We were there on a Saturday evening, having booked, there were incredible people, we had been placed at the very back in a room bordering forget…The price is still high enough to end up having half of the dishes ordered or else you receive the dishes from another table! The service and to see again there is a particularly unpleasant gentleman who speaks to us like "dogs" and we throw the dishes in our mouths... really very disappointed we expect a lot from this restaurant to in the end be really very disappointed we were 1h30 drive for 83 euros or we eat kedal! We will not come back!

Excited for my first time at Umi Yama, we arrived just before opening, with the doors open already to customers. Though informed they weren't officially open, we decided to wait and grabbed a table for all three of us. However, after sitting for about 30 minutes and being served our water, the waitress insisted we move to another set of tables.Two people at our table waited over 40 minutes for their food. Despite this, she was tipped generously. She made 35$ in tips at our table. Yet, the waitress singled me out, questioning if everything was okay with the service, to which I politely responded "Yes" However, she persisted and asked again. I responded with "yes". It seemed to be becoming personal now with the way she asked the next question "Did I do something wrong??" and then continued to complain about the tip percentage she received and continue to lecture me about her tax burdens. "I'm just letting you know" and repeated this same sentence a few timesexpressing dissatisfaction with the tip, insisting it should meet a certain percentage because she pays taxes.It felt racially motivated as she had asked us where we were from before we paid. And after being unhappy with the tips she received she told me that she pays taxes to the government to serve us. WOWAssuming we dont pay taxes? To add to that it's like she was implying that it was our duty to tip more because she pays taxes...... and we dont? Why even mention this? The entitlement was real. And FYI first nations pay taxes too!I told her that I tipped her and like her I also "paid taxes" on my meal.If I have to tip you because you pay taxes then tax exempt should be honored because I'm first nation? Is that how this works? (I never said this btw but I was thinking it)Does this place honor tax exempt for first nations? No. You don't see me making a big deal and harassing the staff about it. Based on what she said she is basically forcing customers to contribute more to her income to help her offset her tax burden. After telling her that we pay taxes too she back tracked and said that the government taxes her based on the presumption that customers will tip the standard 15%Because she kept repeating "I'm just telling you" and "im just telling you for next time" I also repeated the same and made it clear that I tipped her and that I pay taxes too. Her insistence made me defensive and I felt uncomfortable and quite humiliated especially as she used me as an example for other paying customers and openly engaged in this conversation around a room full of customers clearly wanting everyone to hear.This back and forth continued until she finally relented. It was clear she wanted to publicly shame me. Her behavior soured the entire experience, making it unlikely for me to return. She's losing customers at someone elses business. Its too bad because whoever was cooking was a great cook. Good food bad service.Also the amount I decide to tip or not is up to me. No one's gonna force me to tip more just because they feel entitled to more. We all pay taxes it's not my job to ensure that her taxes are offset and that she's financially covered.

Everything is excellent!... the food is well prepared, beautiful presentation, the cocktails are sublime, the service is impeccable and the atmosphere is tasteful. The only negative point is the lack of musical variety...if it can be considered that ?

Very very good but very very long.Very long delays when ordering the plates, never served at the same time. Drinks also served long after ordering. We stayed 2h15 and decided to leave even though we hadn't had 2 dishes.However, the dishes are really tasty, the rice not too vinegary, the sushi not too stuffed with rice and the fish extra tender.The waiter offered us drinks to compensate for the wait and we appreciated the gesture. Despite everything, we could see that there was poor organization within the team and an obvious lack of personnel.Courage to them.

A very good taste experience, a beautiful atmosphere that is both intimate and warm. The decor is modern and nice. A special mention for the service which was provided by friendly, good advice and patient ladies (we had young children). Thank you for this beautiful evening.
