    The Mezze Station was stunning and delicious!
    Michelle S.

    Many thank to the Continental Catering team who knocked it out of the park catering the Grand Opening of Cirtec Medical's West Coast Center of Excellence In Santa Clara, CA. Morgan and her team worked closely with us to coordinate all of the details, selecting a delicious array of appetizers and desserts for the event. The set-up the day before was quick and seamless. The staff were helpful and efficient at getting everything ready and our customers and partners raved about the food. It was absolutely a job perfectly executed at every level. Thank you so much!

    We hired Continental Caterers for our wedding that was originally set for 2020. We of course had to postpone, and postponing with Continental was so easy. We worked with Mike and then Brittney, who were both so great to work with. Brittney was always very responsive to our emails and with any questions or concerns we had, especially when we had to plan a wedding with changing guidelines! They assured us that they were taking precautions with safety measures, which we greatly appreciated. The food at Continental is so amazing. So many guests raved to us about our food, especially our foodie guests, with the taste, quality, and look. My husband loves their pear salad and was actually looking forward to getting it on our wedding day, and he is not a person who cares about salad. Continental is a preferred vendor at our venue (Los Altos History Museum), so they know the setup and everything, which was an added bonus. Our wedding day went so smoothly, and we are so glad that Continental was a part of our wedding!

    They did a great job catering our daughter's baptism reception. Kate who was the event coordinator made every thing easy for us. She helped us plan the menu which turned out great. Food was excellent and staff was very friendly. They knew what to do from start to finish. Even the people who run the facility we used told us we hired the best company. We are glad we hired this company for our very special event and will surely use them again.

    Watermelon hors d'oeuvre; lovely presentation.

    I just used continental caterers for my wedding in June, and I wish I could give them 5 stars. It has been a pleasure working with Mike, and I would give him more than 5 stars if I can. Mike is very responsive and helpful, and even offered all kinds of advices and tips for the wedding. He always responded my emails so quickly that I wonder if he has any break after he gets off work. He also made my special request of Sangria possible and they were very tasty. On the day of the wedding, he made sure that our food came first and saved boba drinks for us (bride and groom). They were also able to accommodate my vegan guests wonderfully. However, on the day of the wedding, they swapped the sides for the entree. For the chicken entree, it was supposed to be paired with potato gratin. For the fish entree, it was supposed to be paired with orzo pilaf. We purposefully chose that way because the elder people like to order fish, and would prefer something light and refreshing, such as orzo pilaf, to go with it. Somehow, on the day of the wedding, they swapped the sides. I have some elder guests complaining the potato gratin was too salty for them. I actually thought the entree tasted slightly on the salty end. But, I also have many guests complimented their food, and they really loved their salad. Other than that, they did a wonderful service. The presentation was wonderful and their price was very reasonable. I just wished they didn't swap the sides. :/

    They catered a retirement party this weekend and were just great. With Covid there was a lot of calling back and forth and possible changes going on. They were just terrific about it. Turned out we moved out party outdoors and the weather cooperated! Continental came on time and set up all they needed to and the food was great. Their team went above and beyond and I would recommend them to anyone looking for an outstanding catering business.

    The amazing Mike literally feeding me cheese on my wedding day - he made sure we were fed and watered through the night!

    We had worked with Mike from Continental to provide labor, some rentals, and service at our wedding. We got married at a venue that required a main caterer off of their preferred vendor list, however, we wanted Indian food so we had to hire two separate caterers - Jalsa for the food and Continental for the set up/break down and service. As such, this review reflects no commentary on food preparation as we did not use them in this capacity. Working with Mike was a DREAM. He was so fun and amazing to talk to and extremely patient. We wanted to supplement our apps with a cheese tasting and wine tasting table. He worked with us to select three cheeses and presented them beautifully at the event. This added element brought our winery wedding to life as guests were able to sample wine and cheese during the cocktail hour. While we were not present for set up/ break down, as far as I could tell, all went well with the help of both Mike and my planner. I didn't notice a single item out of place and the décor looked exactly as I had envisioned. Furthermore, since he had worked in tandem with Jalsa before, he knew exactly what items they wouldn't bring and was able to make sure that he had all needed inventory on site for a smooth operation. What blew me away about Mike was his attention to us, the couple. After our ceremony, he was magically waiting for us at the exit with one of each appetizer and our welcome drinks. He waited with us while we had a chance to taste our apps (and get some much needed food in our belly) and breathe for a minute before meeting our guests at the cocktail hour. At the cocktail hour, Mike made a point to find me with all three cheeses from the tasting to make sure I got a chance to try them after all the back and forth on cheese selection! At dinner, he led us to our table through a sea of guests to ensure we got our food and were seated without being derailed. He even knew exactly how to place my dress so it presented beautifully while I was seated. I cannot give enough praises for this magical Mike! He not only orchestrated our day beautifully but was somehow always present when we could use a hand (and made sure we did not have an empty glass at any point!). If I could give Continental 6 stars, I would. We are so glad we selected them (despite never having met them until the wedding day) on our planner's recommendation (the fabulous Denise of Denise Lillie Engagements). Judging by the other reviews, they don't disappoint on the food front either Please give them a shot when you look for someone trustworthy to pull of your big day.

    Continental catered our wedding at Thomas Fogarty Winery this past weekend, and we are so happy with how everything turned out. As expected, there was a lot going on, but it was so comforting having the Continental team - true professionals - managing the most aspects of our wedding. Our guests really enjoyed the apps, dinner, and service. I would highly recommend Continental. They host monthly tastings where you can try a wide variety of their offerings. Also, they go above and beyond catering. Paul and Brittney helped us with many other aspects of our wedding, from floor plan, rentals, vendor recommendations, etc. Thank you, Continental!

    Our delicious wedding buffet! Beef Tenderloin, Chilean Sea Bass, Potato Gratin, Artichoke Risotto, and so much more deliciousness!

    Paul, Mike, Samantha and Continental Team: Thank you so much for being a part of our wedding day! The food was absolutely AMAZING and all of our hopes and expectations were surpassed. We received so many compliments from our guests. And we are so happy we had the opportunity to eat the food ourselves. Everything was just as delicious as they were from our tasting sessions. We loved EVERYTHING. And thank you for all of the extra bits you helped us with, including serving our ice cream bar, baking our berry scones, and so much more. And Mike and Paul, we greatly appreciate that you 'took care of us' making sure we stayed hydrated, put plates of our h'ordeurves and meal on our sweetheart table, and your ability to figure out solutions with issues like our sliding cake layers. Samantha - thank you for working so hard on our floorplan, managing our Classic rentals, and keeping up with the revisions and last minute changes. After all of our emails, everything turned out perfectly. And lastly, I cannot say thank you enough for making sure our dessert table stayed filled and beautiful. That was very important to me, and I loved how the entire dessert room turned out. It was the perfect day, and you were a big part of it! Thank you so so much!

    Continental Caterers was absolutely the best choice for our wedding at Thomas Fogarty Winery last month. I would give Paul and company more than 5 stars if I could. I can keep the compliments going for a while. Every way you would expect your caterer to help make your event a success, Paul made sure staff went a step further. Continental Caterers did a wonderful job taking care of us and our guests. Food was definitely something that we felt was the most important thing in our wedding aside from the venue. I did not want to settle for average wedding food, especially since we were not going to have a giant Chinese reception banquet. After making inquiries and meeting with five or six caterers, Continental Caterers definitely stood out. Tastings were fun and they were able to accommodate changes in our crazy schedules. They are true professionals. We had no need to hire a wedding planner or day of coordinator. Paul is the owner and an absolute pleasure to work with from our first interaction to the end of our event. He and his staff are very familiar with our venue, the specific rules and regulations of the winery as well as the town of Woodside. Paul made helpful suggestions, ordered the china, linens, other rentals for us, coordinated with our other vendors, had experience with weddings of our size, not to mention excellent taste and ensured everything was perfect. Things came up the day of our wedding that could have been a headache were taken care of seamlessly and efficiently by Paul. Our wedding day turned out to be windy and a little chilly in the late afternoon. Paul and staff moved the outdoor reception that was already set up beautifully in the Pavilion to the Hill House quickly and flawlessly. The fireplace was lit to ensure a cozy and inviting environment for our guests. Staff working our event were incredibly courteous, kind, and personable. We truly appreciated all the things they did for us. Paul and staff paid great attention to detail and have unmatched professional efficiency and impeccable service in my opinion. Paul stayed for the entire event. We may have paid more for Continental Caterers but it was worth every penny. We love that we had the option to buy our own beverages. Many of our guests said the food was "the best wedding good ever" ~ simply delicious and beautifully presented, not to mention the exceptional service. I enthusiastically recommend Continental Caterers for your wedding or special event and look forward to the opportunity to work with them again.

Since my husband and I…read morecook a lot and truly value good food, catering was our top priority and Michi's did not disappoint! We had two tastings, one upon signing the contract and a final one closer to the date where we were able to bring along family and a close friend. They served us full plates of every dish so we even left with plenty of leftovers, which was such a fun bonus for us! Throughout the planning process, they were very easy to communicate with and were highly responsive via email. It was super convenient having them coordinate the table design at their warehouse, including the linens, plateware, and glassware. While the design meeting isn't a "boutique" curated experience, their warehouse has plenty of options to choose from if you already have a general color palette and vibe in mind. On the wedding day, the staff was extremely attentive and brought us hand rolls before cocktail hour even started to ensure we actually got to eat. The live hand roll station was a massive hit with our guests and absolutely delicious. I also appreciated how open they were to our custom cocktails; I provided my own recipe and li hing powder for a pineapple li hing margarita, which they executed perfectly. Cost-wise, this is not a budget vendor and is on the more expensive side. However, the full-service, high-touch planning and day-of experience, from the tastings to the seamless coordination of all design elements, completely justified the price. You truly get what you pay for, and we have no regrets. If food is a top priority for your wedding, we highly recommend Michi's.

The wedding went extremely smooth with Michi's team taking care of table setup, cocktail hour appetizers and stations, as well as full dinner service. They also went out of their way to check in with us and our vendors to make sure we were all well fed. Everything was cooked perfectly and was delicious. We're super happy we went with Michi's catering. Their full package service, which included linens, dinner ware, and setup helped make the decisions more streamlined and intuitive. We highly recommend them to all other couples!

While the food eventually arrived, the experience leading up to and during the event was fraught with unnecessary stress. Initial communication was great, but it trailed off as we got closer to the date. Despite their "quick response" phone number, my calls and texts went completely ignored. To make matters worse, the voicemail changed from a personal greeting to a generic one 72 hours before my event, leaving me terrified that we had been scammed. We increased our headcount from 65 to 75 a week prior. After being told this was fine, I was sent an incorrect invoice that ignored the new guest count and asked for a second $300 deposit I had already paid. It took multiple follow-up emails just to get a confirmation on the final numbers. On the day of, the staff arrived promptly and set up on time. However, only 30 minutes into service--with only 30 of our 75 guests fed--they completely ran out of cilantro, onions, and grilled peppers. When I followed up the next day, they claimed they prepared for "70 guests." Even if that were true, it wasn't the 75 we paid for, and it certainly doesn't explain running out of basic toppings after 30 people. I'm incredibly glad we didn't use them for our wedding last year as originally planned. It's disappointing when the service doesn't match the reputation. 2 stars for due prompt service and the guests that got all the food really enjoyed the steak & shrimp.
