Mediocre portions, all fat no meat. Also terrible customer service, girl with the orange brown looking hair saw me walk in and wait in the counter for her for 5 min just for her to help someone else that walked in after me. Way to go read more

I haven't been to Waba Grill in a long time I guess I been meal prepping a lot lately had a seminar and wanted something healthly. First the place empty around 5:00pm. The Salmon looked good but ended up ordering the chicken/steak and vegetables skipped the rice was on the healthy tip just extra vegetables. I was going to get the chili spicy dumplings but didn't because I don't eat pork. They may want to consider getting vegi or chicken dumplings just a thought. Juan hooked me up I got some boom boom sause but mostly my go to is WaBa sause. read more

The food was absolutely disgusting!!! I've ordered from here twice. The first time was from a DoorDash delivery in August 2025 and our food seemed like it was scraped from the bottom of the Labrea Tar Pits. It was dry, burnt, old and nasty. The last time was December 2025. I walked in, ordered and gave clear instructions not to mess this one up, because my wife was just getting off the plane. But no!!!!! They never grilled nothing. The rice was dumped into hot water. The chicken was dumped into hot water. Then the veggies were dumped into hot water, then put into a bowl. I was standing there shocked, like these idiots can't see me watching them doing this shit!!! I called the manager, and told her about this. Her dumb ass tells me she has to watch the cameras and will call me back. It's been two weeks, and I've made 3 phone calls and this woman (Yesenia) refuse to be a respectable human, and a woman of her words to simply call me back and refund me. So, this is what happens when you act like an ass. I'll put you on blast. read more

It's always weird energy, been patronizing the establishment for damn near 15 years and it's always lackluster people who don't want to take your order! The food is decent, but the service sucks ..., constantly read more

I ordered a salad, and they messed it up completely. I ordered a house salad, and it was made like it was a Spicy Asian salad. I did NOT order that. Every time I have gone here they have made it correctly, but this time no. I have never seen the girl who was making it work there until today, but it was disappointing, I ended up giving my dogs the chicken. It had edamame in there and had Waba sauce on top of my meat and they did not even give me the correct dressing for it as well (I got the spicy dressing). This is not how my salads usually have been made. There is no Waba sauce or edamame and I never order the spicy Asian one. I didn't even get the wonton strips for this either. This frustrated me and I just ended up throwing out the rest. They were not even friendly as well either when you walked in. Very disappointing. Sounds like someone needs more training to make food correctly. read more

This is my first time coming to this Waba Grill on my way home after seeing a friend who lives in the area. I ordered a chicken bowl with avocado for $11.22, the serving size was a pretty good sized lunch for one person. I ordered the bowl without the sauce and the chicken was made and seasoned to order. I called ahead of time to place my order for pickup and it was available pretty quickly - within 10 minutes. The inside of the restaurant is clean and has a good amount of tables and chairs. I'm sure any date or family would be comfortable eating here. read more

The steak bowl was cold ( idk if that was the driver or the restaurant) second, it was 90% rice. Barely any meat I wouldn't order from here again. I had to take a picture it was so egregious. I'd take a bite before I took the pic but I assure you they really play in my face with the 3 table spoons of cold steak and all that rice. Whoever made my food should definitely be ashamed. read more

My family (of 5) wanted WaBa (Inglewood) is the closest location. Never ever will we return here! The cashier was very rude (1-18-25 @ 6:15pm). Our order was wrong, the food was cold, they didn't have carrots, peppers, onions. We ordered one bowl with 1 scoop of rice and the rude cashier says we only put 1 scoop but they proceed to put 2 1/2 scoops of rice. We ordered Teriyaki chicken & steak bowl. They gave us a Teriyaki Steak Veggie bowl! No customer service! A true waste of our hard earn money. Very disappointed and upsetting. Do better Inglewood WaBa! I definitely will be contacting corporate! read more

My kid wanted Dumplings, we were driving by WaBa Grill and decided to stop by to get the 20pc Dumplings for a quick takeout. As you walk inside, the floor feels sticky, dirt footprints, and dirty all around the tables. There was no acknowledgement from the person in charge. (No name tag). Dumplings were good, I do enjoy WaBa Grill's food. (VisitInfo: 6/9/22 Thurs/4:22pm) Food: 5 out of 5 Cleanliness: 2 out of 5 Customer Service: 2 out 5 Overall Experience: 3 out of 5 read more

Every time I come I receive great customer service from Jeilyn. The store is always clean and they get my order out to me fast!

Good service. Food freshly cooked. Got shrimp tacos and spicy chicken bowl. Place is clean but ordered to go

If I could give this place 0 stars I would, horrible management, and to be completely honest it didn't even feel like there was a manager there. They all had cups that weren't from WaBa grill drinking from them and making faces. I knew what they were up to but that isn't my place to tell them anything. This is not okay for anyone I think that place needs to be put under a lot of construction, new management and new workers for that matter as soon as possible I used to like going there however this location needing help is an understatement. I asked where my favorite worker was as he told me "ohh yeah she no longer works here" that upset me because she was the only person who ever had a real conversation with me all these other people are like intoxicated robots never coming here again!!!! I will be going to the Manchester location from now on!!!!! read more

Great for a quick and healthy meal! Order at the counter and grab your food about 5 minutes later. Located in a strip mall, parking can be difficult in the lot if you come during peak hours. The restaurant itself was clean and well maintained. It was relatively new. The menu contained a good selection of rice bowls, salads, wraps and plates with options of tofu, chicken, shrimp, salmon, and beef. The were several choices of sauce. I had the tofu veggie bowl which was lite and delicious. Service was great. Prices were reasonable. The gender specific restrooms were clean and functional. For a restaurant of this type, it rates a 5. read more

I went in Monday night around 8:20pm to pick up my mobile order and I just gotta say the young woman who was working that night was so attentive and she was very nice and helpful. I hope she gets recognition on her hard work. She gave great customer service. Thank you again for your awesome service. The food was fresh and so delicious. I ordered the Family Meal with chicken and the rib eye steak. Quality was great. read more

I had got a bowl from here, the food was really good. I especially liked the beef cook Israel had made in my bowl.

The food was under cocked. It had a little bit of chicken and rice. Their was a hair on my food and a little bug inside my bowl. The customer service was really bad. read more

It's always a 60/40 chance my order is missing something. I always order through Doordash due to the pandemic. I ordered 2 extra garlic sauces and they weren't completely filled. If I have to pay, the container should have more than a 'lick' in them. read more

Horrible food!! Chicken too dry. Couldn't eat it. This is the worst Waba Grill I've ever been to, please management pay attention to this place... and it's not the first time that I came to this place and the food is always very bad.. this is my second time but definitely my last.. read more

Stopped in to grab a quick lunch and the place was a complete mad house. Despite the large crowd, the staff managed to serve everyone in a timely manner. A plus for myself since I was on a short time limit. For the food it was decent. I've always thought Waba Grills chicken could use a bit more seasoning but nothing a few sprinkles of salt can't fix. Portion has never been an issue no matter the location and it is the one thing they nail in my opinion. Good job taking on the lunch hour rush at a fast pace. Lunch 1/5/2018 read more

This place is the worst!! That men's room smell, another Yelper mentioned, a YEAR ago...is still here!!! We got our food to go, as he suggested. Well, we could of left it there! I ordered a toastada shrimp salad, with pico de gallo. I'm used to having the toastada in a bowl, right? Well, they gave me a plastic bowl full of the shrimp/pico de gallo concoction and toastada "chips", on the side. Really? I thought a toastada bowl is a bowl?? It was tasty but, I needed the bowl. My son wasn't to thrilled with his selection either. He said the smell in the place, made him lose his appetite. I don't know what all the fuss is about? Chipotle is better to me. Yes, it is the right restaurant. The location in Inglewood. As I said, it was a shrimp concoction, with chips. If you're saying you don't have that on your menu, then someone there gave me that, NOT in a bowl. Perhaps, they misunderstood. Furthermore, I checked in while at the establishment. My son had the salmon, on top of the rice...which was dry. read more

I was on my way to LAX to pick up a relative and wanted to pick up a couple of meals so that we don't look for a place after. I was actually feeling some Mexican food but didn't find any around me so I stopped by Waba Grill. I always hear their commercials on the radio so I assumed they would be good. I walked through the entrance and was impressed by how big this place was. You can also see everything into their kitchen which gave it an even larger feel. I looked at their menu and went with the waba veggie bowls. Their cashier also recommended it. When I checked in to Yelp, I saw that they had a check-in offer and their manager was super nice. He refunded my transaction and rung me up again so that he can give me the 10% off. I waited around for a few minutes so I got to really see the restaurant. The kitchen had equipment that had a layer of grease on it and looked very dirty from my side. Their condiment stand had two dispensers for teriyaki sauce and Hot sauce and they were both very very dirty. I'm not sure what the inside looks like but I don't think I want to find out. I picked up my meals and proceeded to LAX for the pick up. When we got home we open the bowls and we couldn't even bite into them. The meat was so over cooked and over sauced that we couldn't even find pieces of meat in there. The vegetables were so mushy just like baby food. I wish I would have eaten there because I would have returned my meal and gotten a refund. It was so so bad. I'm usually not a very harsh reviewer but their food was terrible. One star for the friendly manager and one star for the check-in offer besides that, I would have given it no stars :( read more

Pretty sweet spot to swing by! Now WaBa will be one of my go-tos while rock climbing at the gym nearby. (Btw WaBa, a bunch of climbers asked us where we got our food upon bringing it back to the gym - hungry people will come your way ;) Enough parking in the plaza. If you're driving northbound or from 405 North, take a right on S Felton Ave then left into the plaza. WaBa will be on your right. Steak bowl with brown rice was $9; Chicken bowl with brown rice was $8. I had the Steak bowl, and it was delicious! The portions were HUGE! I ate half at the gym then enjoyed the other half for lunch the next day. Although we ordered food to-go, the restaurant looked very clean and well kept. Restrooms are down the hall. Staff was also very polite and kind! We came in at 8:55pm - 5 minutes before closing - yet they greeted us with smiles, and also offered jalapeño peppers/onions before throwing them out. Another pair came in after 9pm, but the staff was friendly towards them as well. Very nice, very chill folks. I'll be back for sure, and look forward to trying their other items! read more

Went to Waba Grill. Very 1st time. Very pleasant customer service, requested that the cook wear gloves and received no resistance, fully cooperative. Purchased the salmon plate and the chicken veggie bowl. The salmon and salad were good the only reason for the 4 rating was the white rice was in need of some type of seasoning, somewhat bland. Other than the adjustment to the flavor of their white rice an otherwise pleasant experience. read more

It's a very clean and tidy place to stay for a meal. Too bad couldn't try the spicy pork plate this time as the food was out of stock. Tried the chicken veggie rice bowl and is was exceptionally huge when served! And the chicken was so perfectly cooked, that I could tell it's almost the same as those served in Japan. I would definitely revisit again and try some other dishes later :p Parking is available here and not many people here all the time so finding a place is never a problem here. read more

Last night 2/27/2021 at around 7pm I visited the WabaGrill on century blvd and Felton Ave in Inglewood. I ordered a chicken bowl but soon noticed a new item on the menu so i asked the cashier what exactly was it, he (Raul G) told me it's the chicken bowl but with the sauce already on it. I assumed it was the Waba Sauce so I went with that. I ordered the sweet and spicy chicken bowl. When I got my order I open it and forked a piece of chicken out because I noticed it wasn't what I thought it was so I asked can I exchange it for a regular chicken bowl instead. Raul G then told me no because I had already ate it. I said ok and walked out. I quickly returned because I know that at restaurants, businesses, establishments etc if your unhappy with the product your provided a refund or exchange unless stated otherwise. Upon my return I hear Raul G and a older White gentleman saying " it's always the black ppl" I walked up to the two and asked "What did you say" the older gentleman then said " we said black people always causing a problem" I then gave him a small piece of my mind and he left very soon after. I then asked for a refund and at that point I was told by the MOD (didn't get his name) that I could then just exchange it. I was ok with that because that's all I wanted in the first place. I get my food and leave and not once did anyone apologize for that raciest conversation that I overheard. Also it was very hurtful to know that just because I don't like something that's me causing a problem. If I have to pay I should at least be happy about the service rendered. I work right across the street I visit waba grill 4/5 times a week so I'm very familiar with the food they serve. It's always chopped grilled chicken and steamed veggies, saying this to say when I got home to eat (I had not checked my food inside the restaurant because it's a regular chicken bowl what could be wrong?) I feel like that gave me slops/scraps. Instead of chopped chicken I had chunks, with skin or fat not sure. I didn't eat it and will return it as soon as they open , it's so disheartening to experience this 2021 as far as the racist conversation. read more

Food was okay, a little pricey for their portions, and staff was helpful & friendly. First time- didn't know what to get so one of the cooks recommended the WaBa plate. In that, I got the chicken, beef, salad, & veggies. The chicken was a bit dry, beef was a bit tough. If it wasn't for their sauces, I don't believe I would've finished my plate. read more

Not bad...not bad at all. WaBa Grill is what Flame Broiler used to be during its heyday. I love having a lunch option that's both fast and a bit healthy. My favorites are the Salmon veggie bowl and the Chicken Veggie bowl. The salmon is pretty tasty and cooked well. Of course with every bowl, you get the choice of brown or white rice and green onion or no green onion. Location could be deemed as a bit sketchy. But it's not that bad. Parking is ridiculous during lunch peak times so plan accordingly. Tip: call in your order before arriving to save time. read more

The food was great, very tasty, reasonably priced, and the service was quick and pleasant!

I ordered the salmon bowl with extra salmon, avocado & green onions. Salmon was moist & tasty. Rice was prepared well too. The restaurant is very close to my job & will be a frequent lunch spot. Around 12pm the parking gets tight. So you may want to get there early or come after the lunch rush. read more
