Our Menu
The menu proposed by Executive Chef Nacho Carmona is a combination of concepts such as Nigiris, Makis, Tempuras, traditional soups and Sashimis. Among the specialties is the "Maki Ikigai", rib eye hibashi with shishito tempura, "Rib Eye Gyozas" and the Ikura in Lemon. Another of the great surprises brought to excellence is the hedgehog (uni), one of the star ingredients of Umai, which is why several of its dishes were created with the inspiration of its complex flavor.
