The food at Waba Grill was excessively bland. It had no seasoning at all, adding salt did not help. The service was okay and the atmosphere was cafeteria-style. We will never return. read more

Average rating 3 stars, and I can see why, I thought since I was in town I could go to the fish hut market again, instead I chose Waba because it's been a while, I tried so many locations in Menifee, Moreno Valley and OC from last year, and I wanted to come back here, well too bad the employee didn't know what to do with me, I placed an order and proceeded to pay with my Mom EBT card, she said the location only do EBT cash, I said cash or food the same to me, she was confused, I asked if they had the machine, she said yes, I told her to let me swipe my card, she didn't know how to even turn on the EBT machine, not sure why she didn't, the machine doesn't respond to my card, doesn't matter how many time she swiped it, it didn't ask me to input my pin code, then she suggested if she could check my balance, of course I said No, then she suggested me to place the order online, hello I have the app on the phone, they don't take EBT on the app, I already known that, why else I had come in person for? Then she doesn't know what else to blame instead the machine, so I will say fix your machine because you don't advertise EBT at the door and you can't work it, maybe the reason it doesn't work was she didn't charge me, and try to look for my balance, whatever it is, the management needs to call EBT and resolve this issue so people can buy food here, yeah train your staff. I've been to many Waba but this one was not a good one. read more

Went to Waba today got some of them boom boom tacos just love the shrimp. Excellent got to try them. David was such a pleasure to work with very respectful and knew what he was doing. thank you read more

when I walked in the girl was rude and asked if I had an online order then When I said no she looked annoyed that she had to take my order. Also I told the worker I wanted no onions and she said ok and she still gave me my plate with onions and when I made a face that I was not satisfied that my plate had onions she just told me have a good day in a mocking tone. It's sad because I actually like waba but the environment there is just not it. No need to be rude because I wasn't rude. read more

Food is food. The quantity is good and the quality is good. I enjoy the time I have been here in Hemet just moving here not to long ago. I appreciate that I feel welcomed since I come almost everyday in the evening for a dinner . I'd like to thank the staff for being awesome and helpful and I'd like to thank Stephanie ( I apologize if I spelled it wrong) for being an awesome employee and having a conversation with me. read more

I was there a few months ago and an employee had no shoes on for some reason..The same person also tends to get my order wrong every time I go & kinda has an attitude. The food is good though! read more

Customer service was good, my meal was healthy and yummy, cleanness of the drink's area could be better And the dining in area could be better, however, I've seen way worse , overall, it was a good experience. The food is not cheap. :) read more

The staff was friendly and so attentive! the store was also clean and welcoming! Will be returning thank you Alberto !

Great experiences, good food, Saira great customer service, mostly definitely coming back

If I could write 0 stars I would, Juliana gave worst customer service. I had to repeat what I ask for, she has a horrible attitude every time I order or ask for something. I asked for waba sauce and she said we don't have any with an attitude, I asked for the manager and she gave me a dirty look. read more

Omg! This was such a nasty experience and never will be returning here I came in today, got a mini bowl with potstickers and a side of potstickers I ate a whole bowl before I realized there was a balled up lint I picked up and it was scrunched up hair come to find out all those potstickers that I ate fell on the ground. I will never return to this location ever, and it disappoints me in the fast food industry makes me not want to eat fast food. read more

Too bad it's in the corner where the homeless hang out, that's kind of a bummer, but I love the shrimp bowl I have never seen such plump shrimp wish it had more in it but the items are good and will fill you up. Give it a shot lunch and dinner, carry your wallet but it's worth every penny. read more

Love this place! Great veggie and protein options!!! My go to when I'm trying to eat health and get full

I was so happy waba opened near me! It's clean and so far the employees are friendly! Good is delicious and you do not get over loaded with rice, perfect combination of meat, veggies, and rice. read more

Unbelievably rude employees. Just spent almost $30 on food and we were going to eat inside this particular establishment and the restroom was not functional. There was no way to wash my hands or use the restroom. Not even hand sanitizer to use either. I asked the employees and they said the bathroom door handle was broken. So I asked where they use the restroom and they say they don't and another said they go next door. It isn't the business next doors responsibility to allow them to use the restroom. When I asked for the corporate office number they said "it's online" and clearly didn't care about this situation. Will not ever go to this location again. read more

I came here after a long day at work and I was greeted by Aileen, she took my order and gave great food recommendations! I'll for sure be back here! Thank you Aileen read more

Food came out in a timely manner. Service was great thanks to, I believe her name was Aileen. She was a cashier, very nice. Thank you guys for the amazing food it was hot still and very tasteful. read more

When u call these people they answer the phone by saying, "hello" as if it's their personal phone and not a business. Food is ok

Can't get the rewards points because I ordered off my phone? Really? Why would I want to come back then? This place is cold and depressing too. No music, very sad vibe inside there. Clearly the staff hate working there judging by how rude they are. read more

Presentation and taste was excellent. Ordered the spicy chicken and teriyaki and vegi bowl . Friendly staff , restaurant very clean

Definitely got food poisoning from here. Real bad. Went in once I got better to order a drink and just pay attention to how they were handling foods. They onlyvwear one glove and use the knife hand bar handed but then laybthe knife on the food. Don't wipe the cutting board in between so there is some cross contamination goin on there I'm sure. Spare yourself and just dont eat here untik they clean up the training. read more

David is so awesome! Positive attitude and friendly. Food quality was great, and their overall service was quick.

+Smells better than the other Waba grills. +Seems to be a healthier fast food choice +Taste good -I told them to add sauce for the dumplings when they asked what sauce before they gave it to me. I went home and there was no sauce. What the heck it is in the photo of the order for dumplings unless it's false advertisi Update -I ordered the beef bowl, the beef tasted like it was not fresh but frozen. If you don't know that's when it's got that hardness to it. Fresh is more tender. Update -Ordered waba bull, brown rice, veggies. Came with white rice. I didn't check until I got back to work... read more

WaBa Grill - Dumplings with no sauce since they didn't give me any.. - Asian Fusion Near Me - Hemet, California

I am a vegetarian and ordered a plant based steak bowl. The girl that took my order didn't listen and they gave me regular steak. I drive home to find the incorrect order. I tried to call several times and could not get through. Once I drove all the way back and told them they have me the wrong order, both girls working gave me an attitude and said "we'll your receipt says steak" I said I'm a vegetarian, why would I order steak? They again gave me attitude and made a fuss about making me the bowl I ordered. Do not go here, the staff are extremely rude. They should be fired. read more

Every time I come here there's always workers complaining about customers or being rude to customers. I like the food but dread going in and seeing the workers. A few weeks ago one of the girls got annoyed because I called the steak bowls "beef" like honey go to school because steak and beef are the same. Today I went in and one of the guys that works there was complaining to his coworker about rude customers all while I was waiting to get help at the cash register. I was standing at the register for a good 2 minutes while he was just going off and there were two other customers inside waiting for their food. Idc how annoyed you are it's common sense not to be acting like that on the job. read more

Jocelyn's attitude was very short and not helpful. Took my order and I requested a drink. When I got to the drink station the tea was gone ( granted it was late and they might have taken it down) so I look for the Sobé. The Sobé was just water, so I asked if they had anymore Sobé, she looked at me and then the soda fountain and said no. (It's a Friday, you have a weekend coming up and your already out of a fountain drink? Any one who's worked in the food industry knows that the weekend are tough and to not have proper stock is asking for a harder weekend). So I kindly ask "well, is there any way you can refund me my drink since you don't have what I want?" "Um I don't think I can do that" she tells me! My smile drops and I ask "are you serious?" She go on to tell me she can't. So I ask for the franchisees number or contact info. She doesn't have that either...so there is no way I can contact the owners? (Jerry is the name she gave me) but no other information. Other than the employee, the food was ok. Dry white meat for an extra charge. This is not the first time this week for the dry white meat. Well just say three time in a week is pretty consistent (embarrassed to post that but I like waba). Just not this one anymore, I can deal with dry meat but bad service and dry meat? Yea I'll pass... read more

If I could do negative stars I would. Alejandra the "manager" has the worst customer service skills. We waited 35 mins before we went up and asked where our food was. She said our order receipt was misplaced. So I asked for my money back. After all that waiting she still charged us for the drinks. And we were never even offered anything for the inconvenience. Typical Hemet customer service for you right here at WaBa grill. read more

Ofelia was really sweet, great customer service. 10/10 would recommend I will most definitely be back

I'm glad there is a closer location to my house and I don't have to drive all the way to San Jacinto anymore. The store is clean and the staff is nice, they were attentive and even brought my food over to my table. Looks like I'll be making another visit soon. Keep up the great work. read more

So I thought that my last visit to a Waba Grill was bad but this location blew them out of the water! So I preordered my food at 7pm today, I set the pickup time for 8pm since I was meeting up with my sister a couple towns over for dinner so I ordered from a local in her town. I was a little late due to traffic so I arrived at 8:10pm and pulled into the curbside pickup parking space. I called the number to let them know I have arrived and it went straight to voicemail and said the mailbox was completely full. So I ended up going inside the location even though I was trying my best to social distance. I waited about 5 minutes inside the location before I was able to speak with an employee and in that time I noticed that an employee was picking up the phone slightly and hanging up immediately every time the phone rang. That explains why I wasn't able to call for my curbside pickup, so I finally speak to an employee and she said that my order is not ready so I sit and wait. 20 minutes later I was called up and looked through my order and its missing half of the items that I ordered, so I mentioned it to the employee and she said they must have mistaken my big order for an accidental double order... Even though there were no doubles of anything in my order, each item was completely unique. So I waited some more and they finally give me my complete order and I ended up leaving closer to 9pm instead of shortly after 8pm like I had planned. The cherry on top of all of this was that when I got home the containers were very light, one of the reasons I love Waba Grill is they don't skimp on the food but these containers were pathetic. I want to make it clear that this review is directed at the owner/management of this location and not the employee's. The location look severely understaffed and I could see the stress, frustration, and exhaustion on all of the employee's faces. It's sad to see that the location was literally an hour and a half behind on orders. I am sure that more employees would have solved all of the issues that I experienced today. read more

First time at this location and my chicken was undercooked. Asked the cashier if I could have some that was cooked thoroughly to which she simply took the bowl back without any sort of response. Then I saw her take the bowl back and put the chicken back on the grill rather than giving me a fresh batch... Overall the service was poor and the serving size seems much smaller than other WaBa Grill locations. Hoping this was just an isolated incident, but it was quite disappointing. read more

Two trips in a row well before closing (over 2 hours) where the iced teas were both empty. It's getting more painful to eat here as the service keeps declining. Sometimes talking to the cashier is like talking to a brick wall. Being too lazy to refill your iced tea at 740pm when you close at 10pm is just unacceptable. Then, the cashier in training wanted to argue with me when I asked for garlic sauce that all the sauces are to my right. Yes, all sauces but the garlic sauce. This restaurant is on life support when it comes to keeping my business. I was eating here daily during the week and have reduced that number considerably. read more

It's a hit or miss with this place today I bought my daughter a chicken bowl and the chicken was actually very good and no chewy skin parts . And the cashier was actually friendly . I saw the sign after I and already made my purchase for buy two bowls for$10 I wish she would of offered me that special I would have bought it . read more

Review update number 3, this place is hit or miss, seems that they need more training or strong management on site, food portions are different every time, also what happen to waba sauce? They have a little squeeze bottle that sits at random tables WTH? read more
