Is It a Healthy Choice?
Hot Honey Fried Chicken with Teriyaki is a less healthy, indulgent choice on the Wagamama sides menu. At 793 calories per serving, it is one of the most calorie-dense sides available and is substantial enough to resemble a small main meal. While it provides a generous amount of protein, the combination of fried chicken and a sweet teriyaki-honey glaze also results in high levels of sugar, fat, and salt.
The standout nutritional benefit is its 36 g of protein, making it filling and a good source of muscle-supporting nutrition. However, it also contains 44.8 g of fat, including 5.3 g of saturated fat, making it a rich option that is best enjoyed in moderation. The 38.9 g of sugar is particularly high for a side dish, largely due to the sweet hot honey and teriyaki sauce. With only 2.5 g of fiber, it is less satisfying from a digestive and nutritional standpoint than vegetable-based sides.
The 4.6 g of salt is another important consideration. This is a high-sodium dish, so it is not ideal for anyone following a low-salt or heart-conscious eating plan, especially when paired with other savory menu items.
This side is best suited for diners seeking a protein-rich treat with bold sweet-and-savory flavors or for sharing with others. To create a more balanced meal, pair it with lighter vegetable sides instead of additional fried dishes. If you’re watching calories, sugar, saturated fat, or sodium, this is a side to enjoy occasionally rather than as a regular choice.
What Does It Taste Like?
Wagamama Hot Honey Fried Chicken with Teriyaki is rich, sweet, savory, and packed with bold flavor. The crispy fried chicken brings a deep, satisfying taste from the very first bite. The hot honey adds a smooth sweetness with a gentle chilli kick, while the teriyaki sauce layers in a rich umami flavor with hints of soy and caramel. The sweetness and spice work together without overpowering the juicy chicken, creating a bold but well-balanced finish that keeps every bite interesting.
The texture is what makes this dish so satisfying. The coating is crisp and crunchy, giving way to tender, juicy chicken that stays moist inside. The sticky glaze clings to every piece, adding a glossy finish without making the crust lose its crunch. Each bite combines crispy edges, succulent meat, and a lightly sticky sauce for plenty of contrast. It feels hearty, indulgent, and full of satisfying texture from start to finish.
For anyone who enjoys food that’s fresh, bold, and full of flavor, Wagamama is always worth a visit. Each dish is made with care, using high-quality ingredients that bring out the best in every bite.
