Very easy to work with and did an excellent job. They delivered what they said, on time, and cleaned up spotlessly.

I would absolutely recommend Lisa's Bon Appetit! The food was a huge hit, Jenna and her team were efficient and professional in both the setup and breakdown of the whole event, they just helped to make our wedding amazing and everything went so smoothly. Jenna was also extremely flexible and such a champ with my food indecisiveness! Do yourself a favor and use Lisa's Bon Appetit for your wedding! Thanks guys!!!

I had the best experience working with Louis Palacios catering manager for Lisa's Bon Appetit. Louis took care of all the details for my event. Also, the food was delicious and fresh and the presentation was outstanding!

My husband & I are so glad we chose Lisa’s for our wedding day! They were professional, timely, and worked well with our budget. We initially had Alicia as our head server; but since the company offers event coordinating services, we agreed to move her over to day-of coordinator and have Jenna as our head server. We were really happy with our decision as both ladies were such a pleasure to work with. Most importantly, our guests absolutely LOVED the food. The bartending and serving staff members provided by LBA were wonderfully polite and attentive, putting us at ease. They also didn’t charge us a cake-cutting fee when we brought in a cake from an outside vendor, which was very convenient for us. I’d highly recommend hiring LBA for any event!

I have used Lisa's for years and always have Louis book my events. Whether big or small, every event and order is delicious and the customer service is, by far, the very best!! Louis always makes the best recommendations and his professionalism and aplomb reflect well on Lisa's Bon Appetit. They are my go to for any and all events!!

Be sure to go talk with them, don't base your decision completely on the internet! Heather was my contact and she knew exactly how to make my husband's birthday party a success!!! The servers were great! And the food - yum!! I received so many compliments on both!
