    Every time I come here, the food is so good. Today when I came in, Liz had a big smile on her face, she's always so helpful in assisting me with my needs. Definitely will be back again.

    We ordered 2 beef tacos & the chicken plate with all the yummy sides

    The steak tacos are so delicious. We are greeted by Maria who took our order . And Blanca was so kind & she did the tacos for me . Both ladies have such positive energy. They both are always in movement making sure tables are clean , soda area is clean & making sure everyone is good . I love eating at this location

    CHICKEN BOWL WITH MAGGOT ON CARROT

    NEGATIVE STARS!!! I went to this location today at 1pm. Ordered chicken bowl. Drove all the way home to finally eat because I was starving after a doctor appointment. Took two bites and saw a maggot in my food. I called the location & was advised to call the manager. I was given the number & he did not answer, so I had to drive alll the way back to show them & get my money back. When I arrived & showed the man at the counter, he called the cook and showed him as they're discussing in Spanish. Then he called his manager & I told him I already called & he didn't answer. I want my money back please so I can leave. He spoke to his manager & finally gave me my money back. PLEASE DO NOT COME HERE!!! THEY LIKE TO SERVE MAGGOTS IN THERE FOOD.

    Huge and delicious!

    Super clean inside and very friendly employees. Our bowls were delicious and the portion size is awesome. You might be our new favorite place to get food for our late night work lunches.

    I love waba grill! It's one of my go to places after a workout! I was so disappointed to see the salmon bowl! Keep in mind I spent over 30 dollars on three bowls. I basically paid 12 dollars for a BOWL OF RICE ! The employees look so mad when I asked if this was a the right portion. She was like yeah so rude! She said it was gonna be 8 dollars for another small prince of salmon. She looked so unhappy there and ended up a side of chicken to basically make a whole bowl!!!

    Chicken Bowl

    Chicken not fully cooked through and placed cold in bowl. Employees looked annoyed when I ordered.

    Been to a few waba grill spots this the first time I find something in my food!! I'm glad I looked threw it because if I didn't I probably wouldn't have noticed cause of how hungry I was service was good but the workers should probably do date check ups on the vegetables

    Is the chicken dark meat(thigh) or white meat(breast)?

    Dark meat but you can "upgrade" to white meat for like $1 more or something.

    i usually get the cali or angel burrito which is SO GOOD!!! this last time i got the shrimp burrito…read moreand it was delicious. my friends are obsessed with cali tacos and now i lowkey am too the burritos, especially the angel, are HUGE like the size of my forearm. if im really hungry ill finish it all in one sitting but most of us leave some for the next day

    The concept of Cali Tacos was inspired by the Torres family's decades of experience running…read moreSarita's Taco Shop in San Diego County, where they built a strong local following over more than 20 years. Their goal was to bring the bold flavors and oversized San Diego-style burritos and tacos to Orange County. These lumberjack portions definitely make you like you're getting bang for your buck. It's crazy to think they would be able to profit in the amount of servings they give, but in reality, it's really quantity over quality. I got their Angel burrito and I remembered it was a humungous! I was just so happy to have lunch and dinner for later. It was jammed packed with protein and their sauces were good too. Make sure to not have any obligations afterwards, because you'll most likely knock out due to food coma. The only sad part about this experience is that I've had eaten here 3x already and I've been stricken with stomach ache twice already, so that's when I know that there's something not fresh about the place. I usually have a strong stomach for greasy or unhealthy food but there's just something here that always messes me up. So eat with caution if you come here! But the value is there but not worth the trouble if you know what I mean.

    Gosh, I miss Taco Boss…read more My husband and I try to venture out to other taco places. Taco Boss is our measurement for all taco spots lol If it doesn't meet the Taco Boss standards, than it's garbage lol They have the best tacos. The tacos de papa are some of my favorite around. The shrimp tacos are great. Service is fine. They work hard to make the food fresh. Ambiance is usually busy. Sometimes there's a line. Great tacos!

    I was craving carne asada fries and found this spot on Yelp. Ive never been here before so of…read morecourse I was excited. Let's get to the ratings. Carne asada fries (no beans) 7.5 out of 10 Tomatoes were finely chopped with lime and placed right on top of the fries. The carne asada was perfectly seasoned and served in a generous portion, making this easy to share. Overall, it was really good, but I do wish the tomatoes weren't so juicy since they made the fries soggy pretty quickly. Shrimp tacos 4.5 out of 10 Shrimp is deveined (thank goodness) and well seasoned! The tacos were loaded with huge portions of shrimp, which definitely made them worth it. The only downside was the sauce... it made the taco shell soggy really fast and completely overpowered the rest of the flavors in the taco. Overall it wasn't bad but I don't think I'd order this again. I came on a Friday night and it was pretty busy. Customer service was great. They were properly staffed, friendly and got our orders out relatively quick. Location was pretty clean. Salsa bar was well kept and not sus. Utensils were well stocked. Overall, I'd come back again and order the carne asada fries and make modifications.
