Sumo Sushi Hawaii @ NEX

Customer service was great, but the food unfortunately was not. I ordered a tempura donburi and paid about $ 8. For $ 8, I received a small bowl of dry rice and soggy (probably microwaved) shrimp tempura. For what I paid, I expected better quality.

Ate here about a week ago and it was pretty decent as far as fast food sushi goes. So me and my wife decided to head to the nex today and on our way out figured grab some sushi for lunch. We got home sat down my wife opened her container and ate one piece of the sushi. She looked down to grab another piece and noticed a cockroach in between the rolls. Will never ever go back to this place. Absolutely disgusting.

Not the worst sushi ever but definitely not good. Rice was falling apart and rolls were too large. Salmon was fresh but was ruined by too much cream cheese.

The sushi I had at this Sumo Sushi is on the worse side for sushi I have had in Hawaii. They are made to order but for some reason, all the seaweed they used to wrap the rice was super soggy.
Rolls are cut into too big pieces and the rice was falling apart… tells me the sushi chef has absolutely no skill. My shrimp tempura roll had nothing but cucumbers… I visually confirmed little tiny shrimp with soggy batter… didn’t taste shrimp whatsoever.
But what was I expecting??? This is a food court sushi in a little booth!

Delicious sushi spot located at food court of the NEX mall. You don’t have to be military to go enjoy this yummy goodness, the food court (2^nd floor) is open to the public. They have amazing sushi! My favorite is the California roll (crab, cucumber and avocado) and my boyfriend gets the Crunch Don (a bowl with rice, spicy ahi and avocado). Don’t forget to ask for soy sauce! This place is really worth checking out if you want something quick and super yummy especially while shopping. Beats fast food any day!

Had lunch there with my family yesterday, thankfully they decided to eat somewhere else. I got the Philly combo. Rice was not fully cooked and the sushi was falling apart (they use a machine to roll it). Twenty minutes after I ate there I spent the next ten minutes sitting on the toilet. Do yourself a favor and go elsewhere for your sushi fix.

I had the spicy ahi crunch roll and it was awesome! The ahi tasted amazing and fresh. I have been on island for 5 years and I’m sad I didn’t try this place sooner. Best sushi I have had here in Hawaii! And the guys were really friendly.

The sushi here is awesome! Although a bit pricey it is worth it and it has always been on point. I would recommend this to any sushi lover!

Great simple sushi!!! Fresh when I had it. Well priced, big portions and quick! Wasabi packets were spicy! Loved it

Love this place. The owner Sean provides great service and great sushi. Definitely try the combo bento!

Love this sushi stand! Sure, it’s «westernized» sushi, but that’s the best kind, right? ;) Second favorite sushi on island, great for a quick bite before heading in the commissary so you don’t buy up the whole store.

Sump sushi see es westernized sushi, its no where near authentic or traditional Japanese sushi. Except for the simple nigiri that are served.
There are no exotic fish, there is no uni, there is no ikura. Plenty of California rolls, tempura rolls, cream cheese rolls. They throw too many sauce over all of the sushi, so you can barely taste the fish. I guess its ok if you dont mind an overwhelming amount of sauces to smoother out the taste. They serve spicy ahi bowls here.

Good good sushi

Sumo Sushi is a small sushi stand located in the Rotunda of the Navy Exchange. The menu is pretty large for such a small stand and the food is okay. It’s something quick to eat and I enjoyed my volcano roll.
Only downside for me is the price. 1 roll was around $ 9.75 so it felt a little expensive for a california roll topped with spicy ahi.

Three stars for:
–Cheap
–Quick
–Convenient
Otherwise, this sushi cart churns out rolls one level above quickie mart sushi. It’s good in a pinch when you just need a snack to hold you over. But definitely not a mainstay or a recommended spot by any means.

I only go for the shrimp dumplings. For some reason I crave them all the time. Prices are a little high, and customer service could be better.

This is food court sushi.
I ended up ordering from here when I realized that the Cuban place in the NEX was gone and had been replaced with a hot dog and lemonade stand.
I ordered a spicy ahi roll and it was pretty big and decent in flavor. I wouldn’t seek this place out again, but it passed the test of me not getting sick and the sushi tasted fresh.
The prices were also reasonable.

Located in the NEX– Pearl Harbor food court.
Pricing is ehh– but the sushi is pretty good. I got a party platter and it was done in less than 8 minutes of my order. (:
