Umu Restaurant has this cozy yet elegant atmosphere, making it an ideal spot to enjoy their impressive selection of premium sake imported from Japan. The food quality, taste and presentation is outstanding! The chefs have an exquisite attention to detail on the dishes. My favourite dish is the Wagyu Tataki, perfectly seared, tender, and full of flavour. The service is equally delightful and attentive. Staff were welcoming and friendly. I’ll definitely be returning.

I had a great experience at UMU Restaurant, a great choice for anyone looking for authentic Japanese food! I ordered a salad as a starter and sushi as a main course, the pieces were very well cut and fresh, I chose the chef's top 10, and I couldn't have made a better choice, it was great! I also ordered this Yuzu Passion drink, which by the way was also very good, very fresh and not sweet at all, just the way I like it. Both the waiters and the manager were courteous and polite to me from the moment I arrived until I left. I definitely recommend this place and will be back again! It's worth the experience ☺️
