Wonderful Team

We worked with Border Grill for our August wedding in Los Angeles, and we couldn't be happier! Working with them in the months leading up to the wedding were so easy, Taylor was super responsive and helpful in arranging everything. It was easy to get pricing and we really appreciated the transparency when getting pricing packages for different types of service. We ended up going with the taco buffet option, and we have received so many compliments on the food from our guests! On the day, the Border Grill team was prepared, professional, kind, and efficient. They helped out with all the little things like pouring water at the tables, busing cocktail glasses, and even kindly prepared plated dishes for me and my husband. We didn't have to worry about a thing for catering the entire day. The food was absolutely delicious! I highly recommend working with Border Grill for your event!

Amazing to work with!

I have worked with Broder Grill at a few weddings and they never disappoint. Taylor is great to work with, on top of communications, and flexible when it comes to changes and updates. The food is always great and the staff is on top of everything, providing a great service! Highly recommend!

Zero Regrets

The quality of food and service was just what we were looking for. We wanted quality food that people would talk about and remember. A wedding guest told us, "Wow, someone finally figured out wedding food". Food was something we were excited about and we are so happy to report that everyone loved it. The agua frescas were on point, bartending service on point, chip and guac station on point, entrees/appetizers everything was so delicious. Hire Border Grill (Taylor was the best) for quality food and service at your wedding!
