Seafood, Sushi, and Hotpot Buffet in Westchase: Umi Buffet

Umi Premium Buffet has been making waves in Houston’s food scene! This all-you-can-eat seafood and sushi buffet is a dream come true for anyone who loves variety, fresh flavors, and endless options. From the moment we walked in, we were impressed by how well-organized everything was. Each section had its own dedicated space, making it easy to explore the massive selection without feeling overwhelmed.

The fresh seafood spread alone is enough to get excited about. Crab legs, oysters, shrimp, and even lobster make an appearance on the weekend! The cooked dishes were just as impressive, with beef and broccoli, cheese scallops, stir-fried crab, short ribs, lo mein, and fried garlic green beans (which we could honestly eat every single day). For those who love crispy, crunchy bites, the fried food section had all the classics, including chicken wings and fries.

Of course, no seafood buffet experience is complete without sushi, and Umi’s sushi bar did not disappoint. They had a huge variety of rolls, both cooked and raw, along with fresh sashimi, nigiri, and even caviar! 

The dim sum section was another highlight, featuring sweet yolk buns, har gow, and siu mai, all of which were incredibly fresh and flavorful. And just when we thought we couldn’t eat another bite, we made room for the ramen. Made to order, it was hands-down one of the best things we tried that night—comforting, rich, and exactly what we needed.

Dinner at Umi is priced at $38.99 on weekdays and $40.99 on weekends, while lunch is a steal at $23.99. The value here is undeniable, especially considering the variety and quality of what’s offered!
