Umi Japanese Restaurant

I miss my favorite sushi restaurant in Boston!

by HSP11 at Citysearch

I first started going to Umi when I lived on Peterborough and it quickly became my favorite sushi restaurant in Boston. I was horrified when I found out it burned down and am hoping they will rebuild. The sushi is excellent, as are the udon and miso soup. The prices were good and the staff was always friendly.

• Pros: Excellent sushi, great value
• Cons: It burned down and has not been rebuilt!

Creative!

This is my kind of sushi! Every tray and dish brought to you is carefully made and the designs and color of each piece is extravagant. The skill and art of their specials is unlike any other sushi I've seen. I'm a huge fan of sushi and believe me I've been to many other places but Umi has me coming back for more!

Must try.

I'm a bit shocked at the low ratings, however I go to Umi at least twice a week, and while their service is not fast, it isn't slow at all. If you've never been, or are deciding, I'd say, side with going, it is a must try! I got addicted to this little sushi place the first time around. You don't have to worry about being rushed, it is a cozy and comfortable place to eat, where you can take your time. Great fresh sushi!
