Been meaning to try WaBa grill for a while and finally stopped by on the way back into Phoenix. Was fairly busy on a 4pm on a Monday but no line in front of me and they also had self service kiosks it looked like on the side. I ordered the WaBa Veggie Bowl which comes with chicken and steak along with carrots cabbage glazed with their like teriyaki sauce. I preferred the chicken over the steak but it had a really clean char flavor on both meats and were tender and juicy. The teriyaki sauce was really tasty as well not too soy based and plenty of it in the bowl so mixes with the rice and veggies and meat and more than enough. Also had the 5 dumplings which were tasty as well. All in all great meal that's really clean. This would be great casual option if you want something clean and not oily but tasty. read more

I see you Waba! I see your efforts in improving, trying to improve. Staff changed, service much friendlier, not as stingy with sauce packets. But please Please change the air, keep it cooler, and do better with the bathrooms and I don't mean close them permanently to customers. The greatest turn off is the extremely disgusting off putting smells in there. If it's not that it smells like a dirty wet mop, it's smells like a poorly cleaned bathroom, or old half way cooked meat. Please fix this issue. I don't eat here but I grab for my family and they say the food is good, but can we fix all else? read more

It has been some time since I've had the chance to stop by since we moved out of state. Tonight, on my way to work, I stopped in. It has changed a bit inside. The employee who helped me was pleasant. I didn't realize the menu changed a bit. Prices, of course I expected. I ordered the Tofu Veggie Rice bowl and added avocado. Small drink.Yum! The wait wasn't bad ,pretty fast. I was shocked that small drinks are kids' size and I had to ask for extra teriyaki sauce. It used to be fill a small cup, like you do ketchup in some places. Now it's packaged. My bag only had one, so I'm glad I asked for two more. I do like my food saucy. When I got to work, it looks tasty. The portion is smaller than I remember, so next time, I'm ordering extra veggies and a tad more rice. I don't mind extra charges. I didn't put hot sauce because I'm still having heartburn issues. Overall, tasty! I'll be back for sure. read more

I ordered delivery. I ordered the salmon bowl with brown rice and extra salmon and some other add-ons I got NONE of the add-ons (which I paid for). I did NOT get the extra salmon (which I paid an extra few dollars for). I actually got only a half order of salmon and the brown rice was stiff and cold. Like microwaveable brown rice that wasn't fully cooked. Not only am I never going to order delivery from here, I will NEVER eat at any Waba Grill ever again. Stay away read more

I am newly obsessed with this place!! I discovered it on DoorDash the other day. I ordered the steak, chicken and veggie bowl with Waba Sauce and green onions. It is delicious! Everything is cooked perfectly and has great flavor. The sauce is a little sweet but not overbearing. I have ordered this several times this week and it's been consistent every time. Food always arrives warm! read more

This is a really nice no-frills place and for being in a strip mall. I was in town for work and it was handy. Nice place, clean, friendly staff. I had the WaBa bowl. It had both steak and chicken with the WaBa sauce. Only downside was I got an extra packet of sauce and I couldn't get the packet open!! I didn't get another as there was enough sauce that they put on. Food came quickly and hot. Good flavors. Would eat here again if I was around. read more

I was craving Waba grill because I don't have one close to my house so I stopped by on a Friday. I walked in and ordered a Chicken Bowl with Avocado (Avocado is like $1.90 more) and the flavor was good and the chicken was freshly cooked! It appeared there were only two employees working, one was a lady cooking in the back and a younger guy at register. There wasn't tons of people barging in the door, but they seemed busy (maybe online orders or prepping for the Dinner rush). When the guy wasn't at the register he was helping prep food in the back, but I felt like they needed 1 more employee to help on the dining room. So many of the tables had food on them and dust- they needed to be wiped down. The floor needed to be swept and the utensil station was out of forks. Food was good! I just felt like the condition of the restaurant needed more attention. read more

Went in 30 minutes before closing and only take out. Why? No dishes to wash after I'm done eating. Made a trip for nothing and wasted my time and gas to go home hungry. read more

If you're looking for a small portion and you want to pay too much for it and this is the place to taste leaves you wanting more got the steak and vegetable the steak was tender the vegetables were minuscule tiny way too little for an extra charge of a dollar thus Two pieces of broccoli and three slices of carrot for a dollar more and without the up charge there is no vegetables in it wow! The food is definitely better than panda in taste and freshness but tiny portion!

WaBa Grill - $13 for 6 shrimp. That's a rip off - Asian Fusion Near Me - Avondale, Arizona

I was hesitant to order because of the bad reviews but I went ahead to try them. I ordered thru Doordash- steak bowl, Wabimbap & dumplings. They were actually good. The portions were also good enough for the price. The meat and rice portion were perfect which contradicts the bad reviews on Yelp. I did have a missing order- the avocado side. But other than that, I enjoyed the food and I would order from them again. read more

Went here after a bad experience at Yogi Grill. The person that helped me was very friendly, I think his name was Will. My bowl was much cheaper than Yogi Grill and they don't charge you for insane add ons, substitutions or sauce on side vs in the bowl and they don't put ingredients on your bowl that aren't listed on their menu. My bowl was done very quickly and I was sent away with kindness. I will for sure be back here again soon. read more

The customer service was beyond horrible!!! I went to get food for my wife not knowing they had closed however the lights were on, the sign that says open was on and the door was open!!! I walked in wasn't greeted with 3 employees but I was immediately confronted and threatened. One Caucasian male said we are closed leave ?? In shock I replied the door is wide open and the sign is also on and before I could recommend locking the door and turning off signage during closing hours while your counting money which I'm positive is a huge mistake... he said get out or I'll call the cops...!! We exchanged some insults and his Spanish employee called me a idiot for coming in. If I wasn't the nice guy I would have waited for them outside and addressed him properly. All they had to say was we made a mistake door should have been locked sorry but instead I was threatened and called names. I called them names like so I'm not innocent but I'll never go back to this location again based on that experience. There is a way to talk to people when you represent a company and they failed. The young Spanish girl stood quite and said nothing I could tell she knew they were in the wrong. I also got a salmon bowl one time and it was over cooked and jerky like so another reason I will never go back but this was the icing on the cake. read more

I didn't know about WaBa Grill until about a month ago and today I ordered for the 10th time and it didn't disappoint ! Their food is delicious and our whole family is in love with their WaBa sauce! (Both the spicy and non spicy) I'm extremely pleased with the quality of their food! Another great thing; they're convenient! I love being able to order ahead (online) and pick it up when I'm in the area and when I'm not, I like to order it online to have it delivered. I created an account online and they give you special offers that have saved me money. What I love about WaBa compared to Yogis Grill, is that WaBa grill doesn't overload you with rice. When I used to get Yogis I would have such little protein and far too much rice. WaBa has a great balance. read more

Great quick stop. Is it gourmet? No. But so much better than typical fast food if you're in a hurry. Wouldn't hesitate to return.

The shrimp wasn't Cook The teriyaki sauce seemed like it had a laxative in it. It was really painful for me I actually slept on the toilet. This place spoiled it for me to ever want to eat a shrimp again read more

10/10 DUMPLINGS. I'm not even joking that they are the best. Their bowls are wonderful. This place is a staple

I came in 15 min until close (I know, :( I'm terrible) BUT the night crew extremely nice and accommodating. I really appreciate how polite they were even though they had already started closing procedure. The night crew is amazing, thank you SO much!!! I had the plant based steak with veggies and rice. 10/10 as always :) read more

I ordered two bowls one steak and chicken the other chicken and they were orders as very light rice extra veggies. what we got was an entire huge bowl of rice with a sprinkle of meat and veggies on top. I ordered this before and it wa a great this was so upsetting and DoorDash could care less they offer a 6.00 credit in a 40 dollar order. Probably won't order from Waba again. read more

The service here is always great. Food is on point ! Always clean and bright. $6.40 for chicken and rice bowl and only $7.20 for steak??? Not a bad deal. Make sure to some extra wanna sauce or soy sauce read more

My friends and I decided to try out this Waba Grill since we heard that there's been a change in management and the 4 for $20 chicken bowl deal was a perfect deal for our group. This is my first time coming to this establishment and they did an excellent job in making this a memorable experience to write about. When you walk in through the door, you're met with a soft, contemporary design with spacious booths and tables, making it a perfect setting for an intimate occasion or an all out party. The menu is easy to navigate and the distinction between meat based plates and bowls and its vegetarian counterparts makes this place the ideal neutral ground for a diverse group. Personally, I ordered the Waba signature plate which comes with a warm bed of white rice, generously topped off with grilled steak and chicken, a side of house salad seasoned with sweet Dijon dressing, and a half-sliced orange. If that doesn't sound delectable enough, you can order a thinly-sliced half-ocado as an add on to complete this ambrosial meal. Perhaps, I'm infatuated with Waba and I have a voracious appetite for Asian fusion dishes, but let me just say for the price, quality and freshness of the food, and the superb customer service (shout out to my man Moi), there's a method to this insanity. read more

Everything was good. Customer service, wait time, food. All was fantastic, keep up the great work

A little disappointed I stopped by WaBa Grill today for lunch. I thought I would give WaBa Grill a try after reading so many positive reviews. WaBa Grill is nice, clean and bright. I was greeted as I entered the restaurant and the staff was very friendly. I placed my lunch order and sat down, and my entree was prepared quickly. On this visit I ordered a steak bowl with white rice and an ice tea. I have to be honest my entree was not very good. The beef was tough, the rice was over cooked, and I did not particularly care for the sauce. I will probably revisit WaBa Grill in the near future and maybe try a different entree and see how that is. read more

My boyfriend and I ordered the half-half (chicken/steak) and chicken bowl. We both thought the food was decent; wished there were veggies on the side to balance out the meal. But you can order a veggie bowl, although we didn't want to spend an extra $5/6 for it. I also wished they didn't put their sauce on top, it was a bit too much- I would have rather liked to put it on myself. They're portions are big, so if you want a quick healthy meal to fill you up - GO HERE. read more

I've ordered the tofu bowl Twice and both times the tofu has been bad! Sour tofu is just gross. Both times I've called to let them know. They never offer to do anything about it, no money back or even a free bowl to make up for the money I just lost purchasing expired food from them. Never going back!!! read more

The service was poor. No one greeted me when I walked in and the girl at the counter reviewed my order and said oh, I put white rice instead of brown, is that ok? Food was great. I was skeptical at first due to lack of customer service but not bad in food! I enjoyed my waba chicken bowl with veggies and brown rice! read more

Just letting you know the food here is really good the problem bathrooms are blocked with chairs not cool me and some friends are thinking about having a go fund me so we can raise money to buy a porta potty and put it in the front thank you read more

Wish they had a bigger variety of veggies other than just carrots and broccoli. Also half an avacado is an extra $2 charge. Rice and Veggie bowl was a decent portion for $5.50 though. Could have made it at home for half the price either way. Tofu is cooked in the same grill as all the meat, so we couldn't even have that. The "WaBa Sauce" (teriyaki) is vegan. If you are in a super pinch and want litterally steamed rice, steamed carrots, and steamed broccoli for $5.50 then this is the spot. read more

While I like the food, the biggest draw was the sauce dispenser that allowed you to use more sauce on the meat and rice. Well, that is gone and they will only give you one little packet which lasted for two bites. We tried to get more and were told "we already gave you extra sauce" which was one packet a piece. The chicken plate was way too dry without the extra sauce and we won't go back. read more

Terrible customer service, whoever the gentleman with the hair net is working today should not be in any service industry. Cooking without gloves and just rude and you can tell he really doesn't want to be here. I just hope the food is good. Never had a bad experience at WaBa Grills in California so we will see. read more

Food was delicious! I ordered for curbside delivery and my order came out very quickly. You get a good amount of food for the price. I would definitely come here again! read more

This is our last day in Arizona before we head back home and we wanted some yummy Asian fusion food. We had the way veggies and rice bowl with halfocado and wagu rice bowl with some pork and veggie dumplings! They were all so delicious, flavorful, and filling for a great price! We tried all three sauces and loved them all, but our favorite Serrano sauce! The place was very clean and the staff was very friendly! Definitely a new favorite on our list! Thank you! read more
