Private Party Catering

Private party catering at home

Private party catering in Los Angeles for birthdays, anniversaries, showers and backyard dinners, so you can host instead of cooking.

Host, do not cook

A party where the host gets to sit down

Most LA parties happen at home: in a backyard in Gardena, on a deck in Hermosa Beach, by a pool in Rolling Hills Estates or in a Westside apartment with a view. Private party catering in Los Angeles lets the host enjoy those nights. We deliver and set up a buffet that is labeled and ready, or send a staffed team that serves, refills, clears plates and leaves the kitchen cleaner than it was.

Menus fit the crowd. A fortieth birthday might call for passed bites and a taco station, a baby shower for salads, sandwiches and a dessert table, an anniversary dinner for a plated meal at a long table outside. We size portions to your headcount, label anything with common allergens, and plan around the realities of a home: a small kitchen, limited outlets, street parking and neighbors who appreciate a quiet load-out.

Party formats

However you like to host

Drop-off buffets

Hot and cold dishes delivered in disposable or chafing setups, arranged and labeled on your table, ready to eat by the time you open the gate for the first guests.

Staffed parties

Servers who refill, bus plates and clean up the kitchen afterward, so the host spends the night with guests and not at the sink. Leftovers are wrapped and left in your refrigerator.

Backyard dinners

Long-table dinners outside under string lights, served family-style or plated, for birthdays and anniversaries that deserve a proper sit-down meal. Grilled menus are covered under BBQ catering.

Showers & brunches

Salads, sandwiches, quiche, fruit and dessert boards for baby and bridal showers and late-morning gatherings, arranged so the spread looks good in photos too. Mimosa-friendly pairings are easy to plan.

Birthdays & anniversaries

Passed bites, food stations and a cake-cutting plan for milestone birthdays and anniversaries, from 15 guests in a living room to well over a hundred in the yard.

Casual menus

Crowd-pleasing dishes that fit most parties and most budgets: sliders, pasta, tacos, salads and desserts. Browse the casual catering menu for ideas before you call.

Private Party FAQ

Common questions

Do you need to use my kitchen?

Usually very little. We arrive with food ready to serve and our own holding equipment, and only use counter space or an oven if you offer it.

Can staff stay to clean up?

Yes. Staffed parties include clearing plates, breaking down the buffet and tidying the kitchen before we leave.

Which parts of Los Angeles do you cater?

We cater across four regions of LA County: the South Bay, the Palos Verdes Peninsula, the Westside and coast, and South Los Angeles. Every community we cover is listed on our service areas page.

Do you provide staff, setup and equipment?

Yes. Drop-off orders arrive set up and labeled. Full-service events add uniformed staff, chafing and serving equipment, help coordinating rentals, and cleanup after the last guest eats.

Can you accommodate dietary restrictions?

Yes. Any menu can be adjusted for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free and allergy-conscious guests, with each item labeled. See vegan and special diets catering.
