It's been a minute I've came here. This was my original Waba Grill I had 1st ever. In this location and has been hooked since! Love Waba Grill. Came here to grab a Rib Eye bowl for my oldest son. Ordering was really easy and fast. Associate was really nice and I received my bowl pretty fast. Rib eye steak is pretty tender & good. Located in the same plaza as Rite Aid. Starbucks & right next to Sushi Pop. Lots of seatings available. Including table booths. It's like any basic Waba Grill fast food restaurant. Parking is pretty easy to find. Tip~ Download the app to receive deals coupons, earn points towards savings & a free bowl on your birthday.

I come here 2 to 3 times a week. But I will never come back for lunch again. I order the 2 bowl special and ask for extra hot sauce and they told me 35 cents additional per packet. . I can see you have a counter full. What makes it worse she was rude about it. Come on! You being serious. You lost me as customer.

Chicken plate, sans rice. Extra salad.

My family gets take out for dinner from this location about twice a month. Food is always cooked fresh to order. Staff is friendly and our special requests are always made with ease and no error. We will continue to pick up food here for a quick and easy dinner on the nights we go to the gym.

chicken bowl

Came here Tuesday for lunch. Had the lunch special: 2 small chicken bowls, 2 side, and 2 drinks for $17. The chicken bowls were good but pretty small, I would have preferred to have. larger chicken bowl and no side. We had dumplings for our sides and they were okay, not much flavor. The food was fresh, but I would opt for larger portions. This place reminds me of Flame Broiler.

Curbside order. It shows on my app that the order was completed but they refused to bring it out to me.
Jocelyn A.

Extremely rude cashier woman over the phone would not bring me the curbside order that I purchased through the app. She claimed they no longer did it and gave me attitude about it. I ordered curbside from them a few weeks prior and they brought my order out with no issue. If it's no longer offered then make sure that the app shows it is not an option. In the mean time, you guys should honor what your guests paid for and not give attitude about it. Or at least be like I'm sorry we don't offer that anymore but I can do it for you this time since the app has not been updated. I've requested a refund and emailed the feedback support email provided on the website but haven't received anything. It's been a week. Y'all lost a customer.

WaBa Bowl with Veggies + Avocado
Gje S.

All the staff were friendly and welcoming, and the restaurant itself was very clean. Seating was blocked off; would assume so, due to Covid. The wait for my order was pleasant, as it didn't take long for the food to come out. I love the fact that they have an open kitchen so we can see how the food actually gets prepared - not pulling meat out of bags and microwaving. The food looked and tasted super fresh. I ordered the WaBa bowl (steak & chicken) with veggies and added avocado. Look at the size of these portions. I don't know how she closed the lid. I'm so full I can barely type this review. The owner seems to support local community activities, as I saw numerous plaques of gratitude from little league baseball teams. There was a photo and autograph from Tommy Lasorda framed too. How cool is that?

I have had better food from other waba grills. Disappointing. In the photo you can see it looks like little rocks. I'm not sure from where they came from (I'm thinking they didn't clean the rice) but this shouldn't be in food. We shouldn't have to worry about chewing on something hard and potentially hurting our teeth while eating. Do better and serve quality food. I won't be ordering from this location again . I called to request a refund for my food since I didn't enjoy it. The manager said he would refund me. I will update when I get the refund to make sure they kept their word. Update: I received a message from Victor and he showed me proof that he refunded me. He also requested the picture I posted to my review so I sent it to him. I will change my review from 1 star to 3 stars because it was nice that Victor did this.

Steak & Chicken Bowl

Great customer service! Friendly people. I recommend this location. We ordered 20 bowls for our event and it was ready for pick up on time.

I have recently been seeing Pollo Campero around while driving and have been intrigued to try. We…read morefinally decided to try one night and it did not disappoint. We tried the spicy chicken sandwich and 4 piece meal with fried chicken (legs and thigh). The spicy chicken sandwich has a really good sauce on it that has a nice kick to it so we asked for more of this on the side to dip the chicken and fries in. The fried chicken pieces were crispy and juicy! For sides we got the yucca fries and Cole slaw. It all came together for the perfect combo. A friend ordered empanadas and they were also tasty. The woman taking our order was kind and patient with us since it was our first time and were a little indecisive on what to order (we wanted to try it all). They also allowed us to move the tables together to accommodate our group, gave us extra sauce, and cleaned our table afterwards. I definitely want to come back!

I'm a regular customer as I work close by, the only thing I suggest is to give the receipt and don't wait until the customer ask you for the receipt

Very long wait times…read more Went in on a Tuesday at 6:45 pm. 4 other parties in the restaurant. Ordered food at 6:57pm and food came out at 7:36 Looks like a skeleton crew with only one server and maybe one person in the back. Food was pretty good but not worth such a long wait. Especially if you're not doing ayce. We only got an order of fries and 24 wings. It shouldn't take over 30 minutes to receive at least our appetizer first. Honestly think the business needs to hire more to support in the kitchen because this wait was a while. Only thing that made it better is they gave us a free set of extra fries and a drink on the house.

They have changed locations and are located with Tokyo Eats but the food is still amazing and…read moredelicious! The bibimbap beef burrito is big and filled with lots of flavorful goodness! We ordered 24 wings and split it to try the soy garlic, K-sweet chili and Seoul spicy. Oh my! Generous size and served piping hot. Crunchy outside with tender chicken inside. Each one was very tasty and the spicy one hits you after a bit. So good! The K-pop street tacos were also very good and served with a spicy sauce. So glad they're still around. It's been a while since we came and we're happy and satisfied. Plenty of seating and the service is good. Attended to in good time and didn't have to wait long to get our food. Love the Japanese Cherry blossom decor mixed with K-Pop flare.

I liked: Peach Mango Pie…read more Chickenjoy Deluxe Chicken Sandwich Pineapple Quencher This was ok: Mashed Potatoes Visited the Jollibee FFXIV collab and the menu has fine #goodeats. The Peach Mango Pie is packed with flavor and leans very sweet, but the crispy shell makes it stand out. The Chickenjoy lives up to the hype, super moist with solid flavor and even better dipped in gravy. The Deluxe Chicken Sandwich tastes fresh, though it does not quite compete with the top-tier chicken sandwich spots. The Pineapple Quencher is refreshing but definitely on the sweeter side. The mashed potatoes were the only miss for me, a bit artificial and lacking that fluffy texture you want. Service was impressively quick considering how long the line was for the collab. The team kept things moving and orders came out efficiently. Big plus there. Ambiance is where this place really shines. The FFXIV theming is done incredibly well both inside and outside. Easily a 10 out of 10 for presentation and immersion. Only downside was they were out of the blue aether drink, which felt like a bit of a miss for the full experience.

So grateful that Jollibee was open late after our long Disney day! This was my first time trying…read moreJollibee in the States. Everything was delicious, although the Chickenjoy wasn't very warm. The palabok fiesta was my favorite. FYI if you're coming for the Final Fantasy collab, they cut off selling the meals around 10:30 pm. They were also out of the Blue Aether drink.

This location is set up a bit differently than their other spot, it offers order-at-the-counter for take out as well as dine in options, which makes it super convenient for a casual meal or quick stop. The menu is huge, with tons of options, so I'm already looking forward to coming back and trying more of their food. If the salsa is any indication, it's going to be worth it.

The Molcajete was a showstopper, but everything was muy, muy Bueno. Thank you Jesse, Brenda and staff for a fabulous meal, and for making us feel so welcome.

Went today to finally satisfy that craving I've had since I got it recommended to me, and was NOT disappointed. First of all, the service was awesome. The lady that took my order was very kind and helpful with menu choices, had a smile on her face, and had a friendly and outgoing demeanor. There's plenty of seating inside if you want to take a little bit of a break from moving around all day. The food here is great. I got the chicken souvlaki pita wrap, and my girlfriend got the lamb/beef gyro wrap. Both were really tasty. The meat in these is cooked to perfection and seasoned beautifully. The pita is soft and the sauce is really nice and complimentary. We do wish there was a bit more veggies in these wraps, as the meat can get rich and overpowering at times, but other than that, no complaints. Nick's fries are your classic loaded fries with sauce, feta, meat, and green onions. Their fries taste great on their own, and even better in these. The feta does get a bit overpowering but its not a complaint for me... I LOVE FETA. Overall, my experience at Nick the Greek was really positive. I'd give everything an 8.5/10. 100% gets a recommendation from me and I WILL be coming back!
