Umi Sushi by Weight Chicago (push pop sushi)

UMI Sushi “Push Pop” Experience

So we finally tried the viral UMI Sushi push pop sushi… and yeah, it’s exactly as ridiculous (and awesome) as it sounds.

We grabbed:

Flamin’ Hot Cheetos Roll

Salmon Philly Roll

First off, portions? Legit.

The rolls are actually a solid size, not some gimmick snack pretending to be sushi.

And the soy sauce tube?

Elite touch. Felt like we were performing sushi surgery in public.

There was a bit of a wait but honestly…

when a crowd forms around sushi like it’s a sneaker drop, you know you’re in the right place.

Ordering was easy with kiosks (bonus: no-contact option), and they’ve got a whole station loaded with:

wasabi

spicy mayo

eel sauce

So you can build your own chaos.

Downside?

This is 100% a grab-and-go situation.

No real seating… so you’re out here eating push pop sushi like a confused adult at recess.

Drink options are limited but the upside is these things travel insanely well, and they come in a surprisingly nice cloth bag.

Also…

Tried to take a picture eating it.

Looked absolutely unhinged.

Did not make the cut.

Go experience that part yourself

Final Score

7.5 / 10 fucks given

🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕

Lost some points for:

the wait

the crowd

nowhere to sit, enjoy, and process your life choices

BUT…

Fresh sushi

Fun concept

Would absolutely eat again

Verdict:

Go grab a sushi push pop. Embrace the chaos.
