Edamame with chilli and garlic salt
Chicken gyoza
Then for main my favourite is the Kare Borosu ramen (udon noodles in a curried broth with tofu and mushrooms 😍) or the chilli chicken/beef ramen. I also like the Raisukaree and Shiok chicken.
Katsu curry is also a classic!

Chili chicken ramen or katsu curry
I think it has gone downhill though. Went last month not having been for five or six years and it was nowhere near as nice as I remembered.

CaptainGT · 25/03/2022 15:26

Yaki Soba!

Soffit · 25/03/2022 15:28

The menu has reached a lowpoint. The vegan dishes may be 'woke' but the Japanese would honestly just laugh at some of them e.g vegan short rib. I always have the yasai katsu but I only go along to be sociable, not to discover great food. I make the same katsu at home and it's waay better (but credit to them for introducing it to me).

Soffit · 25/03/2022 15:29

Oh yes, Gaz and his vegan boiled egg Hmm

hotchocdrinker · 25/03/2022 15:30

Chicken gyoza, and then teriyaki chicken donburi or chicken katsu curry (but I do a cheat's version at home so don't have it so much when I'm out!)

Purpleavocado · 25/03/2022 15:32

I like most things that aren't ramen - I find the ramen really bland.
Ginger Chicken Udon
Pad Thai chicken and prawn
Raisukaree chicken or prawn
firecraker chicken or prawn
Chicken Katsu curry

Katsu chicken

musicviking1 · 25/03/2022 15:45

I love spicy food so I alway go for chicken or tofu firecracker curry, I also really like the chilli squid. My husband goes for the pad thai.

NightmareSlashDelightful · 25/03/2022 15:46

Prawn gyozas are quite nice. Then either prawn raisukaree or yaki udon.

NightmareSlashDelightful · 25/03/2022 15:46

But Wagas isn't what it used to be, everything's pretty bland now.

Elzbells · 25/03/2022 15:53

I always have the duck donburi and a side of prawn gyoza

FrenchFancie · 25/03/2022 15:55

Chicken katsu curry
Yaki soba - either chicken or yasi yaki soba which is veggie if I recall.
Have had the ramen bowls and find them a bit hit and Miss…

Nopetryagain · 25/03/2022 15:58

Starter - I like the duck gyozas and the beef bao buns

Mains - firecracker chicken or ginger chicken udon

Dessert - nah their desserts are rubbish

babybunny123 · 25/03/2022 15:58

Firecracker Chicken and Veg Gyoza.

Barrawarra · 25/03/2022 15:59

Kare burosu ramen. The mushrooms are delicious, broth flavoursome and the chillis are cleansing.

Pinchofnom · 25/03/2022 16:03

Love a waga’s too. I usually go for the teriyaki beef donburri (with fresh chilli added) or the firecracker chicken. We normally have some apps too, the dim sum is good.

mrstea301 · 25/03/2022 16:03

Firecracker chicken, yaki soba, chilli chicken ramen, the steamed buns are nice, and gyoza. Bang bang cauliflower and wok fried greens are nice too!

piefacedClique · 25/03/2022 16:03

Duck donburi…. Which is like crispy duck pancakes but will rice! Chilli squid, Evie’s katsu, duck gyoza and a Buddha beer! 🤤🤤🤤

ranoutofquinoaandprosecco · 25/03/2022 16:06

Ginger chicken udon noodles without coriander! The squid and crispy duck gyozas.

Gentlemanwiththistledownhair · 25/03/2022 16:06

Always salted edamame to start then ginger chicken udon. I have been known to ask nicely for extra ginger, I love pickled ginger

IEatChocolateForBreakfast · 25/03/2022 16:06

I can't stand wagamamas and have found everything I've had there too be incredibly bland and disappointing. I'm completely baffled by how popular it is. Always such a massive queue out the door of our local one. Plus I hate the whole layout of it. Having to cram yourself on an awkward bench next to a bunch of strangers. And everyone's food comes out at different times. I just find it a very unpleasant experience.

dannydyerismydad · 25/03/2022 16:09

Ginger chicken udon. Gyozas.

Plantsandpuddlesuits · 25/03/2022 16:09

Ooo love a wagamamas! Love the bang bang cauliflower, ginger chicken udon, the vegan buns, edamame and green tea to drink

Oblomov22 · 25/03/2022 16:12

I like a few of their starters as a main:
Wok fried greens
Lollipop shrimp
Chilli squid
Bang bang cauliflower
