I ordered seaweed salad, toro nigiri, spicy tuna roll and freshman roll. It was an off time to go around 4 pm and the first person got their food about 15/20 minutes before me when we both ordered rolls. I had an average experience here, not blown away by the food quality.
I love sushi, and this restaurant done it the best so far, my first time here and I will be coming for back for more, the price was well worth it, great service
I ordered take out through DoorDash and decided to get a new place. Oh boy am I happy about this choice! The rolls were amazing, the fish from this place just tastes different, so fresh and flavorful, melts in your mouth. Poki Poki salad is 12.95, this place offers poke salad for $13, but the quality is 2x better. The lemon roll - out of the world fresh. I’m definitely visiting this place in person. Even my 5-year-old son gave his sushi a thumbs up!
This is probably one of the best japanese spots in southern California. One of the few places I have had ramen that actually tastes like what I had in Japan a few years ago.
This place is awesome. Didn’t expect great sushi from a campus restaurant but due to the ratings we stopped in. Everything was delicious. Their rolls that have krab have a slight sweet taste that we all loved, really sets it apart from other restaurants. The Dynamite was also different from what we are used to, instead of having a thick sauce on top that is broiled until browned, they fry their roll and put their spicy Mayo on it and then put fried shrimp and scallops on top, beautiful! Everything we have was great.
Nice place in a new neighborhood in San Marcos. The service was quick, friendly but a little bit pushy to order things right away. The food is good, the menu is large with options for everyone including gluten free and vegetarian. Prices are reasonable.
I've been here twice now for lunch and both times have been very good. Of particular note is their tempura. This has been the best tempura I've ever had. And each time several people tasted it and we all agreed, excellent. The other dishes were also good. The service is excellent both polite and attentive. In general the whole experience there is very good.
SUSHI MUFFIN ?This is a masterpiece of fish and no rice! Gives you that perfect amount of sweetness and spice ? (sesame seed, seaweed, krab meat, masago, salmon, edible flowers, fresh wasabi, house dressing, mayo, eel sauce)Highly Recommended items to order from Umami:- Sushi Muffin- Piggy Bao Bun (So soft, so sweet, so good)- Fire Fire (Beautiful Baked Roll with actual fire)- Protein Roll (An amazing no rice roll)- Lemon Roll (To cleanse the pallet between bites of the other rolls)
Well now I know what the hype is about regarding this place. This is ? sushi on a whole different level! The spicy lemon just melts in your mouth! The super albacore was amazing! So much fish and so delicious ? my favorite sushi that I order everywhere I go as a means of comparison is Philadelphia roll, even this simple roll was just different. So fresh and flavorful. Not sure what flavoring the chef uses but it’s just right!
Absolutely amazing!! 10 stars all around and Amy was a wonderful hostess and the food was top notch ?
