"Haven’t been to a Wagamama in quite a while, so it was interesting to experience the new menu, which had many tempting dishes.
Service was very quick and the staff very friendly - did feel slightly guilty as we didn’t we were the last to leave and had been talking for ages…
Great food that was reasonably priced - absolutely worth visiting if you’re in the area."

"Wonderful experience having lunch here.
Great food & drinks, great service, and good atmosphere (although it was crowded).
Better to reserve a table if you'd prefer a table for 4 persons, so you don't get the long table (join with other customers).
Toilets for customers are available."

"Looks tiny from the street but upstairs is a pretty big space, loads of atmosphere, cleanly fitted out as you'd expect.
Food as ever comes out randomly and being a Saturday evening, we had long waits for dishes.
The Ginger ramen and the bar bun were good. The gyoza was probably the worst I've had. More like a pie than the usual light and crispy dish you think of. Filling however was generous and tasty.
The Chicken and Ginger ramen was excellent. The Thai beef salad was tasty but it wasn't a Thai Beef Salad. Was a poke Bowl with well-done beef!!
Its not bad but these days there are way better options."
