UMI Sushi & Ramen
Nigiri and sashimi cut to order, rolls built at the marble bar, ramen worth the wait — inside North Dakota's oldest Thai kitchen.
Ordering runs through Leela Thai's page — the UMI menus are inside it.

Why UMI?
- A room built for it
- Moon-gate archways, indigo tile, pendant lanterns over the sushi bar — and the koi, for prosperity and calm.
- Made in front of you
- The bar is the centerpiece: nigiri and sashimi cut to order, rolls built while you watch.
- Upscale, never stiff
- More coastal retreat than formal dining room. Linger over sake — that's the point.
