Durham's events calendar fills up fast — especially around Duke home game weekends, DPAC show seasons, and the spring and fall wedding rush. Reach out as early as possible to lock in your date.
Yes — we serve all of Durham and the surrounding Triangle area, including Downtown Durham, Duke University, Research Triangle Park, Chapel Hill, and beyond.

Absolutely. We offer vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-aware options and can build custom menus around your guests' needs. When you fill out your catering request, please list all food allergies and dietary restrictions — our chef will design a menu that works for everyone at your event.
Our full-service catering includes on-site sushi chefs, a live sushi bar setup, full catering staff, all serving equipment, and a custom menu.

If sushi is the main course, plan for 8–10 pieces (roughly 2 rolls) per person. For cocktail-hour grazing or when sushi is one of several food options, 4–6 pieces per person is usually plenty. Our Balanced Platter (60 pieces) works well for 12–15 guests as an appetizer, and the Full Platter (90 pieces) covers 15 guests when sushi is the star of the meal. Not sure what you need? Call us at 919-302-6988 and we'll help you figure it out.
Yes — a live sushi bar is one of our most popular add-ons for Durham weddings, corporate receptions, and private parties. Our chef sets up at your venue and rolls sushi fresh throughout your event. It becomes a centerpiece experience your guests will be talking about long after the night is over. Contact us to add a live station to your catering package.
Yes — large-scale events are our specialty. We handle events for 500 to 2,500+ guests, including convention catering at the Durham Convention Center, corporate receptions, festivals, and large private events at venues like Bay 7 in the American Tobacco District. Our Corporate Platter (120 rolls, ~720 pieces) is a great starting point, and we build fully custom menus for events at any scale.
Our Light Platter starts at $45 and is great for small gatherings of 6–8 people. For full-service on-site catering with chefs and staff, minimums vary based on event size, location, and date. Reach out via the booking form or call 919-302-6988 for a custom quote.
