She and her team were absolutely incredible from start to finish. Donna was professional, organized, accommodating, and such a pleasure to work with. She handled every detail beautifully and made both events feel effortless. And the food was phenomenal! We received so many compliments, with people saying it was some of the best catered food they had ever tasted. But it wasn't just delicious -- the presentation was truly a work of art. Every detail was thoughtful, beautiful, and impressive. It takes a special level of talent and professionalism to flawlessly execute an event for 300 people and then do it all over again the very next day. Donna exceeded our expectations in every way. The name really does say it all -- Obvious Choice Catering is the obvious choice! We would absolutely use Donna and her team again and recommend them without hesitation.

She even brought yummy arroz doce as a treat which was such a nice gesture and greatly appreciated. The food was truly DELICIOUS!! The caldo verde was AMAZING and just like my Grandmother used to make. There was so much food, we've had leftovers for a few days! We will certainly order from Sabores again.

Day of our lunch she was amazing about updating us that her team had prepped all the food and were on their way to start setting up. That helped put us at ease that the event would be on time and we had nothing to worry about. Everything went off without a hitch and we received rave reviews about the food from everyone! We will 100% be using Smokin' Yankees for all our future events! Thank you Smokin' Yankees Team!

Why would you not know that before wasting everyone's time and sending over a contract? I think because you guys got a better deal that day after already signing with me.

He told me to be careful not to spill it on the ride back to the office. When I got back to the lunch room and opened it, it was everything and more that I smelt and dreamed of! The combination of flavors and the sauce were so good. I was full with only half. Did I mention i added a salad. Standard, but you have to eat your veggies. But listen.

I will say that I've always been a fan of mobile food trucks as the majority of ones I've been to…read moreover the years have been tacos. However, I had the opportunity trying out one of the more well-known butcher shops to serve San Joaquin County. This is none other than "Fagundes Meats & Catering" which has been a staple in Manteca for decades. Their actual brick-and-mortar location is off of N. Main St/E. Louise Ave in the heart of Manteca while their food truck ventures out to various locations for a variety of community events. In this case, I saw them serving hungry patrons at the Manteca Watermelon Street Fair that took place during the weekend of 6/6/26-6/7/26. To those that know this business already is that they are famous for their tri-tip. In addition to that, they also have other amazing protein options including rib-eye, brisket, pulled pork, Italian sausage, linguica, chicken, and the order I went with, their pork belly. I ended up going with their "Pork Belly Kabobs" and went for the combo deal which included a side (I went with their macaroni salad) and a drink (I opted for a Diet Pepsi). Total price for everything was $17 (which included tax + tip); not bad especially at a public outdoor event. I will say that the pork belly was quite delicious; a little bit on the salty side but nonetheless still a fairly decent portion in each and every bite. I paired it up with their homemade BBQ sauce which had a sweet yet tangy flavor. The macaroni salad was just average for me as it had too much of a vinegar taste while lacking a whole lot of flavor. Overall, I enjoyed this meal as it held me through the majority of the afternoon. I am definitely curious to try their other meats if I end up visiting their actual butcher shop. Overall, the service was excellent considering I was at a busy outdoor event. The line moved quickly while the prices were quite reasonable, even these days where meat prices have become quite outrageous. With that said and done, I am giving the mobile food truck portion of "Fagundes Meats & Catering" an above average four stars. Hopefully I can make a future visit to their butcher shop in the coming months so stay tuned!
