They tasted nothing like they should and they seemed like they were frozen and reheated. When i asked about it, I was told that they were crispy gyoza, even though on the menu there was a photo of steamed duck gyoza, so it was misleading. Anyways, the chili squid was still good.

Not a problem at all. I work in hospitality so I’m pretty understanding of such things When the order was taken all seemed well, asked for extra water as we had finished what was given to us when we arrived, the next glasses that come out the water is lukewarm! Not great especially on a hot day. They did add ice to cool it down but not the point really, it’s all about the little touches which really help shape the dining experience Food starts to come out as it does in dribs and drabs from the kitchen, no issue with this as I know this is how Wagamamas operates. We’ve had 2 starters and my daughters mains and still no sign of my dish! My daughter has finished hers and mine eventually comes out around 20 minutes later I order the salmon soba noodles as it’s my favourite dish, I literally love it and try to change my choice each time but keep coming back to it Well when it arrived I was totally underwhelmed! I honestly think the fish took so long as they were defrosting it, either that or they need to get a fresh delivery of salmon! Lukewarm fish and the noodles barely any heat there either! Considering it should have been in a wok a few minutes before serving I would have expected much more steam and even flavour I usually dine at the Trowbridge Wagamamas and I have never experienced this sub standard level of food! This is the 3rd time I have eaten in the Bath restaurant and I can safely say each time something has not been right with the food compared to my experiences elsewhere especially the Trowbridge branch I told a waitress and she was apologetic and did offer to have it made for me again, however after a bite of the salmon and noodles I had totally lost my appetite so just asked for it to be removed from my bill I work in hospitality and I seldom complain unless something is really bothering me!My daughter was surprised at my reaction as I am usually tucking straight into the salmon when it arrives, this time however it was not a happy dance food arriving moment and the salmon looked a sorry sight The reason for this review is that because it’s the Bath restaurant I know they will just continue to get customers and will probably not really take this on board I told the waitress to not bring it up with the chef incase he got offended and it’s not something I wanted her to have to deal with the fall out of, so hopefully this review will be enough for the kitchen to maybe take a little extra care over cooking the food as I work in a restaurant myself and I know what cooked salmon looks like and unfortunately it wasn’t what I’m used too I shall not return to the Bath restaurant but will continue to use other branches as I love their food and ethos.

They offer an extensive vegan menu filled with a variety of intriguing options, and they continually introduce new items! The staff is always accommodating and friendly as well. I tried the vegan ramen, and it was one of the best I've experienced—spicy with an incredible array of toppings! I also sampled the vegan squid made from mushrooms, which were delightful and unlike anything else I've had since becoming vegan; definitely a 10/10! One of my all-time favorites here is the vegan bao buns; they are light, fluffy, and packed with a delicious filling and great texture! The only dish I haven't enjoyed is the vegan gyozas, which I found dry and somewhat grassy; I wouldn't order them again. Overall, I absolutely love Wagamama as a vegan, and it remains my top choice among vegan chain restaurants!
