    Chicken Bowl with avocado
    Amalex B.

    Not bad good rice chicken was ok the service was great good late night try for something better than fast food avocado tasted like it might have sat out too long or something reason for the three star

    I have been going to WaBa Grill for many many years and honestly did not realize until today that it is a franchise. I only realized it because this location was that bad. Starting with the food, the steak was the biggest issue. Either the quality is lower here or it is cut completely differently, but it was very thin, dry, and absolutely drenched in marinade. The teriyaki flavor was overpowering in a bad way. The rice was fine, veggies were fine, but the meat was terrible, which is kind of the whole point of coming to WaBa Grill in the first place. What really pushed the experience downhill was the lack of the usual side bar. Every WaBa Grill I have ever been to has the lemons, jalapeños, and extras available. They said they do not have a side bar here and instead give items over the counter. Except they were out of everything. No lemons, no jalapeños, nothing. The employee at the front, Sylvia, was just okay. Not rude, not particularly friendly either, but that is not really the point of the review. Bottom line, this location does not represent what WaBa Grill normally is. I will definitely be avoiding this spot and wanted to leave this review to help others do the same.

    asked for a chicken bowl W no sauce

    asked for no sauce the cook had 1 job instead of looking at customers come in he should focus on his orders coming in i have to go to work so i called and got met w stupidity from whatever female was working there today i get it accidents happend but that's genuinely what we pay you guys for to take orders get them right and get them out simple it's not like u guys r doing back breaking work it's ridiculous how do u get it wrong when everyone has their own task it's ridiculous especially when fast food workers want a livable wage yet can't handle the easiest job in the world

    Rude customer service by this girl Laura . Irritated from the moment we walked in. Just say you hate your job. Mind you it isn't rush hour. No one was there. 2 people working in the back making the food were nice , but this girl should fired. Forgot utensils , napkins, sauces, in my bag. She was Incredibly rude. Girl step it up. Take your money somewhere else. Don't come here.

    Chicken Veggie Bowl , brown rice

    Came in for lunch , friendly fast service , reason for the 3 starts was the tea containers were really odd, the regular black tea had only water in it and the citrus tea had some type of pink look aid in it !!?? Wth !? Other than that a good spot

    This Waba locations meets my expectations. Fast service and descent staff. Im in and out of this place w/in 5 minutes. Ive been going here pretty regularly, so i can tell you how consistent they are. The location is small but its well kept. So no complaints there. Food is on par with other waba grills. My go-to for healthy(-ish) fast food. Lol

    We are driving from Palm Springs to Las Vegas and decided to make a quick stop to get sandwiches,…read morewe didn't want anything heavy and sandwiches are usually easy on our bellies So quick wasn't an adjective I'd use, but they are fully aware and seem to knowledge it does take a long time-because they cleverly don't rush their product. They make it with love 100%. You could see and taste the care they put into the food-so if you're trying to go in then out, it's not gonna happen, but if you can order ahead-I'd totally recommend that as well. The owner recommended next time to order ahead of time if we are on a time crunch (we wouldn't really be but we had a late start and were going to end up in Vegas about midnight...so i def don't regret going-but like the owner said-ordering ahead of time would had been the move!! . But honestly, when we are back in the area I'll ABSOLUTELY come back-and on our way home-i might just have the hub bring us back through! He had a pastrami and i had a roast beef. Went with sourdough due to yelp reviews- i chose toasted sourdough only, but they will do cold/toasted bread/toasted bread and cheese and fully toasted. It's like how that one sandwich place was-but actually good!! (I can't remember what they were called lol) Anyway, 100% recommend. The 6 inch was a good size for each of us, I'm always down for leftover sandwiches tho. So I'd get the bigger one if i had a fridge to put it in for later!! Looking forward to going again, only thing I'd LOVE is sprouts added. But I'm probably in the minority for that lol

    If you're craving a true SoCal sandwich, this place is it. Every bite takes me straight to flavor…read moretown, packed with fresh veggies, loaded with hearty meats, and built like they actually care about your hunger!! I stumbled on this spot about two weeks ago, and honestly, I'm already planning to make it a regular stop because a good sandwich is my love language. The service is on point. The staff is friendly, upbeat, and always ready to help you figure out exactly what you want. Ordering inside is super easy too thanks to their tablet setup. It makes customizing your sandwich a breeze. 10/10!!

    It had been quite awhile since we had dined here, but again Diane and I were afforded a 4-1/2 star…read moreoverall experience. My ordered double dipped Big Beef Sandwich with Sweet Bell Peppers, melted Mozzarella Cheese, and Giardiniera was enormous, and after initially having my breath knocked away by the Giardiniera's overwhelming spiciness, my intestines soon settled down and I greatly enjoyed the melting concoction. The hoagie roll supporting this mammoth edifice of tender roast beef and embellishments nicely sopped up the au jus, and sank under the heat. The Chicago Dog that accompanied the Big Beef was a classic all-beef Hot Dog with a snap, rounded out with Emerald Green Relish, White Onions, Sport Peppers, and Yellow Mustard. For purists no ketchup is allowed on Chicago Dogs! Crinkle-cut French Fries added to my enjoyment of the meal. Diane liked her Fish Sandwich with a slice of American Cheese, and was especially fond of the Cheese Sauce into which she dipped her Fries.

    I tried this place for the first time and was impressed by the decor. The Midwestern theme is well…read moredone and felt authentic based on my visits to the Midwest. Unfortunately, the food didn't live up to the atmosphere. I ordered the chili dog and fries, and for the price, I expected much better. The chili was thin and watery, lacking the hearty, meaty flavor you'd expect. It tasted more like a budget canned chili than something made fresh in-house. The hot dog itself was just okay--nothing memorable and certainly not something I would return for. Given my experience, I'm surprised by the current four-star rating. The restaurant looks great, but the food didn't match the presentation or the hype. I would recommend managing expectations before visiting. In my opinion, it's simply not as good as it looks.
