Waiter had an appalling attitude, rude throughout, there was a piece of chicken bone in my meal. Food was poor to say the least.

Since I am from eastern Europe I may say that service in America is not good at all. But in this place it's upper than average. It still has nothing to do with japanese cuisine and service (I lived there 3 years). Ramen even not close to japanese Ramen flavor, carry isn't like there. Although food is good and tasty. Staff is kind. Place is good. Prices are affordable.

Chicken Gyozas and the steak noodles was incredible!

We had a fun and flavorful meal at Wagamama! Tried a variety of dishes — some hits, some misses. The pad Thai was okay, but definitely not like the one you’d get in Thailand — milder and less bold in flavor. The duck ramen, on the other hand, was rich, a bit fatty in the best way, and absolutely satisfying.

The chicken salad was light and fresh, a good balance to the heartier dishes. Their famous bang bang cauliflower came with high expectations, but it was just okay — crispy but the sauce didn’t quite wow us.

We also had two bao buns: one vegetarian and one with chicken. Both were great — soft, fluffy buns with flavorful fillings. The chicken one especially stood out, with tender meat and a nice crunchy contrast.

Fresh-pressed juices were a highlight — especially the positive one, super refreshing and energizing. And the teas! One with lemongrass, the other with mint — both fragrant and calming.

A nice spot for a casual meal with a twist, especially if you’re in the mood for variety and fresh drinks.

I used to love this place but my last few times dining in or ordering out, something has been off.
My favorite meal there was the chicken katsu curry but it started to have a strong salt taste.
I tried the ginger chicken udon today and it seemed bland.
No one came to check to see how the meal was, and I had to wait for quite awhile to get the bill to pay.
It was not busy in there, just service was slow.
On my recent visit I spent $46 (including tax and tip) and it’s just not worth it. I hope things improve here because I really loved this restaurant.

Love the interior of the restaurant and the outdoor seating has a nice vibe as well. I'm obsessed with the chicken pad thai—the best I've ever had! Their teas are flavorful and the fresh juices leave you feeling well and energized. Great options for kids as well, real good meals instead of silly chicken nuggets that many other places offer.

Good location, good interior and mood, bad service. We asked for “ice water” and the server brought us tap water. We then thought we might have to pay extra for ice water which we didn’t mind. But then we saw that same server giving ice water to another table. When our friend got the receipt to pay, the server just put down the tap machine on table so our friend had to scan it by themselves. Honestly felt like racism. It shouldn’t take 30 min to bring water to our table. Food was okay. Too pricey for the service.

The food was definitely not anything to write home about. There is better ramen out there for sure. The space was nice. What was really bad was the service. We ordered only waters and those didn’t come out until after our appetizer. We were left without plates for our edamame, our food came out sporadically, and it took forever to pay. I don’t recommend.

This chain has a great ambiance, BUT its attempt to deliver tasty ramen noodles failed. The ramen soup must be hearty and tasty. Not here. I'm glad I stopped in to try. Now, I will go back to my old haunt. Happy dining.

I absolutely recommend wagamama! My boyfriend and I have been here many times and the food is always delicious. I recommend the tuna tataki, bao buns, chicken ramen and ginger chicken udon.

Horrible food, awful service. Burnt Pad thai, bland ramen. No wondering this place looks abandoned with servers walking around indifferently hating their jobs. One server brought to us ice cream first before the main dish lol. Wagamama management, educate and train your stuff. Anyways, never coming back!
