What Hector Song likes about Wagamama (Lothian Road):
The staff at this restaurant is very friendly. The ambiance is wonderful, and I enjoy the slightly lively buzz. The flavor of the food, typical of Japanese cuisine, is delicate and not overpowering. While it may be a departure from traditional Japanese dishes, the taste is still delicious. View all feedback.

The best thing about this place for us was that they stay open late! Rare in the center of Edinburgh!!! What not so great is that they don't have many
