I truly cannot say enough good things about Dawn and Party In A Box Catering. They catered both our…read morerehearsal dinner and our wedding dinner, and they were absolutely incredible from start to finish. For our rehearsal dinner, we had an Italian spread, and I am not exaggerating when I say the lasagna was literally the best lasagna I have ever had in my life. I ate the leftovers for an entire week and was genuinely sad when they were gone. For our wedding dinner, we had a taco bar, and it was a dream. The chicken was freaking phenomenal, the food was fresh, flavorful, and exactly what we hoped for. Dawn also made our wedding dessert dreams come to life with an assortment of desserts that were just as beautiful as they were delicious. Beyond the food, their professionalism, presentation, and display were unlike anything I have ever seen. Everything looked amazing, ran smoothly, and felt so thoughtfully done. I genuinely cannot imagine our wedding weekend without them. The only downside is that the food was so good I felt morally obligated to ask Dawn and her team to move into our home, because I'm honestly not sure how I'm supposed to live without their cooking now. We are so grateful for them and would recommend Party In A Box Catering a million times over!

There are not enough complimentary words available to express how I feel about Steve, his staff,…read moreand the wonderful service he provides. If you need someone to flawlessly handle the catering for your event, then Hawaiian Luau OC is for you. I recently lost my wife of 40 years to cancer, and she was a Hawaiian dancer for many years. I thought do hold a luau style celebration of life to honor her endless Aloha Spirit and love of the Hawaiian culture. I did not know where to turn to begin to create a perfect evening to honor my wife, but I was blessed to discover Hawaiian Luau OC. From my first conversation with Steve, I instantly knew that I made the right choice. It was like talking to a friend from the first word, and I could tell he was fully invested in doing everything possible to make this evening memorable in every way. He even offered to prepare samples of his food and bring them to my home for my approval. Who does that anymore?!? On the day of my wife's celebration, Steve and his staff arrived right on time and set up a wonderful Hawaiian style buffet that was beautifully decorated. Every item of food they provided was absolutely delicious and perfectly prepared. I have been receiving compliments for two weeks from my guests saying the smoked pork was, "the best I've ever had" and the teriyaki chicken was so tender that it was like, "the filet mignon of chicken." Absolutely incredible food from the appetizers to the desserts. Now that the event has passed, I am actually kind of sad that I no longer get to work with Steve, because the experience was that enjoyable in every way. If you have an upcoming event, I hope you will consider Hawaiian Luau OC, because you will walk away with total satisfaction and a big smile on your face.

How can a caterer be over 2 hours late?! We were appalled. Our holiday luncheon was ruined…read more Everyone was upset and starving. Our huge mistake was paying her in full weeks before. That is an unbelievable amount of time to wait. In addition, she did not give us everything we ordered. She ended up substituting some of the items. It was so very sad just thinking about this. The worst part was she did not immediately apologize but instead made excuses. So unreal and unprofessional. She brought us desserts at a later date but I think the damage was done.

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.

It's packed with flavor and the dipping sauce (nuoc mam) that comes with it compliments the dish. It comes with herbs to freshen up the taste. The eggrolls are also yummy as it has whole shrimp inside. Parking located in front of the store. It's a small store with a couple tables inside and outside. I find more people cater from here than dine in. Service is great! I called in and placed the order and the cashier who answered was very helpful and friendly. Highly recommend this place if you're in for a quick snack that's crunchy, savory, fresh, snd yummy!

It's a perfect takeout restaurant. Service was quick and easy. There was a promotion today? $1 per banh khot. My husband went to order right when it was opened and there was already a ton of take out orders. He tried calling before he went into the restaurant to order, but he didn't get through. I wonder if people order the day before for 11am pick up? But yes, prepare to wait. Everything comes out hot and fresh.

From my initial inquiry, Junior's response time was almost instantaneous and remained so during our prep to final transaction. You definitely get a lot of bang for your buck.

Everyone raved at how delicious it was, as well as, how professional and kind our Chef was. Literally, it was perfection! We look forward to making this neighborhood block party an annual tradition and for sure - Junior/Ask4Tacos is permanently on speed dial!

Love the song title names of their lunch spreads, too.

You say in your response that the charge for staff is included in the price for a 4 hour event. Yet…read morea separate charge for staff was added onto the event. I don't think you should respond with false information and price options. That's not right to do as a business. When a fee for a staffed buffet per person is shown that is what the fee should be. Not blasting people with additional fees and nickel and diming a customer. I have no problem with your company wanting to discuss all this miss information with me. Let me know when you want to.
