I wasn't expecting to find someplace good to eat off the interstate in Terre Haute as my sister and I drove to Columbus but when I checked yelp I saw that this place was high rated. Well after eating there I would say the high rating is well deserved. I ordered sushi favorites of mine (ikura, hamachi, tuna, salmon) and they were all good. My sister got one of their signature salads which she was happy with. I wish I could remember exactly what we ordered but I think that it is the kind of place that everything on the menu is probably well made. read more

We should have known better than to go for Japanese in Terra Haute. We ordered some appetizers and sushi. None of it tasted good or fresh. Very overpriced for grocery' store quality sushi, over $20 for some specialty rolls! Service is also not in keeping with high prices. read more

Umi Grill is a highly favored tradition for us! I called ahead and requested a booth that we had on our first anniversary years ago and they were very nice to oblige us with the same cute little spot we enjoyed when I moved to the area. We planned our rolls before we arrived by using Yelp and FB pics others had posted. It saved a lot of time for us and the wait staff. Some were ones we had enjoyed before and four were made new favorites.We loved our waiter who was personable and so willing to help us. read more

Umii Grill - Bento box with teriyaki shrimp. - Japanese Near Me - Terre Haute, Indiana

Umi Grill and Sushi Bar is a fantastic restaurant to enjoy tasty sushi rolls, delicious udon noodles, perfectly seasoned fried rice, and more in Terre Haute, Indiana. If you haven't had the chance to try udon noodles, you must visit Umi! The large Nabeyaki Udon noodle bowl was packed to the brim and served with Shrimp & Vegetable Tempura for only around $15. The fresh Umi House Salad is served with star shaped carrots and costs around $5. I didn't order sushi, but I heard great reviews from the colleagues at my table. The lighting effects and ambience is open, unique, and welcoming. The server was very friendly and gave us plenty of time to order and enjoy our meals. Highly recommend this spot! read more

I had a late lunch at Umii grill. This restaurant stands out far and above any place I have eaten in Terre Haute. The food was outstanding, the service impeccable and the cleanliness of the entire place was perfectly clean. I will return as often as my waistline allows. Yummy food. read more

This place is a lot of peoples favorite. I've been a good amount and will continue to try different things as I visit again with locals that love it. If you are looking for fresh, simple, authentic sushi, it's not the place for you. If you like an Americanized role, tempura, and mayo then you'll probably love it. I've tried tuna, shrimp, crab, steak rolls here and majority of them are fried and smothered in a mayo sauce that overwhelms the actual roll. The most talked about rolls, the Verve and Dr Singh, are good don't get me wrong. I personally wouldn't order them though. The Verve is swimming in mayo and the Dr Singh is a great assortment, but I prefer simpler sushi. The tuna roll I've had from there was filled with mushy tuna that looked like it had been through a meat grinder - I wouldn't recommend. The service is always great and quick. Ambiance is relaxed and nice. read more

Delicious and can't wait to go again! We ordered the grilled sea bass, a shrimp tempura roll, and the cowboy roll, and everything was amazing! The sea bass and sauce on it were just so soft and buttery. The menu was kind of confusing about the sides that it came with. It said it came with Asparagus, Mango, and a salad. When that plate came out, it had the sea bass, and then a cold salad on the side, the asparagus, mango, tomato, and avocado were dumped on top of the salad. Kinda of disappointing since the menu made it sound like a side of cooked asparagus and mango. It definitely tasted good, the menu just wasn't clear. The sushi rolls were the best I've ever had. I don't know how they prepare their sushi rice but it was pillowy soft and perfect texture. I wish we would have just ordered all sushi instead of ordering an entree. The staff were very friendly and helpful. I really appreciated that they were all dressed professionally and neatly. The interior was clean and nice. I did read some previous reviews that the seating feels really tight and not very private, and I would agree a little bit, but it was something I wouldn't have noticed unless I read other people's comments about it. Overall - definitely 5 out of 5 stars! Great flavors, menu choices, and great staff. read more

Got the fried rice and a plate of sushi on doordash and they gave me enough rice to last me for three days. Absolutely insane portion size, much more than I expected. Also I had gotten the shrimp tempura roll, it was the shrimp out of the box from sysco or wherever, but most places serve this. Wasn't bad but I thought by their menu that they would make it from scratch. Also ordered sashimi and had great taste by itself and also another roll I completely forgot what it was, but I shared it with another person and they ate it all and they loved it as well. Will definitely come back or order out again. In a world made of fake meat or soy meat they seem like a little bit of a healthier alternative. read more

I don't know why I was told this was the best restaurant around. Service was good but the food was overpriced and the soda was flat. The shrimp fried rice had zero taste. Not a fan of this place. read more

I'm updating my review from 2 years ago and adding a star back to Umi. Maybe that's because I know there are only a few good restaurants in town now and Umi falls in to that. I consider Umi a "nice but not the nicest" dinner out in Terre Haute. Interestingly we ordered the exact same meals as before. I'm adding updated pictures. I would definitely go with the bento box if you want something that is offered in a box. You get absolutely everything this way: your entree, rice, soup, salad, vegetables in tempura, green beans, and sushi. You can sub your sushi roll for whatever you pick and bust accept the up charge, which I did. The salmon is consistently good as is the soup, salad, and really tasty green beans. Service leaves something to be desired. Our server seemed to disappear for long periods, and didn't check on us after bringing the entrees. We didn't get our sides or rice or steak knives, so we had to stop other employees and ask them. Our server also did not ask if we'd like a second round of drinks. We may have, but by the time we saw him again, we didn't want to bother with ordering more drinks. Overall Umi is solid sushi, seafood, and steak. If you are looking for amazing service and to feel like a valued customer, don't expect too much. read more

I have been wanting to come here for awhile since my friend moved to town so I came to visit her so we could finally make it happen. Boy, it did not disappoint! We came on a Saturday evening and had made a reservation prior. They were booked up! We went a little overboard and ordered 2 appetizers and 3 rolls for 3 people and we surprisingly crushed it. The crab cakes and spicy gyoza were great starters. The crab cakes had some kind of fruit with it that really added nice flavor to each bite. The spicy gyoza was pretty spicy for my palette but you can't go wrong with gyoza. As far as rolls, we ordered a Philadelphia roll, spicy California, and then two other rolls I can't remember the names of. Both were very unique and nothing like I've had anywhere before. The one I can remember had filet mignon on top with a teriyaki sauce. Aside from their already extensive menu and sushi list, they have a "secret" menu that isn't laid out for the public. It's like 3 additional menu pages. The waiter actually brought this up to us so if you're every curious, ask! I would enjoy coming back here again! read more

Ordered the Sushi flight on the new app. It was confusing and what was on my receipt was not what I received. Please change your app so the receipt shows the rolls in the order. I would have caught my mistake if the user interface wasn't misleading. I'm more disappointed I was told they wouldn't help fix it but instead I could create a new order at full price. I went to college in terre haute and don't make it back here often but would go out of our way to come back to Umi. We will not be back. Was told by staff it's a new owner and they were shocked they wouldn't help fix it. read more

We had a weird experience... our server told us he was new and seemed a bit confused. He did take our order for drinks and an appetizer... 40 minutes later another server showed up at our table and proclaimed that our server had gone AWOL, and that he would be taking over. We did eventually get excellent sushi. I did expect a little discount for the long delay, but it wasn't offered and I didn't ask. read more

I am in town for work and wanted some good sushi for carry-out to take back to my hotel for dinner. Umi Grill DID NOT disappoint! First of all my food was done right on time, the employees were kind, well-mannered, and quick. Secondly, their Terre Haute Roll is one of THE BEST sushi rolls I've ever had up north! The flavors all went together perfectly with the eel sauce, a little bit spicy, a little sweet, and the shrimp tempura were large & phenomenal. The crab and cream cheese wontons were perfect as well, nice & crispy with the perfect ratio of filling. You can't really mess up miso soup so obviously that was killer too. Overall 10/10 experience, I was thoroughly impressed. When I'm in town next and have more time I would love to dine in as the ambiance inside also seemed pretty neat. read more

I still think for the prices they're charging your tables and chairs could be set up a little bit better - I don't know.. higher quality? More privacy? It's your typical Asian restaurant seating in my opinion. The servers always seem to know their sushi and do a great job. I've never had anything bad or a bad experience here. I just really wish they would include their most popular rolls with descriptions on their menu. For me, I am a visual learner. I can't pick what I want to eat with a server describing sushi rolls - this is my only negative. For that I've included pictures of rolls I'd typically order. The prices on these lists are from 2020 so add a dollar or two. read more

Overall It's not that good. I think there is lack of sushi restaurants in the area so this place is relevant. But it's not that good. Service - A Extremely friendly and nice service. The waiter was very nice and provided recommendations. Food came out fairly fast Quality - D It's just not good sushi. So got the Singh and Verbo (?) roll. Based on the waiters recommendation - not good. Mismatch of flavors. Didn't make sense and didn't taste good Value - C Nice size portions around $20 a roll. Was expecting a lot more in taste Had a long day and skipped lunch - was really looking forward to indulging in some sushi but was disappointed. If you have had any semblance of decent sushi - skip this place. I think it does well because there are no other options and individuals in the area have not or do not have the opportunity for better sushi. read more

This restaurant is an interesting place in Terra Haute, IN. The atmosphere makes room for couples and groups with neat lighting effects above the sushi prep bar. We placed our order, and then watched as big platters of fried rice were placed on tables around us. Apparently, this is a popular thing at Umi. People take home large amounts of leftovers of that dish to enjoy again and again. We ordered Shrimp Tempura and the Sashimi Bento Box. Both came with miso soup and salad. The soup had good flavor. The bits in the soup were chopped in sizes that made it easy to manage. Umi prepares a very nice salad with mixed greens, other veggies, and fresh ginger dressing. Many times a salad in a sushi restaurant falls short. This did not! The Tempura was really nice. The shrimp was tender, not overcooked. The tempura vegetables were made even tastier with the brothy dipping sauce. The Sashimi Bento Box is where I set the 4 stars. The fish was good but not melty good. I didn't ask about where they get their fish or how often. Indiana is very far from an ocean, after all. I was quite satisfied just the same. I should have asked to change the Cali Roll to something more interesting, but didn't think about it. It was fine, but I would have like to try a local favorite. I would go to Umi again. read more

So I generally take photos but I didn't because I was actually here with a client and well that doesn't seem very professional-LOL This was my fist time here and I will definitely be back. We didn't have reservations but was able to be seated right away at noon. Our server came right over as soon as she saw us settled. The menu isn't overly huge but it's just enough variety. The sushi menu is pretty standard, I didn't study it like I normally would (I was entertaining), but it seemed like a good selection. I ordered soup and Spicy California roll with soy paper. Now I get California rolls quite often and there was something about these that I am going to put here on record. They were the BEST California rolls I have had. I mean simply amazing. I always get soy paper (if you don't you need to) but yeh I'm not sure if it was the crab or what but amazing. The two people I was with also liked their order. Everyone was nice, I was seated quickly, service was great, and food amazing. Again, sorry no photos! read more

Nice food. More than I expect from a restaurant in Terre Haute. Service was great. A lovely sushi bar and lovely design.

I've been going to Sushi Umi (now Umi Grill) for over 10 years now and have always enjoyed it! Personally, I am not a sushi eater, but they have lots of options for people who don't want sushi! My partner loves sushi and we come here every year for their birthday. It's always such a treat! If you are able to call ahead for reservations of one of the small private booths, I highly recommend it. The main dining area can get a little loud and crowded on busy nights. Unfortunately I didn't get any pictures last night besides our Sake, which was amazing! We started with an appetizer of vegetable egg rolls. They came with a yummy sweet chili sauce. For the entree, my partner ordered the Dr. Singh and Red Dragon rolls, while I got the chicken bento box. I love the bento box because it comes with miso soup, a salad (with THE BEST peanut dressing), vegetable and shrimp tempura, garlic green beans, and a California roll, plus the protein of your choice. Finally, for dessert, I love their mochi, so I enjoyed some chocolate mochi, and my partner got a honey cake with black sesame ice cream, complete with a birthday candle. The service is always excellent. Our server last night was very kind and offered recommendations when asked. Umi is a staple in the Terre Haute community. We will continue to return to Umi Grill for many years to come! read more

This place has a really nice atmosphere. Staff is super friendly. I will admit that I wasn't brave enough to try raw fish so far away from an ocean so I can't review the sushi.

I know there are those of you who think Terre Haute isn't a culinary hotspot. Well, when it comes to Umi Grill and Sushi Bar, you're wrong. The staff here is amazing and knowledgeable, and the food is amazing, from the appetizers, to the drinks, to the entrees, to the desserts. All the sushi is super fresh. (I highly recommend the bento box--it's so much food for so little money, and SO GOOD!) The desserts are pretty stellar as well. I've never had to wait there, and they have these super cute little booth "rooms" where you can take a date or just somewhere to eat in private so Aunt Katie doesn't embarrass the heck out of you. (She's misunderstood.) They'll tailor anything to meet your palate. You can't go wrong. Sushi on, my friend. read more

I have come here multiple times over the last few years and each and every time I come here I am pleasantly surprised that Terre Haute has a fantastic sushi restaurant. I got the doctor sing roll as I do every time and it came out perfectly. I also ordered a bunch of other things to sample the menu.. like their ramen and dumplings. I cant say enough good things about the meal and how amazing everything tasted. I would highly recommend checking this place out if you are in the area and looking for fantastic food. To top it all off the server I had the last time was prompt, made amazing recommendations, very polite and refreshingly professional. Food - 5/5 Price - 4/5 Service - 6/5 Will I be back?!
