Umu is one of the best Japanese restaurant in London. The quality of the fish is unmatched anywhere in the city. We opted to not do the tasting menu and order off the menu and everything was amazing. The service here could be improved. I found the service to be a bit brusque.
Went for lunch as couldn’t afford dinner so this is the lunch menu review at this fabulous Michelin-star restaurant.

So we got two bento boxes and a sushi platter of 10 assorted sushis for the three of us and it was plenty of food. Each bento box comes with a salad, a miso soup and a dessert i
Umu offers a rare gem: authentic Kyoto-style kaiseki. The elegant ambiance, flawless ingredients, and Michelin-star status elevated my dining journey to new heights. Umu is a true testament to the artistry of kaiseki, a culinary treasure that is hard to find outside of Japan. Umu created an enchanti
An outstanding Japanese food experience in London. We ate mostly the chef's sushi selection as a lunch set. The sushi was meticulously made to be perfect. The supporting dishes of a salad, soup, and the dessert were very esthetic and delicious as well. The bathrooms reminded me of Japan, they are ve
Very well done Japanese food. They have sushi and regular mains, but the tasting menu is where the action is.
Expect to spend at least 3 hours here. £300-400/person.
Cocktails are amazing.
What a magnificent experience. It is more than food, it is freshness, artistic expression of food and passion on precision! Strongly recommend to Sushi fans in London
Cosy yet modern, Umu is the pinnacle of Japanese dining in London. Service is understated, friendly and efficient and the breadth of the menu is as impressive as the attention to detail in the food. Particularly surprisingly for a Michelin starred restaurant in the west end, there are excellent vege
Actually, I was surprised with the quality of Kaiseki dinner. More authentic than expected as well as excellent taste and quality. Sake menus is also amazing. Sort of expensive, but strongly recommended.
We had a superb lunch at Umu, probably the best food we have eaten for a long while. Eating at Umu is a whole lot more than a meal it is an amazing experience. The service like the food was impeccable. We spent two and a half hours being so well looked after. Thank you.
Still one of the best one Michelin star Japanese Kaiseki restaurants in the World. Umu is a Kyoto influenced restaurant in Mayfair, London. Umu has for many years been known for the finest ingredients and we can vouch that Umu is still amazing. Highly recommended still and in our opinion still wo
We went there with my family and I was amazed about how nice and tasty the food was. The fish is fresh and prepared in front of your eyes. The service was exceptionnal and I understand well why they have been attributed a one star Michelin.
Great service and exceptional food quality.
We tried the Autumn Kaisekei Menu. The sashimi, soup and foie gras are my favorites. Dessert was fantastic, kids loved it.
Location is great and easy to find.
Visited the restaurant on October 12th, 2020 for the 12th year anniversary celebration with my wife.
Before making an appointment, I was bit hesitant because of a lot of bad or mediocre reviews on Google. However, it turned out to be the needless concern. Wish I could give 6 or 7 stars to this rest
