All the food was AMAZING!!!! BEST CRUNCH ROLL IVE EVER HAD!!!! All the employees were so friendly and very attentive. What a great dining experience!! Definitely need to go back soon! Thank you read more

Parking: Easy, shared lot The carpaccio (sashimi) was room temp which was a little unsettling to me. At other places I've had, it's usually slightly chilled or just right. This just didn't feel right. I ordered the spider roll and dragon roll. Those hit my marks and reached the standard. Ambiance is casual and the service was polite. All in all, I think this restaurant can do rolls well but I don't think I would come back. read more

This is my second time at Sushi Umi & I'm totally fine with coming back. I don't think this is a must have place to come for sushi, but I do think it's a great option when you want sushi fast & are looking for something more casual. Parking: Super easy with a big lot. Ambience: Tiny, but cute! I love the flowers that allow for more privacy. ‍Service: Our waiter was helpful, friendly & fast! Noise level: It wasn't busy so it wasn't too loud. They had acoustic pop covers playing in the background at a normal level. What we ordered: * Hot sake: Yum! * Miso soup: 2/5, it was okay. * Double Salmon: 3/5, the seared pepper threw it off for me. However, my bf loved this one! * Aloha: 5/5 pretty yummy! * Special Menu - Jalapeño Seabreeze roll: I THINK this is what this was called, but I can't recall. 5/5 SO yummy! * Salmon sushi (2pc): 4/5, not bad! I wish it was a little softer, but still great. Prices: Average I would've taken pictures before I started eating, but we were hungry! read more

Felt like salmon teriyaki and my first choice was closed due to family matters so I tried Sushi Umi which was just down the road. Service was pleasant from the start. Easy to call in and easy pick up. Salmon was very good as was the miso soup. The rest of the bento was good to ok. Spicy tuna roll was good and chicken karaage was just ok. Surprised to find a small salad and egg roll as well which was nice. Happy to have tried it and will be back for the salmon and try some additional dishes as well. read more

Sushi Umi - Employee that helped us have a great time. - Sushi Bars Near Me - Glendora, California

We had a forgettable experience at Sushi Umi. Service was bad during our night out. We have dined at Sushi Umi one other time prior. To note, the location is small and there's about 6 tables/booths total. We seated ourselves per the server. We ordered two items. One Shrimp Tempura Udon and my wife a Double Salmon Roll. I received my Udon order first. A decent time passed and had us wondering about the sushi roll. Server told us, sorry it's busy they are working on it. Then more time passed. Finally after 20+ minutes after the udon was served my wife's sushi came. Server said she'd give wasabi and ginger but it never came. The wait time between the two orders was pretty crazy. My wife said the roll was ok, but salty. The udon was good since I was craving soup. Didn't take a picture of the sushi roll because my wife was already hungry from all the waiting. The experience wasn't great for us, unfortunately. Seemed like other tables were waiting for all their food as the server was apologizing constantly to other customers. After today, it confirmed why we don't think to come here. There's other reliable sushi spots we usually frequent that serve similar menu items, but have better service. read more

I dined here earlier tonight with my husband and I'm sad to say this experience was not so great. We've been here once before, but it wasn't this bad. My husband ordered the Tempura Shrimp Udon Soup and I ordered the Double Salmon Roll. His soup was served within minutes, but mine took about 20+. The waitress apologized for the wait and said it was because they were busy. I overheard her apologizing to other tables for the same thing. When I finally got my order, she said she would get the ginger and wasabi, but that never came. The roll was good initially then it started to taste salty. When I looked closer, I could see so much of the salt sprinkled on top of the salmon and on the plate. When I had the last four pieces left to eat, I scraped some of it off the fish. There's room for improvement and I hope the other diners tonight didn't have a bad experience like I did. I think it would be best to serve all the dishes for the same table at once rather than have just one served while the other person waits, especially if it's busy. Maybe don't have tall tree dividers in between the seating because it felt like we were hidden. For now, I won't be returning here. read more

Tried a new hole in the wall and it did not disappoint. Sooo fresh, can't wait to go back. Miso was soothing. Green tea was delish. Chefs were so friendly. We sat at the counter and watched them go to work. The parking lot was a bit sketchy but plenty of lights to park under. read more

The staff is always friendly and service is great. The sushi quality is amazing. I've dined in once, but we usually order take out here. My s/o went near closing time, but they still took his take out order and gave him free non-alcoholic beer lol The combo with miso soup and a hand roll is my favorite. Def come give this place a try if you're nearby. Plenty of parking. read more

Really happy to have found good quality sushi near us!! I've been to a few sushi restaurants around us but the quality of the fish has always been just acceptable. In the chirashi bowl that we ordered from sushi umi, all the fish were high quality and fresh! I couldn't decide which fish I liked the most, which is when you know it's all good! Tempura Philly roll- decent, nothing special and tastes like a normal fried Philadelphia roll which isn't a problem! Super dragon roll- also nothing special, just like other restaurants which isn't an issue at all I'll definitely be coming back here for the chirashi bowls and to try other rolls and sushi :) read more

I stopped here for a drink and snack before my nail appointment in the same shopping center and it was such a vibe! The menu is well priced and service was superb. Shout out to Jonah for taking care of me at the sushi bar. I didn't have any actual rolls but I will definitely be back next time I'm craving sushi. The restaurant is tucked deep into the CVS parking lot but such a hidden gem with a great menu. If you're near Glendora or Covina check this place out! read more

What a little gem! We were starving and out late and found this place because it was open late. I felt so bad going in so close to closing, but the people there were so kind. The food was wonderful, the service was spectacular and the restaurant is clean and lovely. The prices were very reasonable. EVERYTHING is so much more expensive now, but the freshness and quality of the food and service made the prices feel like a bargain! Our visit was a week ago and we're going back again tonight for my daughter's birthday dinner. read more

Updated Reveiw: After many months of coming to Umi almost at least once a week, I'd like to say that they have just constantly improved themselves! The sushi is always so fresh and yummy and it's always such a pleasure to constantly come back :) Every single staff member is so kind to my family and I. It really is just nice to come here after a long day of work. It's awesome to see that they are picking up business too! I just know this restaurant is going to be a hot spot in no time. read more

Omgggg their salmon sushi pieces are huge and so fresh! Also got their Rainbow Roll, amazing and sizable rolls with good rice-to-fish ratio. Yummy and super fresh fish! And delicious miso soup, not that salty. I appreciate that they gave me a side of ginger in a to-go sauce cup instead of the packaged kind that doesn't taste as good nor fresh. Would definitely order thru Postmates again! And maybe dine in another time. read more

Customer service was really good. Our server was sweet. We were there Saturday I do have a complaint on the quality of the fish... Im not sure if it was just that day but the salmon was extremely slimy and I bit into the lime that was served with one of the no rice rolls and it was extremely pungent like it was spoiling. I spit it out and just ignored it due to not wanting to bug. We ordered the oysters and they were basically room temp so less fresh than I'm use to. I'm not trying to be rude just a heads up. I feel extremely sick I threw up twice today and had tmi diarrhea right after consumption until today and I haven't had anything out of my usual the past two days. It's unfortunate because of how pricey our bill came out to be just to be sick. We should've mentioned it to the server. read more

Favorite place to grab rolls to-go! Fresh fish and friendly service. Price point is fair too.

Sushi Umi! Deserves a 10 star! They have the best SUSHI IN Glendora. It's so fresh and the cutest little spot to eat and relax . They always have the best music and the ambience is so welcoming. We came here the other night to celebrate our son's birthday and they went above and beyond by singing happy birthday and setting the mood by turning off the lights in the "entire "restaurant! It was an amazing experience and super cute hearing them sing happy birthday! Their sushi like the double shrimp and San Dimas roll are my ultimate favorite! Their energy and smiles its self is worth coming here every single time! I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a great place to eat and enjoy good vibes all around! Thank you Sushi Umi! read more

I haven't been to this restaurant in years but it's in my neighborhood and I was craving sushi lunch. It's totally changed with dark booth seating and cherry blossom decor hanging from the ceiling. Even a small sushi bar. The to go order came out quickly and nicely packaged. The lunch special bento is a value with many choices. They even included the miso soup and a little crispy veggie egg roll on the side! The nigiri sushi is very fresh and well proportioned with the rice. Bulgoki beef is tender.
