Passion for Catering

Passion for Catering

(79 reviews)

You know when you host an event and don't have time to eat? Well, the food is so good (I promise…read moreyour guests will be talking about it) it'll force you to take time to eat (and even grab seconds!). Passion for Catering was recommended by a friend and booked them for our baby shower of about 75 guests. I wasn't expecting anything more than good food and good service but what we received blew away expectations. The team was responsive throughout the booking process (a huge plus) and offered an eclectic and robust menu. That's all great to start but the real test came the day of our event. Their team was there on time to set up and food was ready by the time our first guests arrived. The food was delectable and truly made our time with friends and family memorable. Just as Passion for Catering was recommended to us by a friend, we'll be recommending them to all our friends on the market for a caterer. *kicking myself for not taking photos but will update for our next event!

I can confidently say.....I will never use another catering company again…read more Passion for Catering is my forever choice!! The curated experience and top notch food is a WINNER! Priscilla is dedicated to making every event special. Always on time and communication is seamless. I've been using Passion for a few work events and now all my parties at home too. Looking forward to upcoming events and seeing what creative ideas they come up with. 10/10 Recommend!!

Pinx - Fruit platter and bagel bar

I had the pleasure of working with PINX Catering for a recent corporate event where they provided…read moretwo breakfasts and one lunch for approximately 70 attendees. It was truly one of the best catering experiences I have had from the professionalism of the onsite staff to the exceptional quality of every dish served. I was unfortunately too busy managing the event (and enjoying the food) to take photos, but the menu absolutely deserves recognition. Highlights included the perfectly seasoned Farmer's Market Scramble, Chicken Apple Sausage, Lemon Ricotta Pancakes with Blueberry Sauce, and Herb Roasted Potatoes for breakfast. Lunch featured incredibly tender Short Ribs, perfectly glazed and moist Grilled Chicken, grilled polenta, and the best honey butter cornbread I have ever had. Our guests consistently commented on how outstanding the food was...and this group is not easily impressed when it comes to catering. A sincere thank you to Pinky and the entire team for delivering such a seamless and memorable experience. I will absolutely keep PINX Catering in mind for future events and would highly recommend them to others.

We hired PINX catering for our daughters Bat Mitzvah. We Foods's perfectly curated for our needs…read more We asked for an Asian fusion menu. The food was amazing! Everything was on point and very delicious . The service from start to finish was excellent. The staff was very attentive and professional. I highly recommend this company for any affair.

Phulkari Indian Cuisine - Veg Pakoda 5/5

Phulkari Indian Cuisine

Solid authentic Indian food exceeding quality expectations and a veteran in takeout service…read more Phulkari Indian Cuisine is a top choice for us when we are in the area as their food is delicious, made fresh, and packaged well for on the go families like us. We have our favorites from their menu but they host a variety of curries, proteins, and small bites/street eats. Panipuri - crispy balls ready to be loaded up with lentils, delicious fillings and sauces, these mouthfuls are great for starters but you'll find yourself eating these throughout the meal not only because you're hungry but also because you just can't get enough of them. Samosas - hearty fried dumplings packed with potatoes that are perfect for eating on the go. Great by itself or with sauces and curry, these hot pockets are a burst of flavor that will stuff you up. Goat curry - full of flavor and a bit on the spicy end for those sensitive to capsaicin. Pair with naan or rice and you'll be golden, from the tastes you'll be experience as well as the heat! Butter paneer/chicken - the sweetness of the curry is subtle but the creaminess is what will win you over. Smothered over chicken or paneer, this is a delicious palate pleaser. Biryani - solid staple, flavorful and cooked perfectly. Great by itself or paired with some curry or a grilled entree. Salmon - delicious but a bit overcooked for my liking but in a pinch, omega-3s can be supplemented in this meal. Overall, Phulkari satisfies our craving for Indian curry any day and it's great knowing that the experience will consistently be a good one anytime those cravings come up. We haven't had a chance to dine in but would welcome the opportunity to visit for a sit down. For now, they're still our go-to for Indian cuisine when we are in the area. Unsure of where you'll end up settling for food or not having the time or space to cook an elaborate meal packed with flavors and aromas? Phulkari pulls through as the restaurant of choice!

EDIT: both of us had some stomach issues following our meal. Not horribly sick, but stomach aches…read moreand gurgling and stuff, general discomfort. Phulkari is under new ownership! New menu, new prices, new staff. Upon walking in they asked us if we would like to sit outside after seeing my service dog. I said no thank you (as it was chilly out) and they didn't push the issue at all, just sat us. They served us water immediately. This is a small thing but the water glasses were easy to hold and lightweight and I liked that. Anyways, they checked on us several times while we looked at the new menu, encouraging us to ask questions if we wanted. Rice is complimentary with each curry-type dish. Our food came quickly. When they noticed we had eaten half our rice, they repeatedly offered us rice and we said no thanks. Then they brought it anyways. We didn't mind, they were very eager to give good service and to be present. They refilled our glasses once they got low. At the end of the meal they came over and discussed the food with us, let us know about the new ownership and how they've changed the menu, and that they are using all fresh ingredients. They seem very eager to provide good food and service. The dishes were both flavorful. The vegetables in them were fresh tasting. Neither was at all spicy-- afterwards they let us know that they are doing all the dishes mild (Castro valley lol) so if you like your Indian food spicy you will need to tell them explicitly when you order.

Talavera Tacos - Mi Salsa Es su Salsa

O'Brien Tract, Fairgrounds

So happy I ended up going with Talavera Tacos for my 80+ person event this past weekend. I booked…read morethem for tacos and churros and also sprung for a 10-person vegetarian option. The taco service came with pollo, al pastor, and carne asada. The churros came freshly fried and served. The side dishes and sauces were beautifully displayed on a table to the side of where they set up with all the fixings and various spice levels of salsas (mild verde, medium creamy orange sauce, and hot red salsa - all delicious). There was a ridiculously large amount of rice and beans as well. Tortillas were freshly warmed on the griddle before they assembled each taco for our guests, which made for a delicious taco meal. Communication was consistently prompt, clear, and friendly all across the board from emails with booking details to calls for morning-of arrival and setup. That crew is on top of their game. The set up was great, the service was fantastic, and the food was really delicious. We had lots of leftover food and they packed it all neatly and efficiently. I didn't have to worry about containers for them - they did it all. A thousand thank-you to AnaLesia for the most excellent communication, and Frankie and Sofia for flawless and the absolute friendliest day-of service. My guests were so happy and so was I!

This review is very belated. We had Talaveras Tacos cater an event for ~70 people at a park last…read moresummer. They were wonderful to work with, from start to finish: very responsive to our initial inquiries, pricing was as expected, and the team showed up on time and was ready to serve food on time. They also packed up the leftovers before they left so that latecomers could still eat. My only critique was that the elotes didn't look like the pic on Yelp. But everything was delicious, and people were going back for more!
