I enjoyed the meal. For my drink I ordered the Honey Bee, it taste like a sweet tangerine w/ vodka. I was very pleased. For an appetizer I had the pan-seared pork dumplings. As for an entree I ordered the sexiest woman alive sushi roll and the steak & shrimp hibachi. Highly recommend!!

Definitely top tier sushi restaurant in Baton Rouge and it was a great spot to stop at when driving back down to New Orleans after a quick road trip.

I had the kanpeki ramen and the geisha roll. The geisha roll was very good, the sushi has a subtle sweetness. The tiny cirtrus slices were so bitter, I pushed them all off. It was a good roll.

Fantastic food. Creative upscale Japanese. Tuna was incredible. Pork dumplings are always good, and a great variety of sashimi on the sample platter.

The spicy miso ramen didn’t taste like ramen at all and was so bland. The sushi rolls were great though especially the geisha roll. It was disappointing because the Hangover ramen was my favorite but it’s no longer on the menu.

Their ramen is really delicious. The seasoned egg was perfectly cooked, whites cooked all the way through with a gooey center. Was very satisfying. The noodles and broth both tasted quality as well. Service was great. Will definitely be coming back sometime to try their sushi.

Took the family to this restaurant the other night and was blown away. Great atmosphere, great drinks and omg the food! You must try the bone marrow tartare. The staff was knowledgeable and attentive. Our waitress, Kaitlyn, was so good at her job. I love sushi and we will be back! 10/10 would recommend.

I have been eating at this location for many years, even before it was named Umami. The service has always been kind and friendly with me. Lately, I have ordered my meal(s) as take-out,and the ordering and paying process is a breeze. Prices are matter of opinion, but the food here has always been worth the price to me.
