This place is my hidden gem now. I got a double matcha and Una Don. The double matcha was actually amazing and Una Don was so yummy and perfect not too salty. The staffs were super nice, friendly and welcomed. There is plenty parking and easy to find. Definitely will come back to try other food and matcha. read more

I love how this place has such a great selection of food. My favorite dish was hands down the large unadon. The eel was perfectly grilled, and I also really enjoyed their house made teriyaki sauce. I had enough to bring the other half home for a second meal. I also got to eat some of my husband's large gyudon curry. We thought it was unique because most places have chicken katsu curry, but not gyudon curry. This was also delicious. We ordered a matcha lychee cloud kori, and enjoyed the lychee flavor. We also got a large matcha einspanner, but felt like it'd be best with a bit of oat milk for added flavor. There are about 5 small tables inside for you to enjoy your food and drinks. You can also buy snacks, desserts, and drinks that are prepackaged if you're looking for a quick grab and go. Service wise, they're efficient and also check in to see if you're enjoying your food and drinks. I really enjoy Sumo Go, and will definitely be back! read more

Sumo Go is an absolute gem and now a Go-To spot for me! They specialize in high quality food, drinks, and snacks from Japan. I was ravenous for an early lunch and we ordered a large Gyu Don curry ($28) and large Una Don ($28). The large size is absolutely the way to go - as the owner described it - you get double the food for not double the price (regular size is $18). The portions are huge and the food was so delicious, fresh, it blew me away. It was plenty to bring back for dinner. The unagi was perfect cooked and we got an entire filet with the large size order. I couldn't stop eating the Gyu Don curry. When we left the owner even stopped by to offer some curry to go and some boxes and bags. Awesome service! We also ordered a matcha einspanner. My only recommendation would be to offer this drink with oat milk as it was made only with water. They have a few tables inside and outside. Overall this place is awesome! read more

Sumo Go - Japanese Near Me - San Diego, California

Came here for the first time and was blown away by how many snacks they sell from my childhood! My husband and I shared a Unadon, a chicken karaage and their seasonal strawberry matcha drink. The unadon sumo size is HUGE and enough for the two of us to share. The flavor was 10/10! The karaage flavor was also really good but bit on the dry side so it may just be the cut of meat we got. Strawberry Matcha Latte was amazing! They definitely use quality matcha here and bonus points for oat milk alternatives! Staff was also super nice and we got our food pretty quickly! Can't wait to come back! read more

For my first time visit, I tried their Egg Salad Sando to-go which was already made and located in their refrigerated shelf. Was just above $7. Has both egg and potato inside. I liked it, no complaints. Good amount of each ingredient; not too much mayo, had enough egg salad filling, and bread was soft. It came with a brown savory sauce which I never tried with an egg sandwich before, but thought it was worked well together. Service was nice from the gentleman that day. Small shop with a a few tables inside read more

Very cute store with yummy food. The workers are very kind. For the unagi bowl, it had a bit too much sauce for my liking which made it slightly too salty, but I enjoyed it a lot because the unagi had a nice taste. I would like to come back to try other signature drinks because they were a good balance of sweetness and flavor. read more

Sumo Go - Una Don, Gyu Don Curry, matcha Einspanner, matcha Coco Crush - Japanese Near Me - San Diego, California

I tried the Gyu Don bowl at Sumo Go, and it was a surprisingly satisfying spot for a quick Japanese comfort meal. The portion size was huge,the bowl was packed with thinly sliced beef over rice, topped with pickled ginger, green onions, and sesame seeds. The beef was tender and flavorful with a sweet-savory sauce that soaked nicely into the rice without being overwhelming. The pickled ginger added a fresh contrast that helped balance the richness. Their drinks are really great as well! Will definitely be back to try more when I'm in the area! read more

Delicious little spot with friendly staff and very yummy food! The drinks were tasty and the bowls were filling and I think appropriately priced for the size and quality (though it'll still run you $18-20ish minimum at the time of this writing). The shop also has a variety of Asian snacks for purchase. read more

Absolutely delicious. We orderd the teriyaki chicken karage bowl, egg salad sando and the coco matcha. The egg sando was one of the best Ive had. The bread was perfect, and the egg was well seasoned. The karaage bowl was crispy and hit all the right notes. The matcha was pretty good, but the food was my favorite. I will be back. read more

Cute spot just opened on Miramar! Decided to stop since I had some time to kill before my doctor's appointment. They open at 9 so it was perfect. I got a double matcha and gyoza. The matcha was super tasty and you can tell they use good quality matcha. The gyoza was super nice and crispy and the sauce wasn't too salty. And bonus they have a grocery area where you can buy snacks, bottled drinks, ice cream and pastries! read more

I work at the farmers markets and I love eating at Sumo Size when I see them. When the person working the markets told me about the soft opening of their new store, Sumo Go, I had to attend. The day of the soft opening, I was ordering food for my wife and me so we could have lunch together on her break. My wife wanted to know if they had any Teriyaki Shrimp. I've never seen that on the menu before, but I called to ask anyway. The person who answered the phone was so polite and said they didn't have a Teriyaki Shrimp, but could put teriyaki sauce on the Shrimp Tempura dish. I told them I was satisfied with that option and continued my way over to the soft opening. After parking, I walked toward the store and was thrilled to have been greeted by the person from the farmers markets who gave me a quick tour! It was a beautiful space for a grab-and-go store. Enough space to seat a few customers, and enough clear space from the entrance to the counter for those quick grab-and-go orders. The space also had a lovely array of Japanese snacks and an open refrigerator display case with their "cold food". Their "hot food" was all on a menu placed above the counter next to their drinks menu. When I got to my wife on her lunch break, we opened our to-go containers to see a near-flawless display of our food. The custom Teriyaki Shrimp were placed ever so carefully in the center of the rice and delicately drizzled in the teriyaki sauce. My unagi rice bowl was also lovingly centered with shredded nori, and sesame seeds on top. It melted with every bite, taking me along with it. From the phone call with a custom order to receiving the food, my overall experience was phenomenal. The store is also conveniently located downstairs from a large dispensary. I'm very excited to frequently come back to this place. We live in greater San Diego and it's a little bit of a drive, but it's worth it for great customer service, an eye-catching and colorful space, and food that has love and craftsmanship cooked into it. I'd rate this place 10 Stars if I could! See you again soon, Sumo Go! read more

Matcha late is delicious. The matcha is foamy and flavorful. And they have almond milk. I got a hot matcha late with hazelnut and it was everything I wanted it to be. read more

Y'all gotta come thru and get some of their sandos and donburi's. Good deal for being under $20, and their sumo sized options can cover lunch and dinner. I had to take a bite of the food before reviewing it ofc. (Sando $7, katsudon bowl is $16) read more

The drinks and service are legit. I ordered the coco crush for myself and the candied orange oat latte drink for GF. Deeelicious. Egg salad sando is much fancier than the Japanese 7-11 version. They give you a side of a teriyaki type sauce with it. read more

Great eel and the double matcha is super authentic. Staff is super nice. Would definitely come again

This is a hidden gem but must visit! The people working behind this store are friendly people and they got good service. That's a plus on the review. The feeling of eating here is pretty cool. It feels like a restaurant combined with a mini snack bar. The food is really good here. I got the Japanese curry with chicken. I can tell the food is made with top tier quality because it tasted like it was home made. I do recommend coming here for anybody wanted to check out this spot. read more
