UMITO SUSHI AND RAMEN

So happy Mid-Wilshire has a new sushi spot in the mix! Umito is such a welcome addition to the neighborhood. The space is cute with a fun, inviting ambiance that makes it great for anything from a casual dinner to a low-key night out. Service was great, and the staff super friendly.

Bonus points for validating parking for 1.5 hours, which is a small detail that makes a big difference in this area.

The salads were refreshing and the portions were just right not too overwhelming. Chris was our waiter & he was really sweet & kind to us. The sushi chef gave us some extra fish as a bonus! We were very impressed overall with the food, service, and t
