Very delicious and fresh fish, all served with a dollop of amazing toppings. If you celebrate a birthday you will be served a lovely plate of desert with a candle! read more

Came here with friends to celebrate a graduation and promotion & we got the Yokozuna Grand Champion experience. We sat at the bar area and the sushi was so yummy and buttery tasting with unique flavors. I'm glad I got to try a lot of new things and I enjoyed it all. From the raw wagyu nigiri to the bluefin tuna squid ink toast. It was all oishii!! The service was so friendly and knowledgeable and detailed when presenting ever different dishes. I really want to say arigato every time but I was shy since I've never experienced this kind of dining before. The ambiance inside was very zen feeling with nice tea pot decorations. Outside vibe was a little sketchy but ample amount of parking and the entrance was nice. Overall a great experience, I came to find out uni is so much better from Japan compared to Cali which wasn't a shocker but dang I was missing out. I love the new experience and am very thankful to have tried my first omakase experience here. read more

I heard about this new spot, and with local Edo style spots costing upwards of $250-400, their much more affordable price peaked my interest. I wasn't expecting much knowing that this was attached to an AYCE restaurant, but wow, was I surprised! The quality of the fish was super fresh. Every single morsel they served was packed full of flavor and not one piece disappointed. The service was good and all three chefs, Yuki, Eddie, and Tomo did an outstanding job at serving some delicious food. The interior was clean and minimal, with the decor being classic style, all with a modern comfortable feel. I don't know how long they will be able to sustain such a quality experience at these prices, but it's definitely my new favorite goto. Note that due to its size you should arrive exactly at the reservation time. If you arrive early you'll have to wait outside as they do not have space for early arrivals to congregate. read more

We visited Sumo Omakase because the restaurant looked clean, and the interior gave a nice omakase atmosphere when we first sat down. Unfortunately, the experience quickly went downhill. I noticed flies flying around the food preparation area and even landing on the food being prepared. The chef was extremely busy and didn't seem to notice, so I pointed it out because I was upset and honestly was ready to leave. What made it worse was that one of the chefs said, "Don't worry, it won't land on the food," but I had already seen it happen with my own eyes. That response was very disappointing. The food itself was not good either. The sushi rice was overly soft, like it had too much water, and several dishes were far too salty. On top of that, the head chef seemed more focused on talking to another customer in Japanese than paying attention to preparing the sushi. Overall, it was a very disappointing experience, and I won't be coming back. To make matters worse, when the bill came, the suggested tip options were 20%, 25%, and 30%, which was frustrating considering how poor the experience was. read more

We had an absolutely beautiful omakase experience at Sumo--one that felt thoughtful, refined, and memorable from start to finish. From the moment we arrived, the service was seamless. We were warmly welcomed, and throughout the evening, the team remained attentive without ever feeling intrusive. Plates were cleared promptly, allowing the experience to flow effortlessly. We chose to sit at the bar, which I highly recommend for the full experience. Watching the chefs in action is part of the magic--it's like dinner and a show in one. Our sushi chef guided us through each course, offering insight into every dish, which made the experience feel even more personal. We opted for the $79 Omakase menu, which was the perfect amount for us that evening. The $99 option is definitely on our list for next time--especially with an earlier seating to fully indulge. Every bite was exceptional--fresh, high-quality sushi with clean, vibrant flavors that truly stand out. We paired our meal with 2 bottles of Sauvignon Blanc, which complemented the courses beautifully. This is easily one of the most exciting new omakase spots we've tried. The quality, presentation, and service make it an incredible value. We'll absolutely be back--and already looking forward to our next visit. read more

Another omakase franchised by the sushi all you can eat and hot pot group nearby China town. It's a couple of stores down of the other omakase, Kaiseki Sanga. They have two tiers of menus: $79 and $99. According to the staff, $99 is much better quality, so our party of 4 all chose $99 tier. Being to a couple of omakase, my friends and I agreed this is not omakase. It's more like a Japanese assorted dishes that you don't select bring to your table. Barely any presentation or introduction of ingredients or cultures behind the dishes. Very noisy inside, mediocre service (considering they are still new, it takes long for the server to come by, and they messed up the dishes), and the food, we all think it's more like all you can eat quality, the sushi rice is not even as good as the ones from supermarket. You can even see the chef pre-made the nigiri. I would give a three star to be fair. Why 4 stars, because of the portions. If you want to eat Japanese food but don't want to experience the wait and crowds of AYCE, this omakase is definitely generous. read more

I heard about Sumo Omakase opening on instagram and put it on my list to try. My friend and I opted for the $79 Ozeki omakase course that comes with 7 nigiri. We don't have big appetites and the 11 piece nigiri plus additional 5 seemed like too much for us to handle. The Ozeki was perfect, we were already full before the nigiri finished, but enjoyed every bite. We were comfortably full. The 2 opening appetizers were perfect and refreshing. Nigiri was beautifully tasty, textures spot on, and the small topping accents really elevated the dish. I would love the candied yuzu on a piece of toast too. Service is very nice and attentive. I would return, and a the current price, I could eat here after a long week of work instead of waiting for a special occasion like the other omakase places in town. read more

What a beautiful and well priced omakase!!! My husband and I went for dinner, and got the Yokozuna set. All the flavors blended so well, from the starters to each nigiri! What is even more amazing is that there's an encore nigiri of 5- at this point we were so full but we asked for half rice which made us still enjoy without exploding! The main host/server was so attentive to each party and our orders/requests, and it was so amazing to see all the chefs in their zone! Would highly recommend going here for a nice relaxing dinner and for your moneys worth! read more

Locked in the 7:30 seating at Sumo Omakase with some friends. For the quality you're getting, this has to be one of the more affordable omakase spots around. sit at the counter. That's the full experience. Watching the chefs work, seeing the precision, getting each piece handed to you directly, that's how it's meant to be done. It turns dinner into a show. Fish was fresh, flavors were on point, and by the end I was full but still thinking about the last piece I ate. My wife already said she wants to go next time. She doesn't eat much though... so that just means more for me. Everybody wins. read more

I've always avoided Omakase because I like to pick exactly what sushi I want to eat haha. That said, we decided to come here to try out that experience. Booked on Resy, let them know it was for a special occasion and also listed allergies and they were super accommodating! We got the "Grand Champion" set which was $99 - and honestly, I think it's a great value. You start out with some super refreshing salads to get your palate ready. Then, we feasted on ~19 pieces of high quality sushi and/or sashimi. You end the meal with miso soup and dessert, which was ice cream with a Japanese wafer. Honestly, the quality of the fish was really good - especially for the price. I didn't notice any fishiness in the nigiri. Some of the standouts included the King Salmon w/ salt and yuzu peppers - so bright, and that salt makes the flavor pop. The Shrimi with Shishito Pepper vinaigrette was another standout. Was this the best sushi I've had? Not really - but for how much you get, and the price, it's great. I'd rate the quality at around an 8.5/10, and they cook their sushi rice just right here. The lowlight of the meal was probably the miso soup. One of the most watery, tasteless miso soups I've had lol - so I hope that was just a bad batch. Not enough to knock this entire experience, which was well thought out in terms of the sequence items were served, the flavors, etc. They did say that they will probably raise the price of this "Grand Champion" set, so I would hurry up and try it at this price! read more

The restaurant has clearly invested a lot in the decor and plating, but the actual food was a major disappointment. For an omakase menu, the quality of the fish was subpar - it lacked flavor and, in several instances, had an unpleasant fishy smell. Many of the courses felt low-effort, featuring bland ingredients, overcooked rice, basic miso soup with a clam or two thrown in. As another reviewer mentioned, the experience was further compromised by a fruit fly problem. Waving away flies from food and wine glasses really detracts from the upscale environment that management is trying to create and maintain. Investing in a better supplier for higher end ingredients (and charging more if necessary) in order to match the ambiance would create a better guest experience. We had serious suspicions on whether the restaurant utilizes the same ingredients as the AYCE next door. It's a shame to have better food quality at your local neighborhood casual spot given that this place has excellent service and so much potential overall. read more

Update after tonight's dinner: Even better the second time! The quality is impressively consistent, every bite was outstanding, and we were seated right on time. The entire evening felt smooth, polished, and thoughtfully executed. This place truly delivers -- absolutely worth every penny and easily becoming one of my favorite omakase spots in town. read more

When I saw the instagram ad for this place and the pricing, I couldn't wait to try them out. Safe to say that they did not disappoint. Was it the best omakase I have ever had? No, but for the price I paid, the amount of food I ate, and the overall service and ambiance, it sure was worth the $99. Seriously, this is the best deal you will get in town right now for omakase. We opted for the $99 menu and were left feeling so full by the end, which was not the case at the two other (more pricey) omakases we have tried in town. They had 2 appetizers, 11 nigiri which were served one at a time, then an encore of 5 more nigiri, then a hand roll, miso soup, and dessert. The nigiri we were served was really good and fresh. The toppings added an extra layer of flavor which is why you're paying the price you're paying. If you want an introduction to omakase "leave it up to the chef" sushi without breaking the bank, this place should be at the top of your list. It also helps that their alcoholic beverages are reasonably priced, although currently limited in selection. I had the wandering poet and the wife had the sparkling yuzu sake, which are very, very reasonably priced but also delicious, resembling some of the sakes we tasted in Japan a month ago. read more

Fantastic Omakase, service was impeccable. Food was an experience and we left full and satisfied. Would go back again and again

Our first Omakase experience and it was excellent! Very chic and modern decor. Very nice staff. Kind and precise service,of all courses. We will visit again. read more

Such serendipity! Stumbled upon this newly opened restaurant. Very cozy w/choice of table or bar seating. Latter gets you up close & personal w/your chef. Very attentive service. Fish was freshest I've ever had including uni. Attention to detail was incredible, especially the little details for each course. Order the Yokozuna (Grand Champion): you'll thank me afterwards. What an amazing dinner. Can't wait to return! read more

A welcoming environment with warm lighting/wood accents throughout. Staff is friendly and attentive. For sure, an elevated dining experience. They offer you a "enjoy the food with less interruptions" approach. We sat at the tables but have bar seatings if you want to be closer to the action. We went with their Yokozuna menu for 2 people and was affordable for omakase. The ingredients shined through without being over-seasoned. The quality was top tier. I would highly recommend this place for any special occasions. read more

This was hands down the best sushi restaurant I've ever been to. Every single dish was incredibly fresh, beautifully presented, and full of flavor. You can truly tell the quality of the ingredients and the care that goes into each roll. But what really made the experience unforgettable was the service--attentive, friendly, and genuinely welcoming from start to finish. They made us feel taken care of without being overbearing, which is rare. If you're looking for amazing sushi and an overall great dining experience, this place absolutely delivers. I'll definitely be back! read more

I have never left a review but because this restaurant and experience were so bad and it was such a rip off that it warranted this review. Hopefully, it will warn and help others. I live in Kyoto and understand the true meaning of 'Omakase'. As such, even the bare minimum levels of having an Omakase meal here was not met. To summarize why; - The first 2 courses of 'salad' were nothing unique, special or tasteful. I could have easily purchased those basic ingredients and made it. - The nigiri (all), were 'fishy' and not fresh, not what would be expected from an 'Omakase'. Everything felt and tasted like the sushi one gets at an AYCE sushi place except the pieces here are just slightly bigger. - The rice was heavy in vinegar (I know because my stomach told me afterwards which only happens when the sushi rice is bad or has too much vinegar). - The handroll was bland and the seaweed was not crunchy (not fresh) at all. - The uni was the ONLY item that tasted normal and somewhat fresh. Thank God because if the uni is not fresh, you will get stomach issues. - The miso soup (at the end for some reason) tasted like the miso packets from the supermarket. Pretty sure it just came from miso paste in a big pot. - Ice-cream + wafer was definitely Dreyer's ice-cream I can assure anyone who have been to Japan, or to a 'real' Omakase or have any understanding of what good/great sushi should be will easily understand what I have shared. The sushi from Japan supermarkets: Co-Op, Aeon, etc. (IYKYK) are 100X better than what was served, but the audacity to charge what they charge but most disrespectfully, call it Omakase, is a travesty. Live and learn but hopefully this will help others. Could have just gone to an AYCE sushi place and it would have been 1/2 the price but you know what you're getting and you'll at least be stuffed. Good luck because if you continue serve and represent this - as is - you may get people to come once (like us) and get scammed, but you will not get any returning customers. read more

soft opening for the sumo sushi chain but omakase style. The interior and atmosphere first catch your eye. The wide wall and black "stone" as you sit in the bar definitely leaves an impact. The courses were good and flowed well. We got the "Yokozuna" and for 100 bucks you get high quality fish and unique flavors, the best course I ate was the uni nigiri, deep/rich flavor. Servers were attentive and graceful The downsides I felt were that the tuna courses were a little fishy and the dessert was a little lack luster, but overall it was an above average experience for eating sushi read more

Service and food were good. I'm giving 4 stars on food and 2 for managing your guests. Management neglected to quiet the korean party of 8 or so down due to their rude and really outrageous loudness and disrespectful dress code since the establishment indicated business casual. I put on long pants for this occasion and saw shorts and flips flops from this same loud family. No real omakase allows large parties. That party killed the entire atmosphere for me and those alongside us. Bitching about this Korean family aside, Sumo was good. If they keep this pricing they need to switch up the menu regularly. You can't up the price down the road and not offer anything better or change with the seasons regularly. As of now I will stick with Sushi Hiroyoshi on Charleston as I've had in the last 10 years. At least I can have 20 different kinds of fish without some family disrespecting the quietness. read more

Great environment!!! No big lights very dim had great music too!! The service was very fast and attentive

This omakase spot is really solid. The price feels very reasonable for the amount and quality of food you get. Highly recommend--I'll definitely be back. read more

The food was really yummy. The stuff was very helpful. Everything was timely and they gave us a free birthday so you definitely coming back.

Outstanding from start to finish. High quality-omakase style appetizers, sashimi, and nigiri at a reasonable price. The food is comparable to that of the high-end, Vegas strip hotel sushi restaurants and expensive off-strip omakase venues. (Yes, we've dined at most of them.) Service at Sumo was excellent. The chefs introduced each course. I recommend reserving a spot at the sushi bar to enjoy the full experience. I haven't posted many Yelp reviews but choose to do so when I believe a new restaurant deserves the support of Vegas locals and visitors. read more

I can't talk highly enough about this place. The service was amazing! Everyone was so friendly, and took great care of us. The fish was out of this world! However, the uni might've changed my life. It's a must for a fun sushi outing, or a cute date night. 10/10 read more
