After months of anticipation, UMI Sushi has announced that it will officially begin its soft opening in Downtown Frederick on Wednesday, July 15, according to Montgomery County news website Moco Show.
Located at 50 Citizen’s Way, the new restaurant marks the second location for the family-owned business, which first opened in Ellicott City in May 2019. Owners say bringing UMI Sushi to Frederick has been an exciting but challenging journey.
“Preparing our second location has been a nerve-wracking but insightful journey that has allowed us to get to know better the wonderful community of Downtown Frederick,” the owners shared. “It’s also come with its fair share of unexpected delays and learning curves.”
The restaurant had originally hoped to open in May, but unexpected delays pushed back the timeline. Now, the team says they’re excited to finally welcome guests.
The soft opening will take place from 11am to 9:30pm on Wednesday, July 15.
To celebrate, UMI Sushi will offer:
- Exclusive merchandise for the first 50 customers.
- Complimentary sushi samples for all guests.
- Live music in the evening.
Known for its fresh sushi, modern atmosphere and warm hospitality, UMI Sushi has built a loyal following since opening its Ellicott City location. The owners say they’re thrilled to bring that same experience to Downtown Frederick.
“What started in Ellicott City has grown into a second home,” they shared. “We’re so excited to finally expand our UMI family and bring the UMI experience to Frederick.”
