Umu Japanese Restaurant Manila reviews

It's good Japanese food, but it is not great. Large portions, especially rice bowls, are expensive. The food was served late, sometimes more than 40 minutes late. The restaurant is spacious and has a classy atmosphere.

We recently dined at Umu to celebrate a birthday lunch for a member of the family. Service was quick, efficient and the servers were accomodating and attentive. Wanted to highlight Jeck Casimiro, who was assisting us througout the whole meal. He was friendly while maintaining...a good level of professionalism. We forogt our takout food on the way ... see more

They said that the restaurant was full, but we arrived at the venue to find plenty of vacant seats. The service was okay, but they were not as friendly and helpful as you would expect. The food was decent but not exceptional.

The food here is very good and the portion sizes are big considering this is a Japanese restaurant we should have ordered at least one dish less than we did. We visited in the first week of the new year and the restaurant was very...quiet and it lacked atmosphere as a consequence. The price for the meal was slightly expensive but as this is a Ja... see more

Delicious food Tuna sushi tasted delicious Yakimeshi was great Ebi tempura tasted good with the perfect amount of batter. Ambience is 5 and 5 and Cleanliness is 5 and 5 and Price: 1 500 per head

We walked in at opening time on a Sunday night with no reservations and were immediately seated Excellent decor and ambiance. Tasty set meals. Refreshing cocktails.

Umu Japanese Restaurant can be found in Dusit Hotel Makati. We were told that it was temporarily closed, but they will still serve food at The Pantry. The food is amazing especially the Dragon Maki Sarap Sarap Talaga.

It would have made a great dinner, except they forgot to order the chicken for a child who was allergic to seafood. This cost added insult to the expensive meal.

It was a great time spent with my schoolmates. Ambience and cleanliness check. Service check. Staff attentive. The garden was beautiful. Food was delicious.

Delicious food. The staff was great and very helpful.

Excellent customer service and food! Food was so delicious and the amount of food they give was so worth it! A MUST TRY WHEN YOU ARE IN PHILIPPINES!

One of the best Japanese restaurants in Metro Manila. Quality of ingredients are never compromised and taste has been consistently good. Superb service! Attendants are very attentive. Look for Irene and Dean for the best dining experience.

Good food. The place was very clean. The Ebi Tempura was delicious. The ratio of shrimp to batter was perfect. The Gyudon was a little bland, but it was still great. The portion of the vegetable udon soup was huge. Our bodies felt incredibly healthy after trying the soup.

Disappointed Food was slow to arrive. There were a few follow-ups. The USDA ribeye was dry, the soft shell crab was hard and lumpy and I didn't taste tempura moriawase. However the tempura sauce was very bland. I don't know how the Dusit Hotel management can accept this food quality.

The food was excellent! Sashimi and uni was fresh, sweet and melts in the mouth. The Wafu steak was amazing, fatty soft and tasty sauce. The unagi roll had generous cream cheese, and crunchy cucumber. The place was nice. Very quite. Very spacious and comfortable...seats too. The music was good too. I really enjoyed the place. Japan feels. Love th... see more

Wonderful food. Loved their dragon roll and wafu steak .. with the BDO amex discount, it was a great deal

Nice ambiance with lush garden but service could be speedier. Salmon tastes and tempura tastes good!
