This is the second time I've dined at Umami Omakase. They're expensive, so I don't often have the opportunity, but they are well worth it. Service was exemplary, and they easily accommodated my allergies. Every dish was a single, perfect bite. And yes, despite the tiny portions for each dish, 18 courses was definitely enough food to leave me comfortably full.
