Umami - CHAGRIN FALLS

This is a real neighborhood gem in the cute little town of Chagrin Falls! It's on the pricier side, but the portions are not small (unlike many other upscale restaurants), and the quality is great! The food is fresh, made to order, and delicious! Many dishes have Asian influence; you'll find a lot of Thai curries with great depth of flavor, as well as korean gochujang playing a star role in many dishes, and Indian spiced plates. However, you'll also find things like goat cheese, which you definitely wouldn't see in traditional Asian cuisines. It all works, and you cannot go wrong with whatever you choose! Here, you will be in a very capable Chef's hands.

We had an awesome experience here with our toddler and newborn. We sat in a corner in the window and it was perfect. We ordered a bunch of small plates and shared. The Brussels sprouts with yuzu aioli were good, the bahn mi wontons were good, the roasted shishito peppers were good, the miso soup was great, the goat cheese dumplings were good, and the California roll was good. Servers were friendly and overall a fun time.

Umami is hands down one of my favorite places in Chagrin Falls. Wow. So good. First , the place is adorable ! Such a cool vibe and one that is super NYC right here. The food is the star here and they have amazing offerings all made scratch and with such care. The curry and ramen bowl is fantastic. My kids love the Shashimi trio and always get this . They have some great Saki too . The service is impeccable and If I could give it 10 stars I would. So darn good.

I finally had the pleasure of trying this restaurant. Service was great and the food was even better! Everyone in our party of four raved about how good their meal was. I can't wait to go back.

Wonderful inspired And masterfully prepared cuisine in a beautiful wabi sabi setting.
