If you've got Asian fusion on the mind, you're in luck: Wagamama has opened a new location at 100 W. 55th St. in Midtown.
The U.K.-based chain has been making inroads in the U.S. market, planning a nationwide expansion beyond its current footprint in Boston and New York. This new, nearly 7,000-square-foot restaurant is Wagamama's third in NYC (it has two other locations in Murray Hill and the Flatiron District).
The new Wagamama boasts seating for 185 guests and serves the chain's full menu of casual Asian fusion fare. Stop in for small plates like bao buns and gyoza, hearty veggie and rice bowls topped with tuna and tofu, ramen and Japanese-style curries.
Wagamama also offers a full drink list featuring sake and seasonal cocktails (for a non-alcoholic option, there's also a selection of fresh-squeezed juices).
With a 4.5-star rating out of 29 reviews on Yelp so far, Wagamama has been warmly received by patrons.
Terry T., who was among the first Yelpers to review the new spot on Feb. 23, wrote, "Very attentive, friendly, welcoming experience. It makes you want to come back again."
Yelper Antonia C. noted, "There is nothing I tried that wasn't delicious."
