LA’s Umami Burger opens in the OC Leave a reply [View the story "Umami Burger offers up the 5th Taste in Costa Mesa" on Storify] Umami Burger offers up the 5th Taste in Costa Mesa On a rainy Saturday, Umami, the gourmet burger sensation that’s swept LA, had a soft opening at the Camp in Costa Mesa. Umami is a Japanese word for "savoriness." A bunch of foodies had the chance to "Savor Umami Burgers" and get a preview of tastes to come.
