fundamental events - Inglewood, California

I booked fundamental for my wedding and it was the best decision I could have made! We had a great experience doing a tasting, which helped us create the perfect buffet style menu. They kept me organized throughout the planning process and were excellent communicators. The service throughout the wedding was above and beyond my expectations, we were surprised and delighted with every thoughtful detail. They provided a dedicated server for us as the wedding couple, who brought us our signature drinks right after the service and even packed us a dessert box at the end. Everyone that attended told us that the food was great, and the drinks were visually stunning and expertly made.

If you are considering Fundamental Catering for your event, sign the contract! I worked with Fundamental in Los Angeles and I am amazed by how they go above and beyond, and sideways! The food is DELICIOUS and that is reason number 1 to hire them, but their hospitality skills and overseeing skills for the event was phenomenal. As a planner, I need to work closely with everyone behind the scenes. It was a dream working with them the whole night. Team work is definitely behind their success.
I am not a fan of the buffet line because it can sometimes take too long for the guests to get served. This company has a hand on that buffet! We had 135 guests and they were all taken care of in less than an hour. The litmus test was the true magic, not a single guest tried to cut in line!!! The buffet was moving so smoothly that everyone knew they would be getting up soon! Never have I seen that happen before in a buffet setting.
Fundamental now has a top spot on my vendor list and I am looking forward to working with them again! I am very particular who I recommend and I say Yes, Book Them!

Fundamental recently catered my birthday party and my guests couldn't stop raving about the food and signature drinks. They set up an instagram worthy station where a chef made fish tacos to order. 'Delicious' doesn't even begin to describe these tacos. Their team handled every detail flawlessly, making the entire event effortless for me. Since then, fundamental has become my go-to for dinner parties, and their appetizer presentations are simply stunning – a feast for both the eyes and the palate. Knowing I have fundamental in my corner makes hosting any event an absolute breeze; I can relax and enjoy my guests, confident that the food will be perfect.

I have worked with Fundamental more times than I can count and that is for a reason! Their team is incredibly responsive, attentive to detail, and truly care about each event. They are professional and execute phenomenal events with delicious food and a strong team. (All are very important!) As an event planner, I value a team who can truly pull their own weight and is devoted to the event (no matter what it’s for!), and as a bride, I care about professionalism, great service and delicious food. The fundamental team has always exceeded my expectations! Truly cannot recommend enough.

Words cannot express how awesome the food and set up was and all the little details you thought of to make this event go by so seamlessly. I already mentioned the communication aspect of it before but I just wanted to reiterate how helpful Lauren and team were and how responsive in the planning stages.

As far as delivery, everything was on time and seemed so easy. The pick up was seamless too.

Guests with all kinds of tastes and dietary restrictions and preferences gathered together and were all happy and impressed.

Very underrated and overlooked: your website was easy to navigate and submitting payments was so fast and was perfect for keeping track of payment history.

Thank you for helping us have such a great end of the year event!

As a wedding & event planner that has been in the industry for over 13 years I can say wholeheartedly that the Fundamentals Events Team is by far one of the best! From inquiry to event day, it has always been a great experience. I typically work closely with Cindy during the inquiry, booking phase, tasting to final details and she is so attentive to details, beyond timely communicator and is always giving such great & honest suggestions. Come day of, the team is always on time, always attentive to the many details and curveballs that are thrown at us on event days (with a big smile too). Thankful to have met the Fundamental Team and can't wait for the next event with them.

I've worked with/referred clients to the team at Fundamental for over six years, and have also been a guest at many events they've catered. I think what's most impressive about them (and what gives me the utmost confidence when I recommend them to my clients) is the *consistency* of their excellence: in the quality or their cuisine, their flexibility and creativity with their menus, the high level of support and responsiveness their team provides clients during the planning process, and with the follow through/execution of the hospitality their team provides to guests throughout their events. I can't recommend them highly enough!

Fundamental Catering was amazing to work with, from the pre planning to the day of set up. Lauren was lovely to work with and on top of EVERY detail. They worked with our special requests and had a great menu. The food was delicious, we are still craving it! The staff was so helpful and set up the table exactly as we pictured it. A wonderful woman was readily available at every turn with drinks for my husband and I. She also ensured that we got to enjoy our dinner by personally serving us. She was so kind and helpful!
