This bakery, with its wonderful baker-owners, Julia and Ian, is probably the best thing to happen…read morein YV since we first moved up into Burns Canyon 17 years ago. The bread, pastries (sweet and savoury!), cookies, cake (carrot!) and then also their amazing sandwiches, well, it is all to die for. During my 40+ minute drive down from the canyon I am thinking the whole time, 'What should I get today?' And so looking forward to eating it. About the sourdough bread (everything here is sourdough of course)... I have been baking sourdough bread, using the same starter, for the last 16 years (along with waffles and pancakes and biscuits) -- inspired by what I first found at San Francisco's Tartine and soon after at Luna -- and Luna's bread continues to inspire me (I wish I could bake it so perfectly every time). If you are in YV, Joshua Tree, Pioneertown (on your way to and from Pappy and Harriet's maybe?) and vicinity, do not miss the opportunity to visit Luna Sourdough Bakery.

A very cute place. This was on our list during our Joshua Tree weekend, and stopped by on our way…read moreback to LA. We got the smoked salmon sandwich and the brie and jam on a sourdough roll. Ok. I can't believe I'm gonna say this (because who complains about too much food), but. There was way too much brie. Like, it was a whole brick o' brie in it. Just...too much. I think it would have been perfect with like, half of it. Again, I can't believe I'm complaining about generosity, but there you have it. Hey Luna, trying to save y'all some resources (or something). Otherwise, things were delicious, as expected. Their water container, which I guess has an intricate filtration system, takes a LONG time to filter water after it's filled. We parked on the street, as the parking lot was very small, but there is plenty of street parking. Bathroom is singular, single-stalled, and not gendered.

We've finished all the leftovers and are craving more. It was seriously spectacular! We showed up with all the standard wedding catering challenges. Large party, dietary restrictions, tight budgets, big ambitions and a desire for everything to be *perfect.* Merilee walked us through the entire process with calm professionalism, talking us through options, listening to our ideas and sharing her extensive expertise. We narrowed it down to two equally delicious sounding menus and made the final call after an AWESOME tasting. Every single thing we tried was scrumptious! We left that night genuinely excited to share this feast with our guests and full of confidence that the final event would be a success. But the wedding exceeded even those stellar expectations. The food, presentation, service and staff were all simply flawless. It's no surprise that Merilee was recommended by our wedding venue, our welcome party venue and every local wedding planner we interviewed. Mojave Monaco is both beloved and respected by everyone who has had the pleasure of working with them. They are consummate professionals who treat everyone involved with real consideration, who take tremendous pride in their work and are committed to delivering excellence in absolutely every respect. Plus they are just straight up lovely folks. If you get the chance, hire them immediately. We would again in a heartbeat. Thank you guys!

He was so thoughtful and helped me thru this whole process that I'm knew to. Everything was delicious and elaborate! He took the time to make sure everything came together just right. I want to say I seen a complaint against him as I was getting ready to write this review. I believe the lady was angry at the organization of the company and took it out on this angel of a chef. Shame on her, I feel like she was just disappointed and kept her nagetivity towards the chef. There is no way his food is bad like she is trying to say, sounds to me like she wanted free food.

Cahoots Grub provided super unique and delicious menu that had all of our wedding guests complimenting our catering well past our wedding day. The experience as a whole was just as incredible, grilling in front of everyone added an extra layer of fun to our incredible day. Their presentation of foods was equally as delish, I'm a huuuuge foodie myself and absolutely loved having such a unique dining experience :-) With the Cahoots team, you will not only get great communication, but a super fun team of people cooking the absolute most delicious food that will add an extra layer of magic to any special occasion!

Oh, wow! We hoped having Cahoots Grub cater for our group of eight friends would be a special…read moresurprise for them, but we weren't prepared to be totally blown away by the entire experience ourselves. We first learned about David & Meg's catering business through a social media post, and the asado-style bbq looked so cool, but we weren't sure how the food would taste. They are new to the area, so there weren't tons of reviews, but the ones posted were great, so we gave them a call. From the get-go, they were quick to respond and we soon had a date and some preliminary menu ideas. After a few tweaks (we are picky eaters), they created a multi-course menu with wedge salad, branzino cooked on a cedar plank, whole-roasted chickens with chimichurri, grilled zucchini with tzatziki sauce, potatoes grilled in duck fat, really cool-looking corn ribs with a dipping sauce, flatbread that was rolled out and cooked over the fire, and apple cobbler ramekins with homemade ice cream. We are a pretty loud group, but every time a new course was put on the table, it was complete silence for a few minutes while we all were in heaven experiencing the flavor. Our friends must've thanked us 100 times and taken as many photos of the food and the cooking process and the masters at work, David and Meg. This will go down as one of the most memorable meals of our lifetime, absolutely! We were so impressed that we are already trying to book a date for January.
