wagamama midtown, new york

“Absolutely loved Wagamama for its Asian fusion restaurant. They recently put out a new bar menu with a wonderful lychee martini and I can only imagine how great all the other drinks taste came here during restaurant week and was greeted by a lovely hostess and server and Freda that atmosphere was wonderful as we had by the bar seating . The food was lovely straight. I was able to help me make a substitution for my pork allergy. which you made me feel welcomed on a cold winter day the chicken gyoza Ramen hit the spot with the crispy rice as my appetizer and a nice Yuzu to wash it all down. It was a wonderful experience. And although unfortunately, this time there was no banana Katsu I will be back.”

“I thought this place was really good! I've been wanting to try like a Asian inspired restraunt and this checked the box. We had reservations at 6 but we came early and not many people were there so we got seated right away. The servers were nice and very quick. I liked the vibe of this place. It was modern and clean. They had ramen, bowls, noodles, rice, and so many drinks to choose from. I got the spicy salmon noodle bowl snd it was delicious and not to heavy. The bang bang cauliflower was very flavorful and a little spicy to. The Tokyo fries were ingesting but crunchy and flavored nicely.”

“Surprised to find this evolved Wagamama in midtown NYC compared to the simpler noodle bar I first tried in London over a decade ago. This place has a more extensive menu and table service. We were a party of 2 and tried the pork gyoza, the tuna tataki and the bang bang cauliflower from the shareables menu. Of these 3 dishes we enjoyed the last one the best. The other 2 were good but not outstanding. We also ordered the chicken mandarin salad which we found very good. Lastly we had the grilled duck ramen. This was good but not comparable to ramen from the great ramen shops in the city. Overall, the restaurant serves good Asian fusion food, the service is friendly and attentive, and the atmosphere is lively and festive for a Saturday evening.”
