We loved everything about Love at First Bite! I'm a big food person, so having above "meh" food was important to me, but.... so was staying on budget. To my absolute delight we came across LaFB, and they had it all! Kristen was very sweet and nice to work with, and we were really impressed with the food!! The packages and options were actually really fun to choose from, and they had cool add on's like a milk and cookie bar and and coffee bar with all the fixings! They even had really good cake, which wee would have gone with if I didn't already have my heart set on another bakery (shout out to Great Dane Baking Company!) On our big day, delivery, set up, and take down all went smoothly. Overall an affordable option for really top quality people and food!
Love at First Bite was such an incredible find! After exploring five or six other places that came back out of budget, I called Love at First Bite on a whim. From the beginning they were helpful. I live out of state so they served a sample meal to my parents when we requested to try the food. My mom fell in love immediately and Meredith helped my mom break down the menu, find other vendors, give her advice on beverage services, dance floors, and porta-pottys and just gave my mom so much peace of mind in the whole process.
Meredith was also so responsive and helpful throughout the proposals and planning. We had been let down by other companies who just stopped contacting us or not sending revisions in a timely manner. But Love at First Bite had an open correspondence from the beginning and checked in with us at each deadline.
Not only that, but the food was so good. We had it in our head that we would do most of the work but I'm so glad we left it in the hands of the pros at Love at First bite. They set out fruit and vegetable platters as well as charcuterie boards for the cocktail hour. For the main course we ordered the kebabs but chose the baked potato bar from another menu as the side that they had no problem doing. They also helped one of my dreams come true by setting up a late night macaroni bar that all of my guests are STILL talking about.
Would highly recommend Love at First Bite for any and call catering needs in the Huntington Beach area!
Meredith is such a joy to work with. We met for our tasting and she was so nice and had wonderful ideas! The food was mighty tasty as well. We are also had food trucks at our wedding so they were very flexible and helped us fill in the gaps so that our guest will be full and happy! I really feel like they are excited for my event. Meredith even offered to come to the venue with us to get a better grasp of the layout. Taking her time to come up to make things are perfect, is exactly the service I was looking for. Someone who knows how important this day is and has all the little details covered! They were a great addition to the party!
