With the revolving Japanese restaurants on Willis Avenue in Roslyn, we felt an underwhelming dred as we pulled into the Umami Sushi and Grill parking lot. The last restaurant in this location was a mediocre Japanese restaurant that had a nice hibachi room but nothing to write home about. They redid the entire interior and […]
