Lychee refresher
Jazlene T.

Yummy but expensive. In total, I spent about 40 pounds on my meal plus drink. Service was quite good, you walk up to the host and she brings you to a booth or table. I sat at a table neighboring others so it was a bit awkward, I should've told her I prefer the bar. My food came out in around 15 mins. I was recommended to get the noodles and I liked it but wish it had spice or more flavor in general. Minus one star for that. Otherwise, drink was good and pretty strong. I would come back to try their appetizers and other bites next time I'm in the UK.

Grilled chicken ramen
Katherina F.

Before flying home, we decided to stop at Wagamama because we were craving something warm -- ramen sounded perfect! The service was smooth: they seat you, take your order, and you can pay either with your server or easily online using the QR code on the menu. I also liked that you can leave a tip directly by card. I ordered a ginger mojito, which was refreshing, while my husband had a red wine -- it was fine. We shared a grilled chicken ramen, which was fantastic -- loved the flavorful broth and great noodle texture. We also tried the chicken teriyaki with rice; it was okay but a bit plain, could use a bit more zest or sourness. It did come with a small side of kimchi. Overall, a nice and easy dining experience with plenty of seating. You share a long table with others, but there's enough space to feel comfortable. A great spot for some warm comfort food before your flight at Heathrow Airport.

If all I ordered was the Chashu Ramen, this would have been a 5-star review. Surprisingly, this was notably one of the best ramen I've had. The broth just right, not too salty and not too greasy. The noodles had a nice chew to them and were cooked just right. Most memorable were the nicely charred pork belly! It was boldly seasoned and had the perfect charred taste! I loved how the ramen came with bamboo shoots and fresh pea sprouts! The soy sauce egg was very flavorful as well. It was a beautiful bowl of ramen that tasted absolutely delicious! My eyes were hungry when I was looking at the massive menu, so I made the mistake of over-ordering. I ordered the Bang Bang Cauliflower and the Chicken and Shrimp Pad Thai. The cauliflower was a bit too mushy, as was the Pad Thai noodles. The flavors were there, but I did not care for the texture. The restaurant was busy, but service was relatively quick. My server was friendly and took good care of me. I do not like Heathrow Airport and honestly would only consider a connection flight there only so I could eat at Wagamama again!

I'm a Wagamama fan generally so when I saw this at Terminal 5 I knew I had to go. It is standard Wagamama fare which is quite unusual for an airport restaurant. Everything was the quality you'd expect. I got the donburi rice bowl and loved it. I dare say it was some of my favorite airport food I've had after security. Service was quick and this is an excellent choice.

Barbecue pork Ramen
Malikah M.

This was definitely a step up from your average airport cuisine. This place stays packed so give yourself plenty of time to eat. I ordered the Ramen, which was delicious and filling before my very long flight to the US. I had a beautiful view of the planes, landing and taking off and it's a very intimate setting. Though they told you the food would take 15 minutes from the time you ordered it came extremely fast and I was able to eat pay and get all my flight all within 35 minutes.

English Breakfast
Vincent L.

Heathrow has a lot food options but if you want something different than pub and casual dining. Then Wagamama is maybe for you. It is Asian fusion and the decor is comfortable and modern. Prices are a little more but I guess you are paying for the creativity. I haven't try everything on the menu, I need to write an update once I do. I walked by and they have a sign with a picture of their version of Asian fusion English breakfast. Looks good to me. Never had tea egg and sausage for breakfast before. Tea egg is well marinated, sausage is flavorful and not too greasy. Sweet potato is crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside. It was a good meal. While enjoying your meal, you can people watch looking down at terminal 5 lounge. After you are done, you pay on your phone.

Mushroom Bao

The location is big and nice at Terminal 5 but the food definitely fell short this time. The lychee drink tasted just all right. The teppanyaki noodles were also just so-so and the bao buns with the mushrooms were bland. They have changed the menu or the taste of the dishes so we didn't enjoy them as much as earlier. Seating in the main area is very uncomfortable unless you pick a proper table.

Vegan Katsu
Irwan A.

What better place to dine between flights as we were thankful that this was located at Heathrow. Eggs benedict- Spinach & shredded duck made this a perfect breakfast as the juicy richness of the duck paired with the silky hollandaise sauce a top a chinese pancake was enough for the morning flight. Vegan Katsu curry- stopped by again for the return flight and the Katsu curry was not short on flavor or portion size. You would not realize that the "chicken" was vegan. Salmon Gyoza- Original and have innovative to upscale a gyoza with tender salmon. Duck Donburi- a must have as the tender pieces of roast duck a top a bowl of rice accompanied with shredded veggies was great ending to the trip. Great service and attentive staff for an airport that constantly has guest coming though with no break in between services.

Spicy drink
Katia P.

At the airport waiting on a flight home and saw this place. Wait was about 10 minutes. I didn't get a chance to take a ton of pictures but kids had small ramens, they were good but could use a bit more flavor. I had the pad Thai ... it was yummy. Husband had a spicy curry. Super spicy but was the favorite. We had some cool delicious drinks. Overall the ambiance was super cool, staff friendly and food was good. Considering it was airport food, it was a hit

Ginger chicken udon
Kerry G.

I'm usually very critical of anything airport food related, but my first layover in Europe prompted me to write this. On our way to Lisbon, Portugal, the misses and I had a layover in Heathrow. Hungry and exhausted, I scoured the options in T5 as we awaited the announcement of our gate to Lisbon. I stopped by Giraffe for a smoothie first, which was beyond disappointing to say the least. There was a line at Wagamama but the two of us were quickly seated and given great seats with ample room for our bags and a great view. The restaurant is very modern and open with a fantastic looking bar and basic Japanese beers on tap. Everyone was working hard on the floor and in the kitchen. Our waiter Venky greeted us and my lady ordered the ramen she wanted (pork belly ramen), and we got some drinks (the Hifive and I got their new matcha+strawberry latte) which both hit the spot. It was nice to see some non alcoholic healthy options. The ginger chicken udon was bomb and refreshing (if you like lots of onions and ginger, which I do) and the ramen was good from what I tried and the misses loved it; both came out in a timely manner and I was really surprised. Also: highly recommend the mushroom Bao! Overall, I soon forgot I was eating in an airport and that, for me, speaks volumes and is hard to do from my often judgmental perspective. I already can't wait to stop by here again next time I have a layover in Heathrow, or just decide to visit London in general. Thanks y'all for a great experience!

This Resteraunt is in a great location. Easy to find using the postcode and sat nav. Easy parking…read moreand more to the rear of the property as well. The inside transforms you to the East. Very well laid out and looks fairly new too. Lots of statues wood carvings etc. Even a few ponds and a mini bridge. The lighting level is low and really sets the scene. The pay one price and eat what you like is better than most in so much there is a large choice and the food is delivered to your table The food taste was great and although the food didn't always come out at the same time it was worth it The waiters try to double up portions and are quite strict what they will or will not do and at times can be quite rude. In fact they are a riot and very rude Drinks are extra. Good selection We ate as a large family group on a Sunday lunch time It was a good Resteraunt as far as the decor and food choice and quality was concerned. The big down side was the staff. Abrupt. No interpersonal skills. No interaction. My recommendation would be either change the staff or go self serve I wouldn't return

First time at this restaurant. Did not know beforehand that it was a fixed price, all-you-can-eat…read morestyle restaurant. The decor is charming and the food is very tasty. The restaurant has set menus if you don't want to have to think for yourself and you are happy to let the restaurant choose the meal for you. If you want to entertain a small group of friends, this would be an excellent venue. You will not leave this restaurant feeling hungry.

Fast Heathrow Japanese meal option…read more Sushi was edible, and better than I expected for airport take away. It's like drug store sushi, actually[1]. Ha! Itsu offers coffee (I got some) and they also have these amazing bottled waters - get their peach and lychee flavor! Chef's kiss. Credit accepted. Prices are high (you're in an airport) but not outrageous. Looking for power? There's a few charging tables nearby with a variety of outlets. Next time I'm at LHR, I'll be back for a fancy bottled water. [1] Anyone remember when drug stores in NYC offered sushi? Do they still do that?

Fast food Japanese food in LHR Airport to consider if you're in a hurry ...or just feel like eating…read moresomething with rice as compared to potatoes or bread! (Especially like a person from Hawaii like me!) Flew threw LHR several times over the past few years and first noticed this place in 2019. If there is a line, it isn't very long and moves fast. Got places to sit down and have some charging ports . Food selection is somewhat limited with salmon Inari or Maki style sushi, got some salads, or if you want something hot, got won ton or chicken bowls and a few other things. I find it convenient since it is right next to a sitting area if you have to make a connection but your flight gate # has not yet been announced. Unlike some of the worn, high volume, highly used ports that may not work in (free) sitting area outside, so far all the ports and outlets have worked in the dining area here! So a place that I've come to stop by almost every time for a quick bite to eat at LHR!
