Umami - Trattoria Giapponese In Roma

What a discovery this Japanese restaurant is: a little pearl of the cuisine of the rising sun, nestled among the buildings of a popular Roman neighborhood. Refined and delicious raw materials, the original sake, as well as the kindness and preparation of the staff, accompanied us on a small gastronomic tour of Japanese cuisine. State-of-the-art Ramen, homemade Gyoza, Uramaki, skewers of the highly prized Wagyu meat and finally the delicious Cotton-Cake gave us a very tasty evening which will see us forced to return as soon as possible to taste the rest of the menu. If you are looking for something different and original, you can't miss trying this little place. The open kitchen, in addition to being a guarantee of cleanliness and quality, will allow you to appreciate the workers in preparing the dishes. Reservation is recommended.

We have been to this restaurant several times, this last time was disappointing: the food is always good but the portions are decidedly smaller, especially uramaki and nigiri. We also took two glasses of wine poured by a waitress (corresponding to a finger) while at the next table, served by the sommelier, they were double ours. Excessive price for small portions.

I had dinner here with the family. A truly characteristic and evocative place. We appreciated the food and the friendly service even if it was a little slow at times. I'll be back...

The place, the area and the waiters are very kind and friendly. A little something to say about the food. The renkon chips a little too thin to taste. The chicken karaage bun was very good, perhaps a little too simple in the ingredients. Zaru Soba insufficient. The soba should be brought separately for a better result of the dish, cold and not lukewarm. Overall enjoyable, but there is room for improvement.

This place left us speechless, I think that's enough as a review

Small and welcoming place, the food is delicious, you can feel and see that behind it there is a real work of research and knowledge of Japanese food. Delicious gyoza, I propose a photo of a dish of the day based on wagyu., even the dessert of the day was delicious ice cream with strawberries tofu and salted caramel sauce (at the beginning I was skeptical of this dish but I was really happy to have it tried). A plus for the tuna nigiri! Some may find the prices a little high but when you eat well you are happy to spend a little more and taste dishes made with passion and love!! Congratulations to the owner for bringing a restaurant like this to the Tuscan area. Congratulations obviously also to those who work with him. My only regret?? Not having a big enough stomach to taste everything when I go there.

Provato per caso, siamo usciti entusiasti. Posto davvero accogliente che richiama l'atmosfera nipponica. Personale gentile e disponibile. Grazie al fatto che abbiamo cenato al bancone, ci siamo resi conto di quanto sia pulita ed in ordine la cucina (a vista proprio davanti a noi). Ottimi prodotti, delicati e ben confezionati. Prezzo giusto per la qualità del cibo proposto: 2 calici di vino, 1 nigiri sake, 2 uramaki e 1 osomaki a 50 euro. Torneremo

Clean and quiet environment, we were welcomed immediately even without a reservation and we were not rushed, the fairly high cost of the courses is repaid by the quality of the same and by the service of qualified and kind staff. Highly recommended

Without infamy and without praise. Good food but suitable for those who want an "Italian" twist. The fish ramen is interesting, but the raw one is decidedly less so. Very nice atmosphere, service a little slow

Per la festa della mamma decidiamo di concederci una cena in questo ristorante che si presenta come una tipica trattoria giapponese. L'ambientazione è molto caratteristica e mi dicono ispirata bene all'originale. Il sushi che abbiamo provato era buono e ben preparato, sicuramente torneremo per provare gli altri piatti di un menù fatto di piatti che non sempre si trovano negli altri ristoranti
