Umi Sushi & Seafood Buffet -Brandon FL

Horrible customer service, bland food, dirty tables. This place is louder then a chuck cheese with the kids running around and playing with the food in the buffet. Expensive trash food, that it slopped together by the Hispanic guys in the back, you can talk to them and you can even see them in the back cooking. Ask th manager next time, he will call them "his little pets who don't know how to cook steak". DONT TRUST THE GLOWING 5-STAR REVIEWS FOR THERE. This restaurant offers to "buy" your 5-star review. The offer sits on each table on the napkin holder.

Great buffet and service!

Great food. Will revisit

WE DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS RESTAURANT! This restaurant buys its reviews by offering visitors a free steak and lobster tail if they leave a 5-star rating. We inquired about this offer after being told to leave a 5star - AND - the server has to take picture of your review, and like. After we left a 5star we asked where the steak and lobster tail was. The server told us 'no steak and lobster', only steak. The manager "Johnny" came over and said it was 'corporate doing offer - "they are not". The manager tried telling us that the offer did not start yet but was posted as an "active deal 3hrs ago that ends on 05-15-2025" and he not doing offer - "its corporate not us" . The manager then walks away and brings back a steak dark grey that is bad color and a bad smell even after it was cooked. We could not get drink refills, could not get the empty plates removed, could not get the servers attention from server other big 6 top tables.

First time at this restaurant. The food is wonderful with a lot of choices. The staff is very friendly. My only complaint is that all the beverages are non-alcoholic. Dear owner, Soda is only for the thirsty. You need to offer wine, sake, or at least beer to complement the food.
