Had the chicken curry bento. Great portion. Miso was decent.(I'm usually not a fan) pot stickers were crispy and delicious. Chicken was perfectly fried. Curry was excellent. Service was great. Super clean! read more

Super clean, contemporary Asian restaurant. It has a real minimalist feel like a Korean cafe. It felt super chill to walk into. The food is all Japanese-style. You have poke bowls. We got the rainbow poke, which had lots of salmon, tuna, and avocado in addition to a number of veggies. Not on the menu was also a good amount of mango for a hit of sweetness. It was all high quality. It was a huuuuge bowl, too. Definitely worth the $18 considering how much similar quality bowls would go for. There are bento entrees. We got the chicken katsu curry bento, which had a solid portion of chicken katsu with a simple, yet flavorful, Japanese curry along with miso soup, a salad, fried dumplings, and rice. It was a healthy portion of food, and I had to take home half of the chicken and rice. There are also a number of appetizers, donburis (rice bowls), and ramen. The Japanese-style cheesecake for dessert was light, inexpensive, and a good way to end the meal. Not too sweet, iykyk. The family that runs this place is super sweet. They were friendly, attentive, and timely. This would be a great place for a more casual date or a solid bulk meal for all the food you get. read more

Great atmosphere, great traditional Asian food, great service. The miso soup was really nice: first sip and I wanted to have everything else with it. Loved the crispy chicken katsu!! Veggie rolls very fresh and tasty! Would come back for sure. read more

Pleasantly surprised at how cute it is inside and the food was great. We ordered rainbow poke over salad no rice. The fish and veggies were all very fresh and tasty. The tonkotsu ramen was rich and full flavored. My only negative was the tonkotsu was a bit salty. I add some of my water to tone it down. As for the hot chili oil I ordered on the side .... Once it hit the back of my throat I started to choke... it was hot! Definitely coming back with my sister they have hot and cold sake! read more

Umai appears to have recently opened, and it is an excellent addition to the area. Super clean and layback. My boyfriend and I were looking for a light lunch that still offered bold, unique flavors, so we decided to try this new-to-us Japanese restaurant. The service was prompt, with our food arriving ten minutes after ordering. I ordered a bento box, which I found to be a great value given the generous portion size. The chicken katsu was tender and juicy, with a well-seasoned, flavorful crust. The bento included a wide variety of items, making it a very satisfying meal. My boyfriend ordered the donburi bowl. While enjoyable, we felt it did not offer the same level of value as the bento box. Overall, the bento boxes provide the best balance of portion size and price. The little barbecue-style sauce that came with my bento was amazing on the chicken, enhancing the overall flavor of the dish. I would certainly return to Umai in the future when I am in the mood for Japanese cuisine. read more

First time trying this restaurant. We went after lunchtime, and it was empty. The atmosphere was clean and spacious. I ordered the tonkatsu ramen and asked for it spicy, even though it's not listed as an option on the menu, the server kindly offered it. We also ordered egg rolls as an appetizer, which came out fresh and crunchy. read more

The chicken katsu was fine, nothing special, just fine. What killed our experience was that the teriyaki chicken tasted microwaved.

The food was okay. Poke barely had any fish in it. The miso soup barely had any flavor. It said it was spicy but it really wasn't. The prices were a little steep for Salem. No one in besides my bf and I. Wouldn't recommend read more

Umai indeed! I had gotten the katsu curry don. The generous portion was savory and satisfying. The service was great. The dining area was also clean and comfortable. I'm happy that this area has a quality Japanese restaurant. read more

This tucked away place is a sparkling gem addition to the Keizer dining scene! A Wednesday evening meal was on the cards and a chance to try a new place. The restaurant looked spotless! Yes, there were a few dishes waiting to be gathered, but with only one server doing multiple jobs, she was providing exceptional service. There were about 6 or 7 other parties. I was seated almost immediately on my arrival. I was playing it safe for my first visit with a Teriyaki Chicken Bento box. There was more tasty chicken than I could finish. The potstickers were flavorful and not over or under cooked! I will be back soon. I just hope that this place does not get over run with customers like another sushi place just a bit south. Welcome to Keizer, and Thank You for creating this wonderful space! read more

Thought we would give this new restaurant a try. Placed a to-go order. The order was for an appetizer of gyoza and tonkotsu ramen. The gyoza was excellent, however the tonkotsu was not. One would think they owed shares in a noodle factory. The dish consisted of approximately 80% noodles, 10% broth and the remainder, approximately 3 ounces, 2- thin slices of pork, a boiled egg, some garnish and that's it. Really overpriced at $17.00. A little disappointing. We probably won't go back. read more
