Right now, Wagamama’s owners are warning customers about supply-chain-and-labour-related price increases on its menus, but that’s not stopping the U.K.-based Asian restaurant chain from expanding to Florida.
Today, Wagamama said it’ll open its first Sunshine State location at Water Street in downtown Tampa. Its 4,200-square-foot restaurant will be 1050 Water St. and join other U.S. Wagamama location in New York City and Boston. It hopes to open in early 2022, according to a press release.
“Noodle dishes, ramens, shareables and craft cocktails” are all set to be on the menu, which Wagamama has also pledged to make 50% plant-based by the time it opens in Tampa.(Wagamama's pledge to go 50% plant-based by October only applies in the U.K.)
