Terry helped me choose delicious and appropriate selections, from their many interesting and varied options, for an appetizer based buffet. Jeanette helped organize the room layout and made sure the day went according to plan. Both were helpful, kind and took all the worry and effort from my shoulders. The staff kept the food and beverages easily and continually available and I heard many compliments on the great tasting assortment and lovely presentation. I am very happy I chose CaterMarin and highly recommend them.

Absolutely exceptional caterers in all aspects…read more We had our wedding in May 2025 at the Outdoor Art Club in Mill Valley. We had one tasting with Terry and Chef Nick. They were so personable and kind. They were open to feedback and to expanding their menu based on our requests. We scheduled a 2nd tasting and got sick so we couldn't make it in person, but instead they packaged all of the food for us to do a tasting at home. When it came to the wedding they exceeded our expectations. The food was incredible and their servers were so professional and treated every one of our guests like they were special. Their effort and the quality of their work made our wedding such a special event. We consider ourselves lucky that they were available to cater our wedding and are 1000% happy with our decision to choose them.

From the moment I first contacted Barbara to cater my wedding reception, she gave me her full…read moreattention. Other caterers I contacted completely ignored my question of whether they could do BBQ and gave me their standard wedding chicken-and-salmon menus when I asked for a quote. But, Barbara called me up and gave me ideas from past summer picnic menus she had done. We ended up doing something else completely different (SF neighborhood-themed stations) based on a tasting we did at an actual wedding Barbara was doing. Barbara also went out of her way to accommodate our busy work schedules. I was really impressed that she met us at our home after hours for meetings and made no comment about our junky apartment. She had great ideas to supplement ours. She suggested a coffee bar, something we would've never thought of, which ended up being a hit with our guests. My only problem was with the pricing, which was vague, and I'm the kinda gal who balances her checkbook every week. I don't think she was being sneaky, she just wanted to simplify things with big lump sums, and it always kinda bothered me. Having said that, Barbara seriously took care of everything down to the last detail like I was her own daughter getting married and I never felt like I was going to be nickel-and-dimed for every little extra thing she did for us. And the food was unbelievable, even by foodie standards. Cowgirl Creamery cheese! Quesadillas made in front of you! Dim sum in huge steamer baskets! Very personable, and very busy, but always gets back to you when you email or call. I wish I could get married again so I could have FGF cater another delicious spread for us. :)

After I proposed to my wife, and we secured the Golden Gate Club for our wedding venue, they had…read moregiven my wife a list of caterers to review. She had contacted several of them on a Saturday, and two replied within hours. Barbara Federoff of Food Glorious Food was one of them, and my wife scheduled the appointment to meet in Novato. Her quote was a little more expensive than the other immediate responder, and I was whining all the way as we drove to Novato that this better be good because the traffic across the bridge is a parking lot at best, and I have better ways to spend my evenings then tasting food. But, I tried to be a sport because it's her day, and we made it there about a half hour early because the carpool lane was open. Barbara greeted us warmly, even though we were early, and gave us a glass of wine while she and her staff prepared the appetizers. After a few minutes, she rolled out the crab cakes while she talked about her business. Great, I thought, crab cakes. My experience with them is usually dismal because they are little more than a lot of deep fried bread and spices. I took a taste anyways, and after the flavors of crab followed by the right spicing flooded my mouth, I began to reconsider all of my bitchin'...it was clear this lady knew how to cook. Then after a tasty pasta dish, she served us tenderloin with pancetta that simply melted in our mouths, and at that point I had decided in my head who our caterer was. After the meat course we talked business; she assured us that she attends the event, orders the tables and glassware, and that it would be adequately staffed. I drove home with a full belly, telling my wife that it was Barbara's job to lose. All I can say is that wedding planning was a snap after we contacted her. She referred us to a 'young baker with enthusiasm' (read that as eager to price competitively) that made a marvelous cake, her contact at Beverages and More had our open bar stocked perfectly at a price that put hotel prices to shame, and all of the table services and servers were covered in her quote. In short (I know, too late), she was always responsive and professional, and her help took out all of the guesswork for food and drink. Truth be told, when you add it all up, I'm pretty sure we saved money because of her recommendations. Crunch time, wedding day. I arrived at the venue for pictures and she already had the troops slinging those god-sent crabcakes and the tables were set up. I showed her how we wanted our table decorations and seating, left the example, and headed out for the wedding. After the ceremony was finished, all was in order as we (she) planned. The room looked wonderful, and the table seating was perfect. The food came out promptly and the service and cleanup was professional. Since the wedding, we received excellent reviews about the food and drinks, and my wife still keeps raving about how much Food Glorious Food helped us plan our special day.

On top of the day of coordination, she includes check-ins months prior, a venue walkthrough and rehearsal coordination which I found extremely valuable to keep myself on track and have her really get to know my vision. She will ask questions you didn't even think about! Based on my specific experience, it was generally stellar but a few marks were missed at the beginning of the big day. Without an assistant, she was fully occupied with setting up decor downstairs so the prime management of multiple hand-offs, dealing with vendors arriving at once, crossing off key happenings on the timeline was not entirely covered. Otherwise, the wedding would of been near perfect. At the end of the day, she genuinely cares about her brides and works hard to make your dreams come to life.

Chef Jacqueline and her coordinator Peg were so great that we almost (almost!) want to get married again just so that we can have another opportunity to work with them.

We worked with Jacqueline a lot in the months leading up the the big day. She was friendly and informative, was generous with offers to help, responded to emails quickly, and was always able to calm my anxiety when I started to act a little crazy. And, most importantly, her food is INCREDIBLE. Everything was so fresh and flavorful. Jacqueline shares our interest in local seasonal organic food, and our menu reflected that. She was also receptive to our special requests (e.g. including an heirloom tomato station, excluding goat cheese) and adjusted accordingly. Our guests couldn't stop raving about the food, and we were all bursting at the seams by the end of the night. We couldn't have been happier with the result.

As someone who has been underwhelmed by most wedding food, I was just so delighted with the meal that was served and so were all of our guests! Everyone says that, but it was true! We had the most lovely tasting with Jacqueline and staff a couple months before the wedding. Tasting is the wrong word, because it was actually a full meal, of just wonderful food. I'm so happy we did the tasting because at your wedding you are so caught up that you don't get to eat as much as you would like! So to wrap up this review in four letters: R.S.V.P!
