Since 2002, Umi Sushi's philosophy has remained unchanged. We offer a comfortable atmosphere, an efficient and friendly service and fantastic food. While we continue to offer the favorite menu items that have made us famous, our owners and chefs continue to search for great ideas in creating an innovative menu. Our food is sourced from top quality seasonal ingredients with no preservatives. Thanks to all our loyal customers who have supported Umi Sushi and made it's continuing success possible.
Overall, reviews highlight Umi Sushi for consistently fresh, flavorful sushi and sashimi, with salmon cuts described as melt in your mouth, generous portions on maki and popular poke bowls, and the sushi boat presenting a visually appealing feast. Service is often described as friendly and attentive, though a few experiences note slower, less professional service and delays on delivery orders. Value is mixed, with some finding the high end prices not always matched by quality, while others call it the best sushi on Nuns Island and praise easy parking and a convenient location. Taken together, the impression is that freshness, variety, and a welcoming vibe stand out, even as a minority of reviews flag price concerns or occasional service hiccups.
The salmon sashimi is exceptionally fresh & flavorful. Each slice is tender & melts in the mouth, giving a smooth & delicate texture. It truly feels like a premium dining experience, & I'm very satisfied with the quality.
This sushi restaurant is amazing! The presentation alone makes it worth visiting
- the sushi boat is beautifully arranged & was so perfect. The fish tastes fresh, especially the salmon sashimi which was very thick, & full of flavor. Plus, they were so generous on the meat for the sushi!
SO GOOD!!! The food, the service, also the location.
I went with family & had a chief choice comdo, that was so good. Fish was really fresh, & the they have a lot options for maki rolls. Love it !
Also! not gonna lie, but easy to parking is really something for me, i used to only eat sushi at downtown, but its painful to find parking. But umi has high quality food, close to downtown, & easy parking!
It was really delicious & fresh. The server was helpful. I wish I would have just had an extra soya sauce because one small soya sauce wasmt enough for the 11 pieces I purchased.i would still go back it was good
Honestly, I was blown away by the freshness of the sushi here-the salmon literally melted in my mouth. Plus, the chef checked in to see if we liked everything, which made the vibe feel super welcoming!

Delicious & fresh sushi. Fast & efficient service & accommodating staff. First time I try the vegan options at Umi & WOW! DELICIOUS & filling. I requested if the chefs can use different knives for preparing the vegan sushi's to avoid cross-contamination with the raw fish & they were very kind & easily agreeable to my request. Thank you so much!
Average suchi. We arrived at 7:53 there were only two other customers. The waitress at the door told us that will close at 9. I guess hoping that we will leave. They gave a large menu & the food is fresh but the service is poor.
Sushi was very fresh & satisfying, much better than any sushi chain & much better than all you can eat sushi restaurants.
We ordered the 45 piece plateaux & were pleasantly impressed with the presentation , quality & flavour of their nigiri , futomaki & maki, ginger & wasabi.
Given some of the reviews that I read I was apprehensive but the food was decent enough 6.5/10. The fish certainly tasted fresh. The waitress was super friendly & admitted that service was slow since she was the only one working the floor. The wine selection "by the glass" was very poor -- only two choices of red.
I'd only go back if in the area.
