    ACT Catering was our caterer for our 80th birthday party for 60 guests at the UC Botanical Garden's Julia Morgan Hall in May, 2025. Their hard work, responsiveness and attention to detail made our party a great success. It was a pleasure working with both Kristine and Brie in planning the event. The tasting session to choose our menu was essental to fine tune the menu and they did a great job. They were extremely flexible in allowing us to make changes as we finalized the event and let us supply our own beverages without a corkage fee. The food presentation was beautiful and quite delicious, plus the service was always with a smile. The flowers from their recommended florist far exceeded our expectations. We can't thank them enough for the huge part they paid in making our party so enjoyable. Our guests all loved it!

    This Thanksgiving I was treated with an amazing feast from ACT Catering. It's an unusual Thanksgiving due to Covid so my family skipped the big celebration to be on the safe side and stay healthy. When the delivery arrived I couldn't be any happier with this spread to my doorstep with the heating instructions enclosed. Each dish was carefully packed, labeled and with a beautiful presentation. Thank you to the amazing food, service and hardworking staff that prepared this exquisite meal. Just see the photos I've attached and feel free to drool on them! I look forward to my next catering meal from them!

    Act Catering sure knows how to bring beautiful, in season food to your table! They prepare meals that are paired with every detail in mind. Each item packaged with care and labeled for your ease. During Covid-19, their curbside pick up is a super easy stop. Make sure to order in advance as they are getting busy. I loved how my feast for two had detailed instructions on how to properly heat up every dish. My partner and I enjoyed a lovely holiday feast, turned to date night. The sides were just as good as the main! Lamb, pomegranate brussel sprouts, blood orange salad, au gratin potatoes, and a decadent bread pudding were just the right combinations to hit the spot. Support local businesses with amazing teams like Act Catering!

    I was unbelievably impressed by the food included in my Thanksgiving for order! Everything came packed in compostable & recyclable packaging. Instructions were included and the food was easy to heat, assemble, and serve. The use of seasonal ingredients in their menu was so incredibly tasty. Everything was seasoned perfectly! My fave was the persimmons and garlic mashed potatoes. The team had great communication and were incredibly kind. I definitely look forward to ordering from ACT in the future!

    I hired ACT Catering for our wedding at Hacienda de las Flores in August 2021. I was blown away when Kristine hit the nail on the head with the menu after our initial conversation. I could not have envisioned something more delicious and fun. I described our wedding plans and some thoughts on the food we wanted - my husband is Indian and we wanted flavorful food that would be interesting and tasty. The food was beautiful, delicious, flavorful and fun! Kristine was very receptive and communicative and a pleasure to work with. Her team was really wonderful for the tasting and day-of as well. In addition to the food, Kristine was able to help out with our wedding chairs and lighting which was just what I wanted. I truly appreciate Kristine and her team. They helped make my wedding stress-free and also helped bring it all together and everything I could have imagined. Photos by Gabriel Harber Photography.

    I feel like I've discovered a secret. At the time of writing this review, ACT Catering only has 8 reviews! Our first sample of ACT was their Thanksgiving menu. We're not huge fans of traditional turkey, stuffing and cranberry sauce, so when we saw the vegetarian menu of stuffed bell peppers with jackfruit, warm artichoke and persimmon salad, sweet potato and bread stuffing, olive oil mashed potatoes, and purple yam cake with graham cracker crust and coconut milk topping, we were immediately intrigued. We ordered shortly before they sold out. All we can say is, wow. The food rivals the best meals we've had at Millennium and Gather, which is all the more impressive given that it was delivered and reheated. Instructions were easy to follow: eg, heat in the oven at 325 for 20 minutes, serve at room temperature, etc. Even the presentation was lovely, and we had no trouble plating the food so that it looked much tastier than typical takeout. Also, the portions were huge. We divided the meal into two dinners for two. It was 5 courses, so we had 2 courses plus half of the dessert each night. For the quality of the food alone, the price was very reasonable. Similar quality and quantity at other restaurants would cost up to double. We will definitely try their regular menu next. We had no idea such a delicious restaurant was hiding just an online order away.

    I used Havana Catering for the first time for my baby shower this past weekend and had a really…read moregreat experience. I had heard of them before because a friend used them for their wedding, and since I plan events for a living, I've worked with a lot of caterers. For my own event though, price mattered a lot, but I still wanted really good food. After reaching out to a bunch of places, I went with Havana because I had tried their food before and their pricing was very reasonable. We ordered full trays of adobo chicken, lechon roasted pork, crispy tofu, paella, sofrito rice, black beans, corn, poblano mac and cheese, and plantains. I did bring in one dish from another restaurant, Jamaican oxtail, just because I know my guests are big foodies. The biggest hits from Havana were definitely the poblano mac and cheese, lechon, and the paella. Honestly, the mac and cheese was the standout. Everyone kept going back for it and I wish I had ordered an extra tray. What really stood out to me though was the delivery experience. The driver called me ahead of time, brought everything in, and set it all up. He opened the trays with gloves, added sauces, arranged everything nicely, and even put out utensils and labels. I've had plenty of catering deliveries before and this was easily one of the best. He was just genuinely kind and went above and beyond, and it made a big difference. Overall, everything went smoothly, the food was great, and I would definitely order from them again.
