Sponsored: Sumo-Sized Opening

June 29, 2011 | 9:45 AM | Eat & Drink | By Staff

Sushi, Scottsdale and Sumo have become unanimous with the opening of Stingray Sushi’s newest location on South Street at Scottsdale Quarter. Yes, you read that right, sumo wrestlers and sushi. What else would you expect from the Japanese pop-culture loving Stingray?

Considering this is the first sushi restaurant to open in the area in over 10 years, it is fitting that they do something BIG. Over 1,000 pounds of big to be exact, as three World Champion Sumo Wrestlers gave a demonstration Sunday and Monday to stunned shoppers. This was the kick-off of five VIP events in two days to celebrate the new location, and along with multiple job fairs for their various concepts (Stingray Sushi, Spanish Fly, Jimmy Woo’s and Geisha A Go Go), the Old Town Group continues to expand. This time it’s in North Scottsdale’s quickly growing hot spot.

Known for their out-of-the-box sushi combinations and killer happy hour, (seriously if you haven’t been, it’s awesome) the contemporary, high energy Japanese restaurant will open it’s third location to the public today. With signature dishes such as Chilean Sea Bass and specialty rolls, including the Lollipop Roll (Stingray’s chef Andrew Nam is credited with it’s invention) and Godzilla Roll, along with a complete list of sakes and cocktails, you’d be crazy to not stop in.

So raise your chopsticks at the newest location of Stingray Sushi. As they say, ‘It’s the Way of the Ray.’

    - FYI, Yume Sushi opened their doors 1/2 mile north about a few months ago or so..
