Umami Express Reviews
Ordered on doordash -- wanted something healthy and tasty and found Umami Express. I got the Chicken Rice Bowl with szechuan chili oil crunch and lemon garlic soy sauce. The flavors from the sauce could've been stronger, but this could just be me needing to adjust my palette back to healthier foods after being so used to eating processed/fast food. I loved the tofu and water chestnuts to give it that nice crunch. Overall pretty good value if you're looking for something tasty...read full review
Couldn't find it the first time I went, (gps led me to the alley entrance of a parking lot behind) and the front desk guy wasn't nice... (he is always eyes on his phone, and has never made eye contact on subsequent visits) BUT WOW!!! The food was so much better than I expected. Definitely worth everything else, especially since they're open late. Ambiance? It's a ghost kitchen, so nothing to mention there, other than parking is easier, and safer, at the Rite Aid next door.

Needed to grab a quick dinner before getting on the road. This was a perfect spot! First time with this kiosk ordering/pick up but great for my situation. Chicken cabbage bowl was so delicious and gave me enough energy to get home from my 2 hr drive. Not a sit down spot so just expect to grab and go! But I am craving another bowl already!!
