It is okay for people who want a chilled nose vibe with a BYOB. Great place for a casual first date, when you don’t really know the person and don’t want to spent too much money on alcohol, Whole Foods is just around the corner. Would I call it one of the best sushi places – no, but definitely recommend to come as it very cute. Reminded me of Spain a bit, in terms of decorations and the weather was great +29C. Cute for the vibe, but only outside, not for the food. Food is okay.

RUN – don’t walk – to order the Calamari Salad and Godzilla roll. Dining with a friend? Don’t share. Forget them. Order you’re own and eat it while staring into their disappointed eyes. Don’t apologize. You could share.. but you won’t want to. Don’t sleep on the crispy rice tot either – the only thing you’ll regret is that you didn’t order more.

Love this place! Very small and intimate resturant. Came with my boyfriend and both of us had a great experience! Will definitely be back again. The food was great!

Don’t get me wrong, the food was really good. It was a tad bit underwhelming in terms of portion sizes. The price was on the heavier side for the portions we got for the appetizer and the sushi (which comes in 6 pieces). Besides that, flavors were on point and the service was fantastic!

My octopus was so tender. You could cut it with the fork. My oysters were fresh and very nice. My nemo roll with cucumber wrapper was very refreshing. I rarely order dessert but what I ordered sounded so yummy. Banana spring rolls with red bean paste and vanilla ice cream was fantastic. If I lived here I would be a regular.

This place is amazing! Our first time here and i will tell you, you will not get disappointed. The best meal i had in a while 🙂 They recommended brussels sprout for appetizer, wow so delicious, thumbs up! But everything is so good. If its your first time, you can ask what is best recommended food. Funnel cake stick in a chocolate dip for dessert,yum! Thank you for the service, stay safe.

Heard fantastic things and was so excited to finally get to come to Umai Umai. Quaint inside to this Japanese BYOB. Few outdoor tables. Fantastic food quality. I’m still giving it 5-stars despite the terribly slow service, but there was one server for 15+ tables and we weren’t in a rush. Here were the highlights –

The food itself tasted fine, but the portions are small and the sushi pieces were cut the thinnest I’ve ever seen. The rolls were overpriced for the small portions. We were seated quickly, but waited >20 minutes to get service and just as long for our food to come out.

Limited veggie options for sushi but absolutely loved their avacdo roll! Would definitely recommend their crispy brussel sprouts and the veggie gyoza for their flavor. Their miso soup is also super flavorful!
