Wagamama - Manchester Spinningfields in Manchester

Came here for a quite dinner. Liked it wasn't to full but could see staff were attentive. Definetly recommend the cherry blossom gin, chicken gyoza and yaki udon.

We always have a brilliant time at this wagamamas. This time though was fantastic and Eric was a great waiter with so much enthusiasm and happiness 💜💜 HIGHLY recommend!!

Great customer service, food and all over experience

Excellent, best wagamama in Manchester

Pretty love the concept, very much enjoyed the dishes.

Everything is excellent! I force myself to have dinner here every time I travel to the UK. I hope they open branches in Buenos Aires ♡

Everything was excellent. Delicious noodles with fried duck.

The best Wagamama in Manchester

We come here fairly frequently and the food always lives up to a good standard. I always eat from the vegan menu which is going from strength to strength. The icing on the cake though is the service we always receive from Ashley, one of the best servers in all the Wagamama’s I’ve been to and there are quite a few. What makes her so special? She greets you with the best smile and welcome, is very perceptive to the needs of the customer which means you get great service. All Hail Ashley! 🤗

Food was great and always good at Wagamama. We got a lovely warm welcome from Ashley and even though it was a month since our previous visit she remembered us which was a special greeting. Thanks again to Ashley for providing a great service with a great sense of humour 😁

Food was great. Always good at wagamama. Thank you to Ashley for providing great service!

Great treat outside in warm weather today. Excellent waitress: Ashley 👏👍🏻

Eric was a really good server who recommended good veggie options :)

Look - I love noodles so no brainer but this review is for the staff, particularly a waitress called Ashley. Great service, professionalism and friendliness. Solo eater - looked after brilliantly - thanks Ashley.

Came for food on an evening before going to the theatre and it was very cold inside and the service was just as cold also. It was quiet and the staff seemed more interested in chatting to one another than the few diners that were seated. It was very transactional from start to finish which is a shame as the food was quite good.

I was welcomed and left at a table, and that’s it. For 20 minutes, nobody ask for my order. Staff happily take orders and send food to other customers, and all ignored me. Maybe because I’m alone or I look Asian? I don’t know. I said excuse me loudly a few times, yet staff seem to be all deft and ignored me. Eventually, after 20 minutes, I had to leave the place feeling awful. Don’t come to this place if you are on your own or do not look English.

I Loved the new Shitake soul bowl, delisous. I ordered tap water twice but never got any so 3 stars for service. My daughter had katsuri chicken and said our local Tokyo takeaway in levenshulme make it much tastier.

Great to try the new menus items and cocktails

7 years ago I wrote “Casual and attentive at the same time, good selection of tasty food. Happy and helpful staff. Clean” I would like to share my recent experience at a restaurant where I dined with two others. Unfortunately, the booth table was not cleared when we arrived, which made it challenging for us as two of us have mobility issues and could not sit on the wooden bench. Moreover, it was quite arduous to grab anyone's attention to take our orders for food and drinks. To add to our disappointment, we received green tea that was either served with dust in the pot and lukewarm or with an abundance of leaves and boiling hot. When I approached the manager with both pots at the end of the evening, I received a dismissive response, "I did not make either, and it's free. What else do you expect?" As a result, I have revised my rating from 5 to 1, and I believe even one rating is too generous.

Good friendly service and as always great freshly cooked food.

Tends to be quieter than the St Peters Square branch but just as good !

We had a birthday gathering for kids and adults, it was amazing! They got us in with no issues, gave the celebrating kids cakes on the house, food came quickly and exactly as ordered including quite a lot of swapping ingredients which they had no trouble with. Service was really good, nothing was too much and atmosphere was great and quiet so you could talk and enjoy your food. Will defo come back and highly recommend this specific branch. 👍

After initial slight confusion over our order Ashley took over and provided great service. Thanks a lot. Really enjoyed the food, service and our visit.

Staff very friendly and very helpful - food perfect and handled dietary requirements quickly and easily

Ashley was a fantastic host today - she ordered my 5 year old daughter's meal in advance and moved us without our request to a more suitable booth when she saw we had a young baby with us. She couldn't be more friendly and helpful - the food was served quickly and we had a great experience.

Ashley was amazing lady and made it wonderful

Took dad for his first Wagamamas on Saturday for a pre-show meal! It was lovely. Tasty, and they catered for gluten-free for me!

Lovely lunch, Ashley really polite and knowledgeable and helpful with us selecting from big menu. Recommend

Very busy but doesn't change the quality of the food or the service we've been many times and we'll be back soon cheers 👍

Made an order on Deliveroo. Half the order turned up. I called this Wagamama to ask if they knew anything. The person on the phone laughed whilst escalating to their manager. I couldn’t believe how rude and dismissive the service was

Visited on a Tuesday night which was quiet (the only reason I marked the atmosphere as a 3) Service was pleasant and friendly although a little bit slow. Food was flavoursome and hot.

My first time absolutely loved it ,food amazing lala our waitress was lovely ,will be back soon

It was amazing the staff are absolutely amazing thank u lala and sonny x x

Absolutely 100% I brought my mum for a late mother's day treat the food was lovely service was fantastic chefs and the staff I think he waa called Eric thanks my mum loves it 😀

Delicious ramen, but be careful it’s quite spicy🌶️

Excellent as always. This branch has a really friendly staff team. My server tonight, Ashley, was particularly fantastic.

Great food as always and excellent service from Ashley.

My workplace is close to this restaurant, making it a pretty regular haunt for me. The food is always good but my experience yesterday was made all the more brilliant by a staff member called Lala. She was helpful, attentive, charming and just an all round credit to Wagamama. Thank you!

Super friendly staff. Ashley gave very good service, polite and asked if we had everything from our order. Have been a number of times now and the food has always been on point. Thank you so much.

Had a minor hiccup during a recent visit but it was the staff that turned round the experience and were amazing. Special mention to Eric Thank you guys

Lovely restaurant, great service and food

At here in Jan ‘24 whilst on a business trip. Wagamama is good when you’re travelling alone because you can either take your time or be quick, and staff are good at making you feel welcome. Food this time was good as usual, served quickly whilst tasting fresh. In and out in half an hour. Definitely would go back.

Wagamama always has great food. This location was no different. I had the Steak Soba which was great. Service was ok with a friendly waiter. Atmosphere, due to the quietness probably, was lacking and so the street food vibe was missing.

Food was lovely and Eric was so lovely made us feel so welcome; overall super good service.

It was a quiet evening when we arrived and food arrived quickly. The food was tasty however we ordered some of the mocktails and they didn’t live up to mocktails available in other restaurants. Wouldn’t recommend ordering them but other than that was a nice time.

Another gorgeous meal at Wagamama! It was very busy between the local pantomime preformances at the Opera House, but our sever Ashley was absolutely fantastic. Great food and great service. Only problem is my daughters discovered they love Gyozas too, so I didn't get any.....

Ashley was amazing! Service was quick and super friendly, great food too! Will definitely be back thanks to Ashley :)

Staff were kind and quick, the food came out extremely quickly and tastes amazing - as usual. I'd definitely recommend trying either the Beef Brisket Ramen or the Hot Pot as they are delicious! Also the Blossom/Sakura Lemonade is amazing too!

Top top waitresses Ashley I think she was called. Very friendly, made perfect recommendations and honestly a credit to her employer. Made my overall experience enjoyable and easy.

We had the tastiest good and the best service from our lovely waitress Ashley. Ashley was really friendly and enthusiastic in serving our table. Great good and very approachable server. Recommend .

Ashley made our experience absolutely fantastic. Food was lovely and brill service :)

Service was amazing Ashley served us throughout our meal and gave us top quality service she went above and beyond for us!

Tutto davvero molto buono! Consiglio anche i drink

Love love love Amazing food and excellent service

the food was so good and the staff were so nice

Fantastic service - whilst the food is fabulous (as always) what really shines through is the amazing staff, especially Ashley! We came in for my sisters birthday meal and couldn’t have been treated better! Ashley was so attentive and she made sure we had everything we needed throughout. The world needs more Ashley’s! Thanks for an amazing meal xox

A very nice location, and very tasty food with lots of vegetarian and vegan options, and free green tea! My only reservations are that the portions were a little stingy for the price, and my starter was every so slightly cold in the middle despite being charred on the outside, it also took a little while to be seated, until we were helped by a lovely bartender, the manager also seemed a little intense. All of this could be forgiven if the restaurant was full, but it was half empty, which makes me wonder if they're understaffed? Despite this, they're all little niggling complaints, and I'd still recommend Wagamama if you're in the area.

My korean hot pot with tteokbokki was delicious and the staff was super frienly

Ashley was absolutely great. She made the whole experience amazing with her lovely manner and warm personality. She couldn’t do enough for us! The food came very quickly which was amazing too. Ashley is a credit to Wagamamas, I’ve never been treated so nicely before by a server and I will definitely be returning.

Quite different to the London venues, had a lovely time

Amazing food, great service especially Keesha, such a warm welcome

Very tasty Asian food, and very friendly staff. One plate was a bit late (was no problem for us), but Jess took it off our bill without hesitation.

Friendly efficient staff, great food and everyone left happy

Perfectly located just off Deansgate on Spinningfields Square. We were given a nice Waga welcome and a choice of seats. For our meal, we chose bao buns with pork filling and a spicy sauce and the ginger chicken noodle dish. The food was hot and tasty and the portions were quite sufficient. The staff were polite and helpful. The restaurant was spotlessly clean, as were the ladies loos. It was disappointing that the gents loos were absolutely disgusting this time. There was obviously a blockage and one of the urinals was blocked and overflowing with urine. This is not normal for Wagamama. But hey, it's all about the food, so one blip in years of visits is fine and we can't wait to return.

This was without doubt the worse meal I have ever had , the whole experience was terrible from start to finish. The service was appalling. The food was worse than awful. It was an experience, but I hope never to have again. My wife was physically sick on the way out.

Love the katsu... Always a winner

Excellent food and quick to come to table from kitchen. Staff are very attentive and friendly. Great experience overall and recommend.

Delicious ramen and steamed buns!

Brilliant as always. Would highly recommend especially as a vegan

Good food, though prefer Tampopo for the all-round experience

Can't go wrong with a bit of wagamama after cinema. Loved by my tiny family member

I’m from Los Angeles. Food like this will never survive over there. Very average food. British you guys can do better

Unfortunately my yaki udon was a little over, crispy would be my description. Also yakitori chicken was a little over too. Overall it's the same chain and menu.

Amazing experience here, the server Jess deserved a raise so friendly and accommodating, along with the bar staff didn’t quite catch his name but what a wonderful Experience!

Usual great service, and friendly neighbours on our table.

The most mediocre bland ramen in Manchester. Such an upsetting place to spend an anniversary. The only thing that saves the meals is the chilli oil, of which we bravely used half.

Waitress named Alice was so lovely and so I had to write a review for a special mention! She was the best and so helpful.

Great place to eat! Eric was so helpful and friendly, the atmosphere is lovely definitely will return!

Whenever I come here I order beef ramen but today I wanted something different, and on the waiter's recommendation I ordered a chicken katsu salad, and I have to say that it was one of the best salads I've ever tasted, fresh, well-dressed, clean , Enough quantity to continue the day without heaviness, the waiter Eric was very attentive, he made an effort that at all times I did not miss anything. Relaxed place to eat. I will return as always a success.

Excellent service . Very clean and beautifully presented and tasty food . Place had a lovely relaxing vibe and presented good value for money . Thank you

I really enjoy the food here, great selection of taste food presented well, served by friendly staff . I have been there a few times so had to write a review.

we always have a great experience with wagamamas, very efficient and the food is quasi incredibly tasty and varied. Manni served us particularly in this store and was a lovely server - very friendly, checked on us several times and ensured we had everything we needed. a credit to this wagamamas - thank you Manni!

First time ever in Wagamama! We enjoyed our food, there was a great atmosphere and the staff and service was really good. Special thanks to the manager for her kind gesture.

I’ve started to come here on my lunch break from work because the service is excellent and very fast. Kat is a phenomenal server and always goes the extra mile to ensure everything is perfect. Efficient and friendly service from all the staff and always delicious food!

Want to keep this review short and sweet but this is actually one of the best Chinese restaurants I've ever been to. Service, food quality and drinks were all top tier. Only thing that could have made this better would be Duck Pancakes on the Menu as I love those. I went for Chili Squid instead which ive never had before and ended up ordering a second plate as they didn't have any spring rolls either. Will be returning!

Unfortunately we had a pretty bad experience tonight. Went for dinner at 5:30 with my family. My husbands and kids food came out with about 15 minutes between them. After 20 minutes mine still hadn’t arrive. I asked the waitress to chase it up - who said it wouldn’t be long. My husband observed a conversation with the kitchen that made it very obvious my dish had been forgotten. Waited a further 10 minutes and still hadn’t arrived. By this point everyone else had finished - so I told them to cancel the order and we left without me having eaten. Sadly this isn’t this first time we have had poor service at this Wagamama. The waitress was apologetic but I really don’t understand how they keep getting it so wrong. Surely rice and noodles aren’t the most complicated of dishes to get right. Not sure will return again.

Arrived and taken to table while restaurant was fairly empty. Ordered food (2 ramen dishes and 2 glasses of water) quite quickly. Partners ramen arrives in a normal amount of time (before tap water) my ramen does not arrive until he has nearly finished his meal. My ramen arrives and is cold which I complain about. My dish is taken away with no explanation and no one returns with an apology or to say what will happen next. We wait another 10 minutes and decide to pay for the 1 ramen dish. We still receive no apology and pay and leave the store. Will not be returning.

Great restaurant. Staff were awesome as always. Served quickly and got food at the table in no time at all. Delicious as ever! Top quality experience, consistent every time. Donburi bang on as usual, but enjoyed some of the new sides! Love that every time I come there's something new and tasty to try on the menu. Recommended and will return.

This used to be a great Wagamamas. Me and a friend visited on a Saturday about 1.30 and it wasn’t that busy. The service was terrible. The waiter was miserable, we had to ask to order and the drink and food took ages to arrive. Not only that but the food has gone downhill. No spoons for the ramen and when I asked the waiter he said they were all in the dishwasher - laughable! The staff tell you that the food comes out at different times. I think it’s just an excuse for the lack of organisation and competency skills in the kitchen. Other restaurants (noodle bars) that are similar in concept don’t struggle with serving food to the table at the same time. We won’t be returning.

Being quite fond of wagamama chain we decided to check out this place in Ashton Moss retail park. The experience was so terrible that we might never go there again. The food quality was average at the best - it was the customer service that...

Was busy ordered gluten free for my daughter, I had Chicken Katsu curry. Have to say noodles were undercooked on my daughters ramen, about two thirds chicken on my katsu was inedible. No manager available to take daughters order. Won't be going back to this...

Went here on Wednesday with my partner and the food was super delicious, we tried it for the first time a few months ago and loved it :) we will come back here again soon!

Wagamama is Wagamama. The food is always tasty and that’s why I come here, but one particular member of staff sets this branch apart from the rest. That person is Jean; she is an absolute credit to your company.

Went for a pre-concert meal around 5pm. First impressions wasn't good. We arrived and were handed menus at the door and asked to follow the server to our table. Can't recall this ever happened before in any bar / restaurant. Very bad service. The server...

We went to wagamamas and i ate chilli ramen and i loved it! great staff and our food came very quick, this is a very nice place to eat!

The food is of course good but the service is just impeccable, I cannot describe how impressed I am. That is the best restaurant service I’ve had in all of the UK, incredible!!!

We were so, so cold, the night we went. We asked to move somewhere warmer, but it was still cold. I know it's important to keep aircon flowing and the like at the minute, but it's not great when you are cold to the point...

All the staff we met were very pleasant and helpful. The beef buns had a tiny amount of beef in them, had had before but disappointed this time. Rest of the food was ok but not great. It also looks like it needs a deep...

We visited Manchester spinning fields before we when to the theatre and we were seated by a gentleman (blonde hair) and we were explained everything and that we can pay with our phones which we found amazing and easy. The restaurant was quite busy and...
