Wow, Waba Grill! Arrived at 10 A.M. to meet-up with someone. Very clean outside and inside upon entry. Outside eating area was clean, as in all tables and seats were clean. Inside seating, tables, soda bar, and order counter were clean. Clean!
Staff was very friendly, all while busy prepping for the lunch crowd.
I ordered a steak soft taco (yes, at 10 A.M. ). Excellent, even better at 10 A.M.
The Waba soda bar deserves a round of applause. Nice to see flavors not found at other restaurants (or 7-11).
(And here is a ‘dig’ at McDonald’s. There is a move in their chain … removing … the dine-in soda bar. That was a benefit of dining in, now being stripped away by a zillion-dollar glutton.)
One more thing, in the background they are playing Michael Jackson’s “Beat It” which just makes this outing at Waba Grill more fun.
Kudos for Waba Grill.

47$ for 1 small taco, 3 tiny drinks and 3 bowls ?? Such small chicken portions and the chicken was so bland and no green onions?! I couldn’t finish my bowl; it was just so sad tasting. The cashier was very nice thoug, 5 stars for her.

The chicken did not taste good the rice was undercooked. The doors were open flies flying all around. No magic sauce in the dispenser ,No AC.

All taste the same, it all looks the same, even the portions look the same. They don’t have chopsticks don’t even ask, Use their sprork. Very minimal customer service. Asian fusion without the Asian….

Rude and Careless employee…. No greet, no acknowledgement, and no customer etiquette. Went for dinner on 2/5/25 at around 6:20 PM younger employee. Seems like she hated her job and everyone around her. Ridiculous and rude service.

Great food. Loads of sauce and toppings. Plenty of indoor and umbrella-shaded outdoor seating for summer heat/humidity . though packed a bit close at this location, there’s lots of airflow. Cashier was efficient. Portions of salmon protein somewhat on the small side if you have a huge appetite like mine. Prices are higher than the more budget-minded competing chains but quality is excellent and choices are more premium. You’ll want to keep it in your rotation

Dang kind of upset I pay $12 for each of these and they couldn’t even give me a little bit more meat. Been a fan of Waba Grill for over 10 years now and will probably be my last time.

Place is nice and so is the staff.
lets talk about the items.
the bowl in 2019, large and inexpensive.
they would even have deals of 2 bowls for $12, now its almost $12 for 1.
the bowl in 2022, smaller and more expensive.
Its just sad that all these companies are pulling this trick of serving smaller sizes and charging more. This is not inflation, this is greed.
Keeping the poor poor.
