For the event, the team did an amazing Mexican spread that rivaled anything I've ever had here in California. Fresh and tasty......every bite!

We requested a full vegan menu with 4 courses and passed appetizers during cocktail hour for 30 people. And wow did they deliver! I am having guests ask me for their recipes and some saying they would consider going vegan if all their meals tasted like this. Our main goal was to serve vegan food to meat eaters and have them not miss the meat. My husband and I could not be more pleased with the way the food turned out. It was a complete success. The service is unmatched. Judy took care of everything and helped with the details that I never would've thought of. I've never planned a wedding before, so it was SO helpful to have her ask more questions ahead of time in order to make sure everything went smoothly. I loved her communication, cheerfulness, and genuine love for what she does. Their serving staff was friendly, helpful, and had a sense of urgency when they were asked for anything. They were engaged in what they were doing and they seemed happy to be serving us. There isn't a thing I would change about the way Chef Michael's Catering handled our wedding reception. They truly contributed a large part to the happiest night of our lives and I'm so thankful I had the opportunity to work with them.

If not, the City Parking under the Aloft Hotel is just a few doors away, free if you are there 59 minutes or less, or $2 an hour. Not too hungry, you can buy 1/2 of most sandwiches (all come with chips and a pickle spear). They recently renovated with new flooring and paint and more. Never noisy when I am there. Seats are further apart than other downtown locations. Those of you who are here for a while might remember this as Laury's. She was very community involved and when she died way too young, her staff took over the restaurant. So a great staff and local owners. They are very well known for their catering. You can, also, run in and pick up prepared meals or sides from the glass cases in the front of the restaurant. There are 2 10 minute, curbside parking spaces right in front so you can order your food and get it to go barely stopping. Great place for men's or women's groups to meet for breakfast, lunch or an early dinner
