Just weeks before our annual Christmas party our caterer had to cancel due to an injury. Long story short, I turned to Thumbtack (which I had never heard of). I heard back from a few different caterers but no one followed through like Joseph from LPG. He immediately obliged me by coming by our house to discuss party plans. We decided on the menu, timing, and expectations. Our party was a wonderful success with great food, great service and professionalism. Thank you to Joseph, Ian and Jerry.

Where do I even start! This review is for LPG catering but with great emphasis put on the owner JOE! In the little time I have spent planning my company Christmas party, I gained one heck of a Friend! He is the epitome of what it takes to truly bring your vision to LIGHT. He is a fantastic listener and collaborator. He doesn't just let you spend money unnecessarily for his own benefit but rather soothes all your worries! He truly is MORE than just an event specialist, he is much MUCH more and should always be compensated as such. I cant wait to work with you many more times in the future joe. The food was amazing and the décor was immaculate! However, There are enough reviews stating the obvious, so I wanted to share with the public what others do not say enough! OH AND BEFORE I FORGET, HIS TEAM IS AN RELECTION OF HIM AND THEY ARE ALL AMAZING! TRULY THE BEST IN LOS ANGELES COUNTY!! #TOPTIER

Details: Holiday party • Dinner • Cocktail hour or hors d'oeuvres • Alcoholic drinks • Dessert • Non-alcoholic drinks • American - formal • Italian • Vegan • American - Southern • Plated meal • I'm flexible • Yes, full kitchen • 40 - 49 guests • Table décor • Serving and warming equipment • Cloth napkins • Plates, utensils and glasses • Premium (high end ingredients)

Joe was a joy to work with. We hired LPG for our museum wedding and they above and beyond delivered. During our tasting Joe made it super clear he doesn’t up charge for the typical things that caterers do like cutlery, booze, or entree selections. We received a clear fee and Joe stuck to that, which I really appreciated. The bar was perfect, the antipasto table super beautiful, table settings were thoughtful and perfectly styled and best of all - the food was super delicious. Joe created a unique menu that fit our styles and best of all he was flexible when inevitably things changed. I didn’t snap any pics of our beautiful food, because i was too busy enjoying it! Joe operates on a “we’ll make it work attitude” and I absolutely love people like that. Thank you, Joe, for helping to create one of the best nights of my life.

It was an amazing experience with La Panzano. We had them cater our wedding and everybody was raving about the food. Joe was very accommodating as well since we have to do the taste test in our home due to Covid, and right from the start, we felt comfortable with him and we knew that he’ll be the perfect person to cater our special event. Thank you Joe!
