Small place up some stairs, but after just coming back from two weeks in Japan, this place knocked it out of the park with their sushi rolls. Took my sister’s family out for lunch and we just kept ordering, everything we had was amazing both in taste and in presentation. Very assuming place from the outside, but well worth going up the stairs and ordering a meal. This place is the real deal.

We ordered sushi for delivery tonight, and we were really happy with what we received. The sushi rolls were fresh, and the variety was impressive. Each roll had great flavors, and the fish tasted incredibly fresh. The portions were generous, and everything was packaged neatly. I also appreciated that they included soy sauce and wasabi. It came right on time, which we appreciated. The price was reasonable, and the taste was absolutely delicious. Overall, it made for a wonderful dining experience at home. We will definitely order from them again.

The food was incredible. The sushi was super fresh and the seaweed salad and soups had a lot of great flavor. The staff were also super friendly and helpful when we had questions. Overall a hidden gem, and I strongly recommend for anyone who wants delicious sushi at a reasonable price.

The atmosphere was cozy and they seated us very quickly! The sushi was plated very well and was pretty unique in ingredients and taste. Food came out quick and our waitress was super nice 🙂

So I’ll preface this with having grown up in Los Angeles, ate at amazing sushi spots in San Francisco and San Diego, and top it off with Hawaii for a week. This is hands down the best Japanese food I have ever had. I was confused as I went to it and the door said it was a phsycic reader. I called and a woman came to the upstairs window ushering me upstairs through the door.

I ordered fried oysters, chicken teriyaki lunch with rice and soup, and a tuna and mackerel nigiri. Half way through I was confused as to what I was eating and realized it was the mackerel with a very submissive non-gamey flavor. The chicken teriyaki wasn’t much to fuss about, wish it was grilled. The salad was the best I have ever had, not sure how to describe other then it was original. I told the manager all of this and she was thrilled, and they got a deserved big tip. Y’all in Washington DC are lucky

I came in on a really busy day, but the food, service, and speed of receiving my order was amazing! I got the steak hibachi and a spider roll, and both were full of flavor. I also heard from friends that the fish is super fresh if you get raw sushi.

To wrap up our meal, we got the fried ice cream and green tea mochi and they both blew me away! The green tea mochi was the right amount of sweetness for a calmer palette, and the fried ice cream satisfied my very sweet tooth 🙂

Would definitely recommend that you come with friends and enjoy the welcoming atmosphere over some fresh, delicious food.

Service was great and the staff were very sweet. I ordered the vegetable dumplings, eel avocado roll, spicy salmon roll, thai tea, and green tea mochi. 10/10! Had to go back for a second thai tea as well!

Probably the best sushi for the price you can get in the city. Everything was fresh and delicious, and the chicken katsu was a great size. Will definitely be going back

Used to be the best but not anymore.
Tip is pre- charged on a check, servers kind of expecting tip separately because all tips are sharing & all plates awiched to cheap paper plates with is expecting low class Deli shop.
My boss & I used to go 2-3 time a month but no more after last week experience with our 2 other guests.

I went to Umi last weekend and enjoyed a large variety of high quality food. I ordered sashimi, sushi, and teriyaki steak all of which were fresh and delicious. The service was exceptional and relatively fast given how busy they were! The staff was kind and responsive and I will absolutely be returning!!
