"We had a fantastic experience at Umasa—so good that we returned the very next day. The staff do their utmost to deliver top-notch service while making guests feel genuinely at home. The food was flavorful and beautifully prepared, and the ambiance was relaxed and welcoming. A special shoutout to Yogi and his cheerful team for the personal touches—both visits included thoughtful surprises like handwritten cards, desserts, or drinks that made the experience feel even more special. Highly recommended for anyone looking to enjoy great food and heartfelt service in Labuan Bajo."

"Recommended to try Indonesian cuisine here while in Labuan Bajo. The place is beautiful and calming. Came here at 7 pm, after watching the sunset in Miaga bar (also recommended). Ordered iga babi bakar, kepiting soba, and sate maranggi, and everything is super tasty. They provided a welcome food, different varieties of sambal and crackers, which made the whole dinner complete. They gave us a complimentary dessert too, and also tasted veryyy nice. Thank you to Yogi and friends who had explained and prepared our dinner tonight!"

"We dined at Umasa to celebrate our anniversary and my husband’s birthday, and the staff made every effort to make this a memorable meal! The food was top-notch, especially the beef rendang and sambal selection. And when the food was too spicy they gave me a coconut ice cream that was rich and creamy and quenched the spiciness. We dare say this is the best local food we have tried in Labuan Bajo, and we look forward to dining here again when we return to Bajo."

"Rating is adjusted to Indonesia standard This is by far the best Indonesian restaurant we have had in Indonesia (incl. Jakarta, Bali and Labuan Bajo). The service, food quality are at Hong Kong standard which comes as a big surprise to us! Am glad that we stayed in this resort! Highly recommend!"

"This might just be the best Indonesian food I’ve ever had! Every dish was cooked to perfection — full of rich flavors, beautifully presented, and perfectly balanced. The service was equally impressive. Each dish came with a thoughtful introduction, explaining its ingredients and flavors, and even the history behind the restaurant’s name was shared with us. It felt like more than just a meal — it was a cultural experience. I left not only with a happy stomach, but also with a deeper appreciation for Indonesian cuisine and its heritage. Highly recommended for anyone who wants to enjoy authentic flavors and learn the stories behind them."
