    I did a lot of research before hiring a catering company for my Bridal shower as I had a specific vision in mind and wanted a beautiful look as well as food that tasted great. After deciding to book with Stems, the whole process from start to finish was seamless and professional. The booking and communication was top notch. They arrived on time, executed everything like a champ and Caitlin worked so hard the day of to make sure our vision was brought to life! The food was outstanding..home made, fresh and some of the best tasting baked goods ever! Our guests were so happy, as were we and we can't thank Stems enough! They will for sure be our go to catering moving forward. Please don't think twice about booking them, you won't be disappointed.

    I'm not usually big on boards and charcuteries as I always just feel like "it's overpriced cheese and meat." Stems has completely changed my opinion. My board was a work of art. I got the smallest board that feeds 2-3 people, but the two of us ended up taking 2.5 days to finish the board. FOOD: It was such a good selection of flavors, from sweet to savory to everything in between. They definitely didn't skimp on anything. There were fresh fruit (blueberries, blackberries, oranges, and strawberries), candied almonds, two types of meat, 4-5 types of cheese (even one that tasted like cheesecake!), honeycomb, peas, dried fruit, pickles, and chocolate toffee bars. I definitely didn't expect such a good variety. Also, it was SO pretty. Definitely something I would purchase as a gift or for an occasion. DELIVERY/SERVICE: I selected the pickup, but they were nice enough to deliver my board. Communication was fast and responsive.

    Beautiful charcuterie boxes. My husband and I enjoyed their chocolate covered strawberries and a Date Night charcuterie box for Valentine's Day. Presentation is gorgeous and everything tastes delicious - the fruit is ripe, the cheeses and other goodies are soo tasty, and the edible flower on top is too cute. It was just the right amount of food for two people. Definitely recommend giving them a try!

    Stopped by stems today for their soft opening and was completely blown away! They are sharing a space at Waverly and it's the cutest space! They have food items like sandwiches, Charcuterie boxes and other yummies you can buy there. I ended up getting one of their sandwiches, pasta salad and a lemonade. Also got a free cookie for stopping by today. Roasted Chick sammie- 10/10 Sandwich was just the perfect size to go along with other items I got. Chicken was moist and whatever jam was in the sandwich put it just over the top. Was amazing! Pasta Salad - 9/10 Great salad! Pasta, tomatoes, corn, chopped onion. Was a great mix along with the dressing. I honestly didn't think it was going to be anything new, but this was so good! It was all a dream lavender lemonade-10/10 I am a sucker for all things lavender and this lemonade didn't disappoint! Right amount of lavender and sweetener. Was so refreshing! They also have a few accessories for sale along with some of their favorites items from cheese to cheese tools. I am definitely coming back!

    Super Bowl Party tray

    We ordered a Stems charcuterie platter to be delivered to my parents on Super Bowl Sunday. This lovely tray was delivered on time for all the pre-game festivities -- it wasn't just a great-looking tray, but all the items were so delicious. Really good quality food and we were so happy with the entire transaction. Thank you so much!!

    Assorted breads and crackers

    This was the second time we ordered from Stems, and they did not disappoint! The charcuterie board and chocolate-dipped strawberries were delicious and beautifully presented. Everyone wanted to know where we ordered these amazing goodies from. In addition, delivery was smooth and right on time. My daughter's birthday pool party was a huge success, mainly due to your incredible food! Thank you!!

    Fresh, beautiful grazing table for a daytime event. My photography unfortunately doesn't do this masterpiece justice!

    I don't know where to begin! There is no limit to the beauty of Kaiy's artistry, the personal touch she puts into everything she does and the love she has for feeding people, in body and spirit. The grazing boards she creates are pure magic, down to every detail! Her kind yet no-nonsense demeanor makes her an absolute joy to work with. She really, truly wants to make your experience special. Oh! And grazing boards and charcuterie are only fraction of what she does! I've had the pleasure of tasting her catered lunches and event offerings and everything is always, always swoon-worthy to the palate as well as the eyes. Just call her, people--prepare to be dazzled.

    The most heavenly queso and beans!

    I've been working with Stems for a few years now. I've been a professional FOODIE, special events producer and overall obsessed with passionate people who provide 6+ star service. I have way too many photos to post, but you'll have to place an order to taste for yourself. The vision, menu design and ingredients that goes into each event is anything less than stellar. She makes the impossible happen, and I can't rave enough about her soul. I choose to intertwine myself with people who care and give amazing memories for any occasion, no matter how large. Call Kaiy, you'll be in the best hands

    If you are looking for authentic Korean food that tastes exactly like the home-cooked meals at a…read morefamily party, you have to try Nak Won Catering. As a Korean, I can tell you this is the real deal--it's so freaking delicious and exactly the type of food I grew up with. A few things to know before you order: No Storefront: This is a catering-only business, so there is no physical restaurant to visit. You just call them to place your order. The Right Number: Make sure you call the correct number! Their main lines are (323) 466-3737 or (323) 799-7909. Customizable Menus: While they have menu photos online that act as a guide, you can pick and choose exactly what you want. We ordered the Kalbi Jjim, various veggies, pancakes, and kimchi, and every single dish was a hit. Massive Portions: They are incredibly generous! We ordered for 10 people, but they gave us enough food to feed 40. You definitely get your money's worth. Easy Pickup: The process is super smooth. You just pull up to the street on Beverly Blvd, and they will load everything directly into your car for you. Pro Tip: Ask about getting a discount ;) Also when you arrive to pick up, give them a 15 minute window to assemble your order. They have a delivery option too. I will definitely be using them again for my next event!

One item was the sweet and sour pork whose sauce was packaged separately, which was great as some people like to dip instead of having it already mixed in. Guests commented really enjoying the bulgogi, green beans, fried sweet potato, dessert combo (red bean sesame ball and candied potatoes). I agree with other customers that there is more than enough food to cover any guest count. Overall great value with thorough satisfaction in price and convenience. I would definitely use them again for my next Korean catering event.

He responds quickly and the booking process is seamless. This time around our server was Jorge. He arrived early and set up all the food and equipment in an orderly and beautiful fashion.

And let me not forget to mention, the food was 10 out of 10! Slam dunk! Touchdown! The food was well seasoned and prepared with care and love. All our guests had seconds and even took food home. They were all very happy and eagerly shared how delighted they were with the food quality. Thank you, Ask 4 Tacos Catering for helping us celebrate all the beautiful ladies for Mother's Day!!

The veggie fajitas, beans, rice, and salsas presented great options for the vegetarians/vegans in your group. I felt the price was just right for a party of 35 people. I will continue to work with Ask 4 Tacos every chance I get. Give them a try!

    This review is long overdue! We had Hungry Bear cater our wedding this year and they absolutely…read morecrushed it!! We had so many guests come up to us during and after the wedding (even months later) saying the food was the best they've ever had at a wedding. Everything from the passed apps to the mains, desserts, and late night food was amazing. Food is a huge priority for us, and we wanted to make damn sure that our wedding food delivered, especially since so many of our friends and family know us as major foodies. We loved Hungry Bear's asian-fusion menu and even the salad was unreal (and I'm not a salad girl...get the Little Gem Salad y'all - it's both beautiful and delicious). We had opted for family style and had hangar steak and miso black cod for the mains (but seriously, you cannot go wrong with any of their choices) and a late night pho station. I'm salivating just reminiscing about the food. The drinks were just as good (feel free to reach out to the team with your favorite flavors/ spirit to brainstorm drink ideas or even give them a specific recipe). I opted for a yuzu gin cocktail as my signature drink, which was delightfully refreshing and very well made. On top of that, the service was next-level. The waiters and bartenders were all very kind, funny, and professional. The team made sure my husband and I were constantly taken care of--full water glasses, plates of food, cocktails, everything. One of my best friend has celiac disease, and a staff member came up and told her she was personally "in charge of her" for the night. She was blown away. I was blown away -- especially since we had our wedding at a "bring your everything" venue where everything was brought in to build a "kitchen" - Hungry Bear made sure that food safety/ cross-contamination was a non-issue. Amazing food, amazing drinks, and genuinely kind, fun, and professional servers and bartenders. Jennie, TJ, and the Hungry Bear team truly go above and beyond. We're already asking ourselves when we can have Hungry Bear cater our next event. Look no further and book your tasting today (trust me, and good luck narrowing down the tasting selections)! Highly, highly recommend.

I'm not exaggerating - 10/10. We got so much positive feedback from our guests about how good everything was. The servers and chefs were all really friendly and knew what they were doing. Their menu has so many options to choose from, which I loved. We went with 6 tray-passed appetizers and honestly, every single one was delicious. I'll definitely be using them again for future events. Can't recommend Hungry Bear enough!

We wanted to go with the bossam (pics look so good) but our event was held after lunchtime/light bites so we opted for the taco bar, which was also amazing. Nonstop compliments from friends and family regarding the food. Presentation was just lovely too. Hard to accomplish great taste, price, authenticity, AND presentation but Chubby Fingers rocked it all. Other items ordered that I didn't get good photos of (all was v delicious): - Yuzu tomato salad (so refreshing, wish I could make this at home) - Gochujang glazed veggies - Elote - Japchae P.S. I'm just remembering how wonderful the tacos were, especially the tortilla. Corn and soft, this is NOT your typical grocery store purchase. I think they source it from a legit Latina market. That's what I mean by authenticity. For all our dishes, they got both Korean and Mexican cuisines right. Chubby Fingers brings the real deal.

    Best decision for our Reception/Baby Shower! (Incredible value & taste)…read more Chubby Fingers catered our event and it was absolutely wonderful! OMG... as I'm writing this, I'm still craving the food we had that day from Chubby Fingers! After doing multiple tastings with other caterers, we chose them for their generous portions and amazing value at a very competitive price point. Why we chose them: Before choosing them, we actually met with several other caterers and even did tastings to compare our options. What really stood out about Chubby Fingers was how generous and abundant their offerings were at a very similar price point. The value honestly surprised us in the best way. The Experience (Catering Drop-off): We ended up doing a catering drop-off, and even with that setup, you could truly feel the care and thought they put into everything. The presentation was beautiful and everything was packed so nicely -- it still felt very special and intentional. The Food (The highlight of our day!): On the day of the event, the food completely exceeded our expectations. Everything was fresh, beautifully presented, and full of flavor. Our guests kept complimenting the food throughout the event, and several people even came up to ask where we found the caterer because they wanted the information for their own events. Our Menu Highlights: 1. Chubs Bossam: Slow-roasted caramelized pork shoulder with ssam bar (perilla leaves, lettuce, and samjang). Absolute hit! 2. Japchae: Korean sweet potato glass noodles with mushrooms and vegetables. 3. Gochujang Glazed Veggies: Roasted market vegetables with a subtle, delicious gochujang glaze. 4.Yuzu Tomato Salad: Heirloom tomatoes with greens and a refreshing yuzu vinaigrette (so fresh!). and the White Rice was included! The team was professional, responsive, and genuinely cared about making our day special. I'm so sad I didn't take more photos, I was so busy hosting and enjoying the event, but the presentation in person looked even better than the photos!) If you're planning an event, do yourself a favor and book Chubby Fingers--you won't regret it! I truly can't recommend them enough if you want to impress your guests!
