Salmon and tuna nigiri for NYC sushi catering FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about booking a live sushi chef for your New York event.

What is live sushi catering?

Instead of delivering pre-made trays, we send a professional sushi chef with a complete station to your event. Rolls, nigiri and sashimi are prepared in front of your guests and served fresh.

What is included in each package?

Every package includes signature rolls, classic rolls and a nigiri & sashimi selection prepared live by our chef. See the full item-by-item list on our packages page.

How much does sushi catering cost?

Our grand Matsu package is $2,000. The Ume and Take packages are quoted for your event — contact us with your date, guest count and location and we will send a proposal.

How many guests does each package serve?

It depends on your guests' appetites and whether other food is served. Share your guest count and the format of your event, and we will recommend the right tier or a combination of tiers.

Which areas do you serve?

We are based in Manhattan at 767 9th Ave, New York, NY 10019 and cater throughout New York City — Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, the Bronx and Staten Island. For Long Island, Westchester and New Jersey, please ask about your location.

What do I need to provide?

A table or counter for the sushi station and access to a nearby sink. Our chef brings the fish, rice, tools and serving pieces. For buildings with a doorman or loading dock, please share access details in advance.

How far in advance should I book?

As early as possible, especially for weekends and the holiday season. Contact us with your date and we will confirm availability right away.

Can you accommodate allergies or dietary preferences?

Please tell us about any allergies or preferences when you book. We can adjust selections where possible, for example adding vegetarian rolls. Note that our kitchen works with fish, shellfish, sesame and soy.

What if a fish is unavailable on my date?

Premium fish follows the season and the market. If an item is unavailable, we substitute a fish of equal or higher grade and let you know before your event.
