I’ve been wanting to try this place for a while now and it did not disappoint. The food was fantastic and our server was even better! Maria C did not miss a beat. She had great menu suggestions, was extremely attentive and pleasant. I would come back just for her!

This was our first time trying House of Umami, and overall it was a good experience with some highlights and a few misses. We ordered the bang bang chicken, chicken bao buns, a stir fry ramen bowl, and the katsu chicken rice bowl. The bang bang chicken was tasty and nicely cooked, though we definitely wished it came with more sauce. The chicken bao buns were felt more like a light cucumber sandwich than a chicken bao, but we ended up stuffing the bang bang chicken into them and made it work. The stir fry ramen bowl had great flavor, but the portion felt pretty small for the price. On the other hand, the katsu chicken rice bowl was excellent! Generous portion, amazing flavor, and easily the standout dish of the meal. The atmosphere was welcoming, and service was friendly, especially for a first visit. While not everything hit perfectly, there were enough good elements that we’d be open to coming back and trying more of the menu.

Always very clean, I love the tiger eye rolls (no jalapeño) so much that I’ve ordered at least 30 orders of them since this place opened! The music they play here is so good, and it’s always a pleasure to expand my music taste whenever we come here, and to relisten to iconic citypop classics. The servers are all so kind and fun, I don’t have all the names of the ones we’ve met but Cam, Cherish, Jeremy, Maria, Mickenzi, and many others have all been so friendly, funny, and sweet! I appreciate that the music isn’t too loud, it’s never too overstimulating in here, the lights aren’t too bright, the tables and chairs are clean, and it’s never tightly packed in here.

This is a two visit review. Everything was good. The Ramen is very flavorful! No complaints for that. The only issue was with our second visit. We order the soup dumplings, but there was noooo soup in the dumplings. Dry as a bone.

First, this place was wonderfully decorated. The staff was very friendly and attentive. I had the yellowtail and smoked salmon nigiri which was very good. I also had the Tonkotsu Ramen with the secret recipe ingriedent...black garlic. It was so delicious. I loved it and highly recommend it. Update: I visited again and had the waygu nigiri. It was very interesting.

Had driven by many occasions and wondered what this place was all about...... First impression walking in was how cool the decor was and was given a warm greeting very quickly. Everything we ordered was delicious and had no regrets on our selection. Wanted to give a shout out to Maria C for the amazing service we recieved and made our first visit one to remember! Make sure you order the Avocado Bomb because it definitely was the bomb!!!! We for sure will be back again! ‼
