of menu choices are original creations or re-interpretations of

order all starter plates as a meal, let the prices and your server
help you judge the right balance between portion size and/or your
appetite at the moment. Our goal is to serve you quality food

ümami café is now beginning it's 9th year. We were opened in January 2002 by Jonathan Pratt and Craig Purdy. Our goal was to introduce popularize the "umami" taste, the fifth taste. We do not use food additives. We are committed to maintaining the highest quality and keeping prices as affordable as possible.
We also operate Peter Pratt's Inn, in Yorktown Heights, N.Y. The Inn has been owned and operted by the Pratt Family since 1965. Peter Pratt's Inn is located in a circa 1790 Colonial farmhouse, rebuilt upon the foundation and reusing timber form a circa 1760 stable on the same spot. This was a listed Revolutionary War Battle Site, a home, a Country Inn, and now a classical country restaurant. On all days with the exception of Saturday, we offer a casual Pub menu at the bar.
