U-maiya Japanese Restaurant @ Damansara Uptown

 

For Japanese Buffet, I tried Tao and Jogoya.The former was an a la carte buffer where as the latter was one of the most famous Japanese Buffet in town. Jogoya was not too good but Tao was consider average for buffet style. I have heard lots of good reviews from U-maiya but their price is also “not too bad”-on the higher side. Recently i only found out that they actually serve a la carte buffet on weekend lunch as well. However, it is difficult to make reservation. Bro’s friend called them a week earlier but they have already fully booked. Gosh…..Thanks to his ‘determination’ and ‘consistency’, the manager gave us a hidden table at last.

Their foods were really good. Literally, i think this is the best Japanese Buffet in town at least better than the famous one. Food quality was comparable. And with their price, it is definitely no complain at all. No wonder they are packed on every weekend.

Potato Salad

 

Imai-ya Green Salad

Something refreshing to start with.

Beef Teppan

This was a remarkable one. I think we repeated 3 times for this dish. Juicy and tender with the spike of garlic flakes eventually added extra aroma to the beef. Thumbs up!

Chicken Karaage

 

soft shell crab age

 

Tempura Tori

 

Tofu Steak

Smooth and soft.The tofu was memorable.

Yako Tori

Half Dozen Oyster  RM15

Oyster,fresh,sweet and mouthful. Not the best i have had but no complain.

Ebi Tempura,Salmon,Ebi Tempura Maki

Unagi Tempura

Something different. A little surprise but no extra liking for this.

California and salmon Hand roll

 

Kani Unatama Maki

 

Green Tea, Wasabi Ice Cream

Rounded up the meal with sum ice-cream. Green tea favour was delicious,wasabi was good to try but it tasted slightly spicy. I still prefer sweet dessert.

Overall, their food was pleasant and it is only cost RM 45 ++ per person. The only down part was their beer, plain as water.
