Yumi Japanese Restaurant & Bar - Saint Paul

Truly incredible sushi and service, especially our waitress Cassie. Highly recommend.

Good Japanese food but not worth its price. It tastes very well, however the vegetables used were only onion and cabbage (e.g. cheap veggie options). Our server was a little extra, which threw us off a little.
If you’re looking for Japanese food in a cute place, this is where I would go, however only if I want to spend too much money for average food.

It was my birthday the night I went and I had a blast. Service was impeccable as well as the food. Our server Riley did a great job at making me feel seen as the birthday girl:) He even sang happy birthday in Japanese! And chef Bino made me the cutest caricature out of fresh cut fruit! Overall a blast:)

Came here for my friends birthday dinner & Riley made it PERFECT! He was attentive, caring, polite, and generous!! The food was incredible per usual. Would come here 10 times over!!

Had a great time. Our server Chinh was awesome. Food was great and came out quick. Atmosphere was fabulous. Definitely would recommend!👍👍

We always enjoy our dining experience here with the whole family. From appetizers to rolls to entrees to drinks, savory and fresh! We love the sashimi, rolls and udon. What differentiates this place is the service. We are always greeted warmly at the door and Chinh always provides excellent service. A lot of good recommendations and very attentive service. Highly recommend!

Wonderful place! The food was fantastic! Our waiter and the rest of the staff were great. I love the atmosphere of it too! Large outdoor eating available. Easy parking. I highly recommend it!

Delicious as always. Try the salmon carpaccio.

Loved our time here. Yumi is our favorite spot for sushi, not to mention that the rolls are huge! Drinks were fun and our server was wonderful.

I reserved a table for my daughters birthday. When I arrived, I requested a booth, but was immediately told no. My reasoning for the booth is that I have a 4 year old. If we just get a table, she begins to dance around and wander, which is cute and sweet to me but not necessarily to staff and other patrons. I was not impressed with the lack of willingness to accommodate the request but figured we would receive excellent service and would avoid a full four year old dance party. Nope. That did not happen... instead, the service was very slow, the environment loud and my baby got some good dance moves all over the floor and into the large vacant booth they refused us. I was overall disappointed. We had eaten here a handful of times before but usually at lower demand times. I knew it would be busy at the time of our reservation, but I didn't know it would equate to subpar service. To clarify, this was not a reflection of our server but more of a planning/prep problem. Unfortunately, the experience left such a bad taste in my mouth that I am reluctant to return.

Kid-friendliness: Not so much the evening we attended.
