April 13, 2026 UPDATE: This is the second time we've worked with Chef Scott of Silver Spoons…read moreCatering, and the second time he's earned a glowing review. Spoiler alert: the man is the consummate professional. The level of detail this guy focuses on is insane. The floral decorations on the bar top and the hors d'oeuvre platters come to mind. The whole experience was elevated because of the catering - the food, drinks, service, and presentation created a legit classy atmosphere. I felt like we were at a Hollywood premier reception - very fancy. I almost forgot to talk about the food itself lol! The reason we chose Scott in the first place was because we loved his dishes. We were impressed with the tasting menu meeting and selected our menu. When the day came...everything was so delicious! Here's the real proof. As hosts, we rarely get to eat much of the food at the event itself. We are too busy entertaining and talking with visiting family. THANK GOD they send the leftovers home with us! Let me tell you...working our way through the leftovers...was like...reading a love letter. Every dish was so good, so carefully and lovingly made, with only quality ingredients. The quality and care invested in each dish was literally palatable in every bite. The wait staff was professional and friendly. Scott himself was present and supervising everything. Timing of all services was perfect. Everything was perfect. No issues whatsoever, only love and praise, well deserved. Once again, thank you dearly, Chef Scott! Wishing you much continued success! Original review, posted Dec 13, 2023: We enthusiastically recommend Chef Scott and Silver Spoons Catering. He did our big event and it was close to perfect. The tasting meeting was smooth and fun. The pricing was reasonable. Scott is personable and friendly. The night of the event, again, everything went smoothly. The buffet layouts were good. The bar and wait staff were good. The table settings were fancy and elegant. Everything was timed correctly. And omg the food. My son ate like 6-7 of the tuna tartare's. The salmon teriyaki skewers were my favorite appetizer. But my gosh the chicken was heavenly. All the guests commented on how good the food was. The day after we felt completely satisfied and we couldn't wait to dig into the leftovers. That's a good sign!

Can we talk parm? This weekend's pickleball games wrapped with huge portions of old-school Italian…read morefood at the venerable Maria's Italian Kitchen! Eggplant parm was the order on everyone's lips. And as a respected parm picker -- I was tasked with vetting its worthiness. When asked, "Is the eggplant thinly sliced, crispy, layered, and covered in a rich, savory sauce," the waiter replied, "It's my son's favorite dish." My reputation was on the line I looked at the waiter, he looked at me, and he added, "Even my wife likes it." We took the plunge. The layered stack arrived, bubbling with cheese and red sauce in a hot skillet -- a good sign! Sauce was a 7/10 -- could've used another day on the stove. But If the number of doggy bags that left the restaurant was any indication, parm was a pickleball hit -- and likely on everyone''s dinner plates tonight. Highly recommended.

We've dined at Maria's Italian Kitchen on Ventura Blvd twice. Once with my Dad who took us for…read morelunch on a Sunday afternoon and the other was for a party of 18 people for child's birthday on a Saturday afternoon. Maria's Italian Kitchen is very welcoming and a good size. Plenty of tables and chairs available for seating both inside and outside. They can accommodate a huge party like they did with us. Thank you to their awesome manager Jacob who provided excellent customer care to us on both our visits. Reserving this restaurant with Jacob was easy and very pleasant. We had an excellent experience both times here at Maria's Italian Kitchen. Our first visit we had Denise as our waiter and she was great. Thank you Denise. She made recommendations and was considerate and attentive in regards to food allergies as our child has peanut and tree nut food allergies. She made sure that food items on our menu did not contain peanuts nor tree nuts. For our first visit we ordered Calamari Fritti, Rosemary Bread Basket, Fettuccine Alfredo with Gulf Shrimp, Calamari Fra Diavolo, Chicken Piccata and Cheese Pizza. All our meals were freshly cooked and brought out in a timely manner. Portion sizing was just right. Denise stopped by several times to replenish our water and check on us. For our second dining experience at Maria's Italian Kitchen Jake was our waiter for our child's birthday party on a Saturday afternoon for party of 18 people. Jake was also excellent and attentive to the individuals with food allergies. He made sure that the kitchen was aware and informed us that none of the meals and food items for our party had peanuts, nuts or pesto. Thank you Jake. Our party ordered a variety of meals and food items on the menu. Perfect portion sizing and options. Some of our guests took their food home to go. We had 3 orders of Calamari Fritti, 4 Chicken Piccata, 1 Shrimp Scampi, 1 Large Shrimp Diavolo, 1 Chicken Marsala, 1 medium Cheese Pizza, 1 Large Carbonara, 4 Large Alfredo, 1 Large Alfredo with Shrimp, 2 Kids Cheese Pizza, 1 Honey Chicken with Fries, 4 Basket of Bread, 3 Coke, 1 brownie sundae and bottle of Peroni. We will be back here to dine with other family and friends and to book another birthday with Jacob in a few months. Thank you again Jacob, Jake and Denise for the delicious meals and excellent customer service.

My wife and I attended a friend's birthday party where Chef Ray handled the catering, and the food was truly outstanding. Having spent 22 years in the food service industry myself, I'm not easily impressed--but the presentation, flavors, and overall execution were exceptional. Every item was fantastic. The bruschetta with goat cream cheese was fresh and perfectly balanced. The seared ahi tuna bites were beautifully prepared, and the shrimp spring rolls with ginger peanut sauce were bursting with flavor. Even the flatbread pizza with Caesar salad was spot-on. One great dish after another--we were honestly stuffed by the end of the night. What stood out most was the attention to detail and restaurant-quality presentation, something you rarely see at private catered events. Chef Ray clearly takes pride in his craft, and it shows in every bite. We're already looking forward to the next event he caters at our friend's house--and we'll definitely be using Chef 805 Catering for one of our own parties in the future. -- Anil
