About Border Grill Catering

Taylor Mochizuki

Catering Sales Manager

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.

Now with multiple Border Grill locations, food trucks, and a full-service events and catering business, the chef duo continue breaking barriers as female restaurateurs in a male-dominated industry, pioneering sustainability initiatives and developing their culinary offerings into cookbooks, radio and tv shows, and quick service spin-offs BBQ Mexicana and Pacha Mamas in Las Vegas, and their new restaurant Socalo in Santa Monica. At every location from Los Angeles to Las Vegas, the chefs combine fresh, flavorful and organic ingredients with hand shaken cocktails, vibrant design, and friendly service to create an unforgettable dining experience.

    Border Grill Catered & bartended for my wedding and I cannot say enough good things about them. From the start they were incredibly easy to work with, very transparent and fair with pricing, and handled everything flawlessly. Our contact, Taylor, was always available to talk and go over any questions we had (and often answered them before we had a chance to even ask them) and made us feel super re-assured about everything going into the wedding! The food was excellent and we received non-stop compliments from our guests with several people telling me it was the best wedding food that they'd ever had. The Oaxacan Old Fashioneds were such a hit that we ran out of Mezcal halfway through the night (which I was honestly glad about because I needed people to actually drink the rest of the alcohol I'd bought). Our wedding would not have been the same without them!

    My wife and I are so glad we chose Border Grill to cater our wedding this past May. Taylor at Border Grill was great to work with and she made it very easy to communicate with and was always there for help throughout the process. Border Grill’s staff and bartenders were friendly and worked efficiently. Numerous guests stated how much they enjoyed the cocktails the bartenders prepared.

    I am writing this review wayyyy too late (a little over 2 years after my wedding) and it has been eating me away inside because I need to give Border Grill all the praise they deserve. As a wedding planner myself, I had worked with Border Grill previously and found them to be so easy to work with as well as extremely professional. They always had the absolute best food so I knew when I was getting married they were at the top of my list! My husband at the time was hesitant as he isn’t the biggest fan of Mexican food even though I explained to him several times that it's a delicious modern fusion. Once we had our tasting he was sold! Taylor was so great to work with and so flexible with all our requests. We of course had to add on the churro tots for desserts as well as late night tamales. Nothing was left from either of those stations! We did a plated dinner and our guests could not stop raving about the choices, especially the short rib, it was a huge hit!

    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!
