About Us
Taste of Paella has been cooking in Hollywood for years, and the city has its own rhythm: long afternoons near the Broadwalk, family tables that stretch into the evening, neighbours who show up and end up staying for dessert. A paella pan sits comfortably in the middle of all that.
Quinceañeras, birthdays, retirement parties, a backyard get-together a few blocks from the beach. We adjust the menu, the timing and the number of pans to whatever you have in mind, and we tell you straight if something is not going to work.

Corporate Events in Hollywood, FL
Planning something for the office in Hollywood, FL? Live paella turns a work lunch into an actual event, and it does the thing that is hardest to arrange on purpose: it gets people standing together, talking, away from their phones.
Team lunches, client thank-yous, a company anniversary, an end-of-season get-together. We handle the cooking, the serving and the clearing up, so nobody on your team spends the day organising food instead of enjoying it.
We come to your office, your terrace or the venue you have booked, set up the burners and cook in front of everyone. No reheated trays: the rice is made on site and served straight from the pan.

“Adolfo and Esther were absolutely fantastic! They went above and beyond in preparing, presenting, and serving the paella. From the moment we met to the very end, they were incredibly thorough and pleasant. They were so friendly and welcoming. The paella mixta was stunning to look at and tasted absolutely incredible (it was the star of the show in terms of presentation and taste). The tapas and charcuterie board were also delicious and looked amazing. They truly made the evening unforgettable. We’ll definitely be looking to hire them again, hands down! They’re highly recommended. Thanks a bunch, Esther and Adolfo!”

“Chef Esther is one of a kind. Not only was she a pleasure to deal with from the beginning, things got even better when she arrived at our event. She delighted our guests with her delicious paella and was an extension of the hostess with her gracious and hospitable manner. The paella was amazing and plentiful. Highly recommend!”
