About Nani’s Catering
Bringing the heart and soul of authentic Mexican gastronomy to Southern California celebrations for over a decade.
Crafted from Family Heritage and a Love for Festive Feasts
Founded by Jose Miguel Rivera Sanchez, Nani’s Catering started with a simple belief: that food is the heartbeat of every great family gathering. What began as cooking for neighborhood gatherings blossomed into a premier mobile catering service trusted across four Southern California counties.
Over the last 10 years, our team has attended more than 850 events—from dream vineyard weddings in Temecula to colorful quinceañeras in Riverside and lively corporate summits in Irvine and DTLA. Every dish is seasoned with authentic pride, fresh citrus, rich chiles, and generous portions.
