I hired a Chef Martin to create a special dinner for my husband's 80th birthday celebration, and…read morethe experience exceeded every expectation. From the very beginning, the communication was thoughtful, organized, and tailored to our preferences and dietary needs. The evening itself was truly unforgettable. The chef designed and executed an incredible 8-course tasting menu that felt like a five-star restaurant experience in the comfort of our home. Each course was beautifully presented, perfectly timed, and full of flavor--creative without being overwhelming, and clearly crafted with care What made the night even more meaningful were the personalized surprise touches woven throughout the evening. These thoughtful details made the celebration feel incredibly special and unique to the guest of honor, and truly elevated the entire experience. Beyond the food, what really stood out was the professionalism and warmth. The chef created a relaxed, elegant atmosphere that allowed us to fully enjoy the celebration without worrying about a single detail. Every guest commented on how special the evening felt. It was the perfect way to honor such a meaningful milestone, and we would absolutely recommend this experience to anyone looking to create a memorable, elevated event at home.

We had a dinner for 24 people, and everything was seamlessly organized and the chef was attentive and fun with all our guests! If you want an elegant and unique artisan food experience, Chef Martin and Capitola Garden Feast are the perfect choice.

Greenfish Catering was amazing to work with. I had plenty of questions about the menu, their…read morepricing, their procedures, etc before my event. They answered all my questions and were very patient. They were able to adjust and customize to suit my needs and were easy to work with. I chose a meat, a seafood, and a vegetarian for my entrees but I'd never worked with them so I was unsure of their quality. I asked if I could do a tasting and they were more than happy to accommodate. They allowed me to pick a couple entrees and some sides to try out and I picked it up and brought it home to test. After all that, they kept in close communication to discuss my needs for things like rentals of chafing dishes, tables, etc. On the day of the event, they arrived 90 mins prior and set everything up. Since it was a "drop off" catering, they had everything sealed with plastic wrap, lit all the sternos, then left it for us to unwrap when ready. We chose the chicken teriyaki, salmon teriyaki, and the eggplant green curry (vegetarian and G/F). I was worried about the salmon since it tends to overcook, but i was pleasantly surprised at how good it was. Not overcooked at all and super tasty! We also ordered sushi and other sides. None of it disappointed!!! After the event, they came and picked up everything. Really great tea to work with. Will definitely work with them again in the future.

Greenfish did an amazing job with the catering for our wedding. We had many people come up to…read morecompliment us on the food, including this text that I received a couple days after the wedding: "I have to say that the catering was the best food I have had at any wedding ever!" It really was delicious food, great value, and they incorporated our preferences, like our guests' dietary needs (including clear allergen labels) and requests for biodegradable dishes. They did our rentals and place settings, cocktail hour hors d'oeuvres, bar, a beautiful buffet, and desserts. We actually contacted Greenfish about 2 months before our wedding because our previous caterer fell through. But I ended up being happy that happened because the food was so good and so was our experience at our tasting, venue walk-through, and interacting with their team. Thanks very much to the Greenfish team, especially Mina, Jean, and Chef Daniel. We would highly recommend them for your wedding or other event!

I tried OTHER food delivery services over the years but the other food was not fresh, the portions…read morewere small, and a lot of it tasted like cardboard. I tried GOOD CHEFS a couple weeks ago and I'm hooked! The food is cooked the same day it is delivered and it is delicious! Seriously, if you order meals offered on different days of the same week then they come every day with your fresh delivery! It is packaged in a little foil lined bag with frozen water bottles. The price point is toward the splurge side for me but when you think about all the ingredients and variety you're getting for your health and how much it would cost for you to purchase those ingredients and then spend the hours making meals that -- at least in my case -- would never approach the quality of good chefs... Then I feel it is worth the investment. And, time is in short supply for me like most parents. Some of the meals were able to be stretched into more than two portions, like the beetroot lasagna. We've also had the tri-tip dinner and chickpea Florentine flatbread pizza - mwah delish! I especially love this service right now with two teenage boys who are hungry 24 hours a day and craving nutrients. The minute I finish feeding them and cleaning up they are back trolling for food like it never happened! Honestly, compared to my grocery budget this service will probably not cost me more than I was already spending but will now have ready made healthy food of great variety, and no waste. And way beyond my ability to put a meal together. Like, I simply am never going to learn how to make chimichurri. Which I just ordered for this week! And who thinks to combine watermelon, basil and feta? Yes, please. The offerings change every week based on seasonal fruits and vegetables, including vegetarian and meat options. They use organic where possible and all the ingredients are disclosed in advance. Support good chefs and our community members, who are actually the talented chefs on site, and purchase their supplies locally! Buy local!

Dear…read moreGolden Catering Management and Staff, I am writing to express my sincere thanks for the fantastic experience my guests and I had at our party on May 17th. My daughter was very happy as it was her graduation party. From start to finish, everything was exceptional. The variety of dishes was impressive, and every single item was fresh, flavorful, and perfectly prepared. We were particularly impressed by how beautifully the buffet stations were maintained and how promptly the dishes were replenished, ensuring that everything was hot and fresh throughout our meal. Beyond the incredible food, the service was outstanding. Your staff was attentive, and filled with a smile, despite how busy the room was. Please pass along our compliments and gratitude to the staff and the team for their hard work. You have earned yourself some regular customers, and we are already looking forward to our next event. Warm regards, Caron Furtado

Fast forward to today, I later found out from the bride and groom it was Heaven's Kitchen too! After we did our tasting with HK, we knew we had to have them. Thuy was amazing during the whole process and the team is very organized and professional. We got so many compliments from our guests about how good the food was. We had a good number of guests with dietary restrictions and allergies, but HK was so nice about it and so accommodating. They were able to substitute out some dishes or even prepare a special dish for those with allergies/restrictions because they wanted to make sure all the guests were able to eat. Our vegan and vegetarian guests raved about how happy they were with their meal and one of them said it was the best vegetarian meal they've ever eaten! If you're looking for a caterer, you have to check out Heaven's Kitchen! They were worth every penny and we couldn't have been happier with choosing them to feed our guests! TYSM Thuy, Chef John and the rest of the HK Team for making our wedding so memorable and taking care of our guests!!

If I could give more than 5 stars, I would…read more From the very beginning, working with this catering team was so easy. I'm someone who had very specific ideas about what I wanted (and also changed my mind a few times ), and they never once made it feel difficult. They just made it happen. Every detail--from the overall menu down to the flavors and presentation--felt completely customized to us. And the food... I cannot emphasize this enough... people are STILL talking about it. Every single guest had something to say. The duck buns? Gone immediately. The lobster and steak? Unreal. Even the vegetables were somehow a highlight (which says a lot). Everything tasted intentional, elevated, and honestly just so good. Omg and how could I forget the passed appetizers during happy hour?! They just kept coming out! The food and service were AMAZING!!!! What really stood out to me though was how thoughtful they were with our guests. They paid close attention to dietary needs like vegetarian options, low-sodium preferences, and individual allergies were all handled seamlessly. No one felt like an afterthought, which meant a lot to us. They even took care of the kids and made fresh chicken nuggets with a side of white rice (my kids' favorite foods lol). We didn't have to think about packing a separate meal for the kids and we didn't have to fight when them to eat what everyone else was served and it honestly made the whole night run smoother. Overall, they didn't just provide food--they elevated the entire experience. I didn't have to stress, second guess, or micromanage anything. They just got it, and delivered beyond what I imagined. Honestly coming from a Viet family I was really scared about serving catered food to all the Ong and Ba because they can be so picky. The food was NOT COLD. It was prepped in the kitchen of the venue, and even Ba Noi (the toughest critic -- never likes wedding food, not easily impressed by anything) enjoyed the food. Truly one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. Thank you THUY!!!! Everything was PERFECT! I'd have another wedding just to eat your food again!! lol

The process was really smooth and easy, Joe was able to customize the dishes (we liked certain sushi rolls and fishes more). Prices are great considering the quality of service and fresh fish!! The display was really cool and instagram like. The fish was superrr fresh- OMG - fatty tuna and yellowtail were the guest favs. The kids liked the salmon king rolls and unagi rolls too. The adults enjoyed the fresh Kumamoto oysters. Everything was kept fresh over ice . The guests was in awe with the fresh sushi, nice display, and welcoming vibes from Chef Joe and his team. Chef Joe was truly personable and a very jolly host, he even took a tequila shot with us! Pro tip: request extra fresh wasabi if you can.

The setup and travel fee was well worth it. Overall, the cute decor, special touches, and thoughtful service truly elevated our dinner. We will definitely use them again for future events.

She's skilled in a variety of cuisines and offered to curate a full menu, though we chose the dishes ourselves. Kerlin was responsive throughout the planning process and helped us adjust quantities for our guest count. She also handled grocery shopping and provided a detailed menu, which made everything stress-free. On the day of the event, Kerlin arrived several hours early to prepare and cook, and she left the kitchen spotless. The food was delicious, and hiring her saved us money by avoiding restaurant minimums. I highly recommend Kerlin if you're looking for a private chef for your event.
