YOOSHI SUSHI CATERING & EVENT PRODUCTION

I had my first shot at managing a sushi restaurant when I took over an empty section of the family restaurant and introduced sushi to my customers. It was a challenge that I will never regret accepting. It was fun, a lot of fun! I had the opportunity to work with some really talented and creative chefs. I quickly learned that it’s not just about having fresh fish anymore. Sushi dining has transformed into a culture. A culture built by imagination and creativity. With the help of GD and the support of my family, I took all that experience and fused it with my imagination and created Yooshi Sushi Catering and Event Production.

I founded Fusion Events to answer a call that I heard. It was that feeling that I could found a business that would push boundaries and allow me to deliver what my clients wanted. Food and Events that are Fresh, Bold, and Memorable.

I don't even remember how many came up to me at the wedding to compliment the food, but it was a lot. They all started with “usually wedding food isn’t great, but ALL of the food has been so good.” ALSO, when we sat down for dinner Felicia brought us a plate of apps because we were too busy during cocktail hour to have any and she wanted to make sure we got some too. I loved that so much, just so thoughtful. So thank you Fusion catering for a great wedding experience.

With live sushi stations, omakase style and custom menus available, Mr Fresh Catering will make your event shine.

A Dream Wedding Brought to Life Through Sushi Artistry We cannot thank Mr. Fresh Sushi Catering enough for the unforgettable culinary experience they provided at our wedding! From our very first tasting to the final roll served on our big day, their team was professional, passionate, and beyond talented. Our wedding took place at the Adamson House in Malibu, and the setting was already beautiful—but Mr. Fresh brought it to the next level with a stunning sushi and appetizer spread that completely wowed our guests. We chose a stationary appetizer format to allow for a relaxed, social vibe, and it worked perfectly. The sushi was incredibly fresh, artfully presented, and bursting with flavor. Guests are still raving about the spicy tuna poke cones, the live sushi station, and the yakitori skewers that were grilled to perfection. Even our friends who aren't huge sushi lovers went back for seconds (and thirds). The presentation was elegant and fit seamlessly with our theme—modern, clean, and full of coastal charm. The Mr. Fresh team worked closely with us to customize the menu and made sure every dietary preference was considered. Their professionalism, creativity, and care truly made our wedding feel unique and personal. If you're considering a sushi-forward catering option for your event—look no further.

Nomada | Gourmet Taco Catering

  • Starts at $10,000
  • Serves Goleta, CA for additional fees

Nomada is boutique taco catering service based in Irvine specializing in traditional yet modern Mexican cuisine. We are passionate about quality ingredients, exquisite presentation and unparalleled service.

Awarded Best of Zola
My cousin, giving advice to me for my wedding, said, "No one remembers the food at weddings, its just chicken or fish, don't sweat it", and I took that as a challenge. With a sizeable contingent of my family having celiac disease, and being gluten and dairy intolerant myself, I wanted to find a meal that was majority restriction-diet friendly without non-restricted guests noticing. NOMADA's menu was perfect for our crowd - the passed apps, mobile kitchen taco bar, and all the fixings, sides, and beverages were all gluten and dairy free, and no one with celiac got sick. In addition, our venue did not have a kitchen, so their mobile outdoor kitchen set-up meant we had fresh, hot tortillas and tacos, instead of food cooked offside and reheated right before service. It was a smash hit - Guests went back for seconds and thirds. Salsas ranged from mild to medium spiciness, but were all so flavorful they didn't need to be spicier, and the yellow salsa especially was the talk of the night. The service, presentation, taste, and everything was perfect; at least two friends who attended the wedding are planning to use them for future events they were so impressed. The appetizer meatballs - a can't miss.
