. Asked for jalapeños since i guess after a certain time they're put behind the counter? Very Disappointed when i got home and seen my "beef" bowl if you can even call it that seemed to be missing the beef. I'll drive the extra mile to Flame Broiler down the street before I come to this waba again. read more

WaBa Grill - beef Steak Bowl - Fast Food Near Me - Anaheim, California

We ordered the food to go. It took 30 minutes we ordered four teriyaki bowls and they gave us zero teriyaki sauce just plain dry chicken call them to fix they did not care not worth it at all the one in Orange is better read more

Foods great but its insanely hot in there. No AC! Especially in this heat. So instead of dining in i ordered for take out. I feel bad more for the employees having to work in such a harsh environment. If this establishment fixes their ac then I'd come back more often. At this point no since im sensitive to the heat and would rather just go to another place with fresh ac so I can enjoy my food with my friends. read more

Karol i hope i spelled your name right. You were a fantastic employee and good at what you do. Didnt have to ask for anything she beat us to the punch on everything. Great employee great food. Need more like her in this world and shes very friendly and a big smile!! read more

Good food, friendly employees. Whoever the ownership is, you need to fix the AC. This is unacceptable having your employees work in such a hot environment in the peak summer season. Have some compassion. read more

every time I come here my food always hot and fast service, staff super friendly. Jesus super nice!

This is the Best Waba Grill i've been to in the O.C, i really like it because is allways so clean, and the cashier Karol is allways so friendly and helpfull.. Also the stake and the chicken are allways well serve and prepare just in the point, so the cook, chef Betxania really knows what she's doing.. please keep up the good team work.. best place for my lunch break. 100% recommended. read more

Amazing place for me and my friends to have a meal after the gym. Food is great and staff is friendly. Today was absolutely horrendous though. The AC has apparently been down so my friends kept up the sweat stank unlike normally where are cooled by the AC. I can't imagine how hot all those wonderful employees are working in that kitchen. Get the AC fixed, and maybe I'll change this review to what it should be. read more

I come here very often, at least 2-3 times a week. Everyone is super friendly and the food is always on point. Recently there hasn't been AC so I had to take my food to go instead of enjoying it hot and fresh. It's unbearable and I can only imagine how the staff feels working in that heat. It's definitely not safe work conditions and I hope no one ends up hurt or sick due to how hot it is in there. I may end up escalating this to BBB or the city, or whoever I need to reach out to so this gets taken care of ASAP! read more

Great food and the server was amazing, but no AC. Too hot to be eating and in this heat as well. Please fix the AC. The poor workers must be struggling with no AC read more

Karol was amazing! She was very patient with us since it was our first time! They did not disappoint! The only unfortunate thing is there are only 2 people working really hard and in this hot summer they do not have AC. You can see them running around when it is so hot! They deserve recognition! Thank you Karol! read more

Second time this happens. I normally come to this place because it's closest to my home, I ordered two half & half bowls with avocado. (I removed the avocado to get a better picture) the amount of chicken is a joke, they should call it a "bow of rice" with a sprinkle of chicken. SMH. Both bowls look like this. Not coming back to this locations read more

The quantity of meat servings given out in bowls, I asked for a light veggie chicken bowl and got more veggies than chicken. This is bull and I'm never going to this location again. read more

I had an off order , however the location reached out and made it right. They listened to my concerns and addressed them. This shows they listen to their customers. I changed my review to reflect their attentiveness. Thank you for listening. read more

Restaurant was very nice and food was delicious. It was very clean and the cashier was sweet and polite. Service was overall awesome and would definitely come back for the protein . read more

I was disappointed by the service I received and also because it should have been cleaner. I ordered the jumbo shrimp, rice and veggie plate. I received the shrimp and rice but no veggies. I returned to the counter and was given a side of veggies with no argument. The lady that assisted me was very polite about it and had someone quickly prepare the steamed veggies. Unfortunately, I was given a large, hard chunk of cabbage which seemed to be part of the stem that you would usually throw away There was no one dining at the restaurant and only one other customer behind me but despite that the floors were dirty. There were enough employees working to ensure the place was kept clean and I feel cleanliness should definitely be an eating establishments priority. read more

I had the veggie and beef chicken bowl with the rice and the rice was fluffy! Def must eat it with the sauce. It's pretty decent for something on the go! read more

Best customer service I've ever had. Love this Waba grill. All the staff there is so kind and cares about the customer experience

Really good food so amazing good customer service and they take EBT so that is cool too highly recommend

I was surprised at how horrible the customer service is at this location. There were 2 customers dining in the lobby, one employee on break and one employee in the lobby. I walked in and went directly to the counter. Ignored by the lady doing the cooking. I said hi. She looked at me, said nothing then went back to cooking and said something in Spanish to the employee on break. Employee on break gets up, goes to the back, washes her hands, puts on gloves and starts cooking next to the cook. I said hi again. The cook looked at me again and then went right back to cooking. There was nobody else in the line! I'm not going to beg you to take my money. Go elsewhere read more

I really dont understand how these restaurants are charging more for their food and then giving you less meat portions. If you're going to raise the prices then at least keep the portions the same and not eff us more by giving us less meat. Waba i guess you're the new Chipotle with cutting down meat portions. Never eating here again. read more

I only give it a 2 because I love the taste of their food but seriously I paid $12 for hardly any chicken and some veggies but mainly rice?! This is the third time this has happened. I've never complained about WaBa because I used to love them but this is out of control and plus this place is always dirty. WaBa has lost my business read more

This particular Waba Grill is top-notch compared to other Waba's I've been to. They're located next to several other businesses, and do a great job in holding ground and making sure the experience for the customer is priority. Service is good for the most part - some confusion every once and a while - and the place is clean throughout. I've never had a food issue here, and I always have good meals when I stop by. read more

WaBa Grill - Tofu Veggie Bowl - Fast Food Near Me - Anaheim, California

I was there 8/1/23 at 9 pm. we received our food at 9:19 pm, and the cashier who didn't have a name tag told my husband they were closing in 20min! I also overheard her tell another customer that they close at 9:40pm. You could tell he was upset, and since he saw us sitting down, he also sat down to eat. Their website say they close at 10 pm. What's worse is that I got FOOD POISONING!! I have a sensitive stomach, and I felt gross right away. The health department need to drop in on them! read more

Finally a Waba Grill near my house. An healthy options to eat after the gym. They have a good healthy options like instead of the rice you can replace it with veggies or get their salad. I like getting the chicken veggie bowl. The flavors are solid and the teriyaki sauce is very well made. I also like how they have chopped up green onions by the soda fountain. Their portion are less than other teriyaki places. So far they have good customer service and good atmosphere, healthy and fresh. And a message to WaBa. Try to always keep clean, have wonderful service and good quality of food. Trust me people care about that the most. If not your going to receive bad ratings like other waBa grills. read more

Ridiculous I came in to have dinner with my husband and baby and the customer service sucked it was freezing cold and I requested the doors to be closed and the cashier said that the owner has prohibited from closing the doors rain or shine. Are you kidding me? I was shivering the entire time we were there. Well now my baby and I are sick... it is so unwelcoming will not be coming back to this location. read more

place use to good now its just bad once they served me raw chicken and told me it was my fault for not saying anything about it when I ate it four hours later go down the street to golden bowl in buena park its better food and service and youll pay 10$ for double the portion than this read more

WaBa Grill - this is what you get for 11 $ last time I come here - Fast Food Near Me - Anaheim, California

1star review for the employee in the red shirt. All the other great employees are in black shirts so maybe this one is the manager? Whatever the case maybe, she's horrible. Very unprofessional, was not wearing gloves as she was handling her personal phone and my food at the same time. She was gossiping on the phone with someone (I know because I know Spanish). Honestly next time I come in here and I see her behind the counter I'm walking out. I threw my food away after receiving it from her. Oh and she gives half portions of everything as if they're running out of food like wth?? Never have I had that happen to me in any other Waba grill, they're always so generous with their servings. But not her I guess. Did not get her name she wasn't wearing a name tag. Thanks for ruining my Lunch break lady **Btw, this wasn't the first time this has happened here with the same lady. read more

Definitely come here if you want to pay 11 bucks for maybe half a handful of chicken on rice. And if you want barely any customer service than you found your place! Really love all the flies flying around the onions and jalapeños, adds to the charm of the place read more

This location is getting more and more disappointing. If it was not for my son loving the steak bowl so much I would not return. It seems like every time I come in to buy bowls I get less and less meat. I have spoken to the cashiers about my concerns and they could care less. They have scales to ensure the same amount but never use it. They only time I have seen it used is when someone from "upper management" was paying a visit. To come in and consistently spend 40-50 dollars per visit and only get what's seems to 10-15 smalls pieces of diced chicken is absolutely insane to me. Gonna be hard to tell my son we will no longer be going there! So sad to want to support your local business but always seem to get screwed over. read more

Cross contamination Food preparer used plastic glove cooking raw chicken then prepared food without replacing gloves. Update: Was contacted by Waba and issue will be resolved. read more

The girl tonight was just rude and short. I am new to the area and I knew this was a safe choice but for the price you pay and the service you get it really isn't worth it. All I can say is if your that unhappy with your job maybe it's time to change jobs. When a customer comes and tells you their order is wrong you take the whole order back and fix it not just change out the rice and say you can put the rest in yourself. read more
