    Aly is SO nice, professional and incredibly talented! Couldn't be happier with the Christmas meal she prepared for my large family gathering last December. I've also attended several other events since then where she has catered and they've all been so wonderful! The attention to detail she puts into everything she prepares is unmatched and you can truly see the passion she has for her profession in her work. Thank you Aly! Can't recommend you enough!

    Chef Aly is not only an incredible Chef but also passionate and creative. She goes above and beyond to create exciting and delicious meals. I've been to quite a few events that Chef Aly has catered and her presentation looks straight out of a magazine and tastes as good as it looks. I highly recommend The Inspired Palate.

    Butter board with melted shallots and edible flowers.  Gorgeous and delicious!

    I have had Chef Aly's food at various events throughout the last few years and it has always been delicious and beautifully presented. After following her for a while, we decided to order from her Thanksgiving menu last year. We got the butter board which was gorgeous and a huge hit! So much so that we ordered it again this year. Super easy pick up. Although, I believe she offers delivery for an additional fee.

    Chef Aly did an incredible job for us for my daughter's high school graduation party in my home. She was a pleasure to work with from start to finish. The food was incredible and beautiful! She and her assistant Annabelle were so much fun and very professional. I am so happy we went with Chef Aly and The Inspired Palate. The catering service was top notch! I can't recommend her enough!

    See all

My order: * The Farm Club: You really can't go wrong with this one. The pickled red onions and herb aioli give it such a nice tang compared to a standard club sandwich. The turkey was high-quality and the bread held up perfectly. * Spicy Curried Couscous: I had to grab a side of their signature couscous, and it didn't disappoint. It has that signature roasted cauliflower and just the right amount of spice to balance out the sandwich. It's easily one of the best sides on their menu. The highlight of this visit was definitely sitting outside (inside is ok, a bit noisy and crowded). The patio area is clean, spacious, and perfect for catching some sun while you eat but most tables are shaded by umbrellas. Even though it's right off PCH, it's a great spot to relax and enjoy the El Segundo breeze. A couple Tips: * Parking: The plaza can get a little tight during the peak lunch hour, so give yourself a few extra minutes or try to arrive just before the 12:00 PM rush. * Ordering: If you're in a hurry, their mobile pickup is always super seamless at this location and can help you get in and out or you can take your food and eat in the park like courtyard area. I'll definitely be back next time I'm craving a solid sandwich and some fresh air!

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!

I am sure this is a one-off issue…read more Flavors are delicious] The first time I came here back in June, I had a great experience and a great meal. However, since I've been back a few times, the consistency and care is extremely lacking. I always order the chicken caesar sandwich which comes as a wrap (I love this). It has always come in "wrap" form, despite falling apart quite a bit since the first time, but when I ordered it tonight it came in taco form with a wrap on top of the "taco". Much more difficult to eat, and it was clear there was no/minimal dressing within the sandwich. I also found a chicken bone in my meal, which makes me wonder about the standards staff are held to. I would not be writing this review if not for the chicken bone (picture attached), as the food is quite good and the staff gives exceptional service. Though the flavors in the food are nothing short of incredible (especially the sauce that comes with the Caesar sando) I am concerned about the care/storage of the food placed for customer consumption.

This family-owned business has been serving the community for over 30 years around the South Bay, and you can definitely taste the experience in their food. The rotisserie chicken was my favorite: perfectly seasoned, juicy, and cooked just right. It's the kind of simple, satisfying dish that keeps people coming back. I also really enjoyed the Greek salad, which was super fresh and loaded with crisp veggies and quality ingredients. It paired perfectly with the chicken. Another highlight was the service. Cecilia, the manager, was incredibly friendly and helpful, making the whole experience feel welcoming and personal. You can tell they genuinely care about their customers. Great food, fresh ingredients, and warm hospitality from a long-standing local business. If you're in El Segundo, definitely stop by and check them out.

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.

I accidentally placed my online order at the wrong location (rookie mistake on my part). Thankfully, Chris stepped in, assessed the situation, called the other location, helped cancel the order, and got me taken care of quickly. What could have turned into a lunch-time scavenger hunt became a smooth and stress-free experience. I was able to leave with my exact order and make it to my next commitment on time. That's the kind of customer service people remember. As a business owner myself, I know great customer service creates loyal customers and drives retention. Chris turned a potential headache into a positive experience, and that's worth recognizing. I'll definitely be back for the Veggie Variety Plate. Hopefully next time I can manage to order from the correct location the first time!
