Umami Burger is no longer only for those of us on the south side of the hill. The Daily News reports that the popular burger restaurant has opened its first location in the Valley, on Ventura Blvd. in Studio City:
The red, white and black decor is reminiscent of a '60s to '70s glamorous Hollywood with white marble counters, black booths, red seats with gold studs (at the bar and tables) and fancy chandeliers.
The Valley location is the chain's fifth shop.
