Located at 1338 W South Airport Rd, Traverse City, MI 49686, Umai Eats operates as a restaurant serving Traverse City in Michigan. This page gathers the practical details people usually look for before visiting: where it is, how to reach it, when it opens and how customers rate it. Google also lists it under sushi restaurant, which is worth knowing if you are comparing several options in the area.

This group covers the non-Asian restaurants, cafes, bars and food businesses that also appear in a mixed-cuisine food scene, including American diners, pizza, Mexican food, burgers, steakhouses and bakeries. Standard US restaurant norms apply: lunch and dinner service with a quieter stretch between, cards and tap-to-pay accepted almost everywhere, and a tip of 15-20% customary for table service. Fast food and quick-service counters expect payment up front and tipping is optional. Bars check ID for anyone who looks under 30, and the drinking age is 21 nationwide. Many restaurants in this group take reservations online through third-party platforms, while casual and fast-food spots are walk-in only. Sales tax is added at the register on top of the menu price and varies by city and state, so the final total is usually a few percent higher than the posted prices suggest.

Hours are published for 7 days a week. Typical hours are 11 am–8 pm. Hours in the United States do change around federal holidays and long weekends, so a quick call before a special trip is sensible. The listed phone number is (231) 252-2308. Many businesses also reply to text messages on the same number if it is a cell phone. Its website is umaieatstc.com, where you may find menus, price lists or booking options.

Customers rate it 4.9 out of 5 on Google across 200 reviews, placing it among the better-regarded restaurants in Traverse City.

Traverse City is in Michigan, in the Midwest, where summers are warm, winters are cold and snowy, and most errands are done by car; businesses keep steady year-round hours with the usual holiday changes. US addresses list the street number and name, then the city, state abbreviation and ZIP code, and Traverse City follows the same pattern; a suite or apartment number such as Ste 200 refers to a unit inside the building. The map link on this page shows the exact spot.

I had an amazing experience here! The customer service was great. Very kind and patient with my indecisiveness! There is a lot to choose from on the menu, so there’s bound to be something you will enjoy! Amazing little spot and definitely a place to check out!

I got tuna sashimi, tuna nigiri, and tuna maki. Literally amazing. My boyfriend got salmon sashimi (that’s not pictured) but that was amazing as well. Fish was fresh, buttery, and the sushi rice was great with a perfect rice to fish ratio on the roll and nigiri. It’s worth the price all the way. I also really like the wasabi and ginger here, which I’m only adding because sometimes the ginger and wasabi slightly disappoints me at other places and takes away from the experience since I LOVE wasabi and ginger. Eating inside was nice, and the service was very relaxing and kind. The only other sushi I’ve had in TC is Dojo Sushi which I loved and gave a great review to, but I’d actually choose this place over them because I like the sushi rice, the rice ratio and the fish better. I recommend this place, it’s my new number one and I’ll be back :)

I have now gotten takeout from Umai four times in the last 2-months. Every item I have ordered has exceeded my expectations in freshness, flavor, and creativity. I have to say I most recently had the best order yetβ€” The sunshine roll, the midori tuna roll, and the spam/egg cake onigiriβ€” I don’t know how I am going to venture away from this order. Absolutely phenomenal. Online ordering is done with ease; order is always ready timely; staff are always kind. Prices are what you would expect from any fine sushi establishment. Would love to see some β€œspecials” or β€œsimple rolls” be offered at a lower rateβ€” there’s a good chance I would just add it to my already amazing order! :) Thank you Umai eats!
