    This is second time going to a wagamamas. Was a bit of a queue outside but worth the wait. It is a fast food restaurant. Wasnt an issue for me but maybe for others that food doesn't come out together it just gets served as and when its cooked, so you may have 2 meals then 1 side and main later All withings a time not like hour later but you may not get food together We enjoyed it was 6 of us and the adjustable table screens is a great idea to adjust seating needs requirements Worth visiting Would go again

    Great experience here the other day. Server was very polite and helpful. Food came out fast, and really nice. The firecracker which wasn't my meal but tried cheeky fork full. That was exceptionally good and will order that next time I go. Very nice open relaxed environment. Everything was clean, got to practice my chopstick skills. Went in hungry, left full and happy

    Attended for a late lunch with a close friend who arrived in the city. Nice and warm setting with an open view of the live city of St.Peters square from your seat. Customer service could be slightly better as we had to wait a while to be sat down. Tried chilli squid for the first time and would recommend it to anyone who plans on going. Very ideal for anyone who are on quick lunch breaks as the food did arrive pretty quickly. Lovely atmosphere and would be visiting again.

    It was one of those visits that just made me HAPPY, put a huge grin on my face and didn't make me feel heavy after the meal😜 The food we tried was light, full of flavour and if you get a chance get the positive juice it will make you feel good😍 the service in this venue is absolutely OUTSTANDING, quick and smooth. The waiter that served us was well informed of all items on the menu, kind and professional My favourite dish that I tried was the hiyashi bowl with teriyaki chicken which is so refreshing and that Asian style white dressing is to die for😍 I obviously also got obligatory katsu chicken and of course it was finger licking good. Big suprise for me was cod mokutan soba which are charcoal noodles with miso-glazed cod. slightly sweet but you can feel the punching fresh ginger coming through making it perfect combo,it has the umami flavour for sure

    I recently tried the Tantanmen beef brisket at Wagamama and unfortunately, it did not meet my expectations. While the dish was decent, it lacked the spice and rich flavor that I was hoping for. I found myself adding additional condiments to enhance the taste, which was a bit disappointing. Additionally, the price of £14.5 for a bowl of ramen felt quite steep, especially given the underwhelming taste. Overall, I would say that the Tantanmen was average but not worth the high price tag.

    Food and service was excellent. Lots of vegan options. Toilets not clean at all. And no hooks to hang up your coat in the toilet? Come on!

  • 5/5 Howard E. 1 year ago on Google
    Excellent food and service. Went for pre Theatre food early evening. 5 minutes walk from Palace Theatre. Was really a busy time, so about 20 mins wait for the table but worth it. Very efficient and friendly staff serving and managing tables at a very busy time. Would recommend.

    Had chicken rama dish....the broth was lukewarm and the soup lacked clearly some spices...better go to a real Ramen shop...

  • 5/5 Ange B. 7 months ago on Google
    I had a wonderful time, food was spot on. We were served by Richard who recommended us some great dishes, his professionalism and friendliness certainly added to the atmosphere so thank you for making it extra special :) Hope to be back in Manchester very soon and will definitely come back to Wagamamas again.

    Nice quick dinner. The food was tasty and flavorful. Charged for water without knowing. Wish they marked the dish I had as very spicy as it was difficult to finish. Not a bad quick place to stop.

    We were visiting Peter’s Square and were looking for a lunch place when we stumbled upon Wagamama. I’ve eaten at one in London and a nice bowl of Ramen seemed perfect on a cold, rainy day. We came in around 1:00 and the restaurant quickly filled up after that. The waitress was very helpful in explaining how we could customize our dishes. We started with the the colada cocktail and the spicy margarita. Both were the perfect size for a tiny lunch cocktail. I had the chicken goyza ramen—so good! The broth was excellent. My husband had the spicy tofu ramen and it was a little too hot for him, but still tasted great. I forgot to get a pic of his! We also shared an Asahi which was cold and a perfect pairing for ramen. We finished with the fried banana dessert. OMG! amazing! This is a great lunch spot and a strong recommend for me.

    One of my favourite coffee places in the Manchester. Really nice atmosphere and chill place. Friendly staff, good quality food and great ramen . Highly recommended.

  • 2/5 Stavros K. 10 months ago on Google
    First and probably last time eating at waga mama. We sat outdoors and the manager of the store took our order. He was polite and professional, but that was it. Food presentation was great. Taste was not bad, but I would expect something better for the price. This is a matter of personal taste of course. What is not a matter of personal taste is cleanliness. Womens toilets were smelly and the condiments basket looked disgusting, you could absolutely tell it had not been cleaned for at least a good couple of days, see pictures. Rest of the staff showed no excitement really, they looked a bit unmotivated. One thing to praise was that the restaurant seemed to be a rather diverse place.

    On arrival we got given the menu as we waited for a table. When we got taken to our table the staff were quick at serving us and were very polite and had good knowledge of the local area as we were visiting.

    Japanese goodies. Fresh from the grill to your plate. The vibes are everything. Staff very friendly and food is so fresh and good. Definitely recommended

    Food is always nice at a wagamamas not a fan of sitting on a bench but that's their choice, green teas free

  • 3/5 Lee T. 2 years ago on Google
    I've eaten here twice now. The katsu curry was quite flavourful, but the yakisoba was extraordinarily bland. The food seems to look better than it tastes.

  • 5/5 Katie J. 1 year ago on Google
    I have been here 3 days running now (no shame) and everyone who works here has been so lovely and welcoming and helpful every day. The food is obviously amazing as Wagas always is! They didn't even mind me being super awkward and taking the chilli heat out of one of the vegan dishes on my last visit (because my chilli tolerance is very poor). I am also a southerner and can confirm and northern people really are nicer, it's not just a myth. Thank you so much team, I've loved it!

    Nice atmosphere, Friendly staff, doesn't take long to get my order, I like the spices and the amount of food. Juices menu has few choices, but they look fresh and healthy. Recommend it

  • 5/5 Phil J. 2 years ago on Google
    Great place to eat, nice and relaxed atmosphere. Friendly staff, great prices and just a nice buzz. They do lots of noodle dishes, selection of beers to choose from and one type of cider, also serve wine and non alcohol drinks. I pretty much have been to a different wagamamas throughout the country and everyone is consistently good. Always look forward to eating there or getting home delivery.

👍👍 I was craving curry during my stay in Manchester. And Google suggested this place to me. It's in the centre, almost 6 minutes away from my hotel. The interior design is very hip and it has a great vibe. The music that is being played is modern. The curry was amazing. And the prices were perfect for...
