    Sushi was top quality. However, the portion to price ratio is ridiculous. Nigiri was fresh and tasty, but very small. Rolls the same. Our bill for two was north of $300. I don’t mind paying relatively high prices if the quality, portion size, ambience, and service all hit the mark. This one did not.

    This is the best kept secret! If you’re looking cheap sushi, and by the way that’s called gross, then just don’t eat sushi, it’s never cheap. Now that we have that out of the way…..This place is sooooo yummy. I think this is the best sushi place in all of Houston. The staff is knowledgeable and very attentive to your needs. They have what’s called “signature” sushi pieces. It has little embellishments on top and really enhances the flavors of the fish. Their Sake (fresh salmon) is the creamiest, best thing I’ve ever eaten. Try it out. You’ll love it!!

    It was a nice meal, service was a little slower than usual and sunonono salad had no sauce or seasoning. However we enjoy the quality of food which’s consistently good and the ambiance. Sparkling and champagne list could have more options.

    I eat plenty of sushi but this is the Best sushi I have had, EVER. It’s so fresh, full of flavor and just delicious. I recommend sitting on the sushi-bar if you can. It’s a fun experience. The music was perfect. The interior gave immaculate vibes. The employees are so attentive and nice. Will be back.

    Service was top notch. Tables felt a bit close together- we could hear the intimate details of our neighbors conversation. The food was mediocre at best. Not much flavor. Rice was spot on for nigiri. Lychee martini was excellent. Disappointed that such bland nigiri and rolls came with such a hefty price tag. Wouldn’t go back.

    This was our second time dining at Ume. The first time was about a month ago and we were literally blown away by the level of service and quality/taste of the food. This time, for our anniversary (which falls around Valentine’s Day), we left feeling disappointed. I don’t know if they simplified their chef’s sushi/nigiri offerings in anticipation of the Valentine’s Day crowds or what, but everything seemed bland. Even the rice was different (in a bad way) from our previous visit, it was mushy and way too vinegary. I think this place really has the potential to be amazing, but they need to work on their consistency.

    An amazing experience the minute you walk in. Greeted waiting for table to be ready , hostess walked us to bar , bartenders were very attentive. 5 minutes later we chose to be seated at sushi bar. Every cut of sashimi was fresh, the Hamachi Kama grilled (yellow tail cheek) was super good. Try the live scallops sashimi,melted like butter. Drinks were perfect. The stars of the night were the Sushi chefs, watching them create art was amazing. They were very talkative. We bought them a few beers right before they closed. Toasted to a Perfect birthday dinner for my wife!!

    Food was mediocre for the price. No wow factor. The wagyu skewer was just three very pieces of meat and was over $35. Not worth it.

    Excellent sushi from the people who own MF Sushi. Fresh, exciting flavors beautifully presented and served quickly by a great staff. The decor is modern, minimalist and doesn’t take focus away from the main star of the show, the food. It is expensive, easy to spend $100 per person but if that fits your budget you will leave very happy that you ate here.

    I have now scheduled 8 to 10 business dinners and every meal has been great. Today my largest party at 6 guests. Started a bit slow with a single dish for a table for 6 with awkward passing but a simple comment to the waiter corrected after the third dish to split portions given size. Loved eating whatever the chef prepared and the drinks and sake were wonderful. Best sushi in Houston!

    The service is great, the food is tasty and they offer a gluten free menu! I always enjoy the quality of Ume, even though it’s pricey! The atmosphere is romantic, but if it’s a game night the screen they have over the bar doesn’t work well- they need a flat screen tv instead. Overall, great spot for a romantic evening!!
