Well he did not disappoint, from the appetizers to the desserts, each course was a hit. I am still getting compliments about the food served. I guess the best part of my experience with Perfect Chef was how easy they were to work with, nothing was too hard or complicated. Their staff were efficient and polite and did it all with a smile. Did I mention their cost was less then the other catering companies. I guess my experience was like the other reviewers....EXCELLENT. I would use them again and definitely recommend them to family and friends.

Everything was cooked to perfection and the food tables were constantly being refilled so we were never at a loss for food over the 4 hours of our event. I highly highly recommend De La Vina Catering and won't even think twice for my next event as I already know we will use them again. They came highly recommended to me and we have had many attendees ask for their contact information. Again, I cannot praise this group enough if you want gourmet food and fantastic service for your next event!

We chose Culinary Kitchen for our recent wedding in Julian, CA this past June and my husband and I…read moreare incredibly thankful that we got to work with Ashley and JP for our big day! Food and catering service were some of our highest priorities to get right during our wedding and Culinary Kitchen was phenomenal every step of the way. Our communication with Ashley and and JP before, during, and after the wedding was exceptional. From the very beginning, Ashley was very responsive and regularly checked in with us, which helped me feel less overwhelmed by all the catering decisions we needed to make. I tend to err on being extremely detail oriented and I asked tons of questions early on. Ashley was so patient and thorough with each email I had sent over even before booking. Before choosing our caterer, we did 3 different wedding caterer tastings and Culinary Kitchen easily was the best of all three (we're still thinking about the gochujang meatballs and the cavatappi pasta with fennel sausage!!). On our wedding day, the food service ran seamlessly and our guests often commented on how good the food was (guests were actually trying to sneak chicken tenders off the kids plates because even the kids meals were so good). Their team also helped us serve our desserts, did our bartending, and rented/placed all of our table settings, all at very reasonable prices as part of the entire catering package. The team also went above and beyond to accommodate all of our guests' special dietary needs while still helping us stay within budget and recommending a cohesive menu. One last thing - we did A LOT of research on different San Diego caterers before our wedding (I think we sent out inquiries to at least 10 other caterers) and Culinary Kitchen's catering packages felt the most "upscale" and comprehensive without leaving us feeling nickel and dimed for every line item. I truly felt like their team was on our side the whole way. THANK YOU Culinary Kitchen for catering our wedding day!! We wish you guys the best of success!

Could not recommend him and his team enough.

She helped me customize the perfect menu for our smaller party, and I appreciated her flexibility in adding last minute add-ons. Best of all, Ilona created the most beautiful catering table for the event and she truly took our "cutie" citrus theme to heart. All of our guests loved the food (especially the chicken and waffles!) and wanted to know who catered the party. I rarely do Yelp reviews anymore and this wasn't even requested, but Bits and Bites deserves the praise and more than 5 stars!

Luckily Ilona had a great menu of items for us to choose from to design a perfect brunch birthday. She brought everything for the setup (except the table/linens), plates, flowers, tier trays, etc... Not only did she set up the table perfectly everything tasted wonderful. Everyone couldn't stop raving about how beautiful and delicious everything was. Looking forward to hosting another party with Ilona!

From start to finish, the experience was seamless - communication leading up to the event was clear, friendly, and super reassuring. I did some other research on different companies in the area and this was the easiest to order from and get estimates. Day of, the chefs showed up early, got set up quickly, and were ready to go right on time. The food was fantastic and there was so much of it - we were still enjoying leftovers for many meals afterwards. Beyond the food, the entertainment really made the night. The chefs were hilarious, engaging, and kept the whole group laughing with plenty of surprises sprinkled throughout the evening. This is such a great option for a big group and made the celebration feel extra special without having to leave the house. Highly recommend booking two chefs if you can - it keeps service moving quickly and doubles the entertainment value. Would absolutely book again and recommend to anyone looking to do something fun and memorable.

We had a French country theme, and they created a beautiful four-course meal for our 30 guests. Every plate was artistically presented and adorned with edible flowers -- each dish felt like a work of art. The food and service were absolutely exceptional. For most of the evening, we were hardly even aware of the staff's presence, which speaks to how seamlessly and professionally everything was handled. They staffed the event perfectly, providing attentive yet unobtrusive service throughout the evening. Our vision for the wedding was for it to feel small, intimate, elegant, and deeply special -- a night where our guests truly felt spoiled. With Harvest Kitchen's help, that vision came to life. Our guests were completely wowed, and many commented that it was the most beautiful wedding they had ever attended. Working with Rachel was an absolute pleasure. She is truly a master of her craft -- incredibly detail-oriented, organized, and thoughtful -- ensuring that nothing was overlooked. We cannot say enough about the wonderful staff and overall experience. They exceeded every expectation and helped make our wedding day unforgettable. Thank you again for everything! Beth and Dean
