Beautiful clean lobby

Great healthy choice in Santa Paula chicken steak, salmon, shrimp, tofu, plant-based steak salads everything is grilled nothing is fried

Steak tacos with WaBa sauce on the side!

Try the tacos!! Absolutely Amazing! Love the food here. Always feel healthy and full when I leave! Very kind staff and the place is always clean. Lots of parking in the back.

Again this place skimps on the meat.

Again this place goes cheap on the meat and literally gives half of the serving that other WaBa Grills give. I literally drive to Fillmore to eat at waba because the Santa Paula one does this to me every time. Unfortunately I didn't have time today, but yet again I'm reminded of why I don't come here.

This is a photo taken of me after tasting their tofu. Too perfect for my mortal tastebuds so I ended up passing out and needing a revive.

This WaBa location is still pretty new in the Santa Paula area. Very clean and fast service. It was a Sunday late afternoon and not very crowded. My order was perfect and my food was perfect. Chicken was juice and full of flavor veggies were steamed properly to perfection and get this, My avocado was perfectly ripe no black to be seen on it!! That alone is a hard one to come up on. The dining area is inviting with Lights and a modern decor. plenty of space to sit for a meeting/family or just a couple. There's also plenty of parking in the back so do not be discouraged when you first pass by. I love have how WaBa is really healthy and has options from chicken, steak, salmon and shrimp. Very healthy and not to mention a great post workout meal also. I will definitely be comming back for more-yumm!

Half way thru my meal....one half a waba plate

Came here right after this location opened, their food is definitely on par with their other locations. So if you liked their Waba you'll like this Waba. You can tell employees are new and a little slow going but the manager seems up to par and was helping the staff. Quick service. Fresh food. Only mild gripe was I ordered a side of shrimp and she said it was 2 pieces, I said ok. It was literally 2 pieces but at a different waba it was 2 skewers so I have no idea who was wrong on that but one of the two was! Still 5 stars tho! 10x better than SP Panda!

@best_bbq Santa Paula- Tritip & Chicken Bowl with Veggies &…read moreRice $14.99 Mild sauce with Hot on side (habanero spicy!) This place is famous in Ventura County... I've asked countless people/chefs where their fav place to eat is and EVERYONE said its worth the drive to Santa Paula to eat here. Our family had our fav tritip sandwich spot locally back 25 years ago but they closed... but the legendary sauce of my childhood tastes so damn familiar to these guys!!! Bowl was filling... but the staff and the guy at the register were very happy at 11am on a Wednesday! Seriously the Reg guy joked back with us and helped make the ordering smooth.

I recently tried the tri-tip sandwich and pork ribs at Best BBQ in Santa Paula and was…read moredisappointed. The biggest issue was the tri-tip. The meat was sliced very inconsistently, with some pieces cut thick and others cut extremely thin. This made the sandwich difficult to eat and took away from the overall experience. The pork ribs were okay, but nothing memorable. The side dishes were also underwhelming--very small portions and average in flavor. For the price, I expected larger sides and better attention to detail with the meat preparation. The restaurant has potential, but consistency is important when serving BBQ. Unfortunately, the uneven tri-tip cuts and small side portions left me feeling unsatisfied. This review refers to Best Bar-BQ in Santa Paula, which is known for its tri-tip sandwiches and ribs. Good luck with parking. The most memorable part was the spicy bbq sauce.

THIS PLACE IS AMAZING. I've been working down the street and decided to give this place a try…read moreafter my wife showed me their yelp and I was mad at myself for not coming sooner due to the amazing corn taquitos/burritos I had today. THEY WERE SO GOOD. If you haven't been here yet, do your like a favor and come eat here, you will not regret it. Called in my order of 5 corn taquitos/burritos around noon and the the lovely gentlemen let me know my order would be ready in 5 to 10 minutes. As I walked in he was backing up my order, talk about fast and friendly service here. Got a side order of guacamole for my order and it was a very inexpensive lunch. The corn burritos/taquitos were popping hot and came topppd with a ton of cheese. I poured the red salsa it came with over the cheese and I got the final product of salsa and cheese covered burritos/taquitos. 10/10, highly reccomend. These things were amazing. Overall come support this local buisness. Great food, great service, what is not to like here. Thank you El Preferido for the great lunch, I will be back very soon.

So happy I finally got to try this place omg these taquitos were fantastic!!!! Such a cute spot and…read morefamily owned, everyone is polite and welcoming The horchata is yummy and overall a great experience
