Wagamama - Camden in Camden

The best food have tasted in My life everything was at perfection the meats Are super tender and good this restaurant is so far the best one so far and the food came so fast like 5 min. And cant forget the service it was amazing super frendly people and super good service

Amazing as always! Our server Kauan was lovely too looked after us the whole time thank you:)

Staff really crappy and incompetent. impudence

Told the waiter twice to add a meal but the meal didn't come

Creepy manager saying weird stuff to me and asking for my snapchat made me so uncomfortable

Wagamama in Camden offers a contemporary take on Japanese cuisine in a bustling and trendy area of London. Known for its communal dining style and freshly prepared dishes, this Wagamama location promises a vibrant atmosphere. However, my recent visit highlighted several areas for improvement that detracted from the overall dining experience. The service at this Wagamama was notably lacking. Despite the restaurant's reputation for efficient and friendly service, our experience was quite the opposite. The staff seemed overwhelmed, and our orders were taken with noticeable delays. When the green tea arrived, it was served in a strangely dirty cup, which was off-putting and raised concerns about cleanliness standards. The interior of the restaurant was very hot, making it uncomfortable to enjoy our meal. Given the high foot traffic in Camden, it’s understandable that the restaurant gets busy, but proper ventilation or air conditioning would greatly improve the dining experience, especially on warmer days. Additionally, the bench seating was not comfortable, contributing to the overall sense of discomfort during our visit. Despite these issues, the food quality was consistent with what you would expect from Wagamama. The menu offers a wide variety of dishes, from ramen and donburi to teppanyaki and katsu curry. Each dish is prepared with fresh ingredients and presented beautifully. The Chicken Katsu Curry, a staple at Wagamama, was flavorful and satisfying. The vegetarian options, such as the Yasai Yaki Soba, were also well-received for their taste and portion size. Wagamama was founded in 1992 in London and has since become a global brand known for its minimalist decor and emphasis on communal dining. The Camden location reflects the brand’s philosophy but unfortunately falls short in terms of service and comfort. In conclusion, while Wagamama in Camden maintains the chain's standard for good food, the poor service, uncomfortable seating, and lack of proper ventilation significantly impacted our visit. Improvements in these areas would greatly enhance the overall dining experience.

Great food, consistent, always worth a visit

A French waiter Garry was able to explain to us the subtleties of Asian cuisine

Gary is the absolute sweetest, pro active, and on top of it manager for any place we’ve visited in London including all the fine dining restaurants we’ve been too. We adore him and I hope he has a wonderful life genuinely

We were a party of two and ordered two mains and one starter. First, they brought us one main dish. Five minutes later, we had to remind them about the second main and the starter. They then brought out the starter, and finally, after another 10 minutes, we received the second main dish. Despite the friendly staff, the service was poor. The team needs training on proper serving etiquette: the starter should be served first, followed by both mains together, not 10 minutes apart. Additionally, I found it unprofessional that they wrote the order number on our table, where we needed to place our plates. For the prices they charge, they should offer a more creative and refined dining experience. We won’t be returning.

I’ve been to many Wagamama but this was my first time in the Camden branch. I was very pleased. My Yaki Udon was fab and the portion was big (as you can tell from the photo). The food took a tiny bit longer to be served but it was fairly busy so no problem there. I would also like to thank Louis our waiter who took great care of us. He made sure we had everything we need and when I asked for his suggestion on the appetisers he was more than happy to help me choose. Great job Louis and thank you!

Great dinner together with my children. A special thank you to Sandy who took so great care of us. Would definitely come back again!

Great dinner together with my children. Thank you Sandy for taking so good care of us, we would definitely come back again!

We had a really lovely night out here with good friends. The service was great - shout out to Gary who let me know about the gluten free menu - bless! Our food was delicious and staff were friendly and helpful. Would recommend. Thanks for helping make our night more memorable.

Amazing vegan options, with the goal.to reduce their carbon emmissions. Everything is 👌🏼

Burnt, missing items from delivery and one piece of butternut squash in a new vegetarian dish in a curry so hot that it would strip paint of the wall. Plainly a dreadful incompetent chef who doesn’t taste his food and plainly doesn’t care about his job. Pity, they used to be good but I’d steer well clear if you want to eat safely and get what you paid for!

Place with interesting design. The service was fast and very friendly. Buns so tasty! Lemonade really great. Vegatsu didn’t look good and it was just tasteless… I see no point to serve green tea when you can’t separate leaves. After few minutes the tea was so strong that I couldn’t drink it any more.

This place is a letdown, me and my friend decided to come here since we love wagamamas and first of all, the waiters seemed very moody and didn’t feel like they really cared about their job. Moving onto the food, we had our food before drinks and waited another 10 mins before we actually got our drinks, it doesn’t take that long to make them!! Before ordering, my friend specified that she has a nut and dairy allergy, and our server seemed very annoyed, but it’s obviously not her fault she has an allergy!! My friend ordered the teriyaki soba noodles and duck gyozas, and i ordered the katsu curry with chicken gyozas, our mains came, and my gyozas came, and then my friends gyozas took an extra 40 minutes to come!!! I think this is disgraceful as we already ate our mains before the gyozas and we’re already full by then so they wasted their time and money from the ingredients to make them. Also the food was quite salty too! Overall I think this is disappointing from someone who loves wagamamas. Never coming back

Terrible service. Slow and unfriendly despite being empty.

The Ramen was good! The staff super nice. I Recommend it!

Good food, friendly service; would have appreciated a bit more space for my wheelchair using friend to sit in her chair while eating.

Delicious teriyaki! Friendly staff and good gluten-free options for one of the traveling companions. Recommended! Also a great way to escape the hustle and bustle of Camden Market.

Very large inn-type tables. The right food and the affordable price to be candem

First time going to this wagamama when we first went in we was seated straight away and served quickly but when it came to paying the server didn't return with our change we was going to leave a tip anyway.

got the tofu hot pot as takeaway -two tteokbokki and a less than half full bowl. no butternut squash at all. not sure how that's a main meal. had to go somewhere else and get more food; I'm diabetic & there weren't enough carbs in the meal to even count as a snack. especially annoying because I normally quite like wagamamas. don't get takeaway from the camden branch I guess

Great service. Especially from Jake.

the best wags i have ever had. the service was immaculate, the ramen was the best, they even cut it up so it’s easier to eat. came here on the 12th of april and i could not fault it one bit!!!! definitely come here if you’re wanting a chill place to eat at.

We popped in here while shopping around Camden. We wanted to see what this popular chain was all about. Our 3 teens really loved the food! The adults too. We tried all sorts of things on the menu and were please with all. They even had green drinks! Service was friendly too. Definitely check it out for a casual bite.

Really poor service - seated out of the way and forgotten about by the servers. Ten minutes to come and take an order when I was on my own. One of my items did not turn up and so i asked for this to be taken off the bill which it was but at that point the server became totally disengaged, brought the bill, took payment without a gratuity and walked off.

Service was terrible. All orders were wrong and everything came out backwards.

What a great Wagamama restaurant in the heart of Camden, food is Outstanding, but not as good as the waiter Adam, super quick polite and professional five stars for him!

I have been eating is this Wagamas for 15+ years, and whilst the food remains good. Sadly the quality of the service has significantly declined.

It is a good option for a chicken katsu curry if you are around Camden area and want to try some Japanese food

I happened to enter this restaurant Wagamama in Camden Town and enjoyed every bite I had I really wanted to enjoy some drinks but was not in a mood but Adam was a great host who made my day with his politeness and service , I recommend my friends and family to visit this place specially to be served by Adam thanks bro

Walked in to place a take away order. Sat around like an absolute idiot only to be handed lukewarm food because they didn’t bother to hand it to me until I asked when it was going to be ready. I hadn’t moved. I brought this to the manager’s attention and he shrugged his shoulders saying “oh, sorry, I didn’t know you were there”.

It was lovely just incredibly expensive for the size of the portions

Had a great experience dining here, Jake was very helpful and friendly. Happy to return.

Was served in combination by Becky, Jaz, and Fernanda. All were VERY accommodating, kind, and welcoming. The service was quick, and the food was delicious! Great recommendations on what to order from the staff, and they were correct on each item. Also, loved the mocktail options, specifically the no-jito. Will definitely be coming back!

The food was great, but the best part of my experience was Jazz's hospitality!

A really great welcome for our first time in a wagamama! The kids loved it and so did I. A big thank you to Louise for her welcome and her wise advice.

Always great food. Service rather slow on this occasion and the waitress was unfriendly, however that's not usually the case.

They treated us terribly, the rude waiter came to the table and didn't even look at our faces. Talking to us with contempt and indifference, so much so that we got up from the table and left the place. At least I will never return to that location again.

OK food. Had the sausages this time. Note to self, always go with the soup or noodles, because they do that good.

Delicious! Pad Thai was excellent, and ramen always a winner.

Although the branch was understaffed and one of our main meal dishes was forgotten, the staff really did go above and beyond Special thank you to Louis and Jake excellent customer services!

Good vegan ramen and excellent service, really nice and fast!

Cauan ria & Becky were legends! We’ll be back. Great service x

Amazing food ,and amazing staff. We've been served by kauan and rhea ,been checked by Becky.. they were so lovely and attentive, definitely well come back!!!!

Worst experience at Wagamama anywhere. Messed up our order, then added the mess up to the bill and when asked to correct, did not on the 1st occasion. Had to then fill out a refund form. Worst part, is when we were complaining about the service the server / manager accused of us of shouting. Will never go there again. Food was good, but my Firecracker chicken did not have much sauce. Overall, Bad experience with both the service and food.

I was there last night but it was very busy and I was feeling unwell with a headache so we decided to leave without ordering. However, I left my phone on the table and the staff saw it and kept it safe until I returned to collect it. Thank you so much. Great and friendly service. We also eat here regularly and the portions are always generous.

Nice asian option in Camden. Portion we're OK, I didn't like the Ramen, too salty. Nice kids menu.

Hemos estado dos niñas y dos adultos comiendo el día 31 de diciembre. El restaurante está en Camden Town, un barrio increíble. La comida estaba muy rica: teriyaki soba-salmón, chicken katsu curry y dos mini chicken Katsu amai sauce. Fernanda, la camarera brasileña, es encantadora y nos atendió fenomenal. Sus recomendaciones fueron muy acertadas. La relación calidad-precio es excelente.

Great service and food from the Wagamama Camden branch 😁🙏

Quickly shown to a seat and introduced to our server. Great service from Adam. Love the new gochujang rice bowl.

If you want beef in your dish, do not order the beef brisket ramen (no.30). The broth was tasty, however there was a mountain of noodles in it, and only A TEASPOON’s worth of beef. Sad, unfair. Opt for the noodles with steak, that was a real visible piece of meat.

Food was amazing, only downside not all food was brought to our table together, so most was nearly finished while some were still waiting

Always a go-to for fresh food that comes quick and with a friendly smile. The Camden branch is no exception and we had a lovely meal.

yesh is a very nice person and the food was really good

Super restaurant ! Je remercie tout particulièrement Nanda qui a été super et a su parfaitement gérer notre problème d’allergie. En effet le restaurant propose de nombreuses options sans gluten et les serveurs sauront parfaitement vous renseigner concernant cela. Aussi, toutes les précautions nécessaires ont été prises: plat sans gluten cuisiné avec d’autres ustensiles, lavage de main pour éviter la contamination du gluten ect …

It was a rainy day after a tiresome interview. So I walked in here and I was craving something less curry-ish but more flavoursome dishes. I was analysing the menu for a good 3-5 minutes deciding what to eat. Hence it was a rainy and a bit chilly weather I went for the vegetable gyoza ramen with udon noodles. Cooked with perfection honestly. (+) points - Very hearty, packed with flavours, a bit less spicy I had to use the chilli oil from the table to pack up a punch of spiciness. I think ramen is best eaten for lunch or dinner. For £13.90 it’s worth the price and portion quantity. (-) points - Took me forever to finish my food, make sure you take some time to eat here because ramen comes in a huge bowl. And there’s no halal options (since I know about Wagamamas in the past they had halal meat options but this particular branch doesn’t have any halal options)

La comida estuvo buena, rica. Lo necesario. El lugar es agradable y el servicio es bueno. Nada del otro mundo.

very unhappy with the service,so slow and waitress was very very rude to us is not being allowed to have ur own drink a policy!!

We were not more than 20 customers at the venue with 3 waiters on the floor, easy job, but they were super slow, the kitchen wasn't a problem as there were many ready dishes on the top of the counter

Rudest service from very confrontational member of staff, only way I can identify is possibly Portuguese accent, young woman with short brown hair wearing deep pink lipstick. I was taken aback and never experienced such horrible service, my friend at the table had mentioned she was making rude gestures behind us, this all sparked when we showed a code to use upon paying out bill. I wouldn't return and I frequently go to Wagamamas elsewhere with no issues.

Wagamama...war ich dieses Jahr schon viermal. Immer wieder lecker, unkompliziert. Guter und schneller Service.

Overpriced. Miserable and sloppy service. Not great veggie options. They’ve changed the menu since last year.

Have visited and had deliveries from here, Fernanda (hope I spelt her name correctly) is amazing! Went above and beyond to make us and our child happy! Will happily order and visit many more times!

Exceptional service by Antonio First time to the camden Branch . Felt welcomed will be returning back to dine in next time with my family and friends Thank you for the the fab hospitality!

Good place, good food... Good people

Food was overpriced and just bland. The staff was even worse than the food, rolling their eyes at me when I complaint about the food. Waited almost an hour for my food for it to be cold and then changed it to be still cold. Not okay

The food was highly disappointing, I asked the waitress to deal with my complaint and she simply rolled her eyes at me. I will not be returning to Wagamama again

Healthy fresh food, very well presented and served.

אוכל בינוני, שירות בינוני, ההתייחסות הרצינית לאלרגיות שווה עוד כוכב

There is not proper or not air conditioning in the restaurant it was boiling inside. My kids were sweating badly. It is probably not just this branch but the food was terrible. If you really like Japanese food I would say don’t try Wagamama the rice and noodles were awful, tonkatsu chicken tasteless, and let know talk about the gyozas very disappointment.

Staff member cameron was very welcoming and friendly, food arrived quickly. Manager on the shift was also very friendly. Me and my friends enjoyed eating at camden town wagamamas this evening.

Very good food at the Camden branch of Wagamama. I had the vegetable gyoza and then vegatsu which I hadn't tried before. Both excellent. My partner had Korean beef bao buns and yaki Udon. We visited at 10pm and got a table without any problem. Other places in the area were closing so it was lucky. The music was a little bit too loud inside which was annoying as we wanted to chat over dinner.

Quiet when walked in but waited ages for a table. Asked for Gluten Free menu as I am Coeliacs. Was told the manager would bring it. Thought that was weird as always given one straight away. Waited ages and had to ask to order. Said I'm coeliacs so server had to get manager. No on earrived. Asked again. Manager came. Told him I was coeliacs and he said you need a special menu. I know I do. Went to get one. Ages to order. Food took ages to come. Drinks never arrived. Jept asking. Arrived when we had finished food. The iced coffee looked disgusting. It was watery and had white, gone off bits off milk floating around. Asked for it to be taken off.

Il miglior servizio che abbia ricevuto. Semplice, senza fronzoli e di supporto alla mia esperienza. Ho preso un ramen molto gustoso e una verdura - su questa sorvoliamo. Il gin tonic sakura pink mi ha incuriosito ma poi mi sono pentito - sciroppo per la tosse - così il solerte cameriere Jacob, stasera in prestito dal GMS, non ha perso tempo e me lo ha cambiato. Il ramen era davvero appetitoso. Ma il punto non è il cibo in se. Ma l’esperienza, ottima devo dire. Mancia “scan here” meritata.

Staff look like depressed captives .. no manners no smiles…. Just walking around like robots BECKY IS AN ASSET SUCH A HAPPY EMPLOYEE 5 stars

came with my friends for lunch and fernanda was very warm and helpful .

Disgusting food. Disgusting service. Disgusting attitude by the little Italian sounding female manager. (Don't know where they found her, she does not aquire the skillset or communication skills to run a restaurant) If you want to be served attitude, along with being served the incorrect order twice, which was also blanned and missing the ingredients listed... then this place is for you. If no stars were an option I would have selected this!

Excellent place, great food and service!

The food was delicious and the server we got was amazing! Will be going back on my next vacation.

Ramens are not good but Bao buns are not too bad. Take the pork one ! The waiters were very good though and this is a spacious restaurant.

A friend reccomend this restaurant and I'm so pleased I went in! Elliot and T.K were amazing and took such good care of me. I got the Ramen with chicken and it was sooo good. 🤌

I got an order on delivery roo and ordered the wrong item, I called them within a minute and asked them if they could just remove the prawns for me they said no and they would cancel the order and I could re order which I thought was great. 15 minutes later it showed up including prawns and couldn’t be eaten as I told them the person was allergic to prawns. Awful customer service don’t order on Deliveroo!!!!

Elliot is Fantastic! We been served with top quality customer service. The dishes been delivered right on time and with care. Positively impressed of great service. I really enjoy the athmospere. Much love for everyone🥰❤

Great place for an Asian twist.

Always love coming to the Camden Branch. Our server Elliot was so so nice! They honestly deserve to be the manager so much. They are attentive, nice and approachable. The food was also very nice! It came quickly and we really enjoyed it :)

Délicieux a gouté absolument quartier génial et très bonne cuisine service rapide

Speedy service, great for work lunches

Food was absoloutely delightful!!! The starters/sides are amazing.. the Duck Gyoza's continue to be my favourite food on this planet.

Food was good but my order was messed up so I had to wait till basically all my friends had finished. Serves was good and they removed my food from the bill. Its in the good location so not busy outside.

Top meal. Does what it says on the tin !

La plaza principal de Camden estaba a rebosar. Casi imposible moverse y aún peor pedir comida. A dos calles encontramos este restaurante de la cadena Wagamama. En cinco minutos ya estábamos sentados y con las bebidas aunque fuimos sin reserva. La comida asiática muy buena y el personal muy amable. Muy buena relación calidad precio y puedes pagar desde el teléfono móvil con el código que te dan en tu mesa. Después volvimos al centro de Camden para continuar la visita. Fue todo un acierto encontrar este restaurante. Muchas gracias.

Meal was nice. However, bit tight on the brisket.

Delicious Ramen.. Excellent service!! 😋

Leider keine gute Erfahrung in diesem Lokal gemacht. Der Laden ist insgesamt super laut, man kann sich schwer unterhalten. Der Service ist durchschnittlich, das Essen kommt bei nur 2 Personen nicht gleichzeitig, sondern so versetzt, dass die 1. Person mit dem Essen schon fertig ist bis die 2. Person das Gericht erhalten hat. Last but not least waren Gerichte kaum essbar, da deutlich zu scharf und das ohne entsprechende Kennzeichnung in der Karte. Dann doch besser etwas länger warten und ins Mildreds nebenan.

Love the chilli squid. I'm afraid , not much else

A restaurant without a soul we waited a bit at the entrance and asked for a table for 2 people. We were refused, although the tables remained free. The staff is unfriendly. I was surprised that the tables and benches are washed nearby while you eat. I do not recommend ordering grilled duck donburi, a lot of rice and cucumbers, but little meat for 17 pounds
