We aren’t just another catering company — we are chefs first, storytellers always, and hospitality innovators at heart. Our roots started in a food truck that became one of the Top 10 Food Trucks in Arizona (AZ Republic), a Food Truck of the Year nominee (Scottsdale League of the Arts), and a regular feature across local media. From there, we built a culinary reputation that has been recognized by the Food Network, Phoenix New Times, AZ Republic, and Uptown Magazine, as well as countless appearances on Fox 10, Channel 3, Channel 5, and Channel 12.

Our founder, Keri, was named one of Arizona’s Top Culinary Innovators, and her creativity and technique drive every menu we craft. But what truly sets Urban Phoenix apart is this:

We design food experiences — not just meals.
We treat every event like a one-night-only restaurant, where the menu, service, flow, and guest experience are fully customized to the moment. No templates. No reruns. No “wedding food” that tastes like wedding food.

We believe in:

• Flavor that surprises.

• Presentation that delights.

• Service that anticipates needs before they’re spoken.

• Hospitality that feels personal, generous, and human.

We didn’t grow by being the biggest.
We grew by being unforgettable.

We specialize in translating your vision into flavor, atmosphere, and experience.
We don’t confine ourselves to one cuisine — our chefs pull from global culinary technique, live-fire cooking, fine dining plating, plant-forward creativity, comfort food nostalgia, and modern hospitality presentation.

Some events call for quiet elegance.
Some need bold expression and energy.
Some want playful, interactive, and immersive.

We listen first — to the mood, the space, the story, the guests, the purpose — and then we build a menu that matches the vibe.

Whether it’s:

• A dinner party in your backyard that turns into magic

• A 300-person wedding with refined, thoughtful plating

• A corporate event that doesn’t feel corporate

• A themed or immersive culinary moment

• Something we haven’t been asked to do yet but cannot wait to invent

We build the food around the experience you want guests to remember.

Every event has two anchors: the vision and the budget.
Our work is to align the two without losing flavor, atmosphere, or intention.

Because everything we do is custom, pricing varies based on:

• Guest count

• Menu complexity and culinary production level

• Service style (passed, plated, family-style, stations, tasting menu, live-prep, etc.)

• Staffing + rentals

• And how “theatrical” the experience is intended to be

We begin with a conversation — short, clear, collaborative — about:

• What matters most to you

• Where you want the wow

• Your non-negotiables

• Your comfort zone with investment

From there, we show you smart, thoughtful pathways to bring the experience to life — without compromising quality or intention.

And truly — we can usually align the magic + the math in one quick phone call.

Magic + math.
We do both.
Beautifully.
