I warned him ahead of time that there would be many voices from our family offering their opinions left and right; well Chris handled all that like a pro! He didn't forget what the wedding couple wanted. He didn't let our family members steamroll over him. Come wedding day, I was hiding in a room somewhere w my husband away from the crowd and Chris secretly fed us signature cocktails and hors d'oeuvres. During reception, he had plates assembled for us so that we wouldn't go hungry. At the end of the night, his team packed us food to go!! Chris and his designer shoes were a godsend. The Chef too was absolutely amazing and gracious with the multiple changes our family made to the menu. Groom and I wanted an elevated Asian fusion menu that went beyond stereotypical panda express type of affair. We not only wanted to incorporate Chinese, Vietnamese, Burmese cuisines, we also threw in vegan, vegetarian, and rare spices that had to be procured from certain vendors. This, for a party of almost 300 people. Yes, we were THAT annoying. But Chris and Chef never gave up on us. We had 2 tastings including dessert/cake. I was so impressed with the tasting experience I thought, "what could top this??" Then on actual wedding day, to see all the incredible food assembled so beautifully for our guests, I was blown away. Food is one of those things people remember weddings by. It can make or break your guest experience. Give too little food and your guest will end up ordering take out to your venue to embarrass you (yes, I know of a wedding where that actually happened). Give older Asian family members mediocre food and they'll never let you live it down. I had countless guests come to me excitedly talking about how incredible the cocktail hour and reception dinner was. Nobody went hungry. Late night bites were also a hit! And can I just say, I have one of the most beautiful wedding cakes I've ever seen. Will be recommending this thoughtful company to everyone I know!

I have been planning events for years and I have worked with so many talented caterers, but Taste practically did my job for me. They were a one stop shop for food, entertainment, and decorations. They got all my rentals and flowers. They hired a band for my event. When i added two more hours to the party and two more bars they easily accommodated. Christopher, who I worked with is amazing, responsive, and worked with the parameters of my budget. I could not have pulled off this event without them. Their staff was professional and had everything setup and ready to go so quickly. The food was great and beautifully setup. I hope to work with them for many events in the future and I would recommend them to anyone!

Everything was completely delicious, very affordable, and the guests are still raving about the bourbon-glazed salmon! If you want a caterer with delicious food and a team that will step up to help you pull off a seamless event, go with Crystal Springs Catering. We cannot thank Bob and his team enough!

She was also very familiar with our venue, Kohl Mansion, which made the planning process so much easier and saved us a lot of time and back-and-forth. She even joined us for a site visit and came with us to the rental company to look at rental options, which we really appreciated. Toast was also extremely flexible and accommodating. Even just one week before the wedding, they were able to accommodate a change to our headcount. They also offered to flip the ceremony and reception chairs at no additional cost. We ultimately decided not to do the flip, but we really appreciated their willingness to accommodate us. Our guests had lots of great things to say about the food, and the cocktails were a hit as well! Everything went smoothly on the wedding day, and we're so glad we chose Toast Catering. We would absolutely recommend them to anyone planning a wedding, especially at Kohl Mansion!

Wow, Alicia and Toast, absolutely amazing! Cannot recommend this company highly enough. I reached…read moreout to 5 caterers for quotes for my event. Toast came back mid range on pricing but by far the best in terms of what they included and also what wasn't included. What they were able to include was coordination and delivery of rentals (plates, flatware, chairs, tables, etc.) and what they didn't include is a ton of unnecessary and frankly extremely expensive fees that other companies did. Another "right off the bat" win was how communicative and professional Alicia was. When we started going back-and-forth on email, she called me to clarify my needs and understand my vision. That allowed her to give me a much more customized quote that included all the foods that I liked instead of a cookie cutter version of a menu that was suited to somebody else's tastes. Most other companies were giving me menus with shellfish and prime rib, neither of which I wanted on my menu. After settling on the menu, the rest of the process with Toast was so easy. They took care of all the coordination with my venue directly, organizing all the load in and load out details. Day of, I showed up to staff who was prepared, competent, and went above and beyond to make sure my guests were taken care of. I wish I knew the name of one of the servers who was hands-down the best server I've ever worked with. He somehow knew my brother was the vegan, and brought him his plate right when everyone else was going through the buffet. He also had noticed a guest was not drinking and brought them a cup of the alcohol free drink to their place. One guest asked for a wine that was not on the table and he made an effort to go to the bar and get that for them. Just fantastic! Quality of food was also impressive. I did pass appetizers and a buffet dinner. The past appetizers were all excellent, especially the mango spring rolls with peanut sauce. Yum! I was worried the buffet food would be mediocre, but everything tasted fresh, well cooked (not over or under, which is hard with salmon a chicken!) and perfect temp. I had many of my guests mark on how delicious the food was. Thank you, Alicia and Toast staff, for making my birthday run flawlessly and allowing me to truly enjoy the event with no stress!

Dear Brian: I cannot…read moreeven begin to tell you how delightful the evening catering was strategically put out. The food was extraordinary and the servers were super great at getting folks to "splurge" and just have one more. Oh my gosh, most folks beamed with pleasure after tasting the Beef wellingstons, the lettuce wraps, the crab cakes, those pear tarlets! Some even carried on discussion on how healthy the appetizers were. Cheat A Little selections were really a hit! The greenery/decor made a nice festive touch that seemed to invite folks over to have a coke or a little wine and cheer. We had a live acoustic musician playing in the background, and the whole time was bathed in warmth and good tidings. It was beyond enjoyable, delicious, and great. I'm fairly new at the San Mateo County History Museum, so I don't have the years of experience that others might have to know how well adapted you and your company Cheat-A-Little are to these events. I am so pleased with myself for trusting you. High-five, a TEN, perfect score for you and your excellent catering business my friend! Under the Rotunda the set up, quality foods, and tall tables made it the finest, friendliest, most festive time. We are so so pleased. Thanks a million! Thanks from the San Mateo County History Museum staff!

On the day of our Vow Renewal, my wife and I were running late, and were pleasantly surprised to find that the catering staff had taken it upon themselves to carefully put out our centerpieces, which we thought we would have to do.

The team was extremely friendly, packed away leftovers for us and other guests, and was on top of their game the whole night! Ali was flexible with our last-minute changes, and Brian even drove to multiple locations just to find the same wine we drank on our honeymoon (which was a hit) so guests could partake. We are so so pleased. They were easily the best vendor of the entire event.
