We hired Roshi Experience and Chef Zico for a bachelorette party in Palm Desert, and it was beyond incredible. We found them through other great reviews and are so glad we did! I shared a few notes about what the bride likes when it comes to sushi, and Chef Daniel curated the most delicious, beautifully presented, and crowd-pleasing menu. Every bite was outstanding, and the entire experience felt so special and personalized. The presentation was stunning, and our whole group is still talking about it. We'd book them again in a heartbeat--truly a highlight of the weekend.

Daniel and the team at Roshi are fantastic! He catered our New Year's Eve party and the food was a smashing success. The sushi was fresh and delicious. Everything was made on-site and the presentation was beautiful. My guests could not stop complimenting the quality and taste of the sushi. We got a combo of rolls and nigiri, and everyone agreed it was omakase-level restaurant-quality. Thank you Daniel and I hope to see you again when my friends book you for their events!!

Thank you chef Daniel and chef Zico for cooking our party of 10 a delicious 5 course dinner! These guys were really professional and super chill to work with. Everything from costs to menu options were communicated clearly from the start. They showed up early to prep and set the table with plate ware and a cute custom menu. I couldn't have wanted anything more to celebrate my husband's birthday! Highly recommend!

We hired Chef Daniel and Chef Randolph for a private dinner at home after our tiny wedding. We wanted to do something different than your typical wedding reception dinner, but this really exceeded all of our expectations. I don't think we could have even gotten food this good for the price if we had gone to a restaurant, and being able to have it at the comfort of our home was even better. I'd recommend them to anyone and am really grateful that they madd our wedding celebration so special and memorable. Pre-event: Chef Daniel was communicative and clear over email. We discussed the menu and made accommodations for a vegetarian and a toddler in our group. Day of: The chefs arrived on time and got promptly to work. They were so great at pacing each course and explaining every dish. They made extra of the vegetarian courses so the broader group could try. Everything was delicious but my favorites were the salmon carpaccio and the scallop nigiri in the omakase tasting. They were even kind enough to get a little extra tamagoyaki for the toddler, which she loved. After: They cleaned up everything, and left the house cleaner than it was before. The floor was swept, the counters spotless and the trash taken out. It was so nice not to have to think about anything. We loved the event and would love to book them again in the future!!

After having our first child, my husband and I have definitely cut back on how often we go out to eat. Because of this, I thought it would be a really cool experience to have a chef come to us and cook an amazing meal in our home. When I reached out to Roshi Experience I didn't quite know what to expect, but Chef Daniel responded right away and we started the process of planning a private in-home dinner for my husband and I. Everything was smooth and easy. I let Chef Daniel know of any food allergies as well as food preferences and he came up with a beautiful 12-course menu incorporating a variety of unique dishes. These included sashimi, nigiri, wagyu, Chilean sea bass, and many other dishes with high quality ingredients. The morning of our dinner Chef Daniel sourced all of the ingredients for our menu ensuring that everything was as fresh as possible. He made small adjustments with ingredients that were too good to pass up at the market and selected three bottles of sake that he thought would pair well with the entire meal. Chef Daniel then came to our home and started all of his prep work. Throughout the evening he kept our kitchen organized and clean, there was never a mess! Dinner was ready to start early so we dived right in. Each course was immaculate, unique, and the progression kept us engaged with lots of changes in textures and flavors. When dinner was complete Chef Daniel made an amazing chirashi bowl with all of the leftover ingredients for lunch the next day and cleaned our kitchen to pristine condition. There's something about good conversation and good food that just enhances the quality of a dining experience, and Chef Daniel delivered just that! We will definitely be doing more dinners like this from Roshi Experience thanks to the wonderful meal provided by Chef Daniel.

Wow, what a delicious sushi dinner and amazing service and presentation to go with it. My sister hired Roshi to prepare a sushi dinner for our party of 13 and boy did they deliver! The food was impeccable. There was so much variety and the fish was amazingly fresh. Every single thing was delicious and we all ate way more than we should have. I would not hesitate to recommend Roshi to anyone in the LA area looking for an amazing sushi experience. They brought everything to prepare and present fresh made sushi and also did an impeccable job cleaning up so we didn't have to worry about a thing.

Chef Daniel creating his magic!

Chef Daniel exceeded our expectations! What a special and memorable evening with friends at our new Malibu beach house! His food was absolutely amazing! He curated a special customized menu for us. Everything was over the top delicious! From the Edamame to the tasty Baked Crab Hand rolls, to the Yellowtail Hamachi w Jalapeño to the Crispy Rice Spicy Tuna, to the Japanese A5 Wagyu, to the divine Matcha crème brûlée, we enjoyed every single incredible bite. We would highly recommend the Roshi Experience. We will 100% have Chef Daniel cook for us again. Thank you Chef Daniel!!! See you very soon!!

Roshi Experience

Chef Daniel and his team did a phenomenal job for my son, Jayden's 16th surprise birthday party! My son has been a sushi connoisseur since he was 6 --we even travel the world on the search for the best sushi spots. We all agree Chef Daniel's menu, expertise + fresh, unique bites are by far the best sushi we have ever had! Chef Daniel is friendly, personable, professional, passionate and an exquisite chef. If you want to wow your guests and their palates hire Chef Daniel --we will for years to come.

Custom menu

I was fortunate to be invited to one of Chef Josh's tasting events by a friend. Chef Josh welcome us to his home and we were seated at a well decorated table. The ambience was amazing, with soft music playing in the background, a little lantern at the center of the table, and personalized menus with our individual names on them designating our seat. The sake was abundant and we drank through a couple carafes as we settled in and got acquainted with each other, as we waited for the course meal to conmence. The first course was a soba noodle dish, which was light but also filling, which is very fitting for an appetizer. Followed by this was a seafood ceviche with scallop, shrimp and snapper topped with wonton chips and caviar. This was extremely tasty and maybe my favorite course of the meal. After this, we were able to enjoy some sushi for their "Omakase Nigiri Tour". My favorite was the Caviar Chu Toro. The sushi was extremely delicious and presented on a little board with decorative garnishes. In this course, we also had fresh wasabi grated and ginger placed on to our sauce dishes by Chef Lexx and Ronan who accompanied Chef Josh. In the questionnaire we filled out for the menu, there was a question about a random ingredient we wanted incorporated into the meal. I suggested salted duck egg, and it was a pleasant surprise to see it incorporated into the entree which was A5 Wagyu Yakiniku topped with salted duck egg and caviar! This dish was so rich and tasty and eating the salted duck egg gave me a nostalgic feeling of home cooking! We were all feeling pretty full by this time, but the dessert was too good to pass up. It was a layered matcha and vanilla panna cotta, topped with mango. THIS WAS DELICIOUS. Chef Josh said it was his first time making panna cotta but he nailed it. I wish I could have this every week, to be honest. I didn't leave a single bite. We all finished the dinner with a glass of wine. All in all, I had an amazing experience and met some amazing people. Shout out to Chef Josh, Chef Lexx, and Ronan from the Roshi team for executing an amazing dining experience. Out sake cups were never empty and we left full, satisfied, and unable to stop talking about every course!

Sushi margaritas was so yummy
Tawnie B.

Would give them 6 stars if allowed. Seriously such a fun experience. Our chefs Josh and Randolph arrived on time, prepared a delicious dinner, and left the kitchen spotless. They were professional, personable, and made sure we had a great time. Can't wait to taste their cuisine again. Thanks Roshi for such an unforgettable experience.

Lea was incredibly kind, gracious, and easy to work with throughout the entire process. At one point, we even had to cancel because we were dealing with internet issues at the venue, and she was so understanding. Once we confirmed the event was back on, I reached back out and she made everything seamless. The food was AMAZING. Literally everyone came up to me during the event to say how good it was. People were going back for seconds and asking where the food was from. One of my favorite parts of the experience was getting to give Filipino food space in a corporate setting and seeing how well received it was. Hallelumpia absolutely delivered.

Highly recommend--great food and service!

In this class you will learn everything you wanted to know about BBQ from selecting your meats, trimming the meat (fat, etc) rubs, injections, sauces, times and temperatures of cooking, different woods smokers etc. different regions and styles of BBQ. There is so much more. You learn to love yourself and others. No matter what part of the world we come from we are all the same. Food is one of the best ways to bring everyone together as one. Throughout the class, you get to sample different items. Save room for the huge spread served at lunch. The leftovers are evenly boxed up for everyone to take home. Included in the class is lifetime technical support if you have any questions. You also keep your apron, class book, graduation certificate, leftovers, and a bag of rub for your homework assignment. I highly recommend this class for all. Harry is a genuine person, down to earth, and a funny guy. You will learn so much, enjoy some great food, and have great memories.

Do not use this catering company. This is the first Yelp…read morereview I've ever written. And its a long one but so many things went wrong... Its been a few months since I used their service but I am still so angry about everything that went horribly wrong. I own a game store that was hosting a big fancy event. I have used many caterers and food trucks for various events and have never experienced such a lack of professionalism. We run 2 locations and host events several days a week so I have a lot of experience with this sort of thing. I had been communicating with the owner (Kristina) for several months about what we needed for our event. The event was for 2 separate days back to back for 25 people each day. After many email threads and phone conversations confirming exactly what was needed and was paid for well in advance, she requested we pick up our food as she could not deliver it. My employee arrived to pick up our food at a different event they were catering for and they were met by Kristina's very stressed out employees who informed my employee that they only had a quarter of the food we ordered and that they would have to substitute our vegetarian option for a ground beef chili that they had been serving at their other event. The employees of Kristina were mortified and so apologetic. They said they weren't going to charge us extra for the chili (which was a relief since I HAD ALREADY PAID FOR THE FOOD I ORDERED AND DIDNT GET) Her employees also informed us in that moment that Kristina had no-call, no-showed this event they were supposed to be running. She also was not answering anybody's calls all day long. My employee had to rush order a vegetarian option for 12 people from Olive Garden moments before the start of our event, greatly bringing up the cost for my company for this event. About an hour before my event on day 2 she called me and said she wanted to charge me for the chili and that if I wanted any food for my second event I would have to pay her a second time. I broke in that moment. I was so mad. I explained very clearly that I had already paid her for the food I had ordered. They did not have the food I had ordered. It was very clear in every message to and from her EXACTLY what I needed from the very beginning and I still don't understand why she thought I owed her more money. She refused to give me my food for my day 2 and I had to make the food myself with all this additional stress of this huge event already looming over me. She was so mean to me.. I understand that I was frustrated but she was yelling at me and practically threatening me. Also, the food we DID get from her for our first day was stone cold. It was a breaded chicken and it was soggy breading and cold-cold. Just save yourself the trouble and pick a different catering company.

It truly felt like we had family there helping us host such a special day. They brought such a warm, welcoming energy that immediately put us at ease. They went above and beyond with their setup, taking the time to make sure their tables matched our wedding theme perfectly. Every detail was thoughtfully done, and it really elevated the overall look of our event. Our guests couldn't believe Max's was the one to set up their own tables. My husband and I absolutely loved it! You can tell they take pride not just in their food, but in the entire experience they provide. And the food was absolutely amazing! Everything was fresh, flavorful, and made with love and care. Our guests couldn't stop raving about it all night so many people went back for seconds (and thirds) and kept asking who we booked. That alone says everything. They were also incredibly attentive throughout the event, making sure everyone was taken care of and that everything ran smoothly. It made such a difference being able to relax and enjoy my wedding without worrying about a thing. I'm beyond grateful we chose them for our event. They exceeded all expectations, and I would recommend them to anyone looking for not only delicious food, but an amazing, stress-free experience. Truly unforgettable!

Once the party was over they packed up our leftovers and handed it over in a cute bag. Overall such a great experience and I can't recommend Max's Tacos enough. Thank you guys!
