Smokin Buster's BBQ 

5.0

  • Starts at $2,500
  • Serves Rancho Santa Margarita, CA

We specialize in central texas style smoked meats. Brisket, Pulled Pork. Dino Ribs and Baby Back Ribs are just a few of the many meats we offer. Orders can be placed for buffet style catering or you can purchase each item by the pound or tray.

Tried a little bit of everything, and it was all delicious. Brisket was so tender, and ribs came right off the bone and packed with flavor (and I’m not even big on ribs). You can tell everything was cooked as if they were cooking for themselves! My 3yr old loved the pulled pork sliders too, and the Mac & cheese was, by far, the best I’ve had!

YOOSHI SUSHI CATERING & EVENT PRODUCTION 

5.0

  • Serves Rancho Santa Margarita, 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.
