Wamimichi Noodle Bar in Luton

Great food always love the needle soup here

To be honest, I didn't get a chance to taste the food. I went there one evening and the customer service was an absolute joke. She sat us and make us wait for over 25 mins. We literally had to walk out the door. Customer service was an absolute joke..Never again

Tasty and affordable. Vast selection of noodles and rice dishes. They are happy to swap out ingredients.

Restaurant environment was clean and well presented. Tom yum soup was delicious but the special fried noodle dish was bland and lack lustre to say the least. No flavour or spice even though I’d asked for it to be spicy. When I asked for some sesame oil and chilli oil to elevate the dish beyond fried plain veg, I only got a small flat dish of oil that looked like the dregs of a deep frier without the chilli or sesame taste… this was for the fee of an additional £2. Unlikely to go back again

Today, my friend and I popped into a restaurant we used to frequent, and I have to say, it was a letdown. We have been regular, though I have not gone as much recently. However, this time, I could not help but feel things had gone downhill. The staff’s attitude left much to be desired, and the drinks were subpar. When we walked in, a staff member curtly told us to sit down and turned his back on us. Suddenly, he tossed the menu onto the table and immediately began pressing us to place our order, not even giving us a moment to settle. As we started ordering, he completely ignored us when we mentioned we were regulars, prattling on with whatever he wanted to say. When we were finally ready, he stood there, visibly impatient. The moment we paused to think, he walked off! I have never encountered a server in the UK so impatient — it felt like he could not be bothered. We ordered starters and mains, but he did not even ask if we wanted them served separately or together. As a result, the mains arrived first, with the starters following much later. To top it off, when the food arrived, there was no cutlery. We asked, and he dismissively told us to fetch it ourselves, his disdain making us feel more like prisoners being scolded by a guard than customers in a restaurant. Throughout our meal, he kept trying to sell us other products. We mentioned that we had bought what we wanted not long ago, but he seemed intent on pushing more. As we ate, there was still over half an hour until closing, so my friend ordered a ready-made dessert. He grudgingly took the order, but it did not arrive until just ten minutes before closing. My friend barely had five minutes to finish it before he came over and ordered us to leave because they were closing up. In addition, just five minutes before closing, other customers walked in to order food. He told them they could not dine in but could order to go and then loudly grumbled about how it would keep him from finishing up. While he did not say it in English, every dine-in customer who understood Cantonese got it, which felt unprofessional. It got even more ridiculous when it came time to settle the bill. He did not ask if we wanted to split it or if we were members, so we had to bring it up ourselves. And once again, he barely listened to us, just plonked the bill down, leaving us to figure it out ourselves. This place was known for its welcoming service back in the day. The staff would always ask for our feedback, be warm and friendly, and encourage customers, including us, to return. They always asked if we were happy with the food and if we needed to split the bill, and they never pushed additional items on us. We often returned because they made us feel relaxed and valued, explaining the menu and genuinely asking about our experience with the food. The food quality used to be a real treat—they put proper effort into maintaining authentic Hong Kong and South east Asian flavours. But today, it was a real let-down, especially the iced lemon tea, which bizarrely appeared to have milk added, giving it a colour more like chocolate milk than tea! In the past, I felt this place brought together the best of Hong Kong hospitality with UK dining culture, a combination I genuinely enjoyed. But now, it has all gone a bit pear-shaped. The service and quality have dropped, leaving me wondering if I will bother returning.

Brilliant food, we were shocked when we first tried it!Staff was great and was popular

Shame, was not the level I expected.

An excellent place for chinese/ Japanese food. Good value, great service given. The restaurant was full of chinese/ Japanese customers so you can tell it is a great restaurant. Food came out quickly and was delicious to eat. Prices were good too. I have been and will go again to this restaurant. Service was excellent and staff recognised you when you walked in.

The noodles tasted like spaghetti not authentic ramen but the broth was delicious . Overall experience was good. Nice atmosphere.

Good service and very delicious food!!

Very lovely food and delicious, nice place with plenty of smiles from customers and waitreses.

No issue with service or atmosphere, the food was not balanced in flavour, some of the food lacked flavour and I wouldn’t go back

Very tasty food the best in luton

Hair in the soup!! Absolutely disgusting 🤮 I ordered for collection and got hair in the soup. Called them and they wanted me to come back to get new so causally. With that taste, no thanks. Disgusting.

Its probably the best Hong-Kong, Singapore n Malaysia style Chinese food restourant around Luton. Really enjoyed the bihun singapore and Hor Fun. Nice balance and near to authentic taste. I would surely return soon to sample more of the menu.

Arrived at collection time to be told they hadn't got my order from their website, they then printed it out and I waited 20+ mins for food. Food was ok, nothing out of the ordinary.

It's my first experience of Chinese food .If you are an universal food lover you will not going to regret .✌️🤗

Nice food for good prices. Not a lot of tables, but good value for money

It smells of sewage. This appears to be an ongoing issue. It's not too unpleasant when you get used to it. To be fair, it's Luton - it's positively luxurious. Food was tasty and quick but despite being served big portions I was still really hungry. Had to eat a second dinner in the end. The decor and ambience was standard, a bit 'Tenko' (older folks will know what I mean).

Awful service!!!! Took an hour longer to deliver than they quoted and was told the website gave the wrong time and not to order through them …. Ridiculous

Me and my brother drove there, when we walked in it STUNK of sewage & drains. It was awful. We sat down & got given menu’s and we couldn’t stop laughing because the smell was so awful…… the food is pricy as well. We had to leave because we honestly didn’t fancy getting food poisoning to be honest. All in all, it looks lovely on the outside & the inside is lovely. Just don’t breathe in.

Really nice ambience. Excellent value for money

Could be great but needs a lot of improvement. Dim sum was nice and the BBQ pork bun was my favourite but unfortunately the hot & sour ramen was a real disappointment. Sauce really thick and gloopy and quantity over quality. Didn’t taste an awful lot of anything and my wife said it seemed like it was from a packet. So many noodles and not much meat. We left more than half as the portion is too large for the quality of it. I think if we had ordered rice dishes it would have been better but we were both disappointed in our ramen.

If I had eaten all of it, I would be still ill. The frozen and reheated starters would shame the Aldi value range. The depth of flavour is found more in a pot noodle. I touched and tasted a little, stifling my gag reflex. This place is cheap, yes … good? No no no. This is defined as ‘food’ in the broadest sense. Very dish, the same microwaved horror, with noodles or rice

Ordered Prawn dumling Fried Hou Fan noodles with chicken, Tum Yum soup, King Prawns and fried Kalamri with chilli and garlic Everything was very tasty

Just the best, shame I don't live in Luton!!!

I'm going to start by saying this place is extremely cheap with decent portion sizes for the price. HOWEVER in terms of food it is a big hit or miss. Me and my partner have found that the side dishes are not tasty and some tasted old (frozen for a long time perhaps) Laksa on the other hand is pretty good (not the best iv'e had but not bad either). Fried udon noodles are some of the best! I haven't tried anything else so will not comment on that. I do not like the service at this place as it is very biased. When i came here with my family the service was rude and we felt extremely rushed, but whenever i come with my Chinese partner i feel like the ladies are much nicer towards us and me especially. Menu far too big with too little time to order. This place is meh but i suppose there is not much choice in Luton.

Absolutely disgusting food and rude staff everything soggy and stale most likely the leftovers from the night before called the restaurant only to have the phone put down on me. Will never order again and I advise everyone else not to order also.

Had two different ramen and their pork gyoza and all was delicious! Def recommend.

Be carefull, food taste amazing that you can be addicted quickly like I'm :)

Good food with fantastic portions - I would highly recommend the Singapore curry noodles. Hidden gem in Luton with halal Thai food.

It was quiet, just wanted a little dinner and beer with the wife. I'll go back again

I always order the seafood. Sometimes the cashier does not understand English, that sea food is fish. I had to change my review after getting the exact opposite of what I ordered. Today the waitress specifically pointed out sea food Ramon picture and I said yes and no pork. What did I get. Pork. Waitress goes I changed my mind. I said I would never change my mind as I'm Muslim. I cannot fathom how you would get an order completely incorrect.

Hi All, My friend and I decided to have a veggie ramen in this place. It was a last-minute thing as the restaurants closed at 11 pm on Sunday night. The ramen was perfect. My friend, she had authentic ramen in her first lifetime, and we both loved it! It was the first time for both of us to eat in. In Luton Town, it's rare to find such an authentic restaurant like this Chinese restaurant. The staff are very kind, friendly and professional. If you are looking for an authentic Chinese restaurant, then it's your place! I would highly recommend trying the whole menu because the food is excellent! Keep up the fantastic work, Guys! Well done 👏 and see you soon! 😊👏

Very good ramen noodles. Huge bowl of noodles with all of the ingredients. Very tasty. We shared a number of dim sum sides with it. We both really enjoyed it.

Good food, good ambience. Pretty extensive menu. Some people in our party found the food bland, others loved it. Overall pretty good! Would visit again if in Luton. Portions are pretty big. Reasonably priced.

The place was very clean and pleasant and the food was delicious. Great customer service by Bokeh. Will highly recommend this place.

Cosy restaurant, fast service, variety of meals on offer and portions/taste is good. Will come again whenever we shop in Luton.

Local, affordable and wonderful service. Loved their fried rice, black been beef , fried rice. Food was fresh and pretty good. I will definitely recommend them 👌 👍 😊

It was a nice little space for dining in. The was so plisante man which is serving the food came like 3 times to check if everything is OK. Also, nice opportunity if you pay by cash you have 10% off! The 4 stars for the atmosphere were because it was a bit smelly when you enter .

A cosy and intimate restaurant that serves good quality authentic Asian food

The first time here, and we were very impressed with the choice of dishes and the quality and taste of the food. Servic was very good and excellent value for money. Very quiet in the restaurant at lunch time but a nice feel.about the place.

Great food, great value, Great staff.

Amazing, just amazing. Every time we come here, we are reminded just how good this place this. 100% recommended, crispy shredded beef is 11/10!

Staff were so friendly and nice. Food arrived quick and piping hot. Ordered the spring rolls (small and not a lot of filling), vegetable gyoza (okay), chilli tempura squid (nice and good portion), beef egg fried rice (nice and big portion), beef laksa noodle (huge and very flavoursome and filling). Curry sauce was also nice. Portions and prices are good.

Come here with family for a lovely dinner. Really good food and excellent service. Would recommend to all!

Excellent service, amazing food, everything was great. Staff were very friendly and attentive, a must visit.

Delicious ramen! Extremely kind staff!

Such an amazing place with a fantastic range of dishes at very reasonable prices. I had a laksa and some dumplings and it was all delicious. The service was amazing. Super polite and friendly guy that served me. Definitely will go back.

Found ourselves staying in the Premier Inn Luton Airport. Googled Restaurants and this place came up. Read the mixed reviews but decided to give it a go. Well glad we did 🙏 We had a warm welcome from the charming young man called Krai. Look after us well and was very friendly and helpful. Wami Remen special noodles and Ho Fun noodles and green tea Both were very hot and delicious. If you live in the area it worth giving them a try 👍🏼

We really enjoyed our visit, the food tasted great and great presentation. The staff were very attentive to our needs. 10/10

Delicious food, served quickly. I was a bit worried about whether the waitress would remember all the orders, as she didn't take any notes, but she did remember everything. I think they could take notes of the orders to help them remember. Aside from that, I loved my time there and thoroughly enjoyed the food. Definitely going again in future. The atmosphere is spot-on; so pleasant and immersive. I felt like I stepped into another dimension when I went inside. Loved the aura and atmosphere!

The worst food I ever had. The taste of the same dirty oil through everything. Eight pound for a chow mein and it was so greasy after one taste I feel like I have lipgloss on.

Amazing food and best service I've ever encounter! Will definitely come back more often!!!

Amazing food and really good service!

Just enjoyed a gorgeous dinner here with my Mum & daughter. Customer service is Amazing, staff are incredibly friendly and welcoming. Fantastic food, really tasty and enjoyed every bite. I will definitely return

Friendly service, and great selections on the menu. Food came quickly, and tasty. The soup noodles are perfect for lunch. 💕

What a lovely surprise. Food is top notch. And the staff are really friendly. Nothing was too much trouble. This trip is the first of many. 10/10

Wanted to try Ramen for a very long time and finally went to this place. Such a great experience. Great food and definitely will visit again. Thanks to Krai for exceptional customer service.

It was an awesome experience.We tried Ramen for the first time and it was Soo good. And The service of Krai was mind blowing. Will visit again. Thank you.

I love coming to this restaurant the atmosphere when you walk in is amazing, the staff are very friendly and welcoming. The food comes quick and it always tastes fantastic! Best thing to happen in Luton

Tasty fotos and friendly staff, we will come again

We booked the karaoke room which was so much fun! The food was delicious and the staff were so friendly. We will definitely be coming back.

Starter of prawn toast, spring rolls, chicken satay and spare ribs a greasy oily mess. Chicken Kung Po and Singapore noodles good though. So 3/5 for food. Arrived 20mins early (Monday night Premier Inn Luton Airport).

Amazing tasty and great value! I had the noodle soup and was blown away by the creamy and spiciness of the dish. Think of this as your local and wholesome asian restaurant, nothing fancy but really soulful.

One of the best Chinese I’ve ever had and I eat a lot of Chinese everywhere when I travel. Food is delicious and tasty, I had the salt and chilli chips, kung Po chicken and BBQ ribs, I’ll definitely be going back.

Tried this place for the first time, food was tasty but couldnt eat much of the duck I bought as it was full of shattered bones.

We eat a lot , good place , near the hotel and good service, food was awesome , I did not pay yet , but for the prices should be cheap . Thank you

Do not use - ordered from Deliveroo and stated 55 mins to delivery. Despatched after 45 mins, 45 mins later and the food is still not here. The restaurant is 15 mins away. Restaurant does not answer the phone, despite multiple calls

Very nice Guinness and the best roast lamb and beef soup with the chips

Quick service and amazing food. The curry is not too spicy and the Japanese tofu tastes great.

Enjoy lovely crispy noddle I love the restaurant and music Miss my home food want to try more dishes the ice milk tea very nice.

Ordered through just eat. Vermicelli soup...greasy and disgusting. Tried to call the restaurant and no answer for literally 30 minutes before I gave up trying - this was at 3pm...hardly prime time. Will never order from here again. I wish I could upload a video of the manky greasy "soup" just slowly dripping of my spoon like 10 day old Chinese. Which I think is what this was

Food was lovely. Highly recommend...

Went there to enjoy a Chinese dish and found that the restaurant provided its extraordinary food that made me totally satisfied.

Overpriced, no flavour and small potions.

Quite some reviews are saying that is not the best Chinese restaurant in the area. First, this is a Hong Kong style restaurant, a.k.a. Cha Charn Teng, definitely NOT a Chinese restaurant. Second, this is definitely one of the best cha charn teng in the area. The lamb noodles is unbeatable. People won’t understand how difficult it is to prepare Hong Kong style lamb brisket. Truly authentic!

Someone made a fraudulent order on my Justeat account. I called the restaurant to let them know as i live over 75 miles away so they could cancel and not waste the food and said they would call me back after speaking to the manager. After a while I get a notification to say the food is on it's way so tried calling the restaurant and they ignored my calls. Unsurprisingly they answered when I rang from another number. They said they had to proceed or else would have been in trouble with Justeat however their actions meant that Justeat would not refund me as the food had been delivered by the time I got I touch with them but I had contacted the restaurant 5 mins after the order was made. So thank you for losing me £55 for not listening to me when I said the order was fraud cause now Justeat will not refund me!

The food was so bad, I only ate a few mouthfuls. Such a shame and waste of money.

I keep reading this place is one of, if not, the best Chinese restaurant in Luton. Let me tell you, it isn't even the best in LU1. Awful food. Really bad quality, bland, greasy and mostly supermarket bought. Also the place has a really bad, damp smell. I totally understand why this place was empty.

I love the place, it's the best place for ramen & dim sum for miles around. 1st time back in about 3 years and I'm afraid I'm removing a star, it smells of blocked drains in there, in fact we almost left. The service was terrible and the food quality isn't quite as good as it was. Don't get me wrong, it was still nice, whereas before I'd have said it was really good. Disappointed

One of the best Chinese is I’ve had but definitely the best in Luton!

Service is excellent and waiting time is very less Nice people, I love this place

One of the best Chinese meals I have ever had , fresh hot and tasty , worth every penny , highly recommended and wonderful friendly staff , I’m trying to find fault but I can’t

Authentic food, pleasant staff, and reasonable pricing

Best takeaway in Luton and surrounding areas! Never disappoints!

Actually devastated to leave this review. We order from here all the time. Asked my children on the way home what they wanted as a take away- they both immediately said Japanese. Ordered at 7.30. I have a 4 year old and 9 year old....

Delicious food cooked to perfection. Beautiful decor, nice and clean, spacious and comfortable. The food was presented beautifully. Attentive staff. We thoroughly enjoyed our experience. Would recommend Wamimichi noodle bar.

I visited today with my family for lunch. There was ample seating available and the food was served quickly. The flavours were on point and I was able to try out some dishes that were new to me. The member of staff was very helpful and polite. I'd like to visit again in the near future!

I ordered through JustEat and ramen was simply awful. Avoid ramen at all cost!!!

Apparently the information captured on their website doesn’t print out on the ticket so they ended up delivering food over an hour too early when I wasn’t even at home. They sent out a replacement at the right time and took the old one back....

Ordered through just eat. The food was bland with a thick layer or oil on top of the soup. 6 hours later and I started to be violantly sick! Something tasted off and the noodles weren't noodles but Italian spaghetti pasta and clumped together. No reply from them on calling.

I was so excited to visit here as this is one of the very few noodle spots in Luton. Sadly it was a major letdown. The dish that I received was 75% fat, the noodles weren’t fully cooked and it was super bland. Will give it another go but wasn’t a great first trip.

Super friendly staff and amazing laksa! 🤤

Always one to try a different Chinese restaurant, I was pleasantly surprised by the enormous selection available from their very comprehensive menu. And at only £34 for the two of us, to include soup, duck, two starters and sweet and sour king prawns with rice, it proved to be excellent value for money for an extremely delicious dinner. And with very friendly staff, it turned out to be an unexpected delight all round; and plenty of adjacent parking, too!

Amazing staff. Great food very tasty. I recommend you come here.

I had the Japanese fried chicken and sirloin ramen. I’ve never had such nice food. Staff were quick to cook and kind to me. If I lived in the local area I would go there for dinner every night. 10/10

The hospitality was amazing! The staff are real nice. Food was decent as well.

This is worst Chinese food I ever eat .waste of money , please the food was rock hard , frozen no flavour.

I ordered some chicken, noodles soup and vegetable soup. The food tasted bland. The chicken was boiled instead of fried. The delivery man came late which was even worst. Hated the food and won’t be ordering again!
