Umami

The sushi has a nice fusion to it, we can't get enough of the taste so yummy. Our preferred place whenever we have some sushi craving. I would also recommend the seafood ramen, one of the best so far.

The best sushi/japanese restaurant in alkhobar. The food was really tasty and the fish on the sushi was fresh and delicious. Also, as a source of entertainment, they give each person two sudoko tables to play and fill out. In addition, the background music creates a calm and relaxing atmosphere. Other than that, the survive was good, although a bit slow. Overall, it was a good experience, i would definitely recommend going if you are craving japanese cuisine.

The food was great, decent and clean restaurant. The price was average for its food. Filipino waiter was nice. I will surely come back!

Perfect right from the word go. great ambience. helpful staff. small place with a very relaxing atmosphere. beef tacos wer out of the world. the ramen seafood soup was good. the sushi’s wer mind blowing. nothing i can complain of.

A usual customer for over a year now! Hands down the best sushi place in the Eastern province! It is so tasty to the point I don't want people to know about it! Katsu chicken, spicy edemami, the tempura are just out of this world! Shout out to brother Mahbob the most awesome waiter in town!

If you're looking for a delicious and authentic Japanese dining experience in Dammam, look no further than Umami Restaurant . From the moment you walk in, you'll feel transported to Japan, with traditional decorations and a welcoming atmosphere.

The menu is extensive and offers a wide range of Japanese cuisine, from sushi and sashimi to tempura and udon noodles. Everything is expertly prepared using fresh ingredients, and the presentation is beautiful.

One of the standout dishes at this restaurant is their sushi. The fish is incredibly fresh and the rice is perfectly seasoned. You can tell that the chefs take great care in creating each piece of sushi.

Another highlight of the menu is the tempura, which is light and crispy, with a variety of vegetables and seafood to choose from. The udon noodles are also a must-try, with a savory broth and chewy noodles that are the perfect comfort food.

The service at Umami Restaurant is top-notch, with attentive and friendly staff who are happy to make recommendations and ensure that your dining experience is enjoyable. The restaurant itself is also immaculately clean and well-maintained.

Overall, I highly recommend Umami Restaurant for anyone looking for an authentic and delicious Japanese dining experience in Dammam. The food, service, and atmosphere are all exceptional, making for a truly memorable meal.

First of all, its one of the best modern fusion japanese restaurants that I have tried..
They have wide array of menu that covers almost everything that a Japanese Restaurant should have. They covered the mostly craved dishes such as Ramen, Makis, Nigiris and Katsu Curries which most of the restaurants in the Eastern Province lack one or two.. we tried the Chicken Ramen- absolutely delicious also plant base broth. Dynamite Maki, Udon Beef Noodles and Chicken Yakitori. We also tried their mocktails. Overall, the food is delicious and its cheaper than other Japanese restaurants that makes it appealing to alot of Japanese cuisine lovers in the province

This my 3rd time and never disappoint me everything is perfect

delicious asian cuisine with a feel good ambiance for dine in....service is great...with food to fill your stomachs that will deight your tastebuds too

My new favorite restaurant! I can actually say I walked out feeling so much more wonderful than when arrived.

We first tried this place by chance after choosing it for delivery. I was so impressed by how each sushi roll was encased in a box that made it feel like a gift opening each one. Each roll came with its own tiny glass jar of soy sauce which elevated the experience. The taste was truly sublime. Every dish we ordered was rich and succulent. Textures and flavors complimented each other well. Umami had made its impression.

Weeks later while searching for a place to dine in, we talked about Asian cuisine and Umami came to mind. We found it and entered a beautifully serene and modern location. We had our older children with us and felt welcomed with smiles as we entered. The staff were kind and attentive and knew their menu inside and out. They provided us with recommendations that fit our taste. The food was excellent. Most of our plates were cleaned off completely, we couldn’t get enough. We even ordered double orders for take away to enjoy later (seafood ramen & chicken fried rice). The udon noodles were crave-worthy and succulent. The shrimp gyoza was sublime, slightly crusted on the outside and tender on the inside. Even the tiny ice nuggets in our drinks would bring back hereto do this all over again. 5 stars for my experience here. Impressive on every level.

So far, I have to three Japanese restaurants in Dammam. For the variety of GOOD food, this takes the lead. Their BBQ was excellent, even though it was the last thing to come. The only concern we had was the wait time for the BBQ, but they gave us a dessert as an apology.
Their sushi was great and actually tasted like something. Normally, this isn’t what I would say about the others that I tried.
As for the atmosphere, it would be 80%, but that’s because it felt like every other restaurant. There wasn’t something that stick out, and that’s alright. I personally would’ve preferred if it was like a traditional Japanese shop, but once again, it was totally worth it. I am definitely coming back once I get the chance.

I said before best sushi ever , everything delicious and yummy ,every part of taste in your mouth is happiness 💚💚🍀🍀

The food and service are amazingly good. The prices are good for the food and service quality received. The owner and the staff are welcoming and friendly.

This place is underrated. The food is delicious, the place is nice although they need to pay attention to the cleanliness of the furniture and walls but overall, I highly recommend it for sushi lovers.
