Sometimes we have cravings at work, like for zesty sandwiches, spit-roasted meats, or honeyed milk dumplings. For days when you want those dishes catered, and delivered on the dot, for your clients or team, we’ve got you covered. Here are the ten best restaurants catering in Los Angeles.

1. Gaby’s on Venice (Venice Blvd., Los Angeles)                   

Gaby’s on Venice specializes in rich Middle Eastern cuisine. Expect delicately perfumed rice; creamy, smoky dips; and spiced meats. If the cuisine is new to you, start with the beef and chicken catering package. It comes with the good stuff, including appetizers and your choice of grilled meats. Try the juicy kababs or shawarma, which is slices of meat carved off a vertical spit.

2. Rutt’s Cafe and Catering (Washington Pl., Los Angeles)

For over 40 years, Rutt’s Cafe and Catering has been an ode to rich, humble Hawaiian food. The Los Angeles restaurant is best known for catering plate-lunch classics like barbecued chicken and beef short ribs, with a faint sweetness of caramelly soy sauce. If you want to sink into desserts, try the pineapple bread pudding or haupia, a coconut pudding.

3. Which Wich (Hollywood Blvd., Los Angeles)

If your clients or colleagues want something simple and familiar, try Which Wich, which has several Los Angeles restaurant locations. Its classic American sandwiches lend themselves well to the diets of vegetarians and meat eaters. We recommend the “Traditional Wich” sandwich tray, a best seller on the catering menu. The assortment of sandwiches makes it easy for guests to grab what they want.

4. India’s Grill (S. San Vicente Blvd., Los Angeles)

While the Los Angeles restaurant India’s Grill offers a huge roster of appetizers and entrées, its best-loved catering dishes are infused with intoxicating spices. The chicken masala is enrobed in a creamy, spiced tomato sauce. For less heat, try the gingery saag paneer, a vegetarian dish of soft cheese with velvety spinach. Make room for the dessert called gulab jamun. The deep-fried milk dumpling is dipped in saffron-honey syrup.

5. Almaza Fine Mediterranean Cuisine (Venice Blvd., Los Angeles)

If you’re tackling a huge project and you have just minutes to plan a menu, Almaza Fine Mediterranean Cuisine may be one of your best catering options in Los Angeles. The restaurant’s preset packages and combo meals make ordering quick and easy. For a handheld lunch, don’t overlook the spit-roasted chicken sandwich, which comes with a side. For a richer meal, try the Mediterranean package, which comes with your choice of meats and delightful sides to sop up the juices.

6. New Moon (W. 9th St., Los Angeles)

If your office is getting bored with your menu rotation, go for the dynamic flavors of Chinese food. New Moon delivers an abundance of intense, fragrant stir-fries like sticky-sweet honey-glazed chicken, spicy kung pao chicken, and thick-sliced Mongolian beef, which gets its intense umami taste from soy sauce.

7. Togo’s Sandwiches (Wilshire Blvd., Los Angeles)

Need to feed note-takers at your next lunch meeting? Go for the portable sandwiches from Togo’s Sandwiches. The menu is filled with classics like the creamy chicken sandwich, which gets a sprinkling of almonds for crunch. Another popular sandwich, the Greek veggie, is finished off with pickled pepperoncini peppers and crumbly feta.

8. Sepan Chicken (Glendale Blvd., Los Angeles)

Sepan Chicken is one of the best restaurants catering Mediterranean in Los Angeles. From juicy roasted chicken to lemony tabbouleh salad, its catering packages make ordering easy. Just do a headcount of your group (are you feeding 4, 6, 8, or 12?), then order the corresponding catering package.

9. Marsa Lounge (Wilshire Blvd., Los Angeles)

If you want to treat your team or clients to a nourishing meal, try Marsa Lounge, one of the best restaurants catering Mediterranean in Los Angeles. Its menu stars flavorful grilled meats and vegetables; and fresh, lemony salads dressed with a glug of olive oil. If there’s room for dessert, try the delicate baklava, which tastes deeply of nuts and honey.

10. Heirloom LA (1/2 N. Figueroa St., Los Angeles)

Heirloom LA’s beautiful catering packages will remind your VIPs just how exceptional you think they are. The restaurant’s signature healthy meals are super delicious. Try the “Heirloom LA Dinner Package,” full of well-executed classics: The braised brisket is topped with an herbaceous salsa verde sauce. The roasted fingerling potatoes are simply divine. And the whitefish is blanketed with a lemony cream sauce.
