    Salsa/guacamole bar was a hit!

    Delicious, quality, and unique tacos delivered with a smile! Paulo and Vannia catered our wedding at the Palm Park Beach House, and I couldn't say enough great things about them! Post-wedding, our guests raved about the caterer, a couple stating that the shrimp taco was their favorite. We were left impressed by their kindness, dedication, quality of food, and attention to detail! 110% would recommend, they're rated #1 for a reason

    Paulo at work!!

    We were so happy to have Blue Corn Tacos cater the wedding rehearsal dinner for our daughter! The food was absolutely amazing! The tacos are huge, and so delicious! We had 50 guests and they were served quickly. Paulo & Vannia set up such a beautiful presentation, this is not your average taco cart!! I recommend wholeheartedly

    Pop up at Old Town Coffee!
    Richie D.

    ¡Ay Caramba! I had been stalking the Blue Corn Tacos husband and wife team (Paulo and Vannia) on Instagram to see where they would land next. I had the opportunity to try them out during a pop-up event at Old Town Coffee in Goleta--and I'm so glad I did! They started serving at 11 am and they were slammed straight through until they ran out at 1:30 pm. The demand was high and fierce! Business folks, entrepreneurs and college students alike showed up to enjoy their tacos. Vannia is super friendly, outgoing and has a elephant-like memory for details. When I asked for extra cilantro, she was sure to make it happen. I ordered their slightly larger Ranchero taco (steak, pinto beans, guacamole, pico de gallo and feta cheese; $6) and their daily taco special of Camarón (marinated shrimp, shredded cabbage, cucumber salsa, sriracha sauce; $6). Both were absolutely delicious, perfectly seasoned and unique. Although the tacos already come with sauces on top, there are additional salsas and limes available. Their Roja salsa has to be one of the best salsas I have ever eaten. It was slightly spicy but had all the flavor and more than one would expect. There was so much complexity to it that I can only imagine if Vannia made a molé! On a similar note, I would also drizzle their Almond salsa on anything and everything if I had the opportunity. While Vannia takes requests and payment, Paulo works the grill quickly and efficiently. He lightly browns the homemade corn tortillas which is the perfect base. Obviously using blue corn tortillas and being mobile makes Blue Corn Taco Catering stand apart from competition like Corazón Cocina. If you're curious why there's a craze for blue corn chips and tortillas, it's simple: they're healthier. Blue corn tortillas contain twenty-percent more protein than their white corn counterparts, plus they also have less starch and a lower glycemic index for diabetics. Win-win! I absolutely love that they make the salsas, blue corn tortillas and meat marinades all at home and by hand! You can tell too. Yes, they aren't as affordable as a taquero would be on the corner of Milpas Street, but the product truly stands out. For me, small details like a fresh flower bouquet on their table makes all the difference. It doesn't get more local or small scale than this folks. Support them! A few tips: - They are at Low Pigeon Coffee Roasters every Saturday. Otherwise, follow them on Instagram to find where they're serving next. - All credit card transaction have a 50 cent charge, otherwise they accept cash. - Don't miss out on the additional salsa! I am hoping they will provide chopped cilantro next to the limes down the road. (Me oíste, Paulo?) - They can be hired for any events or parties.

    Al pastor taco and sweet potatoe taco

    I was very impressed! The tacos were delicious. I went to a Halloween party where Blue Corn Tacos was catering. The invite said taco truck, so I was expecting a typical taco truck feast. Instead I was handed 2 gourmet tacos. The al pastor taco had chunks of pinapple and bursts of flavor. The other taco was sweet potatoe topped with corn nuts! Yum!

    Vannia and Paulo were amazing! The set up was gorgeous, the food was so delicious! Thank you so much. It made our event event better and even fed us for a couple additional days!!! Highly recommend

    Paulo and Vianna catered our son's (and his new fiancé) proposal/engagement party last night and it couldn't have been more perfect! They are the sweetest people, and the communication and information was so professional. They were on time and the set up was so beautifully done! The little extra touches with the lighted jars and sweet congratulations sign were so thoughtful! The tacos were all so good, chips, salsa, guacamole and rice were yummers and all gluten free which was an important factor. We were even surprised with some amazing flan which our guests loved! A beautiful loving event made more special by Paulo and Vianna! We highly recommend Blue Corn Tacos for your next event!

    We had Blue Corn Tacos cater my sister's bachelorette of 20 people - our expectations were exceeded! Vannia and Paulo were kind, professional, and excellent cooks. Everyone was raving about their salsas, and how incredible the tacos were! If you're hosting an event in SB - look no further, these two are the best.

We ordered deviled eggs, bacon wrapped dates, jalapeno poppers and caprese skewers for the appetizers. We also did brisket and pulled pork with Spanish rice, mac n cheese, potato salad and coleslaw for dinner. And everything was so yummy! I echo what many others have shared in that Jorge is incredibly professional and responsive. Him and the team really go above and beyond - from ensuring the set up was done nicely, to the color table cloth we preferred, they really want to make sure everything is done thoughtfully. I got married in La Arboleda in the Lompoc area and had interviewed many other wedding caterers. Many of which charged an arm and a leg for every item - literally, serving spoons, chafing dishes, linens, tables, every piece had a markup fee as well for convenience even though they were all likely rented from the same rental company that I could have rented from directly. Jorge gave the option for an inclusive flat rate set-up and service fee which was so much more reasonable and simple. I am so incredibly happy with the food and service we got from SmokeMeOut BBQ and highly recommend them for catering.

My wife and I attended a friend's birthday party where Chef Ray handled the catering, and the food was truly outstanding. Having spent 22 years in the food service industry myself, I'm not easily impressed--but the presentation, flavors, and overall execution were exceptional. Every item was fantastic. The bruschetta with goat cream cheese was fresh and perfectly balanced. The seared ahi tuna bites were beautifully prepared, and the shrimp spring rolls with ginger peanut sauce were bursting with flavor. Even the flatbread pizza with Caesar salad was spot-on. One great dish after another--we were honestly stuffed by the end of the night. What stood out most was the attention to detail and restaurant-quality presentation, something you rarely see at private catered events. Chef Ray clearly takes pride in his craft, and it shows in every bite.

Quality, Dependable, Creative and Positive Energy - are all just some of the adjectives. We suggested a different watermelon mint salad and they kindly substituted this special order. When short on chairs, he brought us some and then when the Berry Man shorted us OJ, he got us fresh squeezed. Going Above and Beyond! Not only is their food great for big or small events, you are also getting a star sense of support and positivity. By working with them, you are supporting local business that was doubly affected by the Thomas Fire disaster both due to the loss of business during the fires but they also lost their home in Ventura County. Yet, they power through it and even opened up the fabulous new Mizza on uppper State street (near the turtle arcade of their Viva Modern Mexico). If you have any questions, just PM me. Supporting them means supporting local business and doing so deliciously! Thank you!

My friend Kelly M. did the hard work of booking, but I was part of the host crew and thought this dinner was quite successful. We ordered a buffet for 30 adults and 35 children, which ended up feeding 41 adults and 39 children, with leftovers to spare. The total cost, including tip, was a little over $2,900. Not cheap or anything, but definitely worth it for the food and service. DJ's came and set everything up, and there was a guy on site to handle everything for a period of like five hours. I didn't get his name, but he was nice, even helping me open a can I needed desperately to open, without the use of a can opener. The service came with sugarcane plates, forks, knives, and paper napkins, and a luau-themed table covering to put under the buffet. All things we didn't have to think about. We grilled the other night of camp and this was more cost effective, but proportionately more laborious. The food was good and covered a lot of bases, so everyone had something to eat. There were dinner rolls with one thousand pats of butter, many of which I now have in my fridge, and a giant catering tray of three cheese macaroni and cheese. My children were covered with these two offerings, as were, I suspect, many others. We got two meat entrées, which were both very satisfying: traditional Hawaiian kalua pork and grilled teriyaki chicken breast with grilled Maui pineapple. An island garden salad made for a nice side, with mandarin oranges, toasted almonds, crispy wonton strips, and ginger soy vinaigrette. Kind of like Chinese chicken salad without the chicken, and therefore well matched to the chicken teriyaki. There was steamed jasmine rice too, and a tropical fruit salad. Everyone had a great time at the family luau, even if most of the kids were too excited to sit down and eat proper dinner. DJ's California Catering took care of everything (well, except childcare) so we parents could just sit back and enjoy.

I have already talked to the company about the sour taste left in my mouth with a few things that went wrong on our wedding day, but I am still feeling the need to alert others that this place doesn't have the 100% perfect track record that it has on here. A majority of our event went well. However my husband and I really regretted the small details (warm food, bride and groom saved apps, drink garnishes, certain rentals quality) that were supposed to happen, that were talked about in a phone call and documented on paper, but just didn't. I don't think they understood that I was deeply upset about all these things, maybe I phrased my email poorly, but regardless they refunded my husband and I's meal. Overall I am most upset by the service post emailed complaint. I felt like all of my issues were retorted and rebuffed. And it made me feel like I was wrong about my interpretation of my own wedding. Sure it's a business and they don't specialize in emotions, but it's a wedding..it's a high emotion experience. It just feels like a very overpriced for what you get situation. And I do regret using them :-( I wish we used a resturant instead.
