Amazing experience, very good food and amazing flavors. We will definitely come back here.

We had an early reservation which us great service, we did notice that as it became busier the service did slow down. So I would recommend coming here on time.

We ordered two dishes. One with rice and the other one with noodles. Food was surprisingly good. Trying Asian food during our European trip is weird. But we found this restaurant good. Very good Ambience, yes costly but not like other rich restaurants. They have a neat washroom as well. Well maintained and good service. Recommended.

Very fair price-quality relation. The Bib gourmand tasting menu seemed much better than the vegetarian option. Some flavours and ingredients preparation seemed repeated. The Bib gourmand menu tasted overall very good with ok presentation. Attentive service. The space was a bit crowded but not too excessively. Recommended 👍 but not a transformative experience

This is a nice restaurant with a brilliant menu - we went for the menu where you choose your dishes and it is good value for the amount of food you get. The options were well thought out and all of the meat was really tender. We also enjoyed the veggie gyoza a lot 🥟 The rendang dish was cold which was a shame and some of the dishes had halved cherry tomatoes/sliced radish on - they didn't compliment the flavours and looked a bit messy.

We had the four-course preset menu alongside wine paring and some cocktails. All in all, we liked the experience and the food was satisfying in both taste and portion.

Food at Umami is creative, some being a bit generic but some being quite tasteful. We really like the shrimp with tomato sauce, it really felt like a good fusion between Eastern and Western food. The potato and carrot was delicious, I wanted to ask for more.

Wine paring was rather disappointing, or should I say we expected a little more. It was not bad paring but somehow didn’t enhance the food that was served. Maybe Asian food has too much character that the wine with it feels a bit off? Cocktails were fine, not too special. Go for Gin based cocktail and it’s safe.

The service was good, staffs were attentive when needed. They didn’t pay special attention to each table but the service was smooth and everybody was kind and smiley. The atmosphere is not bad, although the acoustic made it difficult to understand everything. Also the entrance part of the restaurant has better lighting and inviting feel to it, compared to the ones we sat near the toilet.

I think it is an interesting restaurant if you like trying different dishes with creative twist in it. Considering that it is a course meal, the price is also not too bad.
