Umami Pittsburgh Reviews from The Last Year
HIDDEN gem in Lawrenceville, serving fresh sushi and
HIDDEN gem in Lawrenceville, serving fresh sushi and Japanese inspired cuisine. but literally, this place is so difficult to find. It is on the corner of the street, on the second or third floor of the building, with no visible signage or directions. The restaurant sign is not in English. Inside, the accessibility is a challenge and all the tables are high tops. Once you find the restaurant, it is lively, decorated well and has an open kitchen concept! They really transport you to a Japanese style Izakaya with bright red lanterns lining the side of the walls and colorful artwork. The food is expensive!! And the quality is great. I ordered raw salmon, fatty tuna and sea bream! I was disappointed to find fish scales in my sashimi, given the high ratings and price of the food. You can order sushi by the piece, sashimi or hand roll! There are fun bbq skewers to order, hot apps, noodles and rice bowls too! The service was okay! Loud, bustling environment. Could not hear the waitress at times, esp when she was explaining the specials. Food took a hot minute to come out. Parking is difficult on a narrow street. Willing to come back for the vibes!! tldr food 3.75/5 service 4/4 ambiance 4/5

My husband and I wen5here for dinner this weekend and we were blown away! It's a small restaurant with a nice sized bar and has a dark and hip Asian vibe. When we arrived, our table wasn't yet ready, but the host promptly took our cocktail order while we waited at the bar. We ended up eating at the sushi bar, which was fun to watch them make everything. We had a mezcal cucumber cocktail which was delicious. For dinner, we shared the pancake, beef and pork belly robatayaki, and Grand Chiriashi (which is an amazing selection of raw fish over rice). It was delicious. The service was fast and excellent. We will definitely come back. It was an all around fantastic experience!
Wow, everything tasted great.
And I was able to accommodate vegetarian in the group well the rest of us really enjoyed the pork and chicken and beef and seafood options.

We had a fantastic dinner and it was more than I had hoped! We tired something off each section of the menu except the sushi! We had to leave something to come back for. The udon was one of the best things I've ever tasted!

We went during our girl's weekend to Pittsburgh aka "the Paris of the Appalachia". Our server Phillip was delightful. Our favorites were the Hamachi Kama (yellow tuna "cheek" special), karaage (fried chicken), and okonomiyaki (savory pancake). Drinks were delicious. It felt like we were entering a speakeasy. There is not a sign that we could find. Memorable time!!!

Every bite I had at Umami was delicious, from the takoyaki to the chirashi, we were so thrilled with everything we ordered. It was all so well prepared and the restaurant's dark and cool atmosphere just adds to the overall experience. I hope for the opportunity to go back soon!

Umami is hands down one of the freshest sushi spots along with some great street food as well as other items that always are top notch. Service has always been great and I LOVE the ambiance with the red tone always glowing!
I've been back to this place several times since my initial
I've been back to this place several times since my initial review, and I am sad to say that it's been a slow decline. Each time, the service, food, and experience have been a little less great and at this point, its a mediocre experience at best. I went with a group of friends, most of which had dined there before. We were all unimpressed. We were seated promptly in the hole in the floor. This room seemed a little dingy honestly, and the table in the hole was sized far too small for the concept and our group of 6. It was a constant shuffle to make room for plates and we all felt too far away. Word to the wise as well - this table is not bolted to the floor, so don't lean on it getting up or down unless you want to be wearing all of its contents. Our service was lacking pretty much all the way around. He seemed, shall we say...disconnected. There wasn't any rhyme or reason to how the food and drinks came out and he definitely served food that was clearly not cooked right (burnt and bitter gyoza and a practically raw bacon skewer). Again, none of us were really that impressed. The sashimi was ok, but nothing to return for.
One of my favorite restaurants in Pittsburgh.
The ambiance and decor is fantastic. Food is well priced, well portioned, and delicious. I particularly enjoyed the Yakitori, Ramen, and Karaage. They have great drinks as well. You cannot go wrong with Umami and if you are between two different restaurants for a night out, choose Umami.
Super neat experience.
The sushi/sashimi options are fresh as heck, and the daily specials are unique and worth the adventure. The ramen and the yaki udon were wonderful staples as a safe bet if you don't know what else to get. Kind of small restaurant, but sitting at the kitchen bar is a super enjoyable experience in my opinion-- kind staff was mindful of a sesame allergy, attentive to detail as well. So worth the stop in such a unique place.

excellent service the menu was inviting tried a variety of the skewers and gyozas and nothing disapppointes. wonderful vibe with a live dj even better drinks

This place is worth the hype!! We tried to go and the wait was long so we made reservations for the next weekend and it was phenomenal. The vibe and environment was super fun kind of like a speakeasy restaurant bar. If you're a martini fan, The umami martini was YUM I loved it. All the food was so good we can't wait to go back. The skewers are a good app. Definitely try the chawanmushi as an app to share. The udon noodles were really tasty and a good portion too!!
Loved this place! The sushi is really fresh and so amazing.
Ordering is pretty much a La carte (nigiri, sashimi, hand rolls). I tried the spicy scallop hand roll, yellowtail hand roll, salmon nigiri, and pork belly skewer. Everything was so delicious! The service was great and it the ambiance was nice inside! They had a dj playing. There was a also a small room where the tables are low to the ground and you sit on the floor (which is where we were seated) and it made for a great experience.

Wow... incredible service, awesome atmosphere and a great menu with nice variety. Super impressed. Their four top separate seating was especially nice. Can't say enough good things about Umami.
One of my favorite restaurants in Pittsburgh! Been here
One of my favorite restaurants in Pittsburgh! Been here several times and have left very full and happy every single time. Ambiance (especially at night, when they turn the red lights on) makes it feel like a trendy Japanese bar, and they always play great music. Service is exceptional -- servers are always very friendly and knowledgeable about the menu. They change up the menu pretty often to honor what's seasonal, so it's never a bad time to go back. My go-tos are any of the skewers and handrolls. The skewers are a must try -- the meat is always very flavorful and juicy. Their sushi is always fresh. Their cocktails are also fantastic (the ones I've tried are on the sweeter side, which is ideal for me because I love my drinks sweeter) and have very unique Japanese-inspired flavors. Definitely recommend making a reservation for this place because it gets really packed!
the food was beyond amazing - very good ode to Japanese
the food was beyond amazing - very good ode to Japanese cuisine. we sat at the bar and service was fairly attentive. the bartender was knowledgable about specials and drinks. the wine selection is very very small but i don't consider that a fault here. sake and whiskey list was impressive. ambiance was an 11/10. live dj, tasteful (real) neon lights, lots of wood, some Japanese-like decor. we had the okonomiyaki, gyudon, blue fin tuna, shoyu ramen, and the wagyu beef robatayaki.

Agreed. Ultimately not addressing this month after month is clearly resulting in a drop in certain venue’s rankings & sales.

Need to cancel a bid, not getting a response… how do I do it? |
Click on "Take off the Market Option" in your portfolio
Working on your bid? |
Your bid has been “matched” with a reservation. From the time a reservation has been located, the seller of the reservation must connect with moderator to give transfer information for reservation. If the seller;however, does NOT respond to reservation transfer, then your bid is reprocessed and returns to the first step, which is connecting your request to a reservation.
Process after bid is accepted. |
Hey @EvocativeFold67, welcome to appointmenttrader! Once the reservation is in your portfolio, you definitely own the timeslot, the review team would not have approved the trade if the reservation wasn't confirmed - so you are going :-) Judging from your post you bid today and are going tomorrow - don't worry as long as you initiated the name transfer, you are good - the transfer service has to work with the opening hours of the reservation team of the respective venue. You will likely see the transfer confirmation a couple hours before your reservation time.
Where do the Reservations on AppointmentTrader come from? |
Mostly from people who don't need their reservations or appointments any longer. AT has no relationship with places listed and acts as a platform connecting buyers and sellers making sure that listed reservations are real and that privacy is not compromised when transacting.
What happens if my bid expires unanswered? |
Hey @FluffyStar64, thanks for the question! When you place your bid the amount gets transferred in a deposit account, the second you either cancel your bid or a few minutes after the bid expires the funds are moved back into your main account from where you can refund it to your payment method or use for other transactions.
Any seller support?
Has anyone found a way to get a question answered? From what I can tell there is no way to get in touch with anyone that works at/for AT. Other than the occasional admin posting a consultation offer here and there they are non existent. A lot of people have the same issue I have where we cannot cash out earnings. I cannot get my warning medal removed even though I am under the threshold. Sad to say but seems like AT is holding up everyone’s funds currently. Very scary and makes me wonder….Please reply if you read this admins and can help. Tried every way possible to get in touch

I accepted a bid for a popular restaurant in Los Angeles only to receive a phone call shortly thereafter informing me that the reservation had been canceled due to it being listed on AT. I of course need to subsequently cancel the reservation on AT but get this warning that my status will be negatively affected for doing so. I've reached out to customer support about this several times with no response, not sure what to do in this station. Hoping someone can advise.

I have a prepaid reservation, but I'm allowed to transfer that reservation to others for a price that I set (up to the total price I paid).
For selling POSTPAID reservations, do I charge the buyer the full amount of the reservation when transferring? And then the buyer pays something on top of that (which is what is listed in the AppointmentTrader listing?)
Major Issue for Seller
My money is being held hostage! Can you please remove my refund medal as I am below the 11% threshold and should be able to withdraw my full daily amount now? I have been teying for a long time to get a reply on this. Major issue for people looking to do good/right like you ask and make positive sales. Being able to access earned revenue is critical and not getting any reply is very concerning for your sellers. Lot of other people having the same issue. Once below the threshold you should auto remove the warning medals.

Give the best answerWell through rate holding money for 180 days
Just wanted to put this out there as I find it quite weird. AT will hold money if your sell through rate is to low. I find this strange as you would think that sell through rate should reflect more on AT not marketing their site well enough to generate sales. It seems weird to punish sellers for listings not selling.

Banned from Resy for selling reservations- Do we have a rat on our hands???
I am new to this app and started off by selling a polo bar reservation and then quickly sold one more reservation. Not long after I received emails from Resy saying all my reservations are cancelled and I am being banned from Resy for life. How could this have possibly happened without a rat telling Resy that I sold the reservation. I need some advice on this situation and let’s catch the rat!
