    Tri Tip
    David G.

    APEX BBQ is a great addition to the Orange County barbecue scene. The owner Steve takes great pride in perfecting his craft and delivering for catered events. I have used his services four times now and the only problem is I run out of food every time.

    I have had Apex catered several times now! I wasn't a fan of smoked meats, until I tried Steve's! The Tri Tip is my favorite and it goes great with his homemade beans.

    My boyfriend has gotten meat from Steve a few times... I'm a picky eater and everything he has gotten from him is always flavorful and juicy, Highly recommend!!! You won't be disappointed :)

    I like coming here to buy freshly prepared side dishes (banchan). They have a set of staple side…read moredishes that are always available such as soy-marinated eggs, soybean sprout (kongnamul), potato salad, along with rotating seasonal options. They also offer main dishes that serves 1-2 people that change daily. When I visited, they had galbi jjim, which was absolutely delicious. As the name suggests, they do catering but you should give at least 5-7 days' notice especially during the holidays. I tried to place a catering order during Thanksgiving week and wasn't able to because they were already fully booked. If they were closer, I'd come here at least twice a week to replenish my banchan fix. Nonetheless, I always go out of my way to return!

At Joeun, we chose three items from…read morethem for catering: JAPCHAE (glass noodles with assorted vegetables), TEMPURA SHRIMP, and GANGJUNG CHICKEN (sweet and sour fried chicken). They did a PHENOMENAL job getting the order ready precisely on time. The food was a huge SUCCESS! Our guests especially loved the Japchae, with several people asking where it was from. I mentioned that this place specializes in catering, so individual orders might not be possible. The Tempura Shrimp was also a BIG HIT and was the FIRST ITEM TO DISAPPEAR from the buffet platters. Finally, the Gangjung Chicken was DELICIOUS, boasting a perfectly crispy texture and a wonderfully balanced, savory flavor. At the end of the party, I was thrilled to have leftovers to enjoy the following day.

    Absolutely Outstanding! Taylor Made Cuisine Made Our Wedding Perfect!…read more I honestly don't know what I would have done without Taylor Made Cuisine! If I could give 10 stars I would!!! My husband and I had been living in Arizona for the past eight months while our home in San Clemente was being renovated. The project was supposed to be finished in January, giving me six months to plan our intimate Fourth of July patio wedding. Instead, the renovation wasn't completed until mid-June, leaving me with just two weeks to plan everything. What were the chances of finding a caterer - let alone an exceptional one - with only two weeks' notice on one of the busiest holidays of the year? Thankfully, Taylor Made Cuisine came to the rescue! From the very beginning, the ordering process was seamless, organized, and completely stress-free. They made everything so easy during a time when I was juggling countless wedding details. The food was absolutely exquisite! Every dish was beautifully prepared and presented, and our guests couldn't stop talking about how delicious everything was. People were going back for seconds and asking who our caterer was! I also loved the elegant menu display that listed each dish and its ingredients - it was such a thoughtful, classy touch that elevated the entire presentation. What truly made the experience exceptional was Beatriz. She was simply AH-MAZING! She arrived right on time, handled the entire setup flawlessly, and made everything look beautiful. Throughout the event, she was constantly working behind the scenes, serving guests, discreetly clearing plates, keeping everything spotless, and making sure everyone was taken care of. She was incredibly professional, warm, attentive, and genuinely a joy to have at our wedding. My aunt Sue just thought the world of her when she told me the next day she had a wonderful conservation with her. Thanks to her, I was actually able to relax and enjoy our special day instead of worrying about the details. If you're searching for a caterer and reading reviews, stop here and call Taylor Made Cuisine. You will not find a company that provides more personalized service, attention to detail, professionalism, and genuinely delicious food. They exceeded every expectation I had and played a huge part in making our wedding day absolutely perfect. I will happily use Taylor Made Cuisine for every future event. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for making our wedding so memorable. We are beyond grateful!

Jay's makes the whole process easy and seamless. We worked with Brittany, and she was such a joy to work with. She kept us informed and helped us every step in the process. Their tasting events also are very helpful in choosing the menu for your event. At first we originally had a menu selected, but after attending the tasting event and trying various items, we ended up changing our menu. If you have the privilege to work with Jay's you should choose them! Jay's catering also caters food at a cafe at my work and all my coworkers love their food. Just another verification that Jay's has awesome food.

Once we confirmed the event was back on, I reached back out and she made everything seamless. The food was AMAZING. Literally everyone came up to me during the event to say how good it was.

From the initial email conversation, Edgar with Tacos Zapata was professional and eager to help. The other two caters I reached out to failed to communicate back in a timely manner and thus lost business. On the day of the event, Chris with Tacos Zapata arrived on time and helped bring some delicious food to a relatively emotional day for the memorial guests. I didn't get to try all the food, but I did have leftovers for the next week, and it was equally as delicious. I would highly recommend Tacos Zapata Taco Catering for any type of event. Thanks for handling the food and taking the stress off a grieving daughter!

Knowing everyone would be tired and hungry after the graduation ceremony, I wanted to have the dinner follow immediately after the ceremony without having the formality and structure of restaurant dining nor the extra work of picking up food from a restaurant. I found Party in a Box on-line and was impressed by the breadth and sophication of the menu items with a price point that was very competitive with the other options I was evaluating. Chef Dawn responded to my initial inquiry the same day. She answered my basic questions and provided a quote by the following morning. She suggested further refinements to the menu to ensure we satisfied all my guests' varied tastes. Food was delivered and setup in my back yard before we arrived home from the ceremony. Warm dishes were kept on chafing plates and the other items were covered to stay cool. The presentation was beautiful (orchid flowers garnished some of the platters). And the food was devine! Everyone raved about it as they ate seconds and thirds. The best part was we had leftovers for the following day. Nothing went to waste! Party in a Box elevated my small graduation dinner into a memorable and beautiful event. The quality, the value, and service was world class and I look forward to using Chef Dawn's Party in a Box for my next special event.
