    This was our first visit to Wagyuto. Although it's not far from our home, we were completely unaware of it, but luckily stumbled upon it while surfing the internet. And boy are we glad we did. We went there for a combined Valentine's Day/wedding anniversary celebration, and the restaurant exceeded expectations. Great food, brilliant attentive service, lovely ambience, and reasonably priced considering the very high quality. We're definitely going to become regulars.

    A wonderful experience from the moment we arrived to when we left. We felt welcomed, the ordering process was made simple, the food arrived quickly by a friendly waitperson. The food was fresh and extremely tasty. When we went to pay the bill we were asked 'how was everything, did you enjoy your meal?' Again another friendly person. Look forward to returning for another meal and trying different food options.
