Was probably the best waba grill store I've ever been to. With many in the area I come here for the quality and consistency. The owner is super friendly and staff is nice and friendly. Store and bathrooms are super clean. Location has definitely been awesome under this new ownership. Will be back! read more

the food was great and tasted fresh and the workers were kind, respectful, and caring.

Very, very stingy place. The only waba grill i know that doesn't fill the bowl , even halfway. Maybe it's because the employees always have attitude when it gets busy. Don't come around the lunch rush, or they will stare at you weird. dinner, who knows, maybe better service but still probably skimp on the bowls. not returning read more

The new owner, Nav has definitely changed the dynamic of the Waba. I would recommend everyone to go in now that it's under new ownership. He and his employees are very friendly. The chicken and steak tasted amazing, i've been to multiple and none have been this great! Now that Nav is the owner, he has made it a point to keep the place clean and presentable. I definitely will be returning and will be recommending all my friends and family to go to this Waba Grill. read more

Went today and was a disappointed! The people working were so disorganized and young! They got the order wrong! Gave my son thigh meat instead for white he paid for ! Bowls didn't have even half rice! Very skimpy. We have eaten there many times and it was very good! Don't think I'll be back! They need some one over 21 who can actually manage these people!! read more

Just got the salmon bowl along with some other bowls. The so called salmon was absolutely vile. I have never had a piece of fish so bad. It was hard and not flaky. Very fishy and didn't even taste like salmon. Will NEVER go back. Wish I could give 0 stars. read more

Worst take out meal I've ever had! Vegetables were raw and my salmon was burned and beyond dry. I've had a headache ever since I ate it probably from all the carcinogens. We get take out from this Waba 2-3x per month. Never again!! read more

WaBa Grill - My burned dry salmon. Carcinogens anyone?! - Fast Food Near Me - La Verne, California

As the food is great I can't justify putting 1 star for poor customer service. All delivery orders: 1. App/web app doesn't allow for extra notes 2. I paid for extra sauce and it did not arrive and the one that did was half full. 3. Requested extra sauce on top and order came with zero sauce on top 4. A couple of Waba packets is not standard with every to go order 5. Ordered dumplings and no dumpling sauce arrived with my order. The food is great but this place will be losing my business if another order comes to me wrong. read more

WaBa Grill - Charged for extra sauce, two of which I did not get and this one is half full! - Fast Food Near Me - La Verne, California

Very poor food safety practices here. Witnessed the cashier handle money, not wash his hands, and proceeded to stick his gloveless hands in the rice cooker to scoop rice. Also witnessed this same employee grab vegetables to steam barehanded (still has yet to wash his hands). He also licked his thumb to separate the to go bags...and still never washed his hands! Consumers beware.... read more

The manager here is wonderful. I went into the store because I received a discount coupon. My sister and I tried to place the order at the counter, but the coupon had to be used online. I proceeded to place the order online (it took me a while, I'm getting older and not as tech saavy) and forgot to use the coupon. The cashier called the manager in, and he was more than happy to cancel the order and allow me to place the order with the code. He was very kind. He was actually gentle. He may have realized I was in a fragile state at the moment. I tried to hide it, but I'm not sure if I was successful. What he didn't know was that my father died a few days ago, and it was my first day back in the outside world trying to deal with my grief. Not being able to use the buy 1 get on free coupon shouldn't have been a big deal, but at the moment, feeling like my world was upside down, it was just one more thing that threw my emotions. I want him to know that I appreciate his gentleness. I read on a previous review here that this is a new manager. I want him to know that he's doing a fantastic job. It reminds me of the saying, "You never know what someone's going through." Thank you for your kindness yesterday. read more

ZERO stars. You do not get what you pay for. Bowls are half full. They have no waba sauce no hot sauce. read more

WaBa Grill - Ordered a Waba bowl. This is their full version of a bowl. A $10 meal and look at how sad this looks. We will never be going back. - Fast Food Near Me - La Verne, California

Ordered food online. I was waiting in line behind a group of 3 who the worker Rudy knew personally. After he took their order he walked away from me and let me stand at the register for 10 minutes. The other 2 workers just looked at me multiple times while also ignoring me and it wasn't until I asked if I should just go back there and get my own food did I get some service. Not sure why they deserved the tip I left but I hope Rudy enjoys the extra money in his pockets before the holidays read more

WaBa Grill - Where's my avocado - Fast Food Near Me - La Verne, California

Ordered bowls a few times now and each time the bowl is maybe half full. Very disappointed and frustrating to get home and see there is hardly any food in my order that I paid full price!! This location seems to be very cheap in the serving size. read more

Just made a purchase 10 mins ago and I asked for extra teriyaki on the bowl and the bowls hardly had any on top. The cashier threw in some small teriyaki containers that had maybe a 1/3 of a teaspoon.the cashier seemed bothered that I asked for the vegetables on the side rather then on top of the bowl. This place is never friendly which is why qe always go.to the Glendora location. As a buisiness director I dont tolerate service this bad and would not have the cashier or the cook representating my brand. Sorry we bothered your establishment, will never return and hoping you select employees who love what they do. read more

Been to this location several times. It's the only waba grill close to my home. Every time I've gone the food has not been good. I love waba. And I want this location to be good so bad. Today was the last straw. The chicken in my chicken bowl is clearly old meat and is hard, very dry and is hard to eat. I will not be going back to this location. You'd think out of over 5 visits, one of these experiences would be good. But every time the food is not up to par. read more

I come to this location weekly for lunch and it is amazing! The supervisor or shift Desirie B. is very professional and she always provides excellent customer service. The staff are always professional and friendly also every time I come in. The food is always 10/10, which is why I continue to come back to this location daily. If you are in the area I highly recommend this location. read more

The food was good today, there was a small piece of plastic mixed in with my chicken though. I have been getting curbside pick up at this location for years. I had to call three times before anyone answered the gentleman that answered told me I needed to come in to get my food, when I went in, I asked are you no longer doing curbside he said he was new and had only been working a month and no one has told him about curbside. The woman that was behind the counter chimed in rudely and said I've been working here a year and we have never done curbside. Well curbside is still available service option labeled on Google, so if there is new management, they need to change that or train their employees. Not only that while I was questioning them about curbside the new worker was asking me what my name was just to get me out of there. This is not the customer service that I'm used to at this location. Hopefully this issue will be fixed. Part of the reason why I like going to this location is because of curbside option. read more

Hello I am a community activist for the surrounding Cities. I had the worst experience from this grill today I ordered bowls they came incorrect and with not enough rice and they cut the portions. They also undercook the steak and messed up on my whole order . The staff was very rude the general manager of this location is one of the most rude individual that I would ever talked to in my life. He did not offer me any solutions all he told me was the cooks put the right portion and he didn't want to believe a customer. A customer is always right and I feel like Waba Grill let me down because they did not give me what I paid for this is just outrageous thing to happen during a pandemic. The customer service in this location is pure garbage I wouldn't recommend anybody going to this location I do not understand how the general manager is a general manager because he doesn't even treat his customers right and doesn't have a good service.Customer service is pure garbage they need to hire staff that actually cares for the customer read more

I ordered chicken veggie bowls and they came with what seemed like a half head of cabbage. Could barely find the chicken and other veggies. You can't contact them because they don't answer the phone, and the last time we tried giving them a chance to redeem themselves they were out of chicken! Manager there is not pleasant at all. Not good for customer service. read more

Ordered online said my order was ready for pick up. Arrived at the location and food wasn't ready and took another 15 mins to complete. When we went to eat all of our bowls were cold... disappointing read more

Great place always friendly & fast with services. Highly recommend to all technicians in the area

I loved how the little details and decorations of this place really made me feel welcomed. This is a great a friendly place to get a delicious meal! I'll definitely be back! Oh and Desiree is awesome and super kind! :) read more

I honestly love coming to this Waba Grill. Always so fresh! Great customer service & always hooks it up FAT! I leave so FULL. Such happy staff! Always give you enough sauces, forks, etc ! Thank you so much !:) read more

We ordered twice from them and both times food tasted old/ reheated. Ordered the family meal so we figured it would be made fresh. Last time we order from here. read more

So clean and the service was great! Aaron P was so helpful! We waited outside because it was a little cool inside but he packaged our bowls up and added sauce, forks and napkins and brought it outside to us! Parking was easy, which I thought would be a problem because it's connected to a condo complex. read more

We called in our order, they forgot the avocados and our dumplings so we went back and they gave us what was missing from our order. I watched the person helping us, Aiden, pull out the avocado and pack them. He SAW one of the avocados was bad and still proceeded to serve it to me. I noticed it once I was back home now writing this review. Bad service, sad to know he saw food that shouldn't be served, but continued to serve it anyways. read more

WaBa Grill - Avocado with mold and all squished - Fast Food Near Me - La Verne, California

I love waba grill but not this location. For the past year or 2 they have been so bad and I stopped coming for months. Today I went back in and the employees just stand around and talk instead of make the orders. The tall white guy was wearing Sandals and basketball shorts. Their service always sucks and is definitely the worst I've ever gotten from any of their locations read more

After reading the reviews I came in cautiously. To start with, there was a line of 3 or 4, and no cashier. I was impatiently thinking, bad reviews, now this, I'm gone. Then one of the two cooks? Stepped in and handled things. The food was prepared fast, and I was on my way. I felt the staff was fairly friendly, and made the food really fast. Two thumbs up. read more

All I can say is wow this place has changed! New owner new Waba Grill! I used to come here a lot but it started going down hill a couple years ago and I stopped coming. I was in the area today and decided to give it another shot and boy am I glad I did! Desiree the manager was kind, prompt and attentive to her customer's needs. I can really tell that she has turned around this location and it shows in the quality of the food, the cleanliness of the store, and the atmosphere when you walk in. If you have the luck of having your food prepared by Aaron, you are in for a treat. Best Waba grill experience I've ever had. Thank you Desiree for giving me a reason to come back! read more

WaBa Grill - Chicken veggie bowl, no rice, no carrots, brushed on sauce only. - Fast Food Near Me - La Verne, California

Definitely one of the better WaBa locations in this neck of the woods!

Love waba grill food is great and all but it's just the terrible service. Atleast have someone who can fake decent customer service. Idk if the person working there today had a bad day but there's no reason for them to sideeye you with attitude when you're just trying to get some food lmao. It's like y'all hired someone who didn't even want to work there to begin with. I'm not one to get rude to someone who works in the service industry cause I've been on the other end of that but atleast hire someone who can fake decent customer service. read more

Staffs are not too friendly doesn't smile at all!! They seems like, they don't like their job at all.

Very good Waba Grill location. Tasty food and friendly employees. The store is clean, parking can be difficult because it's shared with the apartment complex - if you can't find space in the lot you can park on the street. Overall my go to location for a good chicken or salmon bowl. read more

I just got home with our hot and fresh bowls! This WABA does a lot right in my opinion! Masks on the staff cooking/serving and changing gloves as they should. The really nice woman at the register is super patient since I never frequent Waba.. she made suggestions and had a great attitude! She was 100% right about the miso soup!! Oh... And the place is CLEAN! The guy cooking and assembling bowls gave us really good quality chicken too! Not skimpy like some places . Thanks for a great Friday night dinner La Verne Waba read more

They either need to low the price or fill the bowls up properly. They really short change you with how low they fill up the bowls. I've been to other waba grills and this is clearly far below standard. read more

Love this location they are fast staff is really nice and food is awesome. Thanks waba La Verne staff

Food is great, but seriously no open bathroom for customers? Covid isn't an excuse for all things... I won't be back until this is fixed.

Brand new, friendly service. I will definitely be coming here again! There are no other place in the La Verne area to get a bowl of chicken and rice so this is awesome. Much needed! read more
