The food continues to be outstanding. Giovanni, our waiter, was/is exceptional. He is personable and truly shows he cares for his 'clients'. We will continue to come back and will ask to have Giovanni.

Our lunch today wasn’t up to Wagamamas usual standards. There were too few servers waiting on tables—not our server’s fault. In his haste, he forgot a drink completely. One if our party’s food was overly salty. We sent it back and it was re-made. Overall, we thought our experience wasn’t great.:(

The food was good, but service was terrible. Waiter couldn’t remember what we ordered and had to come back 3 or 4 times to ask…so needless to say we got the wrong things AND it took a LONG time. That, coupled with the fact that and I was overcharged by $25 and couldn’t even get a receipt (the printer in the little computer wasn’t working). I thought I was paying ~ $70 for the 3 of us (for appetizers) but today a $95 charge showed up on my card 😡

Food was delicious! Our server was super friendly and knowledgeable about the menu. We sat in a booth and the noise level was not too loud. We could have a conversation and not feel like we had to raise our voices.

We had less than an hour before our show at Amalie so we were limited on time! The waiter understood the urgency and was very attentive to our needs. He had some great suggestions for us and the food was really good! I only wish the cocktails were a bit bigger but my lychee martini was very good and so were the rest of my tables beverages! We will be back!

Hostess was very nice and pleasant. Food was okay on taste but not a good value for the price. Server was nice , but kitchen and bar were slow. I didn’t get my drink until the later part of the meal.

The food appetizer was delivered with one of our entrees. The second entree came 5 minutes later. The food was bland, had “crispy” chicken that was soggy. The service was so-so. Won’t be back.

Had one of the best experiences! We did the taste of Wagamama and it was 10/10. Have already recommended this to so many people. I’m curious if it’s a permanent option on the menu or just a seasonal one though!
