Little Lily's Kitchen 
Rating: 5.0 (5 reviews)
  • Serves Pasadena, CA

At Little Lily’s Kitchen in Los Angeles, we understand the difference between "custom" and "bespoke". One is choosing bits and pieces of someone else's vision, and the other is actually creating something that is YOUR vision. We start with a blank sheet of paper, and on that, we work with you to create an experience that is all about you and yours. A reflection of the couple. Something to be genuinely excited about sharing with your guests. Our chefs build a completely original menu for you, after an in-depth consultation is completed. The consultation allows us to understand the vision for your guest experience and individual needs.

Kevin, Kari, Brooke & team made our Wedding Reception experience fantastic. We had a very specific vision and they were able to help us execute on it after a round of tasting. The guests loved it as well!

    YOOSHI SUSHI CATERING & EVENT PRODUCTION 
    Rating: 5.0 (8 reviews)
    • Serves Pasadena, 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.

    From our first conversation with Buttercup Catering, we knew we were in good hands. The owner showed up early on our wedding day and immediately understood what I wanted, then directed the team with such clarity that everything ran like clockwork. She communicated with us every step of the way, keeping things straightforward and easy to understand. Her hard work and focus paid off, the food was delicious and beautifully presented, and all our guests kept raving about it even a week later! Kelly made sure every detail reflected what mattered to us. We cannot recommend her highly enough and our guests constantly asked us who she was and how to reach her! She also handled my bouquet and our tablescapes. I am more than happy to be with her and if I were to do it again, I would go with her in a heartbeat!

    working in New York pizzerias, moving through different shops, long shifts, high volume, no shortcuts. That’s where the standard was set. Five years ago, I moved to Los Angeles and bought my first pizza truck with one goal: bring real New York–style pizza to the West Coast. We focused strictly on catering, built for speed, consistency, and large crowds. Since then, we’ve grown into a high-volume catering operation, serving hundreds of guests per event and working with brands like Nike, Skechers, Netflix, Amazon, and Alo. We know how to execute — on time, under pressure, and at scale.

    NY Pizza House was incredible! They catered our event flawlessly, serving hot, authentic New York style pizza to a large crowd. The team was professional, efficient, and made everything easy for us. The food was a huge hit everyone loved it! Highly recommend for any corporate or private event.

    Border Grill Catering 
    Rating: 5.0 (6 reviews)
    • Serves Pasadena, 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.

    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!

    I founded Fusion Events to answer a call that I heard. It was that feeling that I could found a business that would push boundaries and allow me to deliver what my clients wanted. Food and Events that are Fresh, Bold, and Memorable.

    I found Fusion Events LA while searching for wedding vendors because I wanted catering that our guests would actually remember—not just typical wedding food. After reading so many great reviews, I called Felicia, and from our first conversation I knew I wanted to work with her. She was so welcoming, organized, and genuinely cared about bringing our vision to life. When our original venue fell through, Felicia stepped in with her day-of coordination services, and I couldn’t be more grateful. On our wedding day, everything ran so smoothly. I DIY’d a lot of our décor, and her team set everything up beautifully, exactly how I had envisioned it. The food was absolutely phenomenal, and our guests are still talking about it! From catering to coordination, bartending, servers, and décor setup, Fusion Events LA truly does it all. I can’t thank Felicia and her team enough for making our wedding day everything we dreamed of. I highly recommend them!

    Critic’s Choice Catering & Event Production, Inc. 
    Rating: 5.0 (4 reviews)
    • Serves Pasadena, CA

    Founded by individuals passionate for creating a deliciously, interactive party environment. We are Critic’s Choice, a family owned and operated full service catering and event production company based in Redondo Beach, CA. We began our culinary journey in 1984 and have remained true to our core values since the very start. We believe in honest, fair pricing and locally sourced, custom menus made from scratch, with love daily. We invite you to taste the magic and help us celebrate decades of client satisfaction, successful event production and outstanding cuisine.

    I absolutely loved working with Critics Choice Catering for our wedding! They were incredibly accommodating with our budget, which we truly appreciated. One of the biggest highlights was that the venue partners directly with Critics Choice, so having both the catering and tableware handled in-house removed so much stress from the planning process. Kaycie was wonderful to work with — enthusiastic, organized, and genuinely invested in bringing our vision to life. From our very first tour to the food tasting and final details meeting, she listened carefully to our needs and was always quick to respond to every text or call. Everything turned out picture-perfect, and it was magical seeing the venue transformed for our big day. Kaycie also provided excellent vendor recommendations, which saved me so much time since we had a short planning timeline. We used her suggested photographer, florist, and bridal party makeup team, and they were all fantastic. I highly recommend adding the day-of coordination with Kaycie and her team. I didn’t have to answer a single question on the wedding day — everything ran seamlessly. The coordinators were amazing, especially when I had a bustle mishap with my dress and they fixed it in seconds! They truly took care of us all evening, greeting us with drinks and appetizers upon arrival and managing the timeline perfectly. The Critics Choice Catering chef curated a French-inspired wedding menu to reflect us as a Franco-American couple, and the ideas were absolutely amazing. We selected appetizers including a fruit and cheese board, goat cheese and onion puff pastry, and smoked salmon crème fraîche blinis. For dinner, we enjoyed a French winter pear, blue cheese, and endive salad, followed by boeuf bourguignon, magret de canard (duck breast), ratatouille, and gratin dauphinois potatoes. We even had a late-night snack of al pastor tacos with pineapple salsa, which was a huge hit! The food tasting experience was excellent, and overall the food on the wedding day was outstanding. Unfortunately, the duck was slightly overcooked and a few of my immediate family members were served later than others, minimal complaints. Aside from that, everything was excellent — and the bartender was absolutely outstanding! Overall, between the incredible catering, thoughtful menu, seamless coordination, and amazing service, Critics Choice Catering truly helped make our wedding day unforgettable. I highly recommend them to any couple looking for an stress-free and delicious wedding experience.

We understand that planning a wedding can be a challenging task. 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!

    Communication with BonAppeCheese was great throughout the planning process. They arrived on time and their work made our wedding day truly special. Everyone loved the delicious meal they served, which paired perfectly with our signature Sangria cocktail. The display of the food was beautiful, and we are very grateful for the exceptional service they provided to make our celebration a success.
