50 Best Caterers near Newport Beach

“Amazing food, and the presentation is absolutely beautiful. We ordered the arugula beet salads, and they exceeded our expectations. They were perfect for our party, and everyone really enjoyed them. We can't wait to come back and try more dishes from the menu. Highly recommend!“

“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.“

“We hosted a team event with Chef Chinchilla and I could not recommend it more! We had a great time competing for the best tacos, and everything we needed was perfectly prepared. Chef Chinchilla made everyone feel comfortable and confident in the kitchen, regardless of experience. And the chocolate chip cookies were AMAZING. Highly recommend Chef Chinchilla for any team or group event!“

“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.“

“We've used Taylor Made Cuisine a number of times for corporate catering, and the food is spectacular! I highly recommend the BBQ, and their Hero Sandwich is always a hit with our attendees. While their food shines, the service is where TMC really knocks it out of the park. The planning/ordering process is easy (thank you, Carol!!!), delivery/set-up is efficient, and the team as a whole is lovely to work with. Thank you, TMC!“

“Just had my wedding here and had simply amazing time! Barbi, Emily and the entire staff made it truly a seamless experience that allowed us and our guest to enjoy our wedding! They are definitely an elite catering service as they handle every little detail (and some unexpected ones) with top-notch care and attention! Definitely loved this venue as a convenient outdoor space in the Costa Mesa area, not too far from South Coast and Westminster/Fountain Valley which made things really easy for our friends and family to navigate. There's also a beautiful vineyard nearby for photos

Notes:
-Wedding was 230 people outdoors on the grass/garden area
-Did not have a ceremony there, though the gazebo is great for photos
-Allows for outside catering, we used the venue's appetizers which were great (the grilled cheese shooters were a huge hit!)

Overall, if you are looking to do something beyond a standard indoor restaurant, this garden is great as a blank canvas space to have your wedding with truly elite service and execution :D“

“We came from North Carolina to Huntington Beach to celebrate our daughters wedding in November. What a wonderful job they did with the food and bar. Top Notch! A+++. Highly recommend Love at First Bite for your catering needs“

“I LOVE THIS PLACE! Cost is low and taste is high!“

“The Wanted Taco did an amazing job at my daughter’s graduation party. The food was delicious and we had plenty for leftovers.“

“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.“

“Great service, fantastic food, friendly atmosphere! Loved everything about the place. Can't wait to come back.“

“We had an excellent experience with Kannappa Catering. The food quality was outstanding, the flavors were authentic, and every dish was freshly prepared. If you’re looking for South Indian catering for weddings, birthdays, corporate events, or family gatherings in Orange Country & Riverside this is a fantastic choice. Great service and delicious food! Strongly Recommend.“

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

“I tried Nomada at a company outing and WOW! These tacos were delicious! Everything was cooked fresh from their mobile kitchen, and the food was a huge hit with everyone at the event. I constantly saw team members going back for seconds and even thirds! The tacos, paired with their flavorful salsas and guac, were definitely the highlight. I would highly recommend Nomada for anyone looking for delicious Mexican food catering for an event.“

“The staff at Moonwood are always amazing! fantastic coffee, pastries, and now I just had my first breakfast sandwich....yummmmm I love using their catering services for my events at Bra Garden as well! Great job Moonwood!!! 👏👏👏“

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

“I would strongly disagree with any negative reviews here - we catered from Vishnu Catering for our large Indian wedding the entire weekend and it was the best food we and many of our guests have ever had at a wedding! Ram was kind, helpful, professional, and incredibly reliable as a vendor - we never had to worry about anything going wrong with catering and he was easily one of our favorite and best vendors of the whole process. The food and drink was phenomenal across all events. We are still getting comments from guests, Indian and non-Indian, about how amazing the food was. We are so grateful we got to work with Ram and his team and we would cater again for any event big or small in a heartbeat!“

“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!“

“On Saturday, July 25th, 2026 my church was having an event and your food was being delivered for that part of the meal service. I want to commend you. I erred by not getting the woman's name who delivered the food to us, but she was a great help to us worker bees. We were using Chafing trays and the lady who's usually in charge of them called out sick. I and my coworkers know zero about them. Your lady helped me understand what to do and how to do it. Thank you Thank you and Thank you.
Now for the food. The menu consisted of baked beans, chicken, pulled pork, and brisket. With 2 sides. Potato salad and coleslaw. My coworker and I were comparing our opinions and you all deserve a raise. Instead you'll receive this high rating. A 10 out of 10. I don't usually eat brisket and my coworker doesn't usually eat pulled pork. However, these two meats were melt in your mouth tender, most flavorful, and super juicy. They were the Best! Your company will now be the comparison to ALL others. So again I say Thank you Thank you and Thank you. Joyce Galasso. (WCA church. )“

“my office recently discovered GreenLife and personally i love the variety of foods it brings. I have tried almost everything on the menu but my favorites are definitely the burritos! Our delivery guy, his name is RJ, and he has the best attitude everyday he comes to our office, and he makes the encounter that much enjoyable!“

“I had to use 24 Carrots for my wedding at Ole Hanson Beach club and they just constantly went above and beyond. Our tasting a few months before the wedding was so fun and literally everything we tried was delicious. I was also so sad because my fiance was not able to make the tasting but they sent me home with everything so I could take it back to him in AZ. The food was still delicious and he loved getting to be a part of it. On our wedding day and after we got so many compliments about the food saying how good it was. Which is not usually the case for wedding food. We did for our apps: Italian meatballs, pretzels and mini beef wellingtons and for our dinner we did: Caesar salad, bread, lasagna and chicken Alfredo, it also came with zucchini! Basically everything was perfect and so yum! The staff was so kind and really had everything together. 24 Carrots also ran the Ole Hanson Beach Club venue and I had a few issues getting passed around to a few different event managers but Alix and Erandi really made my whole day and went above and beyond to make me feel special and like she had it all under control. I would use them again in a heart beat!“

“We’re employees in the cards department who work at the hospital and stop by this coffee shop almost every day. Just wanted to share how great your barista Stephanie (Stephy) is. She’s consistently engaging and welcoming, and she has a natural way of making both customers and coworkers feel comfortable. She really sets a positive tone here, and you can tell she genuinely cares. The coffee is great, and she’s a big reason this place feels like such a bright spot in the day.“

“The best in Santa Ana . Deliciosas carnitas el sabor es unico“

“Los mejores tacos de Santa Ana Ca..“

“very professional and very delicious food for an amazing price would recommend for any and every event“

“Reshmi and her crew did a catering in our backyard party recently. It was a unique experience to have a live Dosa station for our friends and families. Everyone enjoyed the food and it was fresh and tasty. There was plenty of varieties in Dosa to pick from, which was great. Specifically the S'more Dosa was a hit with the kids as well as adults.“

“Amazing food. Delicious spring rolls. Baked goods.“

“We received this holiday board from one of our clients and honestly… we were in awe when we opened it. The way the Brie was styled like a little wreath with rosemary and those salami “petals” around it was just adorable — it felt so festive and thoughtful, and almost too pretty to touch.

But of course we did, and wow — it tasted even better than it looked. Everything on the board was fresh, balanced, and so well put together. The house-made jams and dips were a total standout. The owner actually delivered it herself and told us about the cottage cheese dill dip, and she wasn’t kidding — it was seriously to die for. We kept going back for more. Definitely will think of them for future in house events and charcuterie is the way to go for catering.

This was such a perfect client appreciation gift. It felt personal, beautiful, and indulgent in the best way. You can really tell Graze Craze puts heart into what they do, not just ingredients on a board. We loved every bite and every detail. 💛🧀“

“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. Their attention to detail and impeccable service made the event seamless and enjoyable. We greatly appreciated their professionalism and dedication. Highly recommend Kiros Catering for any event!“

“I've been frequently this place for at least 3 years. I enjoy seeing the same faces every week and enjoying a good quality sandwich, that is carefully prepared. The food is a consistent quality and the establishment can be trusted to treat their customers well.“

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

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

“I hired Chris and his team for my son's first birthday party and had such a great experience. Chris arrived on time and was super professional, and he and his partner set up quickly and got started right away. The food was amazing, and we received so many compliments from our guests. They were also very generous with the amount of food, which we really appreciated. Everything went so smoothly, and overall it was the best experience we could have hoped for. I will definitely be hiring them again!“

“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.“

“ordered my first meal for here and was amazed at the flavor and quality of the ingredients. I recommend trying one of their Power Bowls 🥣 👌“

“Great tasting kabobs, love that place.“

“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“

“Parking is very difficult here but we were lucky to find some street parking. We had a reservation but the place was not crowded so we were quickly seated. Took forever for the server to come to take the order. We had the vermicelli bowl with chicken (my favorite) and my colleague ordered the red curry with beef. He was disappointed in the dish finding it lacking in flavor and bite. The beef was fairly chewy too. My dish was the best with tender pieces of chicken, all the veggies we expected and a good portion of vermicelli noodles. Prices are high but it is Corona Del Mar and it was a good place to stop by for lunch. Lots of take away orders going out so it is popular with the locals. But parking is rough.“

“Our whole family enjoys eating here, even our two young girls. We really love the smoked turkey and brisket, but all the meats are good. The service is excellent and each person really cares about the people they serve and the food they make. The place is clean, even the bathrooms are clean. We like to enjoy our meal on the small back patio.“

“Dirty birds are light fresh and wholesome tacos we get them from time to time from food winners and the last up to 3 times longer than most the other products that food when he gives us“

“I recently hosted a backyard party to kick off the summer and celebrate the retirement of a work colleague, and Sapphire Catering absolutely exceeded every expectation.

From start to finish, they handled everything seamlessly—setup, a full range of delicious food from hors d’oeuvres to dessert, and even the cleanup. It made the entire event stress-free and allowed me to truly enjoy the celebration with my guests.

The service was outstanding. Maribel and Lupita were incredible—attentive, professional, and on top of every detail. Their care and dedication really showed and elevated the entire experience.
And the food… OMG! Everything was fresh, beautifully presented, and absolutely delicious.

Sapphire Catering is truly the best caterer in Orange County. I highly recommend them for any event—you won’t be disappointed!“

“I can't express enough how awesome Chef Lou and the entire staff was!! The occasion was my wife's surprise birthday party. Chef Lou created a wonderful menu. The whole team arrived promptly and delivered an absolutely awesome experience.
The food was both delicious and had a beautiful presentation. All of the staff was super friendly and accommodating. Everyone at the party was so pleased with this team. Then at the end, they quietly cleaned up and left the house as if they were never there. I feel very fortunate to have found Saltwater Catering for this party.

I am already trying to figure out the next time we would be able to use them again!“

“Excellent food and service. Chinese seafood here is excellent“

“Their food is amazing and the portions are huge!!! DELICIOUS😋👍🏻♥️“

“Beautiful setting around the fountain in the civic center.“
