UMI Sushi - Ellicott City

I believe Umi Sushi serves some of the freshest sushi in Ellicott City. It’s also one of the busiest spots in Old Town, which says a lot about its popularity. The atmosphere is pleasant and inviting, and the servers are especially friendly and attentive. The only downside is that the tables are placed a bit close together, which can make the space feel slightly crowded. Overall, if you’re looking for fresh sushi in Ellicott City, this is definitely a place I would recommend.

While visiting friends in Columbia, we had lunch at UMI Sushi. For an appetizer, we shared the Gyoza that was really good. We ordered the Tsunami Boat, as well as the Royal Steak, Philly and Honeymoon rolls. It was so much sushi for four people and it was so delicious. The presentation of sushi was very well done. If you are looking for great sushi, I really recommend UMI Sushi.

Always friendly. Always tasty. Some of the outside chairs (which is our favorite place to sit) are NOT plus size friendly. The arms are too close and dug into me. Fortunately they do have other chairs. The patio is delightful. It’s a nice place to have dinner with friends or a romantic dinner with your partner. We always eat here for my birthday each year. Please note - one time we made the mistake of buying the boat when it was just the two of us - IT WAS SO MUCH SUSHI OMG! It was comical setting that on a table for two. We didn’t realize! We had to abandon some of it.

UMI Sushi was perfect. Excellent sushi and sashimi. Great wine list. A friend and I were celebrating our mutual birthday and we wanted something special (both being sushi lovers!). We got what we bargained for. I can imagine anything on the menu is great, and I wanted to order EVERYTHING. Fine and efficient wait staff, cute atmosphere. What more could we have asked for?

Friends brought us here for dinner recently. Excellent gyoza and sushi. I had the rainbow sushi (crabmeat, avocado, salmon, tuna, yellow tail and white tuna); my husband had one with eel, shrimp, egg, crabmeat, etc., (called the Captain). We also had the house salad with the ginger dressing. Everything was delicious and fresh made. This place was packed, service very good. They have outdoor seating in the back, but it was too chilly to sit outside. Highly recommended.
