One of not many places in Portsmouth that never fails with their food: always reasonable wait times, good quality, full of flavour and great prices. 10/10, you won’t be disappointed

I come here all the time, couple of times a week sometimes and the staff are always really lovely and hospitable. Often chat with Veng and a couple of others when it’s quiet as I come in late. Food is always consistent and it’s a local independent business 🙌🏾

The restaurant had a lovely ambience, staff were super friendly and food had taste and was reasonably priced. We were pleasantly surprised to find out that meals for both my son's ages of 3 and 2, were on the house. Thank you Umami for this lovely gesture. The only negative points to mention was my meal of lamb chops, which was extremely hard, chewy and hardly tenderised or perhaps overcooked? I struggled so much, it took me double the time to finish my meal. On asking for a steak knife they didn't have any. Secondly, they didn't have any space for highchairs. Other than this, it would have been a full 5* However, overall we had a great time and recieved great service. We would happily revisit and try other options on their menu.

Never eaten here before, thought it looked good so ordered a couple of burgers. When it arrived, one of the burgers was missing. Phoned the restaurant who told us “sorry, we forgot”. We asked if they could send it to us and they said no we would need to reorder and pay the additional delivery fee. We asked as this was their mistake that they put the burger in a taxi like many other takeaways restaurants do anyway. They refused. They refused to offer us any money back or discount despite admitting they were at fault. On the phone they were not interested in helping, as far as they were concerned, they’d been paid who cares if I get my dinner.

Been visiting Umami for a number of years - the food and service has exceeded expectations. Todays visit was with 4 children (stressful as you can imagine), however the gentleman on the till made our experience very enjoyable and was very thoughtful in accommodating our children. Thank you we will be sure to visit again very soon.

They sure know how to bring out the umami factor in their food. A burger will never taste the same after you've had one here. And the friendly service (though you order at the till) by Huma and Veng will make for a brilliant experience. The decor is very nice too.

Now I know what the famous "umami" taste is: glutamate. All the five "umami" sauces tasted basically of glutamate, varying slightly by the added artificial flavours and colours. Unfortunately, these sauces (in addition to ketchup and mayonnaise) will be the only spices you'll get in your food. In general: One of the worst fast food restaurants I've ever been in. Very dirty and smelly. I had a "Lebanese Salad", which was the usual supermarket mixture of limp lettuce without any dressing. Only when searching very thoroughly, I detected four miniature pieces of falafel with four even tinier pieces of halloumi cheese on top. And they didn't even have any vinegar! I ended up dressing the salad with sweet lemonade because there wasn't anything else ...

Okay so the lamp on wall is nice, but it ends there, he obviously makes too much money ripping off his customers who probably too drunk to remember, says wide variety but actually a very limited chip shop menu, maybe they still waiting for curry sauce to be invented, who knows, food hot and fresh but, three different sizes of portions of chips are all same size portion and a large cheesy chips costs a pound extra on chips and a pound extra on cheese to the small portion prices of £2.50 ish, becomes £4.50, but the chips portion smaller than the small portion, Tried him 3 different times and same poor service as he makes you wait for him by walking into back maybe hoping you change your mind, but ask for a small amount and you get the large, plus he's either deaf, or really ignorant, I try chatting with him each visit and he just walks off until you stop talking at him, really odd chap, avoid, there's a good one up faucet road, and you don't have to remortgage for a decent size portion of chips.
