" If you're looking for authentic sushi in LA, stop scrolling! Umaya's freshness and quality are not to be missed. The dishes reminded me of my time in Japan. The service is exceptional, and the vibe is conducive to a lovely dining experience, whether casual or formal. Highly recommended! " (*Curated Review*)

" The dining experience at Umaya was unforgettable. My friends and I were celebrating a birthday and decided to go for the omakase option, which was very much worth it. Each dish was a work of art—flavors were bold yet complementary. The service was impeccable, with staff who passionately explained each course to us. The atmosphere struck a perfect balance between elegance and comfort. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a memorable night out! " (*Curated Review*)

" My partner and I chose Umaya LA for a special anniversary dinner, and it did not disappoint! We opted for the kaiseki course, and each dish was a delightful surprise. The grilled lobster was a highlight, bursting with umami. The matching wines made each course even more enjoyable. The chefs here really know their craft. The atmosphere felt very romantic and intimate, perfect for our celebration. Highly recommend! " (*Curated Review*)

" We had an incredible experience at Umaya LA! The sushi was mind-blowingly fresh, and we were lucky enough to try the omakase menu. Each piece was beautifully presented, and the flavors were exquisite. The waiter was extremely knowledgeable about the sake pairings, which enhanced our meal significantly. The ambiance is modern yet cozy, making it a great spot for a date night. Will definitely return! " (*Curated Review*)

" Umaya LA is a visually stunning restaurant, but I left feeling that the flavors didn't match the aesthetics. I ordered the seafood ramen, and while the broth was decent, it lacked the depth I was hoping for. I appreciate the creativity in the presentation, but when it comes to authentic flavors, I felt a bit let down. On the positive side, the service was friendly and responsive throughout our visit. " (*Curated Review*)

" Umaya LA appears to be aiming high, but for me, it fell flat. The sushi was good but not particularly memorable. I enjoyed the trendy interior, but the service was lackluster, and I felt that I was just another table in a busy restaurant. I expected a more immersive experience given its reputation. I might come back to give it another chance, but my first impression wasn’t stellar. " (*Curated Review*)

" Umaya LA might just be my new favorite sushi spot. The omakase was an experience on its own, with a fantastic variety of fish. I also enjoyed their cocktails that paired well with the meal. Definitely more upscale than regular sushi joints! Perfect for special occasions. " (*Curated Review*)
