    Ronin roll $18
    Rachel H.

    3.75 stars, rounded up to 4 bc of the quality and taste of the fish. When you walk in, it's self service. This place is pretty busy for take out. We ordered 2 rolls, nigiri and a kids chicken teriyaki. The service is very fast which I appreciate when eating out with a toddler. The fish is fresh however it is very pricey for the amount of sushi you get. The kids chicken teriyaki is worth it though, tasted great and was a pretty big portion. We ordered the OMG roll ($16) and the Ronin roll ($18). The Ronin roll was good and love the marbled seaweed but a very small portion and it did not justify the price. The Omg roll was also decent but once again a small portion. I wish the rolls were bigger. We also ordered the two nigiri salmon pieces for $6 which was okay. Overall, I probably wouldn't be back since it's too expensive for what you get.

    I've been here before. I am back again. This is one of my favorite sushi "fast food" place. They are reasonably priced and the best of all is that I like their quality. If I am craving for fast sushi and I dont want to sit doen to be wait on, I come here to this place! Its well hidden, but its actually in the same plaza as Super Target.

    Chicken Teriyaki, Volcano Roll, side of noodles, spring rolls in the bag

    It is definitely hard to find a good express hibachi and this place here, *chef kiss* Definitely recommend! I been here a few times already and it's been good every time! I got the chicken teriyaki (which is pretty much chicken hibachi) it comes with rice or noodles (I got fried rice), veggies (sweet carrots, cabbage, shredded carrots, broccoli), and shrimp sauce/yum yum sauce. The flavor of the chicken is delicious. I also got the volcano roll, pretty standard of what a volcano roll is but it is good as well! The spring rolls/eggrolls come two to an order and that was okay, nothing to spectacular. I also got a side of plain noodles. The place itself is easy to find, a nice small restaurant. Service was good! No complaints over here! Keep up the amazing work y'all!

    This is our 2nd time here and it's been delicious both times! Quick and friendly service. Food is tasty and boba is delicious as well! Even my picky 9 year old agrees!

    Delicious food. Nice atmosphere. Terrific service. Great staff. We've been enjoying this restaurant for four years and look forward to continuing with friends and family for years to come.

    Tofu teriyaki
    Tammi D.

    I'm perplexed by the reviews here. I was expecting more. I will say that service was excellent and they did not get annoyed when I asked for a side of Sriracha and then another side of spicy mayo which by the way was not spicy. This restaurant is good for people who are on the go. There's no sit down sushi bar. You go to the register and order what you want and then they bring it to your table. The sushi is very reasonable, but after tasting it I could see why. I decided to try the Umami roll which contained whitefish, cooked salmon avocado and spicy mayo. The avocado and scallions were completely lost in the roll. The rice was okay but didn't taste like sushi rice. It was unmemorable. I also decided to try their tofu teriyaki. I was not expecting the enormous portion that came out but it was served with a side of rice and a bunch of vegetables. The tofu was pretty good. I couldn't finish the teriyaki, but I got enough of it to say it was just also okay. Nothing to rave about. They do serve boba tea which I would have liked to have tried but I was really full. I'm bummed because this place is pretty close to home but I'm not sure I'd come back.

    A few of the sushi spots around my area happened to be closed on Sunday so my options were limited. Got on Yelp and this place popped up with some good reviews. So I had to check it out to see how good it really was. In terms of design Umami is very modern and elegant. It doesn't over do it too much though. The interior is bright and spacious. Lots of warm tones and hardwood as the choice for dining tables. In Umami, you walk up and order at the counter as if you were going to fast food restaurant. This is becoming a bit more common as I've seen lately. The menu is located on the TV screen that located above the menu. You have options for sushi rolls and nigiri. They offer entree dishes as well like teriyaki and hibachi style dishes too for those who don't want to eat strictly seafood. On top of all that they also offer some bubble tea options. The menu is a bit of hybrid to attract all sorts of crowds. Kind of felt a bit Americanized. The sushi itself isn't too bad actually quite flavorful. The portions are kind of small compared to the offerings other establishments. Depending how hungry you are this may or may not fill you up. Also aesthetically the rolls were not the best looking as well. In terms of the bubble tea, it was a bit too sweet. Average at best and you definitely tell it's not their specialty. Overall, it was a good experience. It's a great option for the area. Kind of out of the way for me though. The price is bit up there for the amount you get. The service is almost non existent after you get your food delivered to the table. The taste of the sushi itself was actually really good, still the look was not that impressive. In general it's good but not great. Compared to the competition it's about average. Still would recommend it though.

    For the area, this restaurant is a gem. I liked that they zoned into an area where bunch of us drive through everyday for work, with nothing else like it surrounding it. Lets face it, the Suwanee-Alpharetta area on 141 is very limited. Either way, like always, decided to check it out! You know, the adventurous side of me usually gets me in trouble, but not here! Glad i went. Usually I've zoned into the Hibachi part, which is what they seem to be most popular part (You know, quick lunch, get in - get out) I have ordered the Teriyaki Chicken numerous times, as well as Beef, and they have always been consistent. Great flavor. By the way, something they offer that brings me back every time.... the sweet carrots that come with the platter. Boy are they delicious, works well with the saltiness of the teriyaki chicken, well played Umami! Finally, only thing that I'm still not convinced on is the Thai Tea. Needed a tad more flavor, or maybe my palate is used to the Gwinnett Bubble tea shops. I will try it one more time and see. But overall, I recommend this for lunch if you are in the area. Reasonable prices.

If you are looking for a spot that combines a whimsical atmosphere with incredible flavors, this is it. The bright colors and the giant unicorn bursting from the wall were so amusing and made for the perfect backdrop. The store is fully decked out for the season with beautiful Christmas decor and an enchanting tree that feels so festive. Plus, they have the cutest claw machines I have ever seen--totally enchanting and a must-try for some quick fun! With the cold temperatures outside, I decided to go with a Hot Taro Milk Tea. It was sensational! It had just the right amount of sweetness without being sugary, which is exactly how I like it. For a snack, I tried their mozzarella sticks and curly fries. Those cheese sticks were thick, perfect, and definitely not your typical store-bought variety. While the curly fries were a bit underwhelming, you really can't win them all! What truly made the visit special was the staff. They were super sweet and brought such an enthusiastic energy to their service. It is rare to see that level of exemplary customer service these days! Next time you are on this side of town, do yourself a favor and stop in.

Parking is plenty, however it is shared with the neighboring businesses. The barista was extremely nice and was beyond willing to give her opinion on items.

They have cute themed seats outside as well as group couch areas. I also thought it was really cool that they had a craft center where you can make phone cases, keychains, picture frames, and basically whatever after you get your drink. The sea salt is a signature drink that they created, and this brand is a Chinese tea brand. I thought it was really cool that they brought this here to the US. The dessert for me was the mango, shaved, ice dessert, I felt like it could have used a little bit more condensed milk. There wasn't actually any most of the sweetness came from the mango and ice cream. This is honestly the reason for the four star because I felt like for $22 I expected more for this dessert. The picture I saw in the restaurant had a fish pancake with it, but we didn't get that. And we only got one pocky no Oreo. The staff in the front weren't the friendliest, but they weren't rude or anything. It was raining pretty hard and there was a lot of flood warning so I'm pretty sure they were just tired. I actually love the lady that brought us our skewers. She was so sweet. She said she gave me a bowl of the cucumbers for free, and it was so good. I kinda like the cucumbers more than the potato and the beef kebabs. I'd love to come back here again when it's not raining so I can sit outside they have a few tents where you can pretend that you're clamping.
