Wagamama - High Wycombe in Wycombe

Shocking restaurant. Should be closed down.

Once I had passed the intimidating, helmeted motor Bikers all waiting their Deliveroo to be handed out I had to wait to be noticed and shown a seat. I was obviously an inconvenience as only one waiter on duty it was another wait for my order to be taken. Food was again another wait but up to usual tasty standards. I think the Wagammas need to think about is it a restaurant where you come to enjoy a meal out or a fast food joint full of Bikers....

Really tasty food, nice atmosphere and friendly staff! I highly recommend Wagamama-High Wycombe.

Food tasty caters well for vegans. The High Wycombe branch though lacks atmosphere and feels quite crowded.

Wagamamas is my favourite restaurant in England. Service is always good and friendly. Always go for the chicken ramen. Great service from OH today in high Wycombe very friendly and receptive !

Good but the amount of protein vs garnish is ridiculous. Just bump prices up a bit and provide a quality dish.

Our waitress was really nice, but that’s as much as I can say as after 45’ waiting since we place our order I had to leave without having dinner. And the manager actitud wasn’t nice at all. It look like he was making us a favor for removing the food from the bill that we haven’t received.

I love this wagamama, best one i've been to. the waiters/waitresses are always so friendly, especially Iury! thank you :)

We arrived for an early lunch, just before midday. All of the staff we met were really friendly, helpful and engaging. The questions I had about the menu were efficiently answered, and so we ordered Chicken Katsu Curry and Salmon Teriyaki Sobu, followed by Banana Katsu and Smoked Chocolate Caramel Cake. There was no problem when I asked that a couple of ingredients be left out of the Sobu, as a personal preference. All of the food was delicious, the service was quick and the surroundings were clean and comfortable. We'll be back again. Thanks.

Went in with a group of 5, server was amazing and very patient with us and food was great, wish i could remember her name to refer it but if you find out, some praise to her from us would be very much appreciated. Also thanks to Ewa and the other managers for taking great care of us during our visit. Will most definitely definately come again 👌

As usual 5 star 🌟 for my favourite place !! Excellent service, top quality food and lovely ambiance. Highly recommend this place 👌

My order tonight was utterly disappointing. My ebi katsu were overfried, dry, brown with about a teaspoon of sauce. Why is your takeaway service so terrible? Is it because customers can't return the food or complain more vocally?The portion of vegetables for £5.00 had 3 small stalks of tender stem broccoli and 6 mangetouts. Doesn't even count for your 1 a day.

Worst Ginger chicken udon I've had from Wagamama. No ginger at all, but well padded out with hulking great chunks of raw red onion so you'd be lucky to taste gi her even if it was there.

Food was freezing staff were unattentive loud and messy! Worst Wagamama experience

I had the grilled chicken ramen and it was awesome...great portions and the staff were so friendly and helpful.

Lovely experience with great food and service as always

Great service. Wonderful food, as always

Ewa was amazing, great service. Will be back just because of her service 🤌🤌

Good place for a pan Asian fusion meal. Service somewhat lacking - my husband had almost finished his main course before mine had even arrived and even then we had to remind staff of my order.

Busy restaurant at end of shopping day. Food fresh and very tasty. Staff very friendly and helpful.

Made a quick stop after work. The chicken katsu felt like I was back in Hawaii. They gave me extra rice and extra curry. Had to pay a little more but totally worth it. The curry has the right amount of spice and the salad they snuck on there was perfect

We arrived on a horrid and wet day and felt welcomed by our server, who checked that we had visited before, saying when we were ready to jut give home wave,,,, We ordered 3 starters to share, crispy duck gyoza which were lovely, bro buns with pork and crispy apple fritter and the chicken satay; we shared a duck domburi bowl and were both full and happy… The Wycombe restaurant has very hard surfaces and so was extremely noisy, especially as there were several loud children… this is a shame for us older folks… also the toilets were up several flights of stairs, which I found challenging. Overall we enjoyed our meal but might think twice on a busy day….

My partner ordered Katsu curry and it tasted like plastic. We told the manager and he asked the chef who told him it must have been from the previous badge.. what an excuse! They should remove it from the bill but we paid full price. Disappointed. Teriyaki Soba was nice, this is why I am giving more stars.

Lovely welcome when we arrived. Got seated straight away. 2 of us have allergies and the waiter was very professional with what was on the menu. Plenty to choose from for vegans. Reasonably priced. Food was absolutely amazing and full of flavours. I would say the only downfall was 2 waitresses kept coming to our table asking if we want the bill, we had not finished. Also they tried taking our plates when we were still eating. We felt like we were being rushed.

If you want incorrect, cold tasteless food, with the equal amount of customer service in high Wycombe, Wagamama is the place for you!

Lovely customer service, friendly stuff, food was fresh and delicious, overall great experience, highly recommended x

Great food as always, service good, slightly quiet.

There aug 22nd. Great food and Lesley was by far and away the most customer focused, great interpersonal skills with customers. Foof great but I'm sorry to say toilets disgusting, wagamama get some standards there please!

Had a good break from shopping with 3 sharer dishes between two of us. Everything was perfect. We particularly loved the mushroom bao. Fab, friendly service

The food was amazing as usual and the staff were very good as usual. What ruined it for us was a couple of men with young children(4 or 5). These 2 children were feral little beasts who did whatever they wanted to do, to which the men did absolutely nothing to control them . The food strewn all over the table and floor the jumping over the table and seats, the screaming, all with not a flicker of an eye by the dad's. The older of the men summonsed a young server and preceeded to give him a huge lecture on hiw to be a good server and when he was finished with him he then ordered the manger over and gave her a huge lecture/bollocking . The staff did nothing wrong atall and behaved very professionally in my eyes. Maybe they should start lecturing the children on .anners and how to behave in a restaurant in future. Apparently not the first time this man has reduced a .ember of staff yo tears..... please bar him from your lovely restaurant

Had the tropical juice, chicken katsu curry and ice cream - all was amazing as always! Morgan rules 😎👊🏻

All smiles on entry. We were assigned a waitress but several people brought the food and water. Unfortunately, my husband's meal was served a good ten minutes before my own which didn't get things off to a good start. This happened at other tables too. Staff seemed to be randomly plonking food and drinks all over the dining area as it appeared from the kitchen rather than serving food to a specific table. My husband ordered the firecracker chicken curry which was ridiculously hot. No one came to check if our food was OK. He ate it but it wasn't enjoyable and when asked at the cash register how the food was, he told the staff member. And we said that my meal (chicken katsu) was good. However, she was pre-occupied with the credit card machine and clearly wasn't listening so he asked her if she'd heard what he'd said. We told her again. Her reply was a shocker, "It's called firecracker for a reason". I found that rude and condescending. That assumes that if you believe it's 'too hot', you shouldn't have ordered it, rather than the chef made a mistake in preparation. We are used to very hot dishes having lived in India and all over Asia - the object isn't to make food so hot that its flavour can't be tasted. It simply wasn't a good meal.

morgan is amazing she deserves the Prosecco

The food was great, but what absolutely made our experience was our waitress Morgan. Morgan was funny, kind and helpful, by far the best service I’ve ever had in this restaurant! She was awesome!

I’ve been there so many times but BY FAR had the best service from Morgan!! She’s funny, very helpful and just overall brilliant.

Food was allright although a bit low on taste. Bathroom is a disgrace.

Clean place, service is outstanding. Food was ok, could be much better.

Came for dinner tonight with friends, had the chicken gyoza ramen which was delicious. George our server was smashing through and through. Will be back again very soon.

Amazing experience, phenomenal service, Jack especially was the best waiter I’ve ever had at a Wagamamas !!

Fantastic food as always - came out nice and quick with good customer service especially for a Friday night. Special shoutout to server Jack and bartender Shay. Plus thank you Ana, Ava, Harry, Liberty and Tyronne - great team!

SHAY, DAGZ , TYRONE, ANNA AND REST OF TEAM ARE AMAZING VERY NICE PEOPLE BRINGED ME LOTS OF YUMMY FOOD

It delivered an excellent customer service each time. Food is truly spectacular, each dish carefully prepared to include a composition of flavours.

Great atmosphere as always. Great selection of vegan food highly recommend mushroom buns. Amazing customer service by morgan she went above an beyond.

The new dishes and drinks are always a welcome change but we coke back for the excellent service Morgan really is a star

Morgan was great - such a great waitress. Funny and attentive.

Morgan was fantastic - excellent service, and a wonderful experience at Wagas!! Thanks Morgan

Super lovely food and atmosphere, thanks Morgan for making it extra special 😊

Love the vegan options. Just wish there was more vegan and gluten free things.

We went out as a family with three young children, the service we received from Morgan was above and beyond! Absolutely exceptional, she was so attentive, friendly and super helpful. With fussy and fidgety children, she catered to all their wants and did it with such care and attention. Bringing them little treats and keeping them happy. She made the visit amazing and even helped my youngest put his coat on and do his zip up! The

Love Wagas! Great restaurant, lovely team - special mention to Morgan who was a superstar on our visit! Food always excellent.

I visited Wagamama on a lovely Sunday afternoon at around 14:20. The moment we walked in, we were warmly greeted by the staff. We wanted to sit at a booth, and the manager, Tharun, immediately attended to our request and quickly sorted it out for us. My daughter can be quite picky when it comes to food, but Tharun was exceptionally patient and helpful in guiding her through the menu. With his assistance, she chose a dish that she absolutely loved. The entire dining experience was delightful, thanks to the attentiveness and professionalism of the staff, especially Tharun. I highly recommend Wagamama for anyone looking for delicious food and outstanding service. Kudos to Tharun and the team for making our visit a memorable one. We will definitely be coming back!

As you would expect with a Wagamamas. The food is always good. Plenty of seating, and the staff are polite

The team at High Wycombe were so amazing and accommodating. Everyone was happy, service was top notch and we had a really great time. Will be back!

Molto buono con tanta scelta. Ottimo per pranzare durante lo shopping. Molto busy, camerieri gentili ma abbiamo dovuto sollecitare le bevande più di una volta.

This is my friend and I's favourite Asian restaurant in Wycombe, come here every month. We always order the same things actually, the steak soba and pad thai. The quality of the food stay consistent, always so tasty! We normally order some gyozas and chicken skewers on the side as well, just enough for 2 people! The waitress Emma today was very smiley, sat us down straight away when there were seats available. Both service and food were on point!!

I really enjoyed the food here, especially the shirodashi pork belly ramen - it’s the best when it goes with spicy broth!! The sides are all great, we ordered a portion of the ebi katsu, chilly squid and wok fried greens, really filling. The staff were very attentive, asking about allergies and gave good recommendations! Will definitely be back!

You know you’re going to get tasty Japanese food served quickly at any Wagamama, but this branch also has some of the most helpful and welcoming staff you’re ever going to find in a chain restaurant. Gets super busy from lunchtime, but turnaround is so quick you won’t have to wait long. If there’s any negative it’s that the toilets upstairs could do with a bit of TLC (actually they could do with a full Japanese makeover, but I don’t think that’s really Wagamama’s style). If you found my review or photos helpful please a quick thumbs up 👍 Thank you!

Friendly staff works here. The food was delicious. Very nice that one of the staff spoke our language and struck up a conversation. Dankjewel daarvoor. Super leuk was dat!

We had great service! Food was to the usual high standard. It's not the most spacious branch so felt a bit cramped, they have to manage constant deliveroo drivers almost literally by the back door, you can hear the delivery orders pinging in so the kitchen is even busier than the full restaurant suggests. We did have to wait for kids food which is the opposite of what you want. Paying online without calling your server back is supposed to be easy but we had a glitch where somehow the number given to us was invalid by one digit. As it was busy, we therefore had to wait to get the correct number - according to the server this isn't too uncommon so it needs fixing. Gave me time to delete the Wagamama app which used to be poor but no longer works at all. Long-term issue with systems not really fixed then.

Went in for a nice meal with my girlfriend we were sat under the air con that was set at -40, were served by and then revived our food, my girlfiried got the completely wrong thing, was served prawns which we told them she is allergic too, they then took it away after 10 minuetes of convincing that was not what we ordered, i then got my meal which wasn’t too bad but for the next 30 mins my girlfriends food didn’t arrive, then after wards we decided we’d take it away, and it still cost £45 for 2 drinks 2 starters and a main, how does this make any sense, horrendous service just all round bad experience won’t be going back

Best food with a nice atmosphere for families and friends. I love the quality of the food.

The food is very good. Staff members are polite and smiling, I don't like self-order that much. Overall atmosphere felt like it was "you have to eat quick cause there is a line of people waiting".

I love their food 😋 very good meal for the money you pay.

Came last minute on a Sunday evening, despite closing soon they were still really attentive and friendly. Morgan served us and was very welcoming and helpful when it came to ordering, will be back again. 10/10

Good food. There was a bit of confusion about the QR code and table number but the staff were patient with us! Service was quick.

Good service, great food, what more do you need? 😁

At the time of the visit, the restaurant was very busy. However, the service was very good and the food very good.

Something different. Noodles or not noodles, that is the question. Easy to find near the bus station and M&S. Friendly service.

Food was amazing, just very expensive

Food was excellent, service was great space feels large yet also intimate.

After fighting our way through the door entirely blocked with deliveroo drivers we were seated in a position that was in the draft caused by the door being constantly opened. Don't go on a Saturday night. Food was poor, tea stained egg was fridge cold and the duck gyoza were overcooked. Staff all seemed fed up apart from one who was very pleasant.

I just wanted to recognise the incredible service that I received from Morgan this evening. She was super friendly, helpful and made the visit a real pleasure -the type of service you rarely see any more. The food was also brilliant - after a long day travelling for work this was just what I needed. Thank you

So, half way through our meal we ordered a hi-5 smoothie, only to find a nail in the drink, We approached the waiter who brushed this off and offered to make a fresh drink and assured us that the machine will be cleaned. However, once the realisation of how unacceptable and revolting this was, we were unable to continue with our meal and drink so immediately asked for the bill. What was more concerning to us was the laisser faire attitude of the staff, who in our opinion treated this as a regular occurrence.

The food was up to the normal quality of Wagamamas, arriving at a reasonable time, well made and tasty. The service and other choices by this location are extremely frustrating. Our waitress was extremely quiet where we could barely understand what she was saying - even though we were location at a quiet part of the restaurant. She did not seem to know what was going on, and although friendly was not familiar with the menu. Having informed her that one diner had a nut allergy, she came to take our order. After informing us that she'd have to check with the manager to confirm about the allergy, we tried to inform her of the other orders. As she spoke extremely softly, we weren't sure if she even took the orders or she was more preoccupied with asking the manager about the nut allergy. A further strange thing was that the menu did not mention the complimentary green tea, and nor was this offered during ordering (unlike all of the other Wagamamas I've been to). When the food arrived we were missing utensils. Unable to catch the attention of any wait staff I had to find and pick some up myself. Since that point no wait staff ever imitated contact to ask how we found the food (unlike every other Wagamamas I've been to). When we finally managed to flag someone to pay, we had to explain multiple times that we would prefer to pay seperately by card rather than using their onlime service. Splitting the bill was of great difficulty, a common issue as some neighbouring diners also expressed frustration over their failure to split the bill. Overall this experience has left me baffled at how this location is run - although the food was up to standard I simply do not understand the extremely poor service when dining at off peak hours and a reasonable amount of diners!

We were a table of 5. All ordered together the other 4 got their meals. Waitress came over after a while and asked me where my food was.....not really something I would know. I waited, the others were all eating theirs. Waitress came over and said it's coming soon. I waited a bit longer, by this time everyone else was well into their meals, almost finished. It's not a great experience sitting there without food while everyone else has theirs. I'd gone off the whole idea by this point, went over to the waitress and asked to cancel mine as everyone else had nearly finished theirs. She said ok, no real apology for the hold up. Not been to Wagamama before won't bother again. 3 stars only because the waitress was really good to one of the kids in our party.

Rude staff. We had to eat at the exact spot they wanted us to sit. So no choice of seating. If I’m going to spend money I want to have a choice. Ended up walking out and thank god we did. Found a really nice place down the road. Won’t be returning to this place again I visited this restaurant on the 29th January 2023 around 9.00p.m with 4 adults

Started off great friendly waiter drinks ordered straight away and came fast. We ordered food and everything was okay. My food arrived fast. However, I asked when my partners food was going to come, and the reply was, "It takes longer to cook." With this knowledge, food timing should have been more coordinated within the kitchen and the waiting staff. 10 minutes went past, and I asked again where my parents' food was, and the women asked what it's was and laughed at us, almost mocking us for not knowing the food, and went to find out. The food arrived shortly after. My food went cold, unfortunately. The man who served us was lovely and gave good recommendations, but the after service was underwhelming.

Gorgeous healthy fresh food . Amazing service from Massimo a young English/ italian with a fantastic attentive polite attitude. Just the kind of person that a company should have front of house. Beautiful food from the hardworking chefs top job.

Welcoming staff and well rounded food, would recommend.

Quite busy, fast service and of course lovely food.

Friendly staff however long wait for food after order taken. Pad Tai portion small for the price.

Had lunch for five of us on Tuesday it was soi cold in there that all the customers were wearing coats.I am a pensioner and I did not enjoyed the experience,could not eat my meal so I had it boxed to take it home

I have come here about 5 times in the last year and the staff always say their coffee machine isn't working yet they still advertise coffee on their menu..It is pretty unbelievable

Always a pleasure to eat here. Friendly and efficient staff

It was absolutely heaving, but the staff had us sat down within 5 minutes. We were not hemmed in either co sidering how busy they were. Food came quickly and tasted great.

The food is excellent, and the staff are very friendly and helpful

Staff appear a bit overwhelmed (drinks arrived after the main dishes - with apologies - and with one wrong), but we all thoroughly enjoyed our meal.

Literally the best thing u can order. Don't even order anymore just come in and there's a bowl of pork ramen waiting.

Lovely staff - great meal despite being really busy. Really enjoyed our time and food!

Myself and my partner have eaten here several times for a quick bite to eat whilst being out and about, we have constantly had very good customer service from Robin the manager at this restaurant. Robin is always very polite, professional and friendly and makes you feel valued as a customer. Very good service especially as the restaurant gets very busy at time.

Delicious good. Tons of flavour And the staff in this particular branch have ways been very nice and attentive

No negatives to report. It's been a few years since I've been to wagamama and the food is still good and very reasonably priced as it always was.

Delicious, filling food. Friendly and helpful staff who go the extra mile to make sure you have a good experience. Would always recommend eating here for lunch or dinner.

Food and service was amazing as always. Only issues were toilets with no toilet paper or soap.

the best ramen in town, if you grew up with animes, some curiosity about japan/correan culture...this is definetely the place to taste a little of it, don't miss the chance to try some ramen or some other dishes with race and delicious meat

The food was average tasteless to somewhat. The prawns on my prawn firecracker -6 small prawns (compared to before half the size) and plate filled with peppers and spring onions. Not value for money at all. The fish was too spicy and you couldn’t taste anything else. I guess the heat took away anything that might have been there. My daughter ordered a gyoza raman again lacked flavour. Shame as the prawn Raman was really good. Staff were busy getting takeaway orders ready as drivers standing at doorway. I guess could be a reason they didn’t pay attention to guests sat inside. Will be a while before we return. The franchise needs to sort itself out if it wants to survive the current climate. Cutting a lot of corners. I’d rather pay more for a decent meal.

Awful, I don’t know why ppl eat here

Really yummy food and great service from Shannon. Thanks so much

Arrived to have a meal to find long queue outside...with tables which were empty inside....when I asked the staff member on the door why the tables were not being utilised I was told it was because they were short staffed.....when I replied by saying that that wasn't a valid excuse I was told in no uncertain terms that it wasn't her problem... So my partner and I ate somewhere else.... No way to run a restuarant...maybe pay a bit more to get staff then you would be able to serve more customers and bemore productive... Shame, shame shame...no way to run a business....especially one that relies on customers!!!!! And please don't blame it on covid.. Update....Sadly no response from Wagamama and it seems that I am not the only one to have had a bad experience...your loss Wagamama...not mine

Friday night 09.15pm and very busy but our wait was not too long. The Ramen I chose was spicy just a little much for me but helped down with ice cold Japanese beer. Service was a little long but the restaurant was full and clearly the kitchen at capacity. Our waitress kept us posted and we enjoyed our meal. Probably better to have been earlier to avoid any wait
