How It All Started

Two Passions, One Unforgettable Experience

RuttsLuaus was born from a simple belief: that the best events combine incredible food with unforgettable entertainment. We started as Rutts Catering — a family-run Hawaiian food operation rooted in authentic island recipes — and grew into something much bigger.

Over the years, we began pairing our catering with professional Polynesian dancers, fire performers, and luau entertainment. The response was overwhelming. Clients didn't just want the food — they wanted the full experience.

Today, RuttsLuaus is Southern California's go-to for Hawaiian combo packages: authentic catering plus a full luau show, all from one team. We serve everyone from intimate backyard birthdays to large corporate events across Los Angeles, South Bay, and Orange County.

Our Values

What Sets Us Apart

We don't just show up and serve food. We bring the full spirit of Hawaii to your event.

Aloha Spirit

Every event we cater carries the true spirit of aloha — warmth, generosity, and a genuine love for bringing people together through food and culture.

Authentic Recipes

Our dishes are rooted in generations of Hawaiian tradition. From slow-roasted Kalua Pork to silky Haupia, every recipe honors the islands.

Show-Stopping Entertainment

Our professional Polynesian dancers bring the luau to life — fire shows, hula, and Tahitian dance that leave guests talking for years.

Community Roots

Born and raised in the LA community, we've been serving Southern California families, corporations, and event planners for over a decade.

The Entertainment

Professional Polynesian Performers

Our luau show features 3 professional Polynesian dancers trained in traditional Hawaiian hula, Tahitian ori, Samoan fire knife, and more. Every performance is choreographed to captivate guests of all ages.

From elegant hula to heart-pounding fire shows, our performers bring energy, culture, and spectacle to your event. We offer Standard Shows, Fire Shows, and Tiki Props packages to match any event vibe and budget.

The luau show is valued at $1,500 — and when bundled with our catering packages, you get the full experience at a fraction of the cost of booking separately.
