From my very first inquiry, their team was incredibly responsive. They answered all of my questions quickly, made the planning process so easy, and were wonderful to work with every step of the way. The menu options are amazing! They offer such a great variety of delicious food, making it easy to create a menu that was perfect for our guests. Every single item was fresh, beautifully prepared, and absolutely delicious. We received so many compliments throughout the evening, and people are still talking about the food! The presentation was beyond stunning. The entire setup was elegant, thoughtfully designed, and truly elevated the look and feel of the party. It became a focal point that guests couldn't stop admiring. On top of that, everyone on the TMC team was so kind, professional, and genuinely cared about making the event special. At the end of the night, they quietly and efficiently cleaned everything up, allowing me to simply enjoy the celebration without worrying about a thing. If you're looking for a caterer that delivers exceptional food, beautiful presentation, outstanding service, and a stress-free experience, TMC is the one. I would hire them again in a heartbeat!

Our team devoured the seafood paella, the vodka pasta, the paprika chicken, empanadas. Everyone loved the beef and chicken sliders and I had many options for our vegan and vegetarians. As long as I have been hosting our office events the team has never praised a caterer the way they did with you. I gave all who asked the name of your company as they were very impressed. Many asked when you can return with more food. This event was a viewing party for the FIFA World cup semi-finals and as everyone sat and watched the match, I will say your food overshined what was on TV. The delivery gentleman was so nice and kind arrived at 11am and set up the perfect display for us, it was overall a great experience. Thank you so much for a great menu and the best customer service.

From start to finish, communication during the booking process was prompt, professional, and incredibly easy. The tacos were delicious! They were fresh, flavorful, and cooked on site. The tacos came with beans, rice, cilantro, onions, and three different types of salsa, all of which were fresh and very tasty. Our guests kept going back for seconds and were raving about the food throughout the party. A special shoutout to Ernesto, our taco man for the event. He was so friendly, super nice, and provided excellent service to all of our guests. He made the experience seamless and enjoyable. If you're looking for catering for a party or event, I highly recommend Ask 4 Tacos. They helped make my daughter's birthday celebration a huge success!

Silver Spoons made everything happen, put the numerous gorgeous bouquets that people brought away in the perfect vases, which Scott or his team somehow found on their own without bothering me. They made everything look delicious despite the unbelievable heat, and then, on top of everything else - everything WAS delicious and delightful. The food was fantastic. And Scott Tessler and his team all talked to our guests in such a nice way. It was fun to have them there. We have used Silver Spoons intermittently over the years - for our daughter's wedding in Malibu in 2015, and now again, to introduce her baby to our friends and family. I'm beginning to think we should do this more often - the results from Scott and Silver Spoons are outstanding. After our event was over, exhausted, we came back to our kitchen, and discovered scads of perfectly wrapped leftovers - Steve and I simultaneously went hunting for that incredible mustard - oh, no, did they leave us some? Yes! You left us a significant amount, nicely wrapped up. And you cleaned up the kitchen beautifully! Even mopped! Everything was left in perfect order. I've been enjoying all the leftovers now for a few days. We have already given Silver Spoons' contact information to one guest at the party, who was very impressed with its work. Many of our guests were already familiar with Silver Spoons from their experiences at University Synagogue (now part of Wilshire Boulevard Temple). The food, the presentation, interaction with guests, following of dietary/allergy restrictions - all perfect. We had magnificent vegetables for the vegans, gluten-free dishes of all kinds that were superb, regular dishes that were wonderful - the food was great. And the service is exceptional. Our baby grandson had a grand debut in the Millers' back yard, and Silver Spoons Catering was a big part of that. Silver Spoons did a wonderful job, and we thank them for it.

Rutt's Catering is hands down, by far, the best catering experience I have ever had. It was so good, I had to email the owner and here is what I said: ---- Hi Paul, You and your team are the best! The service I received from Rutt's Catering was OUTSTANDING. My colleague and I were so impressed with it ALL: Quality (everyone raved about the food--the best we've served them!), temperature (the food was PIPING hot...so hot that we needed mitts to uncover the food), portion (while it didn't look like enough, it was PLENTY), speed of service and promptness (we arrived 10 minutes earlier than our stated pick up time for the 1st order and the last of the order was being packed...we left exactly at the requested pick up time...but even MORE impressive was the food delivery to Malibu for the 2nd order was ALSO on time...was actually 10 minutes early--this has never happened before!), accuracy and packaging of order (everything was labeled clearly, packaged perfectly and nothing was wrong), and EVERYTHING in between (Paul was easy to work with when placing the order...even had a few changes and it wasn't an issue...they even provide name tents/food labels). Thank you for the best office catering experience. You should teach a class on it! --- Because of this experience, I will be reaching out to order Tuts Egyptian Food catering (affiliated with Rutts) for our next catering order. Thanks!

tl;dr even if charcuterie boards and boutique home goods aren't your thing, don't miss the…read morenot-so-secret farm-to-table sandwich selection Lady & Larder is no stranger to the spotlight. This tiny Santa Monica wine-and-cheese concept debuted in 2016, and their charcuterie boards earned acclaim from Oprah and The New York Times alike. During the pandemic, Lady & Larder ventured into the sandwich game, and the result was a resounding success. Nowadays, the not-so-secret "Secret Lunch" lineup of gourmet sandwiches is among the best in Los Angeles. The tiny Santa Monica shop shares the block with a Sherwin-Williams and a boxing gym. Cross your fingers for metered street parking on the trafficky block of Pico. Outside, red metal patio furniture is shaded by the overhanging storefront. Natural light runs through multicolored windows to the shop within. The mosaic tiled floor is effortlessly chic. The soaring whitewashed walls are minimally decorated, while shelves and refrigerators are carefully curated with wines, cheeses, tinned fish, and candles. The tablet register is set up on a worn kitchen countertop. Soft, instrumental music immediately feels welcoming. I've visited multiple times for early weekend lunch, and our Toast pre-order was ready upon arrival. We grabbed a table outside, and numerous takeout customers popped in and out during our meal. My favorite was the Disco Only. This elevated turkey club featured an impressive depth of flavor, from the sharp alpine cheese to the rich garlic mayo to the tangy pepperoncini vinegar. The thick-cut Bub and Grandma's sesame bread held up admirably well, and the arugula added a welcome fresh factor. The proteins were plentiful but were outshone by the other components. I also loved the Hot Girl Salami. The sweet-and-hot mustard and crispy baguette accentuated the rich, almost buttery salami. Meanwhile, the Venice Cowgirl was like a cheeseboard on a baguette. The sweet peaches and apricot-habanero jam dominated the subtly rich cheese or thin prosciutto, but the sandwich nonetheless proved to be a unique, summery option worth sharing. Lastly, the Yes, Honey elevated the ham-and-cheese with tangy relish, but the other components felt standard and forgettable. The service was friendly and efficient, and sandwiches ran for $15-20 each. Overall, the food tasted like the Santa Monica Farmer's Market on a premium roll, with sandos ranging from good to excellent. They are worth a dedicated visit if you're in the neighborhood, and I can't wait to work my way through more of Lady & Larder's menu.
