The burgers are overcooked. They need to give the option to request medium rare or medium (I was told that's not an option). The way the patties are cooked now renders them flavorless. I ordered the burger with parmesan cheese, and you couldn't even taste the meat.

Imagine it’s all you want. I wish I ran into the kitchen and made sure they have enough truffles. Disappointing at myself.

Burgers were good, the pickle chips were way to salty we didn't bother eating them. The server said they had a full bar but no drinks menu. And the drinks we ordered were not good either. The server was very attentive so that was a plus.

I went with my family to this restaurant for dinner. Once we arrived, a waiter told us to take a seat, then went away. After that no waiter came to us to take our order, there were no waiters walking around whatsoever to help us. We waited 45 minutes and nobody came to help us so we left. I can say this is the worst service I’ve ever experienced in Irvine spectrum center. Unfortunately a few years ago this restaurant was wonderful, the food the service and everything about it. Since last year it’s gotten ruined. I don’t recommend this restaurant to anyone.

This place is really delicious! I think it is priced adequately for what you receive. The staff is friendly and kind, and it’s a nice location at the mall. I ordered the Single Black Garlic Burger and the Truffle Fries with a Margarita and a Water.

Burgers were mediocre, even the fries were mediocre. I get the whole being different thing but I just don’t understand a place that just can’t have regular ketchup or ranch. Service was really lacking. Won’t be back.
The original burger, the edges of the meat were slightly burnt, but the most delicious part was in the middle, which was tender and juicy. The sweet potato fries are fried well and not greasy, which is great!

The burger was dry and burnt. Way overcooked. The bun was also burnt. It's a shame because I've had burgers that were good here but it can be inconsistent.

First and foremost, Rest in Peace to Mrs. Cummings! She took her own life 3 weeks later after having this guy torment her for months! About the restaurant: Tried it on a Friday. I had ordered the original Umami Burger with some fries. The wife had ordered some of their nachos which were actually really good to be honest. We had originally dined in but decided to grab to-go due to the hostile climate there. So, it appears that The owner, Adam Fleishman, made a despicable move when he decided to impose on an older lady, by the name of Claudia Cummings. He had her gaslit into thinking she “wasn’t all there” and never paid her rent! Even more shocking, he was never invited to live in her home. Mrs. Cummings’ tenants were very perturbed by his actions to not pay rent, which caused both of them to move out. Mind you, she had been like a daughter to Claudia for 15 years!! All because the Umami owner here did his best to make everyone else feel uncomfortable. Sadly, Mrs. Cummings took her own life shortly after this man was rid of her home.I was unaware of all this. Again, there was just something strange about this place. One of the guys there l, who’s name I won’t mention, suggested I search “Adam Fleishman of Umami Burger.” This explains why they were short staffed! Lots of staff are quitting in order to stand up to this monster! The other locations are temporarily closed due to this negative publicity. Just look!

The founder of Umami Burger (Adam Fleischman) is a horrible human being. Just search what he did to a poor old woman. This dude literally squatted at her home which more than likely drove her to commit suicide. Just search “Outside the box with Flash.” It almost sounds too insane to be true. This guy was worth millions of dollars.
