"I remember Umami burger as the pioneer of the craft burger era in Los Angeles. It was my favorite burger in town.A few years later they got bought out by SBE who decided to start cutting costs. Well, around 2018 I ate there and noticed something was different. The burger was still good but it just didn’t have the wow factor.I asked the waiter if the recipe had changed and he said that their meat was no longer fresh, it was frozen. Disappointing, but no big deal.Fast forward to today, I go into Umami for the first time in several years and notice the menu is unrecognizable. I wanted the classic Manly Burger but it was no longer on the menu. The menu now consists of double patty “smash burgers” on their new “squishy buns”.Disappointed but thought it couldn’t be that bad. Maybe I’ll be surprised.Well, I’m here to let you know that the burger I ate today was thee most foul burger I’ve ever eaten in my life. Not exaggerating at all.The bun was a soggy mess. The meat tasted chewy and old. They piled on these oily chopped onions. I was just shocked. Literally tasted toxic.RIP Umami burger. No wonder the restaurant was empty during prime time lunch rush. How did you go from the best burger in town to the worst burger in the country? What a tragedy."

It's a nice place to stop by on a hot day and grab something to eat. The burgers were actually really good here and I enjoyed this place very much.

Incredible burger! We arrived at 5 for an early dinner, and our food was served by 5:10. By 5:15, everything was gone! I highly recommend this place!

The service was absolutely horrible. Our waitress took forever to take our order and bring our food and there were only a few tables throughout the restaurant. She never once checked on us to see if we needed anything. The only thing she came back for was to give us the check. View menu

We got here and said we had a reservation. The restaurant was empty. The hostesses said “we’re not seating reservations, but the restaurant is empty so we can seat you anyways”. What’s the point of a reservation then lol also why make the comment if you’re going to seat us anyway.

I was here two times now, the first time I came here with the family and we had to go because no one came to take our order for 40 minutes, although we asked someone to take our order. the second time I decided to give him another attempt and was extremely disappointed. on the one hand, the person who sits me could not sit down me because all the tables were dirty and had to go something to clean a table for me. When I finally got into space, I realized there was no air conditioning or fan, so it was extremely hot and damp inside. when my food arrived, it was extremely small and had no taste or taste. I have the thin pommes that should be spiced, but it has spiced a lot. a burger who would h...

"I never leave bad reviews when I can help, but from our experience last night I only had to say for dinner as a whole was so disappointing, the least and after the output it was just a complete bill. if they come here for a nice dinner, they have great food or steaks please skip. go somewhere else food: we ordered the oysters, lobster bisque, bread basket (the btw is) and the tomahawk steak with sides. the entire meal was nothing special, characterized by the fact that even though our server always say that its just come out of the often his hot we have the broth basket roomtemp and the lobster bisque as a think. none of them were served hot. I give these stars only because of the tomahawk steak in the middle well, it was delicious. it was a hope that it would be good, right? we ordered the familiar and the brussels sprouts, but it came out, served on small dust sacks. small portions. a little taste. Note: they no longer serve the special measurable and sauce for any steak order. bummer ambiance service: la boucherie is on the floor of the hotel so that the prospects in the night are amazing. server were nice and polite. they were attentive and very professional. everything in all, if I can turn back the time, I wouldn't be here at all. the evening has lost its elegance and prices do not justify the disappointing food. I hope they can fix this and bring back the old la boucherie charme and aromen."
