I used Havana Catering for the first time for my baby shower this past weekend and had a really…read moregreat experience. I had heard of them before because a friend used them for their wedding, and since I plan events for a living, I've worked with a lot of caterers. For my own event though, price mattered a lot, but I still wanted really good food. After reaching out to a bunch of places, I went with Havana because I had tried their food before and their pricing was very reasonable. We ordered full trays of adobo chicken, lechon roasted pork, crispy tofu, paella, sofrito rice, black beans, corn, poblano mac and cheese, and plantains. I did bring in one dish from another restaurant, Jamaican oxtail, just because I know my guests are big foodies. The biggest hits from Havana were definitely the poblano mac and cheese, lechon, and the paella. Honestly, the mac and cheese was the standout. Everyone kept going back for it and I wish I had ordered an extra tray. What really stood out to me though was the delivery experience. The driver called me ahead of time, brought everything in, and set it all up. He opened the trays with gloves, added sauces, arranged everything nicely, and even put out utensils and labels. I've had plenty of catering deliveries before and this was easily one of the best. He was just genuinely kind and went above and beyond, and it made a big difference. Overall, everything went smoothly, the food was great, and I would definitely order from them again.

I reached out to Vanessa for my 30th birthday dinner party and she was amazing from the start!…read moreGreat communication, had a big menu selection, reasonable price, and very accommodating. I didn't feel like it was my first time communicating with her. I needed halal options for my dietary preferences and she was able to find halal steak which not a lot of people will go through the hassle to do. On top of that, she was so pleasant to have around. Her food is better than any restaurant. Her egg rolls and coffee cake is the best thing this planet has to offer, and this is coming from a picky girl whose mom cooks the best food! As a type A person I was worried about many aspects about my birthday but dinner was something I wasn't worried about because of how on top of everything Vanessa was! I got really lucky with her and definitely recommend her!

Wow- can't believe I haven't written a review of this iconic Bay Area family catering business!…read more If you live in the bay there's a very high chance you've had Rafael's Catering in one of your social events. They have been around since I've been a kid and I've had the pleasure of eating their delicious grub at weddings, birthdays, baby showers (including my own), graduations, you name it! They offer a popular international menu which includes their trademark rotisserie chicken (my fave!) and several delicious Filipino entrees including pancit, menudo and a whole lechon! They also have a classic American menu (pasta, mashed potatoes, ham, chicken, roast beef, etc.). Their prices are fair and the food is so good! The owners, Joe and Frankie Santos and their family are amazing. They have a knack for simultaneously exuding professionalism and making you feel like family. Thank you Santos family for always providing A+ catering service to the Bay Area!

Where we lacked in experience or knowledge while we undertook setting up the experience for our friends and family, Nina knew what to do and had helpful recommendations and resources. Let's get down to the food -- it was delicious. Everyone couldn't stop talking about the appetizers, the delicious salad, the amazing entrees. we had this super delicious shrimped appetizer, a crostini that ws sweet, and cheesy, a salad so refreshing, and possibly the best braised beef short rib weve had. The experience with working with Nina and Tom was simple since the start. Nina showed great attention and detail to what we wanted. the next time we have another need for catering, she'll be our first stop.

Most recently we had a Halloween party with approximately 60 people. Nina worked with me via email and text up to the day of the party when she brought the food and explained how things would go and when the crew would arrive. We had hot passed hors de ovres and a large in door table with cold food and a great looking edible skull which Nina agreed to "try" making for me. It was a hit! Toward the end of the evening the crew of 3 cleaned as much as they could before leaving. They really helped make our event easier for us and a great experience for our guests.

The biscotti were also excellent. I wouldn't hesitate to work with them again.

Aside from the fresh sandwiches, the macaroni, meatballs, and banana pudding were also absolutely delicious. I highly recommend Sunrise to cater any party of all ages. Linda was so quick to respond to my requests, we even got to tailor some of the menu for the younger kids palate. Also loved how they offered a coffee station, which acted as a refueling station for the parents. From the ordering process, to the delivery, and actual food.. I'd give this place a 10/10!!!

Awesome food and great service!…read more Some friends catered from Vatos Tacos for a pre-wedding luncheon for some friends in their backyard. The mom and uncle of the owner showed up early to set up and start cooking. They were professional, kind, and very friendly. I was stoked that they cooked everything fresh on site and didn't just have food in warmers. We got to choose among proteins and veggies, and the salsa bar was awesome. Kids and adults alike really enjoyed the churros too! They boxed up all leftovers after the event, so we ate tacos for leftovers and froze a bunch too for later. The only thing one of my friends said was that paying extra for salad wasn't worth it because the salad was just from a bag. Everything was delicious, and I ate too much! I highly recommend Vatos Tacos for your catering needs!
