Steve and I want to thank Scott Tessler and his entire team from Silver Spoons for making Sunday's…read moreOpen House to Meet the Baby [our new grandchild] a truly special occasion for us, and one where we felt as if we did not have to lift a finger! Silver Spoons made everything happen, put the numerous gorgeous bouquets that people brought away in the perfect vases, which Scott or his team somehow found on their own without bothering me. They made everything look delicious despite the unbelievable heat, and then, on top of everything else - everything WAS delicious and delightful. The food was fantastic. And Scott Tessler and his team all talked to our guests in such a nice way. It was fun to have them there. We have used Silver Spoons intermittently over the years - for our daughter's wedding in Malibu in 2015, and now again, to introduce her baby to our friends and family. I'm beginning to think we should do this more often - the results from Scott and Silver Spoons are outstanding. After our event was over, exhausted, we came back to our kitchen, and discovered scads of perfectly wrapped leftovers - Steve and I simultaneously went hunting for that incredible mustard - oh, no, did they leave us some? Yes! You left us a significant amount, nicely wrapped up. And you cleaned up the kitchen beautifully! Even mopped! Everything was left in perfect order. I've been enjoying all the leftovers now for a few days. We have already given Silver Spoons' contact information to one guest at the party, who was very impressed with its work. Many of our guests were already familiar with Silver Spoons from their experiences at University Synagogue (now part of Wilshire Boulevard Temple). The food, the presentation, interaction with guests, following of dietary/allergy restrictions - all perfect. We had magnificent vegetables for the vegans, gluten-free dishes of all kinds that were superb, regular dishes that were wonderful - the food was great. And the service is exceptional. Our baby grandson had a grand debut in the Millers' back yard, and Silver Spoons Catering was a big part of that. Silver Spoons did a wonderful job, and we thank them for it.

She had the dietary requests perfect, flowed through the kitchen as it was her own, and brought her Server, who was extremely accommodating and professional as well. He topped off her 5 Star courses with 5 star Service. We all truly enjoyed this EXPERIENCE and would highly recommend her for anyone looking for an intimate event or even a large event. I'm confident she will not disappoint. We will be calling on her again for our next event and I'm sure she'll have many other referrals from our guests who attended. Thank you Lisa for exceeding my expectations.

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.

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.

They really went all out this time! I have been hiring Distinctive Catering for decades now because I know that I can count on them to come through every single time!

They were a bunch of busy bees, dressed in their freshly pressed uniforms and looking every bit the professional chefs and serve staff, setting up the Tri-Tip carving station & Italian pasta bar, and creating an atmosphere of abundance and delicious beauty! Each station looked and smelled amazing! My guests didn't even wait until our emcee announced that the food was ready! lol They just followed the mouthwatering aromas emanating from the stations! In the Italian pasta bar, each guest's plate was made to order by their creative chefs and satisfied each one's preferred taste combination, whether it be chicken breast, Italian sausage, shrimp, spinach, mushrooms, fresh basil, sun-dried tomatoes, a myriad of other fresh veggies, garlic, Parmesan cheese and delectable sauces, like pesto, marinara, vodka and Alfredo! The tri-tip carving station was manned by another set of smiling chefs including their famous Caesar salad with Parmesan cheese, delicious garlic bread and extra large platters of fresh, seasonal fruit! They set up refreshing lemonade and iced tea as well and shared their ice with the bartenders too! Well-prepared and kind this band of talented chefs, they were! I always say that the food makes the party - and Distinctive Catering really brought their A-game! Everything looked and tasted fresh and delicious in glorious abundance!

Communication could be better when planning the event. I had to reach out multiple times throughout the process. They ran out of burgers for my guests even though they said they brought extra patties. (I did not go over guest count nor did anyone get seconds). I did a menu of OG burgers and grilled cheese and specifically asked if there would be enough for 40 adult burgers and about 5 kid patties. There may have been miscommunication, but about 7 of my guests did not get burgers. I give 4 stars even though it was frustrating and I feel like I did not get my moneys worth. Again, burgers were great for those who ate them and Daniel and his cook were nice.

The fresh pasta was delicious, the salad was excellent, and the appetizer trays were beautifully presented and practically works of art. The desserts were incredible as well. After food service was finished, the team carefully packed everything up and cleaned the area before leaving, which was greatly appreciated. This was our first experience with Olive Wood Pizza, and they absolutely exceeded our expectations. From the planning process to the food and service to the cleanup, everything was first-class. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Olive Wood Pizza to friends, family, or colleagues, and we would definitely use them again for a future event.
