Debbie’s Dinners

Our office loves Debbie’s lunches! Great variety and delicious food! Her cookies are to die for!

Debbie’s Dinners was recommended to me by an event planner who was helping me with a huge birthday party. 100+ guests. Since it was a retro TV theme Debbie nailed the menu with a do-​it-​yourself TV dinner bar. She made fried chicken, garlic mashed potatoes, green beans, Mac and cheese and the single greatest turkey meatloaf I have ever had in my life. She perfectly accommodated my allergy issues by making several dishes gluten free.
People were killing themselves over the fried chicken and meat loaf. Even though I got more food than I needed there were very few leftovers cause people kept getting seconds and thirds and whatnot. The food was amazing. Very competitive price. Great service. But most of all she was a dream to work with. No attitude totally collaborative and had lots of very fun ideas, too. She got what I wanted and over delivered on everything in an amazing way. I will absolutely use her again even though I’m secretly angry that her turkey meatloaf is so much better than mine.
Great food, great service and a great caterer.

Debbie catered a family BBQ for us. She is delightful to work with. The staff she brought was professional, courteous and exceptional. My house was immaculate after! I had never had a catered event at my house before, and Debbie made us want to do it every week! The Lobster Roll and pigs in a blanket appetizers and the Mac and Cheese were everyone’s favorites. Debbie thought of every detail. She was through and followed through, and followed up after. I look forward to hiring Debbie and her team again the future. They are stars!

DEBBIE’S DINNERS SHINED DURING ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT EVENTS I HAVE EVER PRODUCED… MY GRANDMOTHER’S 100 BIRTHDAY CELEBRATION!
I’ll start off by stating that I’ve worked with many catering companies throughout Los Angeles as my line of work incorporates event planning on a regular basis. I’m a stickler for great service and tasty food like everyone should be… but it’s the little details that differentiate a good catering business from a great catering business.
I had challenging obstacles to work with for this party including a limited budget and a not-​so-​attractive space. I spoke with Debbie, described the situation and she immediately got to work. We went through several iterations of the menu until the perfect mix of appetizers, entrees and sides were achieved including several dietary restrictions.
We then tackled the space. Debbie helped create a beautiful mix of floral arrangements, table displays for food and colorful linens to liven up the room.
On the day of the party, Debbie informed me she asked her head chef be there to make sure all the food looked and tasted its best. She stayed longer than anticipated… and as another reviewer stated filled glasses, filled plates and made sure everybody was happy.
My entire family was thrilled with our Grandmother’s celebration… from beginning to end Debbie’s Dinners fulfilled its promise to provide a great catering experience.

I just had the pleasure of hiring Debbie to cater an engagement party for our daughter. From everyone, we heard «lovely party». Thanks to Debbie and her terrific staff we had a wonderful evening with lots of great memories.

This is the 2^nd time my company’s building management has catered breakfast to us from Debbie’s Dinners and the food was disgusting both times with everyone I talked too agreeing. Everything was cold and bland with no flavor, tastes like left over food that was microwaved. The fruit and pastries were good but the main dish, the spinach and ham strata looked and tasted like a sponge and was not only bland but dry. The potatoes would be better if they has some sort of seasoning on them which made them bland too. Croissants were hard, and the hot chocolate was watery. According to the other reviews they loved the food. I had left out that before the two breakfast caters that they had catered lunch to us, which was pretty descent, if it wasent for their under cooked chicken which i heard from several employees. Mine happened to be fine. Maybe it was half of the chicken that got under cooked. The only reason im giving this 2 stars is that their staff every time has always been very professional and friendly, but the food on the other hand can use some work.

Debbie catered my dad’s 80^th birthday party this year. The food was amazing. We had the best steak fajitas that I’ve ever had! Debbie made everything seamless and gorgeous. The best part was how she took care of me during the party. My drink was never empty and Debbie made sure I ate the food. Being a hostess can leave you hungry and thirsty when you are taking care of everyone else!
I also have to say that the price was right! Debbie was very reasonable and worked with me on getting the balance paid.
One last thing — the desserts and cookies from Debbie are out of this world!
I will definitely use Debbie again and again.

Great catering company. I used Debbie’s Dinners to cater a broker’s open house at the Oviatt Building downtown Los Angeles. Debbie coached me through the process and put on a fantastic event. All the food was delish and her staff was professional and courteous. She made me shine. I had check around so I know her prices were very competitive. I highly recommend Debbie’s Dinners!

The food was supposed to be from Maggie’s Meat and Bread. Found out that Maggie handed over the business to Debbie’s Dinners. Disappointing to say the least. Purchased a Living Social for 10. Purchased an additional 2 for the office. The sandwiches were dry. Half the people in the office had to add mayo or mustard to make it edible. Don’t expect too much of the side salad, you get about a spoonful’s worth per person. That being said, the two additional servings that I thought I purchased was only 2 sandwichs and did not include the side salad. When I called to inquire about it, they got back to me at 4:00 p.m. Too late for lunch at that point. The message they left was that they gave me more than what we would have received if it was sent by individual servings instead of in one container. The paperwork that the delivery guy had, showed that there was supposed to be salad for 10, not 12 as I had ordered. Definitely would NOT call this «gourmet»!!
