Chef Ed is awesome. Super easy to work with and customized to meet our budget and vision. For was ono and exceeded my expectations

Chef Ed was easy to work with and works with the budget you have. Our event had more than enough food for the amount of people we expected. The food was fresh and absolutely delicious! We opted to not order the bacon kabayaki, and now I feel the need to attend another event just to try it. Oh, lucky us, we have another upcoming event that will have kabayaki bacon which I may get a taste of it. If you have a private event plan ahead, as Chef Ed books out weeks ahead, he's in demand! read more

I am so beyond happy that Chef Ed was my food vendor for my wedding. Everything was absolutely delicious. Being from NYC, I do feel like my standards for food are very high, and Chef Ed met our expectations. We have guests that LOVE to eat and everything was more than enough. He worked well with me on a budget, was very communicative with me, and supported my vision from the beginning. He was okay with any changes I asked for and had given me options for my vegan/gluten free friends as well! Our Italian/local fusion was incredible. Everyone raved about the food even for days after! I am waiting for another opportunity that I can work with Chef Ed in the future. He has gained a local client for life! read more

5 Stars plus! If you're not a fan of long reviews, please stop reading and just book Kuoha Culinary right away...there are so many wonderful things to say here. We selected Kuoha Culinary for a small family Celebration of Life for our dad. Chef Ed is so kind and easy to work with. He's busy and he secured our date upon initial communication and assured me he'd provide a preliminary proposal within a few weeks. Here's how I described our catering goals for Ed: Hoping for a fusion of local style comfort foods in an elevated style, fine restaurant quality but "not overly fancy" with several protein options and several veggie options. 2 vegetarian guests, not sure if we need dessert catered. Having never booked catering before, I based our budget on previous restaurant celebrations and gave Ed a very, very wide price per head range and told him I'd prefer if we didn't get too close to the higher end of our price range. As promised, Ed returned with a preliminary proposal and it was lower in price than I expected and included more dishes than I had thought we'd get. Ed recommended drop off service as being the most cost effective and easy option for our event. I requested changes to all three entrees and added a few vegetables and the price remained excellent due to my changes balancing each other out. In our phone consultation, Ed answered my questions clearly, concisely, and confidently. For each case where I asked Ed which of 2 or 3 dishes he recommended, he was able to understand my question and kindly offer his recommendation and he was spot on. Never once did he say the dreaded "it's a matter of personal preference". He just knew what would work best and humbly shared his knowledge and experience. I told Ed my mom doesn't really eat Lup Cheong and he said, trust me she won't notice it and it adds so much to the dish ("Local Boy" En Papillote). Sure enough, mama raved about the fish. I asked him a question about 2 different beef dishes and he explained why the dish he recommended was a better fit for drop off catering. I debated to myself about going with Ed's desserts or getting/making our own, I'm not a big dessert person. Ended up going with Ed and requested an assortment of 3 desserts rather than one, great decision because Ed's desserts were a hit. I was so impressed with my initial interactions with Ed that I was referring people to Kuoha Culinary before I even tasted the food! Fast forward to event date: Ed arrived 15 min ahead of his proposed arrival time. He texted my contact friend and me of his ETA. He politely declined our guests' offers of help and he got everything set up beautifully! Received the most compliments ever on our food! We've had many get togethers with the same people and this food experience surpassed those at previous restaurants and event venues, even the fancy ones. Guests were exclaiming raving about the quality and variety (not exaggerating) complimenting every single dish from appetizers to main dishes to veggies, to the rice to the desserts! Yes, even the humble corn and Hapa rice got rave reviews...seriously! People were scanning chef's QR code and reading aloud about the business at the table (a first) and were so grateful and genuinely wowed. The dishes that were most complimented were the Local Boy Fish En Papillote, Ahi Tataki and the mini tart desserts: Lilikoi Crème Brûlée, Ube Cream, Chef Ed's Chocolate with Haupia The quality was better than the type of restaurant where they give you a deck of cards-sized protein on a plate, with quantity being better than places where you need 2 hands to carry your plate lunch. Best combination ever! Our guests made generous plates to go. I even scraped the sauces into ziplocs to freeze for helping with my own cooking. Hours after the meal and into the next day, people were saying how much they enjoyed everything. The next day, my cousin expressed for the second time how impressed he was with Ed's ability to keep all food at the perfect temperature, texture and consistency. Kuoha Culinary surpassed our goals going beyond merely "impressing" our guests and achieved something even more meaningful: Our guests felt honored, grateful, and joyful. Thank you, Chef Ed, for helping make our celebration so special! read more

We had Chef Ed cater my husbands 60th Birthday party and he was wonderful. Although everything was super ono, my favorite dish was the Ahi Tataki. My husbands favorite food is hot dogs and Chef Ed was able to elevate that to the next level and it was a big hit not only with my husband but with the guests! Who knew hotdogs could be such a fun dish. He is a genius at his craft and a pleasure to work with. read more

I met Kuoha Culinary some years back when I used him for a UYE to welcome one of our international Yelp friends and former CM. They are steady in their food preparation and the deliverance and presentation is above par. Sadly, I don't have any pictures of the delicious display of his creations but suffice to say, the taste was great, the meats were prepared to perfection and the sauces which accompanied the entrees were very delicious as well. I was a guest at a year end company party and didn't want to hold up the line by taking pictures So reader! Use your imagination to a nice display of prime rib, sliced for individual service, 14/20 shrimp scampi style, roast chicken with a sweet hoisin sauce, truffle deviled egg appetizer, hamachi carpaccio and much more. If you are ever in need of a caterer, Kuoha is the one to contact! read more

Kuoha catered a not for profit fundraiser in Manoa on Feb 22. Food was plentiful and delicious: bacon kabayaki, meatballs, shoyu chicken, stir fried noodles, veg platter with creamy garlic sauce, poke bowl and creamy dessert. Wonderful flavors and attractive presentation. read more

Sarah is the ultimate "best-est" bartender. Very experienced and great service and her signature cocktails were a hit at my FriendsGiving house party. She took care of every details and was excellent with her prep work, she made my bar look festive and she never nickled and dimed me with every little thing that she graciously provided on her own. Very professional, awesome attitude and very reasonable! My guests loved her! I'd definitely hire them again! read more

I learned about Chef Ed thru a local Facebook group, and having him and his team cater our wedding was one of the best decisions we've made. He worked with our budget and created an amazing menu that included 5 different dishes plus 2 different appetizers. He also supplemented vegan food for some of our guests. Communication was very good throughout the entire planning process. Our guests could not stop raving about the food at our wedding and my husband and I loved every single dish he made. We wish we had more. 10/10 highly recommended read more

We hired Chef Ed for my mother-in-law's birthday party, and it was fantastic. He worked with us to design a menu, accommodated our (many) requests, and dropped off the food on time, even helping to set up the outdoor buffet. I loved that he brought little cards to describe the food too! BTW, we really loved the drop off option, it was the right level of casual that we were looking for. And omg, was the food ever good! We got so many compliments (and unjustly felt like heroes, when Chef Ed did all the work) from our guests on how much they loved all the items. EVERYTHING was fantastic. We had the bruschetta, mashed potatoes (which were more of a potato puree, sooooo good!), roasted corn, roasted asparagus, roasted striploin (my personal fave!), cauliflower steaks, and fish (second fave!). Chef Ed also did little individual desserts, we had a chocolate peanut butter mousse, and a creme brulee tart. All for what was a very reasonable price when compared to our eat-out options. Top-tier restaurant food that we enjoyed in casual clothes at a reasonable price? We'll definitely be calling him up again. The only downside (if you can call it that) is that he's so great he does get booked up early. Fortunately for us, we started planning early. Chef Ed was very responsive and very patient with us too. Thanks again! read more

Chef Ed was amazing! He communicated right away with calls and emails, arrived on time, and set out a very delicious and impressive meal. His ingredients were very high quality and beauifully presented. Everyone present loved his food. We highly recommend him for any event you are hosting. read more

Kuoha Culinary - Wedding Reception Menu - Caterers Near Me

Amazing service, delicious food and incredible communication!! I cannot highlight Ed enough! We met up with Ed for a sampling of his work, all of it was delicious and I HIGHLY recommend his kabayaki bacon (candied bacon)! Then he put together a proposal for our event and we paid our deposit. Ed was quick to respond every time, jumped on a call with us to answer all of our questions, and extremely flexible with our menu. Long story short, we had to move our event and he was very accommodating and let us transfer our deposit to a different event. This meant so much to us and we have a lot of appreciation for Ed that he let us do this! The event (our engagement party) was successful and a HUGE highlight of the night was Kuoha Culinary. We went with his upscale catering option where he drops off the food with warmers, fancy disposable plates and utensils, and everything worked out great! Guests told us several times how good the food was and we even got to enjoy it a few more days because we had a lot of leftovers. We plan to continue to go to Ed for any large party catering needs in the future. I hope you know how much we appreciate you Ed! Thank you for helping us to plan and celebrate our engagement. read more

Since COVID, I imagine many people have gone without celebrations, family gatherings and a variety of social engagements, we were shut down by an invisible terrorist, telling us to mask up, glove up and its need to "flatten the curve". We have been forced to think outside of our routine boxes; however, as human beings, we require the social aspects of our lives, it helps us to manifest feelings of love and being a part of a community. I say this because my daughter was turning 35 and watched her work so hard, her company closed down, she was was pregnant, struggled in silence, had her baby in a hospital where we couldn't be there with her and do her best for her children every single day, despite the significant life changes. Anyways, I dont mean to go on and on, long story short, we wanted to give her something special this year, as she embarked on 35, quite a milestone age. In comes Chef Ed Kuoha, I found him here on Yelp. The idea of bringing a fine dining experience to my home, im sure im not the first to think of it, what a great idea. I reached out and he returned my message, very clear and available. He asked about our dietary restrictions and immediately came up with a solid menu plan. Unfortunately, he ended up not being able to do the party for unforeseen circumstances and notified me 2 days before the dinner. I was a bit nervous, not gonna lie. Everything was scheduled and set up, I know it was a family dinner at my home and Chef Ed was super generous to reschedule, but it would be too much of a hassle. I started to search for another replacement, I was not very hopeful since we are now down to one day before the party and still no replacement. Chef Ed texted me and said he found another Chef!! He worked so hard to accommodate, despite the crisis he faced himself. He put my situation my ahead of his own and I cannot possibly express adequate appreciation for this. Now the food, we were literally paralyzed with satisfaction. The menu offered was not only exquisite flavors, but paired with excellence to accommodate our very different dietary needs. I will leave a brief description of the food items with their pictures. Lastly, we also want to thank Chef Ed for sending Jacob to service our dinner. He was the icing on the cake, such a humble and respectful young man, who truly enhanced our dining experience. He was efficient and he left my home cleaner than it was before he arrived. Thank you for Chef Ed for creating a memory that will place a shining bright star on our dim memory of these difficult times. I strongly recommend you to everyone I know and will be coming back to you for future events. Your business will definitely thrive with impeccable service that you provide!! read more

Chef Ed catering is top tier! We had him cater for around 20 headcount for our post wedding ceremony. We were unsure of exactly what we wanted but provided a few ideas. He quickly made a menu for us that worked perfectly fine for us. Everyone couldn't stop talking about how everything was so delicious. He was so easy to communicate with and responded so fast through email or text. Will def recommend Chef Ed for any event. He was on time for the drop off catering as well and even set up all the food himself with beautiful food tags. He works with your budget and provides excellent quality food and service. Thank you Kuoaha Culinary, you've made my experience in Hawaii so much better. read more

I had Kuoha Culinary for my private ceremony dinner (seafood & prime rib) and the next day he was my caterer for my reception dinner (local food). Chef Ed and his team are very professional, punctual, and the food was ONO. My family and guests kept telling me how good the food was. If I had a change in the menu or question about the set-up, I felt comfortable to call him and he'd explain everything in detail. I highly recommend to use him for your next party or up scale event! read more

We hired Ed for our recent wedding and were extremely pleased with his food quality and level of service. He truly takes pride in his work and is fantastic with communication! We got blessed in being able to get not only a tasting from Ed in the early stages of planning, but again at my now-husbands holiday party at which they happened to hire Kuoha Culinary! When I say Ed's food is BOMB, I really mean BOMB. One compliment we received most post-wedding was how much everyone loved the food. Chef Ed was always so quick to respond whether via text or email and never hesitated to answer any questions I had. You can tell how much experience he has in this business with the confidence he gives in his replies. Whenever I had a special request, each time, Chef Ed was extremely gracious and accommodating. I felt bad throwing in a few extra things here and there up to a few weeks before the event and would understand if a vendor got irritated with me but if he did, it never showed. If we have any future events to host, we're definitely coming back to Kuoha Culinary for a catering order. Thank you for all that you've done for us, Ed! read more

Chef Ed catered a ceremony this past Friday. Maybe around 200 guests or so. Every single one of them had rave reviews of the food. His staff was also top notch. Would definitely call him again. read more

There's a reason why Chef Ed and his team at Kuoha Culinary have 5 stars all across the boards! From Yelp to wedding websites--they are well deserving of 10 stars!!! We've contacted several other caterers, but none were close in comparison to Chef Ed! He was patient and was kindly willing to work with us and tailor the menu to our needs! We let him know our budget & he really tries his best to stick with it too! We're so grateful! He even met with us to sample our food on our menu! The food is AMAZING!! We paired his food with some of our own & it was matches made in heaven!! From Kuoha, we had the braised pork with daikon&ginger, smoky soy glazed chicken and asst. roasted veggies w/an awesome decadent bagna cauda sauce!! SO delicious and soo satisfying! All of our guests were so pleased! Chef Ed's setup and cutlery are definitely upscale and a lot of people didn't even know they were disposable! Kuoha Culinary made our wedding day that much more memorable and a tasty memory! Catering is more than just ordering off a menu, having it dropped off or picking it up.. it's about ones personable stature&their kindness they bestow on others--it's about creating remarkable memories together. We're definitely contacting Kuoha Culinary many more times for our future events!! Thank you so much!! Xoxo read more

Kuoha Culinary - THANK YOU CHEF ED and KUOHA CULINARY! Much LOVE & ALOHA! - Caterers Near Me

We used Kuoha Cullinary for a multicultural wedding and without question Ed exceeded all expectations. We had three professionally support dining event over the course of three days and Ed's catering was the benchmark in excellence that everyone referred to as the best food they had during their stay in Hawaii. We used Ed for drop off service buffet in a private roof top venue in Waikiki for 30 guest and it was flawless. The food was exceptionally high quality and the amount proved resulted in enough to feed everyone lunch again the next day (just as good the second time around). Beyond taste and quality, the set-up and presentation was just as wonderful. We shopped multiple caterers and was easily the most competitive in his pricing. I highly recommend using Ed and his team!! read more

You must book Chef Ed & his team immediately. I had ZERO clue what I was doing when I started planning our DIY wedding, & it was important to me that the food be ono. We were hosting a dinner party for our friends, but surprised them in between pupus and dinner by eloping! I have never hired a private chef before & knew nothing about what to expect, how the process works, etc. Chef Ed was super responsive, and spot on with all his recommendations. We were so clueless that when it came to menu we asked him for suggestions. We made some super small tweaks based on our own tastes, but the food was delicious! Since I didn't know what I was doing, he was great in walking me through the options of how decisions would impact price. We had passed pupus for a cocktail hour. We ended up doing a family style service (not plated), and he saved me a TON of money by suggesting that I rent a table and table cloth to serve as the bar then man it with one of his staff. The food. Wow. It deserves a post of its own. I was VERY nervous about whether the food would taste good, be warm etc since it was service for about 13 people. The food was spectacular. Seriously better than many fancy restaurants in town. His passed pupus were sooo amazing - with the biggest surprise for me being how much I loved the Kabayaki Bacon! WOW - add that to your list of pupus when you work with him. His team came early enough to set everything up, and brought all they needed. When they left they didn't even leave a trace of having turned the house kitchen into a restaurant kitchen! Except for the leftovers they put in the fridge for us :) Those were gone by morning btw. There are a lot of things I loved about Chef Ed. At the time he was participating in a charity drive, and offered a discount to customers who donated to his fundraising campaign (which is tax deductible btw). The fact that he is willing to give away part of his excellent services in order to make his community better tells you a lot about him. The staff that he brought that night were top notch. They were VERY friendly, easy going as the needs of the evening flexed and just wonderful people! I loved talking with them. I wish I had more pix of his wonderful culinary delights. It was delicious. I can't thank him enough for making this surprise elopement so successful! read more

I would give 10 stars and more if I could to Kuoha Culinary! This is my 3rd time using Chef Ed's services and he never disappoints! His food is amazing and delicious! If you don't know where to start, he'll send you a sample menu based on your budget and is always accommodating to any changes or dietary restrictions your party might have. We were celebrating my daughter's college graduation party with approximately 50 people. We had more than enough food and extra for everyone to take home! Everything from the kalbi, to the melt in your mouth roast pork, to the ahi tataki, Chef Ed's signature dish, to the sautéed sweet corn with truffle butter, and the salad, sweet rolls with guava butter and the roasted vegetables was all amazingly delicious!! And then the desserts!! Chef Ed's mini chocolate Haupia tarts and the Big Island honey coconut milk panna cotta! If you're looking for a caterer, look no further! Kuoha Culinary is the best! He provides everything you need for your party to be a success! He sets up all the food, provides all the plates, forks and napkins! Thanks Chef Ed for helping me give my daughter a great party with happy guests!! read more

I would highly recommend chef Ed. He was very accommodating and built an amazing menu for my family and I. Everything was so good. It's hard to pick my favorite from the menu but I would say the fish dish and the chicken was top two. Chef Ed was very respectful to the space and cleaned out everything after we finished. It was so clean that you wouldn't even know we had a 10 person party. read more

Everyone was so pleased and there were tasty leftovers for the next day. I would recommend Chef Ed for any private event! read more

Had such an awesome experience working with Chef Ed yesterday at small VIP event (8 guests). Food presentation is absolutely gorgeous, very fresh and tasty. He is very thorough with on-site setup, in constant clear communication during service, keeping the prep area/kitchen very clean and tidy while he was there. Chef Ed is a true professional, organized, accommodating, happy and humble. His food and service speak volumes of his expertise gained through working many years in culinary. Will definitely book him again for our next event and refer to all. Thank you Chef Ed!! read more

Let me start off by saying my husband and I are very picky when it comes to food. We were a little nervous hiring a private chef to cook for our gathering based solely on yelp reviews and not having a set menu to choose from. Chef Ed gives you recommendations based on your food preference and budget. Chef Ed was quick to respond and was communicative throughout the entire process. He arrived to our event on time and headed straight to the kitchen without me even knowing (I was busy getting ready). He was very professional in his presentation, had an explanation for each dish, and gave everyone a menu. Service was excellent! It was as if we were eating at a fine dining restaurant but in a comfortable atmosphere. Every single dish was so delicious and we all couldn't stop thinking about his food for days! If we could only pick three of our favorites it would be the Kabayaki Bacon, Ahi Tataki, and the Lilikoi Crème Brulee Tarts. He provided us with more than enough food; we were full before the entrees came out and there were tons of leftovers to enjoy the next day. Don't even question it, hire Chef Ed for your next gathering and you won't regret it! Bonus- it was also nice to support a fellow Native Hawaiian owned company. read more

I cannot recommend Chef Ed enough. We had a nontraditional wedding in a campground on the North Shore for a bunch of people with dietary restrictions - Chef Ed worked with us closely to create an incredible dinner and breakfast from scratch that catered to everyone. He drove it out and set everything up by himself in the evening and the next morning so we didn't have to worry about anything. The food was INCREDIBLE, several of our guests said it was the best wedding food they had ever had. IN A FRIGGIN CAMPGROUND. The cost was very reasonable, I would have happily paid twice as much for service and quality food this good. Ten stars! read more

We worked with Kuoha catering for our 40 person wedding in July, and couldn't have been happier with them! Chef Ed was so responsive during our long planning process throughout CoVid, and was flexible when we had to reschedule last minute. The food was truly one of the highlights of our wedding, the staff was so kind throughout the event, and our guests still talk about how much they enjoyed it. He really worked with us to stay in budget and create the perfect menu, and we had lots of leftovers the next day. I'm still dreaming about the Ahi "Haulalapa" dish that we had at cocktail hour! I would highly recommend them for any event! read more

Everyone raved about it. My guests loved it so much we ate almost the entire helping, including the extra food that Ed had made. We had chosen a garden salad, sweet corn, mixed veggies, garlic mashed potatoes, chicken cordon bleu, steak and fish. Many of my guests came up to me afterwards and said that's the best food they have ever had. As the food was done, Ed cleaned up everything and left the kitchen spotless. We had a quick chat before he left and got nothing but positive vibes back. Thank you to Ed and his team for everything!! If you are looking for a caterer, Kuoha Culinary Team is the one!!

Chef Ed was recommended to me through my wedding company's concierge service. We came to Hawaii for a destination wedding with a small group of 10. All of the communication about our wedding menu was done through email and I did not encounter any issues. Ed offered great suggestions, accommodated my husband's dietary restrictions and was super prompt with his responses. He came to our rental home in Kailua and cooked an amazing "family style" dinner on our wedding night. The food was incredible! Everyone in the party was super impressed; which says a lot because my in laws typically love to complain when it comes food. Ed even made my husband individual special dessert because he couldn't eat the wedding cake. When the dinner was over, Ed left our space cleaner than when he arrived. Thank you so much for making our night so great! Vanessa and Cody read more
