Carly L. Sent on 09/29/2019Thank you Bites & Bashes!
Bites & Bashes was the perfect caterer for our wedding at Los Verdes Golf Course! We could not have been happier with them.
Crystal and everyone we worked with over at Bites & Bashes were organized, responsive, friendly, and helpful. They truly go above and beyond to make sure you're happy.
Their food is delicious, and they give great advice about the best options to go with and how to display it, etc. We received so many compliments about the beautiful charcuterie display, their gorgeous serving dishes, and how great the food was.
I would recommend them 10 times out of 10. Thank you, Bites & Bashes! Can't wait to see you at the cafe soon (they have a delicious cafe you should visit also)! -

Bites and Bashes was such a pleasure to work with. We fell in love with Crystal and Julie at our first tasting, and even more so loved the food they had prepared. Not only was the food incredible, it was also beautifully displayed. The flavors were complex and interesting, and presented on beautiful service ware and topped with edible flowers which made a breathtaking spread of food. Our guests were blown away by how good the food was, crowd favorites were the vegan gluten free Vietnamese glass noodles, which came in a small Chinese food to-go box, the pulled pork sliders with slaw, candied bacon, and the truffle mac and cheese. And the wait staff were all professional and so nice! We also hired our bartenders through Bites and Bashes and they were excellent. Overall, they ensured our experience was easy, enjoyable, and the final result was perfect. And they’re prices were so much better than all the other caterers we researched. I would recommend Bites and Bashes for any event in a heartbeat! -

I am an LA-based event planner for that focuses on high-end events. I have worked with a wide variety of catering companies, but Bites & Bashes is next level. The first time I connected with Bites & Bashes they worked with me to provide a quick turnaround and blew us out of the water in terms of quality of the food and service. Luckily they had the availability to cater a last minute internal corporate reception for 75 people where they provided the most delicious passed hors d'oeuvres. In addition, we added the antipasto (picture below) which was a huge hit and incredibly stunning. The flowers came from the Chef Julie's garden which added to the magic.
The most recent event that Bites & Bashes catered was for our office holiday party at the Natural History Museum for about ~200 attendees. They were extremely patient and kind during the planning process as we had to build out an entire kitchen outside of the venue. Crystal (president) was specifically able to figure out ways to make our dream menu come to life even with all of the venue's restrictions (quick set-up/load-in times, lack of power, etc.). The Bites & Bashes team is creative and innovative. If you have a food or beverage idea for an event they will take it and make it 10x better than you could have imagined. For our holiday party, they made and served:
Passed Appetizers/ Hors d'oeuvres: Korean short rib tacos, jalapeno mac 'n' cheese bites, roasted butternut squash hummus on cucumber cups, chicken corn dogs, and crispy coconut shrimp
Interactive Food Stations: Pasta Bar, Live Action Carving Station, Sushi Bar, French Fry Bar, and a Late Night Taco Station
Drinks: festive cocktails - Naughty or Nice (margarita) and The Grinch (vodka, cucumber, pineapple, basil, lime), and an interactive old-fashioned station
If you are looking for good food, gorgeous presentation, AND fabulous service, than Bites & Bashes needed at your next personal celebration or corporate event. I cannot recommend Bites & Bashes enough! -

Carlyle Sent on 10/10/2017I found Bites & Bashes through a recommendation from a friend while I was planning my 120 person wedding at the Millwick and they turned out to be the easiest decision that I made all year. Not only is Crystal and her team professional, but they made everything surrounding the bar, food, and service a breeze. There were multiple guests who raved about the food and said it was the best wedding food they ever had. The bartenders were friendly and accommodating to the last minute change in our signature cocktails.
Even my mother, who was originally horrified we weren't having plated meals, was gushing about the "Upscale American" buffet we had with steak/pork sliders, fried chicken, seasonal market salads and grilled vegetables. On top of everything -- B&B includes all of the elegant copper serving ware and table decorations to present their food in their quotes, which saved me close to a grand when it came down to getting wedding rentals.
I have already recommended them to a few friends, and 100% would work with Crystal and her team again. They are professional, responsive, creative, and knock their work out of the park.
Tip: The thai meatballs, Butternut Squash Quesadilla, and Glass Noodles appetizers are the BEST. The watermelon and arugula salad, as well as the fried chicken, is UNREAL. -

Victoria Sent on 04/02/2019Excellent catering!
Bites and Bashes was a delicious choice for our wedding. Their menu was unique and flavorful, and I was impressed with their food presentation (especially the hors d'oeuvres!). They were pricey - it ended up costing $150 per person for catering. If it's in your budget, I highly recommend them for your big day!
