I have gone here several times now, and this place is consistent and solid. Great staff who are friendly and have great menu options that are often updated for the specials. The fried duck rice was amazing, my 1st time going, and I really enjoyed how they flavored the egg. The ramen and chasu are really good. I would suggest adding spice to the broth for a flavor kick, which is mild on heat level. The pork Bao Buns are perfect! Also, not pictured, I had the crab cakes that were on point! I will keep coming back as they have great dragon rolls as well.

The food here was amazing! We tried a variety and nothing was bad. I can't wait to go back. The dragon roll, dumplings, bao buns, spring rolls and bang bang shrimp were all so delicious. The chachew Ramen was sooo good. I can't wait to try more of the menu! Thanks for the great food. We did have a mix up on checking out and the waitress shorted our change. We had a small issue at the end of the meal with our check being wrong and being cashed out wrong but we just let it go. I'll pay more attention on our next trip when cashing out. Won't stop me from coming back! Food was 100/10.

My wife and I ate here for the first time tonight because I had a $30 gift card. Right off the bat we were impressed by the look of the restaurant interior. We were greeted by a friendly smiling hostess and quickly taken to our seat. We wanted to try as much as we could so we each ordered a ramen bowl and we ordered a sushi plate to share. The waitress, Cayla A., was extremely friendly and ready with a recommendation when my wife was undecided between two choices. The food arrived and was absolutely delicious. We ended up ordering dessert as well and were not disappointed. We ended up spending quite a bit more than what was on our gift card, but the prices were very fair for the amount of food received, so there are no regrets about our bill. Overall I highly recommend eating here. I know my wife and I certainly will be again!

This Korean restaurant specializes in ramen wings. They both came with spice choices from mild to blazing hot. I had the garlic and parm boneless wings (not hot at all), and they were amazing - the perfect blend of extra crunchy, juicy and flavor. They also had sushi rolls and nigri, as well as tasty appetizers. I did not have a ramen soup, but my family said it yummy. Your order is placed at counter, they give you a number, and your food is delivered to your table.

Had a recent visit here however i believe i had very expectations given the reviews but I would say it's okay in food quality and flavor. Due to dietary restrictions, we could only have vegetarian ramen however it did not stand out much to me in regards to flavor. My brother did like it more than me so i will give the benefit of the doubt. Another thing that bummed me is their eggs are dipped in pork sauce so we couldn't have egg on our ramen.
Special mention: the shrimp tempura was way too good, fresh hot and crispy. I will remember it for a long time.
Dessert was also average

House of Umami might meet the standards for the suburbs, Novi, Wixom, Canton etc
But, it falls far below expectations of Royal Oak, Ann Arbor & Detroit restaurants.
This is my second time here. The food quality has remained the same since first visiting months ago.
Let’s review the food.
- Chicken & Pork Bao buns: Dry and stale bun, fairly dry meat with a lacking flavor profile.
- Ramen: The Spicy Miso broth lacks flavor & depth, it was reminiscent of canned chicken noodle soup. Noodles leave something to be desired in texture and freshness. The pork tasted old or off. The egg was great.
- Sushi: The shrimp tempura was very good, tasted fresh and had a good flavor profile.
Dessert: Layered Matcha Crepe Cake was mushy / dense like a cake, lacking the airy refreshing qualities this confection traditionally has. The maraschino cherries garnish greatly conflict with the matcha flavor.
I want this place to elevate Canton, not matching the underwhelming qualities of the chain restaurants that dominate the suburbs
For a strong example of good Ramen:
Ima of Detroit
For Bao Buns:
BaoBoys Ann Arbor

Very expensive compared to Matsuchan, with the portions being much smaller here.
The rangoons were small. The Ramen dishes we ordered were also small. The Chicken Shio Ramen tasted like Mrs. Grass soup. The Bang Bang chicken had almost no sauce, was not crispy on the outside, and was ridiculously dry. The matcha crepe cake tasted like fondant.
The bao buns were good, skimpy on the portions. Spicy Salmon was okay, but way too much rice. The avocado bombs were very good. The staff were nice and friendly.
Overall, I spent an unbelievable amount of money for my family and I to be very disappointed.

Whether it’s guiding you to the perfect ramen bowl to suit your tastes or suggesting the best pairings with their signature cocktails, her insights never disappointed. You can tell she’s genuine about providing top-tier service, and it shows in every interaction I’ve had with her.

I was really excited to try the House of Umami Ramen given the excellent reviews however my expectations were not met. Given that you are expected to pay approximately 20$ per person at a minimum I was really looking forward to an explosion of flavors. We tried several items on the menu none of which I would consider buying again.
We started off with the Bao Bun and potstickers both of which were underwhelming. The Bao Bun had good texture but the pork inside did not provide any complementation to the soft textures of the Bun.
For the main course I was looking forward to some Char Siu and the Charsu bowl was recommended by the waitress. Unfortunately, I could only take one bite of bowl as it was overpoweringly SALTY. I do not typically like to return plates but I could not even try to finish the bowl due to the overwhelming sodium amount that lingered even after a glass full of water. I would like to give my compliments to the front of the house staff as they were very friendly and willing to exchange the plate for another item.
In exchange, we tried the Chicken Katsu Curry which is described as “rich Japanese Curry” but were also left disappointed. At this point we were so hungry we just ate to eat. In contrast to the Chashu Bowl the Chicken Katsu Curry had minimal flavor. The curry barely tasted like regular curry, the omelette was just egg no seasoning, and the chicken while juicy did not add any depth to the plate at all.
Overall, a very disappointing experience and not a location I would recommend visiting if you enjoy a well rounded meal.
While the plating, service, and decor was nice the most important aspect was significantly lacking.

What a great surprise: Was driving through the area after having not been in Canton for awhile and saw this place, was definitely "Japanese" in appearance and, if you love Japanese food that includes various Ramen and noodle dishes along with sushi and great drinks, this place is certainly a delight. Our waitress Madison and (I think) the manager Jennifer were incredibly welcoming and helpful, sharing warm conversation along with the details of the menu. I would go to Canton just to have their food again. Great job House of Umami Ramen - Thank you for the excellent experience that includes your recommendations...

The ramen is fantastic! I've tried pretty much all of the ramen selections and there isn't a bad one (although the tonkotsu is the best.) The bao are delicious, tea is great, and while I'm not a sushi fan, everyone I've brought here for sushi has enjoyed it.

We were in last Sunday for lunch and had a great time. Our server, Cori, was very personable and made great recommendations. Food was delicious, and the nice interior makes it a good place to bring family and friends. The pork slices are the real highlight

We had the tonkotsu ramen and the chicken katsu curry and they were both delicious! The noodles carried the flavor of the broth well, and the pork wasn’t overly fatty like I’ve had at some other places. The servers were all very friendly, and we got our food quickly (although we went when it wasn’t very busy).

I’ll start off with saying the atmosphere was very nice, beautiful decorations, crowd noise was at a good low volume. The service was good, waiter and manager (?) were really nice.
Food presentation was very good (I’ll include pictures).
Now, the food itself …. We got the Charsu Bowl, pot stickers, and a bao bun. The pot stickers were good, nice taste, nice texture. Recommend if you go.
The bao bun was … not bad, the mayo was the stand out taste, not sure if that’s what they were going for. Couldn’t even taste the meat though. Bread was good, soft.
The Charsu Bowl: the soy sauce taste was overpowering, tasted to me like pork drowned in cooking oil for weeks. The rice tasted off, almost burnt. We both really disliked the plate. The staff was extremely kind to replace it with our next choice - Chicken Curry: taste was okay, much much better than the bowl. However, where before it tasted too strongly, this one didn’t taste like much, where were the seasonings?? Best thing for me was the chicken breading.
Like I mentioned, staff was nice, atmosphere and service was good. Maybe it was just a bad food experience for us. Try at your own risk.

This is not that good. I don’t know why people are lying. The chicken is not seasoned and it tastes nasty. The bok choy isn’t fresh and the noodles aren’t either. I would give this a 1/5 honestly. Broth has no flavor. And I don’t even think it’s ran by authentic Japanese people. Definitely a knock off ramen restaurant

**Ambiance and Atmosphere:**
House of Umami Ramen feels like stepping into a cozy ramen wonderland. The modern decor with warm lighting makes you feel like you're in a chic noodle sanctuary. The seating is spacious enough to avoid elbow wars with your neighbors, and the background music is just right – not too loud to drown out your conversation, but not so soft that you start hearing your own stomach growl.
**Menu and Food Quality:**
The menu is like a treasure map for your taste buds, with options for meat lovers, vegetarians, and even picky eaters. As a vegetarian with a seafood and fish allergy, I was thrilled to find a vegetarian ramen option. However, the plot twist came when I discovered their molten eggs are bathed in a pork-based sauce – a bit of a bummer for vegetarians who eat eggs. This left tofu as my sole protein hero. But fear not, the vegetarian ramen was a flavor bomb, and the edamame with angry sauce was a spicy love letter to my taste buds. The strawberry crêpe layer cake for dessert? It was like a sweet hug in cake form.
**Service:**
The service here deserves a standing ovation. Although the bartender remained a mystery, they were fantastic. Kayla, the manager, was like the fairy godmother of customer service, magically making our experience delightful. She answered all our questions with the patience of a saint. Savannah, our waitress, was equally wonderful, ensuring our dining adventure was smooth and enjoyable. They made us feel like VIPs, minus the red carpet.
**Value for Money:**
For the quality and quantity of food, House of Umami Ramen offers great bang for your buck. The portions are generous, so come hungry or be prepared to leave with a food baby. The prices are reasonable, especially considering the tasty dishes and stellar service. While vegetarians might feel a bit limited, the overall experience is worth every penny.
**Cleanliness:**
The cleanliness here is top-notch. The dining area, restrooms, and even the open kitchen sparkled like they were auditioning for a cleaning product commercial. It's clear that hygiene is a priority, which only adds to the positive vibes of the place.
**Special Notes or Highlights:**
Special shoutout to the edamame with angry sauce – it's the appetizer equivalent of a spicy, sassy friend who always livens up the party. And don't miss the strawberry crêpe layer cake; it's a dessert dream come true. Kayla and Savannah's exceptional service deserves another mention. They made our visit memorable and fun, proving that great service can turn a good meal into a great experience.
**Conclusion:**
House of Umami Ramen is a delightful spot with a lot to offer. Despite some limitations for vegetarians, the overall experience is a win. The diverse menu, excellent service, and delicious dishes make it worth a visit. I hope they expand their vegetarian options in the future to cater to even more dietary preferences.

First time at the House of Umami. Wow! The food was incredible. I ordered the Spicy Salmon Bowl made with fresh spicy salmon, mango, purple cabbage, cucumber, edamame, avocado, radish, scallions, and sesame seeds. Service was amazing. Thank you, Tiffany, for suggesting the Spicy Salmon Bowl and for going above and beyond to make my dining experience perfect. I will definitely be coming back!

Best ramen restaurant in Metro Detroit. Went for lunch twice now because my wife and I couldn't get enough the first time. The crab rangoons, gyoza, and buns are amazing appetizers. The ramen is...astounding. Perfectly rich, deep flavors in the broth, the char siu pork is tender and flavorful, the molten eggs are the best we've had (we save them for our last bites), we've never had bamboo shoots taste so flavorful.
The service is the absolute best. Attentive, knowledgeable, friendly. This place is nothing but 5 stars.
