YOOSHI SUSHI CATERING & EVENT PRODUCTION 
Rating: 5.0 (8 reviews)
  • Serves Santa Barbara, CA

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.

Fusion Events 
Rating: 5.0 (4 reviews)
  • Starts at $30
  • Serves Santa Barbara, CA

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.

Mr Fresh Sushi Catering 
Rating: 5.0 (2 reviews)
  • Serves Santa Barbara, CA

Mr Fresh Sushi Catering, top-rated sushi catering service in Southern California, offers you an unforgettable sushi experience with our experienced private sushi chefs and high-quality food. With live sushi stations, omakase style and custom menus available, Mr Fresh Catering will make your event shine.

So. Much. Sushi. And it was PERFECT. We hired Mr. Fresh Sushi Catering for our wedding in Los Angeles this past April and honestly… they were one of the best parts of the entire day. We knew we didn’t want a traditional sit-down dinner—we wanted something fun, elegant, and very us. Enter: sushi. From the start, their team was super responsive, easy to work with, and totally got our vision. We went with a stationary appetizer setup so guests could mix, mingle, and grab bites throughout the evening. It worked out beautifully. The sushi? INSANE. So fresh, so flavorful, and beautifully presented. Our guests couldn’t stop talking about the poke cups and the tempura zucchini—who knew that would be such a hit? They also had these little soba noodle cups and grilled yakitori skewers that disappeared fast. And even though it was technically “appetizers,” there was plenty of food. No one left hungry. It felt modern and upscale without being stuffy, and it added such a cool vibe to the reception. We loved how the food brought people together. People still tell us it was one of the best weddings they’ve been to—and honestly, we think the sushi had something to do with that. Highly recommend Mr. Fresh if you want to ditch the boring wedding food and serve something people will actually remember. — Jasmine & Leo
