Burbank Caterers

We do historical events and it’s hard to find catering company to accommodate not only the type of food we need to served, but be with the time limits of the event. Burbank Caterers work with us to create a menu, came to see who we are and what we do, learn about our specific needs and addressed every food allergy concern. Thank you for making our event a huge success. We hope to do that again! Together!

Susan is awesome. They catered my retirement party for 50 people in my home, including support staff who were so terrific that I didn’t have to worry about anything. Chef Jose grilled Tri-​Tip and Salmon along with an array of vegetables, The food was great and the price was very reasonable. It was a flawless experience, and I would use them again or recommend them in a heartbeat. Kudos to the Burbank Caterers.

Wonderful service! They were incredibly accommodating as they fed our entire shoot for 3 days. I would highly recommend them!

We recently used Susan for a week long shoot, and everything went very well. The prices were fair, she was always on time, the food was delicious, and she was on point when it came to accommodating all of our different dietary restrictions.

Susan is one of the sweetest people I’ve ever had the pleasure of communicating with for a film shoot. I’m a producer and it’s a struggle to find caterers who are willing to accommodate low to mid-​level indie budgets. I found Susan a few days before our shoot and she got back to me within an hour of my initial contact. She worked with a wide variety of cast and crew eating restrictions while being flexible with her menu. The food was delicious and kept everyone on set happy.
Beyond that, Susan was just an absolute pleasure to be in contact with: there were times that people had questions about ingredients during lunch and Susan got back to me immediately via text. She really cares about her business and her clients. I’m eager to work with her again on the next one.

Susan is the best! She catered my wedding and did a fantastic job! We wanted something non traditional for our dinner and she worked with us on a Spanish and Colombian menu. It was a success and all our guests loved it. The food was delicious and everyone said so! Use Susan, you won’t regret it!

I recently got married on 12.13.14 & had The Burbank Caterers cater my wedding. Let me first tell you that Susan is an absolute delight to not only work with, yet as a friend. We emailed for a few months prior & she did everything in her power to provide us with a menu that would adhere to our Jewish traditions and on our budget!!! Susan is prompt, super friendly, she helped me with referrals, always returned my phone calls & emails quickly. The wedding was beautiful & the one thing everyone has still talked about was how incredibly delicious her food was! Everyone loved every dish! I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND Susan & her company for any event! You will be so happy you chose her & you’ll make a new friend in the process. Thank you Susan, for all your hard work!

I have had the pleasure of getting to know Susan, her cooking and professionalism over the last couple of months and cannot even think about using another caterer ever again. Her and her team have are so fun to work with and of course the food it fresh, compelling and delightfully presented.

Susan and her staff did a fantastic job preparing my mother’s recent 90^th birthday party. They planned, cooked and delivered appetizers and entrees for 50+ guests and did it all within budget. No surprises, no excuses — everything was on time and communication was excellent. Professional all the way! You won’t find better. And the food was great!

I worked with Susan to help cater an office lunch (15 people) for a client meeting. She immediately helped guide me through the ‘right’ order for the group and worked with me to accomplish budget goals. Everything was already setup beautifully when I arrived. I’m glad I found her and will absolutely work with them in the future when the opportunity arises.

I had the best ribeye steak cooked by Susan yesterday. And today she prepared sun-​dried tomatoes and basil angel hair pasta. Oooh! Good food! My friends and I went home like we had a short trip to heaven. :)

Had the pleasure to enjoy The Burbank Caterers as a guest at an event few days ago and meet the owner Susan Canastra who was also there with her team serving up an endless array of wonderful «amuse –gueules» or appetizers! I particularly enjoyed the freshness of the food and the exquisite original presentation of the shrimp cocktails on bamboo leaf canoes and the variety of miniature desserts!

Sue is absolutely amazing! Great food, great setting, prepared to perfection! What more can you ask for?!

Susan the owner is very gracious and helpful. I was shooting a short film on a limited budget and we were shooting all over the city, a different location everyday. Not only were her meals great, they were affordable and delivered early if not on time. I would highly recommend to anyone seeking a caterer in the area. Perfect for film crews. Plus her Chef Gregory is the lead (i.e. Freddie Mercury) of a awesome cover band called Queen Nation, check them out.

I recently had the opportunity to taste the opulence of Susan’s food at the Summer Solstice Soirée @ Metro 37. Her food is A+++ As an event coordinator for weddings I’ve tried all types of food. Susan’s food presentation is amazing. I recommend Susan if you need a wedding caterer, corporate caterer, box lunches, jet catering or any of your needs really. They ROCK!

I own/​manage a private jet charter company and arranged a commercial shoot on a private jet at the Burbank airport. We normally arrange in-​flight catering but were requested to arrange catering for the site instead. In all honesty, this is not something we normally do. We opted to go outside of in-​flight catering companies, as they tend to be extremely pricey and package food for in-​flight convenience. We read some of the reviews on Unilocal!and decided to take a chance with Burbank Caterers and they made us look good! Thank you Burbank Caterers! It turned out to be a win/​win situation because Burbank Caterers made us look good and they received a lot of requests for their company contact information. That was flattering to us that people who arrange caterers of this type regularly were asking for the one we found!

My son’s Bar Mitzvah was yesterday, and I just had to write a review on The Burbank Caterers!!! I had considered two other catering companies previously, but I was not satisfied with the way either one dealt with me. One was completely outrageous in cost, and the other was not timely in returning calls, emails, or getting the proposal to me. Then I found Susan. She was professional, great at returning calls and emails, and she just made me feel at ease about planning a very important event such as this.
The food was amazing, the presentation was perfect, and my friends and family are still talking about how delicious the food was. Her staff was also very nice and professional. I knew I was in good hands when I spoke with her the day before the event and she told me she was at Trader Joe’s shopping for gluten-​free crackers for my gluten sensitive guests!!! I will definitely use her catering services again.

Thank goodness I found Sue! Her production catering was amazing!
Last week had a medium shoot — filmed on location for 5 days straight — Sue and her crew provided craft services, breakfast and lunch for 4 of the 5 days. Food was excellent and delivered right on time!
Craft services was as expected + more. The fresh strawberries were sweet and the pastries were scrumptious. To add the fresh squeezed orange juice had me coming back for seconds.

I had Susan cater for 50 people for a get-​to-​gether at my home. We had passed horderves and a large table of cheeses/​fruit/​desserts. She did a fabulous job. She was quick in responds and preparation for the event. Her staff was very friendly and efficient. Would highly recommend her and use her in the future.

Had a great experience with Burbank Caterers for a recent office luncheon. I don’t usually order office meals, but I was sick of the sandwich and cookie fare that were always getting dropped off so decided to take matters into my own hands.
I called Susan, the owner, who I’ve known for years from her local catering and work in Glendale’s classic restaurants (Jax/​Clancys/​Star Café). She talked me through a variety of options (including some tasty sounding sandwiches) and recommended a unique menu that would still please a lot of palates. The pasta and Israeli couscous dishes that we ordered were a hit; and the red velvet cupcake desserts were devoured. Customer service was attentive and exceptional, and delivery was friendly and prompt. The main courses were delicious and hot upon delivery, the salads were cool and refreshing. Everything was just perfect and made for a very delicious day at the office. Thanks Burbank Caterers!
