Monrovia's Kitchen was exceptional to work with! Jackie was always on top of it, and very responsive to emails and phone calls. Jackie was also extremely patient and kind as we worked through all the planning details, being willing to repeatedly update the proposal as we changed ideas or needed to add last minute items. She always went above board from the first tasting all the way through the wedding itself.
The food was absolutely great. We got repeated compliments on the food, with several guests saying it was the best food they had ever had at a wedding. We did a buffet, and Jackie created a beautiful layout. She really listened to what we wanted and delivered.
The staff at Monrovia was also great. We received many compliments on how witty and charming the bartender was, and how on top of service the staff was. Overall, we could not have been happier with Jackie and her team. They exceeded our expectations, and really shined at the wedding.
Thank you Jackie.

Monrovia's Kitchen is absolutely fabulous! We got married this past May and went to multiple caterers with our idea of laid-back BBQ and southern food. Many caterers came back to us with the most foofy versions of this menu (as lovely as Porcini Enscrusted Roasted Filet Mignon would be, it was a little over the top for what I wanted to feel like a backyard celebration), but Monrovia worked with us to create an AMAZING menu. Honestly they had my heart the second they suggested macaroni cupcakes (seriously.... Amazing).
We had a tasting a couple of months before the wedding and everything was fabulous. We still decided to throw caution to the wind and request an appetizer that we didn't have the opportunity to try at the tasting (we were planning long distance so we couldn't do multiple tastings and did our somewhat last minute) -- the mini buffalo chicken grilled cheese sandwiches. The little grilled cheeses turned out to be my favorite thing that we ate -- INCREDIBLE!
They also set up 2 food bars (a biscuit bar and a mac and cheese bar) that everyone RAVED about. And in lieu of a groom's cake we opted to pay homage to the city that we met in with a banana foster bar! All of the food and desserts were amazing!
The staff was also great. The bartenders and waiters were professional and looked put together. I didn't feel like I had to worry about anything the whole evening. And as we left our reception the planner pulled out two HUGE bags from the caterers with all of our leftover food (8 to-go boxes) which were HEAVENLY as a midnight snack and again the next morning (afternoon).
I can't say enough great things about Monrovia as a whole!
