Wagamamas???

10 quid for a bowl of noodles and if you are lucky you might find the odd bit of chicken or prawn hiding under a spring onion. What is that all about? Marketing genius or gulliible customers?

I went, had a bowl of mush that was disgusting

My kids love it unfortunately and it costs me a fortune every visit. Mind you, the chilli squid is to die for!

Sounds like an ageing footballers ageing girlfriend/wife.

chilli squid is lovely, and the firecracker prawn is unusually warm for a chain. I've never eaten anything else there so can't comment

All about the katsu curry

And now we can celebrate Wagamama's first goal for the club.

If you want decent Japanese food, go to Kyoto Kitchen in Winchester.

I thought it was a new type of enema.

I think I first went to one in about 1998 or so - was good then, something really different. But since they've expanded, they seemed to have got that bland chain food taste - never bother anymore.

Japanese food? I give you Nobu

Wangamama means selfish is Japanese. Selling cheap Japanese food that anyone can make for rip off prices means they live up to the name. Then let's pretend that everyone in Japan eats on a bench sharing it with a stranger. Absolute bull****. Would never eat there.

I have to agree, the same thing happened to me! Great food first time but then about four years back, it lost its flavour.

All I'm saying is Katsu Curry and Sticky rice. Stuff of the gods!!

At least you get some meat with that. I have had several pad-thais where the chicken and prawns have gone awol. I complained last time and to be fair they refunded the cost of the dish. They have ditched the grilled tuna and lobster salad so that another two favourites gone.

Do I have to? It'd be quicker for me to get to Japan!

Wagamamas isn't bad, can be a bit hiss and miss as with any chain though. I have the Chicken Katsu Curry or Firecracker Chicken usually, but still much prefer Chicken Katsu Donburi at Nobu Old Park Lane or the Chicken Anti-Cucho at Nobu Berkeley Street, it's only a tenner more as well...
