“Since we enjoyed them for my husband's 30th, I decided to book them for my baby shower yesterday. They were a BIG hit at my shower. Everyone enjoyed the tacos, the beans, the rice, the salsa & the horchata. I highly recommend them for any party :)“
“My company gets monthly catering from Erhart's, which is a quality product each month and higher quality customer service! In addition to the monthly catering, I ordered additional box lunches for a separate function which came with that same high quality! Tanya and the staff there do amazing things in and out of the kitchen and I look forward to my next grilled sirloin & brie boxed lunch!“
“Tacos Zapata Catered our 11th Annual Holiday Party for our Staff and Professionals. They showed up early and on time. The Zapata staff were very kind and welcoming. They were such a great addition to our party. The set up was clean, and the tacos were absolutely delicious! Mouth watering. Our guests talked about how yummy the tacos were as they were walking out the door at the end of the party. I absolutely recommend Taco Zapata“
“It was recommended and was my first time trying this place. No regrets! Food - I ordered a grilled cheese bowl. It comes with 4 pieces of grilled sliced cheese, two types of seasoned rice, hummus and salad. It was a perfect size for me. Salad was crunchy, everything tasted freshly prepared and delicious! Service - I can't ask better! I received friendly, welcoming and perfect service! I'm so glad that I tried this place out. I'll definitely come back again and this place is highly recommended to everyone. There are 2 other locations as well, just to mention. It's really worth trying, if you haven't tried yet.“
“We ordered catering from Kannappa with various dietary restrictions, and he flawlessly delivered everything. The food was exceptional, with several guests commenting that it was the best they've ever tasted in Orange County.Vegetarian options: Large authentic vegetarian options.Dietary restrictions: No onion garlic, no nuts in few items, no chick peas“
“Decided to check this place out based on reviews. I wasn't disappointed. Got the California Burrito, and it's huge. Ended up sharing with my roommate, and he absolutely loved it. The service was amazing, and the lady that helped us was very friendly and patient. Im definitely coming back, and going to try more of the menu. Definitely recommend!!“

“Matt & the team at Paracel Seafood went above and beyond to ensure my celebration was everything I hoped it would be. From the tasting, decor, food to music, everything exceeded my expectations. I received the highest level of feedback from my guests regarding the food (lobster noodles and crab soup was delicious) and the drinks (specialty cocktails). Matt's incredible MC and DJ's skills also did not go unnoticed. Several guests noted his positive energy and warm personality really added to the event. I can't imagine him not being part of our event. I would look no further and book your next event at Paracel Seafood. Thank you again so much for everything!“
“The food was Soo good. The place felt like we were eating at someone's home but the food was top restaurant quality. We'll definitely be back. We got the bacon appetizer and my husband got the tri tip and eggs and I got the sticky ribs. Definitely recommend.“
“TMTC catered my event 2/25/24. The response and customer service from when reached out to when they came onsite was above and beyond. They answered every question and were very accommodating and kind when I had changes to be made to my menu. Over the phone/online service was always friendly. I had a lot of changes with my menu requests and guest count and every time I reached out to make those changes they never made me feel like I was asking too much. The food was great. My guest enjoyed themselves Thank you for the amazing service“
“I helped set up the event center for a quince. Ms. Roberta was there every step of the way, making sure we had everything we needed. She loan us her cart and kept checking on us. The venue is beautiful. There is plenty of room for the dance floor and photo booth. The parking lot isn't very big but plenty of room on the side street. If you are looking for a nice and clean venue with wonderful and hard working staff, Azar Event Center is a perfect location.“
“Thank you JASSY'S SWEETS for the DELICIOUS PASTRIES they were all amazing & finally I found a good Pecan.I got Walnut Brownie, Walnut Chocolate Chip cookie & regular Chocolate Chip they were all amazing & delicious Let me tell you guys everything was SO SO SOFT it melts in your mouth.I've never had a bake good when cooling done it stays soft.It was worth the drive from LA by USC to Long Beach I'm definitely visiting you again & hope to try the rest of the menu & any new or upcoming dessert you may have“
“My husband and I had our wedding at Hangar 21 South - a Jay's Catering venue and the food was phenomenal! Their menu selection is quite wide. They have different menu's to cater for different flavors such as a Latin, American, etc. And they do either plated or buffet style!We did buffet style and did their American BBQ wedding. For the appetizers we did mini corn dogs and gorgonzola and caramelized onion bruschetta. For our entrees we did BBQ chicken, beef brisket and a tri-tip carvery, and for the accompaniments we did mac and cheese, mashed potatoes, cesar salad and corn bread with honey butter. The tri-tip carvery was really nice because someone was hand carving tri-tip. Our wedding was almost 3 weeks ago and people are still talking about how good the food was!The bar was also of course a hit! The bar package we chose has the bar open from cocktail hour to an hour before the event ends and although our guests didn't pay for their drinks it wasn't technically "unlimited" because they could run out of certain things. But nonetheless, they ask you in advance if there are certain drinks you would need to have heavier stocked if you know your guests have a preference. And their signature drinks are delicious too! They offer tastings at part of the package, I suggest going to them!Working with outside vendors - I highly suggest selecting from their list of preferred vendors when looking into wedding coordinators, dance floors and lighting and stuff. These are companies that have worked with their venue before and will know what they're doing for set up :) We did want to use a different lighting company but they said for liability purposes, they couldn't use lighting companies they weren't already contracted with. :( It ended up working out though because we ended up doing very simple lighting and it came out amazing. For wedding coordinators, I highly suggest Heidi Hou with The Fete Collective. She has an incredible team and they go above and beyond to execute your day. My husband and I felt so taken care of. We felt like we didn't even have to think because she handled absolutely everything, and STILL made sure we had drinks and appetizers during cocktail hour while we were taking pictures, AND had food waiting for us at our table. She is amazing at what she does, and you can tell she loves it.Our event coordinator, Casey, was amazing! She was very responsive to all our questions. And after our venue visit, they drafted a contract to show how much the grand total would be with the details we chose according to our headcount so we wouldn't be blindsided by pricing. They give you a complimentary 2 week soft hold while you make your decision and Casey made herself available during this time to answer all questions and make any additional changes for me. She responded very quickly and she kept me on track for all my deadlines. I highly suggest working with her :)“
“Patty's Cakes is a Lakewood GEM! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Patty's Cakes isn't just a name, it's a full-on flavor explosion! This place quickly became my go-to spot for soul food in Lakewood.Let's start with the star of the show: the fried chicken. Crispy, juicy perfection! Every bite was seasoned just right, and the breading had that satisfying crunch. The sides are all amazing too. The collard greens were cooked low and slow, bursting with savory goodness. The red beans and rice were perfectly balanced, with tender beans and flavorful rice. Yams were candied to sweet perfection, and the dressing was like a fluffy, savory hug on a plate. I couldn't resist the mac and cheese, and it was rich and creamy, just the way I like it.But wait, there's more! Patty's also has incredible fried catfish. Golden brown on the outside and flaky on the inside, it was every bit as good as the chicken. And for dessert? Don't even get me started on the banana pudding ice cream! Creamy, dreamy, and with just the right amount of banana flavor.Oh, and did I mention they do cakes? I recently tried a slice of cake from them, and it was not only beautiful but absolutely delicious. Fresh, moist, and perfectly decorated – a crowd-pleaser for sure!Patty's Cakes is a hidden gem in Lakewood. Friendly service, amazing food, and portions that will leave you satisfied. This place gets a big thumbs up from me!“
“We just had our wedding here and it was absolutly incredable. All the staff we worked with was amazing Barbi was so helpful and helped us the whole process and made it so easy. and our day of coordinator Aubrey and she made the day sooo smooth we had 3 people show up that did not RSVP and she just hanndled the situation and made a new table and communicated to them. The food and drinks were out of this world good. I can not recomend enough how amazing this venue and staff is.“
“This is the place to get all your Vietnamese catering goods! From the variety of egg rolls to nem nuong to banh beo, they have it all! This is where my family gets our party trays for our family gathering and parties. Order 24hrs in advance and your food will be made on time and ready to be picked up at your requested date/time. This mom and pop to go shop has been around for years! Their pricing and quality are great! Highly recommend for your next party!!“
“I had the pulled pork nachos and chili, both were top notch. The chili was spicy excellent flavor.April 7, 2024This time I had the spare ribs. Highest grade on all of flavor and product quality and preparation.Parking: Parking shouldn't be a problem but during weekday lunch hours parking can be a challenge.Kid-friendliness: Bench seating for perhaps 25.“
“First time at the store, I ordered the wagyu the smoke wagyu pastrami. What I like about it is that when I came this Wednesday give me $5 dollar discount on the sandwich. When I tried the sandwhich, I was blown away by the taste of it. The sandwich was crispy and the right balance. My order also came with with a side of potato salad I believe it's what they gave me and a coke.“
“Okay Stacey exceeded all expectations with her charcuterie cups for our event She really is so talented and has an eye to make things that are both beautiful and delicious. People were so sad to even dive in because they were so pretty! Not only were the cups hand crafted and unique with items like sealed crackers, honey sticks, etc, she even included darling pearls and baby's breath for decor that just sent it over the top! Definitely check her out for any of your entertaining needs. She can do anything from single serve cups to GIANT grazing boards. She will customize it to your liking if you tell her what you like/don't like and she even does fun BRUNCH boards!! Can't wait for our next event!!!“
“I love the olive pit! I have had my fair share of Mediterranean and greek food over my lifetime and this place is different, in a good way! The flavors are fresh and so delicious...there is literally nothing i have had here that i didnt like. I loved olive pit so much i came here 2x in 3 days!! Their hummus is amazing, their salads are vibrant and huge, and their lamb and chicken are seasoned to perfection. What are you waiting for?! Come here and indulge! Sadly i live out lf state and only get to come here 1-2x year.“
“Came here for the hype and it was pleasant and enjoyable but nothing to really rave aboutThe server was really nice and accommodating when we were deciding on what drinks and add ons to orderWe ordered a couple of the classic milk teas and again, I'd come back here if I was in the neighborhood but wouldn't go too far out of my wayMapo Tots: Maybe get?It's a fun loaded tots idea but the two flavors don't really go hand in handFood/Drinks: 6/10Service: 8/10Atmosphere: 6/10Value: 6/10“
“I am only sad that I didn't take a photo of my food before devouring. I got tacos de papa last night and they were bomb!! Soo good. I wish it would've came with more. My plate 3 tacos and all yummy toppings and the green salsa was my favorite! Tacos were perfectly crispy and stuffed with great flavor. It was pretty cool that I was able to pick up from a locker and unlock it with my phone. Will Try anaheim location before heading into disney today.“
“I cannot begin to express our appreciation to such a wonderful food, professionalism and care this company has for their customers. We had them at our daughter’s wedding on 4/13/24 and they were incredible especially having to move immediately inside due to rain. Such an AMAZING group, we can’t thank you enough for making everything so special, wrench in the day and all❤️“
“Vegetarian options: My husband and I are the second time we have ordered from this Bakery. On Thursday we ordered a vegan, sugar-free cake for our baby who was turning 1 year old. The theme was kittens, butterflies and flowers because that's what my baby likes the most. And the truth was it was the most beautiful and exquisite. I highly recommend it.“
“We recently hired Raquel and her team for a private dinner party. From start to finish her whole team understood our vision. Not only did they provide delicious Authentic " Elevated" Puerto Rican Food but we used their party decorators which completely understood the assignment and everything was flawless and beautiful. There was no moment in which i felt stressed. They handled everything. They even contacted the venue and coordinated directly with them for set up., etc.. we walked into our party and were completely blown away. I am still dreaming about it all!“
“I have now used their catering twice - once personally for my husband's 50th and once professionally for my office party. They are amazing! Each time, everyone I have interacted with on their staff has been extremely kind and professional. I got so many compliments from people on the food. We had the brisket, chicken, veggie kababs, salad, mac & cheese and their BBQ beans. All phenomenal!! I can't wait to use them, again!“
“Wish I lived closer to have Carmen's be my daily coffee stop. I can't stop thinking about the banana foster latte I had. Toasted butter and real banana no artificial flavoring or syrups. My next try will be the eggnog latte if I can make it before the season's over. I also hear my friends talking about the strawberry latte. Can't go wrong“
“This review is long overdue, and I hesitated to write it. Tacos El Panzas is my husband's and my all-time favorite. I selfishly wish we could keep it our little secret. It's truly something special. Forget fancy decor and trendy vibes - this no-frills gem serves up the most incredible Mexican food from their truck. Their carne asada, pollo tacos, and mulitas are simply unmatched. Don't miss out!“
“Very professional and easy to work with! Rebecca was very responsive, answered all of our questions and put our event together in mere weeks! Food was delicious, and Rebecca made quick adjustments to special dietary requests for both vegan, and gluten free guests.The crew the evening of our party were hands on, always present, and attended to everything seamlessly.I would love to add photos from our event, but I was having so much fun I hardly took any!Would absolutely use Colette's again!!!!!“
“**This is for the catering service (me as a guest).Office building used them for their tenant Christmas luncheon. Food was good, service was excellent, atmosphere was work place patio so—ya know.Office offered both savory and sweet crapes but I only had banana/Nutella crapes. They offered lemonade, coffee, water for drink. It was free for us so I don’t know the price but I enjoyed it ✌️“
“This restaurant is the real deal!! We had the asada, chicharron and Chorizo w/ papa's gorditas. ALL OF THEM WERE AMAZING. We wanted to try more put they were so filling we are will have to make a return trip soon. The service is excellent as well, kind & friendly staff. There is enough seating for 30+ people but I can see this place filling up once the word gets out.A must try in Norwalk for fresh delicious Mexican food.“
“I'm not sure I can add anything to the already amazing reviews below, but I'll sure try! I had a group of 30 people coming from out of town that needed dinner every night for a week straight, and finding a caterer that could provide different meals each night for that number of people was a challenge. When I found Melrose Catering online and reached out, Stephen was very quick to respond and provide me with a large amount of options for each night. Through working with him and his team, we were able to curate a vastly unique menu for each night while also catering to a few gluten-free and vegetarian members of my group. Throughout the week, some of the items we had for dinner were: orange ginger salmon, fried chicken & waffles, korean short ribs, chicken empanadas, paella, flat iron steaks, salmon picatta, and tri-tip. NONE of these items disappointed in the slightest! There was not any food item all week that anybody disliked, and nobody had a single bad word to say. To the contrary, everyone in my group (myself included) was incredibly impressed by dinner every single night. I was expecting to not enjoy at least one side or dessert item, but there was truly nothing even mediocre the entire week. Each item, whether it was a main dish, side/appetizer, or dessert, was full of flavor, served very hot, and cooked perfectly! In terms of communication, Stephen and his team made us feel like we were the only group that mattered, although I know they had different orders during our week of catering. Stephen responded to my (very many) texts/emails/calls incredibly quickly, and delivery was perfectly executed every night. Overall, I could not recommend Melrose Catering any more for whichever event you may have!“
“I would recommend this company for any occasion as they are polite, courteous and take the time (even though they are really busy making your pizza experience awesome!) to answer questions and share their expertise. They present very well, clean work stations and fast.“
“I found Bunch of Munchies thru the "too good to go" app! I reserved my "surprise bag" and came to pick up later in the day. To my surprise, I got 2 huge Rice Krispies for $6! Omg what a steal! It's a surprise bag, so they pick what to give you. I brought it back to work and shared with my coworkers. It was a great mid-day snack! Yummy! I recommend checking out the app to see what other local shops are around and/or seeing if Bunch of Munchies is on there to try out their Rice Krispies! I def would love to try and get more surprise bags to see what else I can try next! Honorable Mentions:-plenty of parking“
“We booked AAC for our wedding on 11/11/23 as the exclusive caterer offered by Fete the Venue. We had our tasting with them and they gave us multiple choices to try from and they were full portions! We were so full after and everything was delicious.We were VERY happy with ACC on our wedding day, the food was great and the presentation was beautiful. Even when they cut our cake for us it was so neatly placed. My husband and I did not have to get up at any point for food or beverages. A member of their team got us food right away and brought it to our table and would periodically come back to see if we needed seconds or anything to drink. We really appreciated her! We actually got to eat at our wedding! Haha! We did have peace of mind knowing they would accomplish our requests because they work so closely with the venue. So any special requests seemed to flow with ease. Also with booking with them through the venue, they did not charge a service fee. Side Note: We did ask if we would be able to take any leftovers home after the wedding but they said no for health safety reasons.I took away a star because there were a few things we did not find easy when working with AAC. The cooks and waiters were superb but management was where they dropped a few balls. After we booked them I had a hard time getting a response back from them. I even had to have Sarah, the sales manager from Fete the Venue reach out to them to get us some type of response. Lastly we needed to switch our method of payment for one of our scheduled payments, and we provided them with the updated payment with plenty of time, and received a confirmation of the update. Yet on the day of the payment, the wrong form of payment was still processed. When I reached out to see what happened, I was again, left with no response.When writing this review I had to decide the star rating. I did this based off outweighing 1 of 2 things:#1 The long 2 years I had to deal with not being able to have good communication with this company, and #2 having exactly what we asked for on our wedding day.With that being said, I gave them 4 stars because they were not the worst to work with and they did execute the day with flying colors, and our guests and us loved the food and service.“
“Touch of Paradise catered the Fullerton Senior Club Annual Meeting and Christmas Party. We were so very happy with all aspects in dealing with this company. Food was delicious servers were excellent and our members were happy. We had close to 140 people at the event. I recommend them to all.“
“Having gone to one too many weddings where I was not fed enough and/or not served tasty food, and then having heard my aunties and uncles complain for years about the food after the wedding left me scared for our wedding...I did not want the reputation of throwing THAT kind of party. But Furiwa made our lives easy! They were the caterer of choice for two other weddings for both my older brother and my husband's younger sister's wedding. We knew we wanted to keep the tradition of having them cater our wedding too and we were 1000% happy with the decision. Our guests were equally satisfied, the fried sui mai were a fan favorite with so many of our guests asking about it post-wedding and are now buying to-go from Furiwa on the weekends just to re-live that tasty goodness. From the start, Victoria and Tiffany were both great to work with. We considered both off-site catering (partnering with Victoria) and having our wedding at The Villa (partnering with Tiffany). We decided to go with an off-site option, but either way, both of them were professional, kind, patient, and great at communicating. We really appreciated all the tips and pointers along the way too. We cannot recommend Furiwa enough, you should for sure book with them!“
“Oh my goodness! We used this catering service after my dad's funeral yesterday! They are reasonable and very professional from start to finish! We went with option 6! My 14 year old grandson, a burger connoisseur rated their burgers a 10 out of 10!! Everyone said the food was good! The bacon wrapped hot dogs with the deliciousness on top was excellent!! Now, for the elote corn, amazing! It is a must try!!! You won't be disappointed!!“
“We came to this place for a meeting. we heard about this restaurant from a lot of people. Well, it was a winning. The crew welcomed us with a smile and we had a great feeling. The food was just great. We enjoyed every moment and we will definitely return to this restaurant. We recommend this place to all.“
“What a nice surprise to run into this pop up booth from Primal Alchemy today. Got the smoked brisket breakfast burrito which was awesome! Some of the most tender brisket I have tasted in a while. Had a good chuckle as well when I ordered my breakfast burrito with salsa on the side and the owner or chef was taken away by my request, like how dare I not trust him! Long story short the cook put the salsa inside my burrito anyway which was fine. Salsa on the side or inside it's still a great burrito and definitely will be back for their next pop up! Thank you for the laugh and delicious breakfast burrito“
“I have had the pleasure of working with Kaitlyn Garcia at TGIS Catering on several occasions, and I can confidently attest to her exceptional expertise and dedication to her craft. Her team's attention to detail and creativity have consistently impressed, particularly at an event held at the Natural History Museum.I want to emphasize that my endorsement of Kaitlyn and TGIS Catering is based on objective observation and not merely a courtesy due to our professional relationship. As a security provider, I have worked with numerous event planners and catering companies, and Kaitlyn stands out for her exceptional professionalism, attention to detail, and commitment to excellence.Her ability to execute complex events with ease and ensure client satisfaction is impressive. I wholeheartedly recommend TGIS Catering for any event or occasion, confident that Kaitlyn and her team will continue to deliver exceptional results.“
“I called in a panic because I needed a charcuterie board for a company event for the next day. Terry was able to accommodate my request and made sure I was able to get my order in time. I am out of state trying to coordinate my event and the presentation on this was amazing and very impressive. Her professional and understanding made this happen. Thank you again the event was a success!!“
“We hired Asher's BBQ for a school event and they were amazing! The food was delicious, the prices were affordable, and the service was great. I especially like that they do an online ordering service to eliminate time waiting in line. All the families had nothing but great things to say. Would definitely ask them back again.“
“We recently had the pleasure of having their service at our luncheon. The pasta bar was delicious and the servers were the best They were on time , set up quickly and was fast and friendly on the clean up for us to conduct our meeting. Thanks for your help in our behalf.Rose M. F., Past VP for # 5019.“

“Blueberry Hill has catered a few events for us and they were all wonderful! We have used them for a couple of large banquet dinners and a terrific lunch for my company. The food is always beautifully presented, plentiful and delicious! The staff is extremely professional and accommodating! And their prices are reasonable! I look forward to using their services again!“
“Nice to have a local place serving tasty pizza. It's a great combination of convenience, price, and taste. Obviously, there is better pizza out there, but not in this neighborhood! I haven't tried the pasta, calzone, or garlic knots, but I will on future visits.“
“We catered for my twins' 15th birthday and 19th wedding anniversary. Let me tell you, it was the highlight of the party! My guests were impressed with the great tasting, beautifully decorated catered food! I am so thankful we catered to our special event, we will definitely cater again. I am highly recommending Garcia's catering to your next special event!“
“He catered our family reunion. He was a one man show and made some awesome tacos for our 80 plus guests. All our guests kept complimenting how good the food was. Danny himself was professional and friendly, even cleaned everything up very well. Would highly recommend him.“
“This neighborhood Italian restaurant was a great find. While it is in a strip center, and doesn't look to be anything special, the food and service was great. My husband had lamb that he said was some of the best he's ever had. I had a wonderful soup, followed by a chicken special that was just as great.“
