    SALMON CROWN
    Melissa L.

    First time trying this place and could not be happier. If you love salmon try the Salmon Crown roll, the salmon is in place of where the rice would be. Super delicious! I also ordered the Tako sushi and the quality of octopus was very good. Great service as well as peaceful environment. Would absolutely come back.

    What a great surprise! Was intending on going to another place (won't mention) and someone recommended Umai. Had never heard of it, and always looking for good sushi so decided why not. Small little place, but the quality was great! Grabbed a sashimi bento dinner so I could try several items, and also grabbed some Sake and Maguro Nigiri because I wanted to try those separate and was told the Salmon was really good. I should say that the sashimi bento came with 8 pieces which included Sake, Maguro, Toro and Hamachi. Did not disappoint! Salmon was velvety smooth and creamy (so were the other cuts)!! not the biggest pieces, but sufficient. Miso was good, house salad dressing is sesame oil based, and tasty. Tempura batter was light and crunchy, and the california hand roll was packed! As with any good sushi, you should expect to pay a decent price, but it's very worth it.

    I took off one star because the rolls are so poorly and loosely wrapped that they fall apart and are difficult to eat. And they weren't cut right, so the seaweed wasn't cut through and two or three pieces would be attached. Difficult and messy to eat for both those reasons. But the service was great, sushi fresh, and delicious. I'll definitely go back but likely ask for a knife if the seaweed isn't cut right.

    This review is strictly for to-go orders. I haven't had a chance to dine in yet. My smallest dog is too clingy and since he can't sit in the dining room with us, who knows when I'll be able to eat there lol. Onto the food itself! My husband enjoyed the generous bento box with California roll. The specialty rolls have a bit more going on than I could enjoy. Rainbow roll: 4/5 stars because there's cooked shrimp on it Salmon roll: 5/5 stars because it's perfect the way it is and the flavor of the fish comes through Tuna roll: 5/5 stars, just as consistent as the salmon roll Sombrero roll: 4.25/5 because the sriracha is a bit overwhelming. If it were sriracha mayo to add a touch of butteriness that didn't compete with the fish, the fresh slices of deboned jalapeño slices on top could work well with the roll. Rocky Manhattan roll: 3.5/5 because many of these more specialty rolls have a little too much going on and the flavors get lost. It could do without the Cajun sauce IMO. Overall, solid!

    Tonight's to go order was sad. We usually go here to eat but we decided we wanted to just grab and go. I asked to skip the lettuce and sub for rice. Don't think the sub was given. It's the smallest saddest Poke bowl I've ever had. Order x3 and all were the same. At $14.50 each, won't be coming back for to go orders. I suppose tonight I was shrinkflated. Cali roll was packed with hot food we ordered too.

    New to TX but this is probably our favorite sushi spot that we have tried. Wish the lights were not so bright, but I won't take a star off for that. Love the riceless rolls, fish tastes fresh and friendly service. Cute little area it is located in too.

    Sooo good! Small. Quaint. Out of the way. Wonderful customer service. FRESH fish! (Most important!) Very clean, they even clean the seats between customers. I didn't get a bowl, but we saw one and I was like Errmygoodness... I'm gonna get one if those next time!

    My second time here and definitely enjoyed the sushi yet again. My friend and I came in for lunch. The sushi is super fresh and very tasty. The service was good for only one waitress being there. She was so sweet but so busy. So if you're on a time schedule don't come for lunch. It's very cozy and offers a great selection of rolls and fish. We ordered two rolls, two appetizers and a ton of nigiri! The spicy edamame was a fan favorite as well as the spicy scallop nigiri. Nothing we had was anything but delicious. Parking though is a pain.

    OK, this was such a random stop but when I tell you, it will not be one of my favorite spots I mean…read moreit.... I picked the booth in the back. It was perfect for me. Five people could've easily sent here, but I want the hopeful to myself. I could see the whole restaurant from sitting right where I am and it feels perfect. I just stopped in for a quick bite to eat, hoping to get some fried rice and I came in and found my favorite thing on the menu... bang bang shrimp... and there is such a backstory for me and bang bang shrimp but just numb last night my family chose to go to Olive Garden instead of going to bonefish Grill. I really want a bang bang shrimp and today guess what I ordered??? you got it bang bang shrimp!!! and it came out first before the other entrée which was veggie fried rice. My bill is about $27 and that's fine because I'm the main character of the story and every grain of rice was worth it. Perfect place for a self-care day that I stumbled across. Oh and let me not forget my server, Ajah. She was so adorable and so kind. I just wanted to take her home and put her in my pocket and pull her out anytime I need to pick me up or Bestie to talk to. The food was beyond delicious and the service was beyond great 10 out of 10, but definitely come back again!!!

    3.5 The food wasn't bad but I've just been to other places…read morein McKinney that had better selections for sushi. TLDR: Their menu was massive with so many different options which I think is good for people who want to try different things but it may be a little too big of a menu. Food was just ok. It may be beneficial to lessen items on menu and really focus on some key dishes they want to highlight. Everything imo was priced a little on the high side, at least $1-2 more than I would pay for the quality of the dish. They do pack their specialty rolls with a lot of ingredients and with inflation I'm sure they priced it accordingly to keep their business running, so I'm not docking off too much points for that. Review: They offered regular sushi rolls but disappointing to see that yellowtail was not on their menu for rolls (they did have it as an option for 2pc sushi/sashimi). I ordered a smoked salmon 2pc sushi which was pretty good and decently sized so probably worth the ~$5 price point for 2pc. I did not order any other ones from the 2pc menu so not sure if all the fish are portioned that way. Regarding their regular rolls, my husband enjoyed the Philadelphia rolls and said he could taste the smoked salmon, so for both of us a win on the smoked salmon. My other order was part of their specialty rolls...Salmon Lover priced at ~$13 with 8pc. Imo the pieces were quite small for a specialty roll and it tasted ok. There was supposed to be a honey wasabi sauce on there which I felt like was overpowered by the amount of spicy mayo on the dish. I wanted to like it so badly but I figured reading off of the ingredients list that it would have a kick to it, and it did not. It's not marked as a spicy roll, so probably not intended to be spicy? But with spicy mayo and jalapeño surely there would be some mild kick to it, and the flavor just kinda fell flat and tasted like...too much mayo. The highlight of this experience was the service. The young lady who took our order was super nice and cheery. Checked up on us at appropriate times and I saw she was also working on other tasks around the restaurant. I am willing to try this place again in the future as the vibes were nice, it def gives Japanese izakaya and looks like a good place to have dinner with some friends. Maybe I'll try their ramen instead next time!

    We came here with high expectations after reading the reviews. One person even compared this place…read moreto Ichiran in Japan which was definitely a stretch. I've had the pleasure of eating ramen in Japan and yeah, NO. The reason for the 1 star is because we were the first ones in at 11 and the waitress came in sneezing and wiping her nose with her hand, with her child in tow who by the way was all over the place and many times just standing at our table staring at us eat. I kept watching her to see if she would wash her hands or at least use hand sanitizer but she neglected to do either. The ramen: We ordered the spicy garlic pork shoyu and the spicy chicken broth ramen. The garlic pork ramen had 1 small piece of pork belly and the noodles while a great consistency, tasted like cardboard. The broth suffered from the lack of flavor. The chicken ramen was also pretty flavorless. The nerve of someone to compare this place to Ichiran lol. I will say, the service from the chef and the nose wiping waitress was pleasant but the grossness of her wiping her nose and touching every chair, bowl, utensils and eating her chips at the table across from us with her toddler is enough for us to never go back to this place even if it was the last ramen spot on the planet.

    We have ordered to-go from here but recently, in an impromptu decision we dined in. The food is…read morefresh and delicious. The ambiance is very calm and beautiful. Our server was very helpful and kind. We ordered chicken karaage for starters and garlic chicken broth ramen as the main course. The serving size is quite big. I saw a vegetarian dish on the menu but I'm not sure if the broth is vegetarian as well. There is lots of parking on site. We hope to return soon.
