Reviews
"The food was okay and not worth the money in my opinion (I am from Japan btw). You can certainly find better Japanese food for more reasonable price in London or Tokyo. The service was also very mediocre.... They made a mistake on my dessert, but they weren't so apologetic. I felt like they wanted me to take the wrong dessert... In the end I was coughing like crazy for a while for some reason, but nobody offered me water until one of the sushi chefs noticed much later. Overall very disappointing. I don't think I will go again, unfortunately."
"Huge fan of Japanese food in general and I’m not new to fine dining. I was excited to be trying Umu, but left sorely disappointed. I don’t understand why they have a Michelin star. The service is lacking, the decor/ambiance is average and the flavours are nothing new or creative. I struggle to see how and why they charge the prices they do. We spent £500+ excluding desserts. There is much better sushi available in London. Avoid."
"Excellent food, good service, relaxed atmosphere. However, we had a 9:30 booking. At 9:45 we were told that all of our food orders minus dessert needed to be in by 10pm. This led us to rush, and also ruined the normal sushi experience of ordering more pieces as needed. We also weren't able to see what was on the sashimi platter before ordering nigri. Should have been told prior to confirming the booking that this was the case. Failing that, should have been told at check-in or immediately upon seating. Ruined the vibe completely, and seems like a strange oversight for such a highly rated place. There should be no bookings past 9. One of the most expensive meals per minute I've ever had."
"Very well done Japanese food. They have sushi and regular mains, but the tasting menu is where the action is. Expect to spend at least 3 hours here. £300-400/person. Cocktails are amazing."
"An outstanding Japanese food experience in London. We ate mostly the chef's sushi selection as a lunch set. The sushi was meticulously made to be perfect. The supporting dishes of a salad, soup, and the dessert were very esthetic and delicious as well. The bathrooms reminded me of Japan, they are very clean and located far enough from the dining area to be completely separate. The service was very precise."
