I had an amazing dining experience at Hungry Sumo! The atmosphere was delightful, with a perfect blend of modern decor and traditional Japanese elements that created a cozy and inviting ambiance. The quick service was a pleasant surprise. Our orders were taken promptly, and the food arrived surprisingly fast, without feeling rushed. It allowed us to savor our meal without any unnecessary delays. What truly sets Hungry Sumo apart is its authentic take on sushi. The sushi here is a taste of Japan right in the heart of Collingwood. Every bite was bursting with the freshest ingredients, and the chefs’ skill in crafting each roll was evident. It felt like a culinary journey through Japan’s rich sushi traditions. I highly recommend Hungry Sumo to any sushi enthusiast looking for a memorable dining experience. The combination of a great atmosphere, quick service, and authentic sushi makes it a must-visit restaurant in town! Atmosphere: 5/5 Service: 5/5 Response: 5/5 Value: 5/5

Excellent quality and full of flavor. Excellent atmosphere and service. Sushi rolls and udon were highest quality and presentation. Enjoyed matcha tea and miso. Would come back unquestionably.

Service was great. The place was empty when we were there on a weeknight, not sure why because the sushi was excellent. Lots of choices, good portion sizes. Cocktails were thoughtfully curated, should’ve got a picture. Definitely the spot for sushi in Collingwood.

A beautiful hole in the wall sushi spot that will blow you away. I became acquainted with the hungry sumo a few years ago when I would order their lunch bentos while working in the area. Since then, I have been dying to get back and try the food at the restaurant proper. It took several attempts as the restaurant is on the smaller side, so seating is limited, but I assure you it is well worth the wait. The homey atmosphere paired with the expertly prepared food makes for an incredible evening. As if that wasn't enough, they offer some gluten-free options, which allowed a friend to enjoy the first sushi night out in a while as a celiac. We will definitely be returning whenever possible!

Came here for lunch and I’m so glad I did. We came shortly after opening on a Saturday. The sushi tasted amazing and the presentation was nice. We decided to try the “Drip Too Hard” roll, which tasted unique but we really enjoyed it. It had ...
