UMA Japan Eatery

This is our family’s new favorite place for fresh, authentic, and the best value sushi and Japanese food in the NW suburbs. My wife is Japanese so she is super picky about Japanese food however even she likes it. For Valentine’s Day we got a massive sushi mixed platter for four and an order of really tasty Japanese style fried chicken. We don’t like cream cheese style sushi so they substituted all those with avocado and cucumber at no extra charge. The total was only $64 and it was so much we eat it for two meals. What a great deal for sushi! This place is very well known and liked in the large Japanese local Japanese community. It is easy to miss tucked away in the corner of the mall that has Goodwill by Lowell’s. There is no large sign on the building, only in the window (see pictures) We will be back to try the Poke soon!

My favorite sushi place in the area, for sure! They are my go-to for sushi and Japanese food. The ingredients have been super fresh every time we have ordered takeout. This time, we got a Philadelphia roll, a crunch roll and egg rolls. Everything was perfect and delicious. In the past, I've tried the lunch bento box that comes with one sushi roll, and entree, and egg roll and soup. Big fan of that lunch bento! The mini poke bowl and salmon are also amazing here. They have a large menu, so I keep ordering takeout to try new things! I had a delivery issue previously and contacted the restaurant directly via text. They were extremely helpful and friendly! Couldn't ask for a better experience. I'll be ordering again in a couple of weeks to try something new!

The absolute best Japanese eatery! I found it on Door Dash when staying in Schaumburg looking for a new place for dinner and was extremely pleased. The restaurant itself is super cute and the food was amazing! I got the egg rolls, Gyoza & Takoyaki for appetizers and their famous Chang Pong Noodle Soup - all of it was absolutely incredible. The soup had so many ingredients, from shrimp & squid to chicken & pork to corn & green beans, and it all came together with this super flavorful broth. They even included chopsticks, a real soup spoon, plenty of sauces and complimentary gummy bears & an after dinner cream puff! I will definitely be back the next time I'm in the area!

Everytime when I order from UMA Eatery is a surprise and blessing.

I really appreciate how much care and efforts they put into the packaging to ensure customers get the best take out experience. I especially love their little stickers they put on the packages, not only they are clear about labeling the food, they are also hella cute too!

Food wise, I always order their mix and match bento box - their hamburger and it's dressing is phenomenon! A must order 🤤

As an Asian foodie, I can tell you they care about their miso soup - which they put lots of efforts into the dashi stock, respect for that too!

I also love ordering from text cuz I'm all in on texting, pretty fast response but the only downside is that I can't remember their weekly closing date. I hope they can set up an automated ordering availability time chart thingy when client text😉

First time visit at UMA Japan eatery.
Small place and maybe it is good to order take out.
This place have space to dine in. We dined in!
Order was karaage and hiyashi chuka(cold noodle): this is not on the manu but they serve only seasonal. it came with some sides, bottle water and miso soup and Inari sushi😊
For me hiyashi chuka's soup was bit salty side yet, it came separately so i could taste before i put all in my bowl.
Karaage!! I liked it size is sooooo nice for the price❤️ ❤️ wish it more crunchy i definitely give 5 stars🌟
