Loved the staff, the fighters, the food and even the entertainer! Didn't eat more food/drinks because had Ramen for lunch.. And fighting with the one and only Asa Mi Tani was such an unforgettable fun experience! Truly recommended!

Super fun way to experience a classic Japan activity - This was a terrific event, great entertainment, a nice lunch and some parting gifts. The entire team - the host, wrestlers and staff, we're all courteous, professional and determined to create a great experience for the guests. I highly recommend you volunteer to battle a wrestler. It's a hoot!

Good fun and entertaining night! - The interaction with the two sumo wrestlers had with the crowd was fun. The explanation of their training and the moves in combat was informative. The food was very good and the atmosphere of the room was great. The compare really got the crown involved with lots of cheering and noise making.

A Fun Show! - This was such a fun, interactive show. The hot pot lunch was delicious and there were a lot of options for the included beverage. The Sumo wrestlers were very entertaining and kept the crowd engaged and laughing the entire time! I also loved how they allowed members of the audience to participate in the experience as well. At the end of the show, each group took a picture with the Geisha and Sumo wrestlers of the show. They gave each member of the group their own picture along with a bag of items. You should definitely give this experience a try while in Tokyo. You won't be disappointed!

Yousho! - This was just fun. Don’t go into this with the expectation that you’re going to see a basho. This is a light hearted event but very fun and decent food.

Afternoon of Sumo entertainment - Since in Tokyo we decided to attend a local Sumo entertainment show that included lunch. We enjoyed the experience but it was more “entertainment” vs true Sumo exhibition. There was a lot humor and entertainment vs what I thought might be a true Sumo experience. Great for the kids who attended, lots on laughs and “entertainment”
