Visited our most local Wagamama over the weekend. As it was a Saturday it was quite busy and there was a 10 minute wait to get in, but the food is pretty good, so worth the wait. They definitely don't skimp on flavour in this place! The menu has something for everyone and there are loads of vegan options too if you are that way inclined. Also LOVE that the toilets are gender neutral too - big points for that. The whole meal was an enjoyable experience, although the service (especially after the meal) was very slow and we ended up waiting 30-40 minutes to get "our" waiter's attention to get the bill. I'll definitely go back though, and if you haven't been yet, you should go for your debut katsu curry experience!

G. R.

First time I've been to Wagamama's and the food was delicious. We tried the little duck pancakes and soft steamed rolls with Korean BBQ beef and red onion to begin, followed by the chicken katsu curry and duck ramen; all dishes I'd highly recommend. The restaurant is lovely, with the kitchen visible to customers which I love to see. As for the staff they're amazing, friendly, professional, helpful at suggestions, what more can I say! We were served by Natalie who was lovely, really looked after us and Jim the manager was great too. No wonder people were queueing out of the door to come in!

T. M.

Top quality food and quick service. Staff are friendly and helpful. Normally quite busy but I have never needed an appointment and never waited too long to be seated.

S. K.

Ordered the Vegan Katsu Curry, it was nice but prefer Tofu katsu curry, would definitely have it again. Service was very fast and stay are friendly. Clean place and good choice in menu.

G. T.

Lovely experience whenever we go here. Enjoy the food but sometimes the same meal that you ordered before can taste quite different a week or month after you return.

R. R.

Was really good love eating here

r. r.

Always a favorite, menu is great service fast and friendly.

J. W.

We decided to try Wagamama and afterwards we agreed we were glad we did. It offers a different eating experience which is both fun and entertaining. There is a large choice of menu options available as you watch the dishes travel round on the conveyor belt. Katsu curry was very tasty and they do offer a range of vegetarian and vegan dishes. So something to suit all palates should be available.

A. C.

Fantastic food, a great place to go on a first date. Chicken broth is delicious would reccomend

S. W.

I always love coming here. The food is great - especially the vegan menu. The restaurant feels chic but cosy. A great place for a date.

s. j.

Great friendly staff. The food is excellent, was fairly quick and the portion sizes are good. We'll worth a visit. We will be back.

C. W.

Food was great but wait staff were overwhelmed at lunch time which made ordering difficult. Our waiter kept walking off half way through our orders, plus I was given a spoon to eat a tuna steak with.

R.

A-mazing customer service provided yesterday by Asia (Joanna M) Very polite, professional, speedy and smiley. The five star experience. The food was fab as always.

r.

Loved it !

T. M.

Fantastic service and a lovely clean restaurant. The food is always excellent. If you're not open to trying new foods this may not be for you but if you are there are some great dishes served here

A. A.

Very nice food.

S. W.

I have been here several times and have always had friendly and relatively fast service. Whilst there are several other places in Leicester that offer perhaps more authentic Asian food, the food at Wagamamas is still very high quality.

B. S.

Strange concept, great food

P. B.

Huge shout out to the staff at Wagamamas Leicester. Left a phone on the table after our meal, they kept it safe for us until we could pick it up, no trouble. Great food, great staff!

W. K. N.

great food, the portions are huge so you get what you pay for :) really nice staff and just a cute place to have a lunch or dinner at

A. N.

Long wait, average food.

P. F.

Visited today after lockdown! Excellent service and yummy foods. Will definitely come back again soon.

C. B.

First time 8ve ever been and couldn't recommend it more the food was great really tasty and well cooked and the service was great. Definitely be back

S. T.

Great menu a great favourite with the vegans in our family

W. E.

great food and service, especially in concerns to allergies, whilst not having a massive range on the specific gluten-free menu they took the allergy into consideration and were very cautious of cross contamination, only letting their senior members dealing with me.

d. h.

Brilliant as always! If you're visiting for the first time I'd recommend trying the firecracker. It's simply delicious!

K. J.

Really impressed, great service and tasty food.

R. D. E. (.

Superb service, amazing food, their staff care about you and are willing to help out with allergies. Cannot advise how good they are enough!

S. J.

Love it, but can't help feeling it's a bit overpriced!

J. M.

We been served by VLAD TODAY .Service was amazing .Excellent customer service we will be back again. Thank you :)

B. R.

It has been a while since I lest visited because I never liked the lack of service, or sitting directly next to strangers. But thankfully both these issues have been resolved with a new seating plan, and more staff. The food is good although Wagamama takes the 'inspired by' only lightly as many recopies have been adapted to a UK pallet. For example the dip that comes with the Gyoza is far spicier than what you would find in Japan, the Nori in the Ramen has little to no flavour, and all the dishes are strictly Tofu or Meat with no combination of the two. I was surprised that there is nothing Matcha flavoured on the entire menu, and all the deserts are western, with only one item, a 'Sweet Ginger And Apple Gyoza' that even sounds like it might be Japanese (it isn't). The presentation leaves much to be desired and makes me think they haven't put any heart into their food. The atmosphere is nice with good lighting and clean lines. The bill was a little more than I was expecting, but there isn't much competition in the UK from other Japanese 'Ramen Bar inspired' restaurants so that is to be expected. More than anything I think the over tailoring of their menu to a UK pallet is a shame. For more adventitious dinners or people wanting to sample real Japanese cuisine, look elsewhere.

e. r.

Had a pleasant family dining experience at this restaurant. Staff are super attentive to people with food allergies and makes sure that they get it right!

A. T.

Lovely meal out, Grace our waitress was wonderful.

L. J.

I'm big fan of Chicken katsu curry, Ebikatsu and Chilli squid

N. M.

Food was nice but a bit over priced for what it is, portions could do with being a little bigger. Overall it's typical chain restaurant Food done fairly well

Y. J.

Very friendly staff, we ordered something we can’t eat by mistake and they changed for us. it’s a good place to visit

D. U.

Great Covid measures in place. Food was fantastic. Recommend Hot Katsu Curry. Real nice kick of spice

I. E. N.

Fantastic food, incredible service, good prices. It's the first Wagamama I try, but if all of them work like this one, I would totally recommend them.

E. M.

I always get the tonkatsu and always forget that the reason i said i wouldn't get it next time would be so i wouldn't feel bad getting the banana katsu pudding, which is delicious. And the dumplings are lovely.

P. H.

Had a great time here. Fantastic service with the food and besides that friendly advices of what to do in Leicester from the waitress.

B. R.

If you've never been anywhere like this before, it can seem a little intimidating and odd with the open plan seating, but honestly, the food is so great you quickly forget all about who's sat next to you.

D. J.

One of my favorite places. Food always delicious. very nice and helpful stuff.

S. B.

We went for our daughters birthday meal. Wow what fabulous service we have had from Stefan! From start to finish, his service was outstanding. He took on board, there was a allergy took a lot of care. We are leaving extremely happy with the service! Stefan is a credit to wagamamas.

J. W.

Amazing food and service, will be back again :)

R. B.

Great size portion, very friendly and accommodating staff. Enjoyed our lunch here. Thanks.

P. W.

Good food, prompt service.... But can't help feeling that it's less of an exotic experience and more like a Japanese Harvester

B. P.

Always like going into a Wagamama, if it was only for a takeaway this time around. Food's good and the staff very helpful. Will be going back for more when I'm next in town.

A. E.

FOOD WAS HOT THE SERVICE WAS GOOD, IVE VISITED MANY WAGAMAMAS THIS WAS ONE OF THE BEST FOOD STANDARDS AS IT WAS HOT AND THE FOOD WAS TASTY. IT ISNT THE CHEAPEST PLACE TO EAT BUT THE STANDARD ON THE WHOLE IS GOOD IN THE MAJORITY OF RESTAURANTS.

M. B.

H. R.

T. H.

Never had a bad experience and food is served fresh but quickly. Happy with that

S. D.

Great menu, the food is delicious. The staff are always friendly would recommend.

T. F.

I'm guessing they've changed the chef again because the beef teriyaki soba doesn't taste like it used to and lacks any teriyaki favour :(

K. C.

Great chefs and friendly staff

S. U.

The food is amazing and the atmosphere is even better, great place to go with friends for a dinner out or an off camber place to take clients.

R. P.

Good place in city center. Some dishes are very good. Others average. Worth a visit anyway.

A. G. U.

H. b.

Really nice food and the service was brilliant.

J. B.

Good location, usual waga food, nice staff. Food was slow on my visit - but it was busy and they did apologise.

S.

Typical Wagamama. If that doesn't mean anything. You'll find excellent Asian food. Try the Ramen for a very good treat!

L. P.

Starting to like this place more, especially if I need to get some vegatables in. Kimchi is excellent, needs bigger pots of it though.

Z. I.

Massive, delicious portions. Super friendly staff and relaxed atmosphere!

A. G.

Lovely food, can sometimes be a bit loud during peak hours. No guarantee your food will all arrive at the same time

S. M.

I love this place. Chilli squid is amazing 100% recommend. Went disliking sea food. 🤔 Left loving it. 10/10. 😍

P. C.

Food was cooked spot on, all the staff are welcoming and explain everything to you if your unsure, 10/10 would go again

P. J.

Great food , very modern interior but seats slightly to close to each other

L. K.

Japanese fusion cuisine. Great with a group of friends or you're trying to impress your date with chopsticks. Go in for a selection of starters and a lucky buddha, would recommend hirata buns and the squid 🦑

S. L.

Really like the food available here, a once in a while experience visit is worth it.

L. D.

Delightful food served promptly and extremely diligently

R. N.

Great food that arrived quickly, staff were all friendly and attentive.

R. S.

First time experience, and yes used chopsticks, good food and staff were very good,friendly and helpful.

B. J.

Great food. Great vegan choices. But perhaps if all vegetarian dishes could be veganized?

A.

I didn't think that I will eat Japanese food one day & even if I did, I thought that I will never like it .. But this restaurant makes me change my opinion .. It is addictive .. 😋

E. B.

Love their chicken ramen. My daughter loves their chicken katsu curry. Drinks overpriced.

w.

Chris served us and he was great! The food was delicious Overall it was great

N. B.

I like it here... pho and wagamama are nice. Safe and vibrant environment. Would recommend the Terry beef.

B. C.

We attended for lunch on Friday and whilst the food/ experience was enjoyable, 2/3 of our party were unwell that afternoon/ evening which was disappointing

M. M.

They deserve 5 stars rating for the following reasons: - short wait to be seated. - staff are prompt they cleaned the tables very quickly to make sure that customers in the waiting area are seater ASAP. - staff and friendly and nice. - The menu has been wide vegan meals options. - Appetizers and main dish took less than 15 minutes to be delivered to my table. - Delicious food. - Above all a nice dining atmosphere. Thank you Visited on the 13th of Feb 2022

J. D.

Great food, but prone to mistakes during busy times.

T. F.

Transcendent. My stomach has never experienced such a wonderous meal.

M. B.

Quite expensive for what it is. I'm not so keen on the did coming out whenever it's ready rather than starters together, mains together etc.

B. P.

food was good, but service was slow and disjointed. water came out last which surely should be first , as it doesn't take anyone to prepare .

A. K.

Don't know what all the fuss is about. Better now that they have a vegetarian menu.

Great food. Great service. Great prices.

C. M.

Love eating here. My son loves it too and he's only 9yrs old. Alway clean and food is hot when served.

T.

I ordered grilled chicken ramen and hoisin pulled duck buns, which were both nice but chicken tasted like it was overcooked. My boyfriend has bang bang cauliower and a udon noodle dish (which was very spicy, it was so funny). I also ordered cherry blossom lemonade, even though it looks aesthetically pleasing, it didn't taste good. But overall, it was very nice, waitress was very pleasant too.

C. A. g.

Very good menu

Vegan menu was delish

Always enjoy the food at WAGGS

K. S.

Very good place to visit. First of all you get approached by staff and quickly allocated a seat and then when you decide what to eat they take order and in my case I have ordered quite few things, it started coming after maybe 5-7 minutes which was really quick as it was busy saturday afternoon. Only con is that it was coming not in order so my starter came after my main.

S. V.

Nice noodle joint

V. L.

We have visited Wagamama multiple times and we were never disappointed. Food here is tasteful and savoury at reasonable prices. Located at the heart of the Highcross Shopping centre makes it ideal for lunch/dinner during the weekends. We have tried the steamed buns from starters and Tori Kara age (chicken bites, coated with herbs and spices) and they are sensational. From mains I would most definitely recommend the beef brisket ramen. Succulent, pungent beef with a flavourful broth makes it the definition of comfort food. Katsu curry (chicken) and beef teriyaki donbury are really nice as well.

L. B. (.

Very good yes

Overall good experience and extremely tasty food. Only negative is the food is bit too expensive for the portion sizes and we were not given cutlery to actually eat the food, until we asked for it and got it a few minutes after the food had arrived.

We like the wagamama concept. And this restaurant is doing a great job. Very pleasant service and very busy. The staff is working hard and are very attentive. The food is as expected very good and tasty. Location of the restaurant is brilliant and easy to reach while doing a bit of shopping in leicester

Good food, friendly staff, nota bad view 👌

M. K.

Food is amazing and the service is great. Sometimes it does take a while to get served. The seating area next to the door is very cold due to people coming in and out and the door is faulty (does not close fully letting draft in)

D. K.

The vegan options were extremely tasty, really nice that there was a completely separate vegetarian / vegan menu. Plenty of dessert choice. A must try especially in January.

Visited the restaurant in High Cross Leicester last Thursday evening. First family dinner since lock down. Service was outstanding! A young lady named Kathryn (may I add new employee) delivered the best customer service I have experienced in a very long time. Bare in mind I work in the hospitality Industry. A great asset to the company and thank you Kathryn for making our evening so memorable and special. Food was brilliant and thank you to the whole team for all their effort during such difficult times.

The vegan items we tried were incredibly tasty, the Teriyaki vegan "Chicken" ramen in particular was amazing and made me question multiple times if they had just served me a Chicken ramen as the taste and texture of the "Chicken" was spot on.

Really nice food and great service.

I gave 5 stars because of nice time there with family but specially because of lovely and nice person SILVIA, she hosted us.. Hope she will receive this message.. thanks

M. M.

The Leicester branch is amazing. However everytime I go there something is always sold out or they are not doing their juices which is ashame. I am sure their portion sizes have reduced... the atmosphere and customer service is the best!

A. M.

Amazing, customer focused service. Lovely, well prepared and presented meals served in a relaxed and inviting atmosphere. Highly recommend.

I.

absolutely amazing experience!!! allergies catered for amazingly and the staff were incredible!! thanks ash and celeste!!

A. J. S.

Lovely food and quick service. We arrived early so got a table straight away. Food was delicious and table service great.

M. K.

Foods not been the best, it's been so downhill with their service and customer service

K. S.

Great food and atmosphere. This place takes great care of your allergen requirements. Definitely recommend it

S. Q.

Really fast and friendly service. Also very clean and the food was bursting with loads of flavour.

M. K.

Monday later afternoon visit therefore quiet and extremely quick service of food, always enjoyable and fresh, staff always polite and friendly

S. M.

Fab food and great selection of juices and the non-alcoholic mojito was delicious.

A. K.

Food was great but the service wasn't the best. Our food arrived at different times, long wait in between seeing a dish arrive.. You would expect a chain like this to get the basics right.

D. J.

Good food, fast service, can't go wrong

C. D.

Food is excellent and the staff go above and beyond

C. T.

Very considerate staff, good service, good toilets, good company

H. S.

Me and my sister came here for lunch today, the food was delicious and quick as always. We were served my the lovely Kat who was friendly, professional and very welcoming. Will be returning😁

M. H.

Lovely food as always, heartily recommend the chilli chicken ramen noodles and the bang bang cauliflower.

T. M.

Leicester wagamamma have upped their game. Best food and service in one of the chains restaurants for a long time and this particular restaurant has definitely improved. Great work Leicester team!

W. E.

Great food and very friendly staff, loved the open kitchen but it was very noisy because we came on a busy night.

L. S.

Great meal good service just nobody on the door to seat us stood there like idiots just sat ourselves down

P. W.

I asked for a spicy curry and it was. My wife had non spicy and we both happy.

S. S.

Since reopening the quality of the food has dropped. My Teriyaki Soba just want as good as before the shutdown. Prices are just as high though. Shame, maybe things will improve over time

A.

The food here is always good, lots of variety and a lot of seafood and vegetarian options available as they unfortunately don't have halal meat. When we went last time, we booked a table but they made a mistake and they quickly rectified it and still gave us a table quickly enough. The food is slightly overpriced but the portions are very good and tasty.

L. P.

First time here with my favourite friend who has the initials BB and drives a Peugeot. We both really enjoyed it, a relaxed and pleasant atmosphere and the food and service was perfect. To top it off there was a gift of a chocolate dessert on the house which topped off an already fabulous experience. Thank you to all who made it possible, we will be back!

M. C.

Wagamama does great food! Anyone that has been to one knows what they are signing up for but the Leicester store is one of the best we've been too. Great service, always busy which is a good sign for me and a nice experience. Having recently turned Vegan I was excited to try their options. They have their own Vegan menu which is fantastic with plenty of options.

A. W.

Bench seats don't do it for me, they make me feel like I am being rushed. That said. Food is great, quick and I love the way your order arrives at different times and order. That can not honestly be the Japanese way. It's always busy and loud. And always fun.

s. a.

I thoroughly enjoyed the food there, and the service is especially great. I believe that our meals arrived no more than 20 minutes after we had ordered, which was quite fast. It also didn't take us to long to get seated and food was very delicious and filling.

D.

We went on a Saturday lunchtime. It was full of course but we only had a short wait for a table and while we were waiting they gave us complimentary green tea which was a nice touch. The food was delicious, all 5 of us had something different. All the dishes were excellent. The waiting staff were friendly and helpful and cheerful considering how busy they were. The only TINY criticism I have was the long pause between serving the first 2 of our party and the other 3. Otherwise it was a very good experience.

E. D.

Excellent service and delicious food! We had a birthday meal with a friend and I took my 1 year old. They had crayons and a colouring matt out for her, which I thought was very thoughtful. The children's menu is great and she loved tucking into her kiddies katsu! Highly recommend this restaurant for families.

C. x.

Went in today and was extremely happy with the food and the quick service. Was served today by a waiter named Felix who did an amazing job and providing excellent customer service.

J. G.

It's a wagas, it's good. They also manage crowds and groups very well so as to not put off couples and small groups

G. B.

Quick service, good levels of cleanliness, tasty dishes, definitely different type of menu then places serving same sort of cuisine. Bit pricey but not extremely for the size of the dishes. Introducing new menu was definitely good move as previously wasn't standing out. Like in particular their freshly made original juice mixes.

A. D. R.

Loved it. Always amazing food and really good service.

R. H.

Great food as always, service was good even when busy.

J.

It was delicious and the staff was very friendly and polite.

D. S.

Food and drinks were dileverd staggered not one item came together not sure i got the right dish asked for vegan chill squid but I'm pretty sure I got normal squid Even the drinks come at the same time But the staff were frendly

M. I. N.

loved their vegetarian dish. As a first timer i loved the way they set the place as it was warm and welcoming and the service was decent as my food took a little while. But overall, i enjoyed the meal and the time spent there with my friends and i hope to go there soon for another dish such as the ramen.

C. d. l. C.

The only negative point was for the drinks. The beer fron tap was flat, then in bottle was warm... the meal was really nice. I found a bit extrange the way to serve, taking dishes out based on the types instead of all the ones for the 4 of us. Maybe it was because it was a busy night.

V.

Good food, friendly staff, the atmosphere is very nice. Would suggest for a special occasion such as birthday on date, has an interesting and varied menu that lets you try new things. Is on the expensive side but you get what you pay for in quality.

A. M.

Normally love coming here as the service is always lovely I love the ramen. The other foods however I have found to be quite tasteless and bland. I did have a bad encounter with a member of staff who I found to be the AGM. Was very dissapointed as he very stand-offish and rude. Wouldn’t expect that from a member of staff who is an assistant manager. Was promised vouchers by the manager which were never emailed :(

H. P.

We gave our order for our food and what felt like forever, but probably was only 20-25 mins we noticed other tables getting drinks and we still did not get ours, politely reminded them , they then discovered our complete order was missing and didn't go through. Granted we where upset and very hungry , however they where very apologetic and compensated by removing the costs of all the main meals. So we only paid for the drinks , more than happy with the service, we didn't ask or expect that. Was a lovely gesture, will go again.

S. W. M.

The place is well decorated so the restaurante is quite beautiful and provide a welcoming vibe. The varied menu will serve well all types of diets, the food is good and the portions are generous. Fair price. The staff is very helpful, attentive and kind.

A. M.

Its clean, socially distanced, the staff are clearly working hard to keep standards high, the food is on point and they have a great vegan menu! It is one of my favourite spots to eat out.

N. M.

Great place food was lovely and looking forward to going back soon

H. S.

Great food. It was take away service because of covid lock down. The staff were great, everything safe.

C. G.

Every time I feel like having a cosy food I come to wagamama. The ramen is delicious and it has so much variety. Dumplings are also very tasty, and they give you free green tea to have along with the food! Amazing place

A. W.

Nice atmosphere and delicious food especially the firecracker prawn. However, I did not like the fact that they brought out the meals at different times. My meal was very cold by the time my husband got his meal.

X. C. A.

Amazing steak bulgogi!!! It's the only thing I ever order from Wagamama but it's so delicious. The staff are so lovely too, I'm quite picky with my order but they're always happy to make alterations to my food. Such a great atmosphere too.

A. S.

Beautiful atmosphere, lovely warm restaurant too. The food is phenomenal, anyone leaving wagamamas will tell you the food is nothing but high quality (comes out hot). But above all, the best part of the restaurant is the absolutely lovely and warming staff.

G. C.

Fast service. Great tasting meals with a reasonable portion size. The food is served as it is prepared so its always hot/warm. The only issue is that if you are dining in a group everyones meal might not be served at the same time.

T. R.

All hail the delights of Wagamama. We arrived around 6 p.m. We managed to get a table for two. Once we were sat down the restaurant became far busier so we were clearly lucky to avoid queuing for a table. I have the steak soba, as I always do. It was wonderful. As always. We've been to Wagamama in Derby and in Leicester. Both experiences have been very nice. Only downside was, the staff were extremely busy.

S. T.

Very busy for a Sunday evening, not much of a wait for a table. Food as usual delivered fast and hot

K. J.

Delicious ramen! Profesional and nice service! Thanks :)

D. B.

Super restaurant with super food and super Staff Diago looked after us and made it great for me and my son. Thanks again.

C. C. (.

Went for lunch Thursday afternoon with my son (1 year old). Service was amazing!!! BUT extremely disappointed with their portion size. I could not believe the amount of food on my plate.

C. F.

We had a great meal today! Sounds thankful to have found your Vegan options. We are new to this VE food, and have found it tricky around town to eat out. Anyhow, Wagamamas are high on our list when you need Healthy Meat, Dairy free options. We loved the fresh juices too..

A. N.

Perfect.. lovely fresh food.. their desserts were amazing.. not too loud.. a nice place to eat and catch up 😊😊

C. G.

This used to be a pretty good wagamams but I feel that something has changed? The portions are smaller whilst the same price (if not higher with some dishes) and the taste of the food has seemed to have changed too? it's not as flavoursome unfortunately. Which is a shame as the staff are normally really nice and its a nicely decorated place.

N. G. N. g.

Very good range of food, the open plan makes it very accessible for disabled people and the spacious toilets allow convenient use for all

C. S.

Always tasty! A great experience and a sociable atmosphere. Polite and attentive staff, great advice and delicious food! Must try the chilli squid. It's very very tasty!

E. M.

Food is good and their service is really good. Love going here for a meal.

L. P.

Excellent food. The best staff in Leicester , very gentle and friendly. Keep on going like now. Congratulations

K. M.

Amazing as always. Lovely, friendly and informative staff along with divine cuisine and at a good price. Been many times and will continue to visit many more. Definitely recommend.

L. T.

Food was delicious, freshly made. Staff were super friendly and helpful. I had the steak raman ❤👌
