Came here for my birthday and had an overall excellent dining experience. From the speed of service which could seem a little pushy at first, but rest assured they will let you take your time if you just let them know; to the quality of everything on your plate, from avocado to yellowtail, the attention to detail and freshness of the product speaks for itself. The fun, innovative, and “out of the box†style thinking of rolls using modern flavor combinations, and techniques are only matched the great sake menu. Do yourself a favor and ask to sit at the bar to watch the masters at work, and maybe get a tip of what you should try next...the specials board was wonderful as well and we even tried some fish “never frozen†from Japan which was life changing for my dining companion. We hope to return soon and often. Keep up the great work!

Just had an amazing dinner from Umami Restaurant & Sushi Bar! I had a Philadelphia, Cajun Salmon, and Heisenberg roll. The balance and waves of flavor kinda took me by suprise. The Cajun Salmon had a light smoky favor with a spicy that hit at the end - so good. The Heisenberg was huge, but so delicate with a creamy lightness. SO GOOD!Mom had the 5-Spice Calamari (again so delicate) and Teriyaki w tofu. Really great flavor.This place may become a habit.

Consistently great food. The chef really cares about quality and brings in interesting cuts of fish to try from all over the world. Stylish, romantic atmosphere with great lighting. Creative food presentation. The spicy tuna crispy rice roll is fantastic. The serves are always nice. Umami is a rare gem in Melbourne.

The best around. Attention to detail. Combinations of flavor to excite the entire tongue in one bite, paired with mouth-watering herb toppings, led by enticing presentation for the eyes. Order multiple rolls to share and some precisely-cut individual pieces on special.

Unexpectedly great sushi restaurant! Tried the Rainbow Roll, salmon roll, veggie Spring Rolls. Can't wait to go back & try more.

Everything we had was really really delicious, although a bit pricey but was definitively worth it! Everything was freshly made, double tuna roll, takoyaki , the king of the north (love The GoT reference ) and some nigiris. The service was great also, definitely my go to sushi place in Melbourne, keep up with the great work guys!

I ate sushi at university. I hated it. But this was the best sushi ever. If anyone wants to try sushi for the first time this is your place.

I visited for the first time with a friend and this is the best sushi place I've come across! Very fresh fish, beautiful presentation of the food, relaxing and clean environment, and good customer service. I will be returning!

Umami is the perfect name for this restaurant!They consistently outshine every other sushi place I have been to locally. I've had my fair share of sushi in major metropolitan cities, and they stand up to those. Great date night atmosphere, extensive sake menu, love the bulgogi if you are anti-seafood. Below is spicy salmon, spicy crunchy tuna, and King of the North rolls.
