    Chicken chorizo paella, seafood paella, and in the back is the vegan paella.

    I hired Homero for my 115 guest wedding and it was a HUGE hit! It was a great way to feed lots of people hot, delicious and unique food. We got a chicken chorizo, a seafood, and a vegan paella. The 3 flavors were all so delicious! Many of our guests were vegan or gluten free, but this dish is something everybody can (and will) enjoy! The aroma while cooking gave such a great atmosphere for my guests and made it such a memorable wedding meal. It was served with a cucumber salad (YUM) and grilled bread. Working with Homero was very easy, he showed up on time and with everything he needed. A zero stress catering option was perfect for us. I totally totally recommend Papa Paella!

    ​We experienced the wonders of Papa Paella at the Toast of Texas wine event. We tried the various versions of paella offered... vegetarian, chicken/sausage and seafood. Chef Homero Garcia is a paella master. Every dish was delicious, easily the best paella we've ever had, at home or abroad. Chef Homero Garcia presents his paella for group events​ (catering)​, and we even discussed possible cooking classes in the future! Awesome paella, highly recommended!!!

    Chef Homero Garcia is an amazing chef and the paella/overall service was outstanding. Super easy to work with and made our rehearsal dinner so special, highly recommend him!!

    What a super cool and unique experience! Papa Paella chef Homero is so kind, willing to cook whatever type of paella your heart desires (we had chicken, chorizo & mussels), and it was absolutely delicious! Can't wait to have him back out for our next family, friend or work event!

    I'd only had paella once before (at a restaurant in Europe) and I wasn't impressed. Fast-forward 15+ years to having some Papa Paella at a pop-up pandemic fundraiser. I couldn't get enough. I STILL can't get enough. Any time I hear Papa Paella is having some kind of event that's open to the public...I'm there. SO delicious! I always get enough for 3-4 meals (though I could probably eat it all in one sitting). Don't think about it. Just do it.

    Incredible service and incredible food. Chef Homero came to my house and made 2 incredible Paellas for a party for 16 people. We had traditional with meat and vegetarian. Both incredibly delicious. Chef Homero also made 2 gorgeous charcuterie boards. The service was exceptional from start to finish. Every detail was taken care and the only thing I provided and more importantly, cleaned up, was beverages. Papa Paella us the inly catering I will use for parties from now on! TOO GOOD!

    My husband and I initially wanted another well-known BBQ Asian fusion restaurant to cater our…read morewedding and were pretty set on it. But after our guest list grew, we had to move locations and our venue was no longer within their catering vicinity. I searched high and low for different vendors that fit the fusion that we wanted, but couldn't find anything that fit just right (or that didn't break the bank). Then I somehow stumbled across Rebel Catering on Google. They had a wide variety of packages for food varying from Asian, to bbq, to Mexican. They didn't have a ton of reviews, and it seemed like they mostly did corporate events, but I gave them a call. I'll be honest, I was a bit apprehensive of how incredibly chill Rahul is at first (because I was already stressed out), but when I told him about our vision, he immediately checked with his chefs and created an incredible menu for us. My mom and mother in law's primary request was copycats of the other restaurant's corn fritters, and he even delivered on that. I'll attach a picture of the menu, but our minds were blown at the quality and freshness of the food. Buffet style brisket is HARD and he and his team crushed it. I even had friends with allergies and he accommodated them without question. The most popular part of the night though was the shaved ice. Part of Rebel Catering is their shaved ice package with alcoholic shaved ice (TABC bartender included). They had custom flavors to match our Asian fusion theme, and even brought their truck in to serve our guests! They also created a custom flavor named after our cat and created a sign with a cute cartoon of him. They also had tons of other drinks including sodas, jelly drinks, boba drinks, and energy drinks. TLDR: HIRE REBEL CATERING. Your guests will love you forever.

    Rahul and his team were amazing. Communication was excellent throughout the planning stages for our…read morewedding. We received so many compliments on the food! The addition of the shaved ice station was such a fun and unique touch that our guests absolutely loved. Highly recommend!

I have planned large events before and Roadhaus made it easy, while also enabling us to add our personal touch with a specific drink menu and a customized cocktail for the party. Every interaction we had with Roadhaus staff (and those supporting them from The Roosevelt Room) was exceptional, and their care for their craft is evident in everything they've created and deployed. The cocktails were excellent, and the mobile bar well-stocked, leading several of our guests to rave about the experience and further cementing in my mind that Justin Lavenue, Dennis and their crew are simply among the best in the world at what they do. Five stars are too few for an experience like this.

I am very strict about food being served hot, and they absolutely delivered -- everything came out DELICIOUS. Our guests kept telling us it was some of the best wedding food they've ever had!

She thinks of the little things -- for example, we had tiramisu from an outside vendor for dessert. She asked if we wanted them to bring extra cocoa powder to make the slices look more appealing. Who does that? Not to mention she's just really sweet and cheerful. Everything went wonderfully the day of, and many, many people raved about the food! They accomodated an Argentinian-theme wedding for us, and even worked to refine small tweaks we made with a follow-up tasting. We also did adorable, late-night Chicago hot dogs that were also a hit! Their prices were very reasonable, too. To be completely honest, they did forget one very small thing (a drink garnish) and a bigger thing (fries we meant to serve with hot dogs), but honestly, that was far from our biggest concern, and they owned up to the mistake and refunded us. Overall, highly recommend!
