The flavor combos are so unique but still accessible to our toddlers. The packaging is also very thoughtful. Directions for warming up and even garnishes are included. My toddlers inhaled the chicken stuffed shells and that alone was worth it for me. If you haven't little ones or hungry teens, you need to check out the family meals a few times a week. It saves so much time and is truly made with heart and soul.

I've been a loyal fan of Cherry Bomb Catering for years and have always appreciated their…read morecreativity, presentation, and the fun touches they bring to their offerings. That's why this review is a tough one to write. This year I ordered one of their charcuterie boxes, and while the presentation was cute (the salami rose was adorable!), the overall value just didn't match the $22 price tag. The portion size and variety left a lot to be desired, and I honestly walked away feeling a bit underwhelmed. I'm hoping this was just an off experience because I've had such great luck with them in the past. I still love supporting local and know what they're capable of--but for the price, I'd love to see the quality and quantity better reflect the Cherry Bomb standard I've come to expect.

He was trying to coordinate from NY. I was most happy to accommodate his request. I sampled several entrees and side dishes. We settled on a lavender crusted sirloin roast and chicken piccata. We paired those with a wonderful pasta with sun-dried tomatoes and rosemary. We also had a fig salad, vegetables, rolls and butter. The staff could not have been more professional and very well organized. I fully expected to cut and serve the wedding cake myself. However, they did it for me! The staff was friendly and efficient as they cleared the tables, served champagne, and cleaned up. I have shared their name and number to prospective clients. I could not be more happy with the food and service. Thank you Sarah and Kim and the rest of your wonderful staff.

Choosing Blend as our caterer was easily one of the best choices we made for our wedding day!…read moreWorking with Whitney and the Blend team was an absolute pleasure from the very beginning. They were always quick and responsive to answer our questions and the ease of scheduling our tasting was so easy! We loved that the tasting was an option and we both agreed this was easily our favorite part of the planning process. The only difficult aspect was selecting final proteins, sides, and appetizers because they're all SO good that you wish you could choose them all. The catering team on the day of the wedding were so freaking sweet. They were flexible, rolled with the rain, and didn't skip a beat on timing or set-up. It was important to us to attend our cocktail hour (in lieu of photos and missing out on guests), but as an extra benefit - the second I'd finished an appetizer, the Blend team was magically at my side to give me another. Truly, 10/10 service! In an unexpected moment, one of the Blend catering staff had congratulated us on a beautiful wedding and had then said: "They say rain is good luck on your wedding day because it washes away all the hardship that's come before." I've previously heard that 'rain on your wedding day is good luck', yet I'd never heard the second part of the saying or 'why' it's good luck. She couldn't have known our story, but my husband's a Marine and we've been together for 11 years through countless deployments, exercises, and overseas assignments. Her sharing that with us meant so much and it's stuck as one of the profound moments where I felt incredibly present and rooted on that day. Not only that moment, but all of the Blend staff were so kind and present with all our guests. I would see them laughing and joking and our guests could not stop raving about how good the food was!! They also LOVED that there was the option to go back for seconds. Each of the Blend staff at one point had complimented my dress (it was black!) and they all made me feel beautiful and seen in so many ways. As the late night bites were passed around and one of the trays emptied, the Blend girls joined us on the dance floor and it was such an epic blast. On the logistics front, Blend delivered yet again. We had 2 guests with allergies and 2 guests with dietary preferences and coordinating their needs were so easy. We also discovered one of our guests had a tonsillectomy 3 days before our wedding, so we messaged the Blend team to see if they could make any last minute accommodations and again - they delivered! From the food, to the service, to their people - Blend is one of the best choices you can make for your wedding. I can't recommend them, their food, or their staff enough. Our final selection choices: - Appetizers: Korean beef short rib wrap, pork belly skewer with maple bourbon glaze (MY FAVE), and the tuna tostada (my second fave!) - Mains: The gochujang buttermilk fried chicken thighs and New York steak with au poivre sauce - Sides: Mashed potatoes (we LOVED the smashed potatoes during our tasting, but opted for mashed instead to dip the protein in, IYKYK), grilled asparagus. - Salad: Honey crisp salad - Drink station: apple cider, strawberry lemonade, and cucumber water (This was also such a huge hit for our guests that don't drink! They loved having more options than just soda or water.)

We hired All Wrapped Up to provide lunch for an outdoor trade show we put on in Sparks. Our…read morecriteria were to provide 2 or 3 sandwich options and sides for 300 people with little to no waiting time. We would provide the drinks. I frankly had my doubts that they could pull if off. But to my pleasant surprise, I was completely wrong, and as the saying goes, this mother and daughter team "were kicking butt and taking names. From the time the event started, the line for food was 5 to 10 deep, and plates were going out every 30 seconds or so. The choices for lunch were BBQ pulled pork, chicken, and sides were potato salad, macaroni salad, and coleslaw. When it was my turn for lunch, I had the chicken and the homemade coleslaw. Because my mother made a really good coleslaw, I had to ask how it was, and the server told me her mother made it and it was good. The BBQ chicken was good, and the coleslaw was really good. At the end of the show, I thanked them for doing such a good job and told them how much I liked the slaw. Long story short, I ended up taking 5 pounds of leftover slaw home and was pretty much gone by the following Tuesday. So I would definitely recommend All Wrapped Up and their coleslaw.

My boyfriend and I became patrons of Chef Michael Barone's other business, Walden's Coffeehouse, a…read morefew months ago and have always been wowed by the food there (which I've also reviewed), particularly the specials that he creates. So when we started planning our wedding, we were thrilled to hear that our favorite local chef also caters... While our wedding is still in planning stages, we decided to have Mangiamo cater a simple family style dinner for our family and friends to be sure of our choice. In short, we are sold! But for the sake of a more thorough review, I will elaborate further. We just wanted the basics... a pasta dish, a salad, and bread. We were served a baked penne with a spicy marinara topped with mozzarella, spring mix salad with cranberries, candied walnuts, feta, and vinaigrette, and crisp pugliese bread with garlic and herb butter spread. The pasta was a total standout from the vast majority of pastas I've been served, ever. The perfect balance of garlic, the subtle sweetness of basil, and bite of chili flake was spot on. Thankfully, Michael brought enough food for all of us to have seconds, or thirds. It was the kind of dinner that you are already full, but you keep eating just because you want to keep tasting it. An excellent chef can take a very simple meal and make it amazing and memorable. Chef Michael Barone does just that. He also anticipated several of our needs and details that I had completely overlooked, so I feel confident that Mangiamo will deliver for us on the big day. We have not only found a caterer, but also a new friend.

I live on the San Francisco mid-Peninsula, and decided I wanted a gourmet catered dinner for our Thanksgiving Day celebration so that I'd have lots of time to spend with Dad--without the challenge of buying, transporting, storing and cooking foods. I'm so glad that I reviewed Yelp and read the wonderful reviews of Mangiamo. Michael has relocated to the Reno, NV area, but still caters events in the San Francisco and San Francisco mid-Peninsula area. Now that I've had the pleasure of meeting Michael and enjoying his handiwork, I will continue to use his catering services for events at/near my mid-Peninsula home as well as any celebratory family meals we'll need as we finalize the Estate in NV. I recommend him to others in either venue--SF mid-Peninsula or Reno area-- wanting a delightful catered meal.

It was due to the seasoning. However, it was packed with a variety of flavors. It wasn't dry and loose, which is what I have encountered at a few other places. All in all, there was so much in it that it was difficult to evaluate what I was eating, which is a good thing. It means I'll have it again :). It functioned as a whole rather than as separated ingredients to give a complex flavor profile, which I appreciated. The fries were seasoned beautifully. Very savory. I enjoyed them. Cooked wonderfully as well. The tortilla chips in the nachos.. I don't know if they were made there or not, but they gave the impression of being store-bought. The quality was not great. The nachos themselves... plenty of ingredients that you can mix together, but the ingredients weren't like a complete package. They were like a pile of separate things. I expect a well-balanced mixture of ingredients. The layer of queso was below while the avocado was clumped up at the top. The ingredients separately were quite bland. I wouldn't have this again. The brownie was better than a flourless chocolate torte and quite large. I enjoyed it, though I would say that it's not as good as a more standard brownie. I wouldn't have this again.

Highly recommend the CUBANO. So dank…read more For a busy night we were sat quickly and checked on frequently. Our cocktails were refreshing and delightful. Stop in if you haven't tried.
