Been a while since I've been here and stopped in for lunch recently when running a Mooresville errand. The food is still great with this visit bringing a Carolina Dog and Angry Dog and I love what they've done with the bar. Rock and roll music themed, long and just a nice space over all. Felt like a place I would hang out regularly if I lived closer. There's a reason Sumo Shack has had the staying power other restaurants have not at this location. read more

I was in Mooresville for a business trip and was staying at the Home2Suites next door. I wondered in to grab a quick bite and was pleasantly surprised with how delicious the food was! The salted sweet potato fries were a little overcooked, but the Philly could not have been any better. There isn't much seating inside, but I really liked the place. Service was good and the food was great. read more

The food is consistent, the service is very good. I would recommend this restaurant to my friends. Very nice, clean restaurant

I love a good smash burger, and these are GOOD. I got the Mac and cheese burger and my friend got the Aloha burger and both were amazing! The onion rings weren't very good and I'm pretty sure they put hidden valley in a 2 oz container as "their" ranch. Besides that, we would definitely come back! read more

We were in a soccer tournament and next to our hotel was this restaurant. The atmosphere, food and service were great. The owner/operator was very nice and talkative. Geat place for family or/and friends. read more

Tried Sumo Shack LKN yesterday. I've been looking for a good Chicago dog ever since Matt's Chicago Dog closed. This place didn't disappoint . The Chicago Dog was good. The Tater Tits were some of the best I've had in a long time. The fried pickles were also good. Give this place a try. Note... make sure to tell them if you do or do not want onions on the Chicago Dog. read more

What a great time with our first experience at Sumo Shack and of course the Highway Bar. This bar was built in Chicago 1954 and moved here to NC! A must see. The food was amazing and look forward to going again. read more

okay, welcome to sumo shack; like the love shack but sub out Fred Schneider and the B-52s' for kimchi fries and a proper chicago dog. can't have a bad time here: the overhead is midcentury stuff that is closer to big hair than big bands but there you go; the menu lists the food of my youth and that long skinny bar from a long skinny tavern south of the Skyway tells lies about summer days and indecision, starless nights too often in the company of torch singers and madmen... but for now my cardiologist says the only person here that might kill me is the fry-cook. so yeah: hot dogs, smash burgers, italian beef sammiches with the constant threat of tarted-up taters. barstools and fancy flooring and people trying to make sense of the odd little protuberances along the wall. the late afternoon air full up with samples of the most disreputable dance music in the best possible way and if I had my druthers I'd be here way too often. Maybe I'll Live Forever... read more

The food is amazing and has great prices too! But the service is absolutely terrible. We spent 20+ minutes waiting for our order to be taken. The guy behind the bar would continuously look in our direction seeing that we are done looking at the menu and ready to order. But he didn't wait on us until we had to get up ourselves and go to the bar to tell him we were ready to order our food. This has happened twice now at two different times we have went there. Recommended the food to a friend but warned them about the service. They experienced the same thing. So maybe order your food to go! read more

Found this little gem while searching through Yelp one day. The food is fast and freshly made. And the staff is very friendly. Restaurant has recently undergone a renovation and put in a beautiful old Chicago bar. But the real stars here are the ooey gooey cheesesteaks. There are several different varieties and the loaded fries are also a must try. read more

Best Philly I've ever ate. We got the Sumo philly. Highly recommend this place. Cool vibe inside as well. Fast service.

A perfect Chicago transplant. Even the bar look like Richard's on Halsted! Amazing food and the staff is so great. read more

The sandwiches were good but a little pricey. We got the large size too and it wasn't very big $17 for just the sandwich without the side is a lot. Their onion rings were also awful but could be because we got them to go. The breading wasn't even on them read more

Food was very tasty and portions were solid. Service was good, environment was nice. We had a mix of burgers, cheesesteaks, fries, chicken, and the pretzel. Everything was great. read more

Amazing food and bar atmosphere! The shrimp cocktail, huge pretzel and practically all the menu is super, plus the drinks are also top notch The bar itself has also been bought and shipped out of Chicago ( I believe it was from the '50s!) which gives the bar a really unique atmosphere read more

Sumo Shack LKN - Aloha Smash Burger with Fried Pickles - Burgers Near Me - Mooresville, North Carolina

Perhaps we went at the wrong time or ordered the wrong items, but this is a one & done for us since there are better options. The smash burger should not be described as a smash burger. It's just a normal burger. I asked for no onions on the Chicago dog yet there they were. The food was average at best. At least the fried pickles were decent. read more

It was our first time at this establishment and they did not disappoint! Such unique flavors and combinations! We loved everything we tried! (The sweet potato fries were a bit meh but maybe that's because they were just basic and the rest of the food we ordered had such rich flavor profiles.) read more

Absolutely FANTASTIC burgers and dishes. I've tried probably one of everything from the menu over the course of the last few months and literally EVERYTHING is amazing. I don't think I've had even one dish I could say isn't my favorite. The burgers are absolutely stacked, the fusion is the perfect blend of flavors, and the loaded fries are something I dream about nightly. Phenomenal. read more

Got the Philly Cheesesteak here and it was awesome, prices are reasonable and the service was amazing. Our food got out very fast and my girlfriend and I were more than satisfied with the quality of the dishes. Worth checking out! read more

Cool spot. Reasonable prices. I had the OG Cheesesteak. Everything that Sumo Shack did was perfect. This is a part of the country that has no bakeries, so the bread sucks everywhere... and the roll that they put it on is garbage. It's not their fault... they aren't going to bake their own bread for a $12 cheesesteak. Beer was cold and service friendly. I'd go back when I have to return here. read more

Really good Mac and cheese burger. Really good fries. Nice service, nice vibes. Will come here again.

Smash burger was pretty tasty, fried pickles no matter how good they are I have never been a fan of, my girl love them so. The sub with the Korean beef the flavor is out of this world I enjoy the food for sure will be back to try more. read more

We wanted to try somewhere we haven't been before tonight and we picked take out from Sumo Shack! I got the aloha burger and fries and my boyfriend got a KO BBQ Philly. While messy, I really liked my burger. (And I partly liked it because of how messy it was!) I thought the flavors were different than other places I've been and I'm never mad at that. Fries were good, even after driving home which is great! Not super soggy. My boyfriend thought the cheese sauce was a bit much on his philly as it was the overpowering flavor, but really liked that it stayed together while eating. Glad we tried it out! read more

Great prices and great food that my wife and I loved and the kids loved even more! I got the Chicken wings which were crispy and sauced perfectly. The kids got Macaroni and Cheese and one got the cheese steak. All food was eaten and that's almost impossible with our 3 kiddos 8,5,5! read more

We visited Sumo Shack after returning from the mountain area of NC. I've been really wanting to try this place, but it is quite a commute for those of us living in south Charlotte. Since this place was on the way home, it made for an easy stop. For a Saturday evening, they were not very busy. A couple of patrons inside, and no one outside on their patio. We elected for the patio since we had our dog with us and it was a nice evening. They offered to get water for our dog even though we already had some. Super friendly! Now onto the good stuff - what we got: Pimento Smash Lakeway Philly Mac and Cheese Sumo Fries All of it but the mac and cheese was outstanding. The burger, philly, and fries had so much flavor that it was shocking that the mac and cheese didn't. Maybe if I had stirred the cheesy topping into the mac, would have helped, but the base was not that flavorful. Was the perfect creamy consistency, but just didn't have much flavor. The philly might just be the best I've had in the Charlotte area - just so good! Service was outstanding. Couldn't have had a better visit - thank you Sumo Shack! read more

We had a group of 7 come in on a Monday night at 6pm. There are not many tables to speak of so we ate at the bar. That's OK. There was one bartender / server. It took a LONG time to get drinks but it took 1-1/2 hours to get food that was ordered. Sides were billed but not delivered (stricken from the bill later). The food was good (if adventurous) but not appreciated by some locals who like 'regular' food. One friend ordered a 12" OG Philly with mayo (no mayo ever appeared). Another's fries never showed. Another's wings never appeared. I want to like the place but the bartender/server never showed remorse for his inattention the whole night. My spicy bulgogi Philly was pretty good. Sumo Shack came highly recommended but their service was about the worst we've had in Mooresville. I feel bad but it leaves a bad taste in my group's mouth, you know? Maybe it was a bad night.... but not terribly busy. read more

When Kenty posted pictures of this place, I knew I had to try it. We spent the day hiking near Boone and it wasn't too much further to go through Mooresville on our way home, so was our delicious reward. Covid-19: you can order and pay online through ChowNow. They do curbside delivery too. There's a picnic table in the parking lot where we enjoyed our food. What we ordered: the Sumo Philly, Sumo Mac and Cheese, Sumo Smash Burger, and Umami Dog (spicy everything). Everything was phenomenal. I think this was the best takeout meal we've had in quarantine. My favorite thing was the Sumo Smash Burger. Pro tip: add some Sumo Mac and Cheese to the burger. We got the 6 inch Sumo Philly and it was massive. It had so much meat it could have been a meal on its own. It was cheesy and so delicious. The hotdog was amazing as well. I recommend mixing up the mac and cheese to make sure the pork belly and bbq sauce are distributed evenly. It all seemed to be in the middle on ours. We live in south Charlotte and it's worth a trip to Mooresville just to try this restaurant! Stop by Red's Scratch Made for cookies for dessert! read more

All the food smells so good and they look delicious. We ordered delivery and they got nice packaging and labels. The fries are too salty for my taste but perfect for my dad. My ribeye Lakeway Philly tastes similar to one dish that I've had in other restaurants, so I had no surprise. But, it tastes better the next day when I microwave it. I guess I wasn't hungry last night read more

Oh my gosh!! If you are craving your typical American food with an Asian twist, this is your place! I wanted something to really hit the spot and this did it for me. We ordered the sumo burger and the sumo chicken sandwich with a side of loaded fries and this was more than enough for two people! The food did take a bit long to come out, almost over 20mins, but that means it's made fresh I guess? The fries were actually very crunchy, which I liked and still maintained their crunch even with all of the toppings on top of it (sour cream, bacon, cheese sauce, green onions). After I ate everything, I saw how greasy it was, but I mean what can I say? It hit the spot! read more

Cool place to grab a sandwich for lunch. Although you have to place the order up front before taking your seat, the waitstaff frequently checks on customers and takes care of refills. The bar wasn't open when we went in for lunch. Out of what we tried, the Philly cheesesteaks variety was supreme. The fries tasted like Burger King fries, but were nice and hot. read more
