We usually sit at the sushi bar, and the sushi chef often recommends a few pieces based on the fresh fish they have that day. Everything is consistently fresh and delicious.

They told us of short staff, I get it but there were only 3 tables. We was the only one in there first, then it got more people coming.

A unique item here are the noodles. Wow they were great. There were some crispy pieces from the grill top and that made it so delish! The veggies were fresh and well prepared. The fried rice was tasty. Had the chicken and steak. Both were good. The teriyaki sauce was good and the condiments were refilled. Great dinner. This location can accommodate large parties. We had over 20 at our table! It can be a bit loud with the cooking and fans. Note like any other similar facility, your clothes will smell like food from the cooking and smoke.

I always love the rolls we order and a couple of favorites are the kissy kissy and geisha. Love how you get salad and soup with a sushi roll order, not just hibachi or any other main course dish. Everything is super fresh, you can watch them prepare your rolls at the counter and then they are brought straight to your table. We have ordered hibachi chicken here. It's good but we prefer the rolls . With the other Japanese places in town I feel this one gets overlooked. I've always been able to walk right in! So if you want delicious sushi and don't want to have to wait forever or make a reservation, Umi is the place for you!

This was my first time visiting Springfield, and I didn't expect to find a place like this…read more The restaurant has a really fun Japanese anime vibe, with Totoro decor and even lucky cat (maneki-neko) touches throughout, which I absolutely loved. It honestly felt like the owner might be Japanese or Chinese, because the whole atmosphere was thoughtfully done and very authentic. The service staff were all friendly and welcoming, and overall the dining experience was great. We did have a delay with one of our dishes (waited over 30 minutes), but the manager noticed the issue right away, took responsibility, and handled it really well. They even offered us complimentary spring rolls, which I really appreciated. That kind of attentiveness and care makes a big difference. The food was solid and enjoyable--of course, you can't compare it to bigger cities, but for Springfield, this is definitely a great find. They also have a robot that helps deliver food, which was such a fun and unique touch. I'm here for work, traveling from out of state, and we actually ended up coming back four days in a row--which probably says everything. You can really tell the owner put a lot of heart into this place--from the decor to the overall experience. I appreciate being able to enjoy a different culture like this, especially in a smaller city. Springfield has given me a really great impression and some wonderful memories. Would definitely recommend

My favorite thing to get is their omo box, it is such a great deal with a little bit of everything. If you've never had sake, I recommend their sake flight. After trying their flight, I am now a fan of sake. The only downside, is it gets really busy on the weekends and the wait can get pretty long. However, if you prepare for a wait when you go or go during a slower time, it's a great place!
