The San Gabriel Valley is home. Our kitchen is in South Pasadena, our crew lives out here, and this is where Kon-Tiki started. When you book us for an event in the SGV, you're not hiring a company that drives in from somewhere else — you're hiring your neighbors.
That matters more than it sounds. We know the venues, we know the streets, and we know how long it actually takes to get anywhere on a Saturday afternoon. We show up early, set up clean, and serve up first-class FUN and FLAVOR with original Kon-Tiki recipes and the island-inspired flavors that come from our Peruvian and Polynesian roots.
It's your party. Your attention belongs on your guests, not on your catering company. We take care of the rest.

Why the SGV Knows Good Tacos
You can't fake it out here. This is a place where families have strong opinions about tacos, and where every celebration comes with an expectation that the food will be worth talking about. That's exactly the crowd we built Kon-Tiki for.
Every taco is made to order in front of your guests. They come up to the cart, watch the tortillas hit the griddle, choose their toppings and walk away with something made just for them — then most of them come back for a second round. Carne asada, achiote-braised chicken, fish, and a vegan option that regularly wins over guests who aren't vegan.
From a backyard graduation party of 40 to a corporate event of 2,000, we scale up with more carts and more crew — never with lower standards. Fresh ingredients, never frozen. Full setup and cleanup included, and fifteen minutes after your event ends we're gone without a trace.

Frequently Asked Questions
All of it — Pasadena, Alhambra, Arcadia, Monrovia, Covina, Glendora, Claremont and everywhere between. We're based right here in South Pasadena, so nowhere in the Valley is a long trip for us.
All the time, and they're some of our favorite events. We'll work with you on guest count, timing and menu so the food fits the celebration rather than the other way around.
A level spot for the cart and a way to get it there. We bring our own equipment and handle setup and cleanup. Backyards, parks, church halls and event venues all work — just tell us about anything unusual and we'll plan around it.
Our kitchen is in South Pasadena, so nowhere in the SGV is a long trip. That means earlier setup and more flexibility on timing than caterers driving in from elsewhere.
Often. Many have their own kitchen rules and setup requirements — tell us the venue and we'll check what they need well ahead of the date.
