Cannoli Kings Catering

Can I say more? Wish I could, but after leaving several phone messages and emails with no response I ended up using a different company. So bummed. I loved the menu offerings and after reading such great reviews, I was hoping to give them a try. Oh Well.... more

Cannoli Kings Catering completely think outside the box when it comes to food and service! Very professional, showed up before time and never watched the clock. They made everyone feel comfortable and Chef Michael Parise is just incredible to deal with. His baked mac and brie was the bomb and the Caribbean sweet salmon is my new craving. I am so happy we finally found a company in Los Angeles that we actually cant' wait to use again. We highly Recommend Cannoli Kings for your events. Thanks... Jes Pros: Baked Mac and Brie with Grueyer and White Truffles Cons: They cannot live with us more

We had the pleasure of using Cannoli Kings for our wedding in March. Chef Michael Parise was actually in town and came to our wedding! The food was superb and the service was executed perfectly. My Wife and I highly recommend Chef Parise's, Cannoli kings. From beginning to end it was perfect. We are looking forward to our one year anniversary, catered by... Cannoli kings! Thank you. Pros: Chef Parise showed up! Cons: NONE more

I tried their coke and rum cannoli at a tasting event; AMAZING! The flavor was spot on, and the cream was unusually light and fluffy. I would definitely order from these guys. more

We are foodies. We love delicious food from everywhere. We rarely ""fine dine"", but do go out to eat the best of foods. I've lived in LA all my life and have eaten at all the best restaurants. We found Cannoli Kings through Citysearch. We were enthralled with the variety of foods displayed on his fun website. We met Chef Michael Parise after interviewing with several other caterers and knew on the spot he was the one to cater our commitment ceremony. My partner always sleeps on issues before deciding, but this time he was immediately sure. Michael cares very much about what he does. He has an amazing range of knowledge about food, what the trends are, so much about different kinds of food, and conveyed to us that we'd be in great hands. He's helped us with many of our needs, linens, tables, chairs, lighting rentals, layout, parking, etc. We just had a tasting evening and he absolutely knocked our socks off. The food was incredible, paired with perfect wines, professional service. The apple bacon-wrapped scallops, crab cakes, stuffed mushrooms (the best I've ever tasted). The shrimp scampi pasta and Pinot Grigio were unbelievable. The Caribbean-flavored salmon simply melts. The veal rollatini paired with a Chianti of his choice made for an outstanding entree. You will also get the best cannolis on the face of the planet. They are crisp, rich, smooth, a piece of heaven, and never lumpy. The staff we met are superb, and we know we're in the best of hands. I can't tell you how stress-relieving it is to work with Michael. He loves what he does and it's going to be a great, enjoyable evening filled with exceptional food, drink, service and comfort. Pros: Professional, knowledgable, flexible, friendly more

Recently tried their Baked Mac and Brie with Gruyere at a catered lunch we had a work - this stuff was awesome - also had the Farfalle ala checca with tomatoes and fresh basil - basically I had a carb lunch - what could be better right? To finish it off of course I had a canoli which was pretty damn good.... more

Recently went to an event catered by cannoli kings and had their Classic Amaretto Cannoli which was pretty darn incredible. they said they do like 300+ types of cannolis but i'm sort of a purest in these matters and opted for the classic dipped in chocolate. yum. the rest of the catered food was also top notch including a pesto-crust lamb chop and a very very evil (yet very very yummy) baked mac and cheese that had figs in it. Pros: Great cannolis. Really good ingredients. more

The Cannoli Kinds recently catered a birthday lunch I attended in LA. I really the enjoyed the food and thought the owner was very professional and personable. My favorite dish was the chickpea salad, but all salads were great. I didn't eat much pasta, but everyone else was pleased with those dishes as well. Afterwards there was an assortment of desserts which were delicious. Of course my favorite was the cannoli :) I would defintiely recommend them if you are in need of a caterer. more

I met with Chef Michael and got to sample many of his dishes at a corporate function I arranged (and they catered). WOW! YUMMY! And I really liked the professionalism of the whole set-up... from the display of the food to the server to the Chef's assistant. Each part was exceptional, in my humble opinion. Cannoli Kings certainly seemed to go way above and beyond any of our expectation. So much so that I've hired them to cater my very own baby shower! Now the Chef and I are developing a menu especially for the occasion... full of finger foods for the little ones and unique takes on traditional comfort foods. Chef Michael even offered a perfect solution for my problem with location for the gathering! I HIGHLY recommend Cannoli Kings Catering and Chef Michael! more

Both the food and the service were amazing. Chef Michael arrived with a beautiful and delicious assortment of lamb, pastas, salads and desserts. My favorites are the Fig, Swiss and Brie Macaroni n Cheese topped with spiced breads crumbs and the Herb Lambchops. I couldnt stop eating the cannolis, crispy on the outside with a smooth filling on the inside. It was a delicious meal and the waiter who accompanies Chef Michael provided great service. Pros: Awesome Food and Service! more

I can't express enough how incredible the food was last week. Putting aside that this was a total new mix of offerings - the food itself, just about everything I ate, was spectacular. I thought in my head that I could not ask for better taste at a high class wedding! The pork was phenomenal, baby lamb chops -the best ever, the lump crab meat - no one could get over, shrimp wrapped in prosucitto with goat cheese - outrageous, fried Manchango Cheese - I didn't think I would love that, but WOW! I heard beef tips were amazing, unfortunately I did not try it (probably because I could not stop eating all the things that I loved!). Pros: Words cannot describe more

Dear Chef Parise and the team: You and your Cannoli Kings colleagues did a wonderful job on the food and atmosphere for my party. Your food was exquisite and the several wines that you chose were great. I especially appreciated the lovely ware that the passed hors d'oeuvres came around on and the splendid service your colleagues provided. Many of our guests said they were quite blown away with CK's catering. We hope you will be willing to cater our housewarming and many other parties soon...Ray Gentry (Citi Group) Pros: Truly splendid Cons: N/A more

I just wanted to let you know that everyone raved about the food at my husband Ken's birthday party! It was absolutely delicious, especially the BBQ brisket! It was unbelievable!

My fiance and I just attended a red carpet event that Cannoli Kings Catering sponsored for Lavish Lifestyles, at the Jim Henson Studios in Hollywood, November 6th, the food was spectacular! First, the servers were incredible, they really covered the party -500 people were in attendance and i believe everyone ate the scrumptious appetizers prepared by Celebrity Chef Michael Parise, who was in attendance as well. First appetizer to be passed was the Bruchetta with goat cheese and Kalamata olives served on these wonderful garlic rustic toasts, pure heaven-second appetizer was mini Portobello Mushrooms stuffed with fresh Italian sausage, The third appetizer was Panchetta wrapped prawns with a Garlic Aioli, at that point I was sold. We had the pleasure of meeting Chef Parise as he was walking down the red carpet and we spoke for awhile. To cut to the chase Cannoli Kings WILL be catering our wedding in June of 08. and we are very excited. All in all Cannoli Kings is pure class and I highly recommend them for any event. Pros: The food, the service, the attitude Cons: N/A more

I found Cannoli Kings on Citysearch. When I first spoke with Michael, I told him I was from Brooklyn and wanted something authentic and charming for our labor day wedding party. Well, Cannoli Kings made our backyard into a scene from an Italian Restaurant. Michael not only catered the event with wonderful food (appetizers, dinner and dessert), but also provided the entire set up, top notch staff and clean up- all within our budget. Michael's stress free services allowed me and my husband to relax and enjoy the party for once! Pros: Friendly, Honest, Excellent Food and Staff Cons: the delicious cannoli can become addictive! more

We hired Cannoli Kings Catering to cater a recent event. To say we were satisfied is an understatement. Chef Michael Parise worked with us constantly. He presented us with a fantastic menu that we still receive compliments on. His staff was terrific, well dressed, friendly and second to none in professionalism. In a word, Cannoli Kings Catering was, fantastic. We will be using them again for future parties. Go with Cannoli Kings. Pros: Pros: Delicious food, impeccable customer service, friendly sincere staff more

Cannoli Kings Catering is one of the best catering companies in Los Angeles. From our engagement party with eclectic appetizers and desserts to my bridal showers full of petit fours and cream puffs to our wedding with the perfect Italian menu and then to all four of our anniversary dinners -- Cannoli Kings Catering is wonderful. They are a ""no party too small or large kind of caterer"". They were able to not only please Ken and myself, but our families from all over the country. And their hand made specialty cannolis were to die for! They were the PERFECT wedding night treat! Hopefully Cannoli Kings will be catering all of our big life events! Thank you Cannoli Kings for your professionalism, attentive staff, incredible attention to detail and wonderful food! Pros: Very special to us more

I called on a Saturday and begged for help with a dinner party for 40 that Thursday in my home. I was overwhelmed at work, sick kids, etc. and asked Cannoli Kings to take care of everything. I had used them before to cater a cocktail party and we also have platters delivered on a regular basis,so I knew the food was spectacular, but I had never used the ""full"" service with dish/glass rentals and servers. I can't rave enough about the job they did: they expertly guided me through menu choices, the rentals were delivered on time and in spotless condition, the servers showed up right on time and were so professional and efficient that I did absolutely nothing but enjoy my guests. Every need was attended to and drinks were refilled almost before you realized they were close to empty. Almost every guest remarked upon the level of service and the quality and presentation of the food. When the party was over my house was spotless and everything had been packed up and away. My husband and I literally said goodnight to the last guests, turned off the lights and went to bed. For tremendous service, quality and value, I highly recommend Cannoli Kings Pros: Complete professionalism from beginning to end. Can't rave enough. more
