We highly recommend Le's Catering for their incredible work at our wedding! Their attention to detail, professionalism, and delicious food blew us away.Our guests are still raving about the meal, saying it was some of the best wedding food they have ever had. The star of the show is the sea bass. Many of our guests are still talking about it a week later! The soft shell crab salad, green beans, and beef were also major stand outs. The appetizers and late-night bites (we opted for boba and popcorn chicken) were also big hits amongst our guests. We had so many people comment on how fresh, flavorful, and juicy the dishes were. Le's Catering went above and beyond to ensure our vision was brought to life, accommodating dietary preferences and helping to adjust the menu to perfectly match our style and theme.Not only was the food outstanding, but the service was impeccable. Amy and her team were courteous, efficient, and made sure everything ran smoothly throughout the wedding. We felt completely at ease knowing they had everything under control. From our first email, Amy (and partner Christina) were extremely friendly, helpful, and more than willing to assist with our needs. Throughout the entire process, they guided us with ideas and suggestions that helped make our special night a reality.If you're looking for a caterer who will go the extra mile to make your special day unforgettable (as well as serve some of the best food - no joke) look no further than Le's Catering. Thank you Amy and team for making our wedding day so memorable--we couldn't be happier with how everything turned out! No words short of amazing. 5/5 stars without a doubt!!

I cannot sing enough high praises for Le's Kitchen! Their food is absolutely phenomenal, including both the hors doeuvres and the dinner. Every single item on our menu was made to perfection. I experienced their food at another wedding a couple of years ago and I knew instantly that I wanted to them cater my wedding when the time came. Our guests could not stop talking about how much they enjoyed the food, both the day of and the days that followed! Not only does Le's Kitchen deserve 5 stars for their food, but their service as well. Everyone on staff was extremely professional, friendly, and attentive! Christina is also so great to work with. Communication with her was so easy and efficient. She was also super flexible to customize to our needs, which we really appreciated!If you're looking for authentic Chinese food for your wedding or event, I highly highly recommend Le's Kitchen!

We hired Le's Kitchen for our wedding this past weekend and felt the need to write this review real quick (and I rarely write reviews). My wife and I thought delicious Asian-styled food was extremely important for our friends and family to have on our big day since we love eating, and they DELIVERED. Everything from the appetizers to the main courses to the late-night bites (boba + popcorn chicken) was absolute fire. We already knew from our initial tasting (which was an intimate and awesome experience in itself), but it was awesome to hear so many of our guests complimenting that they also enjoyed dinner so much.That's just the food, Christina and the team were also so crucial throughout the whole wedding planning process. From quick and helpful responses to setting up everything beautifully and their hospitality on the night of the wedding, I could not ask for a better caterer. The only downside (when we were looking for caterers) was that they are pretty booked up during popular wedding months, so make sure to request dates very early on!

After our wedding, we have heard from so many of our friends and family that Le's Kitchen provided some of the best food they have ever had at a wedding! It was a high priority for us to have Chinese/Vietnamese style food even though our venue was at a winery, and Le's Kitchen fulfilled exactly what we were looking for.We ordered the passed hors d'oeuvres, classic family style banquet menu, and added on honey walnut prawns as an additional dish. Some particular favorites of our guests included the soft shell tempura crab and the honey glazed soy sea bass.Communications with Christina from Le's Kitchen in the months leading up to our wedding were frequent, smooth, and very supportive. They made it easy to deal with last minute guest changes, dietary restrictions, vendor meals, and were very accommodating and flexible with our large guest count (300+ guests).We would highly recommend Le's Kitchen to anyone seeking to have delicious Asian style food at their wedding or event!

Le's Kitchen was the highlight of our wedding, and there were many highlights! We worked primarily with Christina, so it was fun to be liaising with another Christina hah.From the beginning:* The tasting -- super convenient / affordable setup (group tasting with other couples, where we could try the whole menu). We knew we wanted to work with Le's after this, and which hors d'ourves we wanted.* Communication prior to the wedding -- Christina was incredibly responsive and professional. Everything felt like a well oiled machine, email communications were timely and well organized, and contracts/details were easy to follow. * Bartending service -- We wanted a BYOB + bartender option, and Le's had the perfect offering for us. We came up with two signature cocktails, and Christina was patient as I asked endless questions and made adjustments to the recipe. They pre-batched the cocktails for faster service, and guests raved about both of the cocktails as well as the other drinks that we offered. Christina also checked in on the strength of a coffee cocktail we had, and we were able to make adjustments on the fly as needed. * During the wedding -- Cocktail hour, dinner service, and late night snacks/boba were all delicious. In particular, as the couple, we were continuously fed throughout the night, and Christina would bring drinks / food directly to us. I felt so cared for and attended to, unlike stories of other weddings where couples mentioned not having a chance to eat. The highlight was probably the fish, but honestly everything we had was fantastic. The only issue was that I was so stuffed so I barely had a chance to try the cake and chicken at the end of the night hah. They also prepared leftovers for us to enjoy some of our food after the wedding, which I'm super excited about. Would 100% recommend Le's Kitchen for weddings!

I hired Le's kitchen to cater for my wedding and I couldn't have asked for a better caterer. Working with their team was easy and the food they produced was impeccable!! We ordered the six course banquet dinner with appetizers. It was all an Asian-fusion menu. Our guests heavily complemented the food with some saying that it was the best wedding food they ever had. We highly recommend going with Le's kitchen for big events as they truly deliver. Would totally hire them again if given the chance.

My partner and I have had our fair share of dry chicken breast at other weddings, so we were determined to have something different at our own. As Asian-Americans, this Pan-Asian caterer immediately caught our eye. Steamed buns? Banh mi? Garlic noodles, Popcorn chicken and Boba?? We were nervous before our tasting that Le's was too good to be true. We are pleased to report however that Le's is legit! Could the flavors and seasoning be a little stronger? Maybe. But the taste is right and the food's still yummy, while being more approachable to non-adventurous palates. Despite delays in our schedule, Le's tasted fresh at our wedding. Our Vietnamese and Filipino families were very happy, and our other Asian friends said it was the best wedding food they've ever had. I would also like to say that my parents call me "Miss Boba", and I would give both the milk tea and taro milk tea an A+.While the flavors and quality of the food are indeed impressive, I found myself even more impressed by the way Le's operates. We were in contact with Amy prior to the wedding, and always received quick and thorough replies. The amount of detail required to plan a wedding can feel paralyzing at times, but Amy made this as painless as possible. I could easily see this process becoming a nightmare with a different caterer! As mentioned earlier, events were pushed back quite a bit, but Le's was still able to make our family-style dinner work. (This usually requires a specific length of time.) I also heard that servers approached guests who listed food sensitivities, and kept them informed as food arrived at each table. The service provided the day of our wedding was truly top-notch. We are so grateful to have worked with Le's, and couldn't have asked for a better caterer. We can't recommend them enough. Thanks again for everything!

We cannot thank Amy, Christina, and the LCK team enough for the amazing food and service at our wedding at Villa Montalvo a few weeks ago. Navigating through wedding planning was challenging at times because everything was so new to us. Amy and Christina are excellent communicators, answering every email and question we had with such great detail. From table layouts, linens, food choices, and even the timeline of the day, they were very patient with us as they guided us with every step of the way. We are so impressed by their organization skills and reliability when it comes to email communication. This really helped us prepare for every detail in advance, especially with their advice and input which we greatly appreciated. We were able to have our tasting in advance; this was a wonderful experience because the setting was so beautiful and Christina was able to answer any questions we had in person. We were able to see the glassware / tabletop options at the tasting as well, which really helped us make decisions. Weeks leading up to the wedding, we felt very confident that we were in great hands because of the concise communication and clear plan that we had for the wedding day. The LKC team took care of the pre-ceremony refreshment table, cocktail hour appetizers + open bar, and the dinner reception / cake. Amy even brought appetizers to our bridal suite before the ceremony so that we could enjoy ourselves beforehand. They executed all of these flawlessly and followed everything according to plan. The most amazing part of our experience with LKC was that everyone raved about every single dish. Guests said everything was cooked perfectly and people were impressed that our food was so good considering that they were not dining at a restaurant and at a venue with a kitchen instead. LKC is very familiar with Villa Montalvo which is why they are so great at what they do at this venue. We thoroughly enjoyed our dinner at our wedding; it was such a special feeling to finally be able to eat our wedding meal on our wedding day. We opted to do family style meals with tables of 8; each table had plenty of leftovers to take home and the LKC team provided boxes for guests to box up their food which we really appreciated. Overall we highly recommend the LKC for your catering services. Planning and working with a team with excellent communication really helped us feel confident that our wedding day would be a success. Food meant a lot to us for our wedding day for guests to enjoy and we are so thrilled to say that the LKC team exceeded every expectation that we had. Thank you Amy, Christina, and the LKC team!

Working with Le's Kitchen for our wedding this past weekend was a no brainer!My husband (!!) and I got married at Villa Montalvo in Saratoga. It's a complicated venue- every part of the wedding (ceremony, cocktail hour, reception) was in a different area and required a different set-up. Not to mention the fact that, since we were expecting some rain, we had to switch up the floor plan at the very last minute. Le's Kitchen rolled with the punches and never once did they push back on all the last-minute tweaks. Their positive attitude and willingness to go the extra mile really meant a lot to us during this hectic time.We knew we wanted to do asian food for our wedding, but at the same time, we wanted something classy and elevated to fit our venue. Surprisingly, there aren't that many options in the Bay Area, so we're so grateful for Le's Kitchen for being the caterer of our dreams! Now on to the food-For hors d'oeuvres, we chose the: House Special Golden Rolls (my fave), Hawaiian Poke on Shrimp Chips (another fave), Petite Chicken "Banh Mi," andLemongrass Beef Patties Wrapped in Pepper Leaves For dinner, we went with the Classic 6-Course Banquet Menu, served family style. This included: Soft-shell Tempura Crab Salad, Peking Roast Chicken, Chinese Vegetables with Japanese Mushroom, Wok-fried Filet Mignon, Honey Glazed Soy Seabass (HUGE hit), Wok-fried Garlic Noodles.For a late-night snack, we got popcorn chicken which was passed around in easy-to-eat snack-sized bags. We're still getting comments from guests saying this was the best food they've had at a wedding period. Even our hard-to-impress Chinese family members were impressed with the food! The menu is truly a perfect blend of traditional asian cooking but with a modern, elevated twist. We 100% trust in the Le's Kitchen team and can't recommend them enough. We appreciate y'all!

I was first introduced to Le's Kitchen Catering 12 years ago when they catered for my sister's wedding. I remembered my sister having an amazing experience with them. Ava was so friendly and flexible. The food was delicious. My relatives would rave on and on about the food until this day. They were one of the few catering services who could blend traditional Vietnamese food but with a modern twist. My parents are very picky when it comes to catering at weddings. They approved of Le's Kitchen so I knew that I would need to hire them again when I got married. Fast forward 12 years later, it was now my turn to get married. Since they are so popular, we had to book them about a year in advance. I had an exceptional experience working with Amy and Christina. Both were very professional and understanding especially during the times when my guest count kept changing. Weddings are always busy so my husband and I weren't able to sit down and eat much since we were busy mingling with our guests. Amy made sure to pack us warm food (not leftovers) so we could enjoy it on our own time. We were so grateful for her. The popcorn chicken and boba were a hit with my guests. Sadly, it all ran out before I could get my hands on it. That made me happy because at least my guests were enjoying the food. My guests gave such positive feedback. In conclusion, I would definitely recommend Le's Kitchen Catering for your catering needs. You won't regret this decision.
