YOOSHI SUSHI CATERING & EVENT PRODUCTION 

5.0

  • Serves Santa Ynez, 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.

Awarded Best of Zola
Zad catered the sushi at our wedding in March. His trendy presentation and quality choices of fish made it a big hit for our guests. Everyone agreed he was the highlight of our first course. Great team and easy to talk to. Looking forward to more joyous events with Zad by our side.

Fire and wood was one of the most memorable things about my whole wedding. Everyone loved the food! My roots are in the east coast, so when I read about Chef Thomas and saw his food photos, I was drooling with anticipation. I loved what he had to offer on his catering menu but I challenged him to make a few fun twists for me. My close family and friend from NYC/NJ gave it all a chef’s kiss approval. I went home with leftovers and my hubby and I relived the moments for a week! 10/10

Such a unique touch! We really wanted a Spanish jamón at our wedding but had the hardest time finding someone actually trained to cut it until we found Senín from Casa Strada. Since he himself is Spanish we knew he’d understand exactly what we wanted. He had different budget options for the ham itself, took care of everything, and cut some beautiful plates of ham.

Jazzy was professional in communication and following up with our requests. We wanted the menu to be half vegan and half non-vegan and it delievered. Our guests couldn’t decide what their favorite items were. I still dream about the onion tarts and crab cakes!! They were an amazing part of our special day and I would recommend them to anyone. The food was so flavorful and was served timely. We love Anjahles!!!
