Umi Cafe & Braaihouse

Beautiful restaurant in a nice spot, cool garden. Tried the Taiwanese beef soup, it was very good, I only gave 4 because I like the beef cube style I had somewhere else before, but the broth was flavorful. Also ordered the avocado matcha shake, tastes perfect, healthy and refreshing. If I was still hungry I'd have ordered more since the aroma of whatever they were cooking was tempting me to over eat. Lol. Next time I'll try something else. Definitely recommended for the nice food, atmosphere and friendly owner.

The food is really good and well priced. Salt and pepper tofu was amazing. We also got pho, popcorn chicken, garlic fries, and lemon chicken+rice during this visit. Also service is SO fast!! You place your order at the counter and they bring it to your table Definitely try the drinks/coffee! Loved their “snowing white” coconut coffee and other blended drinks. Boba isn’t their specialty but it is still ok. The owner is really kind and you can tell he cares about making good food for people. Every dish is well made and we have come back to dine here since.

A beautiful and serene gem in the heart of Issaquah! The price was reasonable given its location. We chose the outdoor space under the umbrella and our food came quite fast from the time we ordered about 10 minutes, which was fabulous! Normally, the timeliness of the food would mean alot to but I was enjoying the beautiful garden-like space so much it didn't matter this time. Try the matcha tea with cheese foam cream if you haven't! A nice discovery on our long trip back from Walla Walla. Will definitely come back for more of everything! :

This small little cafe tucked back by the community center of Issaquah is an absolute gem. I can't believe that I have been bringing my kids here to play basketball all year and just now discovered this place. The service is incredible. The owner is attentive, patient and really cool, the food is out of this world! We had Pho, Curry, wings, fries and popcorn chicken and it was all incredible to say the least!! The place fills up quick so come with patience and enjoy the atmosphere. It'll be well worth the wait!! Kid-friendliness: Everyone was extremely patient and helpful for our five little ones. There's no specific kids menu but plenty on the menu for kids.

I don’t normally love every single thing we order, but I definitely did this time. I got a strawberry latte and my husband got a cafe Vienna and I liked them both equally. They were delicious! We also ordered the pork belly bao bun and the duck bao bun and they were both really good, but our favorite was the duck. The crispy skin on the duck blew us away!

Wow! The atmosphere is so relaxing. The food was perfectly seasoned and it was out in a flash. This is definitely the kind of place I will be back to again and again.Food: 5/5

We picked this place arbitrarily and so happy we did! If you're looking for a date location, definitely check it out. The food is some of the best I've ever eaten, and the outside seating is divine with plants and a pond. The service is quick and easy. We will definitely be back, and we live an hour away! Vegetarian options: I got the vegan soup off the starter menu and it was delicious and the portion was just right

I’ve been coming here for a few years now. Had my first year at college so this was my first time back in quiet a while since I’m home for the summer. The older male server seemed short when taking our order. While waiting for our food to come out we watched him yell and argue with another customer over the dish she ordered. Definitely was super embarrassing to watch, felt super bad for the other customer. You would expect a server to act more professional especially when other people are watching. Food was good and thankfully the boba is still really tasty. I miss the female servers, they were much nicer. Don’t think I’ll be frequenting here anymore. Disappointed.

This place is interesting. It has 3 different atmosphere in one. An outdoor dinning with seats and huge umbrellas, a small area attached to the kitchen, and an separate room. It wasn't cohesive, but it has high ceiling and certain type of vibes. The food was med, but it was served super blazing hot. There's nothing outstanding, but its definitely worth a try. Parking: Boat style parking lot in the alley

Very friendly staff. Food was good. Loved the outdoor seating. Great place to have dinner on the way back to Seattle after hiking with my dog!Food: 5/5
