this place is quite litterally the best Japanese place you will find. a few things you MUST know though. one its tiny, 2 you need a reservation, its not required per say, but theres only 4 tables so good luck getting in without one. and lastly this is NOT your typical american japanese restaurant. this place is like going to a familys home in japan to eat. outside of it not being a house thats the feeling. and thats a good thing. haveing so few seats is honestly what makes this...
I adore this place. It's unlike anything else you'll find in the area. It's a tiny restaurant run by a wife and husband team. The food is fresh, authentic, and delicious. A wonderful place for a calm and cozy experience. Big portions and a great sake menu.
Wow! Umi was a 5 star experience all around. Excellent food and atmosphere. It is small and elegant. The service goes above and beyond - we were able to learn about the family traditions and recent trips. Easily my favorite restaurant experience in Hickory!
