Dining Solo? Wagamama near Harvard is perfect!

by merryweather65

As a single woman who occasionally dines alone, Wagamama is a great spot for a good meal and glass of wine. I?ve struggled to find a restaurant where I don?t feel intimated eating by myself. The Wagamama Staff were friendly without being too intrusive. The nice thing about Wagamama is that they have an actual bar along the window-- perfect for sitting and people watching.

In terms of the food, I would describe my meal as healthy and eclectic (I ordered the fish salad). I can?t actually pronounce most of the dishes on the menu, but if you are in the mood for rice, noodles, soup, or salad this is where to go! The waiter was helpful and thoroughly explained what my dish would contain. I?ve heard Wagamama is known for making necessary food modifications for people with allergies, diabetes, etc. They also have an unusual chocolate plum cake on the dessert menu which I can see becoming addictive!

• Pros: Friendly Waitstaff, Healthy Dining, Reasonable Prices
• Cons: A bit hard to find--on 2nd floor

Great tasting Asian food

by livestoeat

My friends and I (all vegetarians) exhausted all the veggie options in their menu, and honestly found all the dishes to be very tasty. The ginger cheesecake was also very good. All of us were happy with the food. The service was efficient and friendly. And it is economical too. I see myself frequenting this place in the future.

• Pros: Food, service, cost, close to public transportation
• Cons: parking

Great Spot for Lunch or Dinner in Harvard Square

by alakate

Fast & fresh is the theme here. I had a great yaki soba with a fresh squeezed apple juice for lunch. Inexpensive and delicious.

• Pros: Fast service, vegetarian options
• Cons: parking
