I visited the Wagamama in the early evening and was a bit wary, having never tried a noodle bar before. The tables are long with seated benches to climb in and out of and you could be seated next to strangers. Fortunately I was in company of 6 and it wasn't too busy at the time.Chopsticks are provided but there are no worries if you aren't competent with them - cutlery is available too! I chose the chicken chilli men which is stir-fried chicken with onions, green and red peppers and mangetout in a sauce served with noodles. A friend had the chilli beef ramen, a chicken soup with grilled sirloin steak on top! It certainly took him some time to eat it all. I found this a very strange concept so obviously I need to get out more!I enjoyed my meal and the prices are reasonable but would probably make a different menu choice if I were to return. We also ordered a sake to drink which is a bit of an acquired taste and sampled the green tea too.I'd definitely like to return and sample more - until then the jury's out!

I really enjoyed my recent and first visit to Wagamama's! I've been hearing about it for years from friends who have kept on syaing 'oh you must go, it's so great' etc etc but a friend finally made me go a few weeks ago. I loved the fact that they brought out your food when it was ready, not waiting for everyone else's. It was fresh, hot and something entirely different to anything i've had recently. I'm generally not a big fan of asian cuisine, but this stuff is so fresh and healthy that whatever you have you will enjoy it. I recommend the gyoza to start, stunning. Also for the veggies out there the Yasai Katsu Curry is lovely.
