THE MENUS
One of the things that makes Sumo + Sushi so special is the opportunity to highlight the incredible culinary talent in every city we visit. In Phoenix, we've partnered with Shimogamo to create menus for every sushi experience, from bento boxes to premium sushi offerings.
MEET SHIMOGAMO ↗
Shimogamo has been serving authentic Japanese cuisine in Arizona since 2003, bringing together traditional techniques, exceptional ingredients, and thoughtful hospitality. Led by Executive Chef Daisuke Itagaki, Shimogamo is known for its sushi and sashimi, alongside a broader menu inspired by the flavors and craftsmanship of Japan. With locations in Chandler and Gilbert, Shimogamo continues to share a refined yet approachable expression of Japanese dining with the Arizona community.
Official Japanese Beer Partner of Sumo + Sushi
Kirin Ichiban
Discover Kirin Ichiban, a beer born from over a century of Japanese brewing mastery. Its unique “Ichiban Shibori,” or First Press, method uses only the first press of the ingredients to create an exquisitely crisp, remarkably rich taste without bitterness—a reflection of Japanese craftsmanship and culinary harmony.
