wagamama edinburgh lothian road is a casual pan-Asian restaurant at 1 Castle Terrace. Close to theatres, offices and the western edge of the Old Town, it offers an efficient bench-style setting for lunch, dinner and group meals.
Freshly cooked noodles, rice dishes, ramen and curries form the core of the menu. Crisp sides, salads and familiar favourites such as katsu curry allow diners to build anything from a quick bowl to a broader shared selection.
Plant-based dishes and a dedicated non-gluten menu provide useful alternatives, while children have their own menu. Groups of four or more can book a bench, and click and collect adds flexibility for diners who are not staying in the restaurant.
A lift assists access to the dining area, and facilities include Wi-Fi, baby changing, Braille menus, induction loops and magnifying sheets. Guests with allergies should review the latest allergen guide and ask a team member about any recipe modifications before ordering.
Address: 1 Castle Terrace, Edinburgh EH1 2DP, Scotland
