Is Wagamama legit?

Legit, mixed reviews

Wagamama is a genuine restaurant chain serving Asian-inspired noodle and rice dishes in the UK and abroad, though what reaches the table does not always match what you asked for. That matters most with allergies, because an ingredient you flagged when ordering can still turn up in the dish in front of you.

What we checked

  • Head office in London
  • Registered company, still active
  • Ratings on other review websites: 2.5/5

Watch out for

  • A dish served with an ingredient you flagged as an allergy when you ordered.
  • A delivery order placed through Uber Eats or Deliveroo that arrives cold or with a dish missing.
  • A card charged twice for one meal, with the second charge still showing days later.

How do I reach Wagamama customer service?

Wagamama publishes no general customer service number, only the direct line of each restaurant, and there is no consumer email address in our data either, so the written routes are the contact form on the Wagamama website and their social media accounts. If something goes wrong during your meal, ask for the duty manager at the table first: most restaurant problems can only be put right while you are still there.

Before you contact anyone, note the branch, the date and time, your table or order number, and keep the receipt. Allergy request that did not reach the kitchen? Start your complaint here and we help you write it in minutes, with the branch, the date, the table number and the exact allergy you declared all set out.

How do I get a refund from Wagamama for a wrong or cold meal?

Raise it before you pay. Ask for the duty manager, show the dish and ask for it to be remade or taken off the bill, because once you have paid and left, the branch has to reopen a closed transaction and that is a much slower route. If you ordered through Deliveroo, Uber Eats or Just Eat, the refund is handled by the delivery platform rather than by Wagamama, so start in that app with photos of what actually arrived.

Dish arrived cold, wrong or with the sides missing? Describe what you ordered, what went wrong and what you paid, and take it through our complaint process: other diners served the same way at that branch can find your case and back it up.

How do I complain about an allergy mistake at Wagamama?

Tell the manager immediately and do not leave without noting the branch, the date and time, the exact dish, and the name of the person who took your order. Ask for the allergen information for the dish you were served: restaurants in the UK have to be able to give you allergen details for everything on the menu, and their answer tells you whether the mistake was in the kitchen or at the table. Photograph the dish and keep the receipt.

An allergen mistake is not only a customer service matter. In the UK you can report it to the environmental health team of the local council for the area where the restaurant is, and elsewhere to the local food safety authority: that is an inspection route the branch cannot ignore. Raise it with us in parallel and we bring the case to the attention of Wagamama ourselves.

Why was I charged twice at Wagamama?

Double charges at a restaurant usually come from one of three things: a card payment that was retried after a terminal error, a pre-authorisation that has not dropped off your statement yet, or an item or service charge added to the bill that you did not order. Check the merchant name next to each amount, because a delivery platform charge and a branch charge look different on a statement.

Ask the branch for the merchant copy of both transactions and give them the date, the time and the last four digits of your card. If the branch cannot produce a second transaction and the money has genuinely left your account, your bank or card issuer can dispute the charge for you.
