Community Rating
Reviews via GoogleWhat diners say — our read
Diners writing about this place keep returning to how guests are treated. Reviewers who mention how guests are treated rate this place 4.6 on average — it is working in the restaurant’s favour. How food arrives follows at 21% of reviews, where ratings average 4.7.
The split is 27 positive to 1 negative across 28 rated reviews. 5 stars is the modal score, given by 23 of the 28 reviewers who rated.
Against that, the kitchen inspects well — an A (100/100), nothing cited at the most recent DBPR visit. That inspection was on March 10, 2026. Across its inspection history the kitchen is declining, which argues for reading the older reviews with caution. Ranked against Orange County, it is safer than 100% of the restaurants we score. Nothing was written up at that inspection at all.
Both measures agree, which is the least complicated version of this page. Everything above is computed from the 28 reviews reproduced below.

After finishing our trip, we stopped by Umi for dinner before heading home. We weren't sure what to order, but our server, Michelle, recommended a ramen combination and a sushi roll based on our preferences. Trusting her recommendation turned out to be the best decision. The ramen had a rich, flavorful broth that was absolutely delicious, and the sushi roll was easily the best I've had in the U.S. It was the perfect meal to end our trip. Michelle's thoughtful recommendations and warm hospitality made the experience even more memorable. Thank you for such a wonderful dining experience—we'll definitely be back!

Came out to lunch here for the first time with my girls and oh my gosh, the aesthetics are so skibidi. I was actually planning to come here next time to break up with my boyfriend since I’m actually inlove with his girl best friend so will definitely be back. We ordered the chicken ramen and it was very flavorful the broth was so good my eyes rolled. We shared a bowl and was very satisfied we even shared a small kiss out of pure excitement. The waiter was W he’s a weezer fan so you know he knows ball despite his age and that’s just so amazing. Definitely recommend coming here. If you’re lowkey a chud scared of people come here since it’s not crowded. Anyways Thank you Andrew you da real food !

Last night my wife and i got a table for 2 at umi. We were immediately seated and within a few minutes our waitress greeted us. We ordered the calamari for an appetizer as we always do. After our waitress gave us our drinks, dropped off our appetizer, and took our sushi order, she didn't come back to our table not even once to check on us. She didn't clock out of work, there wasn't a shift change, as a matter of fact there was a young couple seated a table away from us, that came in about 10 minutes after us that she started serving. She frequented this couples table giving refills and brought their food out promptly. We actually ordered before the young couple, but their food was out on their table, meanwhile the same waitress didn't even come to check on us or give us an update. Another lady was seated at the table next to us, she had a different server. This server had her tea out immediately, and her appetizer was on her table within 5 minutes of her tea being served. At this point i was extremely disappointed. I forgot to mention, when we noticed our wait was abnormally long, i tried to flag down the waitress as she was serving everyone else, and that didn't work. Now mind you, we have been waiting 45 min - 1hour, and everyone else around us is being served. So I went to the bar and spoke to someone there to cancel my order. The waitress then tried to speedily bring out our sushi, at this point i was disgusted at the service and couldn't bring myself to eat the food. So…

WOW!! We went for Father’s Day and it was amazing! So delicious and fresh. We can’t wait to go back and try more of the menu. We had the sashimi lunch and 2 rolls. Everything was 5 stars. If you havnt tried them, you should and you might just find your new favorite restaurant.

Everything was perfect, food, service and atmosphere

Happy hour is priced great and food is so tasty.
-
Service was fantastic. Cute little spot. The sushi was fantastic, the hamachi kama was pretty decent, but the wagyu nagiri was trash, waste of 22 bucks.
