    Went there for lunch and was on a time crunch, got sat right away and ordered within minutes. Started off with the Bao. Then our entrees arrived. I ordered the Pad Thai, while my partner got the Chicken Ramen. In and out with a 1/2 hour. Very efficient and friendly service. Thank you.

    This is inside Prudential Building. It’s not difficult to find. Service people were very courteous. The food we ordered taste very good. The ramen is a bit too greasy for my taste, however. The presentation was good. Unfortunately, we had to eat soup noodles with forks because the ran out of chopsticks.

    Excellent! We tried the cool ramen which didn’t have normal ramen noodles but was still quite tasty. And we had the green power up juice that was delicious. It has spinach, ginger and something else. We also had the vegan ramen with udon noodles that was really healthy tasting.

    Came here with a group of friends for dinner. We had a large party of 13 and they were able to help seat us pretty fast. The staff was really friendly and helpful. The food came decently fast and was really delicious! The atmosphere was really nice and the tables were very spacious. I will definitely be coming here again more often.

    Great location to eat at while you’re in the middle of shopping in Prudential Center! Service is quick with refilling cups and the kitchen pushes out food really quickly. The Katsu Curry is a tasty go to dish and their appetizers are great as well. My favorites are the Bang Bang Cauliflower, Chili Calamari, and the Pork and Apple Bao Bun!

    Quite a lovely place to have any and all sorts of interactions, from a first date to a business meeting, from a family dinner to dinner with friends or just by yourself. The food itself will warm your soul and the staff a pleasant experience to be around. Absolutely love the chocolate layer cake and their Beef bulgogi paired with their spicy margarita, their fried calamari and duck lettuce wraps are also ridiculously good . I'm literally salivating typing this. Try it out! The staff is quite lovely too!

    The ramen was decent enough although it honestly didn't look like a ramen (but I'm not a ramen master so maybe I shouldn't judge). What I like the most was the pork, it was very delicious and juicy. The clam was pretty good too. Also, I ate alone and the waiter was very nice and kind! He offered to fill my tea with hot water many times (which I like a lot)

    Had the brisket ramen bowl ; pretty good and filling ; could use more broth! Very tasty with the cilantro coming through . I did notice it was a little salty but that could have been from the brisket .

    Loyal customer for 2 years at least, I think. FOODS Grill duck ramen, very flavorful, broth is just right. Having some good kimchi. I come to eat this 😋 Chili chicken ramen, I did not have high expectation but it turned out like a champion. Broth with some lime is so balance. Chicken is tender. 💯 DRINKS Balance ( non alcohol), tasted great Yuzu cocktail 10/10 Customer service is ok Price is not bad for the quality. Cleaned tables and seats.

    The food was delicious, the staff was nice, and one thing I really loved is that they bring out your food right as it's made. This is so nice because then you don't have the awkward thing at restaurants where everyone's good arrives and some people have cold plates. Highly recommend!

    I really enjoy the vibe of this restaurant, good location (not in the food court(s)) almost give me vibes of a anime lovers, especially with the artwork. Food is OK although love the variety it offers. Have to go back to try the various noodles and unique items. The atmosphere is chill, ideal for hangouts, like would take my nieces and nephew here.

    I have not been to this Wagamama for a long time. Food tasted so much better now then when the restaurant first started out. Their Southeast Asian fusion food is getting better. I will come again. Perfect place for a break after shopping.

    I ordered the chicken katsu curry and duck wings. The duck wings 🍗 were really tender, cripsy and flavorful. HOWEVER, the chicken katsu curry 🍛 was pretty average and was too sweet for my liking.

    Wagamama is one of my go to sit in restaurants on Huntington. They have a solid menu with a variety of options for everyone. The ramen is excellent, but the portion size may leave some wanting more as it’s not as large as other ramen places. The desserts are not worth it in my opinion and you’d be better off going to Eataly next door for those! All in all, great place to have some authentic Asian cuisine at a reasonable price without having to wait long for a table!

    The food was amazing we got so full but still ordered desert. The Hispanic waiter we got was very kind and attentive. Prices are fair for the food. A must go eat place.

    As always, great food ! We love the baos. But this time our experience was enhanced by the exceptional service of Valentina! Thx you so much ! You are awesome.

    One of the best ramen I had in Boston so far. It’s was very flavorful and unique. I got the duck ramen. The service was alright. It took them extremely long to place my order. The place looked very great but the seating wasn’t the best they could’ve done. We were trying to sit down but the line and wait time was long. It seemed like they had so much seating available. I wouldn’t know much, but from the looks of it, they had over half the seats empty but couldn’t sit people down.

    Wagamama inside the prudential center. Service was great, very respectful and helpful as well as speedy service with quality food. They have lucky buddha beer here which is a great lager style that tastes very light and delicious. Recommendations: drink: lucky buddha beer; apps: dumplings; main course: chili chicken ramen bowl

    They have new menu, new staff and new recipe with plastic in it! I have been going to Wagamama since past 4 years. I go there almost every month, but now I have no choice but to avoid going to this place. I was seated on the booth near the kitchen. It was so loud, I couldn’t talk to the person I came to have dinner with because the loud noise: from the kitchen, the other customers, the song being played so loudly. I ordered my usual: Kare Burosu. There was a piece of plastic in my food. I couldn’t eat it after that. When I called the waitress, she took my bowl and came back saying I will not charge you for it. But I was not yet full, and did not want to eat anything else after such an experience. I have loved this ramen all this time, but I cannot take a chance, what if I had eaten that plastic? NEVER GOING THERE AGAIN.

    Has a wide range of pretty average Asian food. The ramen was pretty disappointing. Salads, rice and noodle dishes were better. Gyoza was decent too. Great place if you want lots of options.

  • 5/5 Derick C. 2 years ago on Google
    This place is inside Prudential center shopping mall on the second level. There are street parking also garage parking for a whooping $32 (I might be wrong, please check). This restaurant is little upscale and it’s esthetic is really good. The servers are really sweet. So had sweet sake. Just kidding. Had chili chicken ramen. Edamame, pork dumplings

    Visited this place for a meeting and had two meals, both lunch. We tried pork, duck ramen, and bulgogi steak noodles. All were awesome. Service is great too, super quick. Nice staffs. Highly recommended!

    A Flavorful Feast at Wagamama Boylston Street Boston Recently, my friends and I had the pleasure of dining at Wagamama on Boylston Street in Boston, and we were treated to a truly delightful culinary experience. As soon as we entered the restaurant, we were greeted by a vibrant and energetic ambiance. The modern decor and open kitchen concept created an inviting atmosphere that immediately caught our attention. The staff members were friendly, attentive, and guided us through the menu with great expertise. We decided to try a variety of dishes to get a taste of Wagamama's offerings. We ordered two grilled chicken ramen bowls, one vegetable ramen, bang-bang cauliflower, and two immunity booster drinks. The grilled chicken ramen bowls were a highlight of our meal. The broth was rich and flavorful, perfectly complementing the tender grilled chicken. The noodles had a satisfying texture, and the accompanying vegetables added freshness and depth to the dish. It was a comforting and satisfying bowl of ramen that left us craving for more. The vegetable ramen was equally impressive. The broth was aromatic and packed with umami flavors, while the assortment of fresh vegetables provided a delightful crunch and vibrant colors. It was a wholesome and nourishing option that catered to our vegetarian friend's preferences. The bang-bang cauliflower was a true showstopper. The cauliflower florets were crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, and generously coated with a tangy and slightly spicy sauce. It was a unique and delicious twist on a classic vegetable dish that left us wanting another serving. To boost our immune systems, we ordered the immunity booster drinks. These refreshing beverages were a combination of invigorating fruits and natural ingredients, providing a refreshing and revitalizing experience. It was the perfect accompaniment to our meal, adding a healthy touch to our dining experience. Overall, our experience at Wagamama Boylston Street Boston was exceptional. The food was flavorful, expertly prepared, and beautifully presented. The attentive service and vibrant atmosphere added to the overall enjoyment of our dining experience. If you're in Boston and craving a taste of Japanese-inspired cuisine, Wagamama is a must-visit. Whether you're in the mood for delicious ramen, innovative vegetarian options, or unique small plates, Wagamama offers a diverse menu that caters to all palates. We left the restaurant with satisfied taste buds and a desire to return for more flavorful adventures.

    I have been coming to Wagamama Prudential since 2015. The food is always great and the chefs work hard to get the food out fast. This time I had an awesome experience with the manager Fran ,she came to our table to check on us multiple times. Servers were focused despite how busy it was on a rainy Saturday night .

    Please don’t call yourself a ramen restaurant. It’s horrible!! Taste like Taco on steroid, greasy fried ground pork in a can chicken broth with bunch of cilantro, overpriced! $19 for this bad boy
