I was impressed by the way the server asked about customizing our ramen and even made a suggestion regarding spice levels. He was attentive and checked in after we had a few moments to see if anything needed changing or we had concerns. I am also a huge fan of black garlic ramen which he overheard and brought some extra of the black garlic to make sure it was exactly the way I liked it. I have been a few times, usually later in the day and even when full it is easy to chat with the people in your party, today I got there as they opened so it was nice and quiet but started filling in by the time we left.

I order led the salmon roll and the dragon roll. The flavor and fish in both rolls were amazing but the I just could get over the rice. Overall, 3.5/5

Clean, quick and good…read more Went in with a craving for gyoza - pan fried is actually hard to find and after a quick google search I ended up here. Wasn't in the mood for ramen - they had plenty, so I opted for chashyu curry (listed as pork curry on the menu). It was decent. Place was half full when I got there, a line out the door by time I left. Gyoza, big bowl of pork and rice and curry and a Sapporo for $23. Would recommend. In: 6:45 Out: 7:20

Japanese food is among my favorite types of cuisine in the Valley, but with how many ramen shops…read morethere are all over town, I don't usually spring for ramen unless it's truly exceptional -- and this place is exceptional. I think it might even be up there as one of my new favorite ramen spots in town, alongside Hashi in Chinatown and Kyuramen in Anthem! The best part is, with how close this restaurant is to my place, I don't have to make nearly as long of a drive if I want ramen. Umai Ramen is located in the Target shopping complex on Sunset and Stephanie, tucked away in the line of shops between Hobby Lobby and Ross. I first spotted this place when I went to the nearby H&R Block to get my taxes done earlier in the year, but I never really had an excuse to come out here until I had the ramen craving strike, and hard -- hence why I decided to bite the bullet and check the place out. One of the things that struck me immediately was their offerings -- of course, they have ramen of all types as you might guess from the name. But they also have different styles of ramen that you don't typically find anywhere, like the more elusive mazemen no-broth ramen, udon noodles, and even tsukemen-style ramen! To say nothing of some of the appetizers -- again, while they have the typical offerings of other noodle houses in town, they also have a selection of items that you really can't find anywhere else. They have multiple types of ramen with unusual toppings, such as their truffle ramen with mushrooms and steak (I need to try that next time I'm here), but I went pretty safe with their black garlic ramen, considered a signature item on their menu, and added an extra egg to it. If I were honest, I didn't need it because the ramen was so full of delicious toppings that I couldn't put my chopsticks or spoon down! Their appetizers are also a must -- I ordered their orange salmon and mango scallops, and I would highly recommend both of those as well. Between bites, the servers would check in on me, refill my water, and provide additional napkins as needed, as well. Needless to say, I'm hooked -- and already I'm thinking of the next time I go here! What will I try next? If you're in the area, give Umai Ramen a try. You just might come back for more.

I had some favorite ramen shops in Philly that I still think are stellar, but the one thing they were missing was this minced pork. I will add that **** to EVERY kind of ramen bowl! I like it even more than the char siu! I ordered the takoyaki appetizer and was not disappointed. I must have been a cat in a past life because I am obsessed with bonito fish flakes and you can never put too many of those on top. The only thing I struggle with is the fact that I feel guilty eating octopus, so I don't order takoyaki as often as I used to. The service is friendly and the beer is cold. The ambience is relatively low lighting, cozy izakaya vibe, with modern touches in the decor. The icing on the cake is the face that they have melon cream soda. Ramen. Minced Pork. Beer. Melon soda. Cozy, clean atmosphere. You don't have to twist my arm to get me to tell you I'm a regular now. My mom tried tonkatsu for the first time and I'm happy to report that she really liked it. (I knew she would.) Also, if you are a sometimes solo diner like me, this is a nice little hideaway for that too.

Disappointing Flavors, But a Hardworking Staff…read more I visited hoping for a satisfying Japanese meal, but unfortunately the food fell short on almost every front. The Ultimate Ramen, despite its name, was underwhelming -- mediocre at best, lacking the depth and richness you'd expect from a bowl with that kind of billing. The sushi rolls were equally disappointing. Both the California Roll and the Philly Roll suffered from bland, flavorless rice -- the foundation of any good sushi. The sweetness and tanginess that should come through in well-seasoned sushi rice were completely absent. The Philly Roll was especially let down by the cream cheese, which had virtually no taste and added nothing to the roll. Even the wasabi lacked any real heat or pungency, which honestly surprised me the most. The one bright spot was the service. Our server was working the floor entirely on her own and still managed to be attentive and pleasant throughout. That kind of dedication deserves recognition. Overall, the kitchen needs to revisit its seasoning and flavor profiles across the board. With some attention to the basics properly seasoned rice, quality ingredients, and bold condiments,this place could be so much better. For now, it's hard to recommend.

The food was cold, and the portions were absolutely ridiculous for the price they charge. When I paid for my pickup order, I initially felt bad that I didn't tip since I was picking up the food, especially because the staff was nice. But once I saw how little food they gave for the price, I didn't feel bad anymore. This place is not worth spending your money on. The quality of the food is below average--I would rate it less than 3 stars.
