    Delicious food and wonderful experience!! Carol was very responsive through email and Chef Ben and his team (2 girls) were fantastic! I got the 2 paella + appetizers package for our intimate vow renewal and they did such a great job. My kitchen space is pretty small and open, but they were still able to accommodate and respected my requests. The appetizers were so delicious and everything was prepped on time. Everyone was entertained by Chef Ben's cooking - my mom couldn't stop watching! They even cleaned up after which was nice! Definitely recommend for any gathering!

    Chef Ben and LA Paella is a fantastic option for groups and party events. They are very professional, and the paella is "top-quality," from locally organic producers. Excellent service and would highly recommend this company!

    The best paella our family has tasted! The entire experience is one that you will remember and is like nothing else. Ben is an amazing chef and he comes in prepared and very friendly. His wife is the best communicator and books the event. He arrived on time and will ask where he should set-up. He even serves your guest either at the table or you come to the area to be served, amazing!! It's a phenomenal service. We had a smaller gathering for my mothers-in-laws 74th birthday. She and everyone in the group enjoyed seeing Ben cook the paella and explain the process. It was really nice to bring the Spanish culture and other cultures that contributed to this dish. It was like traveling to other areas of the world in your own home! Plus it felt like a cooking course and full meal all in one. We enjoyed having the food prepared in front of us, it was so authentic and it smelled so good as it was cooking!!! All the ingredients are fresh and the end product was sooooo good. We had the mixed paella, which included pork, chicken leg, pork sausage, and all types of seafood. Delisioso!! We can't wait to book our next event! We are doing Pig and Paella night soon! Lechon and paella served at our home next! Book them, they are just amazing all around you won't be disappointed! Also, everything is done safely and we observe social distancing with this experience.

    I hired La Paella for my husband's 50th and they did an awesome job. My friends and I had so much fun with Eric and Donna. Eric and Donna were organized, professional, and helpful, from the prepping to finishing. I ordered the longoustine tail, Ahi Ceviche, spinach croquettes, tortilla espanola. Donna made the appetizers fresh on site and they were perfectly made. We couldn't get enough of them. As for the Paella, I ordered the vegan and regular. Eric cooked the paella perfectly from top to bottom. We all know paella has to be cooked even from top to bottom and he did that. The smell and the ambiance felt we were in Barcelona eating an authentic Spanish paella. Thank you Eric and Donna for a perfect fun evening!

    The Paella was excellent and a true reflection of Ben's passion for flavor and attention to detail. It was a true experience to watch Ben prepare Paella for our smaller intimate family dinner party. It was one of the more memorable events my family has had together! Thank you guys!

    We hired LA Paella for our Hanukkah gathering. Very professional, educational, great staff but the most important thing, the paella was EXCELLENT!!! Very flavorful and cooked to perfection. All my guests raves about the experience and the quality of the food. We definitely recommend LA Paella and would hire them again without hesitation

    Easily the best Paella I've ever had. Chef Ben was just so knowledgeable and professional. His service and his love for food is really what we admired most. Not only that he was so helpful and letting us know his process. I would highly recommend this company and we are for sure using them in the future.

    We used LA Paella for our brand's launch dinner for about 50 people and everyone was so impressed! Amazing appetizers and main course, accommodating and professional servers and chef, and beautiful set up along with studio lighting. Definitely recommend them for an interesting and fun element at your event!

M Sushi truly came through for us. Vivian was in constant communication with me throughout the entire process and made multiple changes until we were completely happy with the order. She was incredibly understanding, patient, and accommodating, which made everything so much less stressful. They even put together a thoughtful, well-curated menu that accommodated guests that preferred cooked rolls . The setup was seamless. The chefs arrived a few hours before serving time and had cut rolls, nigiri, and sashimi ready by 5:30 . Both chefs were attentive, kind, and very accommodating during the event. Our guests especially loved the specials--the halibut carpaccio and yellowtail picante were a huge hit, and the bay scallops were absolutely wonderful. Overall, everything went so well, and the addition of the halibut and sashimi really elevated the experience. They helped make such a special milestone celebration memorable for our entire family. We look forward to doing business with them again in the near future!

The restaurant itself has plenty of indoor seating and some outdoor options as well. I was particularly impressed by the menu, which has plenty of options for vegetarians and vegan diets and a great selection of salads. My husband ordered the breakfast with pancakes and it was delicious! I wouldn't necessarily call it the friendliest service I've experienced, but the food is excellent. If you find yourself in the area, I would definitely recommend that you stop by and try some of their tasty food.

Even when there's other tables around, even when it's one minute before closing time. I don't think he understands how restaurants work. He will tell you not to go inside because the place is closed, even though you're just trying to get napkins to pack your food. I've witnessed him being rude to multiple other customers, he will rip the salt off your table, will start slamming chairs around you and give you a death stare! And even though I brought it up to the manager and to other employees, nothing has been done and he still works there. He absolutely ruined this place for me that I used to patron for over a decade. Awful move! And even worse to ignore that this is happening when you've been told multiple times. The other employees are cool, the food is decent, and the manager I thought was awesome, but they are completely ignoring this issue and it needs to be addressed . That guy needs to go! They will lose more patronage.

I called around 4 PM to place a cookie order and spoke with Ashley. I was immediately told that all cookie orders require 48-hour notice--without being asked how many cookies I needed or any details about the order. I even clarified that I was only looking for one dozen original cookies and one dozen milk chocolate, and she reiterated that all cookie orders require 48-hour notice. What was most frustrating wasn't even the policy--it was the lack of basic customer service. There were no follow-up questions, no attempt to offer alternatives, and no effort to see if anything could be accommodated for the next day. The conversation felt very one-sided and dismissive. I've ordered from other Bristol Farms locations throughout Southern California and have not encountered such a rigid, across-the-board policy, which made this experience even more surprising. I ended up placing the order elsewhere, and my group was very happy with that decision for several reasons, including the overall service experience. At a minimum, I would expect staff to: * Ask a few clarifying questions before declining a request * Offer alternatives or solutions when possible * Communicate policies in a more customer-friendly way Unfortunately, this isn't the first time I've experienced slow or inconsistent service at this particular counter, which makes it harder to rely on. I would also be interested to understand what measures are in place to ensure team members are trained and supported to deliver a customer-focused experience that helps grow the business, rather than turning away reasonable requests.
