I truly enjoyed the intensive learning experience provided at this unique sushi school. Every day was an adventure and there was a wide range of topics covered. I feel so accomplished having learned so much and mastered so many skills.

The Sushi Chef Institute is a wonderful place with a fabulous staff. I have been to several sushi making classes over the past few years and have loved each one. Each class has been enjoyable – from the sad and deformed jackolantern roll I made in my first Halloween class a couple years back, to the beautiful heart shaped everything I made in the Valentine’s Day class the other day. Chef Andy is a brilliant teacher (and so patient with everyone, especially when you get rice EVERYWHERE because you didn’t wet your hands well enough) and explains his process thoroughly as he goes. Obviously a mastermind with all his knowledge and the way he uses a knife so effortlessly and flawlessly will make you do a double take. I highly recommend all of their classes whether you’re going solo, as a couple, with friends, or with work. The themed ones for different holidays are especially fun! The staff is fantastic, especially Amie! She helped me complete a crazy ask I had a couple months ago…I rented out their green room and used it as a meeting space / conference room for my department’s annual meeting, and then we moved over to the kitchen for a sushi making class as part of our team building event after the meeting. It was an excellent and memorable experience, and the entire department loved it. Everyone had an outstanding time, as they had never done a sushi class before. Great for building morale and a team culture for sure!!
I started the Sushi Institute today and had a great experience working with Yumi prior to starting, her communication and organizational skills are top notch! Chef Andy's program from classroom to kitchen was on point and to be able to taste test your days work was a great experience. I am looking forward to all that I am going to learn and achieve over the next 2 months!
Thank you Andy Sensei, Saburo Sensei, Shinchan and Amie for making my experience at Sushi Chef institute an unforgettable one! I am so glad I got to learn the fundamentals of Japanese cooking. Before the class, I was quite confused about Japanese cooking but it was simpler than I had anticipated. I am glad I chose this school thanks to Amie’s very good marketing/social media/advertising skills, she is always there to answer all my questions before I arrived. All in all if you are planning to start your sushi chef / sushi restaurant career, look no further! You get to learn everything and after graduation you will have unlimited ideas to create any Japanese dish! Get ready to work hard and pay attention in class! it can get tiring but it will be worth it, keep taking notes and record videos to help you in the future! 2 months goes past very quickly. Andy Sensei’s book is very good as well! I can’t wait to open my own sushi bar soon. _
This place is so awesome! I loved the entire experience. Such a great opportunity to up your sushi-making skills!
