Mouthwatering food (trust me on this! Too good!)Nice ambiencePrice is on the higher side, so cannot visit every now and then :(The waiter was very friendly. He offered complimentary miso soup 😄Overall great experience! Recommended

If you want to have authentic Japanese cuisines experience, you can visit this place in Gulshan. Theyve been in business for 7 years but this was my first experience. I loved the decor, & the staff were friendly.

Good food with great service. Nice and cozy place for a dinner. I found the interior very soothing with calming music & water sounds from the fountain. Like it and would recommend.

Absolutely loved their Sushi.The pricing of the food was fare. The staffs were good and efficient. Loved the ambiance and the decor of the restaurant.

I went there watching a vlog of Petuk Couple. The food was average but Ebi Mayo, Orange Juice & Coconut ice cream was just awesome. And I tried Ramen for the first time and it was good though. But I had Sushi that Chinese is better than Japanese because I think Sushi & Ramen are bothers 😀I rate this #Umai 7/10

Cozy place for friends and family with good location. Although parking remains an issue but somehow manageable. On the contrary staffs are polite , courteous and helpful. At the entrance water fountain and soothing sound certainly one would like. Must appreciate the highest level of cleanliness which seldom I observed in other restaurant. Food taste is moderate and not very sure which one to recommend. May be bit pricey but location, standard and maintenance may demand so.

A very good restaurant in the diplomatic zone. They have continental Japanese food as well. Environment is safe and aristocratic. I recommend my friens to come here.

Nice place to hangout with great food and ambience.

Overpriced but the food is great.

Most of the items are good. However, the ambience is lacking a bit, for a fine dining place.

Umai a Japanese RestaurantI would have given them one more star if the price was reasonable. The taste of the food is amazing but the overall price is way too high. They provide complimentary welcome drinks. Dont have parking area and wheelchair accessible entrance. But will definitely recommend this place if you want to pay a good price for you food.

Great a place. Food is very good. Service is good. Nice decorations. No parking available. Must park on No-parking road. Only downside is cost, highly overpriced.

Food was kinda okay

I love the ambience and the food is really good . I love their lavish bento

Very good japanese food served here. Also the ambience is cool too.

Quite & calm place to enjoy Japanese foods. Bit expensive though compared to the taste of the food. However, I liked the interior decoration of the restaurant.

The place is very cozy. The ambience is nice. The service is way better than other similar restaurants. The major disadvantage is its lack of parking space. Therefore, it is difficult for the self-drive diners. The menu is more or less fine, though a bit of Bangladeshi influence is visible in some of the dishes. I liked Sashimi.

Way to expensive. Food taste is okay i guess, but definitely not something that will make you wow.

This is my second time going to UMAI . The first time was a good experience however this second time was quite different . The food was okay. The Salmon Carpaccio was fantastic . The sushi rolls could be better but it wasn’t bad . The entree’s were good too.. My husband and I liked ours can’t really vouch for the others.Our dinner however was ruined by awful music . It was around 10:30 when a Happy Birthday song comes on the sound system on repeat followed by random nursery rhymes and it goes on for a while .After a while, we repeatedly asked them to stop playing the songs but they didn’t . I eventually got up to go to talk to the waiter and He says sorry I cannot ask them to turn it off , they are the owners and they are very powerful Gulshan club members . I m like what? Who cares ? This is a restaurant with paying customers, why does it matter ? He is like toh ki? Apnara chara aar kono group nai. How rude . We are still paying customers aren’t we ?After a good 30 mins, their activities that required these songs were done and random Japanese music began to play again. The waiter then made it a point to come to my father and say dekhen gaan change kore disi as if they did it just because we asked them too. Anyways, it was an highly unusual experience which I really didn’t expect from a place like UMAI .

Umai Restaurant is a good quality restaurant. Meals are carefully prepared and served here. Its food prices are also kept at a tolerable level.The restaurant is very popular with the locals. Many small events are usually held here. Good place for small group hang out .good food. Service can be a bit better.

Great place cozy and nice

Great Place and Yummy Food. Highly recommended for the Sushi lovers!

Umai has some pretty good appetizers and quantity is also generous, but the Mains and sushi is not the best, it was quite bland and dull tasting

Incredible place for Japanese food. Dont suggest to all except for the people who like chinese or Japanese food.

Surprisingly good food and we loved their food, service and ambience. Food price are way high compared to Dhaka’s standard. But still I loved to visit them.

Undoubtedly the best Japanese cuisine in Dhaka! Amazing service, good ambiance and good food!

Great meals with polite staffs in clean restaurant. As Japanese, I enjoyed having foods here. Meal portions are slightly more than expected, but worth the price.

Expensive food but testy.

Pleasant enough. The food was tasty and well presented but it was a busy evening and the service slow.

Very good and tasty food. My favorites are the Omelette rice and chicken teriyaki. Would highly recommend

Soothing place to have romantic dinner. Their coconut ice cream is top notch

Good Japanese contemporary Food. Must try snow fish fillets

Good food with great service.

Highly recommend, restaurant was clean and food was really good. But its very expensive.

Its a great place for othentic Japanese food and for hang out.

Fantastic food, delivered on time and consistent

Foods are amazing with top notch service and ambience! No doubt this is the best Japanese fine dine in Dhaka.

My favourite place when it comes to bento box. the price are quite pricey but still satisfied bcoz of the taste. Haha

The best place you can go to for Authentic Japanese cuisine.

This is a Japanese restaurant which is quite good and affordable. Service is good.

So goooood

Good place

Amazing place for sushi

Went there few times to have dinner. Food quality were excellent, very tasty food! Very reasonable prices.

Bad restaurant, late preparation order

Excellent

Excellent food and services

Wonderful delicious food. Very professional people running this Japanese restaurant. Service was excellent!

Ive gone hear several times, and food the fantastic and so is the ambiance and aesthetic of the place. Its a very nice place and the sushi that they serve is a wide range variety of flavours. They serve more than just that and its all good. I greatly recommend a visit here.

Lovely food & atmosphere.

Ok, if you want to have some authentic Japanese food in Dhaka, Umai is preferred than others. Price is reasonable in context of their quality and service. Good place for having dinner in a quiet and comfortable environment.

Good place for sushi lovers.

Unbelievable test

I order the beef Ramen but it doesn’t taste like ramen at all .

Probably my third favourite place in terms of sushi. Service was great. The other dishes were pleasant as well. I highly recommend the steak. I asked for medium rare. It was cooked to perfection.

Location is decent. The ambience of the place is very nice! Staff was very nice and helpful. Food is awesome. Definitely one of the top picks for Japanese cuisine in Dhaka.

Just stopped by for a quick lunch here. It was my first time. I really liked the decor. It wasnt too busy and the staffs seem very attentive. Love their welcome drink & the complementary soup. The food quality is very good, excellent choice of great Japanese selection. Not too expensive, but not cheap.

Awesome food

Very bad service. Place is dirty. Food is very expensive. Taste was normal.

This place is good and I have changed my thought about Japanese foods and its good.

One of the Best Restaurant of sea Food. But expensive

If you like authentic Japanese cuisine then this place is okay for you. I didnt like it as I dont enjoy Japanese cuisine much. This place is damn expensive

Wow!!!Thats a great food factory&Fish biting, freshness & higine

Super everytime.

Best place for Japanese food in Dhaka. My favorite is Tofu. Coconut ice cream tastes very good.

Food was awesome. Loved it.

It was a restaurant with good food taste and clean and cozy.

The taste of the food is awesome. Real Japanese taste.

Great service, great place, good food. Nice ambience for dates.

I love their ambiance, food is good too

Good food, good ambience, good service. A bit expensive though, but the experience makes up for that

It would be 5 stars but, it is truly over over over pricey. You can get this quality and type of sushi within half of it’s price. Single plater for about 14 items is 2800 ( 2200 with 600 taka vat and service charges!!!) taka. Their place is not premium according to price range. Washroom is not neat and clean. Should avoid if you can! Krua thai is more better place than this place.

Tasty food

Japanese fresh food & Fresh Fish are here.

The ambience is classy and beautiful. But the seats may feel a little congested. The food is really good. They probably has the best sushi in town. This (2018) ramadan is the first time I have tried their food. The ramadan platter was filling and the quality was well maintained. The prices may seem a little steep but the quality of food, service and ambience appropriate for it.

Great ambience and tasty authentic Japanese Cuisine!

A bit pricey, but good food

Way to expensive for the taste! Sashimi in bento box was horrible. Worst shashimi ever! These guys are charging like hell and they are giving such low quality food! Shame on them. Also their special maki roll was so dull! Dullest maki ever! Please avoid they dont deserve your hard earned money!

The best Japanese restaurant of the town. Better than many International Japanese International outlets.

Alhamdulillah it was a fantastic experience. The service was excellent and the food was outstanding.

Amazing fine dining place in Gulshan. Place is quite posh and touch expensive. Would love to visit again!

Excellent food but many mosquitos

Good food, nice ambiance, reasonable price

Sushi was ok. Edamame was soggy. Spicy tuna maki roll sucked.

Went for iftar. The ambience was very soothing and pleasant. The iftar bento box included sushi, rice, beef and fish fry. Everything was delicious. Really enjoyed having a nice healthy iftar in a pleasant place

Great food but not spacious and great ambiance.

Best place in Dhaka for Japanese food. I liked it especially the vegetarian options

Best sushi in the town

They have nice environment and quality foods. Japanese cuisine is their speciality and they live upto it. parking is a problem though.

Yeh good food, maintain quality but costly

Love the food, the service and the ambience!

Excellent Japanese restaurant in Dhaka. This restaurant offers a good food, but the pricing is more on the premium side of things.

Went there once and was really impressed. Though I dont like sushi my friends say the sushi over there is amazing.

Some interesting items and good ambience draw us to this place time and time again

They provide authentic japanese dishes here which are really tasty if you are into japanese food like sushi. Their decoration is very beautiful and their service is top-class. The place is upscale and not very busy, rather very calming with soothing music and sound of waterflow behind the place of seating. They maintain Hygiene a lot. Loved this place but Im not very used to the smell of nori yet so had hard time eating the maki rolls. Other than that, their rice dishes, nigiri, sashimi and desserts were fabulous. Really recommended if you have a good budget to eat japanese food with your family or loved ones.

Great place for Japanese food.Good Quantity and quality.They have a wide selection.

Really awesome sushi place. Great ambiance and a fantastic menu.

A well known good quality maintained Japanese restaurant

Towns one of best janees food they serve...

Delicious Japanese food and beautiful set up.
