From its discreet entrance to its elegant décor, Umu has always been a restaurant for that special occasion. The menu is influenced by the delicate cuisine of Kyoto, but other regions of Japan are also represented. You can expect a nod to British produce as well, with dishes like ginjo sake cured Scottish langoustine. The ingredients are of top quality and their natural flavours are always brought to the fore. Some dishes are simple; others are presented with a flourish at the table – but all are prepared with considerable care and respect.
