Umaya - Washington

Great service. Not very busy. Good vegan options. I was really hungry so I got the beef yakisoba AND the short ribs. The yakisoba steamy, flavorful, and filling. It came on a huge plate and I added extra bok choy although I didn’t need to cause it already comes with a good amount). It came out piping hot which I loved. A healthy portion of vegetables and the sauce is delicious. After ordering my friend who is vegan decided to get the vegetable yakisoba. We found out that normally the sauce for the dish is made with chicken stock but my letting the chef know his dietary restrictions they were able to substitute for a plum sauce making the dish completely vegan. The short ribs were also very delicious. They came with a side of kimchi. The ribs were Japanese style so super chewy with that great umami flavor. Two negative thing ms about the visit was there was a lot of kids and babies crying during our visit. As well as a slightly funny smell in the restaurant. I would definitely go back despite those slight issues. Ps the lamb chop looked scrumptious. If you’re thinking about it. DO IT!

Food was delicious! Portions were reasonable and I loved the soft pork in the tonkotsu ramen and crispy chicken in the katsu curry!

Lunch was excellent Delicious ramen, noodles and roll. Service was good. Good food

I feel that this restaurant still has a lot of room for improvement.

The food was great. Well prepared, tasteful, and fresh.. We did a tastings of appetizers and small plates then had to take the large plate hone. The server was most excellent with his service as well as answering questions.We want to plan on coming back with a group of friends so we can taste more on the menu. Wonderful evening.
