Sumo sushi & Hibachi

Sumo Sushi & Hibachi, a recent addition to the downtown dining scene, offers a fresh, clean take on Japanese cuisine. The minimalist decor and quiet, focused atmosphere put the food front and center, a deliberate choice by the chef that pays off in spades. The dishes was fresh and firm, with a clean, slightly briny taste of the ocean. The texture was melt-in-your-mouth tender—not chewy, as can be the case with lesser quality fish. A light dip in the provided soy sauce and a whisper of wasabi was all it needed to be transcendent. This place delivers an exceptional and thoughtful sushi experience, proving that simple doesn't mean boring. The high-quality ingredients and expert technique are evident in every bite. It's a must-visit for serious sushi lovers and those looking to graduate from

Been here 5 times, every time has been excellent. They're quick, friendly, and everything I've had is delicious.

This was my first order from here and it was to-go so I can’t speak on the dining-in experience. My Crunchy Roll was fresh and was really good! I also ordered a small steak bowl and a side of veggies, which were the perfect portion size for me. I plan to return to try other items on the menu.

I really enjoyed the food and locale. It was hidden as we drove by and stopped in for an unplanned visit. We were pleasantly surprised a d will definitely come back!

This is a great new addition to the Irmo area! I ordered the hibachi steak express plate and pork dumplings. Both were amazing! It only took about 5-10 minutes to get my food. The dumplings were hot and fresh and the steak was cooked well. I'll have to try the sushi next time! Great to eat in or order for pickup/delivery.
