Nous sommes venus ici parce que nous cherchions un restaurant haut de gamme pour manger de bons sushis.
Nous n'avions pas été déçu ! La nouriture est succulente, on sent bien que les plats sont frais & il y a pleins de saveurs. On peut voir les cuisinier à l'oeuvre, ils préparent les planches sur le comptoir. Même la sauce soja a plus de goût qu'une sauce classique.
En dessert j'ai pris le cheesecake au mâcha : très belle découverte, c'est un des meilleur cheesecake que j'ai mangé.
Dommage que les portions sont plutôt petites par rapport au prix..

En résumé : super endroit pour manger des sushis mais préparez votre porte monnaie pour manger à votre faim.

De plus, le lieu est chaleureux & le personnel est aimable. Prévoyez de réserver à l'avance, vous pourriez manquer de place.

We enjoyed the ambiance & the location: a peaceful little spot surrounded by tall buildings, which made for a charming outdoor dining experience.
However, some aspects of the evening left us disappointed. We paid over $120 for 23 pieces of sushi & a very average, industrial-style dessert. For that price, we expected higher quality & a more exciting taste experience.
When you pay for service, you naturally expect that it includes basic things like serving the wine you brought yourself. I hadn't noticed the small note on the menu mentioning a corkage fee, & the waiter never pointed it out either. I only realized it when the bill arrived. This seems inconsistent with the restaurant's promotional message, which highlights the option of bringing your own wine-something that feels less generous when you're charged to actually drink it.
Sometimes it's not just the food, but all the small things combined-parking difficulties, hidden charges, & a sense of imbalance between cost & quality-that can leave a lasting impression.
We hope the experience improves in the future, but for now, it feels like a place we wouldn't rush back to.

I had an amazing experience at Umamia. From the moment we arrived, the service was impeccable - fast, friendly, & professional. Our waiter was incredibly attentive, checking in just the right amount & offering thoughtful recommendations that really elevated our meal.

Following his suggestions, we shared the wasabi chips, truffle-parmesan edamame, & miso soup to start - each dish was delicious.

The sushi itself was fresh, beautifully prepared, & absolutely delicious. You can tell they prioritize quality ingredients. Every bite was balanced & flavorful.

I recommend!
