Sumo Sushi & Grill was located conveniently close to our hotel, and with a sushi craving hitting me hard, I talked everyone into coming here for a late lunch. While they do have a la carte options, I felt like the all you can eat was a better deal, especially if you plan on ordering more than a couple items. Their fish selection is pretty limited, but I was excited that they had a decent number of tuna items. I went a little hard on that and ordered a bunch of tuna cut rolls and nigiri. They do have a lot of rules at this place, though we found the ordering process pretty straight forward, and the waiter was pretty helpful in explaining everything. There are only a couple items on the menu that cost extra, but be careful. Overall, I thought the sushi quality was pretty disappointing. The tuna nigiri was especially bad, with the tuna rolls being a little more appetizing. If looking for a sushi restaurant in Amsterdam, you can probably do better than this, at least I hope. If you don't mind low quality fish, this place will suffice, however, if you are used to good sushi, you'll likely be disappointed. Food aside, service and ambiance were both nice. No complaints in that department.

The place has a lot of potential, and some good music or energy from the staff would go along way. The sushi tasted just fine, but I just wasn't feeling it.

Sorry - we'd had excellent sushi in Paris (and elsewhere) but we get it, you're a robata bar. Still fun, and the light lunch we needed before rijstaffel for dinner. We enjoyed our just around par sushi - and the fact the sushi chef gave us an odd wasabi sauce (delicious!) and said "Fresh!" just after he cut open a packet and poured it on a plate ;D The sushi is nothing to write home about. Still a fun place, and a safe bet for a late lunch, if not mind-blowing :)

The tea here was excellent and very fragrant. Most of the dishes were delicious and well-prepared. However, there were two downsides: the steamed grouper seemed to be frozen as the meat was mushy and not fresh, and the braised pork belly (kau yuk) was quite difficult to eat for our taste. Overall, it was a filling meal, and we appreciated that the food wasn't overly salty or MSG-heavy, so we didn't feel thirsty afterward. Worth a visit.

Adorning one of the walls are solar powered neko cats that wave to you from the window. On the walls are interesting art pieces, one in particular with instructions on how best to enjoy ramen. Serving us most the night was the main chef himself who observed us smile with ease at every first bite we took of each dish served. The food was quite good. Small portioned with intentions to share with others; three to four dishes are plenty for a party of two. We were starving so we ordered quite a bit. Sashimi was okay, nothing worth raving about. However, they did have two types of soy sauce for sashimi. They had the traditional Kikkoman soy sauce which is often used for sushi and sashimi and then they had the Shibanuma soy, which was ever so slightly thicker and sweeter IMO. The Shibanuma is meant intentionally to be tasted with sushi and sashimi, not to be cooked with as the server mentioned. It was tasty, most defintely. Honorable mentions were the mongolian beef stew, which came piping hot and delicious. Picture does not do the dish justice. Meat was fall apart tender, full of spice and flavor. Probably best paired with a neutral side, like white rice but we got stir fried udon noodles instead. Udon noodles were delicious as well. Simple yet well made. Noodles had good chew to them and came out piping hot. Overall, nice restaurant to try out if you're in East Amsterdam by oosterpark and craving good variety asian food.

Good flavor, just enough filling, cooked perfectly, paired that with the soup and some chili oil = chef's kiss!! I also wanted some simple egg fried rice to go, and the server told me that they have a side option which I opted for. Even as a side, it was a good amount!! I asked her about the chili oil and if they made their own and she said yes, so I asked if they could sell me some. She sold me a good small cup size for I think 5 euros. Sooooo good!!! Will definitely be back to try some other menu items and definitely will be back for the wontons and chili oil again.

A lot of food was left uneaten as we couldn't bear to eat more. Our complains to the manager and the server were totally ignored, the manager said we change the oil everyday.... we even asked them to taste it themselves. With not a single word of apology, care or concern we were handed the check for € 293. When you go to a four and half star rating restaurant with high prices would this kind of experience be acceptable....shame on them!

It's a multi-level restaurant that stays packed during prime hours, which is always a good sign for the food quality. They serve Dim Sum all day, which is a huge plus. The flavors are very traditional. While the Dim Sum was solid across the board, the Beef Chow Fun was the absolute standout--perfectly prepared with that signature "wok hei" (breath of the wok). The staff isn't necessarily warm and fuzzy, but they are efficient. Don't expect a long chat, but you'll get your food quickly. Be prepared for a bit of a climb; the restaurant spans several floors and it appears to be stairs-only. It gets very crowded, so timing your visit is key. A must-visit for Chinese food fans in Amsterdam. Just be ready for a lively, busy environment!

Their menu is impressively large and the dining room is small but inviting. Prices are quite high, but you are in a tourist area. We ordered a Kung pao chicken and a chicken fried rice to share. We both had a very weird 'chemical' taste that would occasionally occur with the Kung pao but neither of us could figure out what it was. The chicken fried rice was fine but contained very little chicken. My house white wine at 4.5 was fine as well as hubby had a Heineken. The biggest issue was the many Gnats that just descended on us once our wine arrived. If you zoom in on the picture, there were quite a few just hanging out after our plate we removed. We have been to many restaurants since we arrived here and this is the first with this issue. It got even worse once our food arrived. Very irritating. Service was just ok. We were here at a weird time because we are very jet lagged and trying to get on the time zone (needed dinner early). The staff were having their dinner so we felt a bit of a nuisance.

The food absolutely delivered. The tomahawk steak was impressive -- perfectly cooked, beautifully presented, and full of rich flavor. The NY sirloin was just as good: tender, well-seasoned, and cooked exactly as ordered. This is clearly a grill that takes its steaks seriously. The burgers were also a hit and an easy win for the kids. Despite how busy it was, service remained polished, attentive, and efficient, and the energy of the room felt lively without being overwhelming.

For starters the last time, we had the Cheese Sticks in deep fried won ton wrappers (ok not something you would easily find in Bangkok, and not what I picked). I selected the Thai Sweet Spare Ribs. Tasty! Curries are awesome and I especially like Kaeng Daeng (red curry), but the Kaeng Peneang (Penang curry) and Kaeng Kheaw Waan (green curry) are so flavorful as well. Do not go overboard on the spice level when asked LOL. Pad Kee Mao (drunken noodles) is also a go-to dish. You probably can't go wrong anything on the menu.
