Food Review: Umami Sushi Lounge & Grill Fusion

After all of the great reviews online, I had high expectations. First mistake. In a nutshell: Nice environment, bad sushi. Here’s the rundown:
-$2 house salad: This was delicious, one of the best house salads in any Japanese place around central AR. Great, fresh ginger dressing with more veggies than just iceberg lettuce.

-Big Daddy Roll- $12. 6 pieces. Are you kidding? This one is deep fried, so it was pretty good. However, there was too much rice and not enough flavor.
-Key West Roll- $11. 6 pieces again. You’re killing me! This one is what I was most excited about. Wrapped in soy paper, has lots of veggies, including jalapenos…I was expecting tons of flavor and a kick of spice. I got nothing. Very bland, too much rice. Are you seeing a pattern?

At that point, I stopped ordering before I had to take out a second mortgage. Won’t be back.  GO TO KIYEN’S IN WLR. This place has the best sushi I have ever had, from CA to AR, it can’t be beat.

But let your mouth be the judge and let us know what you think in the comments.
