6 Reviews on “Umami Japanese Cuisine”
It is one of the best Asian Fusion restaurants in the town.
Parking – limited on the front of the restaurant , but plenty of free parking space available behind other restaurants and premier urology.
Ambiance – interior decor 5/5 , tables are smaller and somewhat congested ( will give feeling of nyc )
Staff – very helpful and courteous.
Drinks – there are plenty of drink options. Overall, i would rate their drinks 4/5 . My personal preferences are bahama mama , singapore sling and mai tai.
Food
Apetizers – my personal favorite is chicken gyoza . You can try hurricane prawns – they were whole prawn deep fried 4/5 .
Sushi rolls – there is a varied variety of sushi rolls and fusion options . Try out their signature rolls as per your meat/protein and palate choices. They also have some good vegetarian options , so you can definitely invite your vegetarian friends .
Hibachi – we tried out chicken hibachi and salmon hibachi , which were really good 4/5. They also have a veg option, too.
Udon/noodles – i haven’t tried it out yet , but based on my friends review, i would rate it as 4/5.
Golden mango shrimp – it is a unique dish with mango pieces and shrimp filled with flavors. It’s unique to your taste palate , a must try.
Fried rice – i tried out seafood fried rice 4/5 , they also have other options too based on your choice of protein.
Overall, it’s a good place , probably the best place in the town to try asian food , Next place will be in NYC .
Please try out their vegetarian sushi rolls and vegetarian options , I haven’t tried it out , but I would love to.

We’ve been here twice more since my last update, so suffice it to say, Tomo is now our go-to sushi spot. The quality of fish is nearly the best we’ve had outside of the city and cocktails are well-made. Because their pricing is comparable/slightly higher than other local places but for better quality fish, it’s hard to justify going elsewhere. I can’t speak to their hot food or cooked dishes because we only get sushi or raw items. My only recommendation is that it is tricky to go on a Friday or Saturday without a reservation so either plan ahead or expect to wait. On one Friday night visit, my husband and I were able to be seated right away but when we went back on another busy Friday night with our son, the restaurant was already packed so they offered to seat us at the sushi bar to avoid a 30 to 40 minute wait. I wasn’t a fan of sitting at the sushi bar as a family because it made it harder for us to interact plus we had less space than we would at a regular table plus it was a busy walkway behind us for staff.

We’ve been here two more times and overall are really pleased with the quality of the fish. It’s one of the best local places we found in the area. The fish, particularly the Nigiri, is excellent quality. It’s nice to see offerings of high-quality options such as sea urchin and fatty tuna. I’ve dined at Michelin star sushi restaurants in Manhattan and am a sushi snob about local places but really love Tomo.
We’ve been wanting to try this place and finally stopped in for lunch last Saturday. Overall we had a really great visit. The restaurant itself is elegant and the service was attentive. We enjoyed the food and the sushi quality was better than what we typically find at most neighborhood places. Presentation was very good although I wasn’t personally a fan of the fish carcass on my sashimi platter. I do wish the fish temp was closer to room temp than cold, hence the deduction of a star. I’m curious to try their omakase but we’ll definitely visit again.

Had a quick bite here. The sushi is excellent, the fish is very fresh. I wish the rock shrimp had more sauce on it & the service was slow at times. Overall, I would still give this place another try!
Very posh micro community it sits in. Sushi was pretty decent and sushi price was good. Very nice decor inside, well lit too. Unfortunately, my server (not likely all of them) was terrible, we had to ask other servers for literally everything as our server never stopped by to check on us.
I brought my family here to enjoy a freshly made Asian dish. The staff were very attentive and friendly. I loved the atmosphere it was quite the experience. This restaurant is very clean and well maintained. My kids enjoyed it and so did I.
