    The food served was plentiful and tasty. The show was entertaining and fun. Seating is allocated based on payment date, so best to pay as soon as possible to ensure the best table. That said, there really isn't any really bad tables. Have fun there - we did!!

  • Great choice for learning and entertainment

    This was such a fun event! We learned much about Sumo and were highly entertained. We laughed alot. The Sumos were very friendly. They put on a great demonstration and the audience participation was more fun than we expected. We highly recommend this event if you want an intro to Sumo in a fun way.
