About Umami Express

Umami Express, located in Anaheim, offers fresh and healthy meals with a variety of options to suit different dietary needs. This restaurant operates out of a ghost kitchen, making it easy to place an order at a screen and pick up the food within 10 minutes. Although the seating area is small and there is no dine-in option, the restaurant is always clean.

One popular dish is the "Protein Lover Rice & Cabbage Bowl," which is dairy-free, gluten-free, and has zero refined sugar. It includes shredded cabbage, heirloom forbidden and brown rice, chicken, pork, organic tofu, steamed broccoli, cauliflower, carrots, fresh green onion, toasted sesame seeds, and a choice of signature sauces. The Szechuan chili oil is a standout, providing a nice crunch. Customers can opt for the Garlic Sesame Soy Sauce or the Lemon Garlic Soy Sauce, which adds a creamy touch.

The Tofu Rice Bowl is another popular choice, featuring large, super firm cubes of tofu. Customers can also add a hand-written thank you note to their order, adding a personal touch. Overall, Umami Express is recognized as one of the best places for high-quality, budget-conscious food. The pricing is reasonable, with dishes typically ranging from $12 to $15. The bowls are fulfilling and provide a healthy option for those on the go. While some customers suggest improvements for the cooking techniques and sauce flavors, the restaurant continues to deliver fresh, healthy, and delicious meals.
