50 Best Caterers near Encino

“The food is so good! And they have curbside pickup on Fridays!“

“Good food - great service“

“Contemporary Catering is incredible. Period. Hire them. It will be the best decision you make. It certainly was ours. My (now) wife and I spent over a year planning our wedding weekend and Rob, Rachel, and, of course, Chef Nate, were there for us every step of the way. First, the food: It is 5-stars, no joke. I am a “foodie” and a bit of a self-admitted food snob. Honestly, I would drive an hour daily to Encino to eat in their test kitchen 7 days a week if they would let me. Even now, three weeks after our wedding, our guests continue to rave to me about the food (pro tip: you NEED to serve the mini chicken and waffles appetizer). Trust me when I tell you that their execution was flawless and the quality was exquisite. Second, the people: You will not find a more invested, passionate, and sincere team of individuals who love what they do and are so good at it. They are unbelievably responsive, overly generous with their time, extremely attentive to detail and endlessly patient. Without a doubt, we can say that thanks to Contemporary our wedding day was perfect and we are so grateful to everyone on the team. Rob and his team provided so much more value than I ever thought possible. We will ALWAYS refer Contemporary to our friends, families, and loved ones in need of wedding catering and, personally, we can’t wait to work with them again to cater other events in our future! Thank you, yet again, Rob, Rachel, and Chef Nate!“

“Great food and the best waitress in town (Jessica). Everything is always fresh and tasty. Check it out.“

“We used Bite Catering to host an in-home celebration of life for my dad for 50 people. Amanda was super responsive and communicative throughout the planning which made things more manageable during a difficult time. Bite was also able to coordinate directly with the rental company which saved us a ton of time and energy coordating with various vendors. The rental company they partnered with was great and super professional. Barrett and his team were fantastic, super attentive and kind and professional. The guests loved the food and everyone said how great everything looked and how smoothly it went.“

“My friend hired Hao for his 24th birthday and he was amazing. Made us laugh the entireee time and even let the bday boy do tricks. The food was also delicious and verryyy full portions (there’s no way you won’t be full at the end). His energy was great and if I ever have my own hibachi I will definitely hire him!“

“Been coming here for over twenty years! Best Sandwiches ever!!“

“We would highly recommend Mani Catering for any event. They went above and beyond to make our daughter’s wedding day perfect, and received countless compliments on the food and service.“

“They have the best food ever I could eat this every day the nicest staff clean never had a bad meal here“

“Great food, great service, wonderful atmosphere!!!“

“OK, it’s cookies, not pastries… but oh, my, oh, my!! Delicious, imaginative cookies. We went in for 2, came out with a dozen (+ 1 for a baker’s dozen‼️).“

“Avocado ice cream is ducking amazing! And all the ice cream is amazing!“

“sabrosisimas todas las tortas“

“We secured Distinctive Catering services to provide hors d’oeuvres and a full buffet dinner for our daughter’s engagement party a week ago. The party was outdoors at a ranch, so serving was outdoors and at night! I’m delighted to say Troy and Ray did a fabulous job! The food was beautiful, abundant,
and delicious!“

“I recently had an event and Social Paella catered it. They were very professional, timely, easy to work with. They arrived at my event with a team of people, the food presentation was beautiful and they kept to the schedule perfectly and as planned. Days later, my guests are still talking about how delicious the food was. The tapas appetizers were all amazing, and the paella was probably one of the best I have ever had (even the ones we have eaten in Spain). I would hire them for every event if I could. I highly, highly recommend them.“

“Balabuste catered my wedding almost 8 years ago and people still talk about how amazing the food was!!“

“This compact space is everything.
Run by passionate thoughtful sincere hoomans.
A well curated shop where one can pick up charcuterie board fixings, wine, sandwiches and a small assortment of goods before you head out to a gathering with you & yours.
I picked up the French Girl from the secret lunch menu and a box of Lady Crackers.
The sando was easily the top 2 french ham & cheese style baguettes that I have had outside of Paris. The spread gives it a nice sweet hint that is unconventional but very welcomed.
There is also an Inciardi Print vending machine. If you acquire the Lady Crackers print then you get a free box of Lady Crackers.“

“Gumri restaurant has best food, you should try people!“

“The flavor of the tacos is good, compared to other taquerias in this area, except that they are tacos with a single tortilla, and in general I like that they serve two tortillas. In general, customer service is not very friendly. They are only involved in their work and don't take the time to say hello or say thank you for the purchase.“

“lo mejor asado criollo de la argentina esta en manos de martin fierro asados“

“An amazing venue with a variety of delicious food options. Gracious and accommodating staff.“

“Great sandwiches and a fantastic pastry chef.“

“it was exactly what we were looking for and definitely will be back! Delicious fresh thoughtful food, something for everyone. As a vegetarian I was delighted at the options. I had the roasted cauliflower and yam salad and it was scrumptious. Not to mention they have outdoor seating in the shade which is lovely and they welcomed my doggies with a bowl of water and chunks of chicken! thanks!“

“I booked Landmark for my wedding, but sadly had to cancel a month before. What truly impressed me was how much they care—this isn’t just a business to them. They refunded almost all my money, which showed real integrity.

Michelle Hayes and the team were kind, understanding, and clearly passionate about creating magical events. If you want a venue that cares about you and your special day, Landmark is the place.“

“I’m so grateful that these guys were the caterers for a commercial shoot a couple of days ago. Their Life Rice breakfast was so delicious and nutritious, not always the case with healthy, gluten free options. The seared ahi for lunch was perfect! Bonus - all three of the men were very nice and accommodating. Thank you!“

“I recommend the Bbq chicken, Rack of Ribs and Brisket overall everything I ordered was delicious.“

“Ще дойда някой ден“

“Highly recommend Alfredo Catering! The food is always delicious, fresh, beautiful presentation with great service, professional and courteous staff.“

“Delicious food and great service at a reasonable price! I have used Nana’s Kitchen so many times! And friends who have attended our parties, use them, for their parties, too.“

“Great waters and friendly staff :)“

“We have been working with Haute Chefs LA for at least 9 years!
Haute Chefs are always the first on my list when I have to cater a dinner or event.

Their prices are incredibly reasonable for everything you get, but lets be honest, we're here to talk about their food. Their food is always delicious and portions VERY generous. Their presentation is also something you can't forget about, we eat with our eyes first.

They have also become very conscientious of people's dietary needs over the years that I never have trouble finding gluten-free or vegan options on their menu for those with dietary restrictions.

I was going to list some of my personal favorites, but then the list got very long. However, you can't go wrong with their roasted cauliflower, steak & shrimp. Their charcuterie & cheese board is also very beautiful and delicious with the freshest in-season fruits. Their menu has something for everyone, and they are willing to take any other adjustment should you need them for one reason or another.

Definitely worth having them cater your next event/dinner, etc.“

“A clear passion for high quality ingredients and client experience - highly recommend!“

“I am from Philadelphia,Pa. I come from an area with very good Italian food and I worked for an Italian Market in Warminster. The Bruschetta was meticulous and delicious, my wife had the Picatta and I had a Calzone. Pasta was perfectly to the tooth. The chicken tender and flavorful. My Calzone (I make my own and have eaten them all over) was exceptional and the sauce was fresh and lovely spotlight on the tomato. On my list for returning and highly recommended if you like Nonna-style Italian food!!!!“

“A friend and I had lunch fresco style- patio area great! Superb service and food! The Lamb Chops were amazing! The Falafels were great— friend said they were super crunchy!“

“Great food. Reminds me of my mom’s cooking.. I love to come to MOFONGOS on my birthday to get Pasteles, Arroz con Gandules and Habichuelas Rojas. Just like my mom would serve me on my birthday.“

“My wedding was about two months ago at Hummingbird Nest Ranch, and David and his team were beyond incredible! From our very first meeting, he was welcoming and attentive. The food tasting was such a lovely experience, and he thoughtfully applied every single note we shared.

The ingredients were fresh, the service was top-notch, and his staff was both professional and friendly. Beyond catering, David truly cared for the entire flow of the venue—his experience in the wedding industry really shined, especially since many of my other vendors were beginners.

During the reception, he was constantly walking around, checking in, and making sure every table was taken care of. That level of attention gave me so much peace of mind on such an important day.

I would 100% recommend David to anyone planning a wedding or event, and I would absolutely love the opportunity for him to cater another event of ours in the future!“

“Second time coming to ZEF'S and will be planning on coming back for more brisket, burnt ends, tri-tip, pulled pork, and ribs soon. We got the platter and it easily had enough food to serve 4 for lunch with the sides and everything. Logan and the guys were friendly and made picking up the order an easy and worthwhile trip.“

“The food is amazing and portions overly generous. Always professional.“

“Great waters and friendly staff :)“

“We had the corn tortilla tacos last night, fantastic!“

“wonderful food would definitely use again“

“They are the best! The food was absolutely delicious They did everything they promised. They cleaned up beautifully. They were such a pleasure to work with and they made my event special. I needed a caterer for an extended family event in a rented home. I needed a vast assortment of food because everybody in my family likes something different😂. And they did everything I asked and more. They were very very professional and I highly recommend them. Top notch.“

“Great people and company! If there’s anything of concern, management is quick to resolve! The serving crew makes sure you get a good amount of portions and they’re a friendly crew as well! Shoutout to Caesar for always looking out and being so attentive, making sure you’re satisfied.“

“Steve prepares everything as if serving “guests”🌹. Absolutely reliable and remarkable food preparation. Plus, he has the best personality🌹“

“Delicious food, I enjoyed myself there and the spaghetti was great just like expected 🧡“

“Great food good people clean and reasonably priced“

“Ribs were well seasoned and the mild and spicy sauces were loaded with delicious heat. The grilled veggies were my personal favorite and the beans were off the hook. A great meal towards the 4th of July.“

“Found this restaurant in March and just returned for Mother’s Day dinner xoxoxo Great quality food and drinks, very pleasant staff!!! Authentic Japanese food items plus a touch of personality of its own makes their menu awesome and unique. We will come back for many many more.“

“The food was amazing and authentic. The service was beyond exceptional. Would definitely recommend!!!“
