Max bartender our Galentine’s party and was fantastic. The prickly pear margaritas were so refreshing and easily a favorite of the night! Not too sweet and perfectly balanced. Guests kept going back for more!
He was professional, friendly, and made everything feel effortless. The bar setup looked great and the whole experience elevated our event. Highly recommend!

We hired Max for my Dad's retirement party. First and foremost his drinks are excellent! He had some hand crafted drinks that were very tasty. Our guests enjoyed those and the amazing charcuterie board. Service was excellent the entire time. Would hire again for sure!

The whole event was customized exactly to my liking and I definitely plan on using Max’s Mobile for my future catering and bar tending needs. Highly recommend!

February 2, 2026Family Reunion
I hired Max to help me with a party for my family reunion. He did an excellent job. He is very professional and organized. I wanted regional cocktails and he came up with some very creative ideas. The specialty cocktail was a prickly pear margarita. Not only did it look pretty, it tasted great! He also put together a beautiful charcuterie board. My family greatly appreciated Max's contributions, and they consumed them with enthusiasm. Max is very creative and will work with you to make sure that you have the best experience possible. I highly recommend his services.

About
Elevated craft cocktails & grazing experiences, grown from the ground up.
My approach to bartending is farm to glass. Between my coastal property in Seal Beach and my high-desert farm in Yucca Valley, I grow fresh, seasonal ingredients that inspire every cocktail and every charcuterie spread.
Each drink is thoughtfully handcrafted using garden-grown citrus, herbs, botanicals, and edible flowers, blending classic technique with seasonal creativity. From desert-inspired elixirs to coastal classics, every menu is designed with intention and tailored to your event.
To complement the cocktails, I create beautifully styled charcuterie boards and grazing tables featuring premium meats, artisan cheeses, fresh fruits, and garden-forward accents. Everything is customizable to your guest count, flavor preferences, and vibe.
Perfect for weddings, private parties, birthdays, and corporate events, my goal is simple: to create an immersive culinary experience that feels personal, elevated, and unforgettable.
You name it, I’ll create it!
Additional booking notes
My setup is fully self-contained and designed to be flexible for a wide range of event spaces.
All I need is:
• Access to water
• Access to standard power
I supply all bartending tools, bar setup, glassware (as agreed), garnishes, and service equipment, and I’m comfortable working indoors, outdoors, and in non-traditional spaces.
If you have questions about space layout, flow, or setup timing, I’m happy to coordinate directly with you or your planner to ensure everything runs smoothly.
