I Stop here often for Lunch. Always great service with a smile and the sushi is delicious!!

Came for lunch on a Wednesday and it was excellent. They have lunch specials so I ordered the 3 roll special (eel avocado, Boston and the shrimp tempura roll). Started with a seaweed salad. Hubs ordered the sushi platter with 4 different nigiri and a tuna roll. His came with miso soup and a green salad. Ice cold with a miso peanut dressing. We'll definitely be back when we're in Middleburg heights. read more

Food was delicious. The spicy Kani salad wowed me!! We tried 6 different rolls and all were great! The service was very slow, there was only one server and she was working in the kitchen too - but she told us they when she seated us and she was very very nice The ambiance is great too. It's a cute little place. It's in a strip of stores - not much from the front but food and service are excellent read more

This place is amazing! Fresh food! The spicy Kani salad to start is a must. Or without the spice either way. I got the miso soup which tasted great. The broth was very good. Sushi app came with 6 pieces and they let me choose which fish I wanted. I went with the escolar (white tuna) salmon and tuna. All tasted so fresh and chill to the perfect temperature. Then finally the spider roll. The soft shell crab was cooed to the perfect consistency. read more

This was good sushi at a very reasonable price. The shop was slammed with to go orders, but the waitress was still serving tables too. By herself. The sushi was fresh, tasty, and the menu was ample. Great little place with a cute vibe. Clean, friendly staff, and easy location. We will be back for sure read more

Umi Sushi - Fun bubble displays - Japanese Near Me - Middleburg Heights, Ohio

The food is amazing and fresh. However, the restaurant actually turns guests away stating they are not taking any tables at this time! WHAT? Now, they may have many take out orders - and that is an assumption when they tell guests the wait is very long. So, why not hire more people?? From what was observed, only a server and a sushi chef were working at the restaurant. It's not good business to turn people way. Hire more people, close the dining room before you seat guests or don't honor take out during busy hours. Good luck getting a table! read more

Food was good. Sushi was amazing. Service was great. Atmosphere was also a fun place to eat.

Hidden gem here! I love their food and staff! It's a cozy little place hidden in a plaza you'd never see unless you were looking. The waitress was so awesome she cooked my son chicken tenders that wasn't even on the menu. It's some of the best sushi around! read more

While visiting family in the area we were excited to find a sushi restaurant to try. We were easily able to order online and pickup was a breeze. Sushi was nicely packaged and very fresh. Our favorite was the Seared pepper Tuna avocado roll. It was delicious! read more

Such a good de for their lunch special for great quality sushi! Would recommend trying!

Just a heads up, they are currently take-out only! The sushi is delicious! It's important to me that everything tastes fresh and how it's supposed to, and this place hits the spot! I like all the different combination rolls on their menu, it's nice to have options. It's also really nice when the sushi rice is prepared correctly and the ratio of rice to toppings is nice and not overly filled with rice, I want to taste the other stuff!!! I would definitely come back, it's well worth it! read more

Lived in Japan for 18 months. Umi Sushi has the best/freshest sushi or sashimi I have found since being back, and I have tried a LOT of other places! Friendly at pick up. Can't comment on service as I have never tried eating there. Looks simple but nice. Hope they never leave or change! Highly recommend!!! read more

Simply ok. The sushi is good, but there are better options nearby. It's take out only right now, as well. Omizu in Parma is far better.They do have other things on the menu. If you want quick sushi, this place will probably fit the bill, but it's not the best read more

Love this place it's my favorite sushi spot & soon will be yours too. It's GAT & Weez approved so u know it's good. Last time the iron man signature roll & edamame. Today it's the pearl sig. roll (tuna salmon yellowtail, crab avocado caviar roll.). Everything here is just perfect. Basically I won't stop until I've tried everything ha! Kristy the owner is super nice, it's a great little place, tastefully decorated, in the plaza across from the islander. Oh the memories at the islander & even some of them are good... Miso soup coming out. Hot & refreshing, a good palate cleanser. I love the wakami I spent half a party eating all the dulse my friends mom sent. It's got to be healthy. Ok here comes the pearl roll. Wow it's good!! My favorite roll yet. No nori just the sushi, see photo. The roe really finishes it off w a little pop. Beautiful. Even the tea is good. $46 + tip. 5 stars, I'd give them 10 stars if I could! read more

My Son and were dubious about trying this place. Its in strip mall. Its in Cleveland.... need I say more? Boy were we in for surprise. My Son LOVES salmon... they have a dish called the Salmon Lover ($16.75). You get raw salmon prepared 3 ways. 6 pieces of a roll; 3 pieces nigri; 4 pieces of sashimi. Salmon is fresh... I mean FRESH. I had some of the sashimi and there was no hint of fishiness. I ordered the Chicken Teri Combo with Steak Teriyaki ($15.75) - served on a hot iron plate (I do mean hot) so the bottom of the meat is slightly seared since the meat is resting on a bed of onions. The sauce is thick and sweet, but not sickly sweet... it was perfect with a bowl of white rice. You also get some steamed veggies along with it (broccoli, baby corn, snow peas and asparagus). I also ordered some nigri on the side. Saba ($4.75 for 2 pieces) not overly marinated. Good balance of contrasting flavors. Now what really surprised me... on the specials on the wall.. I saw they had Toro!! Seriously? In Cleveland? I ordered a piece of nigri ($8.00). It taste and behaved like toro I had before. I was GOOD Toro!! Melt in your mouth good. Yes, I am a believer. If you are in Cleveland attending one of the many Conventions... and you have a hankering for good sushi, then the name of this Restaurant says it all. Umi!! read more

If you're scrolling through Yelp reviews thinking "should I eat here?" let me save you the trouble by confirming what your stomach is probably already thinking, which is yes 100%! I've been past this plaza countless times and even gotten take out from the Jets pizza next door but low key never noticed the sushi place also in the plaza... On a cold and blustery winter night my girlfriend and I decided to check it out... There is food and drink happy hour so we went with a traditional California and fried shrimp roll. Both were good! We each went with their special ramen, the Tonkotsu Ramen. From the broth to the noodles to the pork. Everything in this was amazing to the last drop. I cannot recommend enough!! read more

We've been going to Umi for such a long time, and I can say they remain one of our favorite sushi places. The rolls are always great, and they're always fast for takeout - given we're talking about some luxury looking sushi rolls here (15-25 mins)! I've never had a bad experience with any of the rolls we've ordered (if anything, we just always end up ordering way too much). If you're a local to Middleburg, this is the sushi place for both your eyes and your tummy! read more

Amazing lunch specials and the staff is really nice. Fresh food I really enjoyed the sushi

Cute little spot. Very clean and outstanding service. The maki and sushi were delicious! Very Fresh and loved how they didn't overwhelm it with rice and sauce. Perfect portions. Also got the veggie gyoza which we loved. Best dumplings I've had in a while. Can't wait to go back! read more

Unassuming little place in a strip mall just off the highway. It was some of the best sushi we have found in the burbs of Cleveland. The dine in area is small, but there were tables available for walkin seating. It seems they do a substantial pick-up business as there had to be at least a dozzen pick ups that happened while we were there. It was just a chef and a server when we were dining, but they didn't miss a beat! Try them out! read more

I came here because of the review on Yelp. I ordered a tuna tartar, an uni, a sushi & sashimi combo that came with a spicy tuna roll, and a fried rice. The tuna tartar and uni were a bit salty. For the sushi & sashimi combo, the nigiri was surprisingly small (both the fish cut and the rice portion); I have come to several sushi restaurants and this one had the smallest nigiri size, even smaller than those you find in a buffet restaurants. The fish cut was acceptable. Plus points for the spicy tuna roll was that meat amount was actually much more than rice amount, size was bigger that usual maki roll, and the added avocado and fish roe on top made it fancier than other basic normal spicy tuna roll. Fried rice is okay but not appealing enough to recommend. Some other plus points are the friendly server and pretty looking food presentation. Overall, food was okay and price was okay. Not sure if I would come back due to the tiny size of the nigiri. read more

Love Umi Sushi. Always fresh, always friendly. I am by no stretch of the imagination a sushi connoisseur, but I know what tastes good and I know what tastes fresh, and that's what I get at Umi Sushi. Their presentation is always very nicely done as well. I have ventured a little bit off the sushi menu as well, and have found their other offerings to be good too. The Yaki Udon Seafood Noodle, for example, is where I usually land if I'm not going all sushi/sashimi. I've also had their more "Americanized" dishes such as the General Tso Chicken, but I would recommend sticking to what they're good at; Sushi! Finally, I would highly recommend their chocolate lava cake for dessert. I know, I know, it sounds crazy ordering dessert from a sushi joint, but this cake is to die for. I'm certain it's from a box or some other pre-prepared arrangement that's cooked up in the microwave, but it's delicious! And I wouldn't lie about chocolate cake! read more

Certainly was entertaining. We (4) walked into a completely empty place. Guy at counter could barely bring himself to look up from his phone. Sat down at a table. (the ONLY people in the entire place). Host walks over to tell us that "we are super busy and we won't be able to see you for at least 30 mins". We looked around..rubbed our eyes to make sure they were working..after all, we couldn't see anyone. But we can take a hint. So we left. We enjoyed the imaginary meal we ate there along with the imaginary crowd around us. Good times. read more

Super good and I love that you can get happy hour rolls for takeout since you obviously aren't dining in! Friendly service and beautiful presentation. read more

Never disappointed to visit or take out from Umi Sushi! The sushi lunch special can't be beat!

Went here with my son and it was take out only. The rolls were OK. The worst part was the avocado in the rolls, it was a little mushy and didn't seem that fresh. Have eaten better rolls from Giant Eagle! Probably will not be back. read more

Solid vehetatrian options, our server was also the chef so she told us what had duck or oyster sauce which was amazing. Mainly empty during lunch, fast service, quiet atmosphere, try the fried rice! read more

Excellent! Service was great as were the rolls. We had spicy and regular edamame. We had a party of 6 and the team loved it all. We tried the Nigori Sake and the Premium Silver. Loved the nigori which is slightly sweet and cloudy sake. We tried the dragon roll, pearl roll, spicy maki platter, and sashimi. I can't wait to come back with my kids. read more

It's a small restaurant, but luckily my friend and I beat the rush for dinner! The tables are close to each other too, so be comfortable having people around you while you eat. The service was very quick and polite. I also love how they name each of the item once they serve it to you. It was like the star of the show was being presented to us. FOOD TIME! First things first, I had to get the gyoza. We didn't even wait too long for it, and the presentation was BEAUTIFUL. (Look at my picture) I took a bite, and WOW, it was one of the tastiest gyoza I've had. I'm sure it's difficult to make bad gyoza, but this one didn't have that generic taste that you get with heating up frozen gyoza. It was the perfect size- I wasn't struggling with my chopsticks to pick it up. It had the optimal filling to wrapper ratio; I enjoyed those bites for sure. Then, I ordered the salmon nigiri (salmon sushi) and the Angel Roll. The salmon nigiri has PERFECT fish to rice ratio! I love it when sushi places don't put a huge wad of rice!!!!!!! They didn't skimp on the fish either. As for the Angel Roll, it was subpar. I think there was a horseradish sauce on it, and I'm not a big fan of horseradish, so eating it was not as enjoyable as eating the gyoza. But the presentation yall...... so beautiful. (Again, look at my picture) Overall, I'm not gonna judge a sushi place because I didn't enjoy the taste of the roll. The fish was fresh and the ratios mentioned above were on point. I will definitely come again to check out the other rolls (and order more gyoza). read more

Very good sushi. We had a variety of different kinds. I think the portions were a little small on the a la carte side but that's probably to be expected. My mother ordered a spicy roll which she said had some type of breading or crouton in/around it that she didn't like but it's not a deal-breaker according to her. Otherwise, the quality was good and the staff was polite so I would come back for sure. read more

Came to try this sushi spot. When I walked in it was empty. She asked if I was here for a pick up order I said no. That I wanted to dine in. And it's only for me one person. And the lady told me sorry we can't serve you because we are busy. Lol. See you next time she said lol. Yeah was really shocked read more

This place is amazing! It's a small and cute. My boyfriend and I wanted to come here for awhile we're definitely coming back. The sake was amazing as well. The service is great the only bad part is the wait for our food was a little longer then we thought. Also the waitress was a little rude and seemed like she didn't wanna be there at all. read more
