The food at this Wabba Grill was fresh, tasty, and had AMAZING portions. Service was quick, and easy, and the drive through was very efficient. Pricing is high, but that's what you get for this type of fast food. Would highly recommend the chicken/beef combo with pot stickers. Delicious!! read more

**3 stars** I had the steak and chicken bowl with half veggies and half rice. It was fine--nothing bad, but pretty average overall. The chicken was decent, but the steak seemed like a lower-grade cut and was almost too sweet for my taste. The sauces also leaned sweeter than I prefer, which made the whole bowl feel a little one-note. For me, this was more of a functional meal than something I would go out of my way to crave. It filled me up, gave me a reasonable mix of protein, carbs, and vegetables, and got the job done. I got it to go, so I cannot really speak to the ambiance, but the place seemed clean enough from what I saw. There is also plenty of parking, which is a plus. Good enough for a quick, healthier-ish option, but not especially memorable. read more

Gave two stars because the young man at the counter was pleasant. Worst WaBa bowl I have had, they are practically shredding and spreading what taste like a cross between ground beef and steak, the chicken was also extremely sparse and fatty . Told them easy rice and the bowl had a lot of rice and a lot of vegetables but hardly any meat. Basically paid 15 dollars for a few ( 3-4) good bites until I said nah, I can't do this. I do go to waba frequently and this was not good in any way but the man's good disposition that waited on me. read more

I will NEVER EAT HERE AGAIN. You are PATHETIC, Waba. I JUST PAID $15 for 1 lb and 6 oz of white rice with my measly topping of chicken/beef SPRINKLED ON IT. See my photo, I literally scraped off my measly total 3oz of chicken/beef, and weighed the meat seperately, and weighed my white rice WHICH WAS 1 lb and 6 ounces!!!! ALMOST A POUND AND A HALF OF WHITE RICE. I literally paid $15 for white rice. Go outta business you RIP OFF!!!! read more

WaBa Grill - 1lb 6 oz of WHITE RICE to make me THINK ITS A FULL MEAL. WHERE THE F IS THE MEAT!!! 3oz IS NOTHONG!!! - Asian Fusion Near Me - Fountain Valley, California

The bowl was well served and overall cooked good and good ratio of the different veggies. But I can justify the price that I just paid of 19.99 for a bowl with extra chicken and only veggies. I feel like I got robbed. I recently went to another place where I ordered the same and paid only 12.00 and the bowl was great!! I don't think I will be coming back to Waba with these prices I can't justify the price tag read more

WaBa Grill - Receipt - Asian Fusion Near Me - Fountain Valley, California

Well, I'm pretty annoyed. I just went and ordered the plantspired bowl, no rice, no cabbage, (because they just cannot understand what easy cabbage means so I finally just stopped having it). I said easy carrots lots of broccoli... I got 3/4 carrots and four pieces of broccoli. oh, and they made me pay two dollars extra because I didn't want rice. Which would've been fine. Had they given me what I asked for but since I had to throw half of my bowl away, I'm definitely upset. I also called to speak to a manager and then I would not be leaving this review, but there was no manager available so here. I am leaving a one star review. Please listen to your people when they place the orders cause it's really Annoying to not get what we want. read more

2nd time coming here through drive thru and 2nd time they messed up on my order. They can't even provide any utensils!

I'm extremely disappointed with my recent visit. I ordered a steak bowl and once again was given a very small portion of steak...definitely not worth the $13 I paid. This has happened multiple times, and I finally called corporate to share my concern, but nothing was done. For the price, I expect a fair portion, and unfortunately, that's not what I've been getting. This will be my last visit. read more

The customer service experience here is completely ruined by the manager's toxic attitude. She is extremely rude, disrespectful, and talks down to her employees right in the open. It's clear she puts an immense amount of unfair pressure on them, and I even overheard her threatening a staff member during my visit. It made the entire atmosphere incredibly uncomfortable. I prefer to support businesses that treat their employees with basic human decency. Will not be back! read more

Food and service was 10/10 the lady there today was nice helped me out and my food came so nicely and portion was great. I also asked for sauce and she didn't just give me one little sauce she gave me the amount anyone would really use. Thank you appreciate had to write bc fast food spots nowadays are soooo ridiculous read more

WaBa Grill - Chicken Bowl - Asian Fusion Near Me - Fountain Valley, California

My girlfriend loves the food here. We had dinner some time ago last week here. I was not satisfied with the food and the service. They treated me good the last time. My food seemed undercooked, and they messed my order up. I wont be eating here anymore. Its up to my girl whether she continues or not. read more

Waba is always bomb they gave me the escabeche and green onions like I asked . Always a pleasure

9.0/10 It's been a year since Waba Grill released their Boom Boom Tacos and I'm coming back for more. You can pick from Chicken, Ribeye Steak, Shrimp or Tofu. I've had: Boom Boom Shrimp Taco Trio $10.69 | Shrimp Veggie Bowl $13.99 | Mini Chicken Bowl $5.29 or 'Kids Eat Free' offer with purchase of entrée, Monday - Friday After 4 PM Code: KIDS, Weekend Code: KIDZ. The Shrimp is my favorite. Whatever protein you choose is brushed with Waba Sauce. While I normally am not the biggest fan of teriyaki sauce, I really enjoy theirs because it's not too sweet. They don't go overboard with the sauce and you can always ask for more on the side. The Tacos come with a Sesame Slaw, Green Onions and a sweet, tangy Boom Boom Sauce. The Slaw gives the Taco a nice crunch and the Tortilla is nice and soft. I believe the tortilla is a mix of Corn and Flour. The Shrimp Veggie Bowl comes with a lot of rice, you could even save some for meal prep later. The rice comes perfectly cooked. The reason why I love the Shrimp here is because every single time it's always been tender and well-seasoned. We are not getting any overcooked, rubbery shrimp here. I will say the Chicken is growing on me, it's juicy and tender, and I like that it has a nice charred flavor. The steak is also good, it's nice and tender, but would probably be my last choice just because the seasonings are not my favorite but this is just a personal preference, try it for yourself. I think one entree is enough, a good amount for one person. Also, did you know that they have a Kids Eat Free deal? All weekend long and after 4 PM Monday through Friday you can buy any entree at regular price and get a free Chicken or Tofu Mini Bowl. The Mini Bowl is also a good size for an adult if you aren't super hungry, or even good as a snack. I ordered everything through the app and picked up everything in the drive-thru. I hope they consider eco-friendly initiatives in the future, as I didn't spot any specific sustainability practices or see any mention of them on their website. They're located in a shopping plaza with plenty of free parking in their lot. Service was really friendly. The interior is cute, modern and casual with plenty of inside seating, however, not sure about outside seating. There was hardly a wait when I came on a Friday at 3:30 PM. For the quality and quantity, I think the price is fair. read more

Everything here is really good, and pretty healthy. The beef and chicken bowls with their Waba sauce are delicious. Even their salads are very flavorful and filling. This location has a drive-thru which is great, but there's plenty of seating inside with big and small tables, and a good size patio. It's always great option for lunch or dinner. read more

I was in drive through I always go here because it's close to my house . I always ask for 2 sides of onions. they always forget it or don't put extra . They rush to move the line today they made me pull over to move the line. but they messed up my order. I called and they said they couldn't do anything about it . Will not be back here wasting my time read more

Wanted a quick more "healthier" option and went earlier. Got a chicken with veggies bowl to go and the cashier was nice. My complaint is the bowl had tiny scraps of chicken when I saw another worker cooking a brand new batch of what looked like to be chicken read more

Love this place been here since they opened. Whats great is that its fresh and healthy food for kids. The kids love the salmon plate and the portions are generous. read more

I love WaBa Grill for many reasons: 1) It's relatively healthy 2) It's relatively cheap 3) It's relative convenient to eat if you're on the go Conceptually, WaBa Grill is very much like a Chipotle - you pick and choose your rice (brown, white, or half and half), your protein (chicken, steak, or both), and your choice of sauce (WaBa, Spicy WaBa, and Garlic Serrano). Should you desire veggies, that can be a side option as well. That Spicy WaBa sauce is definitely the way to go - it kinda binds everything together and creates a delectable bite of chicken and rice. I recently opted for an all chicken bowl over white rice with spicy WaBa sauce ($10.87) and this was definitely a game changer. I find the carrot + broccoli too undercooked for my liking, so I was relieved to know that I could opt out of that option. While the bowl itself comes with sauce, I suggest you add more sauce should your bowl come lacking. I DoorDash from this location often and it has yet to fail me. Easy, affordable - this is a easy go to lunch. read more

If you get the Thai iced tea, be sure to ask for light ice or easy ice. They fill the darn thing with ice so it's barely any tea. 3-4 sips and it's done read more

Love the drive thru. Food was hot chicken was not dry. And will return more often since I work in the area.

For me, my family and I mostly got our money's worth. To be honest, the food was tasty, but just had to wait about 20 minutes for it. The place was mostly clean, but some tables were left with a little bit of crumbs or white rice here and there. But overall, pretty nice read more

Needed a quick lunch and Waba sounded perfect! When I got there, there was only a couple cars in the drive-thru. At first I was going to rate 4 stars because it took so long to move people through the drive-thru, but once I got back to my office and started eating, Whoa! It was so delish! I got the combo beef/chicken bowl - the meat wasn't dry, and the veggies were a nice al dente Plus I got some of their dumplings, and whatever the sauce is that comes with the dumplings --- YUM!! It's a tasty sweet spicy sauce that was a perfect dipping sauce! So I guess good food is definitely worth the wait! Just know that going in! read more

WaBa Grill - Outside 8:09 am - Asian Fusion Near Me - Fountain Valley, California

They need to quit it with majority of rice and little protein. Thats why I stopped coming here.

CHECK YOUR FOOD/DRINK I came here recently and I had ordered a value combo. Everything was good until I opened my order. My order was chicken brown rice bowl, a chicken taco (with no sauce or lettuce, I let service know too before hand), and a starry for drink. The bowl was good. The chicken taco had all the topping I DID NOT want in it and the Cup of my Starry Had Dirty Particle floating in it. Double check your Food/Drink before leaving the restaurant. read more

WaBa Grill - Chicken and steak bowl. Extra skimpy on the chicken - Asian Fusion Near Me - Fountain Valley, California

I love the concept of a fast yet healthy approach to food. Rice bowls being one of my favorite second to a good ol' salad and go drive thru. My grandma and myself ordered fairly quickly. I had to use the restroom and realized you needed a key to get in... asked for the key and had to be let in by and employee. I don't know that's always so weird to me. Anyhow, no paper towels in the bathroom. That is my top pet peeve with establishments. I work in the healthcare field and that is such a red flag for multiple reasons. To the food - sweet and spicy chicken was good but their WaBa sauce was hardly anything awesome. I was hungry so I scarfed half the bowl down. I just couldn't get myself to like the food or the place... I guess Yogi's sauce in a chicken rice bowls is far superior. I just can't shake the premium flavor they offer and WaBa just fell short. read more

WaBa Grill - Asian Fusion Near Me - Fountain Valley, California

My clinic ordered from WaBa Grill & it was my first time having it so I was excited to try something new. I chose the salmon veggies bowl. Mistake, HUGE mistake. It was cold when it got delivered & the WaBa sauce that it was supposed to come with was nonexistent. The salmon was so bland, texture was off & as hard as cardboard that I could barely cut it into pieces without having trouble. The veggies were disgustingly moist & chewy. Everything was just inedible. I thought it couldn't get any worse but after about 10 minutes of taking a few bites of my meal, I felt so sick to my stomach that I was actually debating on going home. That's how bad it was. This place has 4 stars? Horrifying. If I can give 0 stars, best believe I would. I can't believe that the meal was even worth $10 because it's made my list of top 3 worst - if I'd even count this as a meal! read more

WaBa Grill - Salmon with veggies and rice - Asian Fusion Near Me - Fountain Valley, California

In 2021, I went to this WaBa Grill. I ordered a Plantspired Steak Veggie Bowl [Plantspired Bowl] inside of the restaurant. I waited for my order inside of the restaurant. A worker behind the counter gave me what I thought was my order in a plastic bag. On the counter where customers order, I opened the bag. When I opened the bag, I saw a long, straight black hair, which was maybe a foot long, trapped between the clear plastic lid and the black plastic bowl that contained the food. I think that the strand of hair must have become trapped between the lid and the bowl when one of the workers put the lid on the bowl. While still at the counter where customers order, I took off the clear plastic lid, I took off and removed the long black hair from the bowl and food, and I put sauce on the contents of the bowl. I did not mention the long black hair to any worker, and I do not know if any of the workers ever noticed the long black hair. I was going to eat the food, despite the contamination caused by the long black hair that was previously on top of the food. Before I ate the contents of the bowl, the worker behind the counter said that the order was not my order without mentioning anything about the long black hair. I gave the worker the bowl, and I heard what sounded like the worker throwing it away. I waited for some time as a new bowl was being prepared. The worker gave me the new bowl, and the worker apologized for the wait without mentioning anything about the long black hair. I think the worker took my bowl, and gave me a new one, not because of the long black hair, but because I think the worker who prepared the food the first time accidentally prepared the animal-based, real meat Veggie Bowl instead of the Plantspired version of the Veggie Bowl with the plant-based, vegan meat that I ordered. I opened the bag, and took off the lid on the counter like before. I squeezed sauce from the two different sauce bottle dispensers. I ate the food, and I noticed that it tasted soapy. I performed investigations in 2022, because I was concerned that soap was intentionally introduced into my Plantspired Bowl in 2021 by a worker at the restaurant in retaliation for having to redo the order. In 2022, I performed five General Investigations to see if Plantspired Bowls taste soapy in general by eating a Plantspired Bowl with WaBa Sauce and WaBa Hot Sauce from five different WaBa Grills that were not this WaBa Grill. During these five General Investigations, the Plantspired Bowls did not taste soapy to me. In 2022, I performed five Specific Investigations to see if Plantspired Bowls taste soapy at this WaBa Grill in particular by eating a Plantspired Bowl with WaBa Sauce and WaBa Hot Sauce five times from this WaBa Grill. During these five Specific Investigations, the Plantspired Bowls did not taste soapy to me. I do not know if soap was intentionally introduced into my Plantspired Bowl in 2021 by a worker at the restaurant in retaliation for having to redo the order, but my five General Investigations made me conclude that neither the Plantspired Bowl recipe, the WaBa Sauce recipe, nor the WaBa Hot Sauce recipe taste soapy to me, and my five Specific Investigations made me conclude that this WaBa Grill does not normally make Plantspired Bowls that taste soapy to me. read more

Food tastes much better than my last experience years ago, but they are heavy on the rice and don't give enough meat. Boooo.

I got food poisoning here, got it last night thinking it was nothing but I woke up with diarrhea and naseua and sharp stomach pains. I got the salmon bowl and to me it looked like they were rushing the cooking process and didn't cook it well. I am hoping it isn't nothing bad but i've been having this symptoms now for 24 hours and it's not fun. NEVER eat salmon here ! read more

This location put the nail in the coffin for me and Waba Grill. Just bad food. Wouldn't feed this to my dog. Bitter staff. Tight with the portions. Bowl packed with rice topped with meat scraps.
