The teacher was clearly an expert. Good instruction and funny, friendly guy. He wasn’t afraid to answer any questions, even after the class was over, and made sure no one fell behind. The sushi was delicious. Five stars easily.

The instructor was inviting, funny, invested, and informative. The food was phenomenal.
4/5 stars because the knives he gave us very much needed to be sharpened with more than just a honing rod.
