Sushi & Grill · All you can eat
Eat until you can’t — the Japanese way.

01 — The house
A rodízio house, with the kitchen working for the room.
Happy Sumo is a Japanese all-you-can-eat restaurant on Estrada de Santa Eulália, in the Oura Azul building. The room is large, with blue benches and stone walls, and the windows look onto the street. At dusk the red lanterns are lit.
The system is simple, and it is what guests single out: everyone gets a sheet, ticks what they want and orders up to five dishes at a time. When it is gone, you tick another one. Food leaves the kitchen as it is ordered — it is not waiting on a counter.
- Free parking at the door and outdoor tables.
- Air-conditioned room and free Wi-Fi.
- Vegetarian and vegan options on the menu.
- Its own take away, with a menu board at the entrance.
02 — How it works
All you can eat, but served at the table.
The house calls it rodízio, not a buffet, and the difference shows: nobody gets up to fetch food. You order, and it comes.
02
Up to five at a time
Up to five dishes per round. The kitchen makes them to order and the waiters bring them over.
03
Then you order again
Finished? Tick another sheet. During your sitting, you order as many times as you like.
03 — The menu
The house platters, written the way the house writes them.
The names and numbers are the ones on the list the restaurant publishes. In the restaurant itself, the rodízio order sheet is longer than this.
