    Chicken salad / dumplings.
    Lianne K.

    Ambiance at this location is literally nothing to write home about. Bland, boring, uninteresting. It looks less like a corporate-owned, or even a franchise of a known entity, and more like a mom & pop that was put together on the cheap. I just looked it up - there are about 200 locations of WaBa Grill in California & Arizona. I'd expect more of an aesthetic, frankly. We had been to one in the Palm Springs area some years ago and recall it as being bright and cheerful. The menu leans toward healthy choices, which is great. We should all try to eat healthier, right? I went for a house chicken salad. Dear Hubby went for a plate with beef and chicken teriyaki over rice. My salad had a LOT of chicken! A very generous amount, actually. I shared some of my greens with DH, and sampled some of the beef and rice from his plate. We also ordered a side of dumplings, and those were flavorful and prepared just right. I even give them a thumbs up for having zero calorie vitamin water as an option at the drink dispenser. The cashier was friendly and helped us with the menu options, since we had a few questions. The orders came out pretty rapidly, which suggests that some of the basics are prepped already, and then the heated meats are added as needed. I'd give the place one more star except for the very basic, almost depressing interior. It was clean, and that's a definite plus! It just felt dark to me.

    This is the second time they get my order wrong! I love WaBa grill but I don't understand how they receive online orders and make them wrong. I got a chicken and steak plate and got no chicken or the sauce for the dumplings

    Great location during the day for lunch. Alex and Jose the staff there were super nice and welcoming and helpful with our order to get the best waba experience possible. The place was very clean and neat.

    Waba has always been a safe choice for me. I don't come here too often, but when I do they never disappoint. If you need a well balanced meal, this is definitely the place to go. They prices are bad, and the food is delicious! The staff is always very nice as well.

    We were passing through Simi, had heard of The Hat and saw the location. Pulled into the lot, it…read morewas jammed but found a space down the back. I figured the odds are the food is good. Just inside the door it was obvious to get a place to sit you better be seated "now!" Everyone was eating, tables were covered with food, it looked great. Our order was taken, the person taking the order was quick, to the point and was not asking how my mother was doing. We were there to eat-not socialize. The receipt was ripped off and passed over with a flick. No instruction given like 'they'll call your number' or 'you pick up over there.' In the next 5 minutes if you paid attention for about 20 seconds you learned how things worked. It was busy, plates looked great and the aroma inside the place was something else. Our food came quick, we sat and began to peel open our pastrami dip sandwiches. Oh, they smelled great. They looked great. The meat was delicious, melt-in-your mouth tender. They did notice us! They like us! I could not imagine how much better a pastrami sandwich could have been. The bread was very good too-you know the Earl of Sandwich was onto to something way back when....the combination of meat and bread was great. The Hat has numerous other locations in the LA area...if you want a beyond generous sandwich you must stop and order the pastrami.

    Stopped by here for lunch right after landing in LA and it was packed with a lunch rush. We ordered…read morethe pastrami dip, pastrami burger, small fries, and onion rings. The pastrami burger and onion rings were the highlights for me. The onion rings were super crispy with a nice, light batter. The burger hit the spot too. The fries were a bit underwhelming though, kind of bland and definitely needed more seasoning. Overall, a solid stop if you're craving pastrami, but I'd skip the fries next time.

    Whoa! The Skywalker Sandwich is phenomenal,I don't think I have ever had such a flavorful sandwich…read morebefore. The Dutch crunch bread type was very interesting and a must try,if you have never had it. I had everything on it. Mustard, mayo lettuce, tomato, pickles. Not sure what else was in it other than avocado but it was amazing. Customer service was much to be desired and the dude with the long dirty blonde hair definitely needs some lessons with explaining kindly rather than just pointing at a sign. This dude shouldn't be at the front line taking orders,who knows how much business he's losing as a result of his public social skills. Placing an order. Speaking with this guy was a very unpleasant experience. The owner needs to record the interaction and reactions of the employees and customers to see what's going in. The food? Fantastic! Couldn't recommend a better place to order a sandwich from. Service not so much. Would have given at least a 4 ,but again customer service skills is lacking here. The sandwich maker with the brown short hair is really nice and pleasant to interact with. Maybe ted Nugent should watch how he interacts with the public. Update: Mgmnt got back really quick and remediated the issue with the employee and hopefully improves over time. Sometimes,that's all it takes to get the full 5* stars, thanks Steve!

After talking with the owner and staff I was pleased to learn they made their menu more traditional and much more to my tastes. I went with the Beef Lule Kebab, and added a small Tabbouleh Salad, and a large order of pickled Veggies. The staff were friendly and happy to help. Prices were more than fair considering the quality and portions. The restaurant was clean, welcoming and the open kitchen is always a good thing in my book. It's good seeing the team putting your meal together! Getting home and opening my meal I was pleased to see two juicy Kebabs atop basmati rice, as well as hummus and a grilled pepper and tomato. Upon digging in I got a high quality tasting meal. I do wish I had gotten the garlic sauces I ordered, because it would have been a great addition to the meal. Overall I would recommend trying them out, and if you're like me and haven't tried recently, they are definitely worthy of a second chance! Thanks for the great meal! You'll be seeing me more!

My family and I will definitely keep coming here for food.

The lady heard me clear however when I got home my order was filled with tomatoes. In addition I asked for jalapeños and they charged me but they were not added. I called and the lady was polite and apologized however when I asked what could have went wrong since I specifically called she said "the chef was really busy with orders" which is absolutely not an excuse to make sure a customers order is correct. Things happen but this is the 3rd time this has happened to me. Shout out to the manager for refunding my order and making it right. Just want to make sure they learn from this experience and do better. 1. If you don't have a topping someone should have let me known soon as I picked up my order and refunded the topping I asked for. ( the manger told me they never had any jalapeños after I found out they were never added) 2. If I called specifically to remove a topping you should double check the order to ensure it was done. 3. Don't have an excuse saying the chef was really busy and just making sure you correct it and ensure it does not happen again. The manager was genuinely sorry and made sure he made up for it and I do appreciate that so I will be back but I will call in my order next time and double check myself before I leave to ensure this does not happen again. Driving back home and being charged for something they don't have in addition to getting something you called to make sure you don't get is extremely frustrating. That's wasted time and energy. They need to do better because their food is good! Service is important!! Hope they improve.
