Yujo Umi

We had an amazing omakase experience at Yujo Umi in Frisco, Texas. My husband and I chose the $100 per person, 20-course omakase, and it was absolutely worth it—great price for the quality, freshness, and overall experience. First, the service was excellent. Our sushi chef, Khet, was outstanding, so kind, welcoming, and genuinely attentive. He took time to talk with us, explain what we were eating, and made us feel right at home. You can tell he takes pride in his craft and in giving guests a great experience. Everything tasted incredibly fresh and high quality. Chef Khet mentioned their fish is sourced directly from Japan, and we could truly taste the difference—the freshness, clean flavors, perfect texture, and beautifully balanced bites. I told Khet the sushi rice is one of the best in Dallas. He said they make their vinegar in house and that they carefully make their sushi rice with lots of attention. I was so happy to hear that. It was also my husband’s birthday, and they surprised him with a birthday ice cream, which was such a sweet touch. Everyone was friendly and thoughtful, and the whole meal felt special from start to finish. Tipping isn’t required, but we tipped anyway because everything—food, service, and hospitality—was wonderful. We’ll definitely be back, and we’re already planning to bring our family next time. Great price, great quality, and a truly memorable omakase. What we ate (from the omakase menu): Sashimi • Hirame (flounder) • Hotate (scallop) • Sake (salmon) Nigiri • Ebi w/ Uni (shrimp with sea urchin) • Bonito (skipjack tuna) • Tai (red snapper) • Suzuki (seabass) • Kampachi (amberjack) • Tuna Flight (akami + chutoro + truffle) • Sake Toro (salmon belly) • Seasonal (chef’s choice of the week) • Unagi (freshwater eel) • Shimo-Aji (striped mackerel) • Otoro (fatty tuna belly) • Gindara (black cod) • Hamachi (yellowtail) • Daily Sensation (lobster / snow crab) • Wagyu w/ Foie Gras (optional add-on) Plus: handroll, miso soup, and ice cream.

Wonderful meal! We ordered Uni Craze and the uni is so fresh!! Everything was creatively plated, combined into an exquisite presentation. Tastes super yummy. The sashimi melts in the mouth. I will try the Miyabi Omakase next time, which is 13 course for $75. Super good deal. I went with 10 course to try today.

This is hands down my favorite place for omakase sushi! Everything is incredibly fresh, beautifully presented, and full of flavor. The chef also takes the time to explain each dish before serving, which makes the experience feel extra special. My favorite one has to be the seafood trio—highly recommend trying it.

Amazing sushi, great signature dishes, outstanding customer service. We did the 16 course chef’s counter. The couple ahead of us took a bit longer than normal and the chef sent us some complimentary signatures while we waited. Extremely classy place, amazing food and great vibe and ambiance.

We were here for the $100 20 course omakase. Every single fish is fresh, tasty, and they just taste like haven!! Specifically the otoro sashimi, and Unagi -Foie Gras- must have. So highly recommended!
