Kid portion
Bella S.

Not a lot of tables inside is why I deducted one star, it's small and simple interior. Food is VERY good! Portions are generous, and the kiddie portions were perfect serving for my small appetite. Yummy grilled shrimp, fried wings and my boyfriend had the fried oysters which he loved.

Stopped by after a round at Franklin Canyon. Sumo is in a nice strip mall right off the highway with plenty of parking. Walked in and received a friendly greeting at the counter. Large varied menu with lots of hibachi style offerings. Saw a sign that said all the beef was wagyu. I ordered the beef and scallop combo with garlic fried rice and wife got Ty hibachi deluxe with beef, chicken and shrimp. Got a side of spicy edamame and the Gyoza. Edamame was really good... gyoza was a little cold inside so was cooked from frozen. Food came out after about ten minutes. It was piping hot and freshly made... scallops and meat cooked to order. Everything was good with exception of the gyoza. We'll be back!

Great food, cashiers, and service. Their hibachi seafood plate was amazing! The crab Rangoon, wings, and calamari appetizers were also good. Overall an amazing experience!

Our absolute favorite bar tender is Sharon! She is a great asset to this establishment. She knows every drink- a true mixologist! Sharon is quick with a smile & a joke- she sets the tone for a great evening- she is friendly, fast & is always great to chat with. Sharon always recommends good food choices to go with your drinks too. The food here takes a minute to get because it is all made fresh to order. So be patient, you will enjoy it. I've found it is reliably great! The happy hour menu specials are amazing as well. The atmosphere is friendly & clean- however they need a new larger A/C unit! Because of the hibachi type grills it gets warm in there. Great for winter, not so good for summer. I hope the owner's / management see this. It has to be hard to work in those conditions. But the staff keeps it all moving, light & friendly! Honestly, that is my only complaint about the place. Location, service & food + the bar is top notch!!! Happy Hour rocks thanks to Sharon!!

Everyone was friendly and attentive, the teppanyaki show was a lot of fun, and the food was genuinely flavorful. We also ordered the grilled oyster trio. I wish I remembered the names of all three, because every single one was SO good! We've been to teppanyaki restaurants from the West Coast to the East Coast, and this was easily one of our favorite experiences. What made the night even sweeter was that the staff didn't learn we were celebrating our twins' birth month until the end of dinner. They still brought out ice cream with candles for them! It was such a thoughtful surprise and made the evening feel extra special. Great food, great people, and a memorable experience. We'd happily come back!

We are regulars here! I will never say no to hibachi! My husband is the sushi eater and I'm the…read morehibachi fan, so coming here is the best of both worlds. Their AYCE all-you-can-eat sushi from 11am-3pm is such a great deal, and everything is always fresh and delicious. The quality and flavor are consistently on point. One of the best parts is that you can choose your experience. You can sit at the hibachi grill and watch your meal cooked right in front of you (which is always fun and entertaining), or you can sit at a booth and have everything prepared in the kitchen and brought out to you. Either way, it's so good. When you order hibachi, it also comes with soup and salad, which makes a complete meal. (My baby girl loves the soup lol.) It's such a fun family experience. Great food, great atmosphere, and always a good time. Definitely a spot we keep coming back to! Pro Tips: If you have little ones, ask for kid-friendly chopsticks. They have beginner ones for kids (or even adults) to use! Appetizers are included in the AYCE sushi deal. Don't forget about that! AYCE Sushi is unavailable at the hibachi grill, you can only have that at the both. Also, as a heads up, a gratuity charge is automatically included in the check.

We had hibachi and it was new to me to add bacon to the fried rice. It was good though. The chef was friendly and tried to engage everyone. The food was good and well seasoned. I had the two combo hibachi so chicken shrimp fried rice and veggies. The yum yum sauce is everything. I had a cocktail too and it was fire! I ordered the crunch roll for my husband for lunch and ordered the dragon roll for self for dinner. They did complimentary ice cream for the birthday girl and even assisted with plates and a nice to cut the birthday cake. Don't forget they do the birthday song with the drums and It was a good experience and will be back
