    Nothing beats a fresh and good sushi to eat! Been to other places but UMI sushi is the BEST in town- no doubt about it‼ Food Service Ambiance Giving a thumbs up to the ladies : Michelle& Karen- they're on top of it serving everyone at their best‼

    We had a forgettable experience at Sushi Umi. Service was bad during our night out. We have dined at Sushi Umi one other time prior. To note, the location is small and there's about 6 tables/booths total. We seated ourselves per the server. We ordered two items. One Shrimp Tempura Udon and my wife a Double Salmon Roll. I received my Udon order first. A decent time passed and had us wondering about the sushi roll. Server told us, sorry it's busy they are working on it. Then more time passed. Finally after 20+ minutes after the udon was served my wife's sushi came. Server said she'd give wasabi and ginger but it never came. The wait time between the two orders was pretty crazy. My wife said the roll was ok, but salty. The udon was good since I was craving soup. Didn't take a picture of the sushi roll because my wife was already hungry from all the waiting. The experience wasn't great for us, unfortunately. Seemed like other tables were waiting for all their food as the server was apologizing constantly to other customers. After today, it confirmed why we don't think to come here. There's other reliable sushi spots we usually frequent that serve similar menu items, but have better service.

    Tried a new hole in the wall and it did not disappoint. Sooo fresh, can't wait to go back. Miso was soothing. Green tea was delish. Chefs were so friendly. We sat at the counter and watched them go to work. The parking lot was a bit sketchy but plenty of lights to park under.

    I dined here earlier tonight with my husband and I'm sad to say this experience was not so great. We've been here once before, but it wasn't this bad. My husband ordered the Tempura Shrimp Udon Soup and I ordered the Double Salmon Roll. His soup was served within minutes, but mine took about 20+. The waitress apologized for the wait and said it was because they were busy. I overheard her apologizing to other tables for the same thing. When I finally got my order, she said she would get the ginger and wasabi, but that never came. The roll was good initially then it started to taste salty. When I looked closer, I could see so much of the salt sprinkled on top of the salmon and on the plate. When I had the last four pieces left to eat, I scraped some of it off the fish. There's room for improvement and I hope the other diners tonight didn't have a bad experience like I did. I think it would be best to serve all the dishes for the same table at once rather than have just one served while the other person waits, especially if it's busy. Maybe don't have tall tree dividers in between the seating because it felt like we were hidden. For now, I won't be returning here.

    I stopped here for a drink and snack before my nail appointment in the same shopping center and it was such a vibe! The menu is well priced and service was superb. Shout out to Jonah for taking care of me at the sushi bar. I didn't have any actual rolls but I will definitely be back next time I'm craving sushi. The restaurant is tucked deep into the CVS parking lot but such a hidden gem with a great menu. If you're near Glendora or Covina check this place out!

    Really happy to have found good quality sushi near us!! I've been to a few sushi restaurants around us but the quality of the fish has always been just acceptable. In the chirashi bowl that we ordered from sushi umi, all the fish were high quality and fresh! I couldn't decide which fish I liked the most, which is when you know it's all good! Tempura Philly roll- decent, nothing special and tastes like a normal fried Philadelphia roll which isn't a problem! Super dragon roll- also nothing special, just like other restaurants which isn't an issue at all I'll definitely be coming back here for the chirashi bowls and to try other rolls and sushi :)

    ~ Great Service ~ I had Michelle as my waitress, she's great! The inside is super cozy! I really love the Truffle Salmon Carpaccio!! I was dipping all my fish in that sauce...so yummy!!

    Deep fried California roll and spicy edamame! Sorry we ate most of it
    Yvonne P.

    So first time here and I ordered the special, which was Mr. mango and it was amazing! Highly recommend it and the deep fried California rolls, and the super spicy edamame and the baby beers lol Also had a salmon skin hand roll and green muscles. Recommend all of it. The green muscles were a little different than when I'm used to, but they were still very tasty and unique

    This is the best sushi restaurant in Glendora! The sushi is fresh. The udon is also very flavorful. The chef and staff are super friendly, too! The music they play here is very soothing and the decorations are very cute.

    Updated Reveiw: After many months of coming to Umi almost at least once a week, I'd like to say that they have just constantly improved themselves! The sushi is always so fresh and yummy and it's always such a pleasure to constantly come back :) Every single staff member is so kind to my family and I. It really is just nice to come here after a long day of work. It's awesome to see that they are picking up business too! I just know this restaurant is going to be a hot spot in no time.

    Thanks Randy Roll, very good!

    Great tasting Randy Roll special! Great recommendation and service was perfect! Will come back again and again

    Rainbow Roll.
    Anna B.

    Omgggg their salmon sushi pieces are huge and so fresh! Also got their Rainbow Roll, amazing and sizable rolls with good rice-to-fish ratio. Yummy and super fresh fish! And delicious miso soup, not that salty. I appreciate that they gave me a side of ginger in a to-go sauce cup instead of the packaged kind that doesn't taste as good nor fresh. Would definitely order thru Postmates again! And maybe dine in another time.

For being in a food hall in Glendora, this was a pretty good bowl of bbh. It has rich umami broth though it could have stood for more vermicelli noodles. I was most surprised by the amount of beef tendon. In fact, I asked for a side of fish sauce to dip the tendon lol. On my second visit, I built my own phở bowl ($17.48). You get a choice of 3 meats, so I chose wagyu steak, wagyu eye round, and brisket. I thought the meat quality was great. The broth, on the other hand, was having an off night I think. It had a very strong star anise flavor and the broth could have use a little skimming. And Broth offers a variety of interesting phở variations that I'd like to try. I like that there are so many different Vietnamese dishes umbrella-ed under one establishment. I'll definitely be back.
