Lovely setting – location is on the waterfront with great views out to Oriental Bay and convenient parking.

Food is scrumptious. The chicken dishes especially. Even the teriyaki chicken, a fairly generic meal, is given that extra something at Wagamama. The use of fresh, tangy ingredients makes all the difference.

Personally I enjoyed the informal dining experience and like the unique set-out of the restaurants (though they could do something with the roof). Staff are always very friendly.

Why not 5 stars? I had the Chicken yakitori come undercooked a couple of times (I don’t order it anymore), and the menu could be more expasnsive. I’ve been here about 4 or 5 times now and I’ve tried everything that is to my liking so I won’t be frequenting as much now.

Been a few times now and loved each experience. Enormous bowls/plates of fresh delicious food at a resonable price. It can get very crowded over lunchtime so I recommend an early or late lunch The entrees change frequently (or the specials do) and each time I’ve been able to try something really different. I love how healthy the food is and all the vegitarian options.

After hearing so much about Wagamamma, I decided to give it a crack over the weekend. I must say that the view is amazing but as for the food the same can not be said.

Ebi Gyoza – overcooked and did not seem to contain anything other than Spinach inside of them. Disappointing. Tempura style chilli fried squid – Again over cooked and disappointing. Following the starters I was then treated to a rather tasteless teriyaki salmon (over cooked again) with enough plain rice to feed a third world country with nothing but soy sauce to flavor! The most appealing thing on the plate was the Bok Choi. Beef Donburi – Veges and noodles were relatively good, however, the steak which had the texture of a ‘chuck’ steak rather than the promised sirloin ruined the dish.


Given the pricing and the staff who feel that discussing their plans for the evening in the loudest possible fashion is acceptable, I will certainly not be returning to this restaurant.

The food was bland, a little under seasoned. The price was quite high for what you got. At such a beautiful location and the high-priced menu I was expecting better tasting food.

Stellar location, great for early dining with kids (they have crayons etc to keep them entertained and a kids menu) – only thing watch out for the mini juices which are very healthy (pressed juice) but quite tart – the apple juice was from a granny smith so might not be your kid’s favourite. Food is what you’d expect from a takeaway, tasty but relatively expensive for what it is, but it’s a good healthy takeaway alternative with a great view.
