I stopped in here for a late supper on a Saturday night. We were seated right away and our waitress…read morewas friendly and helpful with excellent service. I ordered the Pan-Fried Gyoza and the Shrimp Hibachi. The Gyoza was browned perfectly and delicious. The Fried Rice included eggs, Vegetables were on point, and the Shrimp were coated in a delicious sauce and were the largest shrimp I have ever seen served in a Hibachi dish. I did notice on the menu that they source their shrimp from South America. Maybe that explains it. My nephew ordered some kind of rolls and was very impressed with the size and taste. We would both definitely return here and try more things on the menu.

After a disappointing experience at another Japanese restaurant in the Lake Charles area, we…read moredecided to try a place in Moss Bluff called Umami Kumo -- and I'm glad we did. The restaurant appears fairly new. It's on the smaller side, but very nice -- clean, neat, and welcoming. From the moment we sat down, it felt like a completely different experience. The sushi portions were generous, and every roll we ordered was full of flavor. Honestly, I was surprised. In a smaller town like Moss Bluff, I didn't go in with big expectations -- it was mostly about convenience. But this place exceeded them. We had a great meal, and while the bill was about what you'd expect, the quality made it absolutely worth it. If you're in the Lake Charles area -- and even if Moss Bluff isn't somewhere you'd normally think to go for Japanese food -- Umami Kumo is definitely worth a visit. Give it a shot

She regularly checked on us and was very friendly. I was surprised it only had 4 stars on here. The 15% gratuity is for the all-you-can-eat portion.

Never coming back. They charged a 15% tip on the bill without saying anything. No mention of a…read moremandatory gratuity, it also says it nowhere on the menu, I looked everywhere. Was going to leave a nice tip but opted not to since they added gratuity and then put "suggested gratuity recommendations" starting at 18% at the bottom of the receipt AFTER they charged tax and their mandatory tip. If I hadn't paid attention to the bill I'd have cluelessly tipped on top of theirs. I asked about it politely and say I was mildly frustrated they never said anything and they got all defensive and rude. What a scam, the food wasn't special either. There's definitely better sushi in town.

I think our server may have been new or very nervous. He didn't know much and did say much when he would approach our table and almost rushed us to order. The place can use some up keep and cleaning. But over all if you come to this kyotos, your best best if to sit on the habachi side for entertainment and wonderful and flavorful Food!

Brought family to the hibachi grill. First off I love the food but the easy fixes do not get…read morefixed! Our family sat down and my chair (out of all the chairs) and it made me lean forward and had to swap chairs. Waiter did get our orders for our drinks and gave us our salads and soups while we waited for more people to show up. We are a healthy family and 2 of us do NOT put lemon in our water. And we ALL love water rather than sodas. The WATER WAS AWFUL AND HAD A BAD AFTER TASTE. I even asked for bottle water which I would have paid for but they do NOT SERVE THE EASIEST THING CORRECTLY. Now the 2 of us need a soda. I waived and waived (my waiter was NO WHERE TO BE FOUND) and finally asked for 2 sodas and they sodas NEVER SHOWED UP... we were eating salads and the cook is here now and we STILL have NO DRINKS. After waiving to another waiter (not ours) I stated again and finally we received our sodas. Since I have a tough time swallowing I need drinks and my soda was empty instantly and it took forever for them to refill it as I had to repeat the awful process of getting a waiter. Waiter has vanished and barely see him. The cook was awesome and entertaining but I was do distracted talking to waiters and trying to survive (swallowing because I can choke with no drink) I missed very good parts of the hibachi because of this. Also when the cook got there we ALL had to move seats because one of our family members feet were constantly sliding because she sat at the end (by the cook) because the GREASE MADE IT VERY SLIPPERY Fix the water as it was awful and UN-DRINKABLE. And please have waiters NOT VANISH and especially purposely turn their back to you as they take other orders. Yes that happened also. And clean the floors.

Meh. Food was okay for me, but nothing you can't get at Panda Express…read more My BF, however, loved the General TSO chicken. He said it was the best he's ever had. Hence the three stars. We were at the casino for a concert, and wanted to go to Johnny Sanchez. When we got to JS's, for some reason they had a very limited menu. It was basically just appetizers and a burger. That would have been good for me, but my companions wanted more. I'm not a huge fan of Chinese food, so I ordered veggie fried rice, Mike ordered the aforementioned TSO chicken, and our friend Ruthie had beef with broccoli. She said it was good. The service was average. Not attentive enough for me-I had to flag her down to get to-go boxes and the check. Like I said: meh.

Went tonight and did the all you can eat and they put a sliver of fish in their roll more rice than anything. I miss the old sushi guy. Then the waiter was definitely on something, kept brining us the wrong food, wrong drinks, sat next to my girlfriend when I started complaining? Then the booth in front of me started complaining as well so we just left completely and went eat else where . you lost a loyal customer for sure. Sorry, but that ruined my night and I went somewhere else to eat all you can eat for 27 instead of 25 but at least they filled up the rolls with fish I should've took a picture. Not the one to do this but it has me livid with my experience

Walked by me 2 tables down and on the way to wherever he was going 3x without even a glance at me. Asked the hostess for a waiter and was immediately visited by a different young man. Initially very attentive. Got my order in. Got my sushi roll. Soon after I got my entree (chicken katsu) ... but that's all I got. No rice, no salad, no miso soup. No service after that either. Another 15 minutes passes and finally the manager on duty passes by and asks if everything is ok. Well... no, it's not. Got a 50% discount, which is fitting since I only got 1/2 a meal. Might try it again... food was worthy of a 2nd visit. But the service is ridiculously below par. You can hear the waitstaff and other restaurant staff yapping it up in the kitchen having some lovely conversations... which means the patrons are being ignored
