Sumo Teriyaki: Reviews & Ratings

I stopped in on a whim and I’m so glad that I did. I got a large, spicy chicken and it was delicious! This was probably the most tender and moist chicken teriyaki that I’ve ever had! The rice had a little cheese on it and was really good as well. I will definitely be back to try something else!

This place was a great find! I’m picky on teriyaki and hard to please but everything we tried was great! We saw the rating on google and thought we’d see if it lived up to its rating and it did - and their food / health department rating was excellent as well! We tried the beef and broccoli and the chicken katsu - great flavors and big portions!

I’ve tried a lot of teriyaki spots around Greater Seattle, but this place won me over on the very first visit! The owner is super friendly and polite, the food looks amazing, and everything tastes incredible. Definitely a 5-star spot!

I got the spicy chicken teriyaki bowl. Different from usual teriyaki spots, the rice had a bit of cheese on top and came with some cooked broccoli which i love. The quality of the chicken is fantastic. Probably going to be trying the chicken sandwich next!

Food is very good. The classic teryaki chicken comes with cheese over the rice. It's such a delecious thing to add to this dish. The egg rolls are also very tasty. The regular portion of food can feed two people easily. The dining room is not very cozy, and there are no garbage cans. Recommend doing takeout! There really is not a lot of service. When you enter the restaurant, you order on a screen and have hardly any interaction with any employees.

Service was great and food came out quickly for our group of five. Unaware of closing time, we stayed late and received no hassle. We didn’t feel rushed at all. We saw the chicken being cut after we placed our order. Fresh, hot, and delicious. Orange chicken had a crunch to it despite being covered in sauce, which we all enjoyed. Recommend!

I think the ownership has changed recently and honestly, the food tastes even better now! The chicken is perfectly grilled, the teriyaki sauce is richer and more flavorful, and the portions are still huge. Everything feels fresher and more balanced than before. The new team seems to be doing an amazing job. Definitely my favorite teriyaki spot around!
