    I am very disappointed with my experience at Waba Grill. I have been here before, and it used to be much better, but this visit was nothing like I remembered. The quality of the restaurant seems to have gone downhill in several ways. The biggest issue was the portion size. The amount of food I received was much smaller than it used to be, even though the prices have continued to increase. I don't mind paying for a good meal, but I expect to receive a reasonable portion for the price. Instead, I left feeling like I didn't get my money's worth. Another problem was the extremely long wait time. It took much longer than expected to receive my food, even though it didn't seem busy enough to justify such a delay. Customers shouldn't have to wait that long for a simple order. The customer service also wasn't very professional. Some of the younger employees appeared to be more interested in joking around and talking with each other than helping customers or preparing orders efficiently. It gave the impression that the restaurant wasn't being managed very well. While I was there, I personally witnessed people fighting, which made the environment feel uncomfortable and chaotic. I also personally saw one of the workers smoking during my visit, which did not leave a good impression of the restaurant's professionalism. Overall, this was a very disappointing experience. Between the small portions, slow service, unprofessional behavior, and the atmosphere during my visit, I don't plan on returning anytime soon. I hope management addresses these issues because this restaurant used to be much better.

    How much rotten greens are acceptable in a $9 salad? None. I should have walked away when I saw the B health rating. Chicken was stringy and inedible. Raise your standards Waba!!!!

    Veggie rice bowl with steak

    I live WaBa grill! Food is always tasty. I usually get the veggie rice bowl with steak, i didn't disappoint. I also tried the boom boom taco. It was a little sweet for my taste but it was still really good. If you want some wow on your taste buds. Give it a try. Staff at this location was friendly.

    The worst Waba grill you will ever go to. I feel bad for every employee in there, the owner is constantly screaming at them and throwing his hands in the air. It's a really hostile environment for a restaurant. Yelled at the poor kid for giving me an extra sauce, and well from the pic, you can see why we have to ask for extra. There is only a tiny drop in each tiny container. I would happily pay for the damn sauce, just give me SAUCE! Worst of all my bowl had like 4 tiny strips of chicken TOTAL. Really wish corporate would step in and clean this place up. The owner is RUDE to all customers and awful to his employees.

    The place is also dusty and unkept

    The shrimp has zero seasoning, very nasty. The napkins here are behind the counter and employees are stingy with them which isn't fun when you spilled a little water on your table. If you look around the walls are begging to be repainted and dusted.

    We discovered this restaurant on our way back from 123 Farm and were pleasantly surprised. My son…read moreabsolutely loved their baguette--he devoured the entire thing in one sitting! We ordered two bánh mì sandwiches (shrimp and lemongrass beef) along with an order of four fried egg rolls. Their fired egg roll option are only available in either shrimp or pork. They were tasty, but I would have loved to see a chicken option on the menu as well. One thing to note: jalapeños are automatically added to the bánh mì, so be sure to request no jalapeños when ordering if you're sensitive to spice. The seasoning and flavors in both bánh mì sandwiches were excellent, and all of the vegetables served with the bánh mì and egg rolls were fresh and crisp. In my opinion, it's often the little details like fresh produce that reveal the quality of a restaurant, and this place definitely delivered. We arrived around 7:30 PM and were a little concerned that we might feel rushed since it was getting close to closing time. Fortunately, that wasn't the case at all. The staffs allowed us to enjoy our meal at a comfortable pace, and we never felt pressured to leave. The dining area had two TVs showing family-friendly programming--one featured a Vietnamese cooking show, while the other was airing FIFA coverage on a news channel. It created a relaxed atmosphere, and we enjoyed a calm dinner with our 3- and 6-year-old children after a long day at the lavender farm. I also tried the Orange Thai Iced Tea. It was refreshing, though I didn't really notice much orange flavor. There are two individual single-stall restrooms available, and both were clean. Families will also appreciate that high chairs are conveniently located near the sauce and drink station. Overall, we had a very enjoyable experience and would definitely return. Next time, I'd love to try their pho!

So much meat, very tender, and full of flavor. When I saw it was approx $18, initially i thought it was kinda pricy. But after receiving and finishing my order, i realized it's worth every penny. The delicious lamb was OVERFLOWING out the pita. Friendly staff as well. My Only small complaint is that it was a bit stuffy in there , like if the a/c wasn't fully on or something. Either way, i'd come back anyway!

    My first time trying out this place. I choose to do the drive through. Oh my the menu is extensive,…read moreso many choices. I had a taste for the Gyro and noticed there was a Philly cheese steak Gyro on the menu. Well you guessed it my friend that was my choice. Cooked to order so you will have a bit of a wait...however the wait time was well worth it ! That was one of the best Gyros I'v had in a long time. Also it was huge and took me 3 days to finish. Absolutely delicious, everything about it ! Customer service was kind & friendly. I was given a $5 dollar coupon to use when I come back. So if you are ever in the area and you have a taste for a Gyro....This is the place ! Thank you for fulfilling my need and just know that ....I'll Be Back !!! Chef Ann

    Overall, a high 3.9 Food 4.2…read moreAmbience 3 Service 4.2 but there's just a few things that keep it from going higher. So for the starters. The food is not bad those days were it taste better than other days but overall pretty consistent. I like grilled jalapeño or peppers with my food and seems like the last few times I went through the drive-through. They keep telling me that they ran out whatever no big deal I mean, kind of The sauce that they give you with the food is very flavorful and robust with great distinct flavoring. The drive-through girls are nice friendly and definitely try and help out. The portions are nice size however, if you order any meat burrito they seem to load it more with rice and beans, then put the meat in closer to the bottom. The food is OK I mean if you want more authentic Mexican food this place is not a bad option. I know they're better places, but it is what it is.

    My daughter and I desired Asian food. We had a choice, Panda Express or China Bowl. Last time was…read morethe Bowl so we opted of Panda Express. We were both very hungry. My daughter made the run ( I paid) ordering at about 19:30 hrs. The order consisted of 2 plates, one small entree and two spring rolls. Arriving home we opened the "plates", which were identical. The one I chose opened with a surprise. A lot of chow Mein and little of the entree(s). Photo attached. My Hot Orange chicken had a whopping 5 pieces, one larger than the others. And Beijing Beef had 8 pieces but 4 were small tidbits. I've always known: if you want quantity, go to China Bowl. Something closer to home, Panda. My daughter opened hers and it too was limited but not like mine. She had a couple more pieces than mine. To top it off, my daughter had asked for extra sauces, specifying Sweet and Sour sauce for the spring rolls and Teriyaki for the chow mein because it is alway dry. There were none. There was not any cutlery, which would have been difficult had we not returned home to eat. The price of this was $37.08. Had we gone to China Bowl the cost, with tax, would have been $23.50 and we would have been satisfied. Also, China Bowl has the best BBQ Pork - China Express.... NONE I think we will stick to China Bowl in the future, drive the xtra mile. Open the photo of plate to see the full photo.
