You'll need to walk around the side of the building and ring the doorbell to get in, at which point you'll walk upstairs to a beautifully decorated, nautical themed sushi counter. I arrived with my mom about 10 minutes before our 7:30 pm reservation on a Saturday night, and we were the first ones there. The hostess/waitress was warm and welcoming. She gave us their drink menu which consisted of sake, beer and wine, along with flight options of wine and sake that pair with the Omakase menu. She let us sample two of them (generous pours) before we made our choice. If you're on the fence between a bottle or by the glass, highly recommend the bottle -- we ended up drinking more than we planned to since it went down so smoothly, and also, this 17-course meal calls for more than a couple glasses of sake. The vibe of this place was really friendly and approachable, moreso than other Omakase experiences I've had in the city. We started out with an appetizer featuring snowcrab and seaweed served with sesame oil, mirin, soy sauce and Dashi broth which was simple but refreshing. Our waitress supplied us with ample ginger throughout the experience to keep our palate cleansed as we moved through each course. As other people have mentioned, this isn't the most inventive or even fancy Omakase, so if you're here hoping for truffle, caviar, foie gras toppings or things set on fire and smoked, you might be a bit let down. But every piece of this sushi was fresh, melt in your mouth, and well seasoned. I actually appreciated being able to really taste and appreciate the fish rather than have the flavor be masked by overpowering ingredients. Courses ranged from different types of premium tuna to scallops, shrimp, snapper, mackerel, sea bream, tile fish, and fluke. My favorite was the wagyu and uni hand roll, which was delicious. Our sushi chef even gave us an uni "bump" to eat off our hands like caviar, which was amazing. I love uni so much. Highly, highly recommend this place if you're in town during summer. Super memorable dining experience, we even made friends. I'll be back next year!

Service was quick and friendly, they went out of their way to accommodate us even though you could tell they were doing a lot of to go orders. Everything came out on paper plates with plastic cutlery and wooden chopsticks which was honestly fine by us, easy clean up for them and a casual night out for us. We were checked in on frequently and the staff made sure we had everything we needed to enjoy our sushi, plus a few nice little extra touches like extra wasabi, etc. Everything was fresh and tasty and came out quickly and accurately. A solid sushi spot if you're in the area and have a craving.

We had an excellent lunch at Takkii Ramen!…read more We were NOT a fan of the ordering system which consisted of us choosing what we wanted on an Ipad, rather than placing our order with a server at our table. When we needed to omit our order to leave a couple items off the ramen, we had to go to the counter so they could edit it (edits are not available on the iPad). This was a very cold ambiance to what could be a more welcoming start to a visit. We ordered appetizers of vegetable gyoza and takoyaki, and a couple pork ramen soups. The food was absolutely delicious and they got our orders correct. I just felt like we didn't get to know our server since we didn't get to directly place our order with them, and they weren't too attentive throughout the visit. We would definitely return for their wonderful food, but I hope that by the time we come back, they have regular table service!

There is a parking lot, but I had to wait for a car to leave to get a spot. I had made a reservation for 6 people at 7:00pm earlier in the week. My friends were running late, but I was seated in the meantime. Umami Sushi and Grill is modern, stylish, and spacious. We were seated in a private nook like an open bird cage and it allowed for a private and intimate dining experience. It was all of ours first time here and can't wait to go back. We started with the Mushroom Salad and Rock Shrimp Tempura Bites for appetizers. The mushroom salad had sautéed seasonal mushrooms with yuzu dressing. The rock shrimp was battered and lightly fried served with yuzu creamy spicy aioli sauce. The mushroom salad was refreshing and the rock shrimp flavor was great. We also ordered a bottle of Mio sparkling sake. I've always enjoyed this sake so I had to order it when I saw it on the menu. It is light, fruity, and slightly sweet. I ordered the Shaggy Dog Roll which had shrimp tempura inside, topped with crab meat, crunch, spicy mayo, and eel sauce. Very yummy and savored every bite. For dessert, I had the matcha cheesecake and I enjoyed it very much. The matcha cheesecake was packed with matcha flavor and it was creamy and luscious. The portion was smaller than the fried cheesecake and the fried ice cream that my friends got, but that was totally okay since the matcha cheesecake was so rich. Umami Sushi and Grill was the perfect place for my friends and I to catch up. Service was wonderful and we stayed at the restaurant for about 3 hours. The staff were attentive and still filled our water/hot tea. Definitely worth checking out.
