Umi Sushi - Vacaville

This is our go to for a great price Sushi. When you have 3 teenage boys who eat 2 whole rolls each sushi night can get expensive. Umi delivers good sushi for a great price.

This place is underrated. Best tasting sushi I've had in the area. We have favorites in sac and sf or alameda. This is comparable.

Writing an honest review in hopes that something (anything) will improve. Or maybe this place will just close. TLDR: my husband and I both got sick after dinner. Not sure how this place is a functioning business. 0.05 stars/ 5 because I just feel bad for all involved. Details: Service 1.5/10 our server gets a couple points because he was decent and checked on us frequently, but when I mentioned it was our first time to the restaurant and inquired about any good dishes, he chuckled before saying umm... I don 't know. The sushi girl and sushi boy rolls are popular . (This was red flag #1, I wish I could say we got up and left here). He couldn 't have cared less, but honestly I don 't blame him because I wouldn 't want to be the face of this place either. Two other young ladies didn 't acknowledge our existence when dropping off dishes and one came back to confirm that we had ordered what she brought over with a monotone voice and expressionless face. Food 1/10 one point for fresh edamame, but it was then doused in sweet chili oil. The fried gyoza must 've been frozen first and extra deep fried before being served. I can only compare them to bottom of the basket fast food chicken nuggets in gyoza form too much overcooked oil and sure to ruin your insides. We then regretfully ordered the crunchy roll and sushi girl roll. My husband 's last bite of the crunchy roll included a hidden shrimp tail that he had to inconspicuously spit out at the table (he threw up the rest 5 minutes after leaving the restaurant in a parking lot across town... apologies to anyone who witnessed this). Ginger Wasabi 0/10 this deserves its own section because I 've never seen something like this in my life. Every table had a set of two jars that would typically contain a chili oil or soy sauce at other restaurants, but this establishment filled them with stale, fake, pink dyed ginger and old wasabi. Not only does this come across as lazy service, it 's simply gross. Do with this information what you will. I don 't enjoy writing negative reviews, but this needed to be shared.

Definitely must have, sushi is bomb, flavorful and legit. Price is more than fair. Take my family of 10 here almost 4-5x a month.

I've had a Japanese Chicken Katsu a lot of times. There's also a lot of Hawaiian Barbecues out there that make different versions of this. It's not the best source of protein and I might not want it everyday, but it is what it is. It's like a West Texas Country-Fried Steak, an Austrian Schnitzel, or an Italian Milanesa. What separates it from the rest is the Panko Bread Crumbs that make it different. It wasn't greasy at all. Others offer Curry Sauce, but I usually don't get that. The Katsu Sauce is good, it have a zing to it. I also got Pink Lemonade and it seem like it doesn't look like Pink Lemonade, but that's OK. Maybe it's better that way.
