Umami Asian Cuisine

I always eat at Umami whenever I’m in the neighborhood! The restaurant is clean and spacious and the service is wonderful; I feel like family when I’m here. A definite must order is their spicy garlic chicken wings. They have a wonderful crunch and the meat is tender and juicy. The sauce is thick, full of flavor, and perfect over rice.

I like how peaceful it is here. Just when I want to eat in a quiet sanctuary I come here. The lady at the cash register is so nice and peaceful. Am I in heaven?

Hidden Gem in Mukilteo. Spicy seafood noodle soup is really delicious.

We love this place! We would have starved if not for this when when we first moved into the neighborhood and hadn’t unpacked the kitchen yet… Ate here practically everyday! Now we’re settled and down to a «reasonable» once a week. Our faves are the jjajangmyun, jjambbong, and ggangpoonggi.

I just recently moved to Bella Terra and was excited about having restaurant options so close to home. Decided to try their Chicken Katsu meal and proceeded to get 8 TINY pieces of chicken under an enormous pile of sautéed onions. 75% of my meal consisted of onions, I couldn’t even see the chicken in the takeout dish until I went digging though the onion mess. The sauce was strangely chipotle tasting and they gave no side sauces for rice so I had a pile of white rice with chipotle sauce. Needless to say I’ll be going across the street to the Thai place next time where the portions are appropriate.

Best sweet n sour chicken ever. So crisp and fresh. Noodles were delicious even with my stuffy nose. I’m only going to eat my jja jang myun and chicken here now!

I definitely recommend coming here for teriyaki! They serve reasonable portions for a great price! The food is tasty I would say slightly above average for your typical teriyaki restaurant. The interior of the restaurant includes a TV that will play sporting events and popular TV shows which is nice. They also serve beer for very reasonable prices which I look forward to trying next time I go there, which I definitely will!

My children always the best reviews when it comes to restaurant because they tried it first and I got sold. This place is awesome and food is great. I ordered the chicken wings and were delicious. I recommended.

The food was decent, but the price was good. Probably wouldn’t come again unless menu is improved and food tastes better. Wasn’t a fan of the Egg noodle Ramen, it was okay I guess

Love the ramen, and rare to see sports playing in an Asian restaurant. They know
How to cater to the demographic, which is smart. And they almost always have Hong Kong milk tea made in a big pot. Yum.

This place is tucked away in an apartment complex area but it is quite a find. In addition to the typical Japanese teriyaki dishes that most similar restaurants have in the area, they offer Chinese-​Korean dishes which sets this place apart. Everything is very reasonably priced and well portioned. I tried two specialty items from the black board menu at the register, the jambong or spicy seafood noodle soup and the tangsuyuk or the sweet and sour pork. First the noodle soup had a good depth of flavor while remaining light, noodles with the perfect amount of firmness and chew. The variety of seafood included made it a great value too. The sweet and sour pork is not the typical fast food Chinese version. It had nicely cut vegetables, a lighter sauce, and a pleasant crunchy texture. The service was also fast and friendly.
I would recommend this place for those looking to try unique food in the area and the noodle soup especially on a rainy PNW day.

I can’t believe I never knew about this little ramen gem until now! It’s hidden off the beaten path in a mini business complex connected to apartments.
The good:
Tonkatsu Ramen and Beef Ramen come in large portion sizes. Pretty much what you expect out of ramen, nothing too fancy.
Spicy Seafood Soup with homemade noodles: DELICIOUS! The homemade noodles is worth coming back for! It was on special that day. They taste fresh and balance the semi spicy soup that also comes in a large bowl.
Portion sizes– we got 3 bowls of soup for 5 people
The customer service– the lady working there was so nice and she gave us free tea (usually $ 1 per cup) and said happy New Years! She checked in on us too.
If you want water there is a water station and plastic cups. If you want anything else it’s in the fridges when you walk in the door.
The only bad is the location is not close too much but if you’re in the Mukilteo, South Everett area and are craving ramen I recommend this place!

I’ve been to this local place several times on the merit of one dish, the spicy seafood noodle soup. It’s a jumbo serving of piquant soup loaded with noodles (that are very similar to linguini), onions, a little julienned zucchini, a few shrimp, one mussel, and a little octopus. There is a bit of oil in the soup, too, and the broth is rich and flavorful. I’ve ordered it three times, twice to dine in and once to take out. It has been consistently good. The seafood in the soup seems there mainly for flavor. The soup is hearty from the broth and noodles — there’s not much protein.
The restaurant is run by a nice Asian couple and it’s a cafeteria style place. You select cold drinks (including beer and sake) from their large coolers on the wall on the left as you walk in. Orders and payment are taken from the counter and the waitress brings your food to the table. There have never been more than two other tables full when I’ve been there and the wait for my soup has been less than 10 minutes.
As I said, I’ve only had their spicy seafood noodle soup (with a cold Asahi) and I’ll keep going just for that dish.

Went here for lunch for a work colleague’s birthday. It’s across the street from our usual Thai lunch spot and we’d seen it several times but never gone in. I’m glad we did today.
It’s a fantastic lunch place that is a great bargain. The portion sizes are ginormous for the price. Most menu items hover around $ 8 and completely fill the plate with salad, your entrée, and white or brown rice (brown rice is an extra $ 0.50). It will probably be a smaller dinner tonight because of all the food I ate here for lunch!
I got the kung pao chicken and it was spicy and flavorful. Blown away? Nah. Yummy and worth ordering again? Absolutely.
The chicken breast wasn’t too fatty (which is generally something to look for in cheaper Asian food). The vegetable to meat ratio was a bit too much in favor of the veggies, but that’s not a deal breaker.
My co-​worker ordered the Mongolian beef and she said the pieces of beef were hit-​and-​miss. She noted that some pieces were overly chewy, but said it was overall a good dish.
You can even bring your friends who don’t like Asian food (Although, let’s be honest, those aren’t friends worth keeping since they preclude you from eating some of the best food in the Seattle metropolitan area)! After all the traditional Asian dishes, corn dogs and fries is an additional item at the end of the menu (handwritten! which, for some reason, make that option’s existence that much more charming).
I’m hoping we make this one of the regular spots for lunch in the future.

The food here was terrible. Obviously frozen food that was thrown into a deep fryer.
The service was very nice.
