If you are looking for someone to cater your event who will actually provide you good food, I…read morehighly recommend coming to this wonderful woman by the name of Sunny. I have never seen someone put in so much effort into her dishes, even to the tiniest detail. For example, she refuses to use store bought lemon juice and instead will juice the lemons herself. She attempts to make everything truly a work of art and she challenges herself to provide the best experience at every event she caters at. I attended a wedding Sunny had catered and everyone was blown away by how good the food was, including me of course!! I've heard she has connections to so many people in the area, which is a great blessing for brides and everyone else looking to host a great event. At the wedding, she took a watermelon and carved absolutely beautiful artwork into it... I was astounded. She usually caters larger events, with at least around 50 people or more. Her team is also so kind and amazing, I'm definitely going to ask her to cater my wedding later on! ;)

We used Wilder Space to cater a baby shower for about 60 people this past weekend, and they were…read moreabsolutely incredible. Every detail felt thoughtful and elevated -- from the beautiful displays, signage, tablescapes, and darling water/juice stations to the gorgeous paper products and overall presentation. The food was fantastic, and the vegan, vegetarian, and gluten-free options were especially impressive. Guests were raving about everything. The service was just as exceptional -- the team was attentive, kind, constantly refreshing items, clearing tables, and so gracious throughout the event. They were also wonderful to work with on budget, incredibly accommodating, and even helped with a few extras so we did not need additional rentals. Wilder Space is polished, professional, and truly top-notch. We are so grateful we found them and will absolutely use them again. Highly recommend for events in Santa Cruz, the South Bay, and surrounding areas.

We had an incredible experience with Wylder Space from start to finish during our wedding planning!…read more First off, Molly is so unbelievably talented, extremely communicative, and remarkably kind. I booked very early on with her and had many questions and follow ups. She always responded promptly with love, compassion, and a clear passion for her work. In addition, when Alicia joined on our team, she integrated seamlessly when working alongside Molly. We were so impressed by Molly's cooking (and overall hospitality and gratitude) when we enjoyed her tasting. We lowered our expectations when we assumed that food made in bulk for a wedding wouldn't be as good. I am so so pleased to say the food was just as incredible when it served over 110 guests. It greatly exceeded our expectations. Molly cooks with love. You can feel it when you're enjoying your meal. We got so many compliments from our guests who came up to us raving about how delicious everything was. In addition, Wylder Space did more than just cook! They coordinated linen rentals, set up table settings, and advised about the BYOB drinks. I truly don't know how Molly finds the time to be so communicative while pouring her heart into amazing meals and effective party planning. Molly and Wylder Space, you are a huge reason our wedding was such a success. We understand why you're one of Nestldown's preferred vendors. We hold you to a very high regard. Thank you for everything!

Melissa walked me through the planning process and made it easy and hassle-free. She easily accommodated different dietary needs, and I especially appreciated that they were willing to cater a fairly small party (16 people). The food was a hit, especially the brisket sliders, German potato salad, and the spice cupcakes! Thanks to Roaming Feast, we were able to enjoy the party without having to focus on fixing the feast!

I wish I could give 6 stars. Angela's food was amazing - it's been five days since our wedding and…read morepretty much everyone I've talked to who attended the reception said they were WOWED by the food. We had a guest list of 150, and Angela and her team executed this very high quantity of food without sacrificing any quality or taste. We had the roast chicken, tri-tip, potatoes, asparagus, mixed greens salad, and rustic bread loaves. For our appetizers, we went simple and just did the cheese & charcuterie plus shrimp cocktail. I am so glad we went simple and "bare bones", because everything was well prepared, well presented, and delicious. And we still had a lot of leftovers!! Angela was also great to work with - very responsive and well communicative throughout the process. And her staff on site was fantastic - they did bussing and made sure everyone was satisfied with their meals. They also made sure that me and my groom had a chance to eat - which I have heard a lot of couples say they never get to eat the food at their wedding (I was determined to - it's the most expensive meal you'll ever have!!). The price was less than what other caterers charge, but with all the service and additional fees it still comes out to a pretty penny. But I'd do it again, because honestly there were no complaints from guests. And it's worth spending money for good food, good service, and happy guests. I'd recommend Angela blessing for any wedding or special event - glad I found her on Yelp!

Angela catered our wedding at Roaring Camp Railroads July 2024 and we were blown away by the food!…read moreHer menu was super diverse and she was great to work with to create our menu. We had 140 guests and everyone was raving about the food. The meatballs are delicious and people were loving the wild rice basmati. We had chicken, tri tip, and salmon and all were cooked perfectly. My pet peeve is that the proteins, especially chicken, is dry at weddings and I was so happy that didn't happen at mine. They were also saying the curried carrots were delicious. Everyone was super impressed and that was one of my non-negotiables for the wedding - to have stellar food - and Angela delivered. Her staff was so nice and incredible and I would highly recommend for any event! Thank you Angela + team for making our wedding unforgettable!

When we came out on the dance floor to do our first dance we were then supposed to go straight into dinner. Our coordinator had us sit down at the head table for h'ordeurves first. As I sat down I realized why. The food buffet was not yet set up! So we waited some awkward moments till we went to the buffet. The food was cold. It was flavorful and exactly what we remembered from the tasting but some flavor was lost due to the temperature. I looked around to see some very nice but very stressed servers but no chef. I had no idea that Denna would not be attending our wedding! I assumed she would be there overseeing our event! Also I had left instructions via email to her that our sangria needed sparkling water added once in arrived. It was never added and our coordinator had to go table to table to pour it into people's glasses. This caused us to run out of sangria early. We had to mix it ourselves morning of in order to even offer it. So was disappointed that the one job they had was forgotten. So glad everyone had better luck than we did. Maybe we had her on an off day.

Breakfast burritos, and if so, which one? Or do I go breakfast sandwich? I do love a good biscuit afterall. I had originally come across Busy Bee's on Yelp and was drawn in by their massive cinnamon roll, so that was a must. Perfect for sharing too, since it is so big. For my main breakfast though, I got the Biscuit Sandwich, which was massive. It was loaded up with bacon and the scrambled egg spilling over the side. Made me full for many hours, but was so worth it. Came here on a Saturday morning and the place was poppin'. Time for hot breakfast items to come out was about 20 minutes after ordering. Luckily that did not include the cinnamon roll, which we got right away. I had planned on only taking a bite or two and saving the rest to share with others later, but it was so good I ended up taking about 5 bites before saving the rest. Can't wait to come back here and try some of the breakfast burritos. They have some very unique options you don't typically see, so excited to see if they taste as good as they sound!

Order inside, grab a pager, and pick up at the window. Do I care? Not really. The food is quite good. Let's start with the biscuit. It's HUGE, moist and flaky. The honey chipotle sauce doesn't work for me but honey butter is fine, even if it's a bit sweet. I'd prefer salted butter on this very good biscuit. Old Faithful: voted best breakfast burrito a few years back and it's good but best ??? I don't know. The bacon and veggies are much better than the ham or sausage. Biscuit Sandwich: the flaky large biscuit can make this a little hard to eat and, as I said, I don't love the honey chipotle sauce. The Capitola: Chicken salad sandwich on herb bread. Not heavy on the mayo like some places. Defn repeatable. Mixed berry muffin: the berries were fresh but the muffin itself didn't stand out. Probably need to try the cinnamon roll. Staff is friendly.

The food was so good and our guests raved about it even after the event. We opted for a multi course plated service and everything was delicious, presented so beautifully and made fresh local ingredients that truly wowed us all. I highly recommend their short ribs, baked havarti oysters, and do not pass on Bruces famous brownies! We absolutely loved how great the team was to work with as well. From the very beginning Bruce listened to the tastes/foods that were important to us and delivered on our special day. Jordan was a true hero handling our event rentals and making sure we had everything we needed for our bar service. Both were very responsive the entire time, and even hosted us for a tasting a few months prior to the event allowing us to sample what we were getting ourselves in to. I'd like to add that we also played a round of golf with them- these guys really love what they do and the people that they get to work with and it was really special for us to gain friends along the way. Thank you guys again for such a wonderful experience and we can't wait to work with you again soon!

On the day of the wedding, the three person team that worked that day were very professional and nice. Everyone had nothing but nice things to say about them and the food and drink. I had two delicious mocktails, one called "Snowtime spritz" and the other "Apple of my Eye". The second one was by far the favorite, but both were good. I forgot to mention that we also had a large cheese and cured meats board.

We booked Feast for a King to cater an 85-person backyard wedding and they did a phenomenal job!…read more Many of our guests told us afterwards it was the best wedding food they ever had. We worked primarily with Morgan Thomas who was very helpful. We had a backyard wedding, so Feast for a King set up a whole external kitchen outside of the house to prepare all the food. They did a stationary apps table and some tray-passed apps (the ahi mini tacos were a huge hit). The staff also set aside a plate of apps for us during cocktail hour as we were signing our marriage license, which was very thoughtful--since with all the chaos of the wedding we probably wouldn't have eaten anything during cocktail hour otherwise. We were able to provide our own alcohol and select a few signature cocktails, and Feast for a King provided a bartending team to prepare and serve the drinks. We got lots of compliments on the cocktails and the team also was able to set up welcome drinks that were ready for guests before the ceremony. All of their staff on the wedding day were extremely kind and professional (a few wedding guests mentioned this to us specifically). For the main course, we chose two types of paella to be served family-style. The food was fantastic and the family-style service was seamless. They were also able to accommodate all types of dietary restrictions with no issues. We had a ton of leftovers and the staff packaged all of the leftovers up for us after the wedding so we could enjoy it later. They were also able to cut and serve our wedding cake that we got from a local bakery for no extra cost. Lastly, they were also very helpful in providing in-house rentals, and coordinating specialty rentals from a number of different rental companies. We had a wonderful experience with Feast for a King and wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone else!
