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!

We had a blast working with Mel! She communicated perfectly and responded to our millions of questions within a few minutes. We expressed our concerns with our group having multiple food allergies and Mel was able to accommodate them all. We had espresso balsamic beef tenderloin, miso caramel scallops, garlic green beans, sesame noodles to die for - absolutely wow, vegan bbq seitan brisket, sautéed veggies, vegan and traditional charcuterie boards, strawberry goat cheese crostini, custom breads and cranberry brie in phyllo cups.

YOOSHI SUSHI CATERING & EVENT PRODUCTION 

5.0

  • Starts at $2,500
  • Serves Lawndale, CA

I had my first shot at managing a sushi restaurant when I took over an empty section of the family restaurant and introduced sushi to my customers. It was a challenge that I will never regret accepting. It was fun, a lot of fun! I had the opportunity to work with some really talented and creative chefs. I quickly learned that it’s not just about having fresh fish anymore. Sushi dining has transformed into a culture. A culture built by imagination and creativity. With the help of GD and the support of my family, I took all that experience and fused it with my imagination and created Yooshi Sushi Catering and Event Production.

Fire and wood was one of the most memorable things about my whole wedding. Everyone loved the food! My roots are in the east coast, so when I read about Chef Thomas and saw his food photos, I was drooling with anticipation. I loved what he had to offer on his catering menu but I challenged him to make a few fun twists for me. My close family and friend from NYC/NJ gave it all a chef’s kiss approval. I went home with leftovers and my hubby and I relived the moments for a week! 10/10

The Falafel Factory

  • Starts at $3,600
  • Serves Lawndale, CA

As a husband and wife duo, and with a shared background in our Egyptian culture, we wanted to create a food experience that highlights the best of this region's flavors, the Middle East, specifically Egypt using our families recipes. Everything on our menu is made in house, in small batches. You have the flexibility of customizing your own menu -- making sure your guests will rave about the food!

Exceptional Mediterranean Wedding Catering Experience! We hired The Falafel Factory for our wedding, and we couldn’t have been more thrilled with the results! From the very first consultation, they made us feel confident that they understood our vision and dietary preferences. We love that they offer buffet style service but still bring their food truck so the food is constantly being replenished. Mediterranean-inspired menu was a huge hit with our guests, and we received so many compliments on the food & the display. Miriam truly goes out of her way with adding floral, and adding an elegant touch. We opted for a mix of appetizers, main courses, and desserts, and everything was absolutely delicious. I highly recommend them!

Border Grill Catering 

5.0

  • Serves Lawndale, CA

In 1985, Chef/Owners Susan Feniger and Mary Sue Milliken debuted the first Border Grill as a small, forty seat “taco stand” on Melrose out of a deep affection and appreciation of the Mexican kitchen. Effortlessly blending their classical culinary training with conscientiously-sourced ingredients, and regional recipes inspired by home cooks from Oaxaca to Mexico City, street vendors in Tijuana, and taco stands along the Yucatan and Baja coasts, the award-wining chefs continue to evolve their California-inflected Mexican-inspired cuisine.

We worked with Border Grill for our August wedding in Los Angeles, and we couldn't be happier! Working with them in the months leading up to the wedding were so easy, Taylor was super responsive and helpful in arranging everything. It was easy to get pricing and we really appreciated the transparency when getting pricing packages for different types of service. We ended up going with the taco buffet option, and we have received so many compliments on the food from our guests! On the day, the Border Grill team was prepared, professional, kind, and efficient. They helped out with all the little things like pouring water at the tables, busing cocktail glasses, and even kindly prepared plated dishes for me and my husband. We didn't have to worry about a thing for catering the entire day. The food was absolutely delicious! I highly recommend working with Border Grill for your event!

They were also able to bring pizzas out to the bar quickly enough that no one ever had to wait. They easily catered to dietary restrictions of our guests.

Aeriana's Bar & Catering

  • Starts at $120
  • Serves Lawndale, CA

I began working as a barback for an event company in LA and slowly worked my way up to bartender to working in bars full time. Along the way I realized I loved event work and was actually good at something (finally!) I quickly picked up great clients but then 2020 really gave me time to work on my food skills!

How Can this Be possible! Wow! After seeing all the arrangements and fragrance I said; Amazing: I said after tasting it! These were the two words that started me off when I dined at 'Aeriana's Bar & Catering' for the first time. Because in today's time and race of selfishness, I have seen such delicious food and pure food in very few places. The atmosphere of 'Aeriana's Bar & Catering' also seemed divine to me. Then the food has to be amazing and incomparable. May God provide this food to Every Home!

We’ve used food first events & catering three times now. The level of detail, service, and food is outstanding from begging to the end. These guys are pros. We even trusted them with our wedding. I wouldn’t do it any other way. They go above and beyond with helping with all the details of events to ensure the customer has an excellent time. Innovative ways of accommodating us and coming up with great ideas where all of our guests were amazed. The food is top notch quality. They accommodated diverse requests.

Your wedding is one of the most important events in your life. fundamental would love to help make it AMAZING by serving up some delicious food and taking exceptional care of you and your loved ones! We understand that planning a wedding can be a challenging task. After finding your perfect venue, simply call us! We’ll help you navigate the catering options and promise to make it enjoyable process for you and your spouse. Catering should be totally stress free and an enjoyable part of your planning; we are here to help!

Food was incredibly important to us, and we wanted our catering search to be stress-free, so we contacted Fundamental from our venue’s (SmogShoppe) recommended vendor list. From the moment we connected with Fundamental, Cindy made us feel confident we could have a fantastic meal within our budget. The tasting experience was particularly special—personal, delicious, and our favorite part of our planning process. We kept it simple with three passed appetizers for cocktail hour and a family-style dinner, but the food was anything but simple! Guests raved to us all night that it was the best wedding food they’d ever had—and we couldn’t agree more! Choosing a favorite dish is nearly impossible, but the fried chicken sliders, ahi tuna tacos, garlic basil sea bass, and wild mushroom pasta were definite standouts. For dessert, we initially planned to have pies from a local shop to add a personal touch, but with limited fridge space, we opted for Fundamental’s dessert bar. We’re so glad we did—everything was handled seamlessly, and the desserts were a huge hit. They also managed the bartending, including high-quality margaritas and Old Fashioneds that perfectly complemented the evening. All the food and drinks were exceptional, far beyond traditional wedding fare. I highly recommend Fundamental for all your catering needs!

Welcome. Buddha Boy Tacos is a one-of-a-kind culinary establishment with a menu inspired by the idea of authentic and honest cooking. Starting in 2019, we developed a unique dining experience for all of our guests using fresh and sustainable ingredients—taking you on a culinary journey like no other. From classic recipes to new-age kitchen adventures, each dish reflects our passion for high-quality food presented in a simple yet pleasing manner.

Buddha Boy Tacos was our 2024 wedding caterer, and also our bartending and dessert service - yes, they are a triple threat!! And they completely blew us away! We heard about their catering service from a friend and tried their tacos at a local pop up. Immediately after meeting Alexis and Marcus—and trying the food—we knew we wanted them on our special day. They had the best energy and took a genuine interest in us and our vision for the wedding. From that point on, they worked closely with us to create a personalized menu that suited us and our guests. Alexis was so good at making the planning process as painless as possible by making recommendations, pitching ideas, and meeting us multiple times at the event site. We got to try our apps, main course, and even cocktail options prior to our event. Their presentation on our wedding day was just beautiful, the food was delicious, and our guests are still raving about the churros! The bartending service was equally impressive. The bartenders were fun, efficient, and crafted some of the best cocktails we've ever had at a wedding (we might be biased). It is clear that Buddha Boy Tacos takes great pride in their work and goes above and beyond to exceed expectations. We could not have asked for a better experience and highly recommend them to anyone looking for top-notch catering for their event. Support this local South Bay small business and you will NOT regret it! THANK YOU, Alexis, Marcus, and the rest of the team, for making our wedding day unforgettable! :)

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!
