    Salmon veggie bowl.
    Yesi C.

    Service was fast and friendly but my bowl was lacking Salmon/rice/veggies. The cost of going out to eat is getting higher-I get it. Inflation. I was contemplating grabbing food and decided to grab a Salmon veggie bowl. My mistake. It had two measly strips of salmon smh.

    BURNT EW

    If you want burnt food and rude costumer service i recommend coming when it's 11 am. Try i don't know not burning everything :/

    i say star 0! I visited this location this evening on my way to work and ordered food and a small Thai Tea without ICE. My food arrived very quickly, however there seem to be an issue with the drink, after what seemed to be close to 10 minutes later they brought me my drink half filled with a note ( see picture) I did try to clarify why and since I have been to this location previously and often to other locations without a problem I was quite frustrated. I am also Deaf and they did not seem to try to resolve my issue, Then she said Hello this is a message for Deaf. This is regarding an incident report you have submitted. The incident was reported because of a drink you ordered. I do apologize for the inconvenience of the order. I have an understanding that the note was written out for a better communication with the worker & yourself. I apologize they didn't have a better way of explaining , with the Thai tea there is a specific way we are required to do with exact measurements. Unfortunately the measurements are required for an accurate taste. With or without ice all drinks should have the exact same amount of liquid added to them. We apologize for the inconvenience. Please contact us back if there's anything else we can do for you. NEVER AGAIN on WaBa Grill!

    Mini bowl
    Gabe G.

    I've been coming here for years and never really had issues until today. The quality of the food was good but it's ridiculous to charge $8.89 for a chicken bowl and only get 3.5 ounces of chicken. The mini bowl had 2.3 ounces. I understand the cost of labor, food and overhead have gone up but to charge almost $9 for a bowl of rice is absurd. When i asked the staff member about the amount of chicken her response was " we cut down on portions, but you could order a side of chicken".

    Chicken and NO steak.

    It's not the first time that I have left without getting what I paid for! The place is NEVER busty, which is why I like the restaurant. So you'd think because it is slow, that my meal would be prepared as I ordered, but wrong. Today I ordered a waba bowl with chicken and steak. I get home, ready to eat, and no steak! Can't these people read the order??

    Doesn't look like Steak and Veggies, but no veggies

    Rudy very professional and polite, took care of our lunch needs. Mistakes happen, we understand it.

    The meat NOT crossing the top line...
    Wayne B.

    I've been eating Waba Grill for well over 12yrs now and this is the FIRST TIME EVER the meat did NOT cross the line at the top of the bowl. It's not like these bowls consist of anything other than rice and meat, you'd think they determine a proper ratio so that you're eating a beef bowl and not a rice bowl w/beef ‍‍. Not to mention the fact that woman took meat OFF the top before they sealed my bowl, I thought they put too much meat and then I get home and open the bowl and it was hardly any. AND they didn't give me any Waba Sauce. I'd recommend that you eat at any other Waba Grill if you really want your money's worth. I do food reviews on YouTube...check out my most recent Hidden Gem??

The burger made me feel nauseous, and the patty was extremely thin and lacked flavor. The fries were just basic, store-bought shoestring fries--nothing special at all. Service was also lacking. There was no one available to greet us or answer questions, which made the whole experience feel unorganized. They didn't have ice, and the drink options were limited to canned beverages or what seemed like store-bought water bottles - Walmart brand. On top of that, they didn't even have all the drinks they advertised. To make matters worse, when we were leaving, they didn't have proper takeout containers. Instead, we were given a small bag (meant for a cookie) to hold a chicken sandwich - size of a breast - which was pretty inconvenient. I also asked for grilled onions, but they were barely cooked and didn't add much to the meal. Overall, I would not recommend this place. There are definitely better options out there for the price and experience.

I hope they grow and open more locations. My husband and I just drove an hour to get to the Riverside location. We're only able to come once a month because it's so far away. We would hit it once a month if it were closer, maybe more than once a month. Service is always great at this location. They have stickers and buttons available.

You're not just eating something delicious, you're eating something you can feel genuinely good about. And the flavor? Every single item on the menu is addictive. I have yet to find a miss.

The restaurant has a casual, trendy brunch vibe and the menu is full of creative options that sounded really good. We tried the Brisket S'Mac Wrap, the Eggcelent Morning, and the truffle fries.

The truffle fries were crispy, well-seasoned, and a great shareable side. Service was the one downside. It was not very attentive, and we waited longer than expected for check-ins and refills. It was not terrible, but noticeable enough to impact the experience. Not to mention, it was not very busy at all around the time weren't, which was on a Wednesday around noon. Overall, the food was good and I would come back, especially when in the mood for brunch. With a little improvement in service, this could easily be a great go-to spot

(Oh, and a slice of onion, but I can't eat raw onions.) Needless to say, I left hungry. And the atmosphere? Yuck! Both McDonald's and Burger King outshine this place for atmosphere. It's a Sterile, white, blindingly bright kind of place. I don't know how this place stays open. Never again. No carrots.

The line did move slower than usually so I'm not sure what the delay is/was. There are a lot of food options and not only burgers. They have a variety of salads, serve breakfast all day, and have dinners you can order. I love that they give you the choice of fries, onion rings, fried zucchini, or a salad without charging you extra. Most places do. The service was great and please don't take offense if they read your order back quickly. This place can get really busy. The cashier read our order back perfect. Tonight we ordered 3 meals. A Pastrami Burger Combo w/ Sprite, Chicken Tender dinner w/ Pink Lemonade, and the Mechanic (Pastrami Steak Sandwich) combo w/ salad and Unsweetened Tea. The total was $58. We always order our fries extra crispy. It's the way to go for us. The Mechanic was really good. I would definitely get it again. It was seasoned to the max, actually a little too seasoned for my liking but I assure you, that's just my preference because I'm not big on salt. This was my first time having their pastrami in a sandwich and that's what was heavily salty to me. The bread and the fresh veggies on the sandwich helped cut through it a little. My side salad was delicious. I love that they use English cucumbers and put shredded cheese on it. My significant other tore his pastrami burger up and said they have the best one locally. My teenager loves the bread from the chicken tender dinner. Sadly they forget her Ranch for the tenders. Overall, it was yummy!
