If you love fusion restaurants in Arizona, you definitely need to add SumoMaya in Scottsdale to your bucket list. Serving both Asian and Latin American fare, this unique restaurant lets you chow down on everything from sushi to tacos. It’s pure foodie heaven!
One of the best fusion restaurants in Arizona, SumoMaya offers a unique, East-meets-West dining experience that takes your taste buds on a thrilling adventure that combines the incredible flavor of Asian cuisine with the longstanding culinary traditions of South America.
SumoMaya is just as much a feast for the eyes as the taste buds. The bright colors - and the gigantic real tree heading up center stage - chart the course for an exciting journey that begins as soon as you step inside.
The menu changes seasonally, showcasing only the freshest and most flavorful ingredients available. Served tapas-style, the dishes are designed to be shareable so that everyone gets to sample a variety of different offerings.
With over 36 types of sushi and seven kinds of tacos to choose from, SumoMaya is pure foodie heaven. Either go traditional with a California roll, or spice things up a bit and try a fusion roll topped with pico de gallo and Tajin seasoning.
Just as many of the sushi rolls are infused with Latin American flavor, you'll also see Asian-inspired tacos. The Korean beef tacos are a fan favorite, featuring braised short rib, kimchi, pickled veggies, and bulgogi sauce.
Whatever you do, make sure to save room for dessert. From tres leches cake to ice cream and several other decadent choices, there's something to satisfy every sweet tooth.
The drink menu is almost as delicious as the food menu, with beer, sake, wine, and lots of unique craft cocktails that really push the envelope (in the most delicious way possible).
