Sumi Sushi Menu

Stepping into Sumi Sushi, my appetite was instantly sparked by their lineup of appetizers—each one a delightful teaser before the main act. First up: Freaky Edamame. Don’t let the name fool you—these aren’t your average shelled soybeans. Lightly tossed in garlic and chili flakes, they offer a subtle kick with every pop, setting a playful tone from the very first bite.

Moving on to the Don Tons, these crisp-fried wonton bundles are a revelation. Each golden little pouch holds a succulent mix of seasoned shrimp and pork, and when dipped into the accompanying sweet chili sauce, the blend of textures—crunchy shell giving way to tender filling—is nothing short of addictive.

Then came the Mussels, served in a fragrant, buttery broth that’s been infused with sake and aromatics. Steaming hot, these plump mollusks practically melt in your mouth, and the broth? I found myself mopping it up with a wedge of toasted bread—no drop went to waste.

That comforting warmth was followed by the Miso Happy Soup, which lives up to its name. The broth is luxuriously rich, threaded with silky tofu squares and floating scallions that add a fresh, zesty lift. It’s a gentle yet flavorful palate cleanser, setting a serene tone before the flavors intensify later on.

Finally, the Gyoza swept in as the crowd-pleaser. Each pan-seared dumpling boasts a crisp, golden bottom and a chewy, steamed top—encasing a savory filling of ground pork, cabbage, and aromatics. Dipped in soy-vinegar-ginger sauce, they strike the perfect balance: succulent, savory, slightly sweet—utterly satisfying.

In summary, Sumi Sushi’s appetizer lineup is a masterclass in flavor variety and texture. Whether you're craving a spicy start (hello, edamame), something rich and comforting (mussels or miso), or a bite-sized umami bomb (Don Tons, gyoza), this menu delivers with style and substance. A sensational beginning to any sushi experience.
