Awarded Best of Zola
How can I even begin to describe the greatness that is Chef Shieya and the Kookery and how wonderful she made our wedding?! It started off with planning mode. With an American and a Brazilian getting married, we wanted to have a dish from each culture to make it special for our guests. With a sea bass dish and the steak picanha, everyone could choose. The sous vide steak was so tender, cooked to perfection, the color on it so beautiful, it was the winner. We had a few vegans at the party, and she took care of them ahead of time and knew exactly where they were sitting and who they were. And as always, Chef wanted to kick it up a notch, so she got some black truffles to really make the dishes pop. The full course meal from the watermelon salad to squid ink pasta to the main courses to the wedding cake she made herself was decadent, super tasty, and plated like a million dollars. Aside from the food being perfect, Chef Shieya and the Kookery team delivered a professional experience like no other. From setup to breakdown, they had it handled to where we didn't have to worry at all. The team arrived early in the morning. We went up to go get ready and change for the wedding party, and by the time we came back down they were already completely set up and serving guests. There are so many attention to detail things we didn't even think of, nor did we have to because they already knew what we needed, even though we didn't. So many touches that just made everything run so smoothly. We didn't have to do a thing, and all the guests were taken care of. People still talk about how good our wedding reception food was, saying it was the best they've ever had, better than the regular boring standard food at other weddings. Our special day was made so much more magical because of Shieya and her team. She does everything only to perfection, and even goes a step further to make it personal and unforgettable. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts!

I can't recommend Denise and her team more. Denise catered my wedding in September and our guests couldn't stop talking about the food. The short ribs and salmon were not only delicious but cooked perfectly even when made for 150 people! Denise was also so hands on during the planning process and helped us ensure we had all the rentals we needed and provided feedback and advice which was so helpful when you are a bride who has never done this before. The staff that Denise brought the day of was also spectacular, they were kind, quick and always willing to help a guest. Her business partner Will who ran the bar was also amazing, he helped us ensure we had everything we needed and made sure lines moved during the night. If you need a caterer in the area who can provide amazing food and is just awesome to work with, definitely hire Denise!

Magilla's Barbecue 

5.0

  • Starts at $900
  • Serves East Los Angeles, CA

Magilla's Barbecue is a catering team based in Southern California. We specialize in Central Texas craft barbecue, offering a variety of meats including brisket, pulled pork, pork belly, tri-tip, turkey, chicken, ribs (pork & beef), and hand-crafted sausages. In addition to traditional sides, we also offer Tex-Mex inspired options. Our goal is to create a memorable menu that will last a lifetime with your guests. Barbecue is our passion, and we would love to share it with you!

I recently had the pleasure of ordering catering for our group of varsity football players, coaches and volunteers from Magillas Ribs, and I can’t say enough good things about the experience. From the moment the food arrived, I could tell it was going to be something special. The BBQ was absolutely delicious—perfectly cooked with that authentic, smoky flavor that’s hard to find. Each bite was packed with rich, tender meat that just melted in your mouth. The portions were generous, so we were able to enjoy leftovers, which is always a bonus! We were thrilled to have something we were so proud of to serve to our hardworking and hungry players and coaches here in La Habra. My husband is super picky about his BBQ, having tried so many authentic bbq places in Texas, and he was thoroughly impressed with the quality and flavor. What really stood out, though, was the service. The team at Magilla's went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. They were prompt, professional, and truly cared about delivering a top-notch experience. It was clear that they take great pride in their craft, and it showed in both the food and the presentation. If you’re looking for flavorful, high-quality BBQ with excellent service, look no further than Magilla's. I’ll definitely be ordering again soon!
