What an amazing time we had. A special poignant lunch with my brother which was made even better by the lovely team here. Special thanks to the amazing manager Maria- thank you maria, you made our day! I can recommend the new chicken and prawn rice bowl and the yaki soba was “tasty” according to my understated brother. We’ll come again. The strawberry matcha was also 👌👌 THHANNKKK YYYOOOUUUUUUU 😍😍😍
Good food, quick service and reasonable prices, especially for London. We were seated quickly, and the staff were friendly and efficient. The food arrived promptly and was a good standard. It was quite loud inside, which made conversation a little difficult, but overall a good experience. A solid choice for a reasonably priced meal in a busy South Bank location.
Stopped here for dinner on a Monday evening. Fabulous food and service as always. Food is always cooked fresh and to order. I had the Korean Barbeque brisket bao and saku saku duck soba and it was delicious. The rating for atmosphere was brought down because the background music was quite loud and intrusive.
We recently visited Wagamama — and it was absolutely amazing! 🔥 From the very first minutes, you can feel the cozy atmosphere combined with a modern Asian vibe. The service is top-notch: the staff are incredibly attentive, friendly, and always happy to help with recommendations. The food deserves special praise! Everything was unbelievably fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The ramen was simply perfect — rich broth, tender meat, and perfectly cooked noodles. The appetizers and desserts were just as impressive — every flavor carefully balanced and thoughtfully prepared. The portions are generous, the quality of ingredients is excellent, and the prices fully match the high standard. You can truly see that the team cares about both their guests and their cuisine. We will definitely be coming back and highly recommend it to everyone! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Today was the third time I've been to this particular branch and it didn't disappoint. It was a birthday lunch for my sister and the food and drinks were exemplary. The manager, Iliyan, was courteous and attentive and made our visit relaxed and enjoyable as did the rest of his staff. I'll definitely be returning!
