    Ordering through the pad was a bit confusing. We accidentally ordered a jar of beer instead of a glass, but the staff said we couldn’t cancel it, even though there were just two adults (my husband and me) and our 10-year-old child. That felt a bit inconsiderate.

    Thank you for your feedback. We're sorry to hear about the confusion with the order. We'll work on making the system clearer and appreciate you bringing this to our attention.

    they didn't have my vegetable ramen dish ,as it's the only thing i can eat as i'm vegetarian, and i love this restaurant ,but apparently they were sold out even though we were the first customers of the day
    WAGAYA Japanese RestaurantResponded on 10 January 2025
    Thank you for your feedback. We sincerely apologize for not having the vegetable ramen available during your visit. Unfortunately, one of the essential ingredients is temporarily unavailable from our supplier. Rest assured, we’ll restock it as soon as we receive it. We truly appreciate your understanding.
