Specialties
Mafia’s Catering is a boutique, chef-driven catering company offering bold Italian-American, Sicilian, and global fusion cuisine rooted in family tradition and elevated by modern creativity. Founded and led by Executive Chef Linda Turturici, Mafia’s is built on generations of knowledge passed down through Sicilian kitchens, farm-fresh simplicity, and a deep respect for authentic flavor. Every menu is crafted from scratch using real ingredients—never mass-produced, never generic—because food should feel personal, intentional, and unforgettable.
At the heart of our brand is our signature cannoli collection, a guest favorite and show-stopping dessert experience. Each cannoli is hand-filled to order using house-made ricotta and custom-blended creams inspired by true Sicilian technique. From classic orange ricotta and pistachio to indulgent creations like tiramisu, espresso, berry coulis, caramel banana flambé, chocolate lovers’ blends, and seasonal specialties, every bite is balanced, beautiful, and unforgettable.
Equally distinctive is our International Arancini Collection, where traditional Sicilian rice croquettes meet global inspiration. From classic Sicilian flavors to bold international fusions, each arancini is hand-rolled, deeply flavorful, and paired with complementary sauces that elevate the experience.
Mafia’s Catering specializes in private events, celebrations, and custom menus tailored to your vision. This isn’t just catering—it’s a taste you can’t refuse
History
Established in 2025.
Mafia’s Catering was founded in 2025 by Executive Chef Linda Turturici. Born in the United States and raised in Sicily from infancy, Linda grew up surrounded by traditional Sicilian cooking and learned many of her culinary skills from her father and family. Food was always at the center of family life, where fresh ingredients and time-honored techniques shaped her passion for cooking.
After returning to the United States, Linda attended culinary school and continued developing her skills through professional experience. She worked in event catering at Pebble Beach, helping execute large-scale events and high-end hospitality services.
Linda later spent over a year working as a private chef for a client who prefers to remain anonymous, creating personalized menus and refined dining experiences. Today, Mafia’s Catering blends Sicilian tradition with modern fusion cuisine, focusing on fresh ingredients, bold flavors, and memorable meals for every event
