    The food is exceptional and the flavours are ON POINT!! Service seemed a little chaotic, perhaps they weren't expecting to be so busy on a Monday? Will definitely visit the next time, when in town.

    Umi is undoubtedly one of the best, non teppanyaki, Japanese restaurants I've experienced. The food is beautifully prepared and presented, with notable highlights being the Spicy Tuna, Spicy Salmon, and Hamachi hand rolls. The chicken wontons were perfectly fried, offering great taste, and the Kimchi edamame struck a perfect balance of spicy heat and mellow texture. The nigiris were also excellent.** However, there are some significant caveats. The drinks, including the Blossom Negroni and Maracuya Rum Cocktail, were just average—nothing extraordinary. More importantly, be prepared: Umi is one of the most expensive places I've dined at, and we both left hungry. Despite the quality, the portions were small, and the service was so fast that there was no time to savor the food. We were finished with our meal in under 30 minutes and had to visit another restaurant afterward to feel satisfied. Additionally, the atmosphere had its downsides. The music was too loud to have a decent conversation, and the seating was quite cramped. While the food was outstanding, these factors significantly detracted from the overall experience.

    La comida estuvo increíble y sentarse en la barra suma mucho a la experiencia. El servicio excelente. Igual que el ambiente y la decoración. La música estaba buena, pero estaba un poco alta, por lo que era díficil conversar o escuchar a los chefs cuando te hablaban.
