Furiwa Catering

For couples who want banquet-grade Chinese-Vietnamese food at a venue of their own choosing, Furiwa is one of the most established Chinese caterers in LA and Orange County. They've been catering for almost 30 years, having served high-profile events like movie premieres as well as weddings with as many as 400 guests. The menu is proper banquet fare: cold platters to open, candied walnut shrimp, lobster, braised duck, steamed whole flounder, and mango pudding to close. The interactive stations are the part guests talk about most, including peking duck carving, a dim sum pastry station, and a late-night congee bar that keeps showing up in reviews as a crowd favorite. They're also fairly accommodating to special requests when couples want a specific off-menu dish.

Couples consistently describe the food as delicious without being heavy or greasy. The biggest compliment is that many guests start ordering from Furiwa's Westminster takeout location after the wedding because they liked the food so much. The team is attentive and responsive across planning, tastings, and execution, and they handle dietary restrictions and off-site logistics smoothly. One thoughtful touch: they offer to-go containers at the end of the night so leftovers actually go home with family. Pricing runs $700 to $1,300 per table depending on the menu. Best for couples who want food to be a highlight of the wedding, paired with a catering team experienced at pulling it off flawlessly at scale.
