🌟Jeff's Guide🌟 ✅ This is the best place to eat under the vibe of izakaya with loads of decorations which are very authentic 🇯🇵 From the video you will see the chef likes to heighten the atmosphere with drums when the sea fish kichiji is ready to serve and when some customers are celebrating their birthday 🎂 A small cup of sake is served on the house too🍶 ✅The food are in general good and worth the price ✅ A place where Japanese also dining here. Doesn't this mean something to you?😆 ↔️ A bit expensive to me personally but I will definitely come back again

If you're trying to hit up the absolute best izakaya vibe in Wan Chai, Sumito is a massive W. We sat right at the counter and watching the chefs do their thing over the actual binchotan charcoal grill was pure theatre. The smokiness they get on the robata skewers is elite—the chicken skin and wagyu were cooked to absolute perfection. Also, do not sleep on their aburi oshi sushi, the flame-seared flavor hits so different. The energy is super high, the staff is incredibly attentive, and the sake selection is deep. It’s easily the perfect spot to wind down, grab some incredible food, and vibe out with the crew. 🍢🔥

Overall a decent restaurant. Big fan of the boss (I assume), rly friendly guy. A great place for a birthday, they give you a birthday hat, free drink & sake for the table to cheers with the whole resto. My only issue: we ordered the chicken thigh skewers & it came out raw. Mistakes happen & that’s understandable, but how the waiters / waitresses dealt with it. No apology. No explanation. No acknowledgment. Wasn’t sure if it was because we were in a room but the service was rly lacking. Super thirsty & they only poured us one round of tea & we had to ask for that. It’s a shame because the food was quite nice & the vibes were good with games to play too!

Sumito, under the same group as Kaki Sakaba, is offering a couple of discounts like half price sake and steamed oysters. It's a typical local izakaya with staff chatting and drinking with guests the whole night. Honestly the grilled items were mostly overcooked. The chicken breast was tough and dry. Even the chicken liver which we requested rare was served fully cooked. Such a waste of the charcoal grill. It's a cool place if you wanna celebrate birthday with lots of people as they arrange specials for that. But if you're looking for some good quality food, you should consider another place.
