Roll up your sleeves and learn how to create your own fresh sushi rolls like a pro in this Japanese cooking class in NYC! If you love sushi, you're in for a treat with this hands-on lesson.
In this highly interactive class, Chef Instructor Himanshu will enrich you with tips and tricks for making delicious sushi rolls, from preparing the perfect sushi rice to cutting the fresh ingredients properly, and the art of rolling. This casual and easy-to-follow class will surely engage all your senses!
All participants will make three variations: California Roll, Spicy Salmon Roll, and seaweed-out Veggie Roll. You are invited to let your creativity flow and try rolling with seaweed both inside and out and mix and match seasonal produce and ingredients to develop your own unique edition.
No experience is required! We provide all the equipment and ingredients, which are easy to find at local markets if you don’t already have them in your home kitchen. Our events are casual and meant to be fun and instructive. This class is designed to be just as fun for the cooking enthusiast who wants to be a part of every step as it is for the first-timer who’s happier observing and assisting (or taste testing).
Please arrive 15 minutes early to check in, especially if you’re part of a large group. Guests will work in groups throughout the class, sharing equipment and ingredients. Outside drinks are not allowed. Drinks are available for purchase from the venue and are not included in the ticket price. 21+ only.

Recent reviews of The Art of Sushi Making Workshop

  • 5/5 from Michael Gallardo, attended Jan 2026: Our instructor was great. Very friendly and knowledgable. He explained to us his background in the culinary world and made instructions very easy to follow. I would take another class with him again!
  • 2/5 from Alex Williams, attended Jan 2025: The teacher, an Indian gentleman, was friendly and personable, but he’s not a trained instructor. And because the class size was too large (26 people), individual assistance was very limited. The teacher gave two brief and slightly disjointed demonstrations (occasionally disappearing into the kitchen with little to no explanation), after which we were more or less left to our own devices. We made three sushi rolls (veg, salmon and shrimp tempura). The quality of the ingredients was average. Because of the size and structure of the class, there’s more downtime than you should be paying for. Making three rolls over two hours is not value for money. Finally, the venue is unusual. The dining room of a three-star Hyatt, whose background music over the speakers was distracting. Over all, an underwhelming experience. If you want to get hands on experience making a variety of different items, there are probably better classes out there.
