    We were starving and driving from St. Pete to Clearwater and ended up wandering into this joint. Parking was easy outside in the lot. It was lunch time and we were the only customers in the whole place, so we got very prompt service. It was very dark inside, but I don't mind that on a super hot day. They had a nice lunch special of 3 rolls for only $13 (from a limited selection of basic rolls) and I feel like that's a good deal. The rolls were nothing special, but good enough.

    The restaurant is clean. Upon entering it has an over powering smell of cleaning products. The walls have cute paintings matching the Asian theme. Our server was cordial and quickly took our drink and food orders. Didn't take long to get our food, even though we had a party of seven. I ordered the lunch special - hibachi steak and chicken. The plate is a nice portion. The fried rice was mildly flavored, the noodles were a bit greasy. The shrimp was delicious and the steak was small in portion and slightly overcooked. For the price, though, it was okay.

    Amazing sushi!! All the rolls were fire plum wine striking! And the tempura cheesecake oh wow one of a kind item. This cheesecake is the best dessert ever

    5 stars for Umai Sushi. If you're dining in, you have 2 choices - 1.) Do all you can eat sushi for a fixed price lunch or dinner (this includes appetizers like soup, salad etc) 2.) order a La carte - you can order sushi or the Japanese food they have I opted for the all you can eat lunch special sushi - it was delicious. All of the sushi was very fresh and perfect temperature and presentation wise. They have patio garden seating and plenty of indoor seating - there are also some cool lights and decor inside (even in the bathroom!). The server I had was also very friendly. I'd definitely recommend a visit if you're in the area and want some great sushi.

    great food! very flavorful and filling. the music was calm, and decorations were nice! however, it took a bot long for our food. overall great though!

    Stopped here with my mom and it was really great! They were definitely short staffed and I felt bad for the one server that was running around like crazy, but she did a great job! My mom and I split 3 rolls and all of them were great and you could taste that the ingredients were definitely fresh. While I enjoyed all the rolls, I wouldn't say there was anything exceptional about them. All pretty standard, but still tasty. The spicy miso soup was delicious! Honestly, it's one of the best, simple soups I've ever had at a restaurant! It was light, but flavorful with the perfect amount of spice. I would come back here for sure if I'm in town again. It's a cute, small place with fresh, flavorful foods.

    Chicken katsu dinner

    One of my favorites! The chicken with noodles. Add fresh mushrooms!! Crab Rangoon is delish! Chicken katsu is crispy & fresh. I'm not a fan of the beef since it's generally tough. Everything else is perfect. Yum!!

    I had been meaning to try this place out but never got around to it. Went today & I won't be going back! The service was nice but I saw one of the staff members touching the food without gloves. Everyone had on gloves but him. With so much going around that was all I needed to see. Luckily what he was touching was not not what I ordered or I would have gotten up and left! That's not acceptable! I had the spicy tuna roll which was deep fried and the tuna was very warm and fully cooked. I didn't eat all of it. I'm all for trying new places especially when it's close to home. But nope... never going back.

We just wanted to post this review so that people know before they drive across town to eat there. So here it is, the answer to you question "doesn't he know all restaurants do that?" No, they don't. There's an important distinction between "closing time" and "last seating," and yes, different restaurants do it differently. IMHO, there's a right way and a wrong way. If a restaurant publishes 3:00 PM as its closing time, the ordinary customer interpretation is that you can walk in at 2:48 and be served. For many, quality restaurants, who care about their hangry customers, what they do is seat people up until the posted closing time, and the doors stop admitting new customers. People already inside finish their meals. The staff then does closing work after the last customers leave. So if the restaurant wants the dining room empty and employees effectively finished by 3:00, it really ought to advertise an earlier closing time.

Then when it was finally delivered, they left out an item. Attempting to resolve it with the driver, the restaurant, or using Uber app got me no where. Restaurant acknowledged that driver left drink and did nothing to resolve it. How did ordering food go from being able to make a phone call to involving two separate phone apps, and two other parties where each can just point fingers at each other when a mistake is made? In the time it's taken me to trouble shoot this I could have driven to the restaurant and back twice, but it's not about that. When one pays for a simple service, they should expect to receive that simple service. Don't eat at this place, they don't care about the customer.
