    Mia provided the most amazing experience as did the whole staff! From the homemade focaccia with crispy proscuitto and burrata to the light crisp arugula salad. Everything was top notch from beginning to end. Beautiful restaurant as well.

    This was our third visit to UMI and they continue to exceed our expectations on every visit. Along with a couple of dishes we knew, we tried some new items. The tuna tartare with crispy rice was amazing. The New Page roll continued to be our favorite; the lemon slices make it so unique and refreshing. The cocktails were also excellent. Our servers were professional but friendly, and were very attentive to our needs. I spilled some dipping sauce on the table and before we could even say anything, the team swooped in to clean up, replace our placemats, and get us resettled. UMI is unquestionably the best restaurant we have experienced in Atlanta.

    This was our second time eating at Roshambo, but the first time we brought 2 of our 3 children (ages 16 and 23). Our food came out quickly! Everything we ordered was delicious. They have the best crème brûlée I have ever had! Our kids raved about it all the way home. One the greatest things about Roshambo is the variety of foods on the menu-everyone could find something they were very happy with! The ambiance is fabulous. We will be back soon-the kids want us to order the fried chicken meal with mac & cheese and collards!
