Umi Sushi and Oyster Bar in Temecula

My partner and I decided to have dinner here with golf friends, I was quite surprised at how reasonably priced this sushi restaurant was… the portions were huge, we ordered way too much. The food did not come out fast but we were busy enjoying ourselves, when it did come out the rest of the dishes were rollin out quickly.OrderedBeef stickCrunch rollSpicy tunaVeggie TempuraAs mentioned, it was more than enough for the both of us. One of our friends ordered the lobster roll and it was absolutely huge. Partner said it was delish, fresh and had a nice crunch. P.S Random – Ask for sourdough rolls, they are delicious and pairs well with the clam chowder!

I attended a concert in The Summit and made a reservation for dinner at 8:45pm. Lucky for me I did because the hostess was turning away prospective diners stating that the earliest opening would be 10:30pm.I was led by the hostess to a nice booth for two (thank you!) even though I was dining alone. I ordered a Hendricks and tonic and the sashimi platter and the sushi platter.My server was apologetic about the wait for my food ... no problem, I was in no hurry. The sashimi platter came first; the only item I didnt care for were the two pieces of seared fish. I prefer my sashimi sans any preparation.There was a long wait for the sushi platter but it gave me an opportunity to people watch. The sushi could have been arranged more artfully because there was a large empty space on one side of the rectangular platter. I managed to finish all but three pieces of the crab roll. I thought the rice was a little mushy; I was in Japan for 3 weeks and came to appreciate the firmness of the rice there.Did I expect world-class Japanese food in Temecula? No, but it was fresh and, with a few exceptions, tasted good. I thought the price was reasonable ($126.36 + $28 tip) and the service was great. Four+ stars.

The restaurant is located inside the Pechanga casino. Just in case you didnt know!They have a good menu with a variety of dishes and seafood. The service is excellent, fast, friendly, attentive.The sushi rolls that we tried were a bit dry and hard. Similar to when you buy a packed roll at the supermarket. It has room for improvement.The small plates to share were very well prepared, such as the skewers. Worth another visit, because the casino is a fun place.

Beautiful ambiance.. Decent food.. very good bar, good service. Little expensive...

The Pechanga roll and Spicy Temecula roll were very delicious. The beef skewers and hamachi crisp are great appetizers.The ambiance and vibe are pretty cool, and the staff really elevate the experience. Qi at the front who sat us was so warm and welcoming. I’m excited to come back the next time I’m at Pechanga.

We went here to grab some late dinner, we sat in the bar since it always quicker and that time it wasnt really busy! But wait time for your food takes too long even its not the busiest day/night. No Idea whats going on.Water has a funny taste.Though, their cocktails taste good!I recommend Praopa as your server! Shes an angel!

Solid 3 to borderline 4 star. The price of the dishes are more than sushi establishments. It is not uncommon for the prices to be higher since it is inside the casino. The food is really good. The customer service needs to be elevated to justify the price.

What can I say... This place is one of my favorites! Not only for the food, but because of the friendly service to match!Its always a pleasure dining here as the service is the best around. Get seated by the nicest hosts, Zarah and Shai. I also have noticed that Zarah always has a smile and makes the experience start off right.If you get a chance ask for one of my favorite servers: Sabrina, Miki or Ernie - they are professional yet friendly and always look out for their customers!If no tables are available, the bar serves the full menu and theres usually no waiting.If youre looking for suggestions some of my favorite dishes are the king crab legs, surf and turf, hamachi cheek, sushito peppers, poki tacos and the beef skewers. They dont have a ton of sushi rolls to choose from unfortunately... But for sushi the salmon and yellowtail are always excellent.

Been here a few times and have tried a several items on the menu. Without a doubt the most delicious item is the Chilean sea bass and #2 is the hot rock waygu. Both melt in you mouth like butter. The halibut was dry and the salmon was bland.

This restaurant is inside the Penchanga casino, so it is a bit more pricey than regular outside places.Unfortunately, I cant say that the food there was great...only okay. The appetizer of smelt fries had no flavor itself, so only the dips that it came with provided taste. The salmon entree also suffered from a lack of flavor with only its surrounding couscous helping to save it. Nothing was terrible...only okay.
