This is easily the best sushi in Northern Nevada! The servings are more than ample, the food quality is excellent, and there's not any fishy flavor in anything that you order. It all just tastes great. This is the passion project of Joe Laub, a long time Northern Nevada lawyer. You've seen his face on billboards. Now taste his food. You won't regret it! Service is top notch and you can tell the employees love working there. What a great find on this blustery winter evening. Update July 2025: since my first visit, I have been telling my friends that they must come with me and try the best sushi in Nevada. And so I brought them with me this time. We all agreed it was the most fantastic sushi we've ever had. I think this might be the finest sushi restaurant I'll ever go to. I can't wait to come back and show more friends this amazing place. I just hope they'll forgive me for ruining every other sushi restaurant they've ever been to, because nothing will ever compare to Sumi Sushi!

To be fair I wasn't expecting much going to a sushi place in the little Carson City. Much to my surprise it was amazing. I would nearly go to say the best variety and quality sushi I've ever had. Thanks to Brooke and Sarah for the service and the chef's for the great meal. I'll be back and definitely recommend it to anyone to try it you haven't already.

Tried out Sumi Sushi recently and had an awesome experience. The sushi was fresh and super well-made — you can tell the chefs know what they’re doing. Everything we ordered came out looking great and tasted even better. Shoutout to Sarah, who was both the manager and our server. She was super friendly, attentive, and really made us feel welcome. The whole vibe of the place was chill and comfortable, but the service and food were seriously top notch.
