Definitely stop by for lunch or dinner or just grab it to go.

Majority of the tables and booths were filled when we visited. Service: We placed our order with Lorena at the register. She was nice, quick, & efficient. She gave us our number, and we seated ourselves. Our food also came out quick after ordering. Food: I ordered the California Omelette, and my mom ordered the French Toast Platter. The omelette was cooked and seasoned well. The avocados were fresh. The hash browns were crispy, and the wheat breads tasted as expected. My mom enjoyed her French toast. Pricing: Great brunch deals during select hours! Will be visiting again!

Seriously too slow. No excuse for this other than management is NOT on top of their game. They need to step it up or they or they are going to lose business. You can't operate like this let alone in a downtown environment.

Obviously, nobody wants that to happen, but when you're serving hundreds of people and handling food all day, an occasional mistake like that can happen. One isolated incident doesn't necessarily reflect the overall quality of a restaurant. I also saw a reviewer accuse the staff of being racist because the restaurant was busy and the reviewer felt they had to wait too long. That's a pretty serious accusation to make against someone's character based solely on having to wait for service. Being frustrated with slow service is one thing; publicly accusing employees of racism without anything more to support it is another. It's disappointing to see a business and its employees hit with a one-star review over an accusation like that. Based on my own experiences here over multiple visits, the staff has always been great, and this location deserves far better than some of the reviews suggest.

Waba Grill is one of those spots you hit when you want something quick but still feel like you're eating somewhat clean. The chicken bowl is solid--tender, well-seasoned, and the portion size is decent for the price. The rice is usually fresh, and the veggies (when you get them) add a nice balance. read more

Let's be completely honest: it's not what it used to be…read more Unfortunately, not all Wienerschnitzels are what they once were, so that's something to keep in mind when visiting one today. As for this particular location, I have to give them credit. It's nice, clean, and well-kept. The people working there were extremely friendly and nice--just beautiful people, inside and out. They were welcoming and did their jobs with a smile. As for the food... well, it's pretty much the same as always, and sometimes that can be disappointing. I ordered a pastrami burger, and I expected what anyone would expect: a burger with a nice, generous helping of pastrami. Unfortunately, that's not what I got. What I received was a burger with just a couple of strips of pastrami. Needless to say, that was disappointing. When you order a pastrami burger, you expect to actually get a good amount of pastrami on it. And honestly, I don't blame the employees. They're most likely following whatever portions they've been instructed to use in an effort to save money. I understand that businesses are dealing with higher costs, but cutting back on the very thing people are coming to you for isn't the answer. So this next part goes out to every Wienerschnitzel that is still operating: You need to do better. Wienerschnitzel is an American classic. It's an icon. You've been around for more than half of my lifetime, and you've been loved by generations of people. I understand that times have changed. I understand that food costs, labor, and everything else have become more expensive. But please don't lose sight of what made people love Wienerschnitzel in the first place. When someone orders a pastrami burger, give them a pastrami burger--not a burger with a couple of strips of pastrami. People are willing to pay for good food. They just want to feel like they're getting what they paid for. Wienerschnitzel has been around long enough to know what an American classic is supposed to be. Please bring some of that old Wienerschnitzel back. We're still here, and we still love it.

First off, the rice...the BASE of this Asian dish, should never ever be long grain rice, but it was. The rice was flaky and did NOT pair well with the rest of the ingredients. In Asian dishes, rice needs to be medium (or even short) grain, so the rice sticks together, and you can pick up an entire "clump" of rice easily with chopsticks. Don't know if this was a permanent change, or if someone just got the wrong rice, but it really changed the dish, and not in a good way. Secondly, instead of a lightly fried egg that was still slightly runny, it was hard. Like, cooked all the way through hard. And I know it wasn't due to residual heat from the other ingredients, because it was very rubbery, the way overcooked eggs can get. I do hope this was just a one-time thing, and these are not permanent recipe updates, so I will give it another try and decide from there if I will continue to be a customer.

You can fill up on however much meat, veggies and noodles. There's also a sauce bar to sauce up your Mongolian bowl. The choice of meat they have is decent with beef, chicken, and pork. Veggies are cabbage, carrots, bean sprouts etc. Your sauce can be as savory or spicy as you want. There's basic diced garlic as well for no spice but with some flavoring. You can pack your bowl as much and as high as you want. It just takes longer to cook. You all line up with your bowl and the cook dumps it on this really hot large round grill. You can build and cook as many bowls as you want. Just be sure to be able to eat it to not let it all go to waste.
