“ The yellow tail sushi is excellent, especially with the hot chili sauce. The steak and shrimp hibachi is also great, as it includes both rice and noodles. ”
“ I have never physically been in the restaurant but I do order through door dash. I’ve ordered from here at least 2 times and it’s been good each time. The rolls are nice size and portioned well. Just wish they gave more sauce on the roll. In the two times I’ve ordered, I get the fried salmon roll. ”

“ Haven't been to a restaurant to dine in since last year before the pandemic shut down. I asked my husband to bring me for lunch at Umi 2 for my birthday since the food is great. Ordered so much for two people since it is hard to pick because it all tastes delicious. For appetizer we had fried calamari and the vegetable tempura. For main course got the Donbury, both beef and chicken. Donbury is my favorite dish to order. Between both, I would say Beef Donbury is better. The beef is tender, dish is well seasoned and the egg scrambled makes it perfect. Ask for sriracha and chili oil to eat this dish with. Also wanted to try their beef udon soup. Was really impressed with it. The soup was very flavorful and had lots of vegetables and sliced beef. Really enjoyed it all. Umi 2 has good quality food for reasonable price. Definitely will want to come again. ”
