KARAI RAMEN + HANDROLL REVIEWS
Patch our server was amazing and professional he seen me across the busy room hoping to ask for some mustard and he immediately came over. Food was very good large portions for the price I will def recommend to my coworkers. The music was incredibly loud though, it sounded like forever 21 in the mall.
Kids and I loved it! We had hot tea, sushi, ramen, & desserts (Matcha creme brulee?!) and it was all killer. Great service and atmosphere, and it didn't take long to get our meals at all.
We enjoyed everything for the most part. The ramen was very flavorful. The sushi was good. The shrimp tempura roll was a little bland for me, but the other roll was absolutely delicious. I can't remember the name of that one. (roll on the left) Service was exceptional.

UMI JAPANESE RESTAURANT REVIEWS
What a delightful find this little restaurant was! I was in town to see my daughter in college and we were both in the mood for sushi. Oddly, in the Springfield area, Asian restaurants close at 2pm and then open later for dinner. Umi was about 5 down on Yelp recommended that is even open through from lunch until dinner so we gave it a shot. I LOVED the cozy ambience with warm & welcoming dim lighting, which would be really great for a date night. My daughter and I wanted time to visit and the waitress was very polite and accommodating with our “slower” pace. We started with a sampling of small plates (gyoza, a sushi roll, and shrimp tempura). Then we both had hibachi for the main course. Of course dessert, which was delicious as well. Will make this a regular tradition when visiting Springfield.
Great Food and Great Service. Touchdown Roll, Spicy Crab Roll, Gyoza, and Crab Poppers. Any roll purchase comes with soup and salad so you can have a Great value meal as well. Neat Decor. Clean Bathrooms as well.
Being from out of town this restaurant wasn't to hard to find just driving around. Walking in the atmosphere is definitely inviting, cozy and comfortable. A great place for a family meal but equally as nice for a date night. We were welcomed right away and sat within 3 minutes. The server was very conversational and super nice.

OMO JAPANESE SOUL FOOD REVIEWS
I came here with a friend for lunch the other day, and it was really one of my first times having Japanese. When I got there, the staff was really friendly and accommodating. Our food was brought out in a very timely manner, and it was very delicious! I thought the serving size was excellent for the price- it’s a good bang for your buck. I would definitely come here again next time I’m craving some Japanese.
It's hard to choose what to eat when visiting OMO because everything the menu offers is tasty! This time around, we had the fried calamari and spring rolls to start. Then, we shared the three rolls pictured: crunchy roll, California roll, and ahi tuna roll. All delicious.
This was a Friday night first for us. The food was delicious and the staff were super friendly. We had the rab ragoons, California roll, spring rolls, Geisha roll, Tonkatsu Curry and the Fuji Mountain Chicken. We will return for another meal.
