Rafael's is a Vallejo staple. I threw a birthday party recently and the majority of my guests said…read more"This is Rafael's. Everyone knows them!" That alone says a lot about their reputation. From the moment Frankie and I spoke, the entire process was easy and stress-free. They were great to work with, the setup and breakdown were seamless, and we had more than enough food to feed 120+ guests, with plenty left over. Having Rafael's handle the catering allowed me and my party helpers to focus on everything else instead of worrying about the food. I don't know when I'll be hosting another party this big, but when I do, Rafael's will be my first call. Thank you Rafael's Catering for helping make her day so special!

The ordering process is simple, the team is efficient, portions are LARGE and they make it easy to modify items, pricing quotes, etc. Delivery and pick up has always ran smooth and the team will assist in packing up all leftovers because there definitely will be plenty. They have delivered to a hall as well as our home, they've set up in our backyard and inside our dining space. They stay communicative with delivery and pick up times, updates and ETAs of arrival. I'd have to say that by now, we have ordered every item on their menu - including the lechon, and we've gotten great feedback from family & friends. Rafael's has set the bar pretty high for quality of food and service. I recommend them to anyone that is planning to host a party and does not want the hassle of cooking, setting up, etc.

We ordered the steak…read moreskewers, ropa vieja empanadas, chicken and chayote skewers, mini Cuban sandwiches, twice fried plantains, and corn and pea empanadas. I was so busy during the wedding that I actually didn't get a chance to try the food myself, but afterward I received so many compliments from our guests about how good the tapas were. That alone told me we made the right choice. The delivery was also right on time, and everything arrived still super hot and ready to serve, which I really appreciated. Everything went smoothly, the food was a hit with our guests, and I would definitely recommend Havana Catering for an event.

I used Havana Catering for the first time for my baby shower this past weekend and had a really…read moregreat experience. I had heard of them before because a friend used them for their wedding, and since I plan events for a living, I've worked with a lot of caterers. For my own event though, price mattered a lot, but I still wanted really good food. After reaching out to a bunch of places, I went with Havana because I had tried their food before and their pricing was very reasonable. We ordered full trays of adobo chicken, lechon roasted pork, crispy tofu, paella, sofrito rice, black beans, corn, poblano mac and cheese, and plantains. I did bring in one dish from another restaurant, Jamaican oxtail, just because I know my guests are big foodies. The biggest hits from Havana were definitely the poblano mac and cheese, lechon, and the paella. Honestly, the mac and cheese was the standout. Everyone kept going back for it and I wish I had ordered an extra tray. What really stood out to me though was the delivery experience. The driver called me ahead of time, brought everything in, and set it all up. He opened the trays with gloves, added sauces, arranged everything nicely, and even put out utensils and labels. I've had plenty of catering deliveries before and this was easily one of the best. He was just genuinely kind and went above and beyond, and it made a big difference. Overall, everything went smoothly, the food was great, and I would definitely order from them again.

The lady who took my order was super nice but I do have to warn you the prices are a little steep. $8 for 1 bbq skewer? I didn't try this but I did try: 1. Mexipino lumpia (birria lumpia?) - This was delicious and less messier to eat than a taco. It had the same great flavors. $15 for 4 pieces cut in half was steep but it did hit the spot at the event. 2. Cali drip - I was excited to try this. I'm a big fan of calamansi. Sadly, this disappointed me. It was all sugar and less tart. It reminded me of the sugary kool-aid my aunties and uncle's used to make. It's like when you buy an alcoholic beverage and it has no alcohol. I'd love to give this place another try and maybe try the bbq sticks.

He has such a fun personality and really added something special to the whole experience. Joanne was also wonderful, and you could tell they had a great, organized team working together. If you're booking Paella Time for your wedding or event, definitely request Tim if you can. He's the best!

Watching the paella come together live in giant pans in the backyard was a huge hit with our guests and created a fantastic, festive atmosphere.

On top of the main dish, the tapas and fresh salads were delicious, and the service was seamless from start to finish. Our guests couldn't stop raving about the food (and several took home leftovers!). If you want to host a stress-free event with unforgettable, high-quality food, I highly recommend Paella Time.

We ordered the waffle churros with added fried chicken ($19). It was really good though i wish the waffle was a bit crispier on the outside. The syrup was very thick like honey! We also ordered the breakfast burrito with avocado and chorizo (added cost so it became $20). I really liked the chorizo, they grilled it so it was a tad crisp, and loved that it wasn't very salty. We also ordered the meat (chicken) handmade pie. The filling was generous, the crust though i wish it was a bit more flaky and crisp. This was just ok. Their latte and chairs latte were good too. Food came out about 15+ minutes after we placed the order. Restroom was reasonably clean and overall ambiance and decor of the eatery were inviting. We Certainly will done here again and definitely the chicken and waffle.were our favorite from what we ordered today.
