Our Vision

Umami is the fifth basic culinary taste alongside sweet, sour, salty, and bitter. Translating to "pleasant savory taste" in Japanese, it is triggered when taste receptors on the tongue detect glutamate—an amino acid found in broths, meats, and fermented foods—resulting in a rich, mouthwatering, and long-lasting savory flavor

We wish to create a memorable experience with the people you love and sushi that you will never forget.

We are on a mission to serve the highest quality fish and japanese centered meals with flavors and techniques that you and your guests’ expectations will be exceeded by.

Philosophy of UMAMI+

We believe the love of sushi and Japanese cuisine should and can be enjoyed in the comfort of your own space.

Our cuisine is a celebration of our hardworking neighbors here in Salt Lake City. We aim to protect our land by prioritizing sustainable practices, so we choose fish that comes from companies that care.
