Umai (Stratford)

• I think the eat in charge is a bit of a rip off as the seating is not much better than the free seating just 10 yards from the store
• The quality of sashimi is better than the usual sushi chain take aways
• A delicious range of Japanese dishes are served in this small space that looks like one of the family run restaurants that I used to go to when I was living in Osaka
• Everything is prepared perfectly and deliver the original taste I'm fond of
• The atmosphere is absolutely authentic and brings back many memories for people away from home and those that have had a chance to go there
• The prices are fair for the huge portions and the quality you are served
• Japaneese china with adorable kitties on it
• You can taste that the fish used is a sashimi grade fish
• The sitting area is basically a part of a food court
• Its right opposite waitrose on lower ground floor and right next to exit so can be a bit busy and cold to sit and eat in especially with the exit doors opening and closing in winter months
