It was the best dinner choice we could have made to celebrate our 9 Yr Wedding Anniversary. The last time we stopped by was when it was Benihana at least 10 yrs ago. Our cook was a blast & made our experience fun. We're going back in 2 weeks to take the whole family along for my wife's birthday. Cook Matt Vader is the guy to go see. Service was all around top notch. Thank you, everyone at Sumo...especially Jasmine.

This was my first experience at this type of restaurant and it was fabulous!! Great entertainment, perfect food, drinks were nice and strong, the entire family was happy!! Not something I'll do on a regular basis due to the cost but worth it for a special occasion. I highly recommend!!

Took my husband and sons for my husband's birthday. Devin was our chef and he was Awesome! Our server, who I didn't catch the name, was very kind and attentive. She was quick to serve us with refills and anything we needed. Food was delicious. Atmosphere was relaxing. Would recommend to everyone to visit.

We went on 9/16/18 as a celebration dinner for my daughter’s 21st birthday. We’ve never been before and thought it was a wonderful meal and an experience that everyone enjoyed, not just the birthday girl. Request Tommy, I understand he is one of the top showman chefs they have and he had us engaged and entertained through every course. The food was abundant and delicious, the sauces were unexpectedly tasty. Even my picky eater granddaughter loved it. Very entertaining and a great time for everyone.

Everything is great but their wait time is ridiculous. Took us two hours to eat. Prices are so high I mean its worth it but I just hate the fact that its so much food for one person and its not like you can say I'll just share with my kids because they will still charge you a $12 sitting fee for each person. Only reason I don't give it a five. But if you have time and $ then its well worth it. Food is good! By the way request Chef Vader he's so funny.

We had a blast celebrating my father-in-law's birthday! Our chef was very personal and funny. He asked us a lot of questions and engaged us in friendly conversation. The food was delicious and generous portion sizes. We had a lot to take home with us. I definitely recommend the vegetable fried rice. Not only was it fun to watch being cooked but it was also some of the best fried rice I've had. Our chef even made extra scrambled eggs for our little one when she told him she liked them. Be sure to make a reservation ahead of time. Our chef told us there's usually 200-400 reservations made on a Saturday night. We will definitely be back!

I highly recommend Sumo Japanese Steakhouse, the sushi is top quality but priced like HEB. They have a fully stocked bar so if that's your preference you can always get a good drink there plus they have multiple TVs to catch your favorite sporting event. Now as for the Hibachi Grill the chefs are top-notch the food always tastes good and if you don't think it's right they will fix it! But you always have to remember that this place gets extremely busy on weekends which can slow down service and if you don't have a reservation you can wait an hour or more for a Table.

Food was great SERVICE WAS HORRIBLE (getting drinks, soups, bill, etc.) not the chief who cooked; he was great! Look at this fishy stuff with the tab.... handed me my bill for two people about $94 and showed the correct for a tip (before tax) then they ran the card and shows the tip amount after tax..... anyways there is a better place by 281/1604 that was off the wall and half the price! This place is a 50/50 on a recommendation. Very very very pricey.

Ate here and loved this place, ordered all kinds of food ordered the rice with extra butter, ordered steak and shrimp and the cook was fabulous and listened to everything we told him! Ordered lobster and chicken also! The California Rolls are to die for! Anything that you order here is great and delicious and all fresh!!Pricey but great for birthday parties!
