" I had high expectations from UMI and they did not disappoint! The sushi was incredibly fresh, and the rolls were huge! It was a bit noisy during our visit, which made it hard to have a conversation, but the food was delightful. I'll definitely be coming back for their chirashi bowl and delicious rolls. " (*Curated Review*)

" UMI Sushi is a delightful place to indulge in authentic Japanese cuisine. Each dish was made with great care, and the freshness of the fish truly stood out. While our server was efficient, I wished for a little more interaction and recommendation guidance. Regardless, the food made it a memorable dining experience. Definitely coming back for more! " (*Curated Review*)

" Honestly, I was a bit skeptical reading all the glowing reviews. However, UMI Sushi truly lived up to the hype. The sushi was incredibly fresh and well-prepared. The chefs seem to have a passion for their craft, which shows in the final product. I enjoyed their calamari as an appetizer, it was perfectly seasoned. The only downside was that we had to wait a bit for our tables, but the food made it worth the wait. " (*Curated Review*)

" This is hands down one of the best sushi spots I’ve ever visited! We went during happy hour and the deals were fantastic. The rolls are massive, with real crab that you can actually taste, unlike some other places where they use imitation crab. I tried the YOLO Special Roll, and it was heavenly. The ambiance was cozy, perfect for a date or a casual outing with friends. I can’t wait to return! " (*Curated Review*)

" I can't give this place enough praise! The sushi was divine, and the selection was very impressive. The lunch specials provide great value without compromising quality. Having freshly made sushi is a treat. Plus, the service was so friendly that it made the meal even better. Do yourself a favor and visit UMI Sushi! " (*Curated Review*)

" Sushi lovers, rejoice! UMI Sushi has quickly become my favorite spot in town. They have an impressive menu and the prices are reasonable. I tried the rainbow roll, and it was visually stunning and delicious. The only drawback was the limited parking, which can be challenging during busy hours. Overall, I highly recommend a visit. " (*Curated Review*)

" UMI Sushi is a must-visit if you're a fan of sushi. The ambiance sets the stage for a fantastic meal, and the sushi creations are works of art. I particularly enjoyed the chirashi bowl, filled with a variety of delicious fish. My only critique would be the slight wait for our order, but the end result was well worth it. Can’t wait to return!
