    I found a hair on my bowl, when I brought it up to the cashier's attention in a polite manner she made a face and walked to the cook's attention. The cashier was not wearing a head cap, and was bothered. I hear here making a comment about why i brought up the plate if I was almost done?. No apologies were ever made, she fixed a smaller plate and continued to clean. Terrible customer service as they continued to bad mouth us.

    casual weekday dinner search...looking for something quick and easy...finding waba grill across the street from the hyatt and marriott hotels...strip mall location and low-key...no line to the order counter...taking the waba plate (chicken & steak) $14.49 and a drink $2.99...choice of sauces and taking the waba sauce...similar to teriyaki sauce...about 10 minutes and called...small side salad was fresh and decent...potstickers were average and could have been cooked better...the chicken over rice was decent...the "steak" did not look appetizing...thin and dark strips of beef...looked almost like jerky and cooked to death...don't get the steak....other than the steak, the meal was average, but not really worth the price...

    I was really disappointed as this was my first time trying out Waba Grill and had high hopes! The customer service was great, and she was really friendly. We went out to lunch yesterday 7/17/2023 around 12:30pm ish, not sure but its timed on the receipt I added below.... I could not believe my eyes when I saw the $16.00 plate of just White Rice and Steak??? You can clearly see from the picture that it barely had any meat on there. I know I should of gotten veggies, but I decided to opt out and just try the meat and rice! I was super disappointed at the price and the quantity of the food! The quality of the food was okay, nothing out of this world.. The inside was nice and had a homeless guy sitting in there with all his stuff, so it was kinda weird eating and just him staring at us asking for cigarettes' Over all, I don't think we will be visiting again!

    This took 25min+ to heat up...

    Terrible service from Patty and Ricardo. Receipt says Jesus, which is incorrect. Ordered a (only ONE!!) mini bowl and waited over 25min. Ridiculous, didn't even offer an apology, they were to busy making a big order for a hand written receipt. (Read below) Patty was helping me, and when someone from a deliver service came, she ignored me and I stood there while she took their order on a post it sticky note, (seems like they are giving away free food) That doesn't even sound right, it's a delivery driver! Business owner should be cautious. I'll be taking my business elsewhere. I can't remember the last time I left a review, but I felt strongly about this terrible service 10/30/23 at 6:07pm.

    Not worth $10

    Service was okay just had to order my food. Pricey for a bowl of rice. Not enough chicken for $10.

    "digital service fee" how ridiculous, never coming back

    Its disgusting that they charge you to use the app. Congrats, now you lost my business. Read their response, they don't get it.

    The steak and chicken combo bowl. Pathetic. This is what I get upon opening the lid.

The vibe is very casual and chill, definitely try to avoid during peak hours (lunch time and dinner time) as it can get crowded quickly.

It was walkable, but a little bit of a trek. 100% worth it. Staff was super friendly and helped us figure out what to order (parents weren't sure whether they wanted Mexican or burgers). We ended up getting the Bulgogi burger, a bacon cheeseburger, some onion rings, and a carne asada fry. Ok. The food doesn't photograph well for your instagram, but it's delicious. Lemme tell ya - after an early morning of flying, we inhaled this food. Would absolutely come back. Was good enough that we're considering skipping dinner at the park The inside of the restaurant is clean and has a good mix of table sizes for everyone. Saw a table near us order the chicken teriyaki plate and it looked delicious as well. I don't think you can go wrong with anything on the menu.

It's not aggressively seasoned, but that…read morefeels intentional -- it's clearly designed to be paired with their Cane's Sauce, which is the real star here. Tangy, peppery, slightly creamy, a little addictive. You don't just dip the chicken... you dip everything. Fries, toast, possibly your dignity. The Texas toast deserves its own mention: buttery, crisp on the outside, soft inside, and wildly underrated. Fries are classic crinkle-cut -- not revolutionary, but they do the job, especially when dipped in sauce. Service is fast, efficient, and usually friendly, which matters because Cane's tends to be busy. The vibe is casual, slightly chaotic, but well-run -- especially late night!

Two items were missing from my order. I called the store to resolve this, but the staff told me to wait and she put me on hold for 20 minutes with no help. At the very least, I expect better customer service. Two missing chicken fingers shouldn't be a big deal, but the poor service and 20-minute hold completely ruined my late dinner after a long working day. Also, some of the chicken tenders were noticeably small, were barely half the size they should be. Customer service, if you're reading this, you have my order number and I paid by card, so you should be able to process a refund without asking me to call back.

Parking is shared with nearby businesses, but there were plenty of spots. The dining area has lots of tables, though it's a little tight on space. The staff were friendly, attentive, and helpful throughout. The food was delicious across the board. I ordered the Molcajete, which came loaded with refried beans, chorizo, avocado, potatoes, a sunny side up egg, carne asada, grilled slice of cheese, and pickled purple onions. The portions were huge -- I couldn't finish mine. The meat was tender, juicy, and perfectly seasoned. I added shrimp for a little extra and it was absolutely worth it. Others at the table ordered the chilaquiles, which come in red, green, or a combo, and can be customized with chorizo, short rib, or other proteins. The feedback was positive, though the portion size looked a bit small compared to other dishes. The very berry French toast was a hit with my daughter. She loved the sauce -- flavorful but not too sweet -- and the bread was perfectly toasted on the outside with a soft center. The burritos were generously sized. The surf and turf stood out, with perfectly cooked shrimp and meat. The sauce had a bit more kick than expected, but it was delicious overall. The carne asada fries were also a great size, with fresh, quality ingredients and great flavor. A few things to note: there are no fountain drinks, and the agua frescas don't come with refills. The menu has a great selection of Mexican-inspired café drinks -- café de olla, Mexican hot chocolate, lattes, and more.

Good-sized pizza and it's filled with lots of meat, actually pretty good.

Good Pizza, we never encountered any problem with our order here.

Not a lot of reviews, kind of in the middle of nowhere, and when I entered, the restaurant wasn't very full. But all of those were quickly put to rest when the food came out. I got a chance to try the pad thai lunch special (comes with steamed rice, fried wonton, and a salad for $12.99) and the panang beef curry. Hands down some of the best Thai food I've ever had. The pad thai was sweet, chewy, and perfectly complimented by the chicken. It was the exact taste I was looking for when ordering a pad thai. From the first bite to the last, it was great and enjoyable. The panang beef curry has to be some of the best curry... or even food that I've ever had. The perfect amount of spice (medium), with a bunch of meat and veggies. It went so well with rice, but shined bright on its own as well. The spice of the curry is a great additive to the tender, juicy beef. It is spot on when it comes to saltiness, and isn't overly thick or overly thin. It is exactly what is promised: a beautiful combination of flavors and textures that comes together in your mouth to produce a feeling that you will only get by trying it yourself. Overall, this place gets a 9.5/10. The service was friendly and quick, and the interior of the restaurant is clean and well-maintained. I don't know why it isn't always packed to the brim, but I'm definitely not complaining. Less wait time for me!!!
