We have visited here for years however haven’t been for a few months but only because we tried other places. In the past it would defo a 4 maybe even a 5 at times. 1st off the service is spot on! Nothing wrong with the colleagues. The one time we had issues the colleague and manager were great, all sorted. The short benches however are useless if you’re over 6’6’ which I am, and this is due to the seat being nailed into the floor it means an uncomfortable seat in a busy restaurant. Onto the food, so the absolutely winning Katsu chicken curry is now simply not worth the money, you get a sliver of chicken, a load of rice and hardly any sauce, Gyozas….. £7+…. Wow! Grilled Duck Donburi £18!!!! Look the food is nice but wayyyy overpriced now most dishes are around 20% more than the last menu and even those prices were more to the expensive side of the market. The price hikes are not down to the colleagues in stores and as I’ve said, they generally are very good, The rating is based on value for money which it’s now probably a 1/5 and gets the extra 2 points for the service. Wagamama used to be a “GO TO” for us but you can simply get better for less elsewhere now.

Will never return! As waiting for food seen one of the male waiter rubbing his nose then his thumb going up it and yes he was the one serving food to tables felt sick I didn’t want my food! Good job the other male waiter brought my food to my table or I wouldn’t have eating it. Hubby said he’s dish was nice but my pad Thai was horrible no flavour and chicken was dry as sticks!

A consistent restaurant. We joined a large queue which was cleared in about fifteen minutes. The team were very friendly and the food was mostly enjoyable. The vegan sticky ribs weren’t for us (personal taste) and the edamame seemed to be missing the salt. The pad Thai I had however was wonderful as was the mushroom bao. The chefs made a tweaked version of the menu to accommodate dietary preferences which was appreciated. Drinks arrived after the food but the team explained that was because they were training.

Yet another restaurant chain that is hyped up as amazing. Sorry but food bland and overpriced. I had chicken and king prawn noodle dish. 3 prawns in the dish. A japanese food equivalant of Macdonalds. Tasteless over priced rubbish.

When I was younger my parents would never have dreamed of taking me to an Asian style restaurant, purely down to the presence of allergens in the kitchens and the amount of dishes which contained tree/ peanuts. However, Wagamama has made this a possibility with arguably the best allergen menu of a “high street” restaurant chain. The menu itself is incredibly easily to use, due to the fact it filters the menu to show you dishes which don’t contain your selected allergen. This in itself gives a person with an allergy a real sense of safety, that is furthered when told you’ve been allocated a manager and a member of waiting staff purely for your table. Once I’d ordered my food, the manager informed us that our food would take a little longer to arrive due to the allergen requirements, but that it would not be a long wait. When the food arrived it was superb quality and very well presented. So this is the first time I’ve ever been to an Asian style restaurant with my Dad, which for some will be a normal occurrence, but to me this is a memory that will last a long long time.

My boyfriend and I were met by Chris and from the moment he acknowledged our arrival he was brilliantly delightful. He was terribly helpful on advising us on what to order and once the food came, Chris who is clearly passionate and good at his job could sense I wasn’t happy and instantly stepped in, changed my dish and totally lifted my mood. I can honestly say that my return to venue will not be just for the food, but the amazing warmth and service that Chris and the other staff members offered. Working in this industry I do hope that who ever reads this from Wagamama can recognise the importance of staff like Chris as they really are few and far between. I would love to think that he can be thanked at a higher level. Thank you.

Management should hang their heads in shame. 65 minutes in a queue to get in. Grossly understaffed to the point where the restaurant shouldn’t be open at all. Corporate greed at its finest. And top it all the entire top floor is empty as there aren’t enough staff to man that either. Food was very slow to arrive and tepid at best. An utter disappointment that we will absolutely never repeat.

Took my family for Ramen I ordered Tantanmen beef Ramen, my son ordered kids chicken ramen. Tantanmen is meant to be numbingly spicy with chilli and schechuan pepper in a creamy broth. Both dishes came with the same broth which was neither chicken for my sons dish nor creamy for mine, it looked and tasted like dishwater that had some ginger in it - truly awful, mine with about a tablespoon of shredded dry beef! Real shame they just try and pass off anything as authentic dishes it’s quite appalling. Do not waste your money here, if you want authentic go to Chillis in town.

We visited Wagamama after an issue the last time we got a take out (which was through no fault of Wagamama). We were told to mention the previous issue and did so, the staff were all so polite and helpful and didn’t make us feel uncomfortable at all for mentioning it. After speaking to the staff, the waitress came back over to say they were going to give an extra goodwill gesture as a result. I explained that this wasn’t necessary however they insisted. This was a lovely thing to do, which they didn’t have to and made our day. The little things like this make a big difference and is what brings people back to the restaurant. Not only was the service 10/10 from all staff and the manager on shift, the food was the best we have had at Wagamama. We got a spicy chicken ramen, firecracker chicken, edamames and pulled pork gyozas. It was a lovely end to our weekend and we will be back very soon. Highly recommend. Thank you Wagamama!

Waited 10 minutes just for a drink, then ordered a spicy and normal Katsu curry. My curry arrived straight away, my boyfriends took 20 minutes by the time I had finished his had came. They also gave him the spicy one which was too hot for him so he couldn’t even eat it. Food itself was lovely but service was not good, no one even asked how the food was.

Once you've visited one Wagamama restaurant, you've visited them all. This branch has one difference though - the service. The staff here are excellent. The restaurant has been kitted out to meet all Covid restrictions and the staff are always there ready to help, even with the tiniest request. Can't fault them. The legendary Chicken Katsu Curry is my recommendation. Food is always nice. I enjoyed having the ability to pay through an online platform, would be great if we could order through it too.

Ate here Sat. 31st Oct. Greeter told us wait time, which was fine, 20mins, I asked for a chair, not a bench, as I have back problems. The designated booth we were shown to, had been cleaned to within an inch of its life!! The young lady cleaned, the seats, the very nice screens, the table top and even the edges and underside... Incredible and applaudable! The food and service were of the expected very high quality, but it was the level of attention given to the cleaning that blew us away. In the current climate it was so reassuring I just wish I'd have got the names of those specific members of staff, but perhaps you could trace via shift rotas and reward accordingly. As key workers, we can't thank you enough, and for the food..

The food is delicious at Wagamamas, it really is, but incase you didn't already know, they bring the dishes out at different times. So as soon as the dish is cooked, they will bring it out. When I visited on Friday, I got my main course about 10 minutes before my starter. That being said, both courses tasted absolutely gorgeous as usual catered for my friend and her allergies, and even brought her out a sample of hot sauce! The waiter was a lovely and polite gentleman who made the experience very pleasant. Definitely recommend, although the queue to get in was quite long!

Earlier this year our eldest son was put on a very restrictive diet due to a range of food intolerances - this was our first meal out in 7 months . When we requested to see the gluten free menu we were told that we would be looked after by a certain member of staff (the manager I think). The gluten free food was cooked in a separate part of the kitchen, he took a list of all of the restrictions to our son's diet and ensured that substitutions were made to lots of elements of the dish so he was able to eat it. The food was excellent, even though the restaurant was busy due to the eat out to help out scheme, they couldn't do enough to ensure we all had an enjoyable meal. I reiterate what others have said with regards to feeling covid safe, there are partitions on the tables, visors worn by staff and the cleaning of the tables and chairs looked very thorough.

We came on a monday night as part of the eat out to help out scheme. We had to queue to get in which was expected but the queue went down quite quickly. All the staff had visors which made us feel safer and there is social distancing in place. AS we were given a pocket size menu in the queue, we knew what we wanted and were told it was cashless which was fine was us. We paid on the internet which was great so we didn't need to wait for the waitress. We both got the chicken katsu curry and the portion size was great. Food was cooked to order and could tell it was cooked freshly too

I was there for my 18th birthday, but had brought no ID with me as I only have my passport and would rather not bring it out of the house. I was asked for ID to verify my age, and explained I had none but was there for my 18th birthday. Both my father and grandmother were there to vouch for me but I was refused. Even when I showed a photo of my passport to them, they refused again and became quite off with me. Took all the fun out of it and put a downer on my 18th birthday. thanks wagamama.

We came here as a treat for our 3 year old daughter (and 1 year old son but he was indifferent to where we went). Absolutely delighted with how amazing the staff were with the children, my daughter was taken care of from the moment we stepped foot into the place. Staff were attentive and extremely patient as we moved the buggy to our table. The children's menu was a little more pricey than most places we go to however the quality and size was awesome. For the rest of us food was great and service for the most was super. My only criticism was that we had to wait a long time to get our change and seemed to be forgotten once we paid our bill, which is a shame as I was going to give 5 stars.

This was my first visit to Wagamamas I have steak teriyaki my friends had chicken teriyaki and ramen we had sides of duck pancakes and bang bang cauliflower. The flavours were bland my steak was left because the quality seemed poor i actually double checked the menu to check what cut of meat it was and was shocked to find out it was sirloin. The duck was luke warm microwaved packet meat both of us didn't eat it. I was disappointed as we all had been dying to try it the service was great but that was the only highlight maybe it was because it was a saturday and they were a little bit busy but i wouldn't risk trying it again just in case it is the same. Such a shame dont understand the fascination. On the plus side my bangbang cauliflower was full of flavour and sadly the nicest part of my meal.

The dishes available in Wagamama really stay true to the cuisine they advertise which creates a delicious menu with a good range, including authentic drinks to go along with the meals that are very much worth a try! I ordered a teriyaki chicken dish and a side of duck dumplings was shared and they were like nothing I’ve had before! The staff were also very attentive and kind and the only complaint I would really have would be that the location of the Metrocentre Wagamama means you could be sat on the outside of the restaurant with every passer by looking in and deciding wether or not they want what you have, which is understandably good marketing, but makes the atmosphere less enjoyable.

But it always seems that we get Piotrek (Peter) cooking our food every time, or at least the allergy dishes, his food is exceptional, it doesn't matter if it is busy or quiet, his standards never drop and he is always smiling and shows the kids that look in how he's cooking the food and flaming his pan. A true credit to this restaurant and I don't believe chefs always get the praise they deserve

We visit on a regular basis travelling 35 miles to the restaurant, the service is always excellent, the staff have always been friendly and seem very happy in their job. The food is always perfect, cooked to perfection, very hot and very well presented. The restaurant is always spotless. This staff and restaurant are a credit to the company.

Ok, what do I mean by problems. Well we walked in and they told us straight away that they were having boiler problems so some dishes would be slow and a dish was not available. Fair enough these things happen. So seated and order taken. Drinks arrived with usual Wagamama efficiency. Dishes started to arrive and then we were told the ordering system had gone down so they were trying to sort orders. Some dishes had come up but sent back so there would b a bit of a wait to get them sorted. James F, our server, looked after us well, bringing us a spare dish because they had sent it up in error! All dishes arrived and the manager told us he would knock of a main and a starter for the problems; happy days! We were kept informed right throughout and well looked after!

Service is always SO quick and efficient and the food is really good. The lollipop prawns and chilli squid starters are lovely and my go to main is the chicken katsu curry but there are also definitely lots of other dishes on the menu worth trying.

I wanted to send highlight some positive feedback following a trip my wife, son and I had to the Gateshead Metrocentre Wagamama restaurant on the early afternoon of Thursday 14th December 2017.

We love this restaurant as everything you order is cooked fresh in view of the diners. The food didn’t come to the table all at once. It comes in order of what has cooked first so you get it fresh and hot. The food is very Japanese / Thai themed with spices prawns noodles chicken broths and rice. Their drinks are fruit or vegetable smoothies again freshly made. Ideal restaurant for all ages. My 9 year old eats the Firecracker which is extremely spicy hot.

We can’t seem to get enough of this place! We love it’s fresh food and it’s authentic taste! Our 5 year old daughter is a Wagamama addict! :) She would choose Wagamama over any other restaurant around including the big McDs and BK!

I must say the cuisine and choices available on the menu were very poor to put it mildly.

Alex was a great help with my vegan friend and my other friend who had never been before. Recommended dishes which were excellent and it was a pleasure to be served by her.

Was reluctant to go here for a long time due to simply not liking the idea of the food on offer. Once the other half persuaded me to go I realised how wrong I had been to not try this earlier. The food tastes top quality and is all cooked fresh and the service provided by the staff is brilliant too. Extra care and attention paid to allergy requirements too. Definitely try the shredded duck starter! (Have been back twice now in space of a month)

We went out for a family meal to celebrate my sons birthday and the food and service was fantastic. My daughter is a picky eater but really loved the food, especially the chicken sides. We had a rice meal, noodle meal and soup and all were fantastic.To top it off the waitress brought over a couple of cakes to celebrate my some birthday; the chocolate was good but the cheese was out of this world (and I don't have a sweet tooth).

Popped in here for lunch after traipsing around shopping for what seemed like days! Service and food as always excellent, particularly service waitress was really superb and knew her stuff, we've eaten here before and others in the chain so wasn't surprised as many seem to be when the food arrives at different times, good value and food was delicious as always.

First time visitors, not greatly impressed. We travel extensively and this was just bog standard dried out fast food. Staff were really lovely though. I sorted through the table cutlery as to which ones were clean and dirty...it gave me something to do whilst we waited 20 minutes to give our order. Box ticked, no need to return.

Hubby and I have eaten here many times. We have always been very happy, both with the excellent service and the great food. I am a fussy eater and I don’t eat meat. Consequently, I often ask for fish to be substituted for meat in a dish and sometimes for other changes. On our recent visit, I wanted to substitute tuna for chicken (I was happy to pay the difference, I know tuna is expensive) and brown rice for quinoa. The staff here are always genuinely happy to oblige.
