We love that there is a Sumo Dog in Indio. The staff is friendly and helpful. They have gluten free buns which allows me to enjoy a gourmet hotdog. Some people complain about the price, but this is a gourmet hotdog, not a AM/PM or 7/11 hotdog. You get what you pay for, and you pay for a delicious gourmet hotdog. I highly recommend sumo dog. We will be eating there quite often. read more

Sumo Dog - Asian Fusion Near Me - Indio, California

Salutations, y'all. On a road trip recently, I had Sumo Dog for the first time! Now...I gotta preface this with the fact that I am NOT a hot dog guy. I am, however, a fan of innovation or novelty. And I was not disappointed in that regard. I was also ecstatic that they offer burritos, so that's what I ordered: a Sumo burrito. It's a breakfast burrito stuffed to the brim with eggs, hot dogs, tater tots, a sort of spicy sauce, cheese, and jalapenos! Good ingredient list for sure. It was wrapped well, and the fillings worked together pretty well too! The only thing is, that I wasn't really able to get behind the idea of hot dogs in a breakfast burrito. I think that's a me problem, because the rest of the burrito was, by all accounts, quite tasty! I also ordered a separate side of tater tots, and, while I'm sure its nothing to write home about, I really enjoyed it! What's there to hate about some freshly fried crunchy tots? If you're a hot dog person, you definitely should come here and get a taste of this fantastic fusion! The Japanese - American fusion pipeline, much like baseball, has found a stronghold in food, too! read more

Another great visit at sumo Dog. This time I got the BACON BANH MI. Bacon Wrapped Dog, Pickled Daikon & Carrot Slaw, Cucumber, Lime, Jalapeño. Spicy Mayo, Furikake, Cilantro. And Rice Tots. So good. I will say I didn't love the rice tots as much as I hoped. The sauce saved them. Next time I'll get the tater tots. Service was very quick, and very friendly. The place is very clean including the bathrooms. I'll be back. read more

The food here is delicious and the service is wonderful! The prices are very fair and the hotdog as well as the sides were very tasty. The food is made to order quickly, everything was fresh and piping hot. Great place for a casual winter dinner, ideal for families with children as well. read more

Overall great experience. Location was clean. Staff was friendly and helpful as it was our first time. Food was good however very unique flavor combinations on the dogs. Because each dog does have a combination of sauces I would recommend asking for light sauce. We did like the Godzilla however the ben did get soggy quite fast. We would definitely go back to try the others. read more

This place has been on my list for the longest time. Let me tell you that it didn't disappoint! This is an Asian fusion hot dog & burger place. They have so many different options and great deals throughout the week. I tried the sumo chili dog and tater tots, it was all so tasty & the combination of flavors was perfect! The only complaint I have is that the beef frank was a little too salty for my liking and it took a little away from all of the other flavors. Other than that, customer service was great and they were very helpful and patient about questions we had. It's a fun little adventure if you want to try something new & fun! Great food, great location. read more

Loved mine- got the katsu chicken and no roll. I wanted something that had veggies and chicken. It had a nice flavor. My hubs got the miso hot dog and felt like the flavor combo was ok. I liked the rice tots, unique twist. Clean bathrooms. One free refill which I appreciate. The staff was kind and hard working. read more

So refreshingly different! All their dogs are all beef. Had their Friday special: any 4 dogs (except Godzilla dog), 4 sides, and 4 drinks $39.99 Tried the Sumo dog, Miso katsu, Bacon Bahnmi, & Sumo Chili Cheese dogs. All had their own unique bursting flavors. The tots are a must! The service was great, quick, and they made great recommendations. The ambience definitely takes you back to a different time zone and the artwork of the Ferris wheel inside was pretty cool. read more

I stopped by Sumo Dog tonight looking for something different, and I'm glad I did. It's a refreshing change from the typical fast-food burger or taco. The food was high quality, made fresh, and the Japanese-inspired twist on a classic hot dog really works. I had the Sumo Chili Dog with regular tots, and everything was delicious. The flavors were unique without being over the top, and you can tell they use quality ingredients. What impressed me just as much as the food was the staff. Everyone was extremely friendly, welcoming, and genuinely seemed to care that we had a good experience. If you're looking for something different that's well worth trying, I'd definitely recommend giving Sumo Dog a shot. It's great to have a unique local restaurant like this in the Coachella Valley. I'll definitely be back to try more of the menu! read more

It was very delicious and unique! My son loved the hotdogs and the rice tots. We tried the chili cheese and sumo dog. Service was great - they were very friendly! read more

First time at this location and we are so glad we stopped by. We were looking for something other than the regular fast food places and this was an excellent choice... service was prompt and friendly even though there were only 2 employees , they did a great job. The food was excellent. I had the Godzilla Dog and my wife had the chile cheese dog... tater tots were great, and the buns were toasted perfectly. To drink we had the Lemon grass lemonade and we topped our meal off with a mango mochi... the place was clean and atmosphere was pleasant... we'll definitely be back... read more

Takes forever to give me my order, it's like if the food is coming from Japan itself so that's why I am writing today because they take millenniums to give me my food in person or drive through, I am only giving two starts because I feel bad for giving one read more

Sumo Dog - Asian Fusion Near Me - Indio, California

I was so excited to try out but not what I have expected. I paid $17+ tax for a long hotdog that looked like it was topped off with cabbage, sliced seaweed, green chilli/red chilli and other garnishes on it. They call it the Godzilla sumo dog. I wanted to try it out and see but it ain't worth $17+ honestly. The service was quick and customer service wise was great. Ambiance, not too shabby. But food wise, idk -_- Too expensive but was aight to try out. At least now I know. Lol try and lower down the prizes !!!!! read more

Sumo Dog - Bahn mi - Asian Fusion Near Me - Indio, California

Was excited to try something new in the valley but was kind of disappointed. I think it mostly had to do with the price for the product- with it being a hotdog prices per hot dog should NOT be over $10 each for a compiled casing of random meats no matter what toppings you put on it. However the only thing to make up for this was the amazing staff. They were super friendly. read more

We went to Sumo Dog this evening due to the special signs i had seen when i drove by the other day. Signs really do work. went in about 5 and the restaurant was quiet and we were the only ones there. the lady takinig our order was very. helpful as i said we had never been. got our order complete and was ready very quick. the food was delicious and we will go back. restaurant was spotlessly clean and looked wonderful. read more

Monday deal is best. 2 dogs,tots, 2 drinks $11 Dog was good, more like a sausage. Dog could have been hotter and Bun could have been a little warmer or toasted. I'll be back -on a Monday. read more

Not gonna lie. This was pretty BAD. Ordered a simple chili cheese dog and tater tots. And ugh never again man. The chilli looked nasty af. They were so stingy with the cheese so it looked like dry orange red meat. No good flavor or good taste. Oh and the tots were salty ! Save your money. Don't waste it here. read more

I love this place! I tried it twice and both dogs were excellent, the CHICAGO DOG and GODZILLA exceeded all expectations. The server was extra friendly too! read more

I know this new location but only 1 choice for burger .I felt the hot dog had no crunch and bun felt and tasted stale I also was disappointed I ordered a side of chili with cheese but I'm used to the ratio is more chili than cheese sauce so all in all disappointed but it was a change. I also had to go order no napkins or utensils so maybe give them another week to work out the kinks read more

First time checking out Sumo Dog and was happy we tried it out. The food was good. We had a sumo dog w/ sushi rice tots and a plain dog with tots. Make it a combo for the side and a drink. The service was fast and staff were friendly. The restaurant has a cool vibe with the decor and designs on the walls. I did see lower prices on my iPhone map website for location ($1-2 less and two beers)-is different than menu at location (little higher and no beer yet)-just fyi. Recommend trying it out if you haven't already. read more

first time trying sumo dog; not my thing; ordered the bacon banh mi; doesnt taste anything like banh mi; will not order again;

My friends and I came to this Sumo Dog last night from tennis. We have heard of sumo dog and they actually have a pop up sumo dog inside the tennis tournaments. But the ambience and experience here at this Sumo was/is outstanding. The food is great, the service is amazing. The cashier Jesabell is outstanding, very thorough when explaining the menu and we all appreciate that since it could be a little difficult to understand the Japanese ingredients. 10/10 read more
