Quick info
About wagamama reading
wagamama reading is a restaurant in Reading, set by the river bank inside the Oracle shopping centre complex on Bridge St. The menu centres on noodle soup and ramen, with a seafood ramen among the bowls, and hot Katsu for those who want something other than broth. Spicy corn and eggs is on the menu as a side. Vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free and dairy-free choices are part of the range, so mixed groups can order from the same menu. A lunch deal is offered for a midday meal.

Customer Review Summary
Diners most often praise the ramen, with the seafood ramen and a noodle soup singled out, and close behind come the spicy corn, the hot Katsu and the eggs. Reviewers repeatedly describe the food as delicious and full of flavour, and several mention good vegetarian, vegan and gluten free and dairy free choices. Service draws steady praise, with servers who gave menu recommendations, helped a first-time Japanese diner and were friendly with kids. The recurring caveat is pace and polish: one reviewer had to ask several times for utensils and remind servers of the order, another waited a while at the lunch rush in a loud room, and one expected the Asian-inspired music to better match the atmosphere. Others say food arrived fast even on a Saturday afternoon. One reviewer calls the lunch deal great value, and a family visit ended with a recommendation for the whole family.

“Really enjoyed the food here. Everything was fresh and full of flavour, especially the seafood ramen and spicy corn. Good portions and a nice atmosphere. Would definitely come back!”

“The food was amazing! Wagamama’s never disappoints. I got the lunch deal which was great value for money. It did take a while to get our food due to lunch time rush and it was rather loud in the restaurant. But still had a great time”
- Sophia smith
“I love a good meal here! I have been here many times and other establishments across the uk and this one is always my favourite. I went for a meal last week and my server called Ozzy was amazing. He was very intelligent and guided me through the menu and gave me his own recommendations which were delicious!! He was very good at checking on us throughout our visit and i cannot fault his service! If i could give an extra star it would be for him! Food is delicious and not badly priced either!”
