    Sushi not fresh and the servicing size was small. No explanation of the type of fish. Over priced

    Outstanding, fresh fish every time! You don't have to worry if the fish is old, the professional Sushi Chefs know their fish. All of the servers are always attentive to all tables, you never have to "search" for someone. Shumi is the place to go to for traditional, real sushi; the right amount of rice, perfectly sliced fish, and the just right topping if used. We always bring our favorite Sake to enhance the sushi taste.

    We’ve been coming here for about two months and I’m so glad that I found this place. The fish is incredibly fresh. The portion sizes are perfect and the service is always good. It’s bring your own so that’s nice and saves money. Highly recommend

    We had the mini omakase experience which was absolutely sublime. The precise attention to detail for each course served was evident and the culinary results were amazing!

    Absolutely amazing, every visit to Shumi is better than the last. The anniversary omekase was the best yet. Every course of sushi that came out was perfection, and the variety is amazing. This is the best sushi I've had in the area.
