Magilla's Barbecue

  • Starts at $900
  • Serves San Clemente, 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!

Nomada is boutique taco catering service based in Irvine specializing in traditional yet modern Mexican cuisine. We are passionate about quality ingredients, exquisite presentation and unparalleled service.

Awarded Best of Zola
My cousin, giving advice to me for my wedding, said, "No one remembers the food at weddings, its just chicken or fish, don't sweat it", and I took that as a challenge. With a sizeable contingent of my family having celiac disease, and being gluten and dairy intolerant myself, I wanted to find a meal that was majority restriction-diet friendly without non-restricted guests noticing. NOMADA's menu was perfect for our crowd - the passed apps, mobile kitchen taco bar, and all the fixings, sides, and beverages were all gluten and dairy free, and no one with celiac got sick. In addition, our venue did not have a kitchen, so their mobile outdoor kitchen set-up meant we had fresh, hot tortillas and tacos, instead of food cooked offside and reheated right before service. It was a smash hit - Guests went back for seconds and thirds. Salsas ranged from mild to medium spiciness, but were all so flavorful they didn't need to be spicier, and the yellow salsa especially was the talk of the night. The service, presentation, taste, and everything was perfect; at least two friends who attended the wedding are planning to use them for future events they were so impressed. The appetizer meatballs - a can't miss.

When we were planning for our wedding, my husband were looking for things that we loved and wanted to share with our family and friends. I had been following Nancy’s work/business on Instagram and knew I wanted to incorporate my and my husbands favorite snack — a charcuterie board. Nancy was very professional, communicative, and listened. I had a vision of how our grazing table would look and Nancy brought my vision to life. She was very detailed and decorative. My grazing table had a large variety of cheese, fruits (fresh and dry), jams, dips, honey, several different types of breads/breadsticks and mini Belgian waffles. The decorations and layout was very well thought out and made with lots of love and detail. My guests absolutely loved the grazing table and it was the talk of the night. I highly recommend Nancy.

Additionally, Summit allowed us to make several reasonable alterations to our chosen package, which we were really grateful for, due to several guest allergies, etc! Pam was incredibly communicative throughout our entire working relationship and we are so grateful. She made the process so easy!

YOOSHI SUSHI CATERING & EVENT PRODUCTION

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.

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!
