Lots was excellent! Wry professional and the food was amazing! Thank you

Chef Craig Evans was great. We had the BBQ and the food was wonderful. Chef Craig was very helpful. The only issue is that I thought the chef arrival would be 7:00 PM but it was actually 6:00 PM, meaning dinner would be served at 7:00. I wasn't monitoring my phone but we finally connected and all was well.

We organized Lora Catering for our entire stay in the desert. The variety was incredible—ingredients, and thoughtful dietary options. The staff was friendly, professional, and always on time, making the entire experience feel seamless and elevated. Truly one of the highlights of the trip. Highly recommend!
