While some patrons appreciate the convenient location and friendly, attentive staff, others report issues with cleanliness and inconsistent food quality.

The chicken was served cold and the rice was undercooked. I definitely won’t be returning to this location.

I’ve been waiting for an order that was supposed to be ready 15 minutes ago. There are no other customers here—how is that possible? It feels like they don’t care about their customers. That’s my impression.

I have visited Waba Grill several times. It’s conveniently located near Cardenas Market, and I often stop by after getting a haircut nearby. The meals are consistently delicious and well-prepared. Additionally, the staff are friendly and attentive. The prices remain reasonable, even during the current inflation. I definitely recommend stopping by if you’re in the area.

Currently out of steak due to supply chain issues, but I was glad to try the spicy sweet chicken bowl at Waba Grill instead. If you haven't already, be sure to try their spicy Waba sauce—it's a standout. Compared to other places, the menu at Waba Grill offers cleaner, healthier options.

I rarely write reviews, but Waba Grill deserves a negative five stars. The place is filthy, with an unpleasant odor throughout. The restaurant is extremely disorganized, and the counter is covered in dust and grime. The food quality is inconsistent—it's either very good or truly terrible, never anywhere in between. The employees, who have to clock in at such an unclean establishment, must have a tough time working here.
