Analysis

C=26, B=50, sentiment=0.30 — Wagamama occupies that awkward middle ground between fast casual and destination dining without fully owning either. The ramen boom left it slightly behind; the katsu curry obsession gave it a lifeline. Scores this flat suggest a brand running on habit more than desire.
