We hired Darren from Stoic Events as our wedding officiant for our June 10th wedding. It was so…read moremuch fun to get to know Darren and work with him on our ceremony script. We were looking for someone who could do a non-religious ceremony with some aspects of our Latino traditions. He was great at researching the Lasso ceremony and finding a way to incorporate it with our own spin. His initial outreach was fun and informal. It really helped us talk about our relationship in a way that was genuine and brought out the important parts to add to the ceremony script. He was willing to meet us wherever worked best for us and he was willing to change the script multiple times to get it right. On the day of, we had a few mic problems, but Darren was able to work through it and even the guests in the back of our ceremony seating said they could hear him perfectly clear without the mic. We had many of our guests say that our ceremony was the perfect representation of our relationship and personalities. We truly have Darren to thank for that! Stoic Events will truly take time to understand you as a couple. I highly recommend working with them!

We had Tres Bien cater our cocktail party at our house…read more We were referred to them. We are so glad that we found them as the stood out from a lot of other caterers. Their food options were amazing We contacted Elaine and she gave us so many ideas and menu items to choose from. She helped us narrow it down and get the menu we loved. The day of the event ran so smooth. Elaine along with Brett and Amy were great. Punctual, respectful and professional. They finished cooking everything in out kitchen and set up the food for our guests The food they made was delicious and presented in such a beautiful way. Our guests along with us were in awe of everything. Great company. Talented.

We went to Braised tonight and, admittedly, we haven't been there in a few years. Not because of…read moreanything negative--it just hasn't been one of the places that comes to mind when we're deciding where to eat. Well, after tonight, that's going to change. We started by sharing the wedge salad. I am a blue cheese girl, and this blue cheese was BLUE CHEESE. Rich, flavorful, and absolutely delicious. I could have happily made a meal out of that alone. We also ordered the calamari, which came with two dipping sauces. One was a sweet and sour-style nuoc cham sauce that was incredible. The other was a fresh, flavorful tartar sauce. The calamari itself was prepared perfectly--light, crispy, not oily at all, and cooked just right. For dinner, I had the pistachio-crusted salmon over vegetable quinoa. The salmon was excellent. The quinoa was good, but probably just not my personal style. My husband ordered the pork chop with polenta, and wow--both were fantastic. That polenta was especially memorable. We sat at a table in the bar area (that's our vibe), and we had the pleasure of being served by Orlando, a newer bartender. He was outstanding. From the moment we sat down, we felt welcomed and genuinely taken care of. He introduced us to a mezcal that complemented our meals perfectly and was incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, and professional. Top-notch customer service. This isn't an inexpensive everyday dinner spot, but the quality of the food, drinks, and service made it absolutely worth it. We had a fantastic experience and will definitely be back. If you haven't been to Braised lately, go check it out--and if you're lucky enough to have Orlando take care of you, you're in for a great evening.

We picked to sit at the bar area, the booth padding is very comfortable. The bar is nice and filled with all the liquors you can dream of. Our server was very friendly. I ordered the tri tip sandwich with fries; I had to pick off a few pieces of fat, but other than that was good. The roll held the sandwich together very well. My mom ordered the hanger steak sandwich, she said the meat was very tender , and she ordered the onion rings. If you like blueberry, try the blueberry soda, it's different but very good!

Let's talk about it…read more Being born and raised in Florida and being around Jamaican friends and family all of my life. This will do. It is very challenging to find good food in California in my opinion. Especially in the CV ( Central Valley ) when it comes to diverse food other than Mexican and Asian. So I was excited to smell something familiar. The Plantains were good and ripe. The meat was tender and well seasoned. The rice and peas were just that rice and peas. The Snapple was not complementary to the jerk flavor at all. It was too tangy and clashed with the spices in the jerk. That was my choice of course. To be honest. It didn't make me feel like I was home but it wasn't bad. The service was awesome! The prices well... they were fair considering the location and the food being served but it can be a little pricey so I say play around the menu a bit when choosing your food. Do I recommend ? Yes. Would I return ? Yes.

Finally got to check out the Visalia Farmers Market on Caldwell. I moved here from the Bay Area…read morelittle over a month ago. Now, Visalia is a nice town but lacks the wide range of selections and diversity when it comes to food. It was a breath of fresh air (not because the quality of air :P) to find Jamaican food here in the Central Valley. I love jerk food. Had they had jerk pork or better yet, jerk oxtail, I may have given them 5 stars (but I'm biased). No restaurant location (yet) but worth checking them out. I heard they cater too. If you want to try something different with a kick, do it! Cheers, Chungry Tom

Rosalinda went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed for our wedding reception!…read moreShe was happy to work within our budget and charged much less than other caterers in the area. Other caterers couldn't be bothered to respond to messages or send menus. Rosalinda responded promptly to messages and provided the kind of individualized attention that one wants when planning a special event like a wedding reception. I felt very good about supporting this small family business. I was amazed at how many different types of cuisine Melrose International offers. We ended up having Mexican and Filipino food with gluten-free and vegetarian options. Rosalinda was even willing to make a garlic-free meal for one guest who can't eat garlic! The enchiladas and Mexican rice were my favorite dishes. Rosalinda and her employees worked very hard, including cooking on a grill outside in the hot sun at our reception venue. Her staff was efficient in serving food and even put the leftovers in containers we provided. One bit of advice: make sure to read over the detailed order list Rosalinda provides. I didn't read it closely enough, and there were some differences between what we had discussed and what was listed. I take responsibility for not paying closer attention. There were just too many things to do at the same time. Rosalinda offered to cut our wedding cake (made by someone else) for no additional charge, something no other caterer in the area seems to offer. (They often charge $2/slice!) I would definitely recommend Melrose International Catering and Bakery.
