A lovely Japanese restaurant with super tasty food. We had take out one evening and ate in there another - amazing both times. The servers are very polite and friendly! Bonus they serve Asahi too which my husband was very pleased about.

Visited on a Sunday night around 10pm since it was one of the few places open – the late hours is definitely one of the key selling points. Service was also quite good despite it being so late at night – servers came by to top us up on tea quite frequently which was appreciated. Food itself was okay. Ordered the Black Dragon Roll and the Oyako Don. Both were just alright. The ratio of chicken/egg to rice was disproportionate (a lot more rice than topping). The Black Dragon was quite standard in terms of taste, with the rolls themselves being on the larger size. There are no dividers between tables so the restaurant can be quite loud depending on the other patrons.

The food is good, clean and cheap. A place for the family, and most importantly, it is traditional food. Update: The sushi I had was exceptional—beautifully presented and incredibly fresh. Each roll was perfectly crafted with generous portions of fresh fish and avocado, with a great balance of flavors and textures. A delightful sushi experience that I highly recommend!

They have good priced sushi from bento boxes to sushi boats to la carte items. We got the sashimi platter, popcorn chicken and 20 piece salmon sushi. All of their sashimi platter and boats come with the dry ice which makes it looks super cool. The quality of the sushi wasn’t the best but was pretty good for their price. Probably the one of the cheapest sushi place I’ve been to, all of our food including tax was around $80. Staff was really kind and put a candle in the wasabi as it was my birthday. Biggest down side is they are located in a bit of a sketchy area. Lots of signs in the parking lots remind customers to lock their cars.

I have been going to Umami House for years! The food is so fresh and delicious, and the presentation is beautiful. The portions are generous and they give you thick slices of sashimi. There is a cash discount, and the menu is very reasonably priced. The service is always friendly and fast. Usually it’s ready for pick-up, but I’ve never had to wait more than 5 minutes for my take-out order. I love this place so much, both in terms of take-out and dine-in! * Note: the pictures featured include: salmon lovers party tray, salmon sashimi, salmon lovers set, salmon poke bowl, 40 piece party tray, unagi don, angus beef short ribs bento box, assorted tempura, dragon family party tray, sushi and maki party tray B, sashimi and sushi party tray, sashimi party tray, medium mixed tray, spicy crispy salmon maki roll, garlic tiger shrimps and scallops, earl grey mille crepe cake, and condensed milk and chocolate toast. 🤤 🍣 🥢

Had a 12pc sushi meal. The soup and salad looked standard but actually tasted better than I expected. Nice toasty seaweed in the miso soup had good flavour and the salad dressing was creamy and not tasting of raw grated onion like other places. Very nice. Sushi was a good selection including octopus and squid, and decorated with edible flowers. Quite a nice experience. Cash discount is welcome too.

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Umami House, and I must say it was a delightful experience. This casual sushi restaurant offers a unique twist with its delicious baked seafood pasta, which is a refreshing departure from the typical sushi fare. It's great to see a sushi restaurant that ventures beyond the expected and adds variety to its menu. The highlight of the meal for my family was the salmon and salmon avocado hand rolls. They were expertly prepared, and the flavors were simply outstanding. My daughter and son couldn't get enough of them, and it's always a joy to see them thoroughly enjoy their food. What sets Umami House apart is the wide range of options available on their menu. In addition to sushi, they offer bubble tea, grilled dishes, baked pasta, and rice options. This makes it a perfect destination for groups with diverse tastes, as there is something to satisfy everyone's cravings. Whether you're in the mood for a light snack or a hearty meal, Umami House has you covered. I must also mention the watermelon juice, which was a pleasant surprise. It was incredibly refreshing, and the natural sweetness of the watermelon was perfectly balanced. It made for a delightful accompaniment to our meal and added an extra touch of summer to the dining experience. The ambiance of Umami House was relaxed and inviting, perfect for a casual dining experience with family and friends. The service was friendly and attentive, ensuring that our needs were met throughout our visit. Overall, I highly recommend Umami House to anyone looking for a casual sushi restaurant with a little something extra. Their baked seafood pasta is a must-try, and the salmon and salmon avocado hand rolls are sure to please. With a diverse menu offering a variety of options and delicious drinks like the watermelon juice, Umami House is a gem worth visiting.
