Umi Japaneese Cuisine - Somerdale

Always here for dinner. They are family business with the lovely environment. Recommend Hibachi combination dinner with Shrimp and chicken. Appetizer you have to try Gyoza and beef negimaki. Have to try their tempura ice cream, it?s amazing!

The sushi was okay but I?m kind of disappointed that the rolls did not come how they were listed. I ordered a spicy cooked shrimp roll and it didn?t come with anything in it except what looks like fried batter. There were no vegetables and the tiniest pieces of shrimp and it?s definitely not spicy! I also ordered a spicy crabmeat roll and it looks and tastes almost exactly the same as the other roll I listed above. If there?s a next time maybe it will be better

I usually never leave reviews however I am very displeased with the way I was treated this evening when ordering take out from Umi Japanese In Somerdale NJ on Wednesday April 29th, 2020. When calling I ordered some sushi and because my girlfriend doesn?t eat seafood she decided on the Scallop N.Y. Steak combination that costs $23.95 and was planning on giving me the scallops. The combination comes with 2 pieces of shrimp as advertised on the picture directly from the website. Once I stated that I would like the scallop and NY Steak combo I asked if it came with fried rice and then if I could replace the 2 pieces of shrimp with 2 pieces of the EBI shrimp from the Sushi or Shashimi section #7 EBI (Shrimp) for $2.25 which the lady that took my order said ?No we do not have that shrimp.? I said ok and settled for the 2 pieces of shrimp it comes with and after confirming the soup and salad she said ok Come pick up in 40 minutes. She did not repeat the order which is usually standard when ordering over the phone. She also did not ask me how I would like the N.Y. steak. Rare, medium Rare, Well done which also is common practice when somebody is ordering a steak. After 45 minutes my girlfriend and I arrived at Umi and the order still was not ready so after another 5 to 10 minutes we finally got the food and I paid the order total of $53.80 and left the store. Finally after over an hour after ordering we sat down to eat to which the Combination Steak Scallops was about 10 shrimp 4 scallops NO steak and the 2 extra pieces of shrimp!? I immediately called Umi and told them of their mistake and the lady insisted that I did not order steak because she always asks how people want their steak prepared, which to her, supposedly confirms that I did not order the steak like I said I did. She said that I could come and get half of a steak for her mistake even though it was obvious that she still thought I ordered shrimp which I did not. She acted as though she was doing me a favor and to add insult to injury she still did not ask how I wanted it prepared!!! I arrived back at UMI about 15 minutes later now almost an hour and a half after placing the initial order and she had a small bag with about 1/4-1/2 of a steak precut that looked well done, when my gf would have liked medium rare but again she never asked for a second time. Now my gfs dinner consists of a salad and a 1/4-1/2 of a well done precut steak. The cook said your welcome before I even had a chance to say thank you because even after this I was just happy to be on my way to finally eat over $50.00 of cold food. At minimum I fell as tho I should have been given the full steak and an apology for the misunderstanding. Had they have simply made it right this review would be about the food and not the poor customer service. I?m afraid that we will not be ordering from Umi again due to poor service.

I stopped here for the first time for my birthday dinner and they were very accommodating, attentive, and personable! The food was amazing, I always love eel when it?s done right and they do it amazing unlike a lot of local places. Drinks were great too! Reasonably priced and not too weak.

Umi is the perfect spot for delicious and fresh sushi. It is a family-owned business that takes pride in their food. My go-to order is the Sushi Regular with Miso Soup, while my wife and daughter enjoy the fall roll or hot girl. The food is all delicious and the staff, including Jill, are very friendly and welcoming.
