“My favorite from all the foods which we ordered is the 'Samurai poke" bowl! My least favorite is "The Duke" poke bowl. The reason is, both of them seem to have the same bowl size and food proportions, and the only reason which makes "Duke higher in price than the " Samurai poke" is the octopus which is included in that dish. That's all!”

Check parking. If driving, use only the furthest public-parking row, buy a ticket, and bring coins; other spaces may be reserved.
Specify spice. Mention non-spicy preferences when ordering; a reviewer said the team replaced the dish after a misunderstanding.
Try sharing. For a group, ask about the sharing box if you want to switch up your sushi options rather than choose one fixed combination.
Skip octopus. If you are not a fan of octopus, compare the Samurai Poke or Cali Poke before choosing The Duke.
Allow delivery time. For delivery, allow more time than you might at another Sumo branch, based on one comparative review.

One review found the poke bowl too rice-heavy, leaving a lot of base rice uneaten.
The beef ramen was the one dish a reviewer felt did not hit the mark.
The edamame arrived barely warm and was considered under-seasoned.
A reviewer found delivery took longer here than at other Sumo branches.
The Bottom Line
Sumo Sushi & Bento DMC is a casual Japanese restaurant in Al Sufouh where you can order sushi, bento, ramen and poke bowls. The strongest reasons to consider it are the broad sushi menu, friendly service and a choice of indoor or outdoor dining. It also suits groups: one reviewer used the sharing box to change and switch up the sushi options.
Several named dishes receive specific praise. The Crunchy Crazy rolls and Samurai Poke are recurring favourites, while the chicken teriyaki bento stands out for crunchy, tender dark meat and extra teriyaki sauce. A sashimi visit was described as fresh, tasty and well served, and the crab salad and sushi sandwich also impressed one sushi-focused diner.
Prices are repeatedly described as reasonable, though one review recorded Chef’s special Sushi at AED198. The outdoor area is a draw for a quieter evening, but the indoor space has been called small and overly cold on one visit. Food quality is not perfectly consistent: one diner found a poke bowl too heavy on rice, another disliked the beef ramen, and delivery took longer than at other branches.
Drivers should check the public-parking rows carefully and carry coins for the ticket.
