About Umami Auburn
Located in Auburn's Bent Creek shopping center, Umami Auburn has become one of the city's most beloved restaurants. With 361 reviews averaging 4.4 stars — and guests who return 30+ times — this Japanese and Korean-inspired spot has clearly earned its place in Auburn's dining scene.
The menu is a sweeping tour of Japanese and Asian cuisine. Start with fresh Bluefin tuna sashimi or silky white tuna carpaccio, then move to creative specialty rolls — the signature Auburn Roll, the indulgent Bentcreek Roll topped with yellowtail and salmon, or the flame-seared Aburi sushi torched to perfection tableside. The noodle program is equally impressive: the seafood-packed Umami Champpon is mentioned in nearly every glowing review.
Vegetarian options and a kids' menu make it accessible to everyone. Special pricing runs Wednesday through Friday — premium sushi at accessible midweek prices. Whether it's a date night, anniversary, or everyday craving, Umami delivers consistently extraordinary food.

Genuinely one of my favorite restaurants in Auburn — I've enjoyed at least 30 meals here. All of their fish is incredibly fresh. The Bentcreek Roll is my favorite and their tuna in general is outstanding. The Umami Champpon red is packed with flavor. 10/10 — and they have deals Wednesday through Friday!
5 stars on every aspect — food, service, ambiance, freshness. I always take too long to decide because every time I go I want to try something new but also re-order what I loved before. Their menu always keeps you coming back. This is my husband's and my favorite place to celebrate special occasions.
The Jamppong had the perfect level of spice — rich, deep broth with a depth of umami that truly lives up to the name. Portion sizes are generous and the presentation is beautiful. Seafood tender, noodles perfect. The Cheese Pork Cutlet was delightful. Cozy atmosphere, attentive staff. I left with a smile and I'm already planning my next visit.
