The service was excellent and very attentive. We came in with three adults and three kids. The staff was so kind and brought out a candy treat for the kids to pick after. Large sushi menu! It was all so fresh and delicious. We got vegetable fried rice for the kids and it was all so freshly made we were genuinely surprised too! The vibe inside is cozy and welcoming too. Great spot and great service! read more

Umi Sushi - Japanese Near Me - Shelby Township, Michigan

I have been craving sushi! So when my son said he wanted some as well, I was super excited! Sushi date? Yes please! I love spending quality time with him! So we bonded over Sushi. This place came highly recommend by my favorite foodie, so I knew it would be high quality! I may have gone a tad overboard with now much I ordered but we were not disappointed. We ordered 8 shrimp, 8 crab, and 8 salmon. My son's favorite was the crab and mine was the shrimp. We started with Meso soup which was a first for my 16 year old. He loved it! The service was great and the place was clean. It was quite busy for lunch! We are already talking about what we will get when we come back. We did go a little overboard as we returned home with 5 left over Sushi. But I love a midnight snack! read more

Umi Sushi, an absolute local staple for me. I highly recommend their tempura rolls! The service and ambiance really makes you feel at home. I've been a customer here for years and will continue to be. I hope you can enjoy it as much as I do. read more

Great location! Upscale asian decor with a full sushi bar. The sushi rolls are good, sashimi was well prepared and fresh. The star today was the udon - oh my word. Give me a to go container just of the broth! Deep, rich flavor.. the noodles were perfect. Thick, with a good chew and seasoned well. Definitely will be back! read more

Umi Sushi - Great place and staff!! Highly recommend! - Japanese Near Me - Shelby Township, Michigan

We got takeout; I ordered some nigiri and gyoza on top of some specialty rolls. The nigiri was fresh, salmon and the yellowtail were especially great! The pictures from yelp all looked so amazing, so I hope the next time I try it, I'm in the restaurant. The red dragon roll was good, not great. The firecracker roll was my favorite from this bunch. There are a ton of intriguing rolls I'm looking forward to. read more

Don't know what other people are talking about. This place sucks.! The hibachi is terrible. The tempura sushi roll wasn't good. I will certainly be looking elsewhere for my next Japanese experience. read more

I've ordered out here a time or two, overall decent. The service is great, the workers I've met are very kind and efficient! The restaurant is smaller but I liked the decor. The sushi, however, is just decent. It's not bad in a pinch but I've defiantly had much much better. I also noticed almost every sushi had cucumber and/or cream cheese, personal preference but I'm not a huge fan of either if the sushi isn't super well made- they do let you take it out though which is great. I haven't had anything but their sushi. read more

Open until 9:45pm on a Saturday. It's located at the Cherry Creek corporate park. It's next to Starbucks. We ordered two house salads, lobster delight, crunchy california, no masago, fiesta, under the sea, no masago. Miso soup is complimentary. The house salad isn't too bad, dressing was alright, watery, not very gingery. The miso was decent. The sides of sriracha is $0.75 each, expensive for the small condiment. The fiesta is the best of the 4 rolls. It's a huge bite of a roll too. The crunchy california isn't special, no so crunchy at all. The under the sea is okay, nothing special either. The lobster delight could be better, it tastes like a burnt roll from the torch for sure. Service was good. Staff are all nice. Heidi was attentive. The manager also checked up on us as well. We both liked the fiesta roll the best out of the 4 rolls for sure. The total bill was $59.74 and the $1.50 for two small ramekins of sriracha listed. Kind of cheap to charge for sriracha when we don't use any soy sauce at all. That's why the tip is less when we get nickel and dimed for sides of sriracha. We could have brought a bottle of our own then. read more

Good flavor and fresh Sushi, with a good presentation. Placed the order over the phone, went over a couple questions and items prior to order. Got a pick up time as it was a fairly large order. Everything was ready at pickup and very supportive staff that took excellent care3 of us. read more

Delicious, always fresh and the waitress is very sweet and kind. This is my fave little quick spot to run to when in craving fresh sushi. My one tiny complaint is that the music is in this place is always very loud it's hard to speak to the person your with...other than that tiny issue, 5 stars all the way! read more

Very good food! A pleasant place to sit an and watch people. The staff was nice, not extremely friendly but nice. The fish is fresh which is all you should care about. I think they need to cut down on the menu some. They gave me 3 types of menus to look at not something I needed after a long day. Other wise I will be back a 2 weeks for more. read more

So many great things to choose from and the portions were large so we ended up with leftovers to bring home - which normally never happens with Sushi!! They have a nice dining room area and we felt safe during the COVID-19 situation. Employees all wore masks and guests must wear masks when walking around in the restaurant. It's small and cozy. It seems like they do a good carry out business too - so it took a little while to get our food. It was worth the wait. read more

I ordered this food on a Friday evening to be delivered to my mothers house on Saturday (as an early Mother's Day treat). I wish they were open on Sunday. I'm in Florida but I wanted her to be surprised! I asked the delivery driver to say, "Happy Mother's Day!" When they delivered the food. My mother said they did just that! Awesome! The food was predicted to be delivered between 5:30 and 5:50pm. It was about 10 minutes early! Awesome! My mother is on the keto diet so I asked for all of her food to be without rice! The chirachi order comes with rice (so I asked for no rice) and that's how it came. The masago came with cucumber underneath instead of rice! The unagi had rice underneath but my mom was able to take it off. No worries! She said all of the food was fresh and fish-smell-FREE! She was very surprised and enjoyed every bit of it! Great job! When I come to visit I'll definitely try this place out for myself! Thank you! Only complaint was that I paid $43.85 with tip+delivery fee. Seemed a bit high for the amount of food she received... but I'm glad she enjoyed it! read more

I liked their Shrimp and noodles. They were nice and gave us appetizers and dessert. The lights went out when we were there but that wasn't their fault. The appetizer of crab meat tasted really good and the dessert of mochi ice cream also was really good. read more

Umi sushi is my go-to sushi place. I used to work across the street and I would come in here for lunch every single time. The service is amazing, all the workers are so nice, the food is amazing as well. The food is always fresh. The sushi always tastes super fresh the ingredients are always fresh. read more

Been coming here for years and never disappointed. Fresh and filling . Portions are large compared to sushi at other places. We have tried few other local places and no one comes close to Umi. They used to give salad with sushi order but may have stopped that but still worth it. The salad is so good. Today I tried a bento box with chicken teriyaki and it was so good and fresh. The twister is an amazing tempura roll. read more

I have to start by saying that I am no sushi connoisseur and Umi Sushi is good but not great. I'd honestly give Umi 3.5 stars but rounding up to 4, rather than rounding down to 3, since the fish was fresh and service good. A lot of the their basic rolls had cucumber, and it just doesn't go with a salmon avocado or a spicy yellowtail scallion roll. Similarly one of their specialty rolls that my colleague ordered and I tried was topped with lots of shaved imitation crab meat and it just wasn't for me. Miso soup was A-oK. I got a piece of fatty yellowtail and it was fresh. There is no beer or wine. read more

Restaurant was nice, staff was kind. Food was bland, i ordered 3x shrimp tempura rolls, lacked major flavors i was looking for. 1x crunchy California roll was good, had good flavor. 1x Fried BBQ chicken roll, came out okay very large pieces. Reasonably priced, would probably return to try again in the future. read more

The sushi here is good - but the othet dishes we tried were not sarisfactory. We tried 2 different sushi roles (chef special and Umi sushi) - both were good. However, the noodle dishes my son and I tried were pretty aweful (yaki udon noodle - one with chicken and the other with beef). My other son tried beef hibachi. The main issue with the meat dishes was the fact that the meat was overcooked and too tough to chew (both chicken and beef). We tried the banana dessert at the end - we couldn't finish eating it (the batter had no flavor). Will be sticking to Sushi only, if I'm back here. Both the servers were very nice and courtious - we liked the ambience as well. read more

It was subpar sushi. The put soo much rice to maximize their profits which took the fun out of the food

You might think there's good sushi, but then there's Umi. Best sushi I have ever had, no contest... and I've had a lot of sushi. I was first introduced to Umi in 2012. They really shine in their take out experience and with dine-in. Small and cozy dining room which was recently remodeled. My absolute favorite is their crunchy California roll. It's simple but bold and their spicy mayo is the best I've had. The staff are so friendly here as well. The sushi chefs make all the sushi out in the open behind a sushi bar and are always smiling and greeting guests when they walk buy. You can't talk about Umi without mentioning their buy one get one free "sushi of the day." Each day of the week there is a new sushi of the day that if you purchase one you get the second free. I also recommend the cooked salmon pizza. Now with COVID limiting dine-in experiences I would highly recommend a stay in date night with Umi sushi. Umi won me over and I will continue to be back again and again! read more

I came here because many reviews on Google showed positive reviews and experiences, and I wanted to try it. My first impression of this restaurant is its dining area was really extravagant. The almond wood finish and the icicle lighting were the two things that stood out most to me. The menu was also really helpful because it showed a photo of every sushi roll that was offered (I have not seen that before at a sushi restaurant). On the other hand, the sushi was a different story. My biggest issue is the sushi was loosely rolled. It was difficult to grab while using the chopsticks because many were falling apart. I was really looking forward to the lobster tempura roll, but it was a let down. The roll was overly covered with the lobster sweet sauce; it covered the flavor of the lobster, avocado, cucumber, and cream cheese that was in the sushi roll. I also ordered the Julian drum because one of the ingredients in it was sesame seeds. This was different and I had to try it. But I would have been better off not trying it because there was nothing really great about this sushi roll. Overall, I was not really satisfied with my experience here. It could be something like a new sushi chef was recently hired and still needed more training. But I am not sure and cannot sit here and speculate why the sushi I got was not up to par. Maybe if I go there again, I may have a better experience. read more

THE WORST EVER!!!! The waitress so so rude. I tried to take things off of my sushi like avocado and put jalapeño instead and she kept saying extra charge. As I'm ordering she's answering the phone and wasted half my lunch break. I ended up walking out. This isn't the first time. She kept trying to make me order something else. Just weird!! Never will return!!! read more

Great sushi. Been going to this place for years and they are always consistent in how well they make their sushi. Fyi, they add a good amount of sauce to their sushi and it's very good read more

Amazing sushi!!! Umi has always been so goood to me!! I think we dine in or get carry out at least once a week here.. fish is always so fresh!! I love that they do a "buy one get one free roll of the day" they always change it up too! I recommend the salmon on the beach.. spicy mexican, samurai,rock and roll, and yum yum.. those are my top favorites! But honestly every roll at Umi is delicious because of the freshness! The only thing is they do not accept American Express!! But other then that.. I love Umi! read more

Ordered take out by walk in. Waited an hour and then they made the order wrong. Did not have the patience to wait any longer. People came in and ate and left while I waited. Second time this kind of thing has a happened. Will not return. Sushi is average at best, but they do have noodle dishes and are close which is why I came back a second time. I'll drive a bit next time. read more

Umi Sushi - Chef Mic - Japanese Near Me - Shelby Township, Michigan

Such a cute little sushi restaurant. It's small, but comfortable. There's tables for two, four, and even a bar where you can watch the sushi chefs make your rolls. The tables are divided by bamboo (?) dividers. The overall aesthetic of the room is very Asian / Japanese specific. Even the tables and chairs. You are greeted as soon as you walk in with enthusiasm and happiness, especially if it seems you're a regular. With order of meal, you get miso soup. The soup is more on the mild side of flavour (less miso) but that's how I like mine. If you prefer yours a little stronger then it might not be to your liking. The women's restroom is cleanly and spacious. Not much to say besides it's not trashed and is even decorated appropriately and modestly. The food is set up and arranged nicely. Part of eating sushi is its appearance I think, and it's very appealing. Both rolls are delicious! You can taste each of the flavours and texture in the food in each bite and it's extremely satisfying. I think the only negative thing is the tv that's there when you first walk in, it feels very out of place. Maybe if it was playing an Asian station? Or just placed elsewhere, I feel it would be better. It has no impact otherwise. Maybe some ambient music instead of a tv playing. Oh, and when the door opens it gets suddenly bright inside, but that's also something that's easily overlooked and lacks relevance. I wish I lived by here so I could come back again. Edit: I just want to say the cut of eel on the dragon rolls is amazing?? It's not too thick or thin and there's just enough rice?? I'm so amazed honestly LOL. read more

When you're in need of sniffling, sneezing, coughing, aching, stuffy head, fever so you can rest medicine what do you do? What do you do?!?!??! You have to wasabi!!! My buddy, my pal was a sniffling, congested, sinus headache mess so we decided to get some wasabi into her system and the best and truest way to do this is? Devouring sushi, and in this case some awesome sushi. Sushi is a delicate matter, if I do say so. Even the slightest deviation can be the difference from fantastic and mediocre sushi. Personally I am one of those who loves the extra saucy style and when you are a fan of this, there is a certain expectation to the flavors and spices. Too much mayo and you're doomed, too little mayo and you're doomed, under fry the tempura and you're doomed, over fry it and (you guessed it) you're doomed and so on and so forth for all eternity. Ordered my favorite (the Yum Yum) but decided to try something new. They have a daily special buy one get one and today's was an eel. I've always been too squeamish to try eel and octopus. Texture is a big deal for my dining enjoyment and I never imagined that those two textures would be appealing. Mark that WRONG box because deep-fried texture becomes irrelevant. Both were excellent. They were tempura style, the sauce was perfect and I couldn't eat them fast enough. We also ordered edamame, which was very standard, nothing special about it. It would have been nice if my dinner mate wasn't playing Candy Crush the entire meal, but the food was so good it didn't matter. So go ahead and bunch your chocolate squares, I'm having sushi! I have always had a good experience here and will come back here every time I'm in need of sushi this side of town. read more
