Testimonials

Dear Simon, On behalf of Lewis and Zadok families, I want to tell you how totally pleased we are with you and your catering staff. The wedding was almost 4 weeks ago, and our guests are still raving about the different varieties of food, as well as the quality and the beautiful presentation. Since it was a destination wedding for almost all of our 200 guests, with people coming from Israel, England, Texas, Florida, New York, and even California, we really wanted them to have a fabulous time. They said it was a Fairy Tale wedding and everyone mentioned the extraordinary food. Thank you for all your hard work and effort that helped to make Michelle and Jonathan's wedding a true Fairy Tale.

Hiring Simon was the easiest part of planning my wedding. The variety and quality of the menu satisfied everyone- even the pickiest people I know. Simon brings glatt kosher food to life! I was impressed with the Mexican, Chinese and Japanese food stations, and of course his staple cuisine Persian food was divine. Simon took care of everything, the bar, ice sculptures, patio heaters and linen rentals. He is a one stop shop with great customer service and excellent fresh selections. My experience with Simon was so positive that I continuously refer him to family and friends. We can all agree- Simon is the BEST!!

Mr Simon, As a coordinator and party planner that I've worked on most of the weddings, Bar and Bat Mitzva along with you and your team during these 10 years, I was always one of your fan and I've always believed that you are one of the best caterer in LA. On the last wedding that I had with you I really got shocked and surprised and my believed got stronger when I saw that the wedding that suppose to have 650 guest end up to 850 people and you were prepared for them and you generously gave them the best service. The cocktail tables, fruit, sushi .....all the time were filled up by your crew constantly. The quality and quantity of the food was perfect as always. I want to say thank you for all your hard work. It is always my honor and pleasure to work with you, one of the best and professional caterers. Good Bless you and good Luck.

Simon Catering is AMAZING! Simon catered my wedding 3 weeks ago and up until even today I had people calling me and raving about how amazing his food was at the wedding. The décor, the set up, the freshness... I can go on and on. He is definitely the best kosher caterer in LA and I would definitely recommend him. He has been catering all of my family's events and not once did he disappoint. In fact, he exceeded all of our expectations each and every time. He does an amazing set up of stations for the reception and each station is more delicious than the other. The sushi station of all was by far our favorite. Don't hesitate and book Simon, you will be happy!

I got this caterer for so many events like a memorial or even a big house party. They always give extra food and the owner is Sooo nice. The food is soo delicious and tasty! People know when the food is good, it's Simon catering. Highly recommend!!

-Rachel C.

This is a long overdue review..... as the food is delicious and the service is great.

We were fortunate to have Simon cater at our wedding.  The food is Glatt Kosher and a Rabbi was present to oversee the service the whole night.  At first we were concerned that the food would not be ready as our wedding was on Saturday night.  Simon's crew were present shortly after the Shabbat was over, and they were able to get the initial food served before the Chuppah.  

My wife and I didn't have the time to eat, as we were enjoying the wedding itself.  Nonetheless, we kept on hearing our guests commenting on the food and the music throughout the night.  

Besides the fresh and tasty food served by Simon, we kept on hearing that there was always plenty of food on the tables.  As per our family members who recommended Simon to begin with, he did not fail to deliver food throughout the night.  There was plenty to eat, and we never ran out of food.  Also the food is cooked at the venue itself (outside); thus, I'm assuming it's as fresh as it can get.  At the end of the night, we were given all the food that was left, and for that our family needed three cars for loading.  Needless to say, it took us a week to spread the food as it was a lot. 

Most importantly, I was really relieved by the diligent care given by Simon and his crew.  Simon was present at the wedding the whole time.  Besides him was the Rabbi who made sure the food was served to Kosher standards.  

I would highly recommend him to anyone who'd like to have Kosher food at their engagements, weddings, or other events.

We recently attended a friend's wedding and were really impressed with the delicious food. 

The food would've been considered delicious by anyone's standards (Persian food) but the real shocker was that not only was the food great (and beautiful presentation, like salads in cocktail glasses, sushi display and an impressive tea and pastry area with tons of variety and beautiful fresh fruits and choux pastry with rosewater filling my favorite!) BUT IT WAS ALL GLATT KOSHER. It was raining so I think they had some issues with getting things out on time (main meal served VERY late, even by PST - Persian Standard Time - some guests had left by the time dinner was served) but when it finally came out it was wonderful food. I wish I had more of it to eat right now!

If you are having an event and are in need of a Kosher caterer, contact Simon caterer and see if they meet your requirements. Some of the best Kosher food I've had EVER!

I do not know about the pricing or how pleased our friends who got married were with the caterer, but we were happy to attend!

-Maribeth H.

Simon was the best choice for our kosher wedding in Los Angeles. His food was delicious, he works fast, and the setup was beautiful. The guests were thrilled with the vast selection and quality of the food. He even worked with us so to cater a Saturday night wedding, which required quite a lot of coordinating. We are so happy we chose him and highly recommend him for catering events.

We couldn't be happier!!

Simon is an amazing caterer! He catered my wedding, and I got so many complements and questions about who did the catering. When booking him, he makes it convenient and meets you at your place. He's open to suggestions of foods you want. The food is delicious, abundant, and beautiful! I'm always excited when I'm going to an event that he is catering! My family uses him for weddings in addition to other family gatherings, and we're always happy! Highly recommend!!!
