50 Best Caterers near Newport Beach

“Absolutely wonderful experience with Iron Catering Crew! Brooke was excellent to communicate with in the planning process & the onsite team was equally wonderful. The food was presented beautifully & tasted amazing. They went above & beyond to help make our events successful! Will definitely be using them again.“

“We absolutely love chef Norah! She has helped our kids fall in love with healthy, nourishing food. I feel like so much weight has been taken off my shoulders with having her come each week to prep healthy and delicious meals for our family.“

“I have never done dinner like this before so I was very excited to go, didn’t realize it was Valentines weekend so I was worried it was couples only. But I didn’t feel awkward Chef Stephanie and her husband Al made me feel comfortable. But anyway the service was amazing the food DELICIOUS. I loved that most of what was served came from her garden so you know the food was made with natural ingredients and lots of love. If you want me to tell you what dish I liked more I can’t because I loved it all. Will definitely do it again and tell my friends about it. Love Karla“

“Love this iconic spot! A must when visiting Balboa Island!“

“I really loved the customer service here. The ladies and gentlemen all were very nice to me and I felt happy.“

“I decided to use Taylor Made when planning a small event from the east coast. In part my decision was based on the positive reviews I read and the varied options for food items, but primarily because the customer service was excellent. Right from my first inquiry through to ordering and delivery, I experienced prompt email communication with many team members.
Day of event food was delivered right on time and well packaged in containers which kept hot foods warm and everything well secured during transport. Perhaps the only negative for me was that the spinach dip which I had ordered for 12 people could have fed an army! Better advise on that portion would have been appreciated as it was costly and although very good, I had to dispose of 80% of it. Highly recommend for catering.“

“Service was amazing!!!! Shout out to Alexis the best sever in the WORLD!! Checked up on the table a couple of time to get us what ever we needed. 10/10 service!!!!! AND FREE REFILL!!!!! Our chef Nick was OUT OF THIS WORLD with all his jokes and games, he even GAVE US EXTRA GARLIC BUTTER. In conclusion this was a 10/10 experience 10/10 service and I haven’t talked about the food yet!!!!!! A must if you are in the area.“

“Kannappa takes top notch precautions to ensure taste ,quality and customer needs. Me and my husband ordered a Vegetarian catering for my kid Birthday party with him. We requested customisation to items and Kannappa made every dish delicious. Definitely recommend him for any event, he will make it memorable with his flavorful tasty dishes.“

“We worked with 24 Carrots for our wedding and their food was truly incredible. Every single dish was full of flavor, beautifully presented, and so fresh. Our guests are still talking about how good everything was. The service was just as amazing as the food. Their team was warm, attentive, and made sure we were taken care of the entire night. They checked in with us often, made sure we always had a plate and a drink, and were so kind throughout the whole evening.

From the appetizers to the main course to the dessert, everything was five star. They made our wedding feel luxurious, seamless, and memorable. If you want amazing food and service that makes you feel cared for, 24 Carrots is truly the best. Highly recommend.“

“The food here is such high quality and is such a unique experience.“

“Country Garden Caterers were a great addition to our wedding day! The planning process for our event was smooth thanks to Diana Perkins! She was a rockstar in helping us plan our menu, was very flexible and understanding, and always answered our questions through phone or email with a quick turn around. We ordered the BBQ brisket, Chicken Marsala, and Poached Salmon as our main entrees and they were all amazing! I would highly recommend all three options. Our guests still comment how wonderful the food was.“

“The best lunch & awesome staff…shout out to Brody!“

“We’re frequent patrons of Postino Wine Cafe on South Broadway, San Antonio, TX. Love the ambiance, food, wine & service. Last night we experienced them at their finest! Ray & Mark went above and beyond in making our daughter-in-laws 50th birthday celebration special. The 50th balloons, cake accessories, & gift card were unexpected & appreciated. This is a place to go for a special celebration! Chef Joseph prepared a variety of delicious boards & more. They truly give top notch attention to detail & service. Highly recommend!“

“I have been both food and batter from FreshMe since years and there is no better option than them. Their batter is amazing and the Idlis are so soft and fluffy that I have never had luck getting the same quality from any other batter. It checks all the three boxes - fresh, tasty and healthy“

“We had Kiros Catering for our Women in Luxury Design Panel and Reception, and they were absolutely fantastic! The food was fabulous and received rave reviews from all our guests. The team took exceptional care of us, always one step ahead of our needs. They introduced themselves before the event, ensuring we knew all the ways they could assist us.

“Hired Chris for our wedding and the service was great. Cody came out on time and served bacon wrapped hotdogs and tacos. Lots of condiments/toppings provided. Everything tasted great and was nice to have after all the drinking during our wedding. Would highly recommend them for your event. Prices were very reasonable too.“

“Ordered a grazing box for Christmas and it was perfect!! Everyone loved it. It looked beautiful and tasted good. It came with 4 different kinds of fresh cheeses, plenty of crackers and a delicious hummus, veggies and fresh fruits.Picking it up was interesting they work out of a community huge kitchen so it's a bunch of shops, you call them when you arrive and they bring it to your car. Service was quick, ordering online was easy, everything was yummy and beautifully arranged and I'll definitely order again“

“Excellent service and presentation from the servers to the owners acting as MC. Very organized. I'm impressed. I would recommend to do your event here.“

“I've been consistently impressed with the quality of their offerings, including their salads, rolls, sandwiches, pastas, and burritos, but they offer much more. Each item I've tried has been exceptional.
For businesses seeking a truly outstanding daily breakfast and lunch solution, I highly recommend reaching out to them. They offer convenient on-site presentations to introduce their delicious cuisine to your employees, and the employees have the opportunity to purchase.“

“In this place, food is prepared for very good airlines, by the way, well, no. Because it is my workplace but very good attention in English and Spanish. These photos are some of the many platiyos that are prepared for the airlines in this place“

“Went on a whim. My son (5 yo) and I were craving good food, not junk. DID NOT DISAPPOINT. Phenomenal giant beef rib. Big portions. We each ate one and could barley walk out we were so full.
Lou and the crew were SO polite and incredibly friendly. Felt like family.
Definitely made lifelong customers. My 5 yo was already telling me when we have to go back.“

“Awesome food really good scampi and salads“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Saltwater Catering is simply the best!
I’ve worked with Lou, Nancy, and the Saltwater Catering team for years on a wide range of events — from an elegant dinner party for 12 to a welcome party for 100+ guests, and everything in between (baby showers, engagement parties, celebrations of life and more). Whether the occasion calls for fine dining or casual BBQ, they can truly do it all — and do it beautifully.

The food is always amazing, the pricing is reasonable, and the team is a joy to work with. They listen carefully, adapt to your needs, and bring your ideas to life. You come to them with a clear vision or just a loose theme and they will work with you to make it special. I’ve hosted events both at home and at outside venues, and Saltwater has even helped me find a venue when my first choice wasn’t available.

Their professionalism and dedication are unmatched. At one party, when our ovens suddenly stopped working, the chef and his assistant literally ran back and forth to a neighbor’s house to make sure our guests never noticed a thing — talk about above and beyond!

I’ve trusted them for long-planned events like wedding parties and for last-minute gatherings like a celebration of life, and they’ve handled every situation flawlessly. Lou and Nancy are true pros who care deeply about their clients and the quality of their work.

I can’t say enough good things about Saltwater Catering — they make every event feel special. You won’t be disappointed!“

“Tim and his team executed wedding day and it was an absolute dream!! Tim has been very communicative from the start ensuring everything on the contract was going to be fulfilled on wedding day.
The food was delicious and mouthwatering, the food came out hot and fresh - guests could not stop raving about the food. Even my vendors said the vendor meals were delicious! As a bride, of course it was difficult to eat all courses - it makes me wish I was a guest to my own wedding so I could eat everything LOL
During the food tasting I told him we wanted our walnut prawns with more sauce and he put lots of that delicious mayo sauce. The lobster garlic noodles was my favorite dish!
Tim also provided rentals for us - stage, dance floor, chairs. The stage, dance floor, and chairs made the entire ballroom look so dreamy, romantic, and whimsical. I even changed my mind last minute for the chair colors and he was super accommodating
Tim wholeheartedly deserves 5 stars! The caterer is the most important vendor for a wedding and Tim ensured he delivered nothing but the best for my guests. If you're looking for a banquet style meal for your wedding - 1 10000/10 recommend Tim. Thank you Top Catering for making my wedding an unforgettable night.“

“We were greeted and seated right away. Each of us got a different dish and no one was disappointed. We loved the duck appetizer and I flipped for the lemongrass chicken with jalapenos. So delicious! Can't wait to get back to this CDM gem.“

“Clean and spacious. Great menu selection but wish they had a breakfast sandwich. Staff was very friendly. I got the Reuben which was very good although personal preference would more dressing and kraft. Will go back to try some of the other choices.“

“Unos tacos deliciosos y el que atiende muy buen servicio“

“Amazing tacos I loved there al pastor and there carnitas it was great friendly service great toppings and overall I will recommend they’re so sweet and are very respectful arrived on time n even stayed a little past my time because my guest arrived late thank you guys so much“

“The best tacos I had so far, hands down“

“My first time here and the owner was welcoming and friendly. I ordered a pan fried seafood egg noodles party tray and it was amazingly delicious. The flavor was on point and egg noodles had a nice al dente chewy texture with wok hei taste. I also ordered pork and shrimp egg rolls and they were crispy and flavorful as well.

Wheelchair accessibility: Large front door with lots of space inside.“

“The food is AMAZING ! The ribs, the Mac n cheese, the green beans, the cornbread, everything we had was over the top delicious and the service was great !! Our new favorite place ❤️“

“We placed a last minute 8-person lunch order for delivery. The Santa Ana team delivered our order earlier than expected, which turned out great! My team loved the powerbowls, hot lunches, and the cookies. We will definitely order from here again, but make sure to submit our order a day ahead. Thank you Mark for your help!“

“Food was great... Needs to be eating within a good time frame for best taste. It's easy and convenient so you don't have to worry about making lunch or dinner. You get to choose from a variety of plates to satisfy your taste buds and your waste line. Its delivered fresh and well packaged. Worth a try!!!“

“Great food awesome people who care! Some of the best service home cooking I’ve ever experienced! You’ll never be disappointed, it’s like eating at moms house and feeling like home! Love Kinnon catering“

“I had a great experience at Board and Brew in Santa Ana! I tried the Turkey Deluxe Rub sandwich, and it was absolutely delicious. The turkey was perfectly seasoned, and the combination of fresh ingredients and the sun flower seeds really made it stand out. It was one of the best turkey sandwiches I've had in a while.
I also couldn’t resist trying their chocolate chip cookie, and it did not disappoint. It was soft, chewy, and had just the right amount of sweetness — a perfect end to the meal.
I would definitely come here if I’m in the mood for a sub again.“
