    Flying Sumo was a great experience. Forgive me but I have been slacking on my reviews. Ok.. so greatness from beginning to end. Lots of things to choose from here. Staff great was warm and welcomed on that cold evening we left no food behind. It was delightful place enough to but the T-shirt to wear back in Tx!! If you in Park City it's definitely worth the try

    I gave this place a try, but it missed the mark. The udon was overwhelmingly salty. Unagi roll and hamachi nigiri were just okay--not enough to make me want a second visit.

    Food: 2/5 stars--The food was good, just basic. There was nothing special about it expect for the outrageous prices compared to other sushi places on Main Street in Park City. Service: 2/5 stars--Sadly, the hostess had a strange attitude. She asked us if we had reservations, and we said no. The restaurant was practically empty, and she "hmmmed" disapprovingly and asked us if we'd be okay sitting at the bars. The restaurant only had five groups eating.... Our water was refilled one time, and my boyfriend's water sat empty for about eight minutes. The person serving our food was kind and competent, which is why this section earned 2 stars instead of 1 star. Although the restaurant was practically empty, our two sushi rolls took about 25 minutes to arrive. Ambiance: 2/5-The inside is hip with loud music but casual dining. There was an obnoxious, high-pitched fan running the whole time. For the price and poor service, you can find better sushi places in this town.

    Good quantity of food for the price. The best Gyoza in Park City hands down. The fried rice is decent. The teriyaki is good as well. The tempura veggie sushi roll we got was VERY dry. This was our second time trying this restaurant. The first time we dined in and second time we got take out. The fried rice & gyoza are a safe bet. Sushi rolls are a hit or miss. The first time we dined in the server was nice & the restaurant's atmosphere was welcoming. The sushi bar was definitely popular. Very family oriented as well. The parking was also easy to find on that Sunday. They are also very accommodating to shellfish allergies! I'm hoping to find a sushi roll I like more in the future. Gyoza & fried rice are always a safe bet as is their teriyaki. The online ordering is also very convenient.

    This was a fun place to visit but nothing sensational. I came here with my sister and she got a noodle dish that was pretty good. I got the salmon sashimi. At the price I was disappointed that the pieces were not cut well or very large. When paying a premium price for a roll I expect premium quality. The rolls were excellent. We ate so fast I couldn't get pictures of them all and the rolls are a good portion size. If you're going here I'd suggest focusing on the rolls and the nigiri 2 pieces. That was the best part.

    Sharing is caring

    Such a magical night with Gourmand Food tour! Our last stop was so fun we stayed for this lollipop roll. Chef Adam makes this place epic.

    Thriller, Spicy Dragon, Chuck F'n Norris, Snow Bowl rolls.

    We have been trying to eat here for several years (unable to as they only open for dinner and always seemed to be closed) finally made it for dinner during 2024 Sundance Film Festival. The food, service, and experience did not disappoint! The Tokyo Nachos were great in flavor and larger portions than I expected. The Shishito peppers were as expected. The Agedashi tofu was just ok. For the rolls, We had the Chuck F'n Norris, Snow Bowl, Spicy Dragon, and the Thriller. All were excellent. We all left having a good experience and fresh, great sushi. Even got everyone the Flying Sumo tee shirts to commemorate our visit!

    Fabulous experience here for dinner this past Thursday night while we were in town. We grabbed…read morereservations a week out (I tried to book Friday but they were already full, so reservations are recommended!). We were sat at a table upstairs, intimate and cool vibes. Our waiter Billy was excellent - attentive, and gave us good guidance (and reassurance) on the menu and what we ordered! I started with the cucumber martini, very refreshing. For food, we ordered the crispy tuna tartare, wagyu bruschetta, chiller special roll, and the 2 hand rolls off the specials menu. I want to go back in time and eat it all again. Everything was excellent, but the chiller roll and wagyu bruschetta were at the top of the list. The wagyu bruschetta was the perfect blend of locally made baguette, tender wagyu beef, and drizzled pork butter. The chiller roll (Billy's favorite) was so unique and in the best way. The combination of everything worked together perfectly - including a sliver of lemon on top! Will be a must-go to spot when we are back in town.

The restaurant is located on Main Street and has plenty of space inside since it's two stories. Trish was an excellent host. She was great to talk to and made the whole visit very special for my cousin. We really appreciate her going above and beyond for our group. The sushi here is great. Very fresh and creative options. A member of our group has a sesame allergy and the staff took great care to ensure she had something good (and safe) to eat. I'll definitely be back the next time we visit Park City. Overall I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for great sushi and service in PC!

You can sit inside or outside, we did both. The luxury shrimp appetizer was definitely one of our favorites, we had never had something like that before it was mind blowing.

Overall, don't be scared to get sushi in this mountain town.

    I know what you're thinking, and it was on my mind too. Mountain sushi? Will I be sick afterwards?…read moreWell, I was sick with great vibes and happiness after our group apres ski dinner at Oishi Sushi. Their website states that they are Park City's favorite since 1995. It doesn't explicitly say what for, so I'm assuming they mean sushi (Favorite ambiance? Favorite bathrooms? The people need some clarity here). Some cursory research leads to me to believe that this is the only sushi establishment to have existed in Park City since 1995, so they're doing something right. Happy belated 30th, Oishi. You're a Millennial! To be completely transparent, I didn't do any of the ordering here (shoutout to Michael) so I don't know exactly what we had, but I was very impressed with the sushi despite what you would think based on the location. I'm not sure where they're sourcing their fatty tuna from, but each bite was a fluffy delicacy. $16 for 5 gyoza is wild, but I won't hold that against them in these trying times of gyoza-flation. I will say you're better off just ordering more sushi. I was very impressed by the ability and willingness of Oishi to sit and reasonably entertain a group of 14 ravenous adventurers. Our fellow diners were not ready for the volume to be cranked up to a different decibel once the sake bombs came out, though. Relative to other mountain town dining, Oishi deserves 5 stars. A worthy destination for your post-skiing group grub.

In terms of attire, it's a mixed bag as with other places here.. we were pretty casual but some were dressed up a bit more. Our server was wonderful, and the food and drink was phenomenal. This was, hands down, the best meal we had in Park City. We started with cocktails. The gin cocktail I had was the perfect combination of floral and citrus and left me wanting more. My husband enjoyed his as well. The wine menu here is insanely overpriced, so next time I'd ask the corkage fee to consider bringing our own bottle. They brought out a bread that was cooked with a Japanese seasoning on it and a side of butter, and it was delicious. The bison was the best thing we ate; incredibly tender and cooked to perfection, if we lived here we would be back often for this. The elk was very good as well, with fresh herbs that helped bring out the flavor. Can't go wrong with either of these dishes but the bison was the star to us. My daughter ordered the kids pasta with butter and parm, and my son ordered the kids chicken fingers which came with potato wedges. Both were a good portion for children. For the sides, we ordered the Japanese sweet potatoes and the fried rice. The sweet potatoes were something different and were tasty but not our favorite or something we would order again. The fried rice with egg was delicious; it was full of sliced garlic and amazingly seasoned, we could not help but finish it all. At the time of the check, our server offered cotton candy for the kids. It was very flavorful and soft. It was a nice finishing touch. We'll definitely be booking this restaurant for our next trip to Park City.

The spicy tuna on top was really flavorful and well balanced, bringing just the right amount of heat without overpowering the dish. The miso soup was also a pleasant surprise -- the portion size was generous and perfect for sharing. It was warm, comforting, and a great start to the meal. We also ordered the karaage. Unfortunately, this was the weakest dish for me. The chicken itself didn't have much flavor, and if it weren't for the dipping sauce it would have been quite bland. It was also made with dark meat, which I'm personally not a big fan of. The hamachi nigiri was fantastic. The fish tasted incredibly fresh and clean, and the simplicity of the dish really let the quality of the hamachi shine. Another standout was the Wasatch roll -- a true dynamite roll with lots of flavor and fresh hamachi. Every bite had great texture and balance. To end the meal, everyone was given a small bowl of cotton candy, which was a fun and unexpected touch. I hadn't had cotton candy in years, and it was a playful way to finish the night. Overall, there were some great highlights, especially the sushi and fresh fish, and the experience had a lively and enjoyable atmosphere.

A few months ago we tried to eat here and got there one hour before they close (not 10 minutes- ONE WHOLE HOUR before closing.) Most of the tables were filled and still eating or waiting on food. Upon walking in the owner basically yelled at us from behind the sushi counter that he was "closed." Uhm ok, but the door says you close in an HOUR and almost every table still had occupants. We felt so disrespected and embarrassed, like why can't we be served?! No problem we took our business , money and 30% tip elsewhere where we felt wanted and valued. Fast forward to last night, a rare date night we were excited for. We got our food, however the vibe, ambiance and service is just so strange. We felt like the employees behind the sushi counter were watching us and talking/laughing at all of the guests the entire time. Also the bill was delivered before we were even done ( with over a half hour until closing,) so much for possibly wanting more food or another round of drinks. That was a nice hint to gtfo. The ONLY good thing about this place is the food, maybe that's why other reviews say they have so many takeout orders- because people cannot stand to dine in this place.
