Tonight we had a fantastic vegetarian dinner. From the soup to main dishes, all was fresh, hot and scrumptious. We will definitely return

Despite that delicious filling meal, we managed to find room for a bit of Louise's amazing cheesecake.

We hired Golzar Meamar of All Purpose Flower Catering to cater a formal wedding dinner at our home. This was a very meaningful event for us -- both of us are in our seventies, in our second marriage, and surrounded by close friends who traveled from across the country. Because of past experiences hiring private chefs, we were extremely careful to choose someone we could trust. Golzar presented herself as "the one and only chef" at All Purpose Flower Catering and told us she had won a celebrity chef award; she led us to believe she would personally be cooking at our wedding. Only five weeks before the event did we learn she would not be attending and that she was sending a freelance chef instead. At that point, it was too late to find another caterer. We later learned that Golzar has no employees of her own and uses a staffing agency (Instawork) to supply all kitchen and waitstaff. When we asked for proof of workers' compensation insurance, she could not provide it and refused to obtain documentation from the agency. This left us exposed to liability if anyone were injured in our home -- something our own insurance broker confirmed we were not covered for. Throughout our planning, Golzar's communication was often unprofessional and dismissive. She sent three different "final" invoices, each with new calculation errors, and became defensive whenever we tried to correct them. On the day of the wedding, the meal was fine overall, though my fish was cold. Unfortunately, the chef left our cooktop covered in grease puddles that disabled the burners. We now must wait a month for repairs, leaving us without a working stove. The waitstaff also did no cleanup, leaving us with days of work to restore our kitchen and property. While our guests enjoyed the evening, the experience with this caterer was stressful, misleading, and costly. Future clients should ask very direct questions before hiring this company.

Island View Catering - Fresh and delicious ingredients!

I cannot recommend Island View Catering enough. Buckle up, there's a lot I want to say…read more We had a Sept 2020 wedding originally, so we were part of the postponement crew. We postponed one year so we got married in Sept 2021. I had to move all my vendors, which I did so successfully. Then, due to some unfortunate circumstances, my original caterer cancelled on us about 4 months prior to the wedding. I was frantic as this was a very competitive year due to all the postponements. I started reaching out to anyone and everyone and to my surprise, I still had a lot of options. I got on the phone with Avrey and he was the first person that really put my mind at ease and made it clear that he could and would do his best to mostly match the menu I had already created and work with me on budget that I already had. He was such a fabulous person to talk to and work with; I just felt really at ease and like my opinions and needs were being taken care of. I'm also in the service business, and I admired the way he was treating me as a potential client. I ended up signing with them and the proposal process was very clear, professional, and smooth. Then he met my wedding planner, and she also thoroughly enjoyed working with Avrey and his team, and that was impressive to me. Then comes the wedding day - holy crap - I had SO MANY people come up to me and tell me not only that the food was absolutely phenomenal (we had a taco bar and delicious apps), but that anyone who ran into one of the catering team members was so impressed by them. I had brought my own bartender, a friend of the family, and she also had nothing but great things to say about the catering team. I later found out that we ran out of margaritas that we had premade, and Avrey said great we'll make more. I am still not even aware of what ingredients we had and didn't have, but somehow they made more. So to be clear, his team went back and juiced a ton of limes and made more batches of margaritas, which they were never responsible for in our contract/plans. My parents and some family friends did a lot of the take-down of the wedding. The catering staffed helped them tremendously - again, not their job. They helped box up extra wine, extra food, and even carry it to my parents car and help them load. The food was INCREDIBLE, and it was so beautifully presented; the team was top notch. Your catering team really makes the wedding flow - if they're disorganized or anything less than stellar, so are your and your guests' experiences. I had so many people tell me that this is the best wedding food they've ever had. Avrey is one of the most professional caterers I've come across - his communication is impeccable, and he just cares about doing a good job. Do yourself a favor, call Avrey and book them for whatever event you have coming up. I only wish I had more events to hire them for.

And the menu was tailored to the bride and groom's tastes. The service was attentive, happy, and always in the right place at the right time. The drinks were legit (not watered-down sugar with cheap booze). And they stayed the WHOLE TIME so if a guest wanted anything more as the night went on, they were there to make it happen... and still full of smiles at 11:30pm!! Truly a wonderful partner for any event! Thanks, Island View Catering, for helping our friends' wedding such a success!

We hired New West for both our welcome party and our reception meal. The food was so phenomenal at the welcome party that multiple guests wondered aloud how the food could possibly be better the next day--and yet it was! Jeff created a true feast for us and our guests, from beautiful presentation to delicious flavors, and each dish featured high-quality, thoughtfully-sourced ingredients. Before the wedding weekend, Jeff was collaborative on the menu and took great care to feature local, seasonal ingredients. Thank you, Jeff and Janet, for making our wedding weekend so memorable!

From the very first phone call Janet was helpful, informative and inventive. We wanted something different. She worked with us to perfect a menu that we loved and our guests honestly cannot stop talking about the food. They go on and on and ON! That's not typically what people rave about after a wedding, but we'll take it. The food was INCREDIBLE and the service was five star. I only wish I could go back and have it all over again. Jeff is an artist with food and it shows in every bite. We trusted him to put out what seasonal and freshest and he did not disappoint. At our request, he also came out and introduced himself to our guests and they loved it and felt so special. It was truly a meal and an evening we'll naturally never forget and that cannot be accomplished without the fantastic vendors you have surrounding you. I could go on all day. You're in phenomenal hands with New West, just book them sooner rather than later. Many thanks and much appreciation, Leigh Ann & Brien

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.

Having tasted her Veal Tenderloin with Figs and Grapes, aka "The Perfect Dish" -- as said by Food Network's Celebrity Guest Judge, Chef Robert Irvine...I couldn't agree more! Her casual pop-ups at local spots in the Santa Ynez Valley and Santa Barbara area are incredibly fun and amazingly delicious!

I can't wait to taste what she cooks up next.
