Umai Cafe offers a pleasant dining experience with attentive wait staff and is known for having the freshest fish and expert sushi chefs. The menu features delicious options like chicken fried rice, 601 sushi, and 5-piece sushi, all praised by customers as the best sushi in town. The sushi rolls may be basic, but the thick cuts allow for a focus on the fresh fish. Guests also enjoy the Spicy Girl Roll, Spicy Tuna Roll, and Philadelphia Roll, along with decent options like seafood kimchi soup and ginger salad. Everything is full of flavor, making it great for lunch or evening gatherings with friends. The sushi presentation is often praised for its appearance and freshness, which exceeds expectations given the humble setting. While the food quality is consistently high, some customers note that the front of the house can have bad energy and lack attentiveness, which can affect the overall vibe. Besides sushi, the restaurant offers a variety of entrees, including Hibachi combos and delicious soups. Umai Cafe is especially popular for special occasions like Christmas Eve, where large sushi platters and the 7 fishes tradition are enjoyed year after year. Overall, Umai Cafe serves high-quality Japanese cuisine with excellent service and plenty of choices that never disappoint.
