👍👍 Food is amazing. Service is second to none. Loved the decor. Sharing steak melts in your mouth. Dirty fries are amazing & no idea how they stay crispy. Charred greens are best veggies ever. Bao Bun (hot chicken) best new thing I’ve tried in ages. Pork dumplings also incredible. Can’t wait to return! People often mention staff, amazing, time, friendly, service, good,

    Devastated and disgusted Devastated that I'll never get to experience it for the first time again and disgusted that you can only give 5 stars. Food was beautiful, atmosphere was top class, service was exemplary. Staff were happy to give advice, were personable and very friendly. Each dish we got was just a perfect mix of flavors and quality ingredients. We will definitely be back as soon as we get another babysitter. Well done Umi, you are a credit to the City!

    Delicious tasty food! We ordered one each of the small plates to share and each one was very good ( a nice way to try a range of dishes) plus we ordered a side of the Korean dirty fries which were very good! Very friendly team with great service. First time to visit the restaurant and will definitely be back! We didn’t have any alcohol but the cocktail menu sounded good so will try them out next time. They served lots of chilled iced water with our meal. Highly recommended!

    Food, service and cocktails all outstanding. The smoked eel futomaki is up there with some of the best sushi I've ever had.

    We were recommended here, i had high expectations but they were just missing the mark. I got the vegan dumplings and I swear they were drowning in soy sauce where u couldn’t taste anything inside them and they were soggy from just sitting in sauce. I eat a lot of Asian food so I just wasn’t impressed, then got the vegan bao which was okay just dry. My boyfriend enjoyed his meals but got food poisoning from the oyster. I understand high prices for some things being locally sourced etc but it was near £8 for the mochi dessert which was literally a single mochi with a wafer on top I couldn’t believe it. It was cold the whole time and my tea literally came half full like I really wanted to like it and I loved their concepts but it just missed. I would definitely try again in like a year or get a takeaway!

    I never write reviews but absolutely have to rave about our meal here.. Im still dreaming of the steak and dirty fries and I will be for a long time! Cannot wait to get back here - special mention to all the amazing staff as well, unreal service!! I'm not sure of the guys name who looked after us but he took the time to go over the menu with us and give us his recommendations, it really put me at ease so I appreciate that! Thank you! I also want to say BEST COCKTAILS IN Derry seriously without a doubt! Charlie is amazing at what he does and no drink will disappoint!

    Fourth time back. 👍 Staff friendly, attentive and trained to a high standard. Professional yet relaxed 👍 Food arrives in record times thanks to the way they deliver food as soon as it's ready. 👍Bar staff are very professional as well and can create you a signature cocktail based on what flavours you like. 👍Most importantly the food is of a great standard. Flavours are complimentary and menus are changed based on the best season for freshness of ingredients

    On arrival I was greeted and given a choice of table, with consideration that it's Baltic tonight and I didn't want to be by the door, so I chose to sit by the kitchen. I ordered the whacky sake cocktail which was delicious. Complex, fragrant and slightly bitter, it proved the perfect foil for the beef tempura maki and dirty Korean fries. Staff are on the ball, perfectly aware of everything going on and able to give sound recommendations. I was sat by the open kitchen which seemed astonishingly calm, considering the pace at which the food comes out. Every detail is carefully and lovingly administered, and the result is fabulous food which is some of the best in Derry's already impressive food scene. It's a wee bit pricey, but the food is totally worth it for a treat.

    Hi, we were invited to dine here and we’re thinking what will we think. Amazing, this was a great experience, we enjoyed everything we were given, the cocktails were fantastic. Cannot wait to return. 10/10. The cabbage is amazing, the pork dish delicious, the scallops lovely, the sharing steak , so lovely. Did not feel full up but knew we had tastes that we want again. The staff are wonderful.

    Food is excellent and very fresh. Very well presented by very informative and pleasant staff. Love to see alternative restaurants in the city. So go on. Give it a try! There’s more to food than chorizo chicken and tobacco fukin onions

    Shared all four vegan dishes with a friend and we enjoyed them all, really tasty. Fast and friendly service. Little bit pricey, hope they might offer a discount for lunch in future!

  • 5/5 Scott B. 1 year ago on Google

  • 5/5 Rory M. 1 year ago on Google
    Unbelievable food! Highly recommend. The experience was top class from the minute we walked in. Had the vegan dumplings and beef Tempura maki to start, cote de boeuf between my wife and I - perfectly cooked. We have already booked a table for next month 👌🏼. Cheers to the staff! Looking forward to next visit.

    The best sushi. We ordered a mix of dishes which were all delicious, so fresh and the mix of flavours was amazing. I love that the dishes were served once they were ready not sat waiting. It is really reasonably priced for the quality and the staff are friendly, nothing is too much bother. The restaurant has a lovely relaxed atmosphere and the staff didn't rush us. So we has several drinks instead of moving on. I can't wait to eat here again.
