Lil' Leto Catering

Highly recommend for your next event! Guests could not stop raving about the steak! Not only is the food delicious, but the Lil' Leto team is outstanding.

We had the pleasure of working with this company this past weekend. Top notch service and food! They are very organized and have great communication. I highly recommend them!

Lil' Leto Catering is as good as they come! Michael and his staff were professional, on-time, flexible, and communicative throughout the entire evening from start to finish. In addition, my clients & I both had a great experience with him during the planning process where he was incredibly helpful and willing to answer any and all questions. As a wedding planner, I will absolutely be recommending Lil' Leto to more of my couples. If you are in need of catering for your event look no further!

An amazing 10/10 multi-course meal by Chef Michael and Lil'Leto staff for a group of nearly 100. Absolutely delicious food, professional staff, and organized execution for the big day. Michael is easy to work with- he communicates well and is helpful in guiding the many possibilities to serve a group of this size. If you need a delicious meal, for any event, of any size…handled by a professional and reliable caterer … look no further, this is your guy!

From our first meeting with owner Michael, we knew we'd be in for a great experience. He took his time to get to know our tastes and design the perfect menu for us as a couple and that our friends and family would enjoy. He was very responsive throughout the process and made everything effortless. On the day-of, we got so many compliments on the food - everything was fresh and delicious. But the best part was Michael and his team of professionals. They did an amazing job and we look forward to working with them again - highly recommended!

I am a professional photographer and have had the pleasure of working with some incredible caterers! Lil’ Leto is one of the best!!! Delicious food and the chef/team were friendly and professional. HIGHLY RECOMMEND ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Let me start by saying Lil' Leto Catering is the best of the best. The food is amazing, the chefs and staff are wonderful, and they left the kitchen so clean it was like they were never there. We hired Michael Leto to cater our wedding for 60 people at our house. Being the bride, I was locked up in my bedroom before the ceremony and could the chefs in the kitchen talking, laughing, and singing. It was awesome! The food was fantastic and we received compliments from everyone who attended about how the steak melted in their mouth. The staff literally found my husband and down a dirt road into a field to deliver us appetizers while we were taking pictures. AMAZING FOOD and AMAZING SERVICE. I will without a doubt be using them again for any catering needs we have in the future! Oh and forgot to mention they are very fairly priced!!

Words cannot truly say what an amazing job Lil’Leto Catering did for my Wedding! It was also amazing how many of my guest had huge compliments for their food, which was awesome. They made it so easy to not have to worry about what was going on and was everything taken care of, because the team had everything handled from the moment they showed up until the time they walked out the door. How Blessed I was to hire them. 💛

Michael did a spectacular job of catering my daughter’s wedding. The food was excellent and the service was outstanding! I’m still receiving comments from guests noting how delicious the food was and how friendly the Lil’ Leto team was. Michael and his crew did an amazing job of catering as well as stepping in and helping when help was needed. They used my kitchen and grills and made sure everything was wonderfully clean before leaving. Michael and his crew are a top notch team! I highly recommend Lil’ Leto Catering!

Michael and his staff are nothing short of exceptional! Food was amazing and service was top notch. Made sure everyone had what they needed and did everything with a smile. Highly recommend!

Michael Leto and his crew catered a friend's bridal shower that I attended. I was so impressed; they were my first choice to cater our wedding ceremony dinner. The food was outstanding along with the signature margaritas. The servers were very friendly and attentive to our guests and their needs. The kitchen was left meticulously clean as if they weren't even there! The planning with Michael Leto and communication up to the event, was prompt and professional. I highly recommend Lil' Leto Catering and will use them again without hesitation!

The food was unique and delicious, and all of our guests thought so too! They even made sure to prepare appetizer plates that they delivered to us right away, as we were having our pictures taken! That way, we didn’t miss out on any of the food! The whole team was very warm and professional.

I’m a wedding photographer in the Phoenix valley and have had my fare share of experience with wedding/catering vendors and when I tell you Lil’ Leto’s Catering is the best… they are the BEST IN THE VALLEY!! I’ve never had food as tasty as theirs for all the weddings I’ve shot! I’ve added them to my vendor list for all my brides and am excited to work with them again for future weddings! :)

Very friendly catering company. Food was excellent and ate every single bite of their asparagus and sweet potatoes. Their wait staff were always there with drinks and appetizers. I would highly recommend these guys if your looking for catering for your wedding.

Michael, Ryan and the Lil’Leto team were fantastic and helped make our wedding extra memorable. Very good previous reviews, their extensive and mouthwatering menu, and competitive pricing caught our attention, and the tasting hooked us. We worked with Michael to put together the perfect appetizer (scallops were particularly mind blowing!) and dinner menu (lamb chops as an additional entree were insanely good), and our guests raved about how delicious everything was. Thank you Michael and team!

Lil' Leto Catering is an incredible solution for all your events! As a wedding planner, I can personally say that catering can make or break your event, and Lil' Leto does not disappoint. Their staff is so very talented, kind, and passionate about delivering an exceptional service to their clients. I got to work with them firsthand at a wedding this past weekend and they were a joy to work with from start to finish! Kind, communicative, and even jumped in to help me out above and beyond their expected call of duty. I really loved working with them and plan to refer over and over again!

I recently met Lil’ Leto catering at a wedding and I only have wonderful things to say! Michael and his staff were super friendly and professional. The food looked and smelled absolutely delicious, like mouth-watering! If I ever need a caterer for any event, I will definitely be reaching out to Lil’ Leto Catering. HIGHLY recommend

10/10! I am so glad we found Lil' Leto Catering. The food was fabulous -- everyone loved it. Chef Eric and everyone at Lil' Leto were so kind, positive, and had a can-do attitude at my wedding. They were a joy to work with, and took it in stride when some last minute stuff came up surrounding my guests' food allergies, dietary preferences, and the functionality of my kitchen. The whole team pitched in like it was nothing, and we are so grateful. My guests left full and happy. I would recommend them to absolutely anyone!

Mike & the whole team at Lil' Leto catering were AMAZING!!! He worked closely with us to create a menu. Many guests said it was the best food they ever had at a wedding. Appetizers included arancini balls, ahi poke chips, sliders and lamb lollipops. Dinner was delicious veggie sides and fish/steak. All prepared expertly and enjoyed by everyone. Thanks Mike!!!

Michael and his staff were wonderful to work with! The food not only looked beautiful it was delicious!!!! Michael is a very talented chef and I wouldn’t hesitate to hire him again.

We are fellow vendors and had the pleasure of working with these guys last night. We have had countless meals at weddings, but let me tell you - Lil’ Leto blew most of them away! We had the HALIBUT with the Italian salsa verde. Wow. It was perfection. Can’t recommend this company highly enough. A real treat!

Just attended a wedding that they catered and the food was amazing, not to mention their crew was so fun as well! Buffet food sometimes can be a little less desirable but theirs was spot on! My kids loved it as well!

When I say that Lil Let's food is amazing, that is an understatement! Their catering is THE BEST! I worked with them for a wedding last weekend. They are professional, down to earth and honestly will make your dreams and so much more come true! I have been to quite a few weddings, and I truly can say that you will not regret hiring lil Leto!

I worked alongside Michael and his crew this weekend for a wedding in Prescott, AZ. The couple’s dream was to have an intimate ceremony followed by a lavish, multiple course dinner party with 40 of their closest family and friends. Not only did he make their dream come true, he went above and beyond! Lil’ Leto Catering was professional, on time, clean and some of the nicest people my family has ever met. Now, what you all came here for... the FOOD. Absolutely incredible. 10/10!! Following all of the bride and grooms requests, he nailed each course. I didn’t think it could get much better than the sliders and pâté served as appetizers, but it did. The home made focaccia bread melted in your mouth. I wish I had saved more room so I could have multiple servings of the main course, steak and salmon. Everything came served with a smile and a new friend. I can not wait to recommend this catering service to my future couples!

Michael & his team did an amazing job catering for our small wedding in Cave Creek, AZ. We had approximately 50 people and everyone LOVED all the food. From the fried risotto balls to the salmon & beef tenderloin for dinner, everyone had amazing things to say about everything. Michael and his staff were very professional and accommodating to our guests and made sure everyone was taken care of. We are from out of town, so didn’t do a tasting, but based on reviews, I knew the food would be excellent, it did not disappoint. Everything was AMAZING! I would definitely have them cater for us again if we are ever in the area. Thanks again Lil’ Leto Catering! :)

They were all around amazing!! They went above and beyond to make our small backyard wedding special and the food was excellent. If we have any other events we need catered they will be our first call. 😊

My wife and I hired Michael to cater our wedding. He was a pleasure to work with and made us feel at ease during the planning phase. His menu choices were tough to choose from because they all sounded so amazing. They did not disappoint! Our guests raved about the food and also about the service. They were fun and professional. His crew cooked all the food in our home and on our grill. It was very fresh and cooked to perfection. He also came by the tables as folks were eating to make sure they were all happy. Oh, and they left the kitchen spotless! I can’t say enough great things about our experience working with them. Thanks Michael!

We want to thank Michael and Lil’ Leto Catering for absolutely nailing our wedding rehearsal dinner. The menu from start to finish was filled with mouth watering show stoppers! Compliments from our guests about the flavors and presentation lasted through the weekend. We could not have asked for a better night and even better guy/company to work with. Thank you Michael and crew!

Michael was so great at communication and made sure to ask me lots of questions so that the food for our wedding was exactly how I pictured it! He and his assistant were amazing, everyone loved the food, we did tacos, and three appetizers, his homemade salsas were a huge hit! Thanks again Michael, we would reccomend him for your next event!

Lil'Leto catered my son's rehearsal dinner at our home. All 40 guests were treated to a night of incredible food and service. I want to have another party just so Michael and his crew can cater it! I can't say enough good things about Lil' Leto Catering. Their professionalism and pricing is off the charts. From the appetizers, dinner and to dessert everything was top notch.

Lil Leto’s Catering is bomb!! All of our guests kept raving about Michael’e food! My mom requested to speak to him about how fantastic it was! Bc of Covid, some of our guests didn’t show up for the reception, but that allowed for many to go for 2nd, 3rds, & 4ths. The main reason we chose Michael as our caterer is that he cooks all the food on site, not like his competitors who keep their food in warmers. And, he and his staff are super friendly and warm! I made a suggestion to have risotto instead of rice, and it definitely completed the meal. He is a professional creator in the kitchen. Just mouth-watering food. We are so grateful he catered our wedding!!!!

We hired Michael and his team the week of our wedding. Due to COVID19 our 150 guest party was reduced to 16 guests. The venue was at our home. Michael arrived while we were at the church to start cooking. Shortly after we arrived, appetizers were being served. The food was absolutely delicious! The best compliment was from the groom's Lebanese father, who called Michael a true chef! Everyone raved about each plate, with the lollipop lamb chops taking the spotlight. Once the cake came out, Tina so graciously decorated it with the flowers from our maid of honor bouquet. It was perfect! In addition, the team cleaned up, which really saved us time and effort in the days to come. We are so thankful and grateful to Lil' Leto Catering. Their warm nature and amazing talents were a wonderful addition to our special day!! We will hire them again and again!

Goodness... where should I begin? With Covid's ups and downs and uncertainties, my brother and his wife decided on a very intimate, family wedding. Although we could not celebrate with all our loved ones and friends, Lil' Leto became exactly that! Being Lebanese - we know GREAT food, good company and a damn good party! Lil' Leto was all that and then some! We licked our fingertips, begged for more and demanded a permanent residence in the Lil' Leto Catering family!! With their variety of any cultural food your little heart could desire, YOU WON'T WANT ANYONE ELSE painting your memories with such colorful flavors!

From the moment we met Chef Michael for our tasting we knew he had to be our wedding caterer. I told him my vision and he was able to bring it to fruition! We had to postpone our wedding due to COVID, and he was so understanding and flexible. With a change in date, time, venue, and guest count, he and his team rose to the occasion and provided us with the most amazing culinary experience. The food was amazing and our guests are still talking about it! Michael went above and beyond all expectations, and I will forever be grateful to him and his team for helping to make our dream a reality!

Michael and Kim Hagen's wedding was phenomenal. The food was just the comfort that we all needed in these crazy tough times. Lil Leto Catering provided so much YUM that i cant even begin to describe. When my friend Tommy Tacos found out there was a TACO BAR at the wedding... he RSVPd YES lol And he was ECSTATIC with everything he put into his mouth. The STEAK tacos were a crowd favorite! Everyone i asked about the food was raving about them. Flavorful and savory and omGgggggggg YES If i ever get married... id definitely call Mike Leto for my foods.

Michael was very helpful in planning a last minute wedding rehearsal dinner. We ended up having to pick it up and take it with us with the current pandemic situation. He had a great menu planned and easy for us to put together once we got to our destination. The food was very tasty and more than enough. His guacamole was a huge hit. Everything had his own special flavor to it. The desserts were incredible, key-lime bars and Tres Leches. I can't wait to have another event for him to cater!

I hired Michael and his team for a surprise wedding renewal. I didn’t know what food I wanted, just Italian. He was very helpful with putting together a menu and making suggestions on what food goes together and not. He was open and easy to talk to during the whole process. He was very welcoming from the beginning. The food was beyond amazing and you can tell that he takes pride when it comes to his food. I wouldn’t hesitate to hire him again! Whether for something big or small. He is an amazing chef and I am glad that I was able to work with him.

I don’t even know where to begin with Lil’ Leto Catering. Michael and his staff are soooo amazing to work with! The quality of food is superb and that is magnified in the marvelous dishes that create/serve. Everything they make is packed with flavors that compliment one another and you’re never left disappointed. Michael and his staff are incredibly professional, kind, knowledgeable, and fun to be around. You will not regret hiring them for your special day!

Michael and his staff are truly amazing! The food was absolutely delicious and just what we wanted for our wedding! Our guests couldn’t stop expressing how great the food was. Not only is Michael a great chef, but he’s also very friendly and professional. He went above and beyond just catering. By far the easiest choice for our wedding! I would highly recommend Michael and his team for any wedding or event!

We hired Michael to cater our daughters wedding and he did an exceptional job. Michael was easy to communicate with and is very professional. The food was delicious and exceeded our expectations. He provides high quality and fresh food. Our guests raved about the dishes he made. We highly recommend Michael and his team and will definitely use him again in the future.

As a wedding officiant, I am always excited to discover “what’s for dinner” at wedding receptions. At a recent small house wedding, I was pleased to meet a new to me caterer, Lil Leto. They did a great job for the couple, providing a very tasty meal and warm atmosphere which added to the celebration. I’ll be promoting them on my website as a trusted/recommended resource for other couples. #RitesofCelebration

Michael was great to work with and very professional. He stayed in contact leading up to the date of the event and was on time and organized the date of the event. The food was great!! Would highly recommend Michael.

There are not enough words to describe how wonderful Michael and his staff are! We never worried about anything. The food was unbelievably delicious, so fresh and well seasoned. (The Lamb Lollipops were a huge hit-even for those who said they didn’t like lamb!). All my friends were quizzing him for recipes! They clean up as if they were never there too! Awesome! This is our second time using Michael and it will not be the last. You cannot go wrong with Lil’ Leto Catering!

Michael and his team were great to work with!!! He communicated with us and put us at ease with regard to the menu and making sure we had enough food for everyone! His team was prompt, clean, organized, and efficient, and everyone loved the food (and we had plenty of leftovers!). I would work them again for any event!!!

Mike is the best! He made our wedding day. He served a backyard wedding of 155 people and was able to roll with anything that happened. We gave Mike an idea of what we would like and he made all the recommendations and everything was a hit from the guacatons, the sliders to the rice balls, every bite was better than the last. His food was out this world and we’ve had people texting us about how amazing everything tasted. He is extremely professional and takes all the stress out of your hands. He made sure I that myself and my husband each had a plate of appetizers delivered to us so that we would have a chance to eat. I highly recommend using him and know you won’t be disappointed.

All of the dishes taste 100% authentic and chef Michael has his own unique twist on several ingredients that make his food out of this world! Just try his macaroons, they are as close to French art as the louvre! I've eaten almost everything he's made, from porchetta to meatballs and gelato to biscotti. I highly recommend using chef Michael for any event whether it be as formal as a wedding or as casual as a Sunday barbecue!

The Lil' Leto staff was friendly, helpful, and there when we needed them throughout the event. My mother in law, a frequent party host, has requested their info to request their services for her next events.

Mike at Lil' Leto Catering was absolutely fantastic to work with! The only thing better was his food! From the apps to the main course, he knocked it out of the park. He really made out rehearsal dinner everything we had hoped for and our guests had nothing but great things to say. I'll be using Lil' Leto for all things catering in the future!

We changed our catering plan from a wedding reception to family-only dinner. Michael accommodated our changes so gracefully and the family dinner he made for us was unbelievably delicious. We leaned toward Italian comfort food, and this is where Lil Leto truly shines. Every part of our experience was fantastic and would recommend Michael and his crew for almost any event, party, or dinner with family.

Mike is amazing to work with. With all of the craziness of planning a wedding, working with him was one of the easiest parts. He sits with you and really listens to your needs and your budget, and then creates a menu from there. Once created, he takes the time to talk you through each element and allows you to make changes, however, he won't let you get excited about changes that are out of the budget - which I really appreciated. My wife is Hungarian, so Chef Mike even took the time to learn how to cook a Hungarian delicacy as one of the menu items! On top of all of this, his food tastes INCREDIBLE, and him and his team were on time and reliable. Hands down, work with Chef Leto. You will be so happy with your decision in so many ways. Now I am always trying to figure out reasons to throw parties just so I can have Chef Leto come and cook!

Last year we were fortunate enough to find Lil' Leto Catering for our wedding. Mike was great to work with the whole way through; from deciding on our menu items all the way through our reception. He was always extremely professional and easy to work with. But, all of that doesn't compare to how good the food was. It still comes up in conversation, weekly. The arancini that were served for an appetizer started the meal off perfectly and only got better from there. Since the wedding, we have had Mike cater smaller private dinners on a few different occasions. Whether he is cooking for 115 people or 6, the food is always world class.

My husband and I had the joy of working with Chef Michael Leto for our wedding reception luncheon and it was wonderful! The meal was delicious, and the service was exceptional. We couldn't have hoped for anything better. Our guests raved during the reception and for weeks after about how much they enjoyed the food. Mike prepared appetizers, the main course and desserts for us and our 115 guests. It was a great success and we would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a chef for an event. We cant wait for the next opportunity we have to higher Lil Leto Catering! Thanks, Mike!

Bottom line - you shouldn't hesitate for a second about using Lil' Leto. The food and experience were perfect. Chef Leto catered our wedding and exceeded every expectation. The truffle rice balls may have been the biggest hit of the evening and the pizza was right behind. He created an array of different pizzas for our guests and each and every one had rave reviews. The dough was so fresh and cooked perfectly and all of the toppings were top quality. His whole team was incredibly friendly and professional. Perhaps just as important, Chef Leto's team was practically invisible. There was always plenty of food available for guests and they never got in the way. We would highly recommend Chef Leto for any and all of your catering needs!
