My fiancé and I did the 18 course omakase tasting menu for Valentine's Day and it was absolutely incredible! Each course was so fresh and full of flavor. Literally every bite gave you a taste of something different. The duck breast, Tuna topped with caviar and the Umami bite were some of our favorites but there was not a single thing on the menu that wasn't absolutely delicious! Cannot recommend enough to anyone who loves Japanese cuisine! 10/10

Overall it was just ok. I feel the chef needed to slice the nigri pieces more often. To make it easier to eat. Also too many non-traditional Americanized courses
Pedro
I had expectations this was going to be great. Overall, it was very mediocre. The food was so so. There are much better sushi options as far better prices.

highlight a range of experiences, from highly praised, unique creations with premium ingredients (A5 wagyu, Hokkaido uni, caviar) and educational service to critiques about inconsistency, high cost, or presentation not matching price, with standout elements often being the chef's skill, seasonal surprises like torched wagyu or unique sea el, and overall value.

amazing experience - everything is delicious and the chefs and staff are so kind. would highly recommend!

Every single bite is an explosion of flavor. Especially the Uni and Foie Gras. It was fantastic that the chef provided a visual reference for the evening's fish. This interactive approach made it a pleasure to discover new seafood varieties

This was such a wonderful experience and worth the money! The chef and staff are so informative and friendly and the food was amazing!!!

My favorite place for special occasions- the food is exceptionally good, and the staff are wonderful. The sake pairings add to the experience. Sit at the counter if you have the choice- watching how the dishes are constructed is amazing.

I went with 2 friends who love sushi, as do I. The food (18 courses) was delicious and served at a nice pace. We sat at the counter and it was interesting to see the items prepared. They told us a little about the fish and showed some entire specimens. The room is sparsely decorated but clean and well lit. The staff is friendly. We were the only group that wasn't celebrating a special occasion, which makes sense considering the price tag. We went the day after Thanksgiving so the place was only half full, which was great since the chefs had more time to interact with us at the counter; they were more than willing to answer questions. It was a memorable evening.

Incredible dining experience! I would like to keep this a best kept secret before word gets out and I can't get a resy. But I also want everyone to know about this place and come experience their magic.
Tremendous omakase experience tonight! The best and freshest fish available with tremendous preparation methods. The staff were all friendly and supremely knowledgeable. It's expensive, as omakases are (though cheaper than many of the other top dogs in the area), but you get what you pay for. Highly recommend!

All of the food at umami Omakase was delicious. Our server was very helpful during the experience. My wife and I came here for our wedding anniversary. We would definitely come again! The best part is not having to stress about making decisions about what to order!

Amazing Omakase experience! The food was fresh and inventive, with excellent sake pairings. In short, the chefs are brilliant. The atmosphere is comfortable and the small space makes for intimate dining where you can be immersed completely in the experience. And the staff are nothing short of perfect— Lexus took her time moving us through the Umami 18 course dinner, as if we were the only people there. Exceptional food, exceptional service, exceptional experience! Parking isn’t readily available, so be sure to save time to search for street parking if you’re driving in.

We had the 15 piece tasting meal (there is an 18 course option too). Every dish was carefully prepared and thoughtfully crafted to highlight the freshness of the fish and vegetables along with contrasting colors and textures. The culinary team provides helpful descriptions of each dish. All guests were seated at the sushi bar (there were only about 8 of us). There are sake tastings to match the food. The one down side is the relative low quality and limited selections for wine. They said that bringing in wine was an option but with a corkage fee of $50. Despite these limitations, I look forward to trying this impressive eating experience again.

My boyfriend and I came for the Tuna Tasting, and it was an incredible experience! I’ll admit, I was initially a little nervous after reading some of the reviews, but we didn’t encounter any of those issues at all.
Our Uber from the hotel ran late and what was supposed to be an early arrival turned into getting there about five minutes past our reservation time. I called the restaurant about 30 minutes beforehand to let them know, worried we might lose our counter seats or miss a course. Fortunately, they were so understanding, and we still got to sit at the sushi counter.
From the moment we arrived, everyone was incredibly welcoming the chefs, the servers, and the overall atmosphere felt both relaxed and fun. The staff were very knowledgeable, and we learned so much about the different cuts and types of tuna. You’d think eating only tuna all night might get repetitive, but every course was creative, unique, and left us wanting more.
We’ve been to many omakase restaurants, and this was truly one of the most memorable experiences we’ve ever had. If they host another tuna carving event, it’s absolutely something you have to try at least once!
