About
Since the late 1970s, Umeno has quietly held its ground as one of Amsterdam's most steadfast Japanese restaurants. Tucked away on the Agamemnonstraat in Amsterdam Zuid, the restaurant is guided by chef Atsuhito Hosono's unwavering commitment to purity: no Western influences, no shortcuts — just traditional Japanese cuisine built on the finest ingredients.
That dedication has earned Umeno a Gault&Millau score of 14.5/20, complemented by a Google rating of 4.6 from 278 reviewers. The experience revolves around a fixed nine-course menu that cannot be altered — a deliberate stance that keeps the kitchen's integrity intact and invites guests to surrender fully to the progression of the meal.
An extensive and carefully curated sake selection accompanies dinner, presented with knowledgeable enthusiasm by the host. Umeno is open Wednesday through Sunday for evening service; reservations are available and highly recommended.
