I have this family that comes in every morning for coffee and they recommended me to try their job out. Went with the girls for our monthly dinner. Loved the personal atmosphere with our own corner room. Of course loved having my friend/customer, Cheif Robert cook for us. Food was amazing and cooked well. Definitely recommend.
This is one of the best Japanese Steak Houses I have ever been to! The showmanship of the cook, the service itself, the prices, and the quality of the food were beyond superb! If you are in the area, definitely stop in and give them a go, they'll give you a show! Thanks, Sumo for an all-around great experience.
We had an incredible dining experience! The food (Daily Special - Beef, Chicken & Shrimp) was absolutely delicious and expertly seasoned, making every bite a delight. Our server was attentive and made sure we never ran low on sauces or drinks. The highlight of the night was definitely the hibachi chef, who not only cooked our meal to perfection but also entertained us with his impressive skills and fun tricks. We can't wait to return for another unforgettable meal! Highly recommend!
