We live about 5 minutes away from Umiya so when it's lunch time we take advantage of their Lunch Special Menu. You can choose any 2 Rolls for $8.95 or any 3 Rolls for $11.95. We definitely get the bang for our buck! We also order a few Baked New Zealand Mussels, they are so yummy, highly recommend. Even when we aren't dining in the food still tastes delicious. Service is always great when we go fine in and the ambiance is fun, clean and inviting. I'm so glad we live close because we get to enjoy lots and lots of sushi. read more

This specific Umiya is a great place to have lunch. Not the full menu at lunch, but you can have 80% of the dinner menu at only $21.95. Can you imagine that? Decent AYCE sushi for $22? That's only a pipe dream for some people. Service is always top notch, waiters always coming by to check in and offering a top up or new round of orders. Drinks consistently refilled, bussers always bringing food out quickly. I feel like the Live Oak location is run far better than the I-10 location. TVs with sports are usually playing around the bar. You can get full AYCE service at the bar, which is a huge plus. They have a very robust alcohol menu and the bartenders can put in new food orders right there! Great place to be for lunch. Dinner costs more, but still well worth it! read more

My parents invited us to Umiya for lunch on Saturday, we were impressed! The location shares a parking lot with Texas Roadhouse, so be prepared to park in the back if you come for dinner - we found space closer up front since we came by around 1 pm. The food is delicious; my family opted for the all you can eat; I ordered a bento box and it was a great deal: chicken teriyaki, fried rice, fried shrimp, and gyoza for under $13. I ordered a nonalcoholic Japanese mule and it was great - I plan on trying the cocktails next time. My husband commented that the sushi was fresh and he liked the concept of the server bringing plates as you're eating versus a buffet style. We definitely plan to come back; we also plan to visit the i10 location to see which one is better! read more

Absolutely love this place! I went for lunch between classes to get some schoolwork done, and I'll just say I was not disappointed. And the music was on point! Very hip hop Christmas and I loved it. I got the all you can eat lunch special and I wish I was hungrier. I could only put away 4 rolls & some crab puffs but everything was so good. I got the California roll while I searched the menu for good specialty rolls. I proceeded to get the shaggy dog, Texas, and Lexington rolls. The Texas roll was my favorite, but they were all delicious. My server stayed on top of my refills and orders. Everything was so friendly. I can't wait to go back and try their cocktails! They sound delicious read more

Giving it 3 stars due to the service we had during Mother's Day. It's All You Can Eat and our server did not explain anything to us and it was our first time there. The reason why I mentioned that because the table next to us - their server actually gave them a whole schpiel about the menu and how everything works. Our first order was fine, but after we got our food, our server was nowhere to be found! We were ready to order more food and we were out of drinks, but we had to wait for a long time before we can get any service. Besides that, the atmosphere was nice and the food was pretty good. read more

Food was good but it needed more spices. I had the hibachi combo. The noodles were spiced to perfection but the chicken and shrimp were flavorless.

I'm so happy they opened a location near me. I love the portion sizes for the sushi and sashimi. I also love that there really isn't a limit (execpt per serving) The restaurant itself was pretty cozy and clean. Staff very helpful and friendly. Even the restrooms were clean. Not Buc-ee's clean, but clean. Food... to get our money's worth we avoided (as much as possible) anything with rice. However, I couldn't resist getting a spicy salmon hand role. Those are really yummy. We started with mostly sashimi and some of the sashimi flavored appetizers. The photo is of (starting from the top) Salmon Tataki, Pepper Tuna, Tuna Cappaccio, and Yellowtail on Fire. All very delicious, but overall, my favorites were the Tuna Cappaccio and Yellowtail on Fire. Kinda wish they had a Salmon Cappaccio or even a Scallops Cappaccio! I wish I got a photo of the Fried Oreos!! Those were deadly delicious! I was so full, I kinda wanted to get more. I also got the green tea ice cream (wasn't a fan). Overall, I had to give this place 5 stars Those fried oreos though!!! read more

We decided to give this "Sushi/Sashimi" restaurant a look. I can't recall what restaurant used to reside at this location. Anyhow, interior decoration is standard with a "sushi" establishment. Service was decent and friendly staff. But appeared to be unfamiliar with the menu. Although, the staff stated she was Japanese. I might be picky, the staff couldn't tell me where in Japan she lived. Which has no influence on my assessment. The sashimi is ok, nothing that stood out as a WOW! Gotta order that again next time. Standard cream cheese assortment as with all rolls in S.A. Sashimi was descent, miso soup was also fair. It's a all you can eat, so decide what you want and how hungry are you. Might be best to order straight from menu. May save you a couple of bucks. Overall, nice place, not noisy, decor is fine and the food (sorry to say but standard). Nothing was spectacular. read more

Honestly? I was prepared to be dissatisfied and disappointed when I saw that the "chefs choice" part of the platter were not other rolls, but nigiri sushi. I'm personally not a fan of nigiri as I prefer more flavors. However, I was very pleasantly surprised to have enjoyed them and did note the fish varieties all to be tender and melt in your mouth well. Even the shrimp nigiri wasn't rubbery or terrible! The miso soup was also delicious and so were the two rolls they had on the platter. We also got the calamari, it's 10 rings, but quite nice, though I prefer the tentacles It was also very nice to note that the "sushi for two" was actually enough for two solid sushi eaters! We would have been fine even without the calamari. Restaurant: very high end, clean, nice appeal. Truly felt more like fine dinning rather than a "buffet" style some all-you-can-eat places have. Overall: very impressed with the quality of sushi and will absolutely be back and next time trying the all you can eat option! And I'm picky with my sushi quality! I come from the border or Washington and Oregon which has high Asian populations and very high quality and tasty sushi! read more

Came to try out the new sushi spot in town. The atmosphere was nice, they were decorated for Halloween which was cute. The waitress was very nice and accommodating when my child decided she only wanted to eat an avocado... I got the all you can eat option along with a tequila sunrise, the rolls were all delicious and I was pleasantly surprised that the mango was perfect and flavorful. My dinner companions got the chicken teriyaki, salmon avocado roll, and the avocado roll. Also tried out tempura cheesecake and Oreos which were great. All dishes were up to par with our expectations. My all you can eat was $31 and then I got an additional lemonade along with the alcohol for a grand total of $45. Over all it was a great experience and we'll definitely be back with family. read more

When i first moved to san antonio i was so happy to find a ayce sushi, so i was coming here regularly. I havent been to this location for about 5 months the last time wasn't bad but you could clearly tell they were understaffed. Today was by far my worst visit ever, not because of the food or the staff because of the sanitation!! My family and I were swarmed by gnat flies at first it was one or two then it was a whole flock getting on our food our drink the soy sauce, it was so overwhelming and gross we asked to be seated somewhere else but by then our appetite had gone away, but guess what they brought out to the previous table a gnat fly trap! So they know they have a problem or else why would they display one like a center piece at a table. We ordered maybe one more thing but during the wait the gnat flies came right back. I think they should consider shutting down for one day and cleaning up cause that experience gave health code violation. read more

We sat outside…read moreon the balcony, which made for a relaxed and intimate atmosphere--perfect for dinner with a view. We started with the Spam Musubi - 5/10. It was a pretty small portion, especially for sharing, and nothing really stood out to justify the price. Next was the Brisket Egg Roll - 7/10. These were packed with flavor, but again, the portion left us wanting more. For our entrées, the Crispy Karaage Chicken - 8/10 was delicious. The chicken was juicy, well-seasoned, and came in generous bite-sized pieces that were full of flavor. The TC Double Cheeseburger - 9/10 completely stole the show. It was incredibly juicy, flavorful, and cooked just right. Paired with the crispy fries, this was easily the best thing we ordered and one I'd come back for without hesitation. The Spicy Pork Belly - 6/10 looked beautiful coming out of the kitchen and was well-garnished, but it needed more sauce to really bring everything together. On its own, the flavor was a little underwhelming. Our cocktails were recommended by our server. They were enjoyable and well-balanced without being overly sweet, but nothing that really wowed us. 6/10. The ambiance was definitely one of the highlights. Sitting on the balcony overlooking the River Walk created a cozy, intimate setting that's great for a date night. Service started off a little slow, but our server acknowledged the delay and made it right by treating us to complimentary sake, which we really appreciated. Overall, Tokyo Cowboy offers a unique dining experience with a great atmosphere. While a few dishes missed the mark, the TC Double Cheeseburger alone is worth coming back for.

Umiya sushi is a delightful gem for sushi lovers, offering a perfect blend of fresh ingredients, skilled preparation, and an inviting ambiance. From the moment you step inside, you're greeted with a warm and authentic Japanese atmosphere, making it an ideal spot for both dinner with friends and special occasions. The sushi here is outstanding, with an impressive variety of rolls, nigiri, and sashimi. Each dish is meticulously crafted, showcasing the freshness of the seafood and the precision of the chefs. The rolls just melt in your mouth, and the spicy crunch roll is a must-try for those who enjoy a mix of textures and flavors. The menu also features creative fusion options, but without compromising the traditional essence of sushi. The staff is quick and attentive. They make sure your dining experience is smooth, whether you're a seasoned sushi enthusiast or a first-timer. They are quick with it, respectfully. The restaurant strikes a perfect balance between modern elegance and traditional Japanese design. Soft lighting, minimalistic décor, and soothing music with a touch fun to create a calm and relaxing environment and a sprinkle bangers. It's a great place for a date night or a dinner with friends. While Umiya is roughly $31 for all you can eat, the quality of the food justifies the cost. Portions are generous, and the attention to detail in every dish makes it worth every penny. Umiya truly surprised me. Whether you're there for a quick bite or a semi fancy dinner, you'll leave satisfied and eager to return. Highly recommended for anyone seeking high-quality sushi and excellent service. read more

I am honestly really disappointed with my experience at Umiya. I've been here multiple times before and never had an issue, which made this visit even more frustrating. This is an all you can eat restaurant, yet we waited over 15 minutes just to place an order. Our waiter, Ferri, was extremely inattentive. We were left sitting with empty plates, watching other tables get taken care of while we were completely ignored. No check-ins, no explanation nothing. At an all you can eat place, slow and careless service completely ruins the experience, and that's exactly what happened here. I expected much better based on my past visits to Umiya, but this visit left me feeling annoyed and let down. It's not a good feeling to pay for an experience and feel forgotten. Unless service improves, I'm very hesitant to return. read more

I've been back to Umiya four times now, and it keeps delivering on every level. The food is consistently incredible, the service is top-notch, and the bar vibe is exactly what I'm looking for after a long day. The martinis? Fantastic. All of them! A special shoutout to Alex, who is a phenomenal bartender. He takes the time to listen, understand your preferences, and creates cocktails that match perfectly. It's clear he takes pride in his craft, and it makes every visit feel personal and memorable. DISCLAIMER: If Alex isn't bartending, all bets are off. The quality of the drinks is definitely different. Umiya has officially become one of my go-to spots! read more

The majority of the sushi platters were topped with a generous dollop of mayonnaise, which unfortunately contributed to a uniform flavor across the entire meal. While the visual presentation was appealing, the distinct tastes of the various sushi rolls became muddled, leaving little room for the unique nuances of ingredients like fresh fish, crisp vegetables, and vinegared rice to shine through. Each bite felt reminiscent of the last, diminishing the excitement of exploring the different flavors that sushi is renowned for. read more

I had never eaten here before so I was really excited to try it and I'm so glad they brought me here because every single thing we tried was absolutely delicious! We sat outside on the patio, there was a nice breeze, and it wasn't too hot, and there weren't too many people out there, which was nice. Our server was great, she checked on us just enough, but not so much that it was bothersome. Off of the happy hour menu we ordered the shrimp and we love them so much we ordered a second one. We also ordered seaweed salad, which was delicious, pork dumplings, which were perfect, and the ginger, garlic beef with tempura sweet potato fries, and that was really good. I just wish that it wasn't ground beef because it was a little bit hard to get with chopsticks. We ordered a Philadelphia roll, and I cannot remember the names of the other two but one of them had yellow fish. (Sashimi I think) everything was wonderful and tasted super fresh.

Our little picky eater loved the ramen and chicken karaage as well. Normally, kids' ramen bowls are plain and tasteless, but there was flavor in this one. Their katsu dishes, however, are a must try. It comes with pickled veggies, salad + dressing, sesame seeds (you grind) and dipping sauce, rice , and miso soup. The presentation alone was awesome. Service was great. Decor and vibe was excellent.
