“I recently attended a pride party in palm springs, and this mobile bartending service made the event unforgettable. The bartenders were amazing—friendly, professional, and highly skilled. Their craft cocktails were phenomenal, comparable to those from a top-tier mixology bar. Each drink was meticulously crafted with exceptional flavors and stunning presentation. I was thoroughly impressed and will definitely be hiring them for all my future parties. Highly recommend their outstanding service!“

“LOVED using Bryan and his team for both my 11/5 wedding welcome party and 11/6 wedding at Legacy Villas! I highly suggest anyone in the desert cities looking for event catering to use Bryan.First, he is a great business man. He helped us navigate multiple wedding dates (COVID impact), great communication, clear and simple contracts to understand, and is a man of his word. His standard of quality is very high when it comes to delivering which I greatly appreciate. He also managed the event rentals / set up which was a huge help. Attention to detail is great and not a single thing was forgotten or overlooked.Second, the food is AMAZING. I can't say that enough. The first night we had a Mexican buffet and the guests could not stop raving about the churros. The second night for our wedding we did prime tri tip with burgundy reduction, Napa stuffed chicken, Coachella greens salad, mashed potatoes, frilled fall vegetables, and dessert display. We had numerous guests say this was the best wedding food they'd ever had and people who don't normally eat dessert went WILD at the dessert bar. I was blown away when I took my first bites at how great everything was. I was sad when it was over! Was a spectacular meal and the ingredients (meats, vegetables, etc) are very high quality.Third, the staff is exceptional. We had the same staff for both our welcome party and the wedding night which was really fun as our guests got to know them. They are 5 star and went above and beyond to tend to our every need. I've been to fine dining restaurants and his team was on par with that when it came to taking care of the bride/groom in particular, as well as our guests. Great bartending, smooth service, and strong attention to detail.Fourth, his presentation of food is beautiful. They use towers, tropical greens/flowers, artful fruit arrangements, bread sculptures, lovely serving buffets, etc to really elevate the experience. This is what originally caught my eye and made me contact Bryan - I don't think there is a single caterer in the area with presentation close to this. The guests loved this and we received many comments on the display after our wedding. Very high end and gorgeous addition to your event.You can hire Bryan and trust his team with your event 100% - it will be perfect.“

“we absolutely love love love smokey lips bbq. I get the family tray and make so many meals out of it since every single item is so friggin tasty. The desserts and cornbread are heavenly. I will admit i am so picky about what/where i eat and this bbq is my absolute favorite in the entire coachella valley and would highly recommend them. Been going back for months and will be a loyal client“

“I've worked with many caterers over the years involving work, but never had the need for one personally. Our daughter was recently married in Palm Springs, CA, and I needed a caterer. Planning a wedding halfway across the U.S. was stressful enough, and I needed help. I reached out through Thumbtack, and Chef Matty was my only response. He responded in a very timely manner and, after a short consultation of our needs, he presented us with an abundant variety from which to choose. He didn't take my deposit and disappear for the next ten months leading up to the wedding, leaving me to wonder what was ahead, but instead stayed in constant contact with me and made me feel at ease. Because of distance, we were not afforded the luxury of scheduling a taste test ahead of the big event, but we were in no way disappointed. He reached out to me upon our arrival in Palm Springs and confirmed our time for delivery. We even Face Timed so he could have a “tour of the kitchen” of the VRBO we rented. I was helping the bride when he arrived, but he showed up in a timely manner and took control. He put my mind at ease so I could focus on my daughter. I had absolutely no worries! The food was magnificent and beautifully displayed, and guests are still talking about the menu. He cleaned up after and properly stored the leftovers, which were later brought out in the early hours when guests started getting the munchies. Chef Matty made our event spectacular! I have no more weddings to plan in my future, but please give him a call if you do, or even if you just live in the area and need someone to relieve you from the task of cooking for a crowd! He is sure to please!“

“The food was excellent! I rarely can find squash blossoms and when I saw them on the menu I knew I had to order. These are often seasonal and very hard to find. They were incredible. Piping hot, crispy on the outside and creamy in the middle. They are served with Marinara. I prefer honey drizzle or agave so I added my own. My mouth was singing their praises. I’m looking forward to trying so many tasty bites I saw on the menu. Two thumbs up for me.“

“This place is super cool. The decor and trolley car you can dine in are awesome. The food is excellent and the service is friendly and attentive. We like the lunch and dinner menu and the dinner entrees come with appetizer & dessert. Can't wait to go back!“

“Great service! The young man who served us left us in a better mood than we came in with! He was friendly and helpful. While we ate our delicious ice cream, he moved around the shop ensuring everything was clean and organized. Great work ethic! It was a pleasure going there.“
