When you think of sushi and bento boxes in the UAE, you have to think about Sumo Sushi & Bento. It’s one of the oldest and most well established sushi brands here.

With their extensive menu including a decent vegetarian section along with specials each month, there really is something for everyone.
Both of us had our first sushi experience at Sumo Sushi & Bento many years ago, so for us it’s definitely a nostalgic place.
Our verdict: Great food with innovative dishes and an extensive menu, you will definitely find a dish or two to try out even if you’re not a sushi eater.

Our verdict: Head there and tuck in for a delicious journey to Italy.
