For a fun and delicious menu, a beautifully decorated unique event, solid staff and peace of mind, Mel at GourMel catering is the one call to make. Mel helped us with EVERYTHING. From menu and drink planning, to centerpieces, to rentals, to party favors, to set up/breakdown and staff and all the little details I forgot, Mel was there with ideas and all the help we needed to perfectly execute our dream wedding. No detail was spared and there was nothing I needed to worry about the day of.

YOOSHI SUSHI CATERING & EVENT PRODUCTION 

5.0

  • Starts at $2,500
  • Serves Santa Monica, CA

I had my first shot at managing a sushi restaurant when I took over an empty section of the family restaurant and introduced sushi to my customers. It was a challenge that I will never regret accepting. It was fun, a lot of fun! I had the opportunity to work with some really talented and creative chefs. I quickly learned that it’s not just about having fresh fish anymore. Sushi dining has transformed into a culture. A culture built by imagination and creativity. With the help of GD and the support of my family, I took all that experience and fused it with my imagination and created Yooshi Sushi Catering and Event Production.

Everyone loved the food and I’m looking forward to hiring this amazing sushi and event production company again!!

The food was a variety of appetizers and desserts, and the team knocked it our of the park! The celebration would not have been so wonderful without all the delicious foods they made for us, crispy Brussels sprout boats, mini quiche, homemade meatballs, mini sausage rolls, and my favorite, the Moroccan lamb burgers!!!!!! And not to mention the desserts, fairy cakes, profiteroles, yummy!!!! And so much more!!!! Their hard work, dedication, efficiency and a great eye for details... we will definitely hire them again and again, worth every penny!!!!

I can't recommend Denise and her team more. Denise catered my wedding in September and our guests couldn't stop talking about the food. The short ribs and salmon were not only delicious but cooked perfectly even when made for 150 people! Denise was also so hands on during the planning process and helped us ensure we had all the rentals we needed and provided feedback and advice which was so helpful when you are a bride who has never done this before. The staff that Denise brought the day of was also spectacular, they were kind, quick and always willing to help a guest. Her business partner Will who ran the bar was also amazing, he helped us ensure we had everything we needed and made sure lines moved during the night. If you need a caterer in the area who can provide amazing food and is just awesome to work with, definitely hire Denise!
