Chef Josh is amazing! We did a birthday party for mom at home and Chef Josh created some amazing sushi plates as well as rolls and cooked fish. He brought all the needed ingredients and worked around our small-ish kitchen very effectively. Also the presentation of the food was great! Will definitely have him over again for a party at home with catered sushi. Chef Josh - we're your newest fans! read more

Kaiyo Sushi Catering - Personal Chefs Near Me

Josh and his assistant were so chill! My friends and I reserved a private sushi rolling course. Not only did they come to us, they also brought all the materials with them! All we supplied was a kitchen space and a hungry stomach. He told us it takes him at least a week of preparing for each reservation, from searching for quality fish to prepping cucumber, all the way to having steaming hot sushi rice and complimentary miso soup. He and his assistance went above and beyond in their patience, attentiveness, and definitely passed the vibe check. read more

Joshua is an excellent chef and teacher. We did his "how i roll" workshop and it was equally fun, educational and delicious! He adds modern twists to food, is easy to communicate and plan with and fun to be around. He also brings all supplies and does the clean up! Excellent one stop sushi class experience! Highly recommend it! read more

​ You ​ Absolutely INCREDIBLE experience!! I cannot recommend this more highly. From start to finish, working with Kaiyo was a seamless and enjoyable experience. Chef Joshua was able to answer all of my (many) questions patiently and with such a high degree of professionalism. They do an amazing job with their menu and fully customize it to whatever your needs/preferences are. Chef Joshua included vegetarian rolls at our request and even doubled up on sashimi since that is my Dad's favorite food. The dining experience was absolutely magnificent as well. Chef came to our house and got right to work. He was more than happy to let us observe as he prepped all the food and again answered any curiosities we had. The sushi itself, aside from being delicious, was absolutely beautiful. The presentations, the colors, the sauces, etc. It almost was a shame to eat it! But we did and WOW! Such vibrant flavors and Chef Joshua clearly takes immense pride in his craft. Each piece stood out in flavor and presentation. We really could not have been happier and even had plenty of leftovers! The amount of food you get for the price and experience is 100% worth it. I could NOT recommend this higher. read more

We got a couple platters of nigiri and rolls for a small party and it was all amazing! The attention to detail and quality of ingredients elevated this above other sushi. Each nigiri was prepared perfectly, including light seating, seasoning, and scoring depending on the fish. The spicy tuna rolls were unlike any I've ever had, so flavorful, and featured perfect seared tuna over the top. Communication was prompt and clear, and pricing was reasonable especially for the amazing quality. Overall exceeded our expectations and I will absolutely be doing this again! read more

I hosted Friendsgiving for 20 of our friends and I was looking for a fun at-home experience. I found Josh through a friend and decided to give him a try. He made 300 pieces of sushi, lettuce wraps and poke. It was the perfect amount of sushi, but had some leftover appetizers. The sushi was a hit! All of the food was mouth-watering and he provided all the chopsticks, ginger and Wasabi. All my friends were impressed with his presentation and professionalism. I highly recommend Josh and his team for your next pretty. It was so worth it and we will definitely use him again. read more

I booked a private Sushi Workshop for my friend's housewarming party in early November. It was a fantastic way to reconnect with my friends after almost a whole year of social distancing! I didn't have very high expectations for a beginner's course sushi but I was mindblown at how delicious everything tasted! My group made 4 different rolls including a California, Dragon, Spicy Tuna and a Hand Roll. Joshua taught us step-by-step on how to make and cut each style of roll. He was very informative, patient, helpful and entertaining with his instructions. I had an extra specialty roll added to the menu for an additional cost called the Salmon Ceviche roll. My friends took turns searing the Salmon. It was so worth the price because the fish used were all high quality, freshly cut in front of us and melted in the mouth! The sushi never fell apart with each bite. All of us had such a positive and memorable experience. Joshua was very accommodating to our group. Everything including ingredients, cutlery, supplies and tableware were all provided for and cleaned up afterwards. All we had to do was show up! We all got to bring home our very own individual bamboo rolling mats and recipe book! I highly recommend Kaiyo Sushi Catering and booking Joshua if you're looking for something fun and new for your event! read more

I hired Chef Joshua to cater a birthday party for my husband. Chef was wonderful to work with, super flexible, and had great suggestions for crowd pleasers. The food was outstanding - it was the talk of my party. I will absolutely hire Kaiyo Catering again. Thanks Chef! read more

Josh was seriously nothing short of amazing. Being new parents, it is extremely difficult to get out these days, so why not bring the ULTIMATE experience to your home? It was my husband's birthday and we couldn't find a babysitter, so I thought why not? From the menu, to the experience, the presentation, the plating, the conversation, but most importantly, the TASTE - everything was DELICIOUS. I'm not just saying that either! Josh satisfied all of my sushi cravings especially since being pregnant, I didn't have sushi for almost a year! We couldn't have asked for more. We were really intrigued about how he found his passion and you could tell he was passionate about his food the way he spoke about it. I'd say, if Joshua was to ever open a restaurant in the Seattle area, Seattle should be prepared as the Seattle food industry is missing refined food such as this. Highly recommend and I would book again in a HEARTBEAT. Thank you for giving us parents the perfect date night with our newborn :) read more
