Umai Japanese Cuisine

We have been several times to this restaurant and have enjoyed it in the past. The other day we went and had the sushi sashimi platter and mixed tempura and they were fine. But we ordered green tea and were served Jasmine tea. When I queried this with the server (not Japanese no one who works there is Japanese) she said that that was all they had. I can assure you that Jasmine tea is not green tea and it is not good enough to put green tea on the menu and serve jasmine instead. The worst part of the meal was the beef ramen. Absolutely Horrible. In a creamy white soup with no flavour apart from cream milk? Something insipid and white in any case. I think the server said that it had blended to...

The food was great, we ordered katsu curry and a variety of sushi dishes which were really good quality. Having said this, the service was unfortunately subpar when we visited. We made a booking for around 7:30pm and I am aware that for a couple the normal time would be a maximum of one hour and a half to eat. We had finished our main within the first hour and were still eating our dessert when the waitress asked if we had done. We said that we hadn’t and she came back less than 5 minutes later saying that we needed to leave soon because they had other bookings. I double checked the time on my phone just in case we had over stayed by accident and it had been exactly one hour since our reserv...

I have been an avid lover of Umai for years now, and have spent birthdays, special occasions and a lot of money and time here. Food is always great however me and my partner came in tonight for a quick bite, one main dish, a side, and a drink between us. We tried to order straight away and the lady told us it is a minimum spend of £18 per person? So for example if i came in to get a ramen bowl alone £13.50) i would have to spend more money to dine there. If i had an eating disorder, or a medical condition where I could not eat full meals , they would deny service? Completely unacceptable and such a shame considering how much i usually love it here.

the waitress did not seem to know what was vegan and asked me to order something else. then brought me fish instead of herbal tempura. I'm sure they have vegan options, it just needs a little forward planning if I told them I could probably have made clear what I could eat. I wasn't too sure after the table staff didn't know that prawns were on the non-Veg list, so they didn't eat anything, but fortunately a burrito of okra in the evening, so I survived.
