Staff are very welcoming. Sushi is good as well. Lots of variety of rolls. Better than the AYCE sushi spots in the area. Have to mention Josh our server. He was great and provided great service to us. Thank you Josh!

Very satisfied. I ordered the salmon teriyaki bento box, the portions were well done and I feel full after eating. Although, the miso at the beginning was lukewarm and I would have liked it warmer.

Kumi Café is one of those hidden gems you find and just keep coming back to. My husband and I have been here multiple times, and every visit is just as good — if not better — than the last.
The service is always amazing. The staff is kind, fast, and really on top of things without ever making you feel rushed. They create the kind of experience that makes you feel genuinely taken care of.
Today, we had the Korean short rib, the bento box...
