Magilla's Barbecue 

5.0

  • Starts at $900
  • Serves Santa Ana, 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 was the best part of our wedding day. They were thoughtful, generous, and caring throughout. The quality of their work and value was truly unmatched - the food was absolutely delicious and our guests raved about it long after the wedding - so much so that people who did not even go to the wedding have asked me about it! They went above and beyond to care for us and our guests, even making a custom quesadilla for our hungry daughter during photos. Beyond that, they went out of their way to hand deliver it to her upstairs. The Nomada team made our special day truly memorable, and we couldn't recommend them more highly.

Working with Honey and Hive was so easy, from start to finish. Nancy is so kind and truly does all she can to make her clients happy! We hired Honey & Hive Boards to provide appetizers for our wedding this April; we ended up doing little charcuterie cups styled in glass jars that were beautiful as well as a large grazing board.

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! On our wedding day, everything went smoothly and the Summit staff was fantastic. We look back at the catering portion of our wedding with fond memories. Thank you Summit & Pam!

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.

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.

Here at Cutting Edge Catering we understand that one size does not fit all when it comes to catering, so we've made it all about you. You choose what you like and what works best for your vision, budget and dream, then we make it happen.

We cannot say enough great things about Cutting Edge and are so thankful we hired them as our wedding caterer. They were listed as a "preferred vendor" at our venue and, after an intro phone call with Jessica, my husband and I quickly knew they were the team we wanted to go with. She was so helpful from the start, answering all of our questions, and made us feel really comfortable with the services and flexibility they offered. On top of that, their prices are incredibly reasonable. Throughout the coming months, Jessica, Jeremy, and Angel were great about communicating with us. The tasting was one of our favorite memories from being engaged - such a fun experience (in the most gorgeous venue!) and we were all completely blown away by the food. The hardest part was narrowing down what we wanted to include on our menu... Fast forward to the wedding, where the entire staff knocked it out of the park. Our guests raved about the food, service, and presentation, and it was such a relief to know the Cutting Edge team had everything taken care of. One guest even told us they mistakenly assumed a waiter was on our wedding planner's team because he was just that helpful and knowledgeable! Talk about someone going above and beyond at their job. It's very clear that Cutting Edge cares about its clients and will do whatever they can to make your "catering dreams" come true. We're so grateful to the entire team and hope we have a chance to work with them again in the future. Thank you, Cutting Edge, for all you did to make our wedding day amazing!
