" If you’re craving sushi, The Happy Sumo should be on your list! They offer a lot of options and everything we've tried has been hit-or-miss. Some rolls are fantastic, and others are forgettable. Still, the freshness is usually on point. The only downside was our server seemed a bit overwhelmed, thus the service took longer than expected. Great ambiance, though! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a delightful experience at The Happy Sumo last week! The cozy atmosphere really set the mood. The sushi was fresh, and I particularly enjoyed the teriyaki chicken roll. Our server was friendly and made our experience all the better. I'll definitely be returning for more delicious sushi in the very near future! " (*Curated Review*)

" What a gem! The Happy Sumo has become my go-to sushi place. The rolls are not only beautiful but incredibly fresh. You can taste the quality of the ingredients. The service was attentive and pleasant, making the entire experience enjoyable. I particularly loved the Dragon Roll, and I can't wait to try more of their specials. This is definitely a place I want to return to regularly. " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited The Happy Sumo for the first time last week. Honestly, I was expecting a bit more. The sushi was decent but didn’t blow me away. The atmosphere is nice, but I found the service to be a bit slower than I would have liked. Although the Miso Soup was quite good and comforting. I might give it another try, hoping for a better experience next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had planned to surprise my wife with a nice dinner, and The Happy Sumo did not disappoint. We were seated quickly, and our server was both professional and friendly. We tried several sushi rolls, including the Surf and Turf and Lobster Roll, and both were exquisite! The presentation was spot on, and the flavors were unique. We even got some sake, which was a perfect complement. Highly recommend for a nice evening out! " (*Curated Review*)

" The Happy Sumo has a wonderfully diverse menu but be cautious with some of the specialty rolls, as I found a couple to be more gimmicky than tasty. The ambiance was nice, yet the service felt a bit lackluster during peak times. I enjoyed several rolls, and the tempura was a standout. I may give it another shot! The flavors have potential. " (*Curated Review*)

" Such a lovely place for sushi. Everything is so fresh and tasty! I loved their Tuna Tataki and can’t wait to try their specialty rolls on my next visit. The vibe is chill with friendly staff who are attentive. Just a great place to enjoy a meal with friends or family. " (*Curated Review*)
