Very nicee sushiii i love their special rolls. And the service Is very nicee. I came with ny family today and i loved it.

My fiancé and I ordered some sushi from here via DoorDash, so I cannot speak of service. I ordered a Snowy Mountain Roll and the Alaskan roll. The Snowy Mountain Roll had salmon, cucumbers and avocado and it was topped with spicy salmon. Sorry, I forgot to take a picture of this one. It was good but it wasn't great. I also felt the rice-to-fish ratio was not the best. The Alaska roll was decent. My fiancé had the spicy kani roll and spicy shrimp roll. He said it smelled a little fishy, but it didn't taste "off" or anything like that. One and done for us read more

From the moment we walked into Umami Sushi & Bar at 1957 Middle Country Rd in Centereach, we knew we were in for something special. The space strikes that perfect balance: polished yet relaxed, modern without feeling pretentious -- ideal for a date night, a family outing, or just a sushi-craving solo visit. What really stood out was the customer service. The staff greeted us warmly, made sure our drinks were refreshed, and guided us through the menu with genuine enthusiasm (not just rote "what can I get you" service). It's rare to feel this level of attentiveness in a busy sushi spot, and it really set the tone for the evening. Now, onto the sushi -- simply outstanding. Every roll and piece of nigiri felt thoughtfully prepared: the fish tasted fresh, the rice had good texture, the presentation was clean and appealing. The specialty rolls offered fun flavor profiles yet didn't sacrifice sushi integrity. Whether you're a sushi purist or a roll-lover, there's something here to impress. One local reviewer put it succinctly: "The service is very prompt ... The food was delicious. I highly recommend the Miso soup and the Volcano roll." JCS Sushi Bar Chinese +2 Restaurantji +2 For us, the standout moment was when a simple nigiri plate -- beautifully sliced salmon and tuna -- arrived with that delicate, almost buttery texture you hope for. Followed by a roll with a little heat and crunch that hit just the right note. Ambience, too, gets props -- clean lighting, comfortable seating, and the sense that the kitchen cares about what's leaving the pass. If you're looking for a sushi place where service is as good as the food, Umami delivers. Whether you go for a full meal or this place becomes "our go-to", you'll walk away planning your next visit. Highly recommended. read more

Small portions.handrolls had very little in them. The service was not great. As far as all you can eat sushi restaurants go to Kira in Ronkonkoma is much better: bigger portions, better service. The ginger and wasa had to be ordered as other sushi places bring them to the table along with tea the ginger was cut in little bits. You end up ordering more because of the portions. Rather counterproductive for profits. .find a better place.totally dosappointing read more

Food is good, according to their price. Salmon is better, tuna smells like spoiled and fishy. Service is ok. Though they charged credit card fee without notice, that makes me feel uncomfortable. read more

Went there with a friend this week. The food was good. We actually really enjoyed it. However, we were both shocked at the lack of interaction. The servers gave not even a smile or hello, but not even eye contact. I'm so not rude to servers because I used to work in the industry, but I literally told a man 'eye contact please'. We were just so surprised how they would drop food down and off they were. It's not like they were busy at all. I know that the food is the most important thing, but even a tiny bit of interaction like a hello or here you go... if the owners the owners are reading this teach the staff basic interaction-hello how are you , here you go - shit like that. It goes a long way and the service will make much better tips. I usually tip 20 to 30% but I found myself only wanting to give 16 read more

Super cool place for AYCE sushi! $31 pp for everything, including a wide menu of appetizer cooked items. You order on an Ipad and send it off instantly to the kitchen and they bring everything quickly! Good selection of rolls and fun kitchen items. I felt their rolls and cooked food were better than Kira but their sashimi was not as fresh. Both very similar though! This place has more seating and is more well lit compared to Kira which has more dark bar vibes, read more

All you can eat sushi, sign me up! We came here for a friend's who was visiting out of town birthday. We were able to easily make reservations and because of this we were seated right away. I am glad we did because a Friday night here was hopping. You can tell this is a place where people come to have a good time. It's also a great place for groups. You are given a tablet to order from and after submitting your order the items are brought to your table. And fairly quickly for that matter. I had a coconut martini which was super tasty. We also ordered shumai, pork buns, and an assortment of rolls. All items were super tasty. And all for $32 a person (drinks not included). All around a great deal! For an all you can eat spot, the service was stellar. I would definitely come back here if in the area! read more

These reviews were either yay or nay so you ccamn decide for yourself. Decided to try this AYCE, Friday dinner and weekends are $2 more than the other days of the week. Lunch is less and kids are even less. Ordering Process: The person asked if you been here or if it's your first time. It's our first time so he took the time to explain the process. Basically drinks are extra. You ordered your items (limit 10 pieces/item for 2 people) then hit the submit button on the pad. We received the first order and order more item. You get the idea until you want stop or if someone orders dessert then you get a check too. Food: The items were either a hit or miss for me. There was an item that was fishy in the first order - Ick. The inari was missing the rice in the middle. Other than these items every other item order afterwards was fine to eat. It wasn't the best nor the worse place for me. Limited items for sashimi. Several roll options, hand roll options, and appetizers as well as dessert fruit or ice cream. It was decent though not memorable except for ordering via the pad. Service: very functional and effective. Everyone drops off food and pick up empty dishes though not there to be friendly. Beverage: additional cost. We ordered tea which is lipton tea ($1.75 each). Parking lot: plenty of parking spots. read more

This place used to be honestly a good 3/5 stars, not sure what happened they went down hill major... I'm NEVER the one to really write a review but this one needed it!! Absolutely terrible customer service. They are beyond rude and don't care about anything on there phones 24-7 at the front counter and Me and my wife walked in and she has an eating disorder. I was craving sushi she obviously can't eat it. And they made it clear that if she did eat, they would charge for the all you can eat option which was $50 bc that's what I was getting. Which at first I said of course that's fine. Then they came back to the table 3-4 times saying the same thing. Which I then got annoyed and told them i understood the first time and as well as they kept staring at the table making sure my wife wasn't eating which made her feel uncomfortable. Keep in mind my wife again has a EATING Disorder and can't eat Sushi even if she wanted too... The food made me sick. It's not fresh at all.. the fish smells a little bit. Some of the rice is hard in the rolls. there alcohol is $5 vodka you can feel the headache building which each sip. and honestly I can go on on about this place absolutely trash 0/5 if I can I leave that rating.. AVOID AT ALL COST. read more

Easy, quick service, and delicious. Great place to dine in and take out. Good selection of options for every appetite.

For AYCE it is a great deal. You order on the iPad they provided for you so it is great not to have to wait when you are ready for more food. The food is decent and fresh for AYCE. Nice ambiance inside. Staff is great. read more

"The tuna sushi tasted very fishy and seemed spoiled. I couldn't eat it. Please check the quality of the tuna being used."

Disappointing sushi and service. Ordered pieces of sushi and sashimi and a couple of special rolls, fish looked dull and very dry and tasted exactly the way it looked. Asked if I could take ice cream home and the waiter came back with my bill with the price for the ice cream included. He did not mention that I would be charged so I told him I no longer wanted it, he sucked his teeth and walked away. The one good thing was the hot food from the kitchen. Otherwise not a good sushi experience. read more

Ordering is all done via iPad. I'm glad there are some sashimi options even for lunch, especially for low-carbers. I believe lunch lasts until 3:30pm on weekdays ($19.99/pp as of the last time I went, which was a few weeks ago). Limited service, since they mostly just bring the items to the table, all interaction is done through iPad, including requesting the first glasses of water for the table. However, the food was good for the most part. I've been here a few times, and only 1 time the salmon sashimi seemed a little off. All other times, things seemed good and fresh. Some of the best things is their fried items. Very nicely crisped and hot when you get it. One of the best items that I know is a filler and usually a buffet 'no-no' -- French fries. But they are the delicious coated fries. If you know, you know. We also get a bunch of tempura veggies and shrimp. The udon dishes (stir fry or soup) come with way too much vegetables lol. I left pictures of all the available items on the lunch menu, I do think $19.99 is a decent price as long as you can eat decent amounts. If you're the type to be full from 1 roll, maybe you should just order a la carte. The ambiance is pretty nice, bathrooms have been clean every time I've gone. read more

Place was very nice, but the service was not good. They weren't really friendly and never came back to ask if we were OK and we also never received our appetizer. We came here because we were in the area...sushi was good, but probably wouldn't go back because of service.( in the photo we got shrimp tempura spicy shrimp and spicy crab). read more
