    Waba chicken shortage I guess
    Jose M.

    Never coming back to this waba. Ever again only waba I been to where they weight out the chicken it's. Like 80 % rice 20% protein what a joke

    Half-and-half plate
    Jonathan W.

    I got the half beef, half chicken plate with dumplings, half rice, and half vegetables. The beef was cooked to perfection so tender and mouthwatering. The cashier was incredibly nice and helpful in guiding me to choose the right options. Parking was a breeze. I will definitely be returning to this location Forgot to mention, I got double protein and Man they packed it

    To make them more beautiful. I just got 4x6 transparent self-sealing cookie bags  And I made stickers

    5 Stars - Outstanding Service and Delicious Treats! I can't say enough good things about the staff at the Waba Grill in Stanton (on Katella and Knott). They always go above and beyond, and the food is consistently fresh, delicious, and exactly what I expect every time I visit -- which is why I only come to this location. Recently, I asked if they could place a special order of their Rice Krispies treats for my daughter's first birthday party. Not only did they make it happen, but they helped me plan and coordinate the whole order with ease. I received 50 Rice Krispies, and they were a huge hit at the party! Everyone was raving about how tasty they were. Thank you to the amazing team for your kindness, professionalism, and for helping make my daughter's celebration extra sweet. I truly appreciate everything you did!

    Location: small but clean, nothing alarming. Self serve veggies, sauces and drinks all well maintained. Now for the good part; Food: I ordered these new Boom Boom Tacos, I went for it with the Trio. Don't know if I took too long to pick them up but the temp was a bit cold. The tortilla, pretty legit. Had the feel of handmade, thick but not crumbly. There was just the perfect amount of everything, meat to taco ratio where I got a good bite throughout. Sauce not overpowering the protein option. And the cabbage mix was crispy and also did not fall out of the tacos. The chicken was good, nothing extraordinary. I added a little more WaBa sauce and their Serrano sauce and yum! The shrimp taco was pretty good too. Also added Serrano sauce, but should've had it just as it comes. The beef taco was my favorite. I enjoyed the sweet and savory taste of the meat and combination of sauces. Would I take them over OG tacos? No. (real good authentic Mexican tacos a few stores down the same shopping center at El Jefe) But for being fusion tacos. Not bad. I give them 7/10.

My…read morefavorites are the fried rice and the lomo saltado both are consistently good and definitely what I keep coming back for. If you go late at night like I do, the ambience is really quiet and chill, which I actually like. It's a nice low-key spot to grab food without the usual crowd, and the food usually comes out pretty fast. Also, you have to try the popcorn chicken it's really good and worth adding to your order. Service is average, but it makes sense since there's usually only one person working at night. If it gets busy, there might be a bit of a wait, but it's understandable. Overall, a solid late-night food spot with good portions, fast service, and a chill vibe

    Overall pretty good!…read more I came here with my family so I had a very large party. I was lucky to receive my dish pretty quickly, but some of the other people in my party had to wait quite a bit. But I think the staff were working as fast as they could so ultimately, i think service was fine. I tried the lomo saltado with beef, fries and garlic noodles. Overall tasted great. The fries still managed to have a crispy texture and had a sweet and savory sauce flavor to them. The beef cubes were tender and cooked just right. The noodles were fine as well. I liked that the noodles werent too heavy. The portion size is very large though, i was very full by the end of it. The green milk tea was good too. The milk, sugar, and tea ratios were all balanced and the flavor was subtle. It had an interesting flavor that reminded me of grass jelly and milk, but in a good way.

    I LOVE THIS PLACE…read more Don't let the simple decor fool you - the chicken here is hands down one of the best hole in the wall locations for chicken that I've been to. Unlike your typical rotisserie or fried chicken, this place roasts their chicken in a large clay pot and the marinade is definitely not something that you can find easily. The smell of the chicken is so inviting on its own but you won't be able to smell it outside of the restaurant - gather some confidence and open that door! We got 1 whole chicken, bot chien, crispy rice, and a side of dry noodles. All of the sides are great - I've tried at least 1 option every time I come back here but my favorite is the dry noodles and crispy rice. Their chicken pairs TOOO WELL with the pickled veggies and their special soy sauce. I like mixing a little salt, pepper and lime in mine to make it extra sour but honestly, the chicken is great even without the sauce. It's a small restaurant and flagging down servers is not difficult but I love that they will come to check in on you pretty often without you putting out any effort. I've been here when it was super busy and when it's a little more free, the servers are nice, friendly & really responsive Pro tip : get more than 1 soy sauce!! You DEFINITELY will not be sharing it!

    4.5 !!!!!…read more I love love love loooooove Vietnamese food so much! It's become a top 3 cuisine for me! I either crave Spring rolls, Banh khot, Oxtail pho, egg rolls or egg noodle soup, viet wings and there's still many more things to try! One of my friends I met at personal training asked me out to lunch. We always eat well and this place was already on my list so I was game! Came in at a perfect time, right after a lunch rush. Sat down looked over the menu, pretty straightforward. Service was lovely, a little bit of language barrier but good nonetheless. We started with the Bot chien ( crispy rice cake with egg.) She asked if there was pork in the dish and they said no, she can't eat pork. It came out and it looked fantastic, looked like an omelet. I love eggy dishes! This was fantastic, definitely add a sauce like Sambal or Sriracha. We were off to a great start! But we came for the star of the show, Clay jar chicken with dry noodles!!! They set the bowls down and everything looked fantastic and smelled even better! A generous bowl of egg noodles, chicken and a side of broth in case you want to dip or just throw it in the bowl. We got to grubbin and it was instant love at first bite! The chicken was so tender and flavorful. We noticed these little cubes of tasty bits, we didn't know what they were because we didn't see it on the description, she already had a piece, we thought it was some sort of crispy bread crumb bits LOL. We asked the service and come to find out, it was crispy pork called Top Mo. We told them she can't have pork, they took the plate back. After a few minutes they came back. She asked is it a new dish or did you just pick them out. They picked them out. This is where the language barrier came into play. They didn't understand for a bit. I said she can't have pork because of her religion. That's when it clicked! Thank the Lord! Out came a fresh porkless new bowl and she could enjoy with me. They should've given me her previous bowl to go LOL I'm the pork Queen LOL. Overall a fantastic meal and I've been thinking about this meal for awhile. I need a reunion stat!!! Just so many good Vietnamese dishes in the area, it's hard to choose! I will be back!!!

We ordered the Papaya Salad, Garlic Chicken Rolls and their Beef Jerky Special. We had a lovely conversation with the owner and she gave us special instructions on how to eat everything, such as eating the jerky with a small ball of sticky rice and sauce, followed by a mouthful of papaya salad as a palate cleanser--We followed those instructions to a T and it was truly enjoyable! For impressions of each Entree: The Papaya Salad is incredible, we ordered it with a mild spice level sauce. It's light, flavorful and refreshing and serves as a perfect palate cleanser if you order it with another item, but having it on its own is perfectly fine as well. The Garlic Chicken Roll was fantastic, crispy roll and tender chicken on the inside. It came with a sweet dipping sauce that had a flavor we weren't expecting but a nice surprise. The Beef Jerky Special: I absolutely love the idea of the beef jerky with a crispy-charred outer shell. My critique would be to dial back the charred-ness a little bit so that it doesn't dominate the center flavor. It goes perfectly well with the sticky rice and the sauce it comes with is really nice. Really great establishment with great customer service, I look forward to visiting again!

For starters, we got their Chile-Lime Cauliflower, and it is so good! The chile-lime vinaigrette is really what makes it! I have never enjoyed cauliflower so much! I only wish they would cut the cauliflower into slightly smaller pieces so it's a little easier to eat. But other than that, highly recommend this dish! I wanted something warm and comforting, so I got their Ribeye Pho. It comes in a pretty big bowl with tenderized sliced ribeye steak, noodles, and all of the pho fixings. Will be back to try some of their other Asian fusion dishes!

The lobster wasn't included in one of the regular seafood combos, so I ordered it separately and added everything I wanted. I chose the Fire Crab seasoning, which I believe is a combination of their different seasonings, and it was so flavorful! I've been to several seafood-boil restaurants, but Fire Crab is easily one of the best I've had. The restaurant itself is cute, clean, and well kept. Most of the seating is booth-style, which makes it nice for families or even a casual little date night.

Unlike some places where I leave feeling bloated, I don't get that way here. The shrimp was cooked perfectly, which is harder to find than you'd think.

They definitely do not hold back on the garlic, which I loved. The garlic noodles were also incredibly buttery, flavorful, and downright addictive. What really made our experience stand out was the service. We came with a large group, and the owner was so sweet, attentive, and welcoming throughout our meal. It's clear they genuinely care about their customers and making sure everyone has a great experience. Great food, amazing service, and consistently delicious flavors. Fire Crab is a spot I'll keep coming back to!
