Sumo Sushi in Albuquerque - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

The best Sushi for us, we are traveling from germany

I ordered the Ten Don rice bowl and the combo plate which comes with miso soup. The combo had no miso soup. They must have just poured it in my rice bowl, it was soggy and tasted like miso and the bottom of the bag was filled with more juice. Was I supposed to drink the soup out of the plastic bag? Messy and very unimpressive. I also waited 45 min. for my to go order.

Still my favorite sushi place including my family, after 10 years plus!! ❤️

Fantastic first visit to this sushi place, will definitely return. A great selection of interesting sushi. We were there for Saturday night and it wasn't busy. I would recommend this place to someone who is looking to try sushi or to someone that has tried it before.

The house sake was not good. Food was expensive

Sushi is fantastic. Dim sum is fantastic. They have both sushi's on one side. Dim sum is on the other side open from 11 to 2 Friday's 5 to 9. Sushi sushi is open in the evenings.They're closed on sunday and monday

Rudest staff I’ve ever seen in my life! 100 percent would stay away from this place! Was thinking about dining but when I came inside I was greeted by what appeared to be either an overworked manager or something, I can’t be for certain what was going on but it seemed like whatever was going on at home was brought to the workplace and transferred to the experience, needless to say I walked out ! If you are okay with that kind of service I’d recommend but I’m not okay with that, I do recommend going next door those guys at the shop are amazing and really nice

The udon broth didn't taste like dashi. Sushi was sloppily made. Pretty expensive for lunch and the food tasted ok. Not worth it.

Pretty good sushi. Recommend don't go or even ask for a table if it is busy. Sumo Sushi is understaffed and unable to handle busy periods where the wait staff will be surly and Inattentive.

Best Dim Sum in Albuquerque! Enjoy when your not in a hurry. Service was very slow. That needs to be corrected! In my eyes, the food more than makes up for it!

The menu and rolls are bland and basic. They don't have egg rolls and the sashimi was ice cold almost frozen my bf didn't eat it. The server was nice and the place was clean and quiet. The food was just meh. Won't be coming back

I was with a party of four at 1130am on a Saturday. I did not know what to expect from this restaurant or the experience, but I was pleasantly surprised. We were at the restaurant for the Dim Sum brunch. Collectively, we shared nearly 20 small plates of food. All of the food was well-prepared and flavorful. Two in my party had steamed buns with pork and stated that they were the best buns in Albuquerque. I enjoyed the rice with spicy pork, my favorite dish of the brunch. One in my party requested the sesame balls with plum filling for dessert. I had one, and it was amazing! The server did a fantastic job bringing the brunch cart around over and over again for our party. I had iced tea, but two in my party had hot tea, and all the beverages were excellent. I have not eaten the sushi, but I highly recommend this restaurant for the dim sum brunch.

I have loved this place for years! It is consistently awesome.

My family has been coming to Amerasia since it first opened a really long time ago. The people behind this delicious food are amazing and my heart goes out to them ❤️the love in the food is what makes this place the best.

Best dim sum I've ever had. I love this place. So thankful to have had this place as part of my childhood ❤️

Sushi maker guy talks too much instead of making the sushi. Shouldn’t have to wait so long for the order when they’re not busy, and you can watch him stand and talk and not fill the orders. The rest of the staff was great, everyone was friendly.

Five stars across the board. Loyal for year.

Family went here for the first time, food was excellent and very tasty, staff was friendly and attentive.

420 friends that’s all I need to say!

I love their dim sum it’s heaven and it’s right next to my favorite dispensary ; ).

Came here for their Friday night dimsum serves from 5.30 pm to 8.30 pm..Super duper slow service, we waited for 45 mins to get 4 plates of dimsum served, another 30 mins or more to get 2 more plates..Food quality was terrible, the worst dimsum that I have ever had. $4 per plate for 3 pieces of dumplings or a plate of 2 buns..not worth the money at all. Aweful food! So disappointed! I do not recommend this place. Try other dimsum places in town.

First time visiting today, so I was a little confused about ordering from the menu since there was no menu for the dim sum, and there was only limited sushi rolls availabie, as the sushi bar seemed to be closed. However, the dim sum tray was brought out and provided many options to enjoy. I also ordered a teriyaki salmon plate with came with a fresh leaf salad as well as a decent serving of white rice, so by the time I strolled out of the restaurant, I was well fed, happy. I didn’t stop to take many pictures but I was pleased with this find and definitely will be back.

Sumo Sushi is hands down one of the best sushi spots in town! My wife and I love coming here for their delicious sushi rolls and dim sum, which never disappoint. The service is always top-notch, with friendly and attentive staff who make us feel welcome every time we visit. We especially love their signature rolls like the Sumo roll and the Spider roll, which are always fresh and flavorful. And let's not forget about their great selection of sake and imported beers that perfectly complement their sushi offerings. We highly recommend Sumo Sushi to anyone looking for delicious sushi and dim sum in a welcoming atmosphere with great service.

The best variety of sushi in a cozy and comfortable atmosphere!

I cannot tell you how fantastic the food, staff, and ownership is at this establishment, because it is unbelievable!! Please, if you do anything great in your life, or if you wanted to, do this… GO TO SUMO!!!

They are mean and rude...and treat their customers awful

Horrible customer service don't go here save your money...ever since the daughters took over it has gone downhill....

Great staff; food was yummy. Anything else overshadowed by the above.

We saw this place late Saturday night while driving around for some food. We like just to drive rather than search. It just popped out, and there were several cars parked in front. This is usually a good sign. The hostess/waitress was friendly and provided excellent service. The rolls were delicious and fresh, and the chef made everything in front and was also very friendly. I had the 46-piece sashimi plate, and all the fish was fresh and delicious. Great place for good sushi

Good sushi and cheers to the chef!

Best sushi we have ever had! And we traveled all around the country. Must try the Chef's hot sauce! It brings everything to life!

My wife and I have found a great place for our Sushi craving easy location to drive to

Came in and sat at table and waited and waited and waited....finally got fed up waiting so we left.

This place isn’t great. Bad service, food was bad, beer pours were bad. Don’t waste your money.

Came here for lunch on a Friday. I was seated quickly in the Dim-Sun side and the cart came around very quick. I had several options from the cart and they were all good but the only great dumpling I had was the Pork and Cabbage with Ginger. On the other hand, The Firecracker Roll was absolute perfection. The spice was perfect, the right amount of crunch, and it was presented so well I almost did not want to eat it. The service was good and the restaurant was very clean. If you are downtown looking for some real Asian food, definitely give Amerasia a try.

Service was awful. We stood at the door for at least 10 minutes waiting to be seated only to find out it was "seat yourself." A couple of servers walked past us several times before offering any help. Once seated, we got water within about 15 minutes. We thought we'd get a couple sushi rolls while we were waiting for the Dim Sum cart to come by but didn't get menus and were rushed to make up our mind. Food was not like any Dim Sum I've ever seen before. I come from a city with a very rich Asian influence and ate Dim Sum a couple times per week. We tried it but it wasn't good. We went through a drive through after leaving this place.

Food was sweet not fish taste at all

Having grown up enjoying dim sum between Philadelphia and DC's chinatowns, I can say that whatever dumplings we were served were astoundingly NOT dimsum. There were no varieties of anything offered, only 6 different kinds of dumplings/potstickers/mandoo mostly filled with rice. No rice noodle stuffed with shrimp, no black bean clams and pork ribs, no gai lan with oyster sauce, NOTHING traditionally served as dim sum was being offered. Had this restaurant lauded itself a dumpling bar, I would understand, but even then, it was clear that the 8 or so open-plated and stale/dry dumplings had been prepared the day or perhaps days prior to being presented to us as so-called dim sum. My husband had been looking forward to his birthday dim sum experience and it was underwhelming and disappointing to say the least. This restaurant is doing a disservice to anyone in the ABQ metro area who is looking for a true dim sum experience. Ming Dynasty is the closest to the level of dim sum I've grown up having. Go there instead. SIDE NOTE: the lone server did her best with a smile though she was seemingly the only staff there besides the kitchen. She dealt with a quickly filling dining room with courtesy and grace. PS, for pictures of what a true dim sum should look like, check out the pictures of China Garden Han Gong in Bethesda, MD.

Bar none the finest, most consistent sashimi in Albuquerque.

I ordered a calamari roll and a Philadelphia roll. The Philadelphia rollll was the better of the two.

Tried to eat here for lunch. It wasn’t busy at all, but our sever didn’t check on us. We waited so long to order that we finally checked to see if someone could help. The server’s response was rude. When she continued to be rude when we ask a question about a menu item, we left. Their food might be good but the service sucks.

The restaurant wasn’t busy at all, but we sat at our table for about 15 minutes. Then, when I got up to see if we could order, the waitress was incredibly rude to me. So, I can’t tell you if the food is any good, because I couldn’t get past the terrible service. We decided to leave and go elsewhere. I will never come back and wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone, especially after seeing the replies the establishment has given to others who have left negative reviews. Save your time and go elsewhere.

Overall amazing service great food, very clean and friendly. Definitely would go again 100%

This is a great dim sum/ sushi place! Loved the Sumo Roll. They have a Sexy Roll that has raw fish and krab salad wrapped in cucumber. Very nice for low carb eaters. The bean bao was good and the potstickers with pork and ginger were delicious. I highly recommend this restaurant.

We went in here for a quick bite, and it was delicious! The dumplings were enjoyed by the whole table and the Katsudon was awesome! I enjoyed the look of the caterpillar roll on the menu, very cute. 🥰

Good dim sum and Sushi. Nice house made dim sum and the sushi was fresh!

Super good food. Great staff. I would highly recommend.

Terrible, fishy and bitter sushi that I couldn’t finish that was terribly overpriced. Additionally, the staff were incredibly rude (rolling their eyes and making curt comments) and kept us waiting for over an hour. The dim sum was also horrifyingly expensive (and bland) and we were never told the price. Avoid at all costs!

Horrible service and even worse food. Not worth anybody’s money. Edit: Considering I did not order soup, the reply from this restaurant is even more insulting. They should know for sure what I ordered before making an outright claim. Extremely rude.

This was are 1st time trying Sumo sushi and let me say we will definitely be lifetime customers! We ordered the Golden California roll, a regular California roll, and the teriyaki chicken all of it was absolutely delicious and great $$ 👌😋

Def cook with MSG. Pins and needles in my jaw. Glands swollen. Just overall, blah. No flavor if it wasn’t for the chili paste and soy sauce. Turn this building into something cool it’s such a waste of good space. Sorry to be mean but come on. Half decent service tho.

Worst Dim Sum and Sushi I have ever had in a long time. I was so disappointed with this place as I tried it for the 1st time yesterday. There were two waiters one for sushi and dim sum, both friendly but rarely around. Dim sum came out on open plates on a cart, dried out and tasteless. Dim Sum should come in a heated, closed cart. Sushi was not fresh at all. That chef should be horrified by what he served us and I eat sushi a lot! We left at least half of it, couldn't stomach it and felt nauseous after. Luckily we didn't get food poisoning. I would never recommend this place to anyone

Absolutely fantastic Dim-Sum and sushi!! It all was full of flavor and fresh. We will be back for more. Customer service was excellent and staff took care of us without a complaint. Could not have had a better experience. 10/10 would recommend.

Wow...first time here and I was really surprised with the sushi. The fish was fresh, wonderful flavors. We also did the dim sum which was amazing as well. Everything is very tasty, we will go back!

I have been eating at Amerasia and Sumo for over 20 years because they are worth the wait! The dim sum is better than places in China town! I crave their beefy garlic, chicken peanut, and sesame balls to name a few! Great place to meet friends!

Always good food and a great place to eat.

Worst experience ever. I used to come here often before the pandemic and loved it. I was craving it today and decided to come in. The service was horrible, Maybe because it was just one and not a big party. Waited forever for the food to come out, the waitress did not bring 2 of the items that I had order. No apologies at all. Food was not what it used to be even remotely. Will NEVER be back and would not recommend at all. Too bad! It used to be a very good place.

I dig it. Great food, wonderful service and very well prices! We will be regulars!

The food was fresh and very good, I always enjoy a place that makes a good spider roll. Service was great and the atmosphere is welcoming and fun.

Wonderful atmosphere, courtesy staff and fantastic food!!

Covid hit lots of restaurants hard and some had to cut back on hours, people and even quality. I can honestly say that Sumo is as good as it ever has been! Can't wait to go back!

Excellent service and great food! What more could you ask for??

Simply yummy sushi, fast service and clean.

Super great, local place. Their dim sum is amazing. We just got standard sushi and it was also fab. Great service, and affordably priced!

This place is fantastic! Never had sushi before and could not have asked for a better experience. Everything was delicious, I'm sure I'll be back again.

Awesome people... Very friendly.

The food is excellent and the service is super warm and friendly! We ordered the special combination and the nigiri was so tasty! This place truly is a gem and deserves our support

Always amazing! Great food, great customer service. The Hot Night Roll is our favorite.

The sushi is still some of the best in town! Need to make it a point to go more often!

Very good food even better service must try !!!!!!

Amazing customer service and amazing food!! First time there was a great experience!! Definitely recommended!

I've tried most of the sushi places in town and Sumo is, hands-down, the best. The quality paired with the attentive and friendly staff made my experience here excellent. Will definitely be back.

Very nice people and great food. Dim sum was perfect. Due to pandemic I was served on the very nice patio. The waiter and ownership were all amazing.

We've been loyal fans of Amerasia for many, many years. The quality of the dim sum has endured despite challenges faced by the family-owners. Please support this local gem and enjoy a wonderful meal! Every item on the menu is great - nothing to recommend over anything else... get one of everything!!

The sushi and dim sum here are both amazing. The staff is super friendly and really nice. You have to try it!

Debido a Covid Pandamic, mi esposa y yo pedimos nuestro sushi para llevar. El salmón y el atún son viejos. Algunos de sus panecillos no tienen ningún sabor. Es uno de mis peores sushi. Traer caro está bien si sabe bien, pero la calidad de la comida es simplemente horrible.

I just happened by this sushi joint downtown... it's now one of my favorites.

Excellent sushi wonderful staff nice place e to have dinner and enjoy your friends

Open for lunch and dinner again. All precautions being followed. Best dim sum in Albuquerque!

¿Por qué Marty Malbec obtiene un 2 fer en su crítica negativa? No todos podemos ir a S. F. por Dim Sum todos los días. Sin embargo, he tenido Dim Sum allí y en Boston y Nueva York. He comido en Amerasia desde los años ochenta, muchas veces y es bastante auténtico. Incluso me encontré con Alice Cooper allí una vez. Se llena de abogados alrededor de la hora del almuerzo. Así que no seas cobarde si acaparan toda la comida; eso es lo que hacen. Hemos tratado de apoyarlos semanalmente a través de la propaganda de la corona. Buena suerte a Hyang Mi, espero que estés ahí cuando ganemos la pelea.

Wow, super good. I have to say I was impressed. I’ve been wanting to come here for a while and I used to live walking distance to it. Must try, I don’t think you’re going to be dissatisfied. My go-to sushi spot now.

We love this place! The food is always excellent and we have been eating at Amerasia since they were at the Cornell location.

Absolutely delicious, wonderful staff, just yumm

We went here and had some amazing sushi and good laughs with the sushi chef, Ya I think was his name. Anyways the food was great and he was awesome! Can't wait to go for dim sum 😊

Super fresh sushi and dim sum in a comfy, unpretentious space ... with some unique and interesting menu offerings. Definitely worth discovering!

I'm bias as the owner is a family friend but personally believe they have some of the best Sushi around, Sumo Sushi side. The pork buns are great too.

Had a fantastic experience in here with my son. The food was served rapidly and the service is just fantastic. Prices are fair.

After eating sushi in countless restaurants all over the country, I can definitely say that not all sushi is created equal. I can also say that for being in the southwest where green chili is king, finding a superb sushi roll isn't always the easiest task. Lucky for us we have a go-to sushi restaurant right here in Albuquerque! The presentation was excellent, the service was fantastic, and the food was delicious. The only thing that we mentioned that was slightly different than we are used to, was the yakisoba. We felt it was prepared in a Chinese dish style vs a traditional Japanese yakisoba. But trust me Sumo Sushi is truly a delightful all around dining experience.

Ive been eating here since they were located in a tiny living room off of Lead. Not authentic Chinese dim sum but much better in my opinion. They come around with piping hot plates of delicious selections. You don't have to worry about cost as every plate is the same price...$3.50 I think. This family run restaurant is one my my favorite places in town. Give them a try I promise you wont be disappointed!

I love Amer Asia. Have only eaten the dim sum, not the sushi. Excellent choice of wide variety of dim sum, both vegetarian offerings and regular. Have been going to Amerasia when they used to be on Cornell in University area....now downtown off 3rd Street. Quality just the same, main staff just the same. Sichuan Salad, scallion noodles...

AmerAsia has been a family tradition for us since 1981. Can't find a better place for lunch!

Primero, la comida: apenas es dim sum. Incluso la desesperación no puede hacer que ningún asiático crea lo que está viendo. El Bao fue lo peor que he tenido en mi vida. Tienen variaciones de dim sum al vapor que no es auténtico. Sospecho que es vagamente mongol. Servicio: están haciendo todo lo posible pero la cocina no puede seguir el ritmo. Sacarán un carrito y la mesa más cercana a la cocina tomará toda la comida. Esperé 40 minutos para conseguir algo de comer. Sólo. no lo hagas ir. Esto no es dim sum.

Fresh dim sum was filling and delish. Colleague got udon soup and spicy tuna roll. Looked good as well.

This place is one of my favorites. Definitely underrated

Es un lugar conveniente porque está justo al lado de todos los juzgados en Albuquerque. La comida suele ser buena, aunque a veces es lenta si está llena a la hora del almuerzo.

I've been a loyal customer for over 30 years. It's always been great!

Great place. Very tasty food. This place is my happy place

Amazing sushi and great conversation, Ahh is awesome!

Best sushi in Albuquerque, by far. Try the Sexy Roll! It’s amazing! Great atmosphere and staff, too.

The best Dim Sum in Albuquerque.
