We were thoroughly impressed with Balabusta Catering's exceptional variety of options, beautifully presented dishes, and outstanding taste, which exceeded our expectations at each course of our event. Their flexibility and communication throughout the planning process and during the event itself was top-notch, making our Bar Mitzvah luncheon a memorable and stress-free celebration.

I absolutely love working with Balabusta Catering! As an Events Manager at a private school in Los Angeles, I often need to order kosher food for large groups, and it’s crucial that everything looks as good as it tastes. Balabusta always exceeds my expectations. Their food is consistently outstanding, beautifully presented, and garners rave reviews from my guests.

The team at Balabusta is a joy to work with—professional, accommodating, and always attentive to detail. Communication with them is seamless, which makes the planning process stress-free. During events, I have complete confidence in their catering staff to create a warm, welcoming atmosphere for everyone attending.

An added bonus is that Balabusta offers both food and bar services, which makes planning on my end even easier.

Balabusta exceeded our expectations. We created a fantastic event for our son's Bar-Mitzvah and people are still talking about the food and the day in general. I would not hesitate to use Balabusta again for any event, their work is truly sublime!

Balabusta Catering was really what made our wedding the wonderful event that it was! There was such a huge variety of food and it was all absolutely delicious. My guests are still talking about how good the food was to this day! On top of the quality, Balabusta was so easy and friendly to work with. I have been recommending them to all my friends and will continue to do so!

I feel so lucky to have found Balabusta! Paula and Nancy were total pros and made sure that the food was amazingly delicious while everything ran smoothly and looked exquisitely beautiful! I knew I was in good hands on day one which allowed me to relax and utterly enjoy our event. Paula added her design expertise that included an exquisite array of elegant balloons, a middle eastern themed food display (I can still taste the mouth watering pita and hummus!), and a gorgeous presentation of the best desserts in town! What a tremendous celebration it was! Thank you Balabusta!

Balabusta Catering's impressive variety of dishes was beautifully presented, bursting with flavor and showcasing their exceptional culinary skills, while their flexibility in accommodating special requests was matched only by their excellent communication throughout the entire process, making them a standout choice for any occasion, including our recent celebratory Kosher event. Every aspect of their service, from the delicious first bite to the final farewell, was a testament to their professionalism and dedication to making each event a memorable success.

My wife's 65th birthday party (her only birthday party ever) was a huge success. She was overwhelmed at the event as she was also recovering from a broken femur and has had Type 1 diabetes for 63+ years. We had passing hors d'oeuvres trays and a beautifully decorated round multi-tray display in the foyer. Then we had a large group of buffet style entrees in the party room with a carving station, salads and vegetables. It was a small party of 50. Balabusta table settings and servers did a fantastic job, as good as some double the price kosher caterers we used decades ago. Balabusta is a staple of many local synagogues. You do get what you pay for. The food was some of the best kosher food available. All parve including a high end restaurant quality ravioli and totally consumed hand carved marinated brisket and Viennese pastry tables.

This event looked and felt like a high end wedding. It made a tremendous impression on our guests (friends and family). Balabusta also aided in last minute linens & glassware which were to be the responsibility of another party. Nancy came through at the last minute. The party was a total success!!!

Ask Nancy for my food and display choices. You and your guests will be surprised at the elegance Balabusta can provide.

Balabusta made our party one to remember! They helped us plan and decide on the menu and details every step of the way and then we got to sit back and enjoy. Our guests raved about the food and loved the displays. The appetizers were a huge hit as were the desserts. Paula and her team took care of the details and we didn't have to worry about a thing. thank you!!

Highly recommend! Paula and her team thought of every detail so I could just sit back and enjoy our party. Guests raved about the food, and it was so nice that they put together a special plate for the guest of honor to make sure he ate too! Great menu and fresh fruits and vegetables.
