I finally tried Umami after months of wanting to go there. After trying Ramen Kid, I was a little nervous to try ramen again, but Umami did not disappoint!
I loved the atmosphere there- the decor was modern and the lights were tinted giving a romantic/ formal feel. The Japanese decor was also flowed very well with the atmosphere.
I ordered the Shoyu Ramen and my friend ordered the Miso Chicken Ramen both with spicy bombs ($1 extra). The food came out pretty fast! The Shoyu Ramen was perfect. It had the perfect amount of salt and the perfect ratio of noodles to soup. The pork was the cooked to the 't', it was soft but not too soft. The bamboo shoots were fresh and flavored with a little mix of savory and sweetness. All the other vegetables tasted fresh as well. Would definitely recommend for anyone who is looking to try ramen in the Madison area.
