“Hands down my family’s favorite place to eat in La Verne — WaBa Grill! 🍚🔥

I’ve been to other WaBa Grill locations, but this La Verne location is extra, extra clean. The restaurant is always spotless, and the food is consistently fresh and delicious every time we visit.
What really makes it special is the amazing staff and owner. Everyone is so friendly and welcoming with a smile which makes the whole experience even better.

If you’re in La Verne and looking for a healthy, tasty meal, this spot is definitely a go to!!
Our favorite is the dumplings and the works! Beef and chicken combo. My kids loves it!!!“

“The place is nice and our server was really nice as well! The only reason why I give them 4 stars was because the menu wasn’t rly non spicy friendly, just since I can’t really handle spicy foods there weren’t really any options for me to eat.“

“Absolutely amazing experience! The staff was incredibly friendly and provided excellent service from start to finish. The restaurant was spotless, the atmosphere was warm and inviting, and the food was fresh, delicious, and high quality. You can tell they truly care about their customers and take pride in what they do. One of the best locations I’ve visited—highly recommend!“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Jose D provided excellent service! Even though it was busy, he stayed friendly, quick, and efficient the whole time. He got my order right, kept things moving, and had a great attitude.

It’s not always easy to find that kind of service in fast food, but Jose really stood out. I appreciate the great experience!“

“I had a very good experience at this place. Usually they don’t have servers but at this location the worker Monica took the food to my table. The food was delicious and healthy
Monica was friendly and attentive. I will definitely return to this location more often.“

“All that everyone and everything was excellent“

“So excited to find this place. It’s been a favorite for a long, but didn’t know one was so much closer than the Downey and Long Beach locations. Haven’t had a bad meal yet, and my favorite is the Garlic Twister. And the service here is very friendly“

“The staff is super friendly and gave us great recommendations for food and sauces. The food came out fast and all tasted great. Everything is super clean and the atmosphere is great. Highly recommend. We had sliders and mozzarella stix, everything was fresh and tasted great!“

“best chicken ever tender ,juicy crunchy! mmm!“

“This little small Korean wings spot surprise me. I got the Korean barbecue spicy wings with fries. And the wings came out super crispy and flavorful. The fries that look really mid surprise me as well with this spices which again was very flavorful. I was looking for a new wings location and this is by far the best I’ve been to in all of I.E. I highly recommend this place if you love Korean wings.“

“Super friendly staff and a cozy atmosphere. The chicken was crispy and juicy. Salsas are definitely worth a try! Food was served straight to our table within 5-10 minutes after ordering. The staff was so helpful in picking out deals and coupons. I highly recommend this place. The prices are low, and just a great establishment overall.“

“chicken wings off the hook“

“It's located next to Mi Pulgarcito Pupiseria Salvadoreña and near GS Ethiopian Cafe. I had went to this plaza for another restaurant but they closed already for lunch. I decided to try this grilled chicken place, reminds me of Juan Pollo or El Pollo Loco. It seems family owned with a young teen taking my order.

I chose to try the 16 piece family special with half spicy and regular chicken ($44.99) which came with 4 large sides, tortillas and salsa. I chose their macaroni salad, potato salad, rice, and beans. I got a lunch special for myself that came with a can of soda. The seasoning on the chicken was good, the spicy chicken had a good heat. The skin was crispy and the chicken was moist. My family did not like the sides of macaroni and potato salad.

The staff was nice and the wait time was not long.“

“This spot is by far my most favorite chicken joint. I have been coming here for the past decade and the food never ceases to amaze me. Each time I am brought to nostalgia despite the amount of different locations I have been to. 10/10 would recommend to anyone who wants to find a new spot.“

“Ever since we've been living in Chino Hills, this place has consistently been a great spot for delicious chicken, pasta, and their incredible sides. This place has always been the perfect catering place when we are hosting birthday partie & baby showers. We can always count on them to serve tasty chicken and those delicious sides.“

“It’s so good and they’re survice😘“

“Great children foods .. it easy fast food and it very delicious 🤤 I will come back after gym“

“There is only 1 nice guy manning the front and kitchen. I tried calling ahead but the phone wasn’t working. I left and came back after 30 min for 1 order of popcorn chicken but it wasn’t ready. The owner is not doing his or her job cheaping out on service. They are lucky to have this guy working here.“

“My family picks up here at least once every week and I can’t say enough positive things about it. As a fitness nut, it’s important to me to have healthy options and so I often find myself ordering from chicken shops. Since discovering Rostichicken I have stopped going to other shops. The chicken here is fantastic and is very tender; I can pull the skin off to save calories or leave it on to enjoy the crispy skin. The price is also competitive and less than Pollo for higher quality food.

Additionally, the staff is fantastic. They are so welcoming and seemingly in a great mood. They remember me and my daughter, always encourage her to talk, and often give her extra rice which she loves. It all means a lot to myself and my wife but I assure you… I wouldn’t come back if the food was bad. 😉“

“Im new around the walnut CA area and i decided to give this spot a try. i asked for recommendations and the 2 young ladys were really helpful and patient with me. The food was amazing my favorite was the rose pasta! I definitely will be returning“

“The best fried chicken I’ve ever had, but I’m not convinced when you order a whole chicken that you really get a whole chicken because my wife and I cannot eat a whole chicken from anywhere else but we can eat the whole chicken from BBQ chicken… puzzling. I don’t really understand it.“

“The lunch meal deal from 10am-4pm is perfect. The boneless chicken is large so the price is very fitting. Good thick fries, amd their sauces are very tasty as well! Also good entertainment in the resturant as well with a few TVs playing different things. Overall, this is a great wings place!“

“friendly atmosphere, good customer service and very clean“

“Surprisingly it be actually pretty good 😩“

“la verdad recomiendo todo está muy rico el pollo.arroz.ensaladas.salsas.frijoles. además buen servicio“

“I know this shop used to have a not so great reputation in the 90's early 2000's, but honestly this is my go to now for croissants, deep fried fish, and some other Chinese stuff on the side. They have variety as far as their food and I personally love their ham/cheese/jalapeño croissants and their maple bars. Fried fish and chicken is definitely solid compared to other chain restaurants. If you're a pomona local check them out and stop by for breakfast or lunch! ❤️“

“雞肉鮮嫩多汁，迅速送餐，餐廳乾淨明亮舒適！可惜沾醬少了一點…“

“fast, friendly service for being do busy three employees always make time to see if you're ok or need refills.“

“I came in to order a big tray, and Demi provided such wonderful service. He was very friendly, attentive, and thoughtful. He offered extra sauces and plates without me even having to ask, which was very helpful. Demi was warm and welcoming, and his great customer service made the whole experience even better. Thank you, Demi!“

“I have been coming to this location for quite some time, and Lucia is always friendly, welcoming, and has a great attitude with a smile on her face. She is very helpful and goes above and beyond to make customers feel comfortable. The service is consistently excellent, and her positive energy makes every visit a pleasant experience. Thank you, Lucia, for providing such great customer service!“

“Love their Christmas lights. And their peppermint shake.“

“It's been over 2 years since I've eaten here. The prices have increased a bit, but the service by Michael was wonderful and the food is still DELICIOUS! 😋“

“The best service and food as expected. This is another well managed location. I’ll be back😁“

“honestly my favorite hot chicken spot. super glad to have one within 5 minutes of me!“

“El mejor pollo rostisado que he probado, su sabor y textura es incomparable..“

“Service is fast despite the volume of customers but you can call in orders ahead of time and 99% of the time its ready when you arrive. The food is really good and I usually order the beef bowl but the burgers and fries are just as satisfying. They do have a full menu as well.“

“Probably one of the most overlooked healthy options for fast food. 🥑 I originally would come in for the guacamole chicken burrito. But I discovered the value menu has the three tacos Al carbon e taco deal for $8 that gets you drinks and a bag of chips. Super tasty, it's quick and healthy. 😘👌“

“Very good home style meal. Not the cheapest, but good valued meal.“

“Great experience at WaBa Grill! The place was clean, the cashier was very nice, and the food was fresh and flavorful. We had shrimp, chicken, and tofu bowls—everything was delicious. The shrimp portion was good, just slightly shy of perfect, but still very satisfying. I’ll definitely be back!“

“Knowing everything at Habibi's Hot Chicken is halal made it an easy choice to try. The chicken was tender, crispy, and seasoned perfectly, and every bite was full of flavor. The restaurant had a great vibe, and the staff was friendly and attentive. I can definitely see myself coming back again soon.“

“My order here is always correct.“

“muy buena comida libre de grasa hecha en el instante q la ordenas“

“Had moved out of state two years ago and was genuinely missing El Pollo. Was in town a couple days and it was on the food Fav list to hit on my brief visit. Thankfully, I was NOT disappointed. Service was spot on and the food was fresh and FABULOUS!“

“I came to this Waba grill

“If you’re looking for a truly unique dining experience, East Town Yard Fried Chicken is a must-visit. From the moment you step inside, you’re transported to a nostalgic 70s-era China with the restaurant's quirky decor. The red brick walls and enamel plates evoke a sense of vintage charm, while the slogan wall adds a playful touch, making it a perfect blend of culture and creativity.

Now, let's talk about the food—this place is a game-changer. The northern-style stir-fried chicken is unlike anything you've had before. Tender chicken, packed with flavor, is stir-fried to perfection—not deep-fried—allowing the natural taste of the meat to shine through. The spices are perfectly balanced, offering a delightful kick without overwhelming the palate. Every dish here feels authentically Chinese, with rich flavors that are both comforting and exciting.

What truly sets this place apart is the attention to detail in every aspect—from the food to the ambiance. The staff is friendly and welcoming, and you can tell they take pride in what they serve. Whether you're a fan of traditional Chinese cuisine or looking to try something new, East Town Yard Fried Chicken offers a memorable dining experience you won’t soon forget. Highly recommend!“

“I started going to this Waba Grill pretty recently when passing through the area, and I gotta say, it's my favorite one to go to! By far the cleanest one, my food is served quickly with the correct portions, and all in all I could tell people work efficiently around here. The last few times I went, I was served by Jaime and Alex; I've had different vibes from different workers across different locations, but I feel I get the best vibes when coming here and when I've been served by these two! 5/5 would recommend pulling up if you're in the area.“

“Love this place always clean, service is excellent, staff is friendly, attentive and the food is excellent. Eat there three times a week in this location. Place rocks.
