I needed a small bite to eat and decided to go to Waba Grill. I made a great choice. The mini chicken bowl with green onions was my choice and it was so delicious! The chicken is flavorful and tender, and the bowl has a great balance of protein, rice, and fresh veggies. It's filling without being too heavy, making it a perfect option for a quick and satisfying meal. Great taste, fresh ingredients, and a good portion for the price. Definitely worth trying! I wish I had purchased a regular size bowl. The staff were nice and the restaurant was clean. There is ample parking available as well. I recommend this restaurant. read more

Your workers are very rude over the phone. Instead of saying "come again" or "I didn't hear you can you repeat that?" They say "what". They also didn't give me enough sauce and they were also very rude in person. And they also didn't use a lot of chili sauce for my dumplings. Matter of fact they prepared the food like they didn't care and that's rude. And they also didn't let me make a review on the app. read more

WaBa Grill - Asian Fusion Near Me - Compton, California

Order 10 piece dumplings with a value dragon fruit drink and a steak plate with double dumplings and a large mango dragon fruit drink and asked for both the drinks to have no ice due to me traveling a long distance and not wanting the drinks to be watered down. I was told by Juleisy that they would not fill up my cups of if I wanted no ice they would only be able to fill it half way. I have been to many WaBa grills and other restaurants and have never been told this. Horrible experience. How are you going to make me get ice in my drink if I don't want it then tell me you're not not going to fill up the cups if I get no ice. Wow just wow. Never again. read more

I always call in my order at Waba Grill, and they always have it ready super fast. It's so easy and convenient--perfect when I'm on the go or just don't want to wait. The food is always fresh, delicious, and consistent every time. Great portions, great price. Can't go wrong here. read more

First time at this location. It was an excellent experience good, fast service, good hospitality, nice and clean friendly workers

Wow! Honestly best customer service from Yesenia (GM). I placed an online order on my phone to pickup a bowl and some gyozas . My time says 12:28 and I arrive around 12:30pm. There was so many people in there and also like 4 people in line. I get to cashier and she says to wait it will be out soon. I wait till 1240 nothing and give the benefit of the doubt to wait another 10mins which was already making me late to work. I was then upset, got up and asked for a refund. Later that day Yesenia called me, apologized, told me to come in next day to get the whole meal on them. She even gave me a receipt of the refund they issued me. I was already having a bad day and made up for it. As working as a manger for so many years and in customer service she is great! definitely deserves it all tysm I will be back soon read more

This is the only waba store I've came to that weights the rice the chicken ... the portions are extremely little I'm still hungry didn't get full... at other wabas I've been too I always leave food in my bowl this and they don't wight the rice or chicken this place is horrible I hated so much the only reason I come back is because it's the only one near me ...the rice is not even Evenly in the bowl .. I wish the option for rating this place would be 0 stars read more

WaBa Grill - Chicken waba bowl - Asian Fusion Near Me - Compton, California

I don't know who's the blame is it the owner is it the manager? Is it the way that the employees are trained but this is the only Waba grill and believe me I'm a huge lava grill customer whenever I'm in a different city. I do stop at Waba Grill. This one just happens to be the closest one to my home. And out of all the lava grills I've ever been to The portion size here is absolute thievery. The care that goes into my bowl is absolute garbage the way it's package presented the portion size like I'm so disappointed with my experience at the one Waba Grill. That's close to my home that I couldn't help but leave a review. Hopefully the sparks change that you guys stop robbing your customers, especially once they shop there on a daily and weekly basis That you give the right portion of rice, veggies, and meat that the avocado is properly cut and I just squished into my plate that you guys follow basic instructions like no sauce on my order please. And that the meat is properly cooked and that the rice is properly cooked. These are all experiences that I've had with this particular place. So either everyone needs to get fired and new people need to get hired and properly trained. Or the people that work there need to be told that they're not doing their job right and the next time I come over there everything better work right or I'm reporting this whole place to franchise stop messing with your daily customers. I don't care that things are expensive now in LA. You shouldn't be robbing me of my Meal read more

Usually me and my girl friend have a good experience at this Waba grill but today we're having a bad one! Why is there barely any meat on this ? And the avacado is old too! read more

WaBa Grill - Why is there barely any meat on this ? And the avacado is old too! - Asian Fusion Near Me - Compton, California

Our place were little we barely any food in it. The service was not good as they ignored me. When I asked why we received so little one girl kept her face frowned up with the attitude go to another Waba. This one is not worth it you'll still be hungryand you won't enjoy the experience read more

Came in to try to get something healthy and the guy at the register kept trying to upsell us and kept trying to add stuff to our order when we were insisting that we were not trying to order that. My girlfriend got the signature rice bowl and they charged us for a veggie bowl. Despite the fact we did not say that we wanted that and on top of that they gave us the completely wrong order. The register staff is a hot mess. read more

Disappointed, this place used to be good until whoever made my Waba bowl barely gave me any meat and chicken. Juat dumped a bunch of veggies. Lost a customer. read more

If you're VEGAN or VEGETARIAN DO NOT BUY HERE. I work nearby, have ordered a few times hoping I don't get any meat contaminants. It ALWAYS happens. I guess they don't understand why someone would order tofu. I've also told them about this problem and haven't corrected it. They also just newly added an online ordering fee. Trash location. read more

First time at a WaBa Grill - my food was delicious. My plate was full meaning it was worth every cent - they're not stingy. Staff were friendly ... courteous enough to tell me that I can eat in even after closing time. I would give it 5 stars but why do they close so early ? While eating outside the amount of people that cane bye was a lot! Maybe they should bump the hour to 9pm (common it's Saturday night). Will be back though .... read more

This meal was so fire .. didn't know this was open! Glad it opened down the street needed this healthy alternative in my life! #healthiswealth my favorite was the Wahba plate with brown rice ! read more

DISGUSTING!!! DISGUSTING!! DISGUSTING!!! Found a fly in my food and when I called to let the location know they asked to bring all my food back. My co workers and I were half way with our bowls so we just threw the rest away. When back at the location the manager picked up the fly from the dumpling and acted like it was just something from the grill. Mentioning it was pepper. Pepper does not have WINGS! Then gave me a hard time about refunding my money. I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THIS PLACE. The manger I spoke to was Jessina, very rude manager. read more

The Lady cashier which i didn't catch her name has an attitude problem. I came to pick up my order and i always check my bag to make sure my order is correct and i noticed utencils were missing so i told her and she got all fiesty saying it's in there and i said it's not and shes like show me the bag. Like what? Are you seriously freaking out about giving me a fork?!? I showed her the bag and when she saw she was wrong she just threw the fork in there and didnt even say anything. Super rude! Not sure if she was having a bad or if she doesn't like working there but regardless she should not be there with an attitude like that. read more

The cashiers have very bad attitudes and service because asking for a chopsticks and soy sauces.

Very friendly customer service. Food fresh and great taste what I expect from waba grill. My new favorite location

Been to this location several times without incident. Food is always consistent and a healthier alternative to typical fast food. I came in tonight to place an order for my friend and I and total came to $28.82. They typically bag everything and include sauces (packets) without asking customers what they prefer. Before leaving I asked for a few extra sauces. I was told that there would be an extra charge for sauce packets. I was not happy at all about this. I'm in here spending over $28 and I'm being told I have to pay extra for a few sauces. REALLY?!! I mean, I know times are tough, but this is outrageous!! I was then told that this was a new policy. Well, this "new policy" was not posted ANYWHERE and I addressed it with a manager after I left. On top of this, order was incorrect! Ordered a chicken bowl with white rice and received brown rice, which I do not like. Perhaps they should have more attentive and knowledgeable staff taking orders. I will not be coming back. read more
