    Burrito

    I'm so mad that taco mells can make better burritos than me and I can cook very very well . The best burritos in all of Los Angeles hands down and there black owned

    This is a review from #NOT4$ale626 Haven't heard about this catering place until this event. Apparently there are restaurants too? Anyway, the tacos were awesome! The shells really stuck out to me. Not only that, but the sprinkles of cheese at the bottom were a nice surprise. Great meats within the tacos (had beef and chicken). Loved the sauce too. It was a slight kick so it brought the tacos to another level. Would recommend!

    Yummy n good hood tacos! I got the steak n shrimp burrito per the employees suggestion and got a few tacos to bring home and snack on later. Everything tasted fresh, was flavorful and a pretty quick order/get food process. Idk what they do to the shell of the tacos but they're kinda grilled and just elevate the taco. I truly couldn't tell you if they were flour or corn bc I didn't think about what I was eating until it was all gone. Oops. Next time!

    Great time here and I'll definitely be back! Food was so flavorful and reasonably priced. Love supporting local black owned restaurants.

    World Famous 3 Meat: $14.00
    Paul V.

    Taco Mell has been on my bookmarks list for at least three years with tales of their legendary three meat burrito. Finally, stuck in my office during covid one day I caved and ordered what turned out to be a rock solid burrito. Star 1: How were the service and atmosphere? I had my burrito delivered, so I can't speak to Taco Mell's shop or service, but I've only heard good things and my delivery couldn't have been faster. This burrito was literally in the Uber Eats car minutes after ordering - it was impressive. Star. Star 2: How were the portions relative to the cost? $14.00 may seem like a lot for a burrito, but this was a monstrosity filled with chicken, steak, and shrimp. Well worth it and it could have easily covered two meals. Star. Stars 3 and 4: How was the food? This was a solid burrito. The meats came together in a way that works, and the peripherals like the beans and onions and the like, while a bit heavy, brought it all together. Single Star. Star 5: Would you be excited to go back? Definitely. Good stuff. Star.

    A mess/ inedible

    It's sad to even have to write this review, I've heard so many good things. This food I just had delivered to me is a waste of money!!!! I got the 3 meat combo bowl & a large kool aid. I asked for the sauce in the side, they drowned the damn food in sauce( Sauce on the side should be a no brainer when delivering food) Gauc was $1 extra look at what I got Got No Cilantro, Onions, nothing that was advertised. The beef & chicken are both salty as hell! Can't even eat it. The shrimp is ok only 4 of them in the whole bowl. The Rice is mushy definitely not fresh. Shit was $21 for trash. Ate 3 bites and got a stomach ache immediately. I called the restaurant and they never picked up. I will never order here again, don't waste your money legit this is not cool at all.

    First and foremost congratulations are in order. Started from the bottom now they're here. When you go from a street corner to a packed store front you deserve all the praise and glory that come along with that accomplishment. Of course we had to get the three meat burrito. The portion size was enough for two meals even though I ate it in one. The three meat had chicken, carne asada, and shrimp. All the meats were perfectly tender and the rice and beans were seasoned just right. I only have one complaint and that's that my $12 burrito only had 4 shrimp in it.

    Chicken taco
    Monee G.

    I always see people raving about this place in different social media platforms so I definitely had my eye and bookmark on this place. My brother decided to take us, there's construction on chrenshaw so if you're not from this area prepare for traffic, difficulty parking, cones, streets cut off etc When you enter it's not to spacious nowhere to really sit and enjoy your food if you want to eat there. I ordered the 3 meat burrito (shrimp, chicken, steak) it comes with rice, beans, onions & cilantro I request no beans, paid 50 cent extra for cheese and use my check in to order a free chicken taco. Total $12.59 As soon as I'm done paying for it the guy was already handing me the bag with my food in it, I suppose the meat is already cooked so it makes it faster than cooking when you order. I wasn't to concerned as I would be because since it was so busy I could understand why the meat was already prepared. I get home Unravel my baby burrito, the first thing I noticed the tortilla itself on the outside was extremely greasy! Every bite I took I kept getting residue on my mouth and it felt like I was trying to consume Vaseline. The steak was salty and tough it tasted exactly like a Slim Jim, the chicken was good probably the best part because the shrimp was vague there was barely any in my burrito but I'm going to blame it on the fact that I had 2 other proteins in my burrito. I tried both the red and green salsa the red was caliente while the green had a slight kick both good. The chicken taco was yummy, I didn't finish my burrito it just wasn't all that to me, if I ever go back I'll stick with the tacos. I love to see black owned business thrive and flourish, I hope you guys can benefit the community as we continue to support this establishment.

    Catering a Ladies' Night Out Party
    Alisha M.

    The food was GREAT and the services was wonderful. They had no idea of what they were stepping into when they showed up to cater my Ladies' Not Out event. They served over 70 women in one night chicken, steak and shrimp tacos. We had a marvelous time and enjoyed all the love they poured into serving us.

    Clearly says Shrimp and Steak
    Kathryn C.

    The flavors were great but the meat was OVER seasoned which didn't really make the 3 meat burr too enjoyable. I don't know maybe I had a bad batch? ‍ Update: So I'm changing my review to 2 stars because I ordered online and ordered a steak and shrimp burrito but they sent me steak and chicken. This has actually happened to me before when I've ordered through an app but I never said anything about it because I wasn't tripping, after all their flavors are bomb and I love supporting my black businesses, but this has been the 3rd time they've messed up my order through online services and now I'm here. This time around, I ordered 10mins after they opened. So they probably didn't have the shrimp ready? But no excuse, If you are out of shrimp or whatever ingredients the least you can do is call the customer and let them know if they'd like to substitute or just let them know period! This is really disappointing because it has happened 3 times to me now . Bomb food but your staffs communication needs to come up!

Quick responses and seamless customer service. Ordered for 100 guests and we were impressed by the amount of food received; there was more than enough to feed our additional last-minute guests we hadn't included in the original headcount. Everything was so light & colorful and tasted just as delicious as it looked. Appreciated the beautiful floral touches to the platters. We got the seasonal fruit platter, assorted viennoiseries, chia pudding, yogurt parfaits and coffee/tea. Per Katie's recommendation we added cookies--which were a huge hit with guests (and staff)! The menu was curated for dairy free/GF/vegan options. The delivery with Ramon went smoothly: right on time, clear communication via text and help with the set up. The whole Bites & Bashes team did such a professional job. You won't regret working with this family-owned business!

From the menu options to working directly with Mariah, who patiently answered my hundred questions and was so accommodating with all the little tweaks I made to our order, to the delivery and presentation, everything turned out so wonderfully. And, most importantly, our guests LOVED the food! We went with the Mexican menu, along with some appetizers and the Gochujang tofu. My only regret is that I didn't order more of the tofu! We had a few vegetarians in attendance, but EVERYONE was eating it. My husband and I served ourselves last, so by the time we made it to the buffet, there was barely any left. Honestly, though, I think that says everything about how much our guests loved the food! It just gives us an excuse to host another big party so we can have Bites and Bashes cater again. I truly can't recommend them enough. Everyone we worked with was incredibly kind, helpful, and professional, and the entire experience was wonderful from beginning to end. JUST WOW! Thank you, Bites and Bashes, for helping make our wedding day so delicious and special! 5 stars isn't enough of a high rating.

The portion was pretty good for our group size. We even had lots of leftovers. For some of the food items: -Chopped Turkey: Both the white and dark meats were juicy, succulent and flavorful. However, I do wish there was a larger meat ratio relative to all the sides. It also was a bit messy with the juices, so I would recommend even tighter packing. -Mashed Potatoes: Perfectly creamy and buttery. -Stuffing: Soft and flavorful. -Green Bean Casserole: Creamy and the green beans were cooked well. I would suggest putting the fried onion topping on the side so it could be crunchy. I'm not the biggest fan of Thanksgiving foods and I think this spread was great! Ordering and coordinating the order was relatively easy. I do wish the email etiquette and general communication was more professional though. We also received our order a bit later than scheduled, but I was told they were short on drivers for that day. I also liked the insulated bag the food came in. Overall, a good experience here and I would consider ordering catering from here again.

I'm just remembering how wonderful the tacos were, especially the tortilla. Corn and soft, this is NOT your typical grocery store purchase. I think they source it from a legit Latina market. That's what I mean by authenticity. For all our dishes, they got both Korean and Mexican cuisines right. Chubby Fingers brings the real deal.

OMG... as I'm writing this, I'm still craving the food we had that day from Chubby Fingers! After doing multiple tastings with other caterers, we chose them for their generous portions and amazing value at a very competitive price point. Why we chose them: Before choosing them, we actually met with several other caterers and even did tastings to compare our options. What really stood out about Chubby Fingers was how generous and abundant their offerings were at a very similar price point. The value honestly surprised us in the best way. The Experience (Catering Drop-off): We ended up doing a catering drop-off, and even with that setup, you could truly feel the care and thought they put into everything. The presentation was beautiful and everything was packed so nicely -- it still felt very special and intentional. The Food (The highlight of our day!): On the day of the event, the food completely exceeded our expectations. Everything was fresh, beautifully presented, and full of flavor. Our guests kept complimenting the food throughout the event, and several people even came up to ask where we found the caterer because they wanted the information for their own events. Our Menu Highlights: 1. Chubs Bossam: Slow-roasted caramelized pork shoulder with ssam bar (perilla leaves, lettuce, and samjang). Absolute hit! 2. Japchae: Korean sweet potato glass noodles with mushrooms and vegetables. 3. Gochujang Glazed Veggies: Roasted market vegetables with a subtle, delicious gochujang glaze. 4.Yuzu Tomato Salad: Heirloom tomatoes with greens and a refreshing yuzu vinaigrette (so fresh!). and the White Rice was included! The team was professional, responsive, and genuinely cared about making our day special. I'm so sad I didn't take more photos, I was so busy hosting and enjoying the event, but the presentation in person looked even better than the photos!) If you're planning an event, do yourself a favor and book Chubby Fingers--you won't regret it! I truly can't recommend them enough if you want to impress your guests!
