First time at this location. The food was good, and the service was super quick. Really like the atmosphere at this.location, as the ones we usually go are small.

Thanks you soo much !!! Best service ever . Come here you guys it’s the best!

Clean dining room and restroom (code required). Friendly staff. The shrimp tacos have a nice kick.

First time visiting this concept. The employee working the cashier was very helpful in answering my menu questions. The food was tasty. The place was very clean. The only negative comment I have is that besides the cashier the two other employees in the front were not that pleasant. I don’t think they liked me asking questions about the menu all that much. Even though I told them it was my first time to WaBa Grill.

I come to this location pretty often, amazing food! No complaints ever Staff is amazing

WaBa Grill was awesome. I got the WaBa Rice Bowl with half a avocado and it was just delicious. The employees were super nice and it was spotless clean with nearly no waiting time. Great atmosphere, a definitive 5 out of 5. I will recommend this place to my friends and I am definitely coming back. Good job guys!
