Overview

Umami Restaurant and Sushi Bar in Melbourne has accumulated 216 violations across 32 inspections since 2016, averaging 6.8 violations per inspection—significantly above Florida's statewide average of 5.2. The facility has experienced no emergency closures but has received multiple warnings and call-back extensions in recent months, indicating systemic compliance issues requiring repeated reinspection.

High-priority violations have been persistent and serious. Employee health reporting violations appeared in four of the five most recent inspections (through March 2026), along with recurring findings for management awareness, approved food sources, time-temperature control, and consumer advisories. In February 2025, a single inspection documented 13 violations including high-priority citations for improper cooking temperatures, shell stock requirements, and food in good condition. A warning was issued on October 2, 2025 after 30 violations were documented in one routine inspection, including high-priority findings for management awareness, approved food source compliance, time as control, and consumer advisory failures.

The facility has also faced repeated fire safety violations related to cooking equipment producing grease-laden vapors with no hood suppression system, cited in October 2020, February 2021, and July 2022—a three-year pattern of the same unresolved hazard. Most recent inspections show mixed outcomes: March 23, 2026 was marked Call Back - Complied after 4 violations, but the December 29, 2025 inspection received an extension pending compliance with 6 violations, and the October 20, 2025 inspection resulted in an extension with 12 violations still outstanding.
