    Chicken wings
    Vicky C.

    Tried a new ramen spot for lunch after a friend's glowing recommendation. He said it was amazing the last two times he went, and he wasn't wrong. I got the black garlic ramen, and it was so flavorful and comforting. I'd definitely get it again, especially in the winter. We also shared two appetizers: the pork gyoza and their chicken wings. The wings were a standout crispy, juicy, and full of flavor. I'd absolutely order them again. The dry ramen wasn't available today, but I'll be back to try it. The service was great, and the interior was really nice, clean, cozy, and thoughtfully designed. Definitely worth a visit if you're into ramen or just looking for a solid lunch spot.

    We all loved it & would definitely eat here again!! The food tastes great, our Boba tea was spot on, & our waitress was extremely polite & attentive!

    Great service and an excellent menu. Started off with the pork buns which had great flavor. The ramen was good but very little meat on the beef rib as it was mostly fat and membrane. I would get a different ramen option next time but otherwise think this is a good addition to the Lexington food scene

    Spicy Miso Ramen

    I used to love this place when it opened but over time they fell off. The eggs and meat were cold and overall broth was lukewarm. The service is also very pressuring since they hawk watch you to give a good tip. The restaurant is beautiful inside but the food not so much. If you want a really good ramen place I recommend Hokkaido at Georgetown, KY.

    Lexington's newest ramen spot! I was very pleased with the boba! Umami dream fruit tea was GREAT. I added lychee popping boba and it was so yummy. The taro milk tea was also very good. I went to their first day soft opening so there is a bit of a learning curve for things but the service was great! The crab rangoons didn't taste like they were made in house... more of a made from frozen bag taste. The edamame could've used more salt as well. But everything else was good. The gyoza was cooked perfectly and the spicy miso was very tasty. The restaurant is very cute I like how they renovated it from the previous tenants to make it unique to Umami.

    Ramen at Umami was delicious, and I would go back without question! Being a new restaurant, I was very pleased with the cleanliness of the facility. Our server was very kind and accommodating. She offered great advice, and ended up saving us money. The food was hot, the spicy miso was the right amount of spice, the chashu pork had a nice crisp to it, and I left feeling very full without breaking the bank. Planning our next trip already!

    I popped in to Umami recently and boy I'm glad I did. It's an open and inviting space with very polite employees. The lovely lady assisting me recommend several dishes. I ordered two of her suggestions (can always ask for a take out box). She was spot on. Very generous portions, with multiple layers of flavor. Additionally, the price is very appealing considering how much other restaurants have increased. I highly recommend giving it a shot. Cheers!

    Delicious ramen, boba teas, fried rice and plenty of appetizers to choose from. It's a very cozy atmosphere, and friendly service and they offer free parking!

    Chicken katsu
    Andy P.

    The ramen was very very good with a good price. However the refills was mixed up between our drinks. Overall though really good

    Tonkatsu ramen
    Arnold L.

    Tasty Tonkatsu and Black garlic ramen! Service is fast and friendly. Decor is nice and modern.

    Garlic ramen
    Madeline M.

    Service was fast and friendly. The rice was mushy and had an odd taste. The chicken was way too salty. The garlic ramen was pretty good.. felt like it was missing some flavor. The egg was also way too salty.

    Our waitress was super nice! I love the aesthetic of the place and it's very clean. Their boba and Gyoza is a must!

    Crisp, clean, open interior. Very welcoming and friendly service. Our food was delicious and we were very impressed by the flavors and quality. There are many Ramen places in Lexington and this our new favorite spot!! You can park in the garage at Chevy Chase and the restaurant offers validation.

    See all
