My wife and I hired Kitchenina to cater our wedding in May of 2026 and we are so so grateful that we did so! First off, we enjoyed our tasting a lot and had a lot of nice conversations with Aliki and Chef Kostas. We really appreciated how attentive, flexible, and professional they both were. We had a few dietary requests and they accommodated those things with such ease and simplicity. Finally, the FOOD at our wedding was amazing. We really enjoyed the lemon garlic chicken and tri tip and had guests running back to the line to get seconds. I would most definitely hire them again, they were wonderful!

"Kitchenina catered our wedding earlier this month, and they knocked it out of the park! The food was delicious, and the service was spectacular. We got compliments all night on how delicious the food was. It was also easy to put together a selection (we served dinner buffet style) that had plenty of vegetarian/vegan and gluten-free options. We saw several guests go back for seconds, including one of our vegan guests.
Even before the event, Kostas and Aliki were incredibly helpful. They helped us settle on our menu and gave us other pointers and tips to make our day go smoothly. In addition to the meal, they also set up our dessert table (we rented dessert stands from them).
We would highly recommend them for any and all events."
