The table presentation with the round white plates, chopsticks, and packaged wet wipes, along with a large glass pitcher of ice water with the black and red cups elevated the dining experience. The bright Umami Ramen & Dumplings logo and restaurant signage caught our eye right away while in the shopping center. This Japanese restaurant is very clean and inviting. Our server, Linda was friendly and very helpful when we asked which of the Artisan Ramen bowls on the menu she'd recommend. She was right on her recommendation! The Tonkotsu Ramen with chashu (braised pork belly) was hot and delicious. My husband really enjoyed the flavors of the broth, the savory pork belly, and was pleasantly surprised by the corn in the dish. We also ordered the pork soup dumplings and edamame. Both were very good! And I'm a fan of both dishes. Delicious food in a pleasing environment is a win! So happy we found time to enjoy Umami!

We decided to get the Godzilla, Santa Claus, Cherry Grove and Kiss of fire rolls. All of them were perfect. 10/10. Food was served very quickly.

The ambience is very cozy and intimate which makes this place even better. I'm glad we went to Shika, I'm sure I'll be back soon.

However the hibachi was just OKAY. I had steak and shrimp and pretty sure the steak was like a chuck. Fried rice was just that, nothing in it.

The small but spacious restaurant was quaint and cozy. We ordered miso soup, edamame, the shrimp tempura (veggies included), vegetable spring rolls, two spicy tuna rolls, a cream cheese and cucumber roll, and a shrimp tempura roll with avocado and cucumber. The sushi roll pieces were too big for my liking. I did enjoy the spring rolls, miso soup, and edamame.

I had a stellar experience at Otani!…read more The restaurant itself itself is very cozy. The decor is very simple; A few paintings on the wall and a view to watch the sushi chefs at the bar. I ordered the beef tataki, the sashimi platter, and the tako yaki: - The beef tataki was served chilled; The beef was slightly smokey and the sauce was bright, giving the dish a kind of refreshing feeling. - The fish in the sashimi platter was very fresh and the display was beautiful. The sashimi came with miso soup (as good as any other miso soup). - I loved the takoyaki! I tend to think takoyaki tastes about the same everywhere, but this may genuinely have been my favorite takoyaki I've tried in the area; I had to resist ordering a second plate of it. As a solo diner, I spent $58 (excluding tip) for what I perceive to be a lot of food. For a fancy solo outing, I think it was great value for the quality of food. The staff was also very attentive and my food came out promptly. This is a great solo dining or date spot.

I say romantic because of the dimmed lighting.. but that was also what relaxed me ha. Check out the video for how they present the "Play Boy" roll. We also had the eel salmon cake which was unique and I forgot to take photos I'm sorry. Loved the seaweed salad as it wasn't overly sweet. The spicy dip that came with calamari was not spicy (not complaining just sharing). Someone ordered noodles with chicken and they're picky and they tore it up like it was their last meal. I want to try the rainbow tartar next time as it's tuna, salmon, and crab salad.

Let me put this out here now. The 2 stars is for FOOD and id give 4 stars for CUSTOMER SERVICE if I could. Based on photos on reviews people praised the sushi rolls etc but my group wanted a variety of everything because well we dined with kids. Their menu consists of sushi, Thai food, Chinese food etc ... we ordered a plethora of food . shrimp tempura, chicken and vegetable tempura, kids steak.. sizzling beef w rice... sushi entree.. miso soups and tom yum soup and pad Thai. THE FOOD WAS NOT GOOD! we've dined at many sushi restaurants, Thai food places ,Chinese restaurants.. we KNOW what things should taste like and this was NOT it at all. The sizzling rice beef only good thing about it was the presentation. The sizzle and smoke show when it arrived. This dish was made with such a generic bland sauce with wierd textured beef. It was EDIBLE.. But thats all I can say. Pad thai.. my my my .. This was the most soupy orange colored looking dish with over cooked noodles. Tasted NOTHING like pad thai.. please remove this off the menu. The shrimp tempura.. tell me why on your menu you described this as lightly battered shrimp etc etc like it was hand made and dipped by you in in tempura flakes? not only did this dish come out wayyyy too fast after ordering that we KNEW once we got the shrimp tempura that this place wasnt going to be good. The shrimp tempura was clearly frozen and the horrible coating that you usually get with frozen shrimp tempura from the store was thick and shrimp was skinny and inedible. idk if this was microwaved but i doubt they even fried it since it literally came out in 5 min after ordering. Costco shrimp tempura in the freezer section would of been way better than this. My kids barely touched this dish and they LOVE shrimp tempura so much. Please change the description on your menu. It makes it seem like you would be dipping and coating your own shrimp tempura when in fact this is frozen and coated in a thick bread batter not in a nice light tempura flakes batter.. the sushi! OMG.. The sushi Entree was horrible. The fish looked like play dough .. i felt bad for my husband .. the sushi was not fresh idk where they get their fish from but the sushi looked as if it was "Play sushi " the colors were off.. My husband said there was something off about the taste and we could see it. We've dined at many sushi restaurants from high end to $ sushi restaurants.. We've even had sushi in Korea,& Japan.. the texture, the look of the fish pieces this was inedible and not sushi. Would not recommend. Tom yum soup.. very orange.. very concentrated needed more water and the shrimp were diced in small pieces. Maybe used 2-3 shrimp and this cost $7. There was only a sour taste and no spice to it at all. Don't recommend if you know me I HATE wasting money on bad food. The reviews definitely tricked us into coming here. The only thing I felt like was a 7/10 was the sushi rolls which had spicy tuna , shrimp tempura, and all the sauces on top from eel sauce and spicy mayo. That was the only dish I felt like tasted fine. The Chinese, Thai and sushi dishes were not good and this place is crossed off my list of restaurants. It sucked knowing once we got our first dish I just knew the dishes coming after the shrimp weren't going to be good and my entire group agreed.. so disappointing. Almost $80 down the drain for my family and i. if you're going to have a variety of different cuisines on your menu please perfect them. Otherwise focus on ONE because non of the dishes tasted good. or authentic to how it should've tasted or been made!. 0 stars if I could. SMH . we left 1 hour before closing no other customers in the restaurant after we arrived around 830pm They were counting the registers by 9pm. They close at 1030pm. That should tell you something.. Came home to a bad stomach ache . I'd rather have that then food poisoning so .. took pepto bismol and called it a night
