Touch of Paradise Catering

Chef Kai did an outstanding job and the food was fantastic. His crew set up and cleaned up in a very timely matter. What was really nice was I didn’t have to even talk to them, they did everything perfectly. I used Touch of Paradise for my husbands 60^th birthday, 100 guests and there was plenty of food.

The owner Kai, is the sweetest, most professional and patient caterer I’ve ever worked with. The manicotti was fantastic! My Italian mother in law approved.

I just recently had a brunch party at my house and Touch of Paradise catered the entire entrée! WOW!!!
The food was absolutely delicious and the presentation of all of the food was gorgeous!
Both together were creative, unique and fun! I kept hoping for the food to come back around again to eat!
Chef Kai and his staff are beyond wonderful and friendly!
I can’t wait to go to another Touch of Paradise Catering event!

Kai catered our wedding. He was absolutely wonderful to work with, very responsive and concerned about your needs! His food is too die for! The Hawaiian pork melts in your mouth! His carne asada tacos were delicious! Most guests favorite dish was his special salad. How can salad taste so good?! I would highly reccommend Kai for any event. He is very reliable and provide exceptional food and service! Thanks, Kai!

Kai has been SUCH a pleasure to work with and we have nothing but glowing reviews regarding his food and his service. He caters to our sorority house once a week and handles large parties of 100 once a month for our chapter. I also work with him directly to cater food for our large Founder’s Day event once a year. He is extremely kind, generous, and understanding of our budgetary needs. They always show up on time and provide excellent service for our events. I highly recommend him!

Touch of Paradise makes the BEST food of many many caterers I’ve used in the past. We will be using them again in the next few months. This catering service is very professional and I also received many compliments from my employees that the food was great! Keep up the great work!

I would highly recommend this for the live entertainment, if your a fan of Hawaiian style BBQ and tacos.

NEVER USE TOUCH OF PARADISE CATERING.
They showed up late even though the invoice we agreed upon stated the correct time the event was going to start. I called Kai and he claimed that he thought the event was at a later time. WHAT? Everyone at the company was waiting at the tables at the start time of the event yet there were no food, drinks, or tablecloths in sight. They were providing the table cloths so the tables were not decorated until they arrived. We had to decorate the tables while people were sitting at them waiting. The food was ready 1 hour after the event began. The food was terrible. Many of our guests left most of their food behind because they couldn’t even stand how gross it was. The catering team was very unprepared. My event had 250 in attendance and they only brought enough drinks for 25 people. They kept running out of napkins, plates, salad, and the other main dishes. This was such a terrible experience. Please do yourself a favor and find someplace more professional and worth your money.

Absolutely would recommend Touch of Paradise Catering. I found him searching the web for a luau theme church event and Chef Kai was so accomodating to our requests and limited budget we had to work with. He took the time to find out exactly what we wanted and how he could make it work to fit our budget. We ordered kalua pork sliders and cole slaw for an event for about 1,000 people and it was delicious. The pork was tender and the cole slaw was a great little topping for the sliders. Everyone loved it and no complaints except they wanted seconds!
I think more catering companies should operate the way Chef Kai does. He works with your budget. He makes simple suggestions on what to serve without compromising on the quality of the food. He was professional, and he delivered exactly what we ordered and wanted.
I will definitely use him again for my next event.

I am sticking by my 5 star review! My wedding was wonderful and the FOOD WAS AWESOME! I have had multiple people ask about the food and who catered! Kai’s team showed up and had the food set up well and was right on time! My location had no kitchen so they grilled right outside!
I think one of the things I liked the most was, I felt important. As mentioned in my previous review we did not have a ton of money and Kai worked with us asked if the price seemed fair! He made it very VERY CLEAR that we would not get our $ 500 deposit back if we canceled. In addition he let me know that if I needed to add more guest like a week before the event that was fine. but 3 days or so before he would have purchased the food so I needed to give him the final count before then-​Which is smart business!
I had 185 guest and had ordered food for 170 and yet we had enough AND leftovers!!!
The other reviewer mentioned that he canceled within 3 days and was upset he received no refund.- I don’t want to be mean but… I can understand why not. By that time the food for was probably already purchased for the event. I sure hope the other reviewer still got the tacos. We had them (and grilled Salmon and Chicken Skewers) for our wedding and they were goooooooooooooooood!!!
I can’t say enough good things! Thank you Kai for being a part of such a special day and for making sure everything was handles well!
