YOOSHI SUSHI CATERING & EVENT PRODUCTION 

5.0

  • Serves Playa Del Rey, CA

I had my first shot at managing a sushi restaurant when I took over an empty section of the family restaurant and introduced sushi to my customers. It was a challenge that I will never regret accepting. It was fun, a lot of fun! I had the opportunity to work with some really talented and creative chefs. I quickly learned that it’s not just about having fresh fish anymore. Sushi dining has transformed into a culture. A culture built by imagination and creativity. With the help of GD and the support of my family, I took all that experience and fused it with my imagination and created Yooshi Sushi Catering and Event Production.

Awarded Best of Zola
Yooshi Sushi were a great choice for a sushi bar for our wedding. The display was stunning and we received compliments about how good the sushi was throughout the night and weeks following the wedding. It's been 3 weeks and we still have guests talking about how good the food was. The price breakdown on their website makes planning easy and the owner, Farzad was very kind and made the process easy. Big plus that they are certified Kosher, which took care of providing food for our Kosher observant guests. Highly recommend, you will not be disappointed.

Mr Fresh Sushi Catering 

5.0

  • Serves Playa Del Rey, CA

Mr Fresh Sushi Catering, top-rated sushi catering service in Southern California, offers you an unforgettable sushi experience with our experienced private sushi chefs and high-quality food. With live sushi stations, omakase style and custom menus available, Mr Fresh Catering will make your event shine.

A Dream Wedding Brought to Life Through Sushi Artistry We cannot thank Mr. Fresh Sushi Catering enough for the unforgettable culinary experience they provided at our wedding! From our very first tasting to the final roll served on our big day, their team was professional, passionate, and beyond talented. Our wedding took place at the Adamson House in Malibu, and the setting was already beautiful—but Mr. Fresh brought it to the next level with a stunning sushi and appetizer spread that completely wowed our guests. We chose a stationary appetizer format to allow for a relaxed, social vibe, and it worked perfectly. The sushi was incredibly fresh, artfully presented, and bursting with flavor. Guests are still raving about the spicy tuna poke cones, the live sushi station, and the yakitori skewers that were grilled to perfection. Even our friends who aren't huge sushi lovers went back for seconds (and thirds). The presentation was elegant and fit seamlessly with our theme—modern, clean, and full of coastal charm. The Mr. Fresh team worked closely with us to customize the menu and made sure every dietary preference was considered. Their professionalism, creativity, and care truly made our wedding feel unique and personal. If you're considering a sushi-forward catering option for your event—look no further. Mr. Fresh Sushi Catering is the best decision we made (besides saying "I do")! — Maya & Kenji W.

  • Starts at $840
  • Serves Playa Del Rey, CA

Welcome to My House Events, a mission-centered catering company serving Los Angeles, New Orleans, and beyond. We partner with BIPOC, Women, and LGBTQ+ chefs and event professionals to create extraordinary events that go beyond traditional catering. From food trucks to lavish multi-course dinners, our diverse menus are tailored to your tastes, ensuring an unforgettable culinary experience. At My House Events, we take pride in curating events that exceed expectations while cultivating lasting relationships with our valued clients.

Awarded Best of Zola
Since our venue did not have a preferred vendor list or a built-in catering team, we were given maximum flexibility (which is also intimidating, as the choice and freedom can be a bit overwhelming). To help narrow things down, our planner prompted us to choose a single type of cuisine that we like, and work from there. We both love New Orleans / Cajun cuisine, so enter My House. From their first proposal, we were all in. It featured childhood favorites like fried catfish, and out-of-the-ordinary passed appetizers like mini chicken & waffles. Our first calls with them were relaxed, collaborative and informative. Our first tasting, while kinda pricey (isn't everything?), went really well - and gave us a chance to provide more feedback and tweaks, which were promptly applied to later estimates and menus. As our planning evolved, it was a little tough to try to keep the budget in check, and it meant making some tough calls to cut costs (for instance - jettisoning late night bites), My House was always willing to work with both us and our planner on finding financial solutions - but there were a few moments where we felt like we didn't know what to expect, and stressed out a bit when we saw the latest numbers. I suppose this is part of the process for lots of couples. I never lost faith that they'd turn it out on the big day, and I'm happy to share that they did just that. They created an incredibly tasteful display for our buffet, which struck a balance between rustic and elegant. The staff was helpful, efficient, and professional - but I want to give special highlight to Simone. Simone was personable, diligent and intuitive. She knows exactly what she's doing, any couple would be very lucky to have her running any aspect of their event - because she does it with aplomb. The food was absolutely delicious. Big, bold flavors - zesty, crunchy, creamy, smoky, cheesy, sweet and spicy and everything in between . We loved hosting such a delectable menu that departed from the traditional wedding fare, but stayed true to the cuisine of New Orleans and the tastes of Southern comfort. So, so, so, so good!

Founded by Food Network winning Chef Shieya, The Kookery is a craft catering company focused on making your dream wedding experience a reality. We specialize in curating menus as unique as you! We collaborate with you and your vendors for a perfect experience down to the smallest details.

Awarded Best of Zola
How can I even begin to describe the greatness that is Chef Shieya and the Kookery and how wonderful she made our wedding?! It started off with planning mode. With an American and a Brazilian getting married, we wanted to have a dish from each culture to make it special for our guests. With a sea bass dish and the steak picanha, everyone could choose. The sous vide steak was so tender, cooked to perfection, the color on it so beautiful, it was the winner. We had a few vegans at the party, and she took care of them ahead of time and knew exactly where they were sitting and who they were. And as always, Chef wanted to kick it up a notch, so she got some black truffles to really make the dishes pop. The full course meal from the watermelon salad to squid ink pasta to the main courses to the wedding cake she made herself was decadent, super tasty, and plated like a million dollars. Aside from the food being perfect, Chef Shieya and the Kookery team delivered a professional experience like no other. From setup to breakdown, they had it handled to where we didn't have to worry at all. The team arrived early in the morning. We went up to go get ready and change for the wedding party, and by the time we came back down they were already completely set up and serving guests. There are so many attention to detail things we didn't even think of, nor did we have to because they already knew what we needed, even though we didn't. So many touches that just made everything run so smoothly. We didn't have to do a thing, and all the guests were taken care of. People still talk about how good our wedding reception food was, saying it was the best they've ever had, better than the regular boring standard food at other weddings. Our special day was made so much more magical because of Shieya and her team. She does everything only to perfection, and even goes a step further to make it personal and unforgettable. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts!

Fire and wood was one of the most memorable things about my whole wedding. Everyone loved the food! My roots are in the east coast, so when I read about Chef Thomas and saw his food photos, I was drooling with anticipation. I loved what he had to offer on his catering menu but I challenged him to make a few fun twists for me. My close family and friend from NYC/NJ gave it all a chef’s kiss approval. I went home with leftovers and my hubby and I relived the moments for a week! 10/10

Border Grill Catering 

5.0

  • Serves Playa Del Rey, CA

In 1985, Chef/Owners Susan Feniger and Mary Sue Milliken debuted the first Border Grill as a small, forty seat “taco stand” on Melrose out of a deep affection and appreciation of the Mexican kitchen. Effortlessly blending their classical culinary training with conscientiously-sourced ingredients, and regional recipes inspired by home cooks from Oaxaca to Mexico City, street vendors in Tijuana, and taco stands along the Yucatan and Baja coasts, the award-wining chefs continue to evolve their California-inflected Mexican-inspired cuisine.

We worked with Border Grill for our August wedding in Los Angeles, and we couldn't be happier! Working with them in the months leading up to the wedding were so easy, Taylor was super responsive and helpful in arranging everything. It was easy to get pricing and we really appreciated the transparency when getting pricing packages for different types of service. We ended up going with the taco buffet option, and we have received so many compliments on the food from our guests! On the day, the Border Grill team was prepared, professional, kind, and efficient. They helped out with all the little things like pouring water at the tables, busing cocktail glasses, and even kindly prepared plated dishes for me and my husband. We didn't have to worry about a thing for catering the entire day. The food was absolutely delicious! I highly recommend working with Border Grill for your event!

Such a unique touch! We really wanted a Spanish jamón at our wedding but had the hardest time finding someone actually trained to cut it until we found Senín from Casa Strada. Since he himself is Spanish we knew he’d understand exactly what we wanted. He had different budget options for the ham itself, took care of everything, and cut some beautiful plates of ham.

Founded by individuals passionate for creating a deliciously, interactive party environment. We are Critic’s Choice, a family owned and operated full service catering and event production company based in Redondo Beach, CA. We began our culinary journey in 1984 and have remained true to our core values since the very start. We believe in honest, fair pricing and locally sourced, custom menus made from scratch, with love daily. We invite you to taste the magic and help us celebrate decades of client satisfaction, successful event production and outstanding cuisine.

Summary If you are planning a wedding and unsure of where to start. Start here. Start with Kaycie and her team. Put your trust in her, her vision, and the team she has. They are amazing, professional, pay attention to all the details (large and small), fun, and will be there every step of the way to ensure everything, and I do mean EVERYTHING, will go off without a hitch. The Planning From the time I reached out to Kaycie via Zola, she was responsive, available, flexible, and most importantly, she took the TIME to discuss things with me and answer all of my questions (and I had A LOT). She truly LIFTED a weight off my shoulders and helped me plan the best day while living 3,000 miles away. Yes, that is right, I planned a wedding for ~200 people from 3,000 miles away in Boston, MA with her help, and you would never have guessed it because it was flawless. There were no glitches and she was even able to help us get some last minutes items to help make the day even more memorable like glass champagne flutes and helping to collect our gift box during the night. The Food In addition to all of the above, the food was AMAZING. We enjoy cooking and were a bit nervous with a catering company, but the chicken and fish were moist, the meat tender, the veggies were roasted so well, the rolls, the appetizers and the late-night snacks (completely Kaycie's idea that I almost did not do and they ended up being a real hit and needed!!), were ALL SO INCREDIBLY DELICIOUS!! Final Notes I cannot thank her and her team enough for making a difficult task and a long day feel effortless and so much more than the day I could have ever hoped for. I was not sure what to expect when we arrived, but she even met us a few days before the first time we met in person to do a final walk-through that helped us envision the day and she DELIVERED and then some! Do not doubt that you won't need the help, you will. Do not wait until you have already pulled your hair out, because you'll get there. If you read nothing else, read this: YOU CANNOT GO WRONG WITH CRITICS CHOICE. CHOOSE KAYCIE AND HER TEAM!! P.S. I am planning to add some photos soon!

We understand that planning a wedding can be a challenging task. After finding your perfect venue, simply call us! We’ll help you navigate the catering options and promise to make it enjoyable process for you and your spouse. Catering should be totally stress free and an enjoyable part of your planning; we are here to help!

Food was incredibly important to us, and we wanted our catering search to be stress-free, so we contacted Fundamental from our venue’s (SmogShoppe) recommended vendor list. From the moment we connected with Fundamental, Cindy made us feel confident we could have a fantastic meal within our budget. The tasting experience was particularly special—personal, delicious, and our favorite part of our planning process. We kept it simple with three passed appetizers for cocktail hour and a family-style dinner, but the food was anything but simple! Guests raved to us all night that it was the best wedding food they’d ever had—and we couldn’t agree more! Choosing a favorite dish is nearly impossible, but the fried chicken sliders, ahi tuna tacos, garlic basil sea bass, and wild mushroom pasta were definite standouts. For dessert, we initially planned to have pies from a local shop to add a personal touch, but with limited fridge space, we opted for Fundamental’s dessert bar. We’re so glad we did—everything was handled seamlessly, and the desserts were a huge hit. They also managed the bartending, including high-quality margaritas and Old Fashioneds that perfectly complemented the evening. All the food and drinks were exceptional, far beyond traditional wedding fare. I highly recommend Fundamental for all your catering needs!

They all started with “usually wedding food isn’t great, but ALL of the food has been so good.” ALSO, when we sat down for dinner Felicia brought us a plate of apps because we were too busy during cocktail hour to have any and she wanted to make sure we got some too. I loved that so much, just so thoughtful. So thank you Fusion catering for a great wedding experience.

Try a little of everything (the Weaknees is a great variety) and add a cheddar jalapeño sausage. Pair it all with a cider or beer from the bar - perfection. Cannot recommend enough.

Awarded Best of Zola
We’ve used food first events & catering three times now. The level of detail, service, and food is outstanding from begging to the end. These guys are pros. We even trusted them with our wedding. I wouldn’t do it any other way. They go above and beyond with helping with all the details of events to ensure the customer has an excellent time. Innovative ways of accommodating us and coming up with great ideas where all of our guests were amazed. The food is top notch quality. They accommodated diverse requests. For example, surf and turf, to vegan, and our last event, which was Thai. All were outstanding, think Michelin star quality. They are very kind and take all of our needs in to consideration. They have great ideas on how to make an incredible event thats creates life long memories. These guys are the best! They even did my sisters wedding.

Manuela

  • Starts at $1,600
  • Serves Playa Del Rey, CA

Located in the Arts District of Los Angeles, Manuela unites chef, farmer and artist to create an authentic and original dining experience. Under the direction of Executive Chef Kris Tominaga, the menu celebrates seasonal ingredients sourced from the best farms and producers in Southern California. Serving a wide range of vegetables, grains, fish, and game, Manuela also features an exemplary bar program, which serves classic cocktails using house-made bitters and tonics. Local beers are on tap, while the carefully selected wine list is designed to pair with the smoke and acid at the heart of Manuela’s menu.

Recently my partner and I held our wedding reception at Manuela, and it was truly magical. The team worked with us to create the perfect chic, elevated farm to table evening. Hidden in the back garden, our guests felt like VIP as they entered the location, passing amazing curated art and a lively scene at the actual restaurant, (the restaurant is amazing and another hidden gem of the Arts District). With a perfect night under the stars, we sipped in the private garden with a lovely satellite bar and the team created some amazing cocktails, with fresh infused herbs from the very garden we were celebrating in. The food was a hit as well, exploring elevated fare with some Southern influence. The biscuits and the chicken really provided the wow factor. With speeches and some great music, we created new memories that everyone will take with them. This place was complimented throughout the evening, which made us feel good. The events team worked with us from food to floral to table set up and nothing was forgotten. When we arrived, the night was set. Thank you Manuela for a magical and memorable time.
