Once again Gourmet Gourmet hit it out of the park. A big shout out to Gabriel, Ana, Coco, Martita, Delia, Jorge and Patti. You all did such a wonderful job with my Christmas Party and the Celebration of Life we put on a few months later. I have used this catering company for bridal showers and a baby shower and have always received such amazing service and delicious food. If you want a catering company that will come in and take over so you have nothing to do but enjoy your party or event, this is the catering company you should choose. Hands down. I am so totally impressed with their professionalism and they are such a pleasure to work with. My love to you all!! Gena read more

Gourmet Gourmet Catering - This is how they decorated for my Christmas party. They brought in their own decorations and dressed up in Christmas outfits for the party. - Caterers Near Me - Upland, California

I had my wedding two weeks ago and I am beyond happy and blown away by the service of Gourmet Gourmet catering. The coordinators Niquey and Gabriel went above and beyond to accommodate my groom and me. They took care of everything including the set up of the other vendors such as the dj, photobooth, photographer and florist. Gourmet gourmet catering is a full service catering company that not only provided food, but also includes the rentals of tables, chairs, linens and bar service! Gourmet gourmet did not dissapoint. Their food was amazing! I still have people raving about how tender the brisket was and how savory the salmon was. The artisan bread was beautifully displayed and the cheese grazing table was the talk of the wedding. There was unexpected rain and the catering and rental crew had to accommodate for last minute changes of adding a tent and heaters which was done flawlessly. The service of the serving crew was phenomenal and I would definitely hire gourmet gourmet catering for my next event. read more

I knew from the moment I met Kai that it would be a pleasure to work with him for my wedding at The California Botanic Garden. And it was! Kai was so upbeat, enthusiastic, and helpful. We didn't even try the food before booking Gourmet Gourmet's services. Fortunately, their food was such a memorable part of our wedding and all the guests raved about it. My husband and I can't imagine our wedding without having Kai's coordinating skills - he made every part of the process a joy. read more

Gourmet Gourmet Catering - Caterers Near Me - Upland, California

As a wedding planner of over 15 years, I have had the pleasure of coordinating weddings from San Diego to Napa...large and small, back yards to ballrooms, traditional, bohemian, elegant and casual! Each one unique unto itself! So, this review comes with a lot of experience behind it! This wedding was for my nephew and his beautiful bride...the venue was the incredible Bridges Auditorium at the Claremont Colleges...we all wanted it to be perfect for them. The great news....IT WAS!!! The wedding ended about 24 hours ago and my phone hasn't stopped ringing since! Numerous friends and family members couldn't wait to tell us what a fabulous event it was. They raved about the ambiance, the food, the service, and what a great time everyone was having! I can't say enough about Mark, caterer extraordinaire, of Gourmet Gourmet. From the walk-thru the month before, to the venue clean-up, he was the most attentive, helpful, accommodating, and pleasant person to deal with. Every small detail was executed promptly and with a smile. He took a personal interest in the newlyweds, our family and the other guests. There were plenty of tasks that I normally take care of as a coordinator that he took care of without being asked to do so. The food was probably the BEST wedding meal I have ever had..and remember, I've had a lot of them! The couple chose a buffet menu and every item served was simply delicious! Our family loves a good meal and I would bet that there was not a morsel of food left! Even the horseradish sauce is getting rave reviews! The staff was extremely professional and vey attentive to the needs of each guest. My water glass was refilled twice without my even realizing it had been done! The bartenders were friendly and efficient in mixing and serving the drinks. Everything came together in a most beautiful way to make the wedding and reception memorable and fun for everyone there. I would VERY highly recommend Gourmet Gourmet to my own future clients and to anyone who appreciates great food and great service! Thank you, Mark, for your efforts in making Luka & Destinee's wedding the perfect event that it was! read more

Kai was amazing and he made my dream wedding come to life! I wish I could go back and do it all over again. Kai and his team were on top of everything and as a procrastinator I'm so glad I chose Kai and his team for my wedding because I wouldn't have been able to do it without them. Kai introduced me to Angie Flores who was my day of wedding coordinator and she was amazing and so professional, I also had the Ultimate music Dj as my wedding Dj and he played all of the music I wanted and made my playlist better than i could have ever imagined. My husband and I love music and Raymond Flores - DJ did not disappoint, he did great. THANK YOU FOREVER KAI AND TEAM FOR DOING SUCH AN AMAZINH JOB!!! I will forever be grateful and will always remember how amazing my wedding was because of you all. Many blessings and love. read more

We recently had the pleasure of working with Kai McCall and his team at Gourmet Gourmet Catering for our outdoor wedding at the California Botanic Garden in Claremont and wholeheartedly recommend them. From the moment we reached out to Gourmet Gourmet Catering, Kai was fantastic to work with. Despite the tight timeline (we hired them just two months before our wedding), Kai and his team ensured that every detail of our wedding was executed beautifully. Their dedication and attention to our needs made the planning process smooth and the results exceptional. Kai's responsiveness was truly impressive. No question or concern was too small for him to address promptly and with a smile. He took the time to understand our vision for the wedding and worked tirelessly to bring it to life with an infectious enthusiasm. His passion for what he does was evident in every interaction, making us feel genuinely supported throughout the process. We appreciated the thoughtful food tasting event he organized, allowing us to sample menu options and get insights from their talented chef. Kai's close relationship with the management of the California Botanic Garden was extremely helpful as he was able to negotiate a number of important details with the venue that ensured our event matched our vision.   On the day of the wedding Gourmet Gourmet Catering executed flawlessly. Kai helped to put us all at ease by quickly navigating the logistics of the delayed arrival of key wedding party members,  The outdoor set up was perfect and enhanced the natural beauty of the botanic garden. And the food! The food was not only delicious but beautifully presented, earning rave reviews from our guests. The service was excellent, ensuring that each guest was served the entrée they had pre-selected and that addressed any dietary restrictions they had identified. Furthermore, Gourmet Gourmet went out of their way to ensure the comfort of everyone while ensuring that my bride and I were handed food and beverages so we could focus on spending time with our friends and family.  Kai's professionalism, creativity, and genuine enthusiasm turned what could have been a stressful planning process into a delightful journey.

I've had the pleasure of attending a number of events at the Padua Hills Theater in Claremont and love the food from Gourmet Gourmet. I have dietary restrictions and they were fully and deliciously accommodated. I'd post a picture but I already ate it! read more

We had a 90th birthday party for my dad with 100 guests that gourmet gourmet catered. I have used them several times over the years. I cannot say enough about them. The food was delicious, the wait staff was attentive and went above and beyond bussing the tables and cleaning up after so the place was spotless when they left. The price was reasonable. All the guests loved the food. Will keep using them in the future. I highly recommend them. Shelly Mai headed the team to make sure it went well. She did a great job. read more

My hospital in Upland had a special banquet held for students at La Villa Bella and Gourmet Gourmet did not disappoint. They had exceptional staff and exceptional food that all enjoyed during our event. We are grateful for their service and professionalism. Kai was also very attentive and answered all our questions in a timely manner. We will certainly consider working with Gourmet Gourmet again. read more

Kai went above and beyond to make our event the best day of our lives. We came to him with just 3 weeks to finish planning everything because our first venue had structural damage and had to cancel! Kai handled everything so flawlessly, I felt less stress with him than I did the whole year I had been planning. The food was amazing. All of our guests are still talking about it a month later. There was so much to eat, and it was truly delicious. In addition to that, he was able to recommend vendors I would need and help push that along quickly, considering my 3 week timeline. He checked in with me often and I felt so reassured. Every single staff member was so sweet and helpful throughout the whole evening as well. Whenever there were any small hiccups, Kai was first on the scene (I can't thank him enough) I don't know how he does it! read more

We just had our wedding in June at the California Botanic Garden in Claremont and used Gourmet Gourmet for catering, tables, chairs, linens, string lights and bar service. Everything was absolutely perfect and it turned out so so beautiful! We worked with Shelly Mei in coordinating our event and she was so nice and readily available via text and email for any little question we had. We had a plated, sit down dinner with an open bar and signature cocktails. We received multiple compliments from our guests about how good the food was and how smooth the whole event turned out. We picked the Salmon with champagne sauce and the Chicken Piccata, both with caramelized onion mashed potatoes and veg for dinner and it was incredibly delicious! The appetizers were amazing also and we especially loved the stuffed mushrooms with sausage (also made vegetarian for some of our guests). We are beyond grateful for Shelly Mei and the GG team. You made our special day incredible and we will never forgot how pleasant and accommodating everyone was to work with. I had a lot of questions and requests and Shelly was able to say yes to all I wanted to make my vision come to life. Thank you, thank you! read more

We had our wedding ceremony and reception at the California Botanic Garden, and we could not be more happy with how everything turned out. This is in large part thanks to Kai and his team at Gourmet Gourmet Catering. We toured a lot of venues in the LA area after our engagement, and so many of them seemed like the catering came with a serious wedding surcharge. The food and beverage prices at GG seemed quite reasonable by comparison. The food turned out to be delicious too, we received a lot of compliments on it. But this review is about more than just the food. Kai basically took on the role as day-of coordinator, and helped to make everything run smoothly. He even ran back to the bridal room to grab my bouquet, as I had forgotten it as we were lining up to walk down the aisle. He is a true professional at what he does. We're glad we chose GG! read more

They were hired on for my sisters wedding and just were phenomenal. They went above and beyond in every aspect. I'm not sure why this only says catering because they held every detail and were there from beginning to end to make sure everything went off without issue.

We used Gourmet Gourmet back in 2004 for our wedding and they were absolutely fantastic, delicious and professional. We recently just used them again for our grandmothers celebration of life. Once again they were amazing. Please do not hesitate...your event will be perfect! Thank you Gourmet Gourmet!!! read more

This is long over due. I can't thank Aubrey, Mark and the team at Gourmet Gourmet Catering enough for their attention to detail and outstanding customer service. Their expertise made our wedding day more than we could ever imagine and I am forever grateful for such a perfect day! We got married in the summer months at Bridges Auditorium and despite not having centralized air, Gourmet Gourmet brought in a cooling unit that is disguised as part of the ballroom wall. If you are planning a summer wedding at this venue, I highly recommend a wedding ceremony at 5:30pm or later. Doing so will allow for the main ballroom to cool down with the air system they provide and will make for a much more comfortable experience for you and your guest. Ok, so let's talk about the food. I completely went out on a limb in choosing Gourmet Gourmet Catering. In fact, they more or less chose me because if you reserve Bridges as your venue, you have to utilize their catering company. And let me tell you, THEY DID NOT DISAPPOINT!! You guys, their food is SO GOOD. We went to two group tasting and they give you a full on dinner experience. Not just little samples, but a full plate of food lol. They also do a variety of display and tray passes Hors D' Ouveres. It's been 7 months since our wedding and people are still telling us our wedding had the best wedding food they've ever had. And They are not lying. The food and service is just that good! I attached a spreadsheet of our menu so you can see what we ended up getting, but let me tell you, the the Gourmet Stilton Salad, Honey Garlic Sriracha Salmon, Filet Mignon and Mushroom Lasagna are indescribably delish. If and when my husband and I have a baby, we will definitely be using Gourmet Gourmet Catering for our baby shower. Overall, our experience was grade A and I am so thankful to have worked with this well established and seasoned team. Do yourself a solid and book them today! read more

Kai and the team at Gourmet Gourmet made our wedding at the California Botanic Garden so special. The energy and focus they put into our event really showed. Our guests had a wonderful time and are continuing to rave about their experience. We could not be more thankful for their guidance, patience, and honesty throughout the planning process. Working with such an experienced and positive team helped ease our anxieties leading up to the event. We are so thankful that we had incredible people around us to fix any small issues that came up-- oftentimes, before we even noticed! In addition, the food was all that we had hoped for and more. We were really able to appreciate the food when we ate the leftovers the next day. read more

My son's wedding was at La Villa Bella in Upland and one of the preferred caterers was Mark with Gourmet Gourmet. We went to the tasting and that really sold us. Everything we tried was delicious. I know you don't go to a wedding for the food, but this food was fantastic! There were 3 passed hors d'oeuvres. We chose the Cuban Cigars, Bruschetta & the Artichoke Phyllo rolls. All wonderful and the guests were raving about them. For our dinner, we did a buffet with the Chicken Piccata, wild rice, veggies, salad and rolls. We also had an Artichoke/mushroom lasagna for our vegetarian guests. I could not tell you which was my favorite. My son and daughter in law did not want a traditional wedding cake so they opted for the cut cheesecake and mini chocolate cakes. I did not try the chocolate cake, but I did hear that it was delicious. The cheesecake was phenomenal. It was like double crusted and soo good. Thank you to Mark and his team for all of your assistance and guidance while I planned this affair. I truly appreciated your patience with me. It was an epic night!!! :) read more

Everything was absolutely wonderful from the food to the service. Kai was absolutely amazing and helpful the entire time.

I have known Mark Furuuchi for over 20 years. I first met him when he was the Director of Events at the DoubleTree Hotel in Ontario and helped me with my annual Heartbeat Gala. His attention to detail and selection of foods, decorations, entertainment, etc., was greatly appreciated. When he left DoubleTree and bought Gourmet Gourmet I though our business relationship would have ended. Fortunately, Mark has come through for me with events that needed catering at the Hospital. Our Grand Opening for our Robert and Beverly Lewis Outpatient Pavilion was a huge success and our major donors, board members, community friends could not stop talking about how wonderful the event was and the food was superb! Mark arranged for the Tent, tables, linens, sound system, music, and of course the amazing food! Not only is Mark a business relationship, but we are friends for life. He has a wonderful sense of humor and is definitely a people person. Don't hesitate to have Gourmet Gourmet cater your event. You can't go wrong!

The best wedding I've ever been to and it just happened to be mine!! I've been a corporate meeting/event planner and have attended a lot of banquets, meetings & weddings. I can definitely say that Gourmet Gourmet did a fabulous job with all the details. Everything came out better than I could have ever imagined. Their package deal was the best in Orange County. You can have the ceremony with the runner, flowers, arch, and chairs. And the reception with delicious food, passed hors doeuvres, cake, dance floor, heaters, and unlimited bar for a really great price. We received so many compliments from our guests about how our wedding was the nicest and most romantic they have ever attended. Vanessa and Aubrey really did a fantastic job updating me on all the details and walking me through the tasting, settings, timeline, etc. I highly recommend Gourmet Gourmet Catering. read more

I've struggled to get together the words to express my gratitude towards Gourmet Gourmet, particularly Kai. I got married at California Botanic Garden in May 2022. From the beginning Kai and his team went above and beyond to make me feel supported and heard throughout the whole wedding planning process. Kai is organized, thorough, and so detail oriented. It really eased a lot of the wedding planning stress. Since GG offers inclusive packages, it took a lot of stress out of having to find and juggle multiple vendors. (My package came with things like tables, chairs, linens, bar, catering, cake etc.) The customization of many of these elements took the "stiffness" of other prepacked weddings and really allowed me to make it my own! As far as the wedding day, I could not have dreamed of a better team to put together my big day. AGAIN, Kai and his entire team went ABOVE AND BEYOND to make the day go smooth. It was absolutely perfect. The staff was so kind and accommodating for all the guests. The food was AMAZING. I have guests literally asking me to email Kai to get the recipe for certain items we had on the menu that night! Even the pickiest of eaters in my family enjoyed the food! That says A LOT. The bar was also provided through GG, and they were so awesome! So fast and made really good drinks. I had so many compliments about all the appetizers, food, and drinks that night. GG was a dream to work with and I cannot recommend them more for future events. One last note before I end this review, as a member of a 'particularly hard to please' family- I received countless compliments on Kai and his dedication to ensuring that our event ran smoothly. He is so amazing at what he does and truly deserves ALL the praise for what a perfect night our wedding was! read more

What can be said that has not already been stated? I had a backyard wedding with about 160 guests on May 16, 2015. My wedding was one month ago today, and I have nothing but absolutely positive things to say about Gourmet Gourmet! Aubrey was absolutely amazing to work with during the whole wedding planning process. She puts you at ease with her great energy, positivity, and overall knowledge of event planning. She was easy to communicate with, and would respond quickly and with ease whenever I had a question. She took my wedding needs/wants into consideration and worked so hard to get everything accomplished. Her site visits always went smoothly and she was so organized. She made great recommendations on food options, linens, and lighting options. She truly is great at what she does. On the day of the wedding, everything went according to plan and no issues arose (at least I don't think there were any issues....Aubrey and the staff took care of EVERYTHING that my sole job on that day was to enjoy my wedding with my husband, guests and family). Let's talk about the food! I'm a foodie; I love food and trying out the newest restaurants. So the food and cake options were a big deal to me. The food was delicious and exceeded all my expectations. All my guests raved about how tasty the food was and even went back for seconds! My menu was as follows: Cocktail hour consisted of the goat cheese flatbread, Cuban phyllo cigars, and the corn cakes with mango salsa (talk about yum! These were my favorite and I could not get enough. Thanks for recommending, Aubrey). As for the meal, we had the Chicken piccata, pear and Stilton salad, warm roasted vegetables, carmelized onion mashed potatoes, the pasta bake, fresh fruit assortment, and fresh rolls and bread. All of it was delicious and I loved the way the staff came into the bridal suite and made sure that my groom and I had a snack before entering our reception. So attentive! The fact that my cake was included in the catering package was sweet as well. I ended up going with Somecrust Bakery and the 4-tier cake was beautiful and delicious! I couldn't believe that this cake was included in the packaged deal! Gourmet Gourmet goes above and beyond what other catering companies do. They not only do great catering but excel at event planning. I would definitely recommend them for any future event! Contact them...you won't regret it! read more

We recently used Gourmet Gourmet for my daughter's long-awaited wedding reception. We had to postpone the reception twice and our first caterer went out of business. So, we had to scramble to find another caterer in time for the event. I contacted Mark at Gourmet Gourmet and he was VERY helpful from the very beginning. Their menu is extensive and he was completely flexible with the food we wanted to select. They also handled all of the table settings, helping us with small details such as serving the cake, having water at the tables and picking the color of the napkins. On the day of the event, they were organized, set-up and ready to roll. They served the appetizers and then were ready for the buffet. The food was great, and we received MANY compliments from our guests. So - definitely recommend and would definitely use again. Thanks to Mark and his great staff! read more

The best decision I made for my wedding was choosing a venue that worked with Gourmet Gourmet Catering! This team is so much more than your traditional catering company - Aubrey helped me conceptualize, design, and plan my wedding day (and welcome party). She was a masterful wedding coordinator and caterer all in one! Made my life so easy. Aubrey's ability to stay calm, organized and be a joy to work with through countless emails, phone calls, changing of plans etc was remarkable. She (and Mark!) went above and beyond to make our welcome party and big day flawless, and bring to life my very particular vision! She also managed to run an incredibly smooth timeline for the evening -- I've had so many guests comment on how organized the reception seemed, and that's ALL Aubrey. The band sent me a note saying, "The group felt like the overall flow of the night made for such a perfect evening." It wouldn't have been possible without Aubrey. read more

Gourmet Gourmet made our wedding a perfect and unforgettable experience. From the initial communication with Kai to the catering team the day of our wedding, everything was absolutely phenomenal. Kai helped us problem solve and put our minds at ease on the planning side of things, he really helped to lower our stress levels at a very stressful time in our lives. We appreciated his clear, positive communication and he made us so excited to plan our our menu. When the big day came, the catering team worked seamlessly and so professionally. After the ceremony and during cocktail hour, they even brought us the hors d'oeuvres in the room while we were taking a break from the wedding chaos. It was such a thoughtful gesture and we appreciated it SO much! The food was also PHENOMENAL. Everything was absolutely delicious, and all of our guests talked about how great everything tasted. I will recommend Gourmet Gourmet to anyone for any event; their service, quality, and professionalism are incredible! Thank you so much to Kai and the team for making our special day so unforgettable. read more

As a wedding planner with many years of experience, I give my highest recommendation to Kai, his staff, and Gourmet Gourmet. Outstanding service from the day my client booked GG to the end of a perfectly executed wedding and reception. Kai truely makes it his mission for his couples to have the perfect day. Throughout the planning Kai always responded promptly and was able to accommodate most of our requests. Kai's eye to detail was a blessing. The crushed velvet table linens truely made the reception sparkle. The personal touches Kai brings to enhance the guests experience really shine. We received so many compliments on the food and service. I can't say enough good things here. If professionalism, responsive vendors, organized staff and outstanding event execution are top of your list; I strongly recommend Gourmet Gourmet and Kai McCall specifically. They are now one of my top recommendations to new clients. read more

We had the pleasure of working with Vanessa and Gourmet Gourmet Catering for our October 2017 wedding at the Rancho Santa Ana Botanic Garden in Claremont. When selecting our venue in the preceding March, we immediately appreciated Vanessa's calm and thorough manner as she provided a detailed overview (but not a high-pressure hard sell) of what her catering services would involve. The lovely venue itself, ability to customize, and pricing (inclusive of the cake, ceremony and centerpiece flowers, linens, etc.) quickly won us over. In the ensuing seven months up to our wedding, we found Vanessa to be very responsive, informative, and cheerful with our questions and ideas for our ceremony and reception. On event-day, she implemented even our little details, and from much experience, had the catering fully under control. We suggest that the add-on for the day-of coordinator for the ceremony should not be seen as optional. We were grateful that we used Vanessa's vendor, Angie, as we're not sure how we would have otherwise managed the ceremony schedule. Vanessa could also have filled us in a bit more in advance on the botanic garden staff and the excellent job they would do shuttling the guests on the tram; we thought that there were some gaps in logistics that turned out to be more than covered. Altogether, we had a most positive experience with Vanessa, and highly recommend her and the Gourmet Gourmet crew. read more

We can't say enough about the whole experience from start to finish. read more

How do I get my name back when they destroyed it Years later I still have people who comment on the fact I ran out of food at my daughters wedding. It happened again last night Years later I still have friends talk about running out of food I worked at midnight mission this week and they didn't run out of food read more

Gourmet Gourmet & it's owner Mark are the best! I have used them over the years for business catering, as well as personal catering, and also for rentals, etc. Their service is bar-none. They make everything happen, and I never have a problem or issue with them, they are the most professional and perfectly executed event staff company ever. Their food is also aaahhhmmmmaaaaaazing. Their chef, Alex, is so incredibly talented and his food never disappoints. The one thing I truly appreciate about their service is their ability to handle larger crowds and venues. I work at a college campus/business campus setting, and they are able to manage larger size venues and do it with professionalism and a courteous, friendly staff. You will most likely NEVER be sorry if you hire them for your event, I highly recommend them. read more
