From the owner of award-winning Momo Sushi
Edina, MN–We’re pleased to introduce Ama Sushi, the newest addition to 50th & France’s excitingdining scene. Similar to its award-winning sister restaurant in Northeast Minneapolis, Momo Sushi, Ama will offer a unique combination of Tibetan and Japanese fare. “Ama” means “mother” in theTibetan language, and in this case, it’s truly a family affair with brothers SonamNyorieand Rinpo Yakteaming up to serve artfully crafted dishes at affordable prices.
Sonam and Rinpo are Tibetan immigrants who came to the US over a decade ago to live the American dream. AMA honors the cuisine of their homeland, while also drawing on Sonam’s skills as a sushi chef — a craft he developed working in multiple sushi restaurants on the east coast and in the Twin Cities. The brother’s started their entrepreneurial journey togetheryears ago, running popular food truck Volcano Hibachi. Rinpo closely consulted on the development ofMomo Sushi and now the brothers are partnered on AMA — making the family business official.
