Best Sushi Restaurants in Wekiwa Springs

As always dinner last night at Umi was exceptional. The sushi is fresh and well prepared and the hot entrées are delicious especially the Wagyu hot stone. Always appreciate the great service! 

Wow! What a treat! I had heard great things, but this was my first time there. The drinks were exceptional and the food was sublime. Everything was prepared beautifully and it was the highest quality. I am thrilled to have this calibre sushi restaurant in Orlando. This was my first time having hand rolls and it will not be the last. I cannot wait to return and try some of the others. I had the crab hand roll and my friend had the Wagyu steak, plus we dined on shishito peppers and crab salad. We finished by sharing the truffle salmon sushi roll. All were otherworldly! I highly recommend.

This is the place to go for heat food, great servers, ina great environment. Too may restaurants are open and noisy. You We had a can still feel the buzz of activity, but also intimate enough to have conversations. Dang Bang Shrimp was great. As well as the entrees, Surf and Surf special (black grouper (with crab topping) & shrimp scampi, crab cakes, and a filet mignon. No that wasn’t all me, there were three of us. Great wine selection, well priced for the quality of food and drinks that you get. Now onto the server. We had Kevin! I know, you’re thinking, just tell us the service was good so we can book our reservation. No! I’m telling you to book your reservation and ask for Kevin. All the servers here are great. Very helpful, attentive, friendly, and fun. But Kevin was all that and more! He had a great sense of humor and put up with me….. that’s allot of you know me. He knew the menu and drinks well, was quick to make suggestions for my, very slow to decide sister, and patient. So bottom line, great environment, amazing food, fantastic wine list, and KEVIN! Now, go find a time and make a reservation, you can stop looking.

Let me start by noting that the staff is amazing, professional, helpful, friendly and they move like a well oiled machine. The experience starting with champagne at the bar area and the small bites with multiple layers of flavor and texture prepare the pallet and your head for an adventure. Moving into the kitchen/main dining area you feel you’re a participant as each chef and each of the wait staff explains the course as they’re presented. We opted for the wine pairing which worked perfectly as each dish was paired with a wine that compliments and enhances the dish. You finish in the dessert alcove and it didn’t disappoint a beautiful vino santo wine pairing. It was my wife’s birthday and the little surprises and acknowledgment by the staff made it an a truly amazing evening. I not going to talk about the dishwasher than to say prepare yourself for a taste and texture adventure.

Great food, tastes original! Definitely going back.
