Umami left to you

Wonderful Omakase Experience in Cambridge Restaurant Name: Umami Omakase It was great to visit Umami Omakase once again; the restaurant's interior transported me to Japan, creating a truly immersive dining experience. The food, ranging from a delightful variety of rolls to other exquisite delicacies, was nothing short of amazing, and every dish came with thoughtful explanations from the chef or server, enhancing the experience even further. The attentive servers added to the enjoyment by engaging in conversations, making the Omakase meal truly interactive. Pros: - The restaurant's interior design provides an authentic and immersive Japanese dining atmosphere. - The diverse menu offers a wide range of delicious rolls and other delicacies. - The staff's informative explanations of each dish and their overall attentiveness contribute to an exceptional dining experience. Cons: - While not a major issue, it's advisable to arrive a bit earlier than your reservation time due to limited street parking availability. Overall Impression: One of the top traditional omakase experiences in the Greater Boston area. I recommend others to give it a try. Omakase experiences are always on the pricey end, so I recommend you give this a visit during special occasions. You will not regret it!

Definitely not worth the price. Atmosphere is seriously lacking. There’s no art on the walls and it’s clear there wasn’t much investment made into creating any sort of ambiance. The staff were very kind, but could not accommodate my dietary preferences (dairy free) for every course. The food was good but I’ve had better for cheaper. Many of the dishes used chopped up bits of fish that were left over from what they couldn’t use for sashimi or nigiri. It’s a great way for them to turn a big margin. Don’t pay for the uni. At $25 for one piece, I expected it to come straight out of its shell and into my plate. What I got instead was something out of a box that didn’t taste nearly as fresh as it should. Total waste of money. If this meal cost half of what I paid, I would have given it 3 stars instead of 2.

Just went here for my husband's birthday. I had no idea what to expect since the price was so high but WOW it was worth it. I am not a huge raw fish fan (this was an experience mainly for my husband) but after tonight I may be. Everything was prepared expertly, the food was fresh, and the portions were perfect. Loved the mix of nigiri, sashimi, and cooked meats with amazing bursts of unique flavor. We also got the sake pairings, which were perfect. Not to mention the incredible chefs who offered amazing, attentive service. We highly recommend for a special occasion or a fun night out!
