Chef Denise came through with some very delicious food for our Celebration of Life. The tri tip and grilled herb chicken were very tasty. I would highly recommend her to cater your event.

I was working with a group planning a baby shower for a friend across country and GennieBeeCatering made the catering process seamless!! Chef Denise was professional, friendly, flexible, and responsive during the entire process. We enjoyed her presence at the event just as much as we did her food.

Gennie Bee Catering goes above and beyond for their clientele. They offer exquisite food as well as wonderful displays when serving dinner. My fiancé and I loved her roasted pork with apricot sauce it was delicious and we still talk about it to this day. Always a 5 stars with this business.

Let me just start by saying Chef Denise and her team did an amazing job! They provided us with a beautiful array of appetizers, desserts, as well as mocktails and cocktails. The presentation of the appetizers and service, made our first Penthouse popup at Sentral DTLA luxury apartments a memorable experience for our guests. We will definitely be doing more business with Chef Denise and her staff.
