I don't know if this is as good as it gets because I have never been to England, but I really like the food. I took my Dad here for Father's Day lunch and really enjoyed our meal. The iced tea was fresh and my cornish pastie was really delicious. I wish I had one now. My Dad's steak and mushroom pie looked really good too. Also, the prices were decent.

Umami always delivers when I am hankering for some solid food. My go to dishes are usually the pork burns along with the chicken and shrimp dumplings. I feel the pork buns are some of the best in town. The fattyness of the pork offset by the sliced cucumbers and hoisin sauce make it incredibly addicting. This time, my girlfriend and I also went with the tuna poke. Served with some variation of a chip, the tuna was fresh and evenly sauced with soy and sesame oil. While I still feel the pork buns ruled the night, the poke was a nice change of pace. Umami also is one of the few places that serves up Hitachino beer (little owl) so that is always a plus.

Where to begin, well the host was very friendly and sat us a booth in the bar. Our server took a while to come over to us even though there weren't hardly any people there. My dad had applied for some Red Robin's club card and he was to get a free appetizer for applying for it. They had issues getting his confirmation code to work though and instead of being helpful- like just giving the free appetizer- they said they couldn't do anything to help us and gave my dad some RR card help line to call, even though by then it was closed.. They did not offer us the appetizer and weren't very helpful. Then we ordered drinks which took a while and then we finally got to order dinner. The dinner came out and I had a smaller burger but it still came with bottomless fries. Me, being the fry-lover that I am ate all of my (smaller portion) of fries. I asked for more. We waited for 20 mins and still no fries. I eventually had the server cancel the extra order (since they were to be bottomless) and got the check. It was poor service on their part. The server did apologize after I asked for the check. He ignored us for the most part though, which made me mad since it wasn't busy in the bar area at all. All in all, I like the Applebee's across the street from this location more and will take my business there next time.

Crowded...jammed....packed...? Must have been in the good ole days. Went on a Saturday at 12:45 and the place was 25% full. Well, maybe that because the corporate recipe chef left out spices, herbs, butter, flavor buds, real food, salt and pepper, etc. In nother words - no flavor folks! Gave em a 2 since they serve Coke instead of Pepsi. The cookie gal walked right by us...that almost got them a 1, but I figured the cookies were probably bland, too.
