Square Meal review of Sumosan:

A chic modern Japanese, Sumosan’s ground-floor dining room, discreetly sequestered from the outside world by gauzy screens hanging in full-length windows, is not so minimalist as to forego the comfort of well-upholstered chairs. Meals here are multi-course affairs, involving starters, salads, sushi & sashimi & a couple of mains. The kitchen’s exceptionally creative sushi rolls, such as the fragrant tuna & truffle T&T, are the menu’s highlight, though the simplicity of a spanking fresh slice of ruby-red bluefin tuna nigiri indicates not only a chef with expert knife-wielding skills but also prime-quality ingredients. Elsewhere, tuna furikaki (seared in a sesame & almond crust), delicately steamed Chilean sea bass & sweet-fleshed honey mustard organic pork ribs also impress. Although the cooking & staff generally get the thumbs-up, occasional grumbles of ‘average food’ & ‘very slow service’ mean that high prices continue to raise eyebrows; an impressive set lunch, offering seven dishes for £22.50, offers a painless way to road-test the kitchen.
