The Hungry Sumo - Collingwood

Fresh sushi amazing vibrant taste nothing dull great service very friendly and talkative staff

Not sure how this place has 4 stars honestly. The place itself is a converted old house, so it is very cozy on the inside. The parking can get busy since most people come here in groups from the beaches or Blue Mountain, so plan ahead. We came early so we got a spot no problem. Vegetable gyoza was pretty standard, its fried well. The ippai combo did not seem to have fresh salmon or tuna. Some of the other white fishes were great but the salmon and tuna, including the spicy salmon roll was not to my standard from what I see in Toronto. The udon soup was tasty, but not a lot of ingredients. The cabbage and carrot are barely boiled soft, and the chicken looks like its from frozen, just thrown in. We didnt have a soy sauce bottle on our table so I looked around to see if I could grab one from an empty table- the one next to ours had fruit flies surrounding the bottle..... there were also fruit flies I had to constantly swat away during our meal. On the plus side, the servers were nice and attentive. And the prices are cheap compared to the Village. Overall wouldn't come here again and wouldn't recommend anyone going either.

We ordered the chicken yaki udon and chicken donburi. Both were tasty however the chicken was overcooked and dry on both dishes. However, the other ingredients and sauce were good. The restaurant is clean and is in a house. Service was friendly. Price is a bit higher than average but that was expected for a touristy place. Free parking behind the restaurant.

We were in search for Japanese food while visiting Blue Mountain. The Hungry Sumo was about at 10 mins drive from the resort. The restaurant is actually in a house. Pretty unique. A bit old and run down and not as modern but it's clean enough. Parking was tough when we got there someone left but not a lot of parking spots in the back. There was 12 of us so they gave us a private room in the upper floor of this house. Note there's a 18% gratuity charge automatically when it's 10 guests or more. I gave this restaurant a 3 stars since some of the dishes were bit that great but a couple they were good. There were a few dishes to definitely avoid. The assortment of tempura is great, fresh and crispy. But when we ordered a second order of just shrimp tempura which was more expensive the shrimps came out so small. Not worth it. Stick with the assorted tempura. The sushi boat for $69 was not worth it. The portion was small. The yaki udon chicken was ok. The portion was small for $23!! With small pieces is chicken. The teriyaki steak was the worst dish, do not get this dish. It was like a stir fry sliced beef as per picture attached. It was NOT steak and for $25?? Not worth the price. The gyoza and age dashi tofu were good. I think only the fried items came out decent. I think the food was overpriced and not the best quality. I will probably not come back.

Amazing experience with my nephew with Down syndrome. Took him there on autism awareness day. He has no teeth so miso soup was all he could have! Amazing service!
