we specialize in crafting nutritious meals inspired by the unique combination of umami-rich flavors from east asia and fresh ingredients of california

\\//

our name is a bit of a paradox.

umami is a flavor in food that is typically developed through long, unhurried cooking processes like fermentation, dry aging, and gently cooking meat for hours and hours. the presence of umami is usually a sign that a lot of time and care has been put into your meal.

many of the ingredients in our meals take a long time to make, but we assemble it all for you fresh and fast - on demand, when you want it.

we’re cooking from scratch in our kitchens every day to share the food that inspires us to live healthier, more flavor-filled lives each day. we hope you feel the care in our food, and more than anything, we hope you enjoy our expression of umami meals made with a whole lotta love!
