The opening date for a huge new restaurant has been revealed.

Wagamama is set to open in St Enoch Centre on Monday, February 19.

The new 130-seater restaurant will create 57 new jobs in the city centre.

It is the fourth location in the city for the pan-Asian chain which now operates 161 restaurants across the UK.

Milly Pearson, wagamama regional marketing manager for the North, said she was "so excited" to open the doors of the new Glasgow location.

She added: "St Enoch Square has become the beating heart of the city.

"We can’t wait to open up our benches to the local community and visitors to the shopping destination with our newest menu launch and fresh favourites.

"Our fantastic new team has been working hard to ensure we’ll bring our much-loved wagamama experience to our guests and they’re so excited to land in their beautiful new restaurant once work is complete.”

The new opening will give diners the chance to test out the chain's recently launched Korean-inspired menu.

Dishes include wagamama's first-ever hot pots, k-dogs, gochujang rice bowls and fresh new sides like rotis with raisukatsu dipping sauce.

The restaurant prides itself in having half of the menu dedicated to plant-based items which will be served alongside favourites like chicken katsu at the new location.

A spokesperson for the restaurant said: "wagamama’s mission is to spread positivity from bowl to soul, a philosophy rooted in the belief that food doesn’t just feed our bellies, but our souls too."

Ahead of the opening date, the restaurant will be running two days of exclusive preview events allowing locals to book in for a meal on wagamama to celebrate. Keep an eye on their web pages for the ticket release.

The new location is located next to the Vue cinema inside St Enoch Shopping Centre.
