The Rugged Coffee setup at an event

I had Rugged Coffee again at a friend's event in the OC and it was sensational! Everyone was talking about how good it was and multiple people went up for seconds or thirds. I'm not a huge coffee person but I tried the Iced Matcha and it was great. He was also there at their wedding and it was a five-star experience for everyone back then as well!

Menu - Rugged Coffee

Had a wonderful experience with Rugged Coffee during a Nike event I attended at The Point in El Segundo. The employees were so kind and the menu/coffee offerings was extensive! Of course I had to order the Lavender Honey latte and it did not disappoint. I loved, loved, loved the finishing Nike Swoosh touch on the latte - so great! I hope to attend many more events with Rugged Coffee and maybe someday I will even host an event of my own. One thing is for sure - I would highly recommend Rugged Coffee!

Had the pleasure of trying Rugged Coffee through a Nike event and want to say there customer service was exceptional and overall the service to their client was amazing. Had the opportunity to try their Matcha Latte and Hot Chocolate. If you have the opportunity to book them for your event I definitely recommend these two. Book and Support.

Are the syrups for the drinks made by Rugged Coffee or by another company?

We handmake all of the syrups that we use in our drinks, and we are even able to make custom flavors for our clients, as well.

Recently got to try out Prepped With Love at a friend's birthday…read more There was a wide variety of different entrees and appetizers. Everything was so tasty and delicious. We really enjoyed the garlic noodles, musubi, toasts, short ribs, and veggies. I personally enjoyed the food so much that I stopped by lunch service. Picked up a Philly Melt, Salmon Soba Noodle Salad, and Vietnamese Coffee cookie. The food was made to order. It was prepared hot and fresh. The salmon had such good flavor. Unfortunately, they forgot to pack the dressing for the soba noodles so I didn't get to enjoy it fully. Nonetheless, the Philly Melt was very savory and so good with the grilled onions. Cookie was also tasty and has a nice chew. Overall enjoyed Chef Carol's food and excited to come back for lunch service.

We hired this caterer for our child's birthday party and she absolutely knocked it out of the park!…read moreThe mac & cheese was creamy and delicious -- i think because she hand grates fresh cheese. The chicken fingers were crispy perfection, and the summer rolls were a hit with adults and little ones alike (individually wrapped to not dry out), and the charcuterie and fruit platters looked absolutely stunning. Everything was fresh, beautifully presented, and people took leftovers home. Parents were coming up to us asking who catered the event. If you're looking for someone who can feed a crowd of kids AND impress the grown-ups at the same time, look no further. We'll 100% be booking her again!

This spot is located in a small plaza so parking is limited. I ordered the 15 piece combo with the five shrimp and pork egg rolls and the 10 bahn khot with the shrimp and pork. They came in a pizza box with the fresh vegetables and a separate bag, the sauce and a separate container in the pickled veggies in another bag and oh my God I've never had anything like this before The banh khot has a very nice custody texture on the inside and the outside is perfectly fried. I want to say they use some kind of a coconut oil which makes it so delectably crispy. Unlike anything I've ever had even though these things are fried it's just absolutely phenomenal the way they do it here. It is a mom and Pop shop so you know it's good and believe me it was 1 million out of 10. I would definitely come back again.

Small like shop that basically only makes banh knots and eggs rolls…read more Ordered - Shrimp Banh Khots - Edges were really nice and crispy. They were a little bigger and deeper than the ones my mom makes at home so I felt like there was a bit more batter to shrimp ratio. I felt like their shrimp was on the slightly smaller size but I appreciate how if it was a small shrimp, they would give you multiple shrimps. Banh Khots were served with various greens, pickled daikons and carrots, and fish sauce. I appreciated how the daikon and carrots were cut into a thin circle shapes instead of strips because it was nice to just lay the circles on the banh knot. It was a bit of a wait. We got there about 10 minutes they opened on a Friday. We ended up waiting about 40 minutes until our food was ready. It seems like they get a lot of online orders so that contributed to the wait. Would probably recommend ordering online next time. Staff were nice and food came out really hot and fresh so I didn't mind the wait too much. Seating is a bit limited though. They had one table inside and a couple inside.

I booked XeoHello for my tea ceremony luncheon and everyone loved it, even my mom (who always says she can make things better at home haha). Andy was very helpful throughout the whole process. He answered all of my questions and provided details on what the service entails. For about 85 guests, I ordered about 100-110 banh xeos and had many other trays of food. I highly recommend ordering 1.5 banh xeos per expected guest since many people had 2 or more! On the day of, Andy and his crew showed up on time as promised and started making banh xeos at the requested time. The banh xeos came out hot and crispy! They provided all the fixings: lettuce, herbs, carrots/daikon, nuoc mam/fish sauce, and chopsticks. Many of our friends and family raved about how good the banh xeo was! We had a small amount of leftovers, which they packed togo. Andy and his team were amazing! The catering price was reasonable and the food was great. Will definitely hire again in the future!
