Want to delight your family and friends with freshly made sushi rolls? Learn how to prepare this traditional Japanese dish from scratch using classic techniques in this sushi making class in Philly!
In this fun, hands-on social cooking class, you’ll learn all the skills needed to make sushi rolls at home, including how to prepare sushi rice, select sushi-grade fish, and add additional tasty neta (ingredients) to enhance your dining experience. You’ll learn to make three types of sushi rolls: California Uramaki, Sake Tartare Maki, and Veggie Futomaki.
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, not hardcore. 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).
If you're looking for fun date night ideas, add a creative twist to your classic sushi night with this hands-on workshop! This fun class is a great way to learn something new and learn the ins and outs of one of the most popular date night meals!

Recent reviews of Sushi Making Class

  • 5/5 from Alex McVeigh, attended Jul 2026: The class was wonderful! Chef Alexander was helpful and funny. My niece and I had a great time and were already looking at other classes.
  • 5/5 from Ronnie Polaneczky, attended Mar 2025: I'm giving five stars bc Chef Alex and his wife were just so darn lovely, and it's clear he knows what he's doing. And my food was delicio9su! But when it comes to atmosphere, I'd give it a four, becaue I think the tables of participamnts need to be set up in a horseshoe arrangement so we can all see what the chef is doing. Also, some fun, upbeat music would've added to the friendly vibe.
  • 5/5 from Nekell Bjorn, attended Jan 2025: The teacher was amazing. Very knowledgeable. His sauces were very good. Appreciated receiving the recipes. The rice was a little mushy but it did have to be prepared ahead of time so I know that's tough. Alex is a pro. Would take his classes again.
  • 5/5 from Doug Zapf, attended Jan 2025: Very informative class with great instruction.
