Editorial Review for The Happy Sumo Sushi Bar and Restaurant – by Citysearch Editors
The Scene
The chic dining room is inviting, with sunny walls, large windows, chenille banquettes and colorful earthenware plates. Sit at the sushi bar and watch the chefs, or tuck into a secluded booth--perfect for a romantic date. Service is friendly.
The Food
Start off with a bowl of flavorful miso soup then dive right into the sushi menu. About 20 varieties of nigiri sushi are offered (two bite-sized pieces of fish, each served on rice) in addition to the maki (rolls cut into six or eight pieces). A number of specialty rolls are standouts, including the Wasatch roll (spicy salmon, yellowtail, cucumbers and flying fish eggs) and the Dragon roll (crab and avocado topped with spicy sauce and flying fish eggs).

I went to the Happy Sumo expecting the best, and was not disappointed! The service was awesome, the sushi to die for, and the atmosphere was cool enough for me to have a good time. The only downer was the hostess. She was short and rude (and what was up with the hair, anyway?) Besides that, it was wonderful, and I will definitely be back. Thank you Happy Sumo!!
Pros: Great service, awesome sushi!
Cons: Grumpy hostess

Went there over the weekend and enjoyed a nice spot on the patio. Our waitress was so nice and helpful and was really attentive to us during our whole meal. We asked for a recommendation and tried the Rock Shrimp Roll and we loved it! The whole meal was great, we will be returning again soon.
