    I made a reservation here and when I got to the restaurant, it was closed with no explanation why it was closed and no effort was made to let me know that my reservation had been cancelled. I called their sister restaurant and they said it should be open and had no idea why it was closed. I gave my number to the manager of the restaurant and have still not heard anything back from them. This is not the first time I have had an issue with this location.

    We made a reservation with the opentable app for Saturday night 7 pm and received the confirmation mail. The Uber transfer charge was >13$ to get there and then we found out that the restaurant was closed. There was a sign on the door that the restaurant was temporarily closed until April 17th - which was three weeks ago! How come that opentable still confirmed a reservation??

    They stopped doing the cool hand roll tacos they were known for, and now they are just a sushi restaurant that I couldn't distinguish from most others. Nothing was bad about my experience, to be clear, but they no longer offer anything unique enough to justify my driving to have a meal there and forgoing the options nearer to my place.

    The rice was overcooked so that what was supposed to be a golden brown crisp, was a break your tooth crunch. The fish was not high quality. The service was inattentive and distracted. The plated images online represented a very different aesthetic quality and experience than we were offered. This experience was mediocre at best, not at all what was described on Seattle Met.

    Top quality fish and great skill creating rolls. A very good value as well. Miss the ease of ordering hand rolls set menu but sushi more than makes up for it
    Umi NoriResponded on January 6, 2024
    Thank you for the glowing review, Ian! We're happy to have delivered quality sushi to you during your visit. Looking forward to having you in again!

    They used to do special hand rolls which are amazing but not anymore.
    Umi NoriResponded on December 8, 2023

    Sunday night visit was uneventful. I was a bit underwhelmed with the sushi this time around. They do not make hand roll versions of the full rolls anymore; only the individual pieces of fish can be ordered in hand roll format along with nigiri or sashimi variations. The vibe here is fairly quiet and conducive for conversation, and the lighting was reasonably dim to match the auditory vibe.
    Umi NoriResponded on December 8, 2023
    Thanks for sharing your experience with us on your Sunday night visit! We're glad to hear that you enjoyed our space and the overall vibe too. We regret, however, that the sushi didn't quite meet your expectations this time around. We're constantly striving to balance our menu offerings and have recently adjusted our hand roll options. We understand that these changes may not align with everyone's preferences, and we truly value your feedback on this. We aim to offer a diverse range of sushi and other foods to cater to various tastes, and we'll certainly take your input into account. Thank you again for your patronage, and we hope that your next visit will be more in line with the high standards you've come to expect from us. We look forward to welcoming you back soon!

    Handroll experience did not meet expectations. Menu does not clearly provide pricing for different hand rolls leading to numerous questions back and forth between customer (my group) to server to chef for clarification. Handroll taste quality does not meet expectations for the price charged.
