We did the premium omakase at home and added six specialty menu items, and it ended up being more than enough food for 25 people. The chefs were incredibly fun and professional, keeping the food coming at a great pace throughout the night. My favorites were the uni pasta, miso cod, hamachi with serrano peppers, and the blue crab hand roll. I'd absolutely do this experience again! read more

For all our sushi needs I recommend chef Vu. He does catering, parties, and you can order for pick up. Recently, my husband and I just wanted some sashimi at home for lunch so we placed an order for pick up. I like that he sends you you a menu of prices and what is offered. For $150 we ended up with so much sashimi which looked more for 4 people instead of two. Everything we delicious and definitely affordable. I loved his bluefin tuna and toro. The salmon and hamachi were also really good as well. We were both really pleased and would be definitely ordering from him again. I highly recommend. read more

We wanted top-notch sushi for our anniversary dinner. The omakase places around us were closed due to the pandemic and for some reason, most omakase places are closed on Mondays which is the day of our anniversary. Thank goodness my boyfriend found Vu through a friend's recommendation. Vu usually operates his catering business on weekends only but he opened up his services to us on a Monday for our anniversary. I thought that was VERY thoughtful and kind of him. He also offers us free sake and beer as a complimentary. The sushi we ordered from Vu was: Nigiri Sets (Salmon Yellowtail, Toro) Sashimi Sets (Salmon, Toro, Yellowtail, Scallops) Firecracker Roll The nigiri and sashimi were tasty and it melts in your mouth. The firecracker roll was delicious and had the right amount of sauce so you are able to taste the spicy tuna. Most firecracker roll I had before has a lot of sauces that it overpowers the taste. Overall, we loved our anniversary dinner! Thank you, Vu for your services and we look forward to ordering from you again! read more

I first met Vu Nyguen six years ago when I was interviewing catering companies for a Hawaiian themed birthday party. While other catering groups sent me proposals for the party Vu made an appointment and met me at our home to make sure everything could be laid out properly. He had great ideas and listened to everything we wanted and made it even better. The party was a huge success and the food and service was amazing... Our friends still talk about it. Now Sushi Studio Arts is our go to for parties. Daughter's graduation, company business, and just for fun. We have referred them to many of our friends and no one has ever been disappointed. The fish is fresh, the sushi is creative and displayed perfectly, the pricing is amazing, and they leaves my home and kitchen cleaner than when they arrived. I cannot recommend them enough I wish there was an option for more stars. read more

Very beautiful and amazing designed Sushi! Extremely fresh and delicious! I hired Chef Vu for a company party based on a referral and I was skeptical about hiring someone I've never tried before. Chef Vu and I started with a few calls to discuss what I wanted and then we met to go over the details of the menu, decorations and what I wanted. He gave me a lot of advices and recommendations, which I took since I wasn't quite sure what I was looking for in regards to different types of sushi, except for high quality delicious fresh food. The day of the party I walked into the banquet room and the sushi was beautifully laid out on the table with Chef Vu standing behind it in his uniform and equipment, along with his workers. Chef Vu supplied the decorations, silverwares, utensils and everything else that was needed. It was also agreed upon that he and his employees would be there until the party was over to do special orders and to ensure that the sushi would never run out. The party lasted for 5 hours and it was a huge success. I had numerous people approached me to tell me how wonderful and fresh the sushi was and how they enjoyed everything. I even had quite a few people asked me for Chef Vu's number so they can hire him themselves because not only did they enjoy his presentation and sushi, they really liked his personality and how profession he and his staff were. It really made me feel good that everyone had such a good time and they enjoyed the presentation and food so much. Chef Vu is extremely professional and the attention him and his staff took over my guest was exceptional. His sushi was of the best quality and the presentation he made was beautiful! I will definitely hire him again when I have another party. I think the next time I'll try the naked sushi. It should be very entertaining and I'm sure my guest will talk about it for days! read more

Omg! If you want to throw the party of the century and have everyone you know raving about the food, then hire Vu!!!! We threw a housewarming/engagement party at the beginning of March and Vu catered for us. He brought everything he needed, worked in our open kitchen during the party and kept it spotless. In fact, I think it added to the party to see him rolling the sushi fresh and on the spot! Let's not forget to mention the sushi!!! Top notch!!!! Better than any sushi restaurant I have ever been to hands down. I can't thank Vu and sushi arts studio enough. Hire them, you won't regret it. If you have any questions feel free to ask me offline for a referral, I can tell you what we ordered. read more

Called/ texted and left a message...never heard back...guess they didn't need my business.

Vu Nguyen is one of the best Sushi Chefs, and event planner ever! He is professional, and artistic, and he sure knows sushi! I got to see him at work at a fund-raising event, and loved the sushi we had. But more so, I thought the idea of having sushi chefs come out to your house/event is a funfilled experience! And was I right or what! Chef Vu is courteous and professional. He calls, understands the needs, then sends out a detailed party planning proposals, where he lists details of: hours of service provided, options in menus , options of flowers, themes, etc. And most importantly he keeps his word and quality of work, service, and food. If you want something unique, and if you like/love sushi, THIS is as good as it gets! read more

I wish they had the option to chose 10 stars on here!!! My husband and I went to a party that was catered by Sushi Studio and it blew us away!! We are VERY picky about our sushi and honestly, we could NOT get enough! The sushi was so fresh...you could taste the freshness in each bite. To top it off, the presentation was beautiful! I was engaged in a conversation with another guest at the party and she mentioned to me that she was Vegan. A few minutes later, the Chef was handing her an avocado roll! What amazing service! Service like that is nearly impossible to find now a days. I cannot say enough about Sushi Studio...sushi will definitely be on the menu at our next party! Thank you again for the amazing food and service. read more

Last year, I had the opportunity to meet the fine gentlemen who run/own Sushi Studio Arts at the 626 market located in Arcadia,CA. To include, I must say my fellow yelpers, these fine gentlemen are kind, welcoming, and most humble to those who are looking to experience Gourmet Sushi! I had the spicy tuna hand roll as well as the spicy salmon poke, and they were both incredible! I went back for more and I did not have anything else besides Sushi Studio Arts! I recommend this place to anyone interested in Sushi, a fine gourmet experience, and also to those who enjoy the Sushi experience! read more

I made a very last minute decision to have a 60th birthday party for my husband. As in, 48 hours before! A neighbor and friend referred me to Vu as she had used him several times in the past. He happened to be available and could not have been more gracious and kind in helping me to pull a plan together on such short notice. Best decision ever! Guests were wowed and the sushi was amazing! Vu was the main attraction for sure. It added such a fun element to the night and I believe many of our guests plan to call on his services soon. I would highly recommend Sushi Studio Arts! read more

I can't say enough great things about Vu and his team. They have come out for 3 parties for us now and each one was fabulous! They bring the flowers, plates, candles, everything to set the tone, and then there is the sushi. It tastes phenomenal and is often a work of art!! If you or some of your guests don't love sushi, you can ask him for some cooked options as well. We have also done the "naked sushi" where there is a model in addition to the regular party. It is classy and fun, and our friends have gotten a real kick out of the experience. If you are looking for an enchanted evening for two, a party for a larger group, or a once in a lifetime experience, sit back, relax and let Vu and his crew take care of everything! read more

Amazing! He had served the freshest salmon I'd ever had at a friend's private party. My favorite was the wonton poke salad, so good!

Great experience. Chef Vu went out of his way to make this an unfit get able experience. The party was full of new gastronomic experiences like Scottish salmon and live sea urchin. He explained in detail the whole process for sushi making including, results rolls and hand rolls he made his own sauces including an amazing home made soy sauce. An unforgettable experience. read more

If I could give SSA more stars I would... I hired Vu and his team to cater my wedding a while ago. We had 200+ attend and had a second caterer to give the guests a variety to choose from. Vu and his team went above and beyond my expectations. He is very professional and personable. He is a culinary artist who makes an effort to deliver perfection. Everything he creates is so appealing to the eye and the palate. I've also attended his yearly December events and they're always so much fun. He always impresses and never disappoints. Sushi Studio Arts is definitely recommended for small to large parties. I can't wait to hire them again! Such a fun time with the Sushi Studio Arts crew. If you want something fun and casual like "learn how to make your own sushi" parties to "formal sushi parties", Vu is your go-to person. His product is always fresh and you can definitely tell he is very passionate and loves what he does. read more

Came here during the 626 market, looked it up wishing they had a store location because the hand rolls were amazing. Spicy tuna was spicy and neat and so tasty! Only $4 for one and $6 for two.

We hired Vu to cater for our wedding on May 16, 2015 and let me say it's worth EVERY penny! We had a backyard wedding so we were able to bring in our own vendors to use, and since my hubby and I LOVE sushi, we decided from the very beginning that we wanted to have sushi on our special day, and we knew it wasn't going to be cheap, but afterwards we were so happy we did! The food was AMAZING! I got compliments all night from everyone, and the sushi line was definitely the longest line out of all the other food stations we had. We had Vu design a menu for us based on the types of sushi/rolls we liked, and we were 100% happy with everything! For cocktail hour, Vu and his chefs made AMAZING Tuna Tataki sliders and Salmon Poke. They were flying off the counter! For the reception, we had Yellowtail/Salmon nigiri, Spicy Tuna roll, Crunchy roll, and he gave us the California roll as a complimentary item. We even asked Vu to get us pickled wasabi, and he found it! He also gave us the leftovers so that we can do sushi night at home. Vu also provided all the necessary plating and everything was beautifully presented. We saw a lot of people go back for extra sushi and at the end of the night, Vu had extra wontons leftover and he generously gave them to us. I can't rave enough, and if you ever want sushi at any event, you must go with Vu! He is professional and will work hard to make sure you're 100% happy. Thank you again Vu for making our special day that much more special. I think our guests will remember all the wonderful food you provided for our wedding day. :) read more
