Been to Umami a few times already and have mostly been happy that's why we still go back. It's a pretty popular spot so there's almost always a long wait. We've only been maybe twice when the wait was less than 15 mins. So if you come, especially on a weekend, be prepared to wait.
I love the interior of this restaurant. It's always clean. Now the food. We always get apps. Love their garlic parmesan edamame, tempura, hamachi kama although I don't think it's always the collar part that gets served. We also always order the yuzu yellowtail (my favorite), super white tuna, salmon belly, ocean trout, salmon and yellowtail carpaccios, q roll and the sarada lobster. Everything's really tasty.
Service could be a bit better. Servers are nice and they come around often to take orders. Empty plates most of the time sit there on the table taking up precious space coz when they deliver your order, they don't take away the empty plates. I guess they have other people do that. Also, the last time we were there, our orders got delivered to the table next to us who were seated and ordered after us. We had almost the same order so it took us a while to realize that those were supposed to be for us. We informed our server and she put in our order again hoping those would actually make it to our table. Today, we got seated and almost immediately got served food even before we ordered. So yeah, something needs to improve there.
We'd still go back though because their sushi's good and service was good for the most part.
