Catering FAQs
How do I place an order and what is your availability?
We offer both individually packed and family-style catering, making us the perfect fit for offices, crews, and gatherings as small as 20 guests.
Small group catering can be ordered online. Because we slow-marinate our chicken overnight and prep our food entirely from scratch, we require a strict 2-day lead time on all online orders. For larger catering orders, please submit a catering inquiry.
What catering service levels do you offer?
Pick up & Delivery: Smaller catering orders can be placed directly online via Toast for either kitchen pickup or automated delivery within a 10-mile radius from our kitchen in the Arts District DTLA.
Because size is a major factor, large catering orders cannot be processed online for delivery and must be submitted through our catering inquiry form.
Pick-up orders must be ordered in advance. There is no in-person ordering.
Buffet Set Up: Perfect for larger gatherings. This tier covers hand-delivered catering—including events outside our standard 10-mile delivery zone. Our team handles all the heavy lifting, beautifully arranging the buffet line with clear signage for every dish before leaving you to enjoy your event.
Full Service Catering: Our professional staff remains on-site for the entire duration of your event to manage food service flawlessly. This format can be completely customized to your needs, whether you prefer a staff-served buffet line or individually plated small bites passed around cocktail-style.
Note: Kuku does not offer formal, seated plated dining services; those bespoke experiences are handled exclusively by our sister brand, Jikoni.
What is your delivery radius?
We provide delivery for online catering orders within a 10-mile radius of our kitchen in the Arts District DTLA.
If your delivery address sits outside this 10-mile perimeter, you will need to submit a catering inquiry so our team can review the logistics and quote your order directly.
We are located at 672 S Santa Fe Ave, Los Angeles, CA 90021.
Do you offer corporate accounts or recurring catering?
Absolutely! We routinely work with office managers and production companies to set up recurring catering rotations. For corporate orders, our menu items can be configured as family-style large trays or individual packages depending on your office workflow.
How do you secure the food during transit?
We prioritize food safety and presentation management. All catering orders are packed into specialized delivery boxes sealed tightly with tamperproof tape to guarantee nothing shifts or is opened during transit. Furthermore, our house-bottled beverages feature snap-in, tamperproof lids.
