The food was sooooo good
Yummmmm
We ordered teriyaki chicken bento, spicy chicken reman, and fried tofu. The portions were pretty much , I love how they marinated and cooked the chicken ☺️
Lovely food absolutely obsessed with the spicy chilli noodle soup. Service is great lovely servers and staff. Only downside is the amount of time it takes for the food to come. Unfortunately had to wait around 45 minutes for my food. But food is worth it so definitely will be returning.
The place to go when you’re in Leicester. Great quality food, simple but cosy and warming atmosphere. Kindest people providing excellent service.
A hidden gem. It doesn’t even appear in Google search on Ramen around Highcross.
Five stars for this cozy place serving this awesome Ramen. The dishes look great and taste great.
The only downside is the long waiting time for food but totally worth it.
Came again, still tastes really great, wait time still so long.
At lunchtime, I saw that there were not many people here and decided to have in,however, I still had to wait for more than half an hour .
The golden dragon roll and takoyaki were both good and highly recommended.

The food is slow to come out but the wait is worth it. The prices are very affordable and the ramen is only half the cost of Nottingham. It's not authentic Japanese ramen, but the marinated beef in the ramen is really good
One of the most authentic bento boxes I’ve eaten outside of Japan. It was paired with a complementary miso soup and I added the Komé Bīru Japanese Rice Beer which worked perfectly. A real gem of a find in Leicester
Really nice low key dining. Almost like Chinese/Japanese bench dining experience. I can't fault the food or the service, and the prices are very reasonable. Portion size for the mains was larger than I expected, which is always nice when you are a food lover (greedy) 😂
Plenty of choice for starters and mains, but it would be nice to see more dessert options.
Had been meaning to try this place out for some time and my takoyaki addiction needed feeding.
Added a nicely presented bento box and miso soup for a great little lunch.
Lovely little place and I'm sure to return next time I'm in Leicester.
Good Japanese and Korean cuisines in Leicester. Lots of options and fast service. Will visit multiple times to get a better assessment. But the food it worth the visit, atmosphere may need some updat although I like the simple layout. It's a small space so steating can be a bit of issue at times but not a problem. I highly recommend for those into Japanese style of food.
The food was great for the price, especially in the city centre. Would definitely recommend to vegetarians.
Service was attentive. Drinks and food arrived quickly. Only issue was no air-conditioning but not anything to worry about.
Atmosphere and seating uniquely themed. My starter, beautifully crispy king prawns, seasoned to perfection. Main dish of tenpan noodles, dissapointed with how overly greasy it was and tasted, a shame since its other flavours of spring onions, chicken ect was good. Big portion size, good price, sound tea. Would return to try other dishes
Beautiful food! But unfortunately I found the restaurant too bright & a little overwhelming. Apart from this a beautiful and enjoyable experience.
The food is absolutely amazing! Would 100% recommend!
Stunning Japanese restaurant. The food is all cooked to order so you may wait a while when busy but yes well worth it. I am a great lover of Japanese curry, this was just perfect; the pork was in crispy breadcrumbs but perfectly tender with plenty of curry sauce and perfectly cooked rice. The sushi was just spot on, as good as I’ve ever had. Service is friendly and really helpful. I’m very much looking forward to returning and trying one of the incredible looking bento boxes.
Food was amazing, proper authentic Asian food. Large portion sizes, we ordered starters and a main and we were all stuffed. Decent prices too. Service was a little slow but the restaurant was very busy so it was understandable that the servers were a little rushed off their feet. That said, I would definitely recommend this place to others!
Thank you for having us!!
Excellent food, especially those sushi roll
Wakaze is a place I visit as often as I can, and it's good to see that they have gone back to a full menu since the lockdown has eased in Leicester.
There's not many sushi restaurants to pick from in Leicester, and this is the best of them all.
The staff are really friendly and the menu is varied - ranging from sushi to bento boxes as well as a lot of choice for starters.
It's quite a simple place, and I'm sure that's the atmosphere they were going for. It usually has a younger university crowd that goes along, but is welcoming to all people.
The prices are reasonable - usually around £20-£25 each, depending on what you get.
If you like Japanese food, this place is a no brainer. Just go!
Good Japanese and Korean fare, centrally located in Leicester. We tried their volcano roll, chicken miso ramen, and kimchi fried rice. Many options and sharing options. Good for small plates, quick service in a quaint cafe setting.
