I may have found my Japanese food refuge in Birmingham. (See previous review of another Japanese…read morejoint for clarification). So I came here for lunch on a Wednesday and wanted to try it out to see if it was worth another visit, particularly with the hubs. This place is definitely nice, kind of "bougie" but not intimidating. I like that it's just a Japanese restaurant and not combined with other cuisines. My selection: spider maki (soft-shell crab rolls), and the lunch special of smoked (?) mackerel nigiri. I washed them down with a melon soda that I hadn't had in a loong time. It was tempting to try other sushi, but I have a soft spot for soft-shell crab rolls (say that three times fast). I'll come here again.

Once inside, the place is decorated with an oriental style, and is filled with about 8 large tables that seat around ten people and which surround an area in the middle of each that have a hotplate for the chef to cook. Once there are enough people at a table, they join you with others if there aren't many of you, they take your order and the chef begins to prepare it. As he is right in front of you, you can see exactly what he does. He interacts with everyone at the table and even tosses pieces of fried egg into willing peoples' mouths. The prices of the dishes are reasonable for an upmarket restaurant like this, and the dishes are cooked extremely well with a fascinating 'show' while it's being cooked. This is definitely a place that everyone has to visit at least once.

I've been here with my partner twice - once in early 2020, and just a couple of days ago (August…read more2021). The two visits were very different but both enjoyable in their own ways. The all-you-can-eat style dining was available in 2020 and was a great dining experience - great value for money and every dish was delicious. When I returned just the other day, it seemed as though that style of dining either wasn't available due to the time of day or possibly due to trying to recover from the last year as a business - so we enjoyed a small sushi platter from the a la carte menu. Not as varied, but still great good and fantastic service. Less value for money though, so that is the reason for the four star review.

The house special dragon roll was my favorite, prawn tempura wrapped with eel and tobiko in a nice bbq mayo sauce. The Ten Ichi ramen is the way to go to have it all. Prawn tempura, tasty fried chicken, mushrooms, wakame, naruto and tofu. Only thing missing was the half egg. Noodles were too soft soaking up the tonkatsu broth. The pork katsu ramen was average, egg breaded pork was not as crispy as the fried chicken. Side of vegetable tempura was a nice assortment of delicious veggies. Overall it was a pleasant experience in a comfortable setting. Great date spot with something for everyone.

I am a big BIG fan of wagamamas and this one was where I made my debut, when it first opened with…read morethe bull ring way back years and years ago. For those that haven't been, there are some quirks. For instance there is the bench system which makes the place more communal, the standard practice of bringing food as it comes (which can on occasion mean mains before starters or sides arrive) and also the chopsticks provided to eat (cutlery available). Wagamama is very popular restaurant. i always manage to get some good seats overtime i go in. the staff are very freindly and cheerful. The food was of good quality. Overall a great place for freinds to meet and have a bite to eat and a natter, a nice environment, lovely food but for glorified Asian fast food chain, it doesn't hurt the wallet.

I was a little disappointed with my iced green tea-it was barely cold and didn't taste of much, but I'll just choose differently next time. The staff were lovely -even though I had to send my bill back as they'd forgotten the discount. I can forgive them:)
