Asian-Inspired Restaurant Wagamama To Open In Clarendon

The London-based restaurant chain is expected to open this summer in the old Oz Restaurant & Bar building in Clarendon.

CLARENDON, VA — A London-based restaurant specializing in Asian cuisine plans to open for business in Clarendon this summer.

Wagamama will be located in the old Oz Restaurant & Bar building, which is at 2950 Clarendon Blvd. and will serve an array of fresh, cooked-to-order Asian-inspired bowls, curries, and creative craft cocktails during lunch and dinner services.

“We couldn’t be more excited to open our first location in Northern Virginia and introduce Wagamama to Clarendon and the entire Washington D.C. region. Our modern, pan-Asian cuisine will fit right in with the dynamic international community of the D.C. area," Richard Flaherty, co-chief executive of Wagamama USA, said in a news release.

Inspired by fast-paced, Japanese ramen bars and a celebration of Asian food, Wagamama debuted in London in 1992 — more than 25 years ago.

The restaurant, which hosts a multi-featured dining area and an expansive patio, will open for lunch and dinner daily in Clarendon.

Final menus, operating hours, and design details will be made available closer to opening.

The Restaurant Group (TRG), which owns Wagamama, is also expected to open locations in Atlanta and Tampa in the near future.
