We decided to try Unami after seeing so many positive reviews, and it did not disappoint. We stuck with our usual go-to rolls--California roll, salmon, tuna, etc. - and everything was fresh, tasted good, and very reasonably priced. They also have a pretty wide menu beyond sushi, including Thai and Chinese dishes, which is a nice if you're dining with people who want something different. The only downside for us is the location- it's a bit of a drive from where we are. Otherwise, we'd probably find ourselves going more often. read more

Oh my GOSH, this is one of the best sushi restaurants in the Omaha area!!! Way better pricing than Blue and Hiro! The lunch special was 2 rolls for 11.50 OR 3 rolls for 14.50! The server was so kind and quick to get our drinks, tea and food order in! It's a very laid back spot, very quiet over the lunch hour during the week. The Philly roll was PHENOMENAL and the Crunchy was just as good, super fresh veggies and great cuts of fish used! read more

I must begin this by saying that I am a new convert to Japanese, Thai, and Chinese cuisine after traveling to Eastern Asia on a few work trips. I do not seek out these options, but Umami is a new favorite near the AF base. There is such a wide choice of options at a good price. They serve Thai, Japanese and Chinese and include a large selection of sushi. Thru Umami, I've found I like thick noodles and really enjoy the variety of options. Service was fast but not hovering. The decor is American (?)...lots of tvs with sports on. (Thumbsup!) I used to say that if I got stationed in Asia that I'd starve due to my food aversions. But, that's no longer the case and Umami is a *safe space* for new and seasoned Asian cuisine aficionados. :) Give it a try! read more

If you're going to get food from here then dine in. The food is great when it's fresh but delivery was terrible tonight. 25 min estimated delivery turned into 1hr, so my hot items were no longer hot. When I called and asked about my delivery I was told it was delivered but never had any notification/text/ring/knock....and then was told "well it was delivered have a good night"....thanks I'll enjoy my cold old food read more

Solid Japanese, Chinese, pan Asian , and sushi joint. Some of the sushi is very traditional, which is like hugging your grandma. The Chinese food is also traditional like Sesame Chicken. I got a salmon rice bowl that came with soup and salad. The soup choices are great! Egg drop, hot and sour, wonton and miso. I got the hot and sour which I like. . Lots of free parking! read more

This place is bussin! I'm a huge fan of their lunch bento box special. It's very economical and comes with a few sides and a main protein, very filling. I'm always treated well when I come in, and as a regular they even remember my name! I mostly grab takeout but I like the indoor vibes, the music isn't loud and there's booths and tables to dine in. read more

I tried this place for the first time after hearing a lot about it! It is a quick drive from Omaha and although it was busy, we got seated immediately. They have plenty of seating and very attentive service. They have quite an extensive menu featuring many different Asian cuisines. I tried the salmon flight which was great value as it comes with soup and salad of your choice along with soy salmon, smoked salmon, first salmon and spicy salmon roll. I enjoyed the spicy salmon roll with crunch tempura topping! The sashimi was pretty fresh and buttery. I would have liked a little more flavor variation between the sashimi but overall left feeling very full and satisfied! read more

This is the second time in 10 days we came back to the same sushi restaurant. Food are excellent. Service is good . Sushi & sashimi for two is $62 for a good deal ( you get 10 pc sushi , 10 pc sashimi, plus a crunchy roll , dynamite roll and manhattan roll ) . I ordered a blue drink cocktail for $10 . There was a line when we arrived at 6:50 pm but we got to sit down after 10 minute wait . My only complaint is that the wooden floor is slippery ( waxed ? ) plus some water on here here and there ( ice cubes that were dropped on the floor ) . It is a hazard to walk around if you have a disability or elderly. read more

11/10. If I could eat here every night I would. Service is always quick and friendly. And I love that it's very cozy. As someone who was born and raised on an island, I was pleasantly surprised at how great the quality of sashimi is here. The salmon flight is 100% the way to go. It melts in your mouth like butter. Of all the Japanese sushi places in Omaha, this one is my favorite! read more

Umami - Salmon flight! - Japanese Near Me - Bellevue, Nebraska

I really enjoy Umami. I've been in a handful of times and have never had a bad experience. I don't think their sushi is the best in the Omaha metro area, but it is good. I came during lunch on my most recent visit and got a Bento Box. This is definitely what I'll be getting going forward! The salmon was delicious and I really enjoyed the soup, salad, and gyoza too. The California Roll was underwhelming and I completely avoided the already browning "fresh" fruit, but otherwise it was great! read more

Always a solid place, consistent, best sushi in Bellevue! Always busy for a reason, Take out or eating inside, but we have never had to wait, they are turning tables over quickly. Their rolls and food always come out quick, hot, and correct! Prices can not be beat. Can't say anything bad about this place! Their chef has won multiple awards and all their newspaper articles are hanging up in the front, it's fun to check them out. read more

Just a solid place. Always busy for a reason. If you want sushi on a budget, my two rolls the NY and Boston were only $6 for like 7 of them. Their gourmet rolls I don't think are too bad priced either. Can't say anything bad about this place. read more

This place was soooo good. I can be a little picky about sushi depending on different textures and things, but this was so good. I thought both rolls were equally good and I tried some of my friends' rolls as well. The crab rangoons were okay. Not my favorite but not terrible. The interior is more casual it's a great spot for dinner with friends, but maybe not date night. Service was also really great. read more

Mediocre at Best I had high hopes for Umami given the strong reviews, but my experience was underwhelming. I ordered the Thai yellow curry, which came with a choice of sides--I went with white rice and miso soup. The curry itself was under-seasoned and unexpectedly came with tofu. The miso soup was fine, but I was surprised by how small the portion of rice was--definitely not enough to balance out the big bowl of curry. I also ordered the shrimp tempura roll and the spicy mango shrimp roll. The flavors weren't terrible, but they didn't stand out either. What really caught me off guard was the lettuce inside the shrimp tempura rolls--something I've never seen before. Not necessarily bad, just different and a little off-putting. Maybe I ordered the wrong things, but overall, the food didn't live up to the hype. It wasn't awful, just not memorable. Not sure I'd come back. read more

An Unforgettable Omakase Experience at Umami Asian Cuisine in Bellevue, Nebraska ! A few days ago, my family and I had the most incredible first-time omakase experience at a hidden gem of a Japanese restaurant in Bellevue--an experience we'll treasure forever. We were celebrating my son's graduation and wanted to do something truly special, and this absolutely exceeded all expectations. From the moment we walked in, we were warmly welcomed by Jay, one of the owners, who seated us with genuine hospitality and enthusiasm. Our master chef for the evening, Keen, was phenomenal--thoughtful, precise, and incredibly skilled in curating our culinary journey. As a family of four new to omakase, we weren't sure what to expect, but every course felt like a work of art. The ingredients were top-tier--fresh, delicate, and full of flavor. Chef Keen introduced each dish, often naming the fish and sharing little insights, which made the whole experience even more engaging. With every bite, we truly felt like we were tasting the sea--our palates transported on an unforgettable voyage. The full experience lasted about two hours with many beautifully crafted courses, each one better than the last. I highly recommend this for anyone who loves sashimi, sushi, or simply appreciates fine dining with meaning and intention behind every dish. Important Tip: This is a very special dining experience, so reservations are a must. We went on a Friday afternoon around 5 PM, but for a more intimate experience, I'd recommend going at a quieter time. Be sure to call ahead and book in advance! This was more than just a meal--it was a celebration, a memory in the making. We left with full hearts, satisfied stomachs, and stories we'll be retelling for years to come. Put this on your bucket list--you won't regret it. I'm including a few pictures of beautiful sushi plates from other orders for your reference. We didn't order those! read more

Usually have no complaints for the sushi. It's fair quality and quantity for the price. I've ordered tempura before that did disappoint, maybe a but old and refried too many times so it was quite oily. We go often and usually have a good time and the lunch price can't be beat read more

Was very pleasantly surprised with Umami restaurant. The place is nicely decorated, seems high scale so I was shocked at how affordable it is. I got the 3 sushi roll lunch special for $14.50! Insane value. There were also plenty of varieties to choose from. I chose the eel, shrimp tempura, and Spicy salmon all of which was delicious. I am just visiting but if I lived here then I would be a regular for sure. read more

It's always a great time here in umami. I especially love their sashimi and raw seafood. They're one of the best that I've had in and near Omaha area. The chef is very skilled, and the seafood is so fresh. They even have cooked Japanese food like ramen, hibachi, teriyaki l, katsu dishes. But my favorite is always the raw ones. The people there are friendly and I've always had a good time going there with my partner or with my friends. Highly recommended if you haven't tried. read more

The Omaha Sushi Project ventured out to Bellevue for Umami! Place had a great vibe and the service was pretty great too! We normally get a classic roll and two specials but their classics were not super exciting so we just got 3 specials and they were all decently priced! My sister liked them all but I truly felt like they all fell flat. My favorite was the 1504 Bellevue Roll because it was the most fun and interesting. The rest just didn't have enough flavor for me. Nothing wrong with the food just no wow factor for me. Follow along with the Omaha Sushi Project collection! Presentation - 2/5 Crunch - 2/5 (basic like Hyvee) Taste- 2.5/5 Variety of menu - 2/5 Price - $$ read more

Stopped by for a quick work lunch and it pleasantly surprised me. I was not expecting anything crazy, but the environment was clean and quiet and the food was good quality (not the best out there, but for the price it was very good). They had so many options on the menu from hibachi with rice to curry to pad thai to sushi rolls. Their lunch deals are also very enticing. The service was also very good - we felt taken care of the entire meal. read more

great ambiance, excellent food! Eric was a great bartender. Definitely coming back!

Best food by far our favorite place! Great food lot to choose from when gluten free and dairy free. My favorite restaurant to go too.

We ordered from Umami through a delivery service tonight. We've ordered from them before and thought the food was wonderful. But this time they surpassed themselves in service as well as in the tastiness of the food. My daughter has a gluten allergy that can affect the quality of her life a lot. The fact that you can indicate a gluten allergy on the order page is wonderful. But then, even better, the restaurant called us to let us know a couple of the items we had ordered could not be made gluten-free. Did we want to change them? And a couple of the dishes required components on the side in order to be GF. Did we want them to do that? When the food arrived, all gluten-free dishes were clearly labeled. It made my daughter so happy to see that. And then the food itself was superb. To have top-shelf, tasty food on top of a caring staff made this a superlative experience for us. Thank you, Umami. We appreciate you and thank you for your delicious food and excellent service. You will be our go-to restaurant when ordering online. read more

Outstanding quality food and customer service. Jay is the one you always see greeting guests and taking phone orders. He always remembers your name and is quick, efficient and the friendliest person you will ever meet. He will offer suggestions and it's always great. The food is fantastic. And when I do stray from my favorites, it's always great! We are so luck to have such a high quality restaurant in Bellevue. People come from Lincoln just for Umami's in Bellevue. read more

Met a friend for lunch. Was seated right away at 12:30. Their full menu looked amazing but couldn't pass on their lunch menu offerings. I had the three roll combo a large number to choose from I enjoy raw sushi so chose the Philadelphia roll, Salmon with cucumber Roll and Tuna Jalapeño roll. Needless to say had leftovers. My friend had the salmon bento box that came with salad and soup California roll, rice and Goya dumplings. Busy but not loud service was fast. read more

We ordered the sushi for two that came with a salad and soup. The salad was underwhelming with iceberg lettuce and bland dressing. The miso soup tasted ok but contained very little tofu (about two small pieces). The sushi tasted fine initially but unfortunately it was served on a hot plate so it got warm fast. The plate was literally hot to the touch as if it came straight from the dishwasher. It quickly became unappetizing. The bathroom and floors need a good scrubbing. I slipped multiple times. If you go, be sure to wear non-skid soles or opt for takeout. The service was excellent! read more

This restaurant was recommended by several people and I can see why! If you are a sushi lover, this is your restaurant. This will be my go-to sushi place from now on. AMBIANCE I really enjoyed the feeling of this restaurant. I had reservations for 5:30 and it only got busier as the night went on. It's clean, there is plenty of parking and it's easy to find. SERVICE The service was incredibly fast. Menus and waters were brought immediately and it only took about 10 mins after ordering to receive the food. The waiter was attentive and polite. FOOD Everything was great! Appetizers, soup, rolls and drinks. The thing I really loved was that their sushi rolls weren't cut big. They were smaller much more manageable sizes to eat. PRICE The price was very reasonable based on the quality of the food and the service provided. I would have expect to pay a little more to be honest. read more

This is one of my favorite sushi places in the Omaha/Bellevue area. The sushi is fresh and prepared well. The prices are reasonable. I love to get the sashimi lover entree with some hot and sour soup. If you live in Omaha, you won't regret the drive to Bellevue for this sushi. The service was great and fast. The place is often busy because it's a popular spot. It's great for a group or dinner with friends. read more

Top tier sushi. Nigiri / Sashimi is better than anything else in town at a super reasonable price point. The staff is super knowledgeable, they serve a wide selection of high quality fish, and there is always something new to try on the seasonal menu. I always see the owner working hard behind the counter, so he obviously cares a lot about his restaurant and the quality of the food. No surprise that it always hits the spot. read more
