This was my first time here, and I stopped for an overnight stay in El Reno during a cross-country trip. I looked for restaurants close by and found Ume. WOW!! What a nice surprise. Very comfortable atmosphere, great service and the food was amazing. I had a house salad, spicy edemame, and the dragon roll. Very tasty! If I'm here again during lunch or dinner, I'll definitely stop. It's worth the stop.

Diners overwhelmingly call out the signature dish as the must-order. The vibe reads as vegan restaurant — service is consistently described as warm and unhurried. Common gotcha: queues form at peak times — go early or late.

So I came here today because I wanted some asain food. Initially when we pulled up I wasn't to impressed. To me, if an Asian restaurant doesn't look like a 13th century Samurai temple, Im not usually interested. But if truth be told, the food here was wonderful, my waiter was great, and the other staff were wonderful too. If they could throw in a couple of bonsai trees 🌳 and maybe a Samuria warrior into the decor, it would have been absolutely bliss. I encourage all the locals to visit this place.

We frequent this place often. It is a fantastic place to have sushi, hibachi, and just a great atmosphere. You would have to travel 30 minutes to get anywhere as nice and El Reno has a gem here. If you enjoy sushi and traveling or local, give this place a try. It does not disappoint! My husband brought me lunch home yesterday and my son invited me to lunch today! Why yes I will accept both offers!
