This is our second time ordering from this place and we have not been disappointed. Their sushi rolls are always fresh and enticing. They have a variety of unique special rolls that are tantalizing. Had their Panther rolls and they come in 8 pieces and reasonably priced. Yes in general sushi are not inexpensive but if the product is good and yummy I'm all for that. I love sushi!Their delivery guy is friendly and prompt. Will definitely order here a 3rd time and more! read more

I loooooove this place. They don't deserve such low rating because of some c*ap 10 years ago. I trust this place 100%! Best food! Really fresh good sushi. Service is amazing. You don't wait forever for your sushi or rolls like past reviews indicated. The atmosphere is very nice. It's a quiet local sushi place that always, always serves fresh sushi ! I so appreciate them. I never had food poisoning, never got sick after. Just amazing. They also have THE BEST Uni!!! read more

I love their food! I am home bound and order delivery from many restaurants for my meals mostly. I love sushi theirs is on the spot tasty. I recommend their eggplant dishes. They are sweet and spicy. Their chicken NegiMaki is so good. Lots of sauce you can put on some rice or whatever you like. Their tempura items are of top quality. In conclusion, this one is a winner. read more

The food was even better than last time! The food was ready quickly and whenever I had a request they answered quickly. It was very fancy and clean. A little suggestion: get the AK 47 and Avocado eel roll. read more

I've had nothing but good experiences here, whether I was dining in, ordering delivery, or getting takeout. Umi's sushi is affordable and pretty good quality. I always capitalize on their deal where you can buy two special rolls and get one free. I'm particularly obsessed with the Devil Roll, which features pepper tuna and black tobiko on top with kani salad and avocado inside. It's all topped with a slightly sweet sauce that is listed as jalapeño sauce but doesn't taste like that at all. The pepper tuna and kani salad make for a delicious combo. Some of the special rolls are hit or miss, but the Devil Roll never disappoints. The BBQ ika appetizer is also pretty good, as are the sashimi pizzas (adding a few other ingredients to these would make them even better though) and the service is fine. No hovering and constantly asking if everything is okay, which I love, but they constantly refill my tea or water, which I also love. read more

Always fresh and tasty customer service always friendly and helpful. I'll recommend you.

Ordered thru grubhub. Estimated arrival time 210pm. I called the restaurant at 215pm. "The driver is coming", said the lady on the phone. I called the second time at 246pm. "The driver left long time ago. Let me see what happen. I'm sorry, thank you for waiting", said the same lady on the phone. Driver called at 250pm to say he was arriving. I didn't get my order until 252pm. You know how when you pick up a piece of sushi roll it keeps it's round shape. Well, as I picked up a piece it fell apart immediately. The seaweed was soggy, no longer keeping the sushi rolls round shape. My order was obviously left somewhere, either indoors or outdoors, neglected by this evidence. Like a hungry fool I am, I ate it. I just hope I don't get sick later... Also, I just glimpsed at the health violations listed here. Is that legit?? Wished I'd seen it before I ordered. read more

I like this place and im disapointed at their conduct and customer sercive.I placed an order at 2.16pm. I had the lunch special 3 rolls for 9.95 and a chicken teriaky. When i got my order i checked the price of chicken teriaky and it was 14.95. None of the prices listed for the lunch special. I called to ask why was i charged the price and the reception told me i was given dinner plate. I asked why, when it is lunch time. He said unless i request they give you the higher price. They do not give lunch special after 4, why do they think they have a right to charge dinner prices during lunch?! They also did not give the soup that came with the rolls. I had to call to get it. I was their customer for over 10 years, wont be returning back. So long Umi! read more

Umi Japanese Cuisine - Check what they charge you! - Sushi Bars Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

The one star review is for one reason and one reason only. I ordered online. The lady calls me and says hey I see you put in your notes that you want spicy Mayo and eel sauce, that's going to cost extra, also changing the salmon in the Philly roll from smoked to fresh will cost extra too. What? I'm giving you $85 and you can't give me a spicy Mayo and an eel sauce? Ok sure. She said we can do this for you but you will need to hand the driver $3 cash. Ok fine, whatever. So the food comes and I give him $3. I start unpacking and eating because I was starving. Look around, No sauces were included with my food. A very big f u to me. This place just lost my business indefinitely. Also, Food was meh. There are better places in the area. read more

I ordered food and they did not ask for my phone number. I waited for over an hour for my food. Then I called the restaurant and they told me that they have been calling me. I realized that they did not take my number. I gave her my number. The lady said that she was going to make my food. The phone was busy. I tried to call five times and the phone was busy. Finally, I received a call from the driver and he said that he is downstairs. I tried to explain to him what happened and he wanted me to come downstairs to get the food. I insisted that he can come upstairs, it was the least he can do. He refused to come upstairs so I went downstairs. I was on the phone with restaurant as I was going downstairs. She said that she was going to speak to the manager. I got disconnected for a minute. I called back and a gentleman picked up the phone. He said that the only way I can get my money back is if I return the Sushi. I already ate it. I said that this is the last time you get my money. Mindy from the restaurant said that I would get free credits for three rolls. I have been ordering from them for six months and this is the first time that I have received poor customer service. I really wanted to gave zero stars. read more

Amazing quality sushi for excellent prices. I usually get takeout because I live so close, but the atmosphere of the restaurant is also pretty relaxing and aesthetically pleasing. It is small and simple, but clean and homey. I prefer it to Sachiko across the street by a landslide. Highly recommend the spicy yellowtail roll and any of the hibachi fried rices. read more

Went back recently to give it another chance and I've got to say, they've improved over the years. Maybe they got a new chef, the sushi I ordered turned out descent amount of fish inside the rolls and less crunch. read more

I was so looking forward to try food from this place, but what a disappointment.... First of all they didn't offer any tea or water( not a good sign at the beginning already!!!) we've ordered teriyaki. I had vegetable teriyaki ($8.95). There was not enough sauce and veggi were not fully cooked( zucchini was simply raw!!!:(((( . My sister had asparagus tofu teriyaki ,that had more raw( yes RAW onions) then asparagus... but luckily tofu was delicious ( 1 star for that) But again the teriyaki supposed to have more sauce . But the waitress was terrible!!!!! She seemed so mad and irritated. I've never felt so unwelcomed ....we decided not to leave her any tips( because of her attitude) . Tips are not mandatory, but when we got our check, guess what? Tips were included (20%!!!! For that face and rudeness ?)wow... I wouldn't recommend this sushi to any one !!! And I will never come back read more

Food is good, but is the attitude that comes with it worth spending your money here? NO. I called for the lunch special for Teriyaki chicken, however, I forgot that I wanted the extra sauce on the side as well. I called back and mentioned to the lady who I was recently just talking to that I wanted to add extra sauce on the side as well. The hosts said okay "Mhmm hmmm no problem. " Once I get there she repeats the order and mentioned that I asked for no sauce on the teriyaki chicken and that I just wanted it on the side completely. I told the hosts that was not what I said. Instead of just saying okay she proceeds to go back and forth. Once I told her for the third time that's not what I wanted. She now then has an attitude because she has to re-open the back and add it. While opening the bag very aggressively she then hands me my card and receipt to sign with attitude. I should have just left food there and walked out but this would be my last time because the attitude was uncalled for. I order from there all the time and they will see that on their register when you call. However, this is not the first time I encountered a attitude with hosts either. My fiancè has been going there for a long time and I told him after today I would no longer be spending my money there. This restaurant needs to work on its clientele and how they talk to people. It's not a good feeling when a consumer can feel negative energy. read more

Came here to eat and the lady who is working the front is the owner of the restaurant and let me say SHE HAD THE WORST ATTITUDE EVER never will I come back to eat here again. Avoid this place there are better quality sushi elsewhere read more

I'm a person of habit and usually order the same thing from restaurants. If it's good, why change it? This place is consistently fresh and has always provided good quality sushi. We order very simple rolls so I can't speak for their tempura or hand rolls, or teriyaki, but as for the California, sweet potato and futomaki rolls, they always come out fresh and perfect temperature. The only thing I don't like is that they charge you for extra ginger and their prices have become a little outrageous. We asked for tobiko (fish eggs) on our rolls as an add on. It used to be 50¢ a roll. Then they went up to $1 per roll and now even up to $2 PER ROLL!! A little outrageous so we just stopped adding it on as it would bump the price of our order up by almost $10 on a $27-$30 order. We've learned our lesson in this case but continue to enjoy to-go orders once in a while. read more

i like the food here, but I had negative experience today - when i called and said i want to order lunch, lady on the phone told me to wait, started to shout something in Chinese(or other language I don't know) and then when i made a selection she said next time when you want to order lunch tell me that ahead. First of all i said that in the beginning, second if you even didn't hear what i said change your attitude and don't tell your customer (who is always) right what to do, I'm paying money and you are servicing me, think twice before saying something there is bunch of other places here on Brighton, so with just few words you can lose your loyal customers.. i think the phone picked up either owner or the manager, general feedback - let your workers do the customer service because you don't know how to talk to people. read more

Local Asian fusion Japanese restaurant. Fresh fish and decent prices. Service is always good. We order online from this place a lot too.

The food and service, is not bad for this kind of restaurant.My wife and I had a lunch special, my wife had the Shrimp Teriyaki meal, I had the sushi/ California roll meal. My wife got her order very fast, but the waitress forgot about my order and left it on the counter for about 20 minutes until I asked her about it. My food order was very small,and not very satisfying. read more

autumn small sushi !! noodles and meat are great. And the sushi is very small. what is there to save on? rice and some fish. despite the fact that any sushi is relatively cheap. read more

I don't want to say that this sushi place is the best, but due to the lack of Japanese restaurants in the Brighton Beach area I consider this one to be pretty decent. Delivery is on time. Food is fresh. Prices and Portions are adequate. Before leaving the restaurant I advise you not to be lazy, walk a few steps and leave a tip in the tip jar for the sushi masters. Expressing the slightest sign of appreciation with a few dollar bills puts a smile on their face And you walk away with a feeling of some sort of accomplishment. read more

Rude waitress and below acceptable food. Generally an easy-going customer, I chose not to complain about the tiny portions of stinky miso, not-so-fresh fish, and brown-spotted avocado with dry edges in my handroll. I was done in 15 min and requested the check. The waitress threw a tantrum when she saw the minimal tip - she came back sticking her finger into the receipt, demanding that I pay her more and attempting to humiliate me when I politely refused, explaining how I was unimpressed with the quality of food and service. No wonder this place never has a line of customers read more

The sushi here is pretty good Fresh and not too much rice They also have a good variety of sushi It's by no means fancy, just a regular sushi joint type. Great prices relative to other places that serve fresh fish. The main reason I'm giving it 3 stars is the unfriendly wait staff. I normally would reserve this comment for some really, seriously crappy service... But the bitch faces you get and the rude, impatient tone is really unacceptable - not to mention glares of disgust. I would definitely come back again Just keep in mind that you'll be barked at Consider coming here with someone who would deal with the waitstaff for you Or ordering out read more

This was my go to sushi spot when ordering lunch at work for the last 2+ years, but the last month or so it seems to have gone down hill. I rotate between the same sushi rolls, and today I was really craving the volcano roll, which I got along with a spicy tuna hand roll and a Boston roll, and a sunomono app. The sunomono used to have octopus and other fish in it, but the last few weeks they just fill it with tuna, white tuna, some salmon, and some yellowtail. The volcano roll tasted nothing like it was supposed to, and the spicy tuna hand roll tasted weird too. Boston roll was good but I guess it's hard to fuck that up. Even the spicy Mayo was a weird color today and very liquid. I guess I'll have to find a new sushi place to order from now, which sucks cause most of the ones that deliver to my job are shit. read more

Fish was rarely fresh, restaurant cancels orders after hours wait, restaurants like this should not be allowed to function. Disgusting management, so many better options. They should've stayed closed. Wanted to give them another shot but they canceled my order after an hour and telling me the driver was on the way. read more

Smaller portions. They split one piece of sashimi to make it look like two pieces. Also the quality isn't too good either. There are better sushi places in the area. Some of the staff is alittle rude too. Wouldn't recommend read more
