Lutz Buddy Up celebrated their 8th Annual Christmas Dinner. Began with lamb chops, shrimp, cheeses and a variety of Tapas and then feasted on Chicken Paella and salad. Dessert was coconut creme' brulee, tarimasu, and trece Leche. What a wonderful night honoring our military and 1st responders. Dinner sponsored by superstone.com

I am writing this because people need to hear it. There service is horrible. Their employees are not polite. They treated my family with disrespect. I just had a wedding and they sent servers to serve the food and cake. The food part went well but when it was time to pass out the cake the had missed 3 people at a table. When we told them that they did not receive cake it seemed they were upset and brought over 15 pieces of cake and slammed the plates in front of my guest.
When it was time for me and my wife to eat they brought me plates and no forks or knives. I literally had to get it myself. They also did not clean up the mess like we paid them too and cost me A $500 deposit. So not only did they not do what I paid them to do but they also cost me money as well. I will NEVER recommend them ever to anyone. EVER!

We had a great experience with Paella Party! We ordered catering through them for our holiday party and its safe to say EVERYONE was happy. We had 5 different appetizers & 2 different paellas and it was ALL really good! They arrived an hour before the event to start setting up and cooking, they were attentive and professional, and the food was delicious! I would highly recommend Paella Party for any event
