COAST CATERING REVIEWS

Truly incredible!!! Coast Catering delivered above and beyond! They are SO WORTH EVERY PENNY! So professional and the best wedding food we have ever had! Rachel was so incredible about answering our every question and made sure that everything ran so perfectly on the day! Truly a nobrainer - HIRE THESE WONDERFUL HUMANS!

From start to finish, they did an outstanding job with my corporate event in Del Mar. Tricia was excellent to work with along the way and the night of waitstaff was top notch. The food was delicious and the presentation was beautiful! If you need a caterer in the San Diego area, I highly recommend them!

We used Coast for our wedding the other weekend and it was awesome. Our guests were happy and well-fed, we got many compliments on the food. I especially want to call out the tuna tacos and the grilled cheese apps as crowd favorites!

FLAVOR CHEF CATERING REVIEWS

Their catering service is amazing. The coordinator Madison was so delightful to work with. She was very accommodating and nice about planning everything together. The chef and the staff came early to our house and set up everything on time and were very nice. Everybody at the party complimented the service, food, and the setup. They all asked me where I found them! :D I would love to use them again and again for future events. I wholeheartedly recommend Flavor Chef Catering!

We employed Flavor Chef Catering for our recent Christmas party with 54 guests in our home in Ramona. The team they sent were outstanding in their efforts to ensure our party was a success. We will definitely use their services in future and highly recommend Flavor Chef Catering to anyone planning an event.

We did a fun casual event at Locked Adventures - Escape Room Games and had Flavors Chef cater our company team builder. I was very happy with the food and service. They will definitely be doing more company events for ImprimisRx!!!

RED TAIL CATERING REVIEWS

James and his team are amazing! My husband and I got married on September 5, 2021 at Los Willows and Redtail Catering did all our food. We had plated meals with the filet and sea bass. Oh my gosh, they were SO delicious! The appetizers they made were incredible as well! We didn't want a big cake so James offered to make us a cutting cake for pictures. We aren't the biggest fans of cake but it tasted so good. James and his team also did our chocolate fountain desert table. We chose the Ultimate Chocolate Fountain which included 3 fountains: white chocolate, milk chocolate and dark chocolate. It also included SO many dipping options, everyone could find something they loved! Thank you so much James, you and your team made our wedding truly spectacular!!

We went with Red Tail Catering for our backyard wedding reception. What initially drew us to them was the Santa Maria tri-tip option. We really wanted to do something very "West Coast" for our wedding and this was the perfect dish! Our tasting was INCREDIBLE, and perhaps our best surprise was the quality of the Vegetable Wellington they have as a vegetarian option. It is so delicious and in no way feels like a consolation prize. I was worried too many folks were going to want that over the tri-tip. We hired a chef, server, and bartender for 40 folks and were very well taken care of. Thank you to Chef James and his team! Delicious food at an incredible price point.

We used Red Tail Catering for our daughter's birthday celebration and for our wedding, great food and presentation, always on-time, professional staff, owner James is very experienced and a super nice guy. Overall they are great for jobs both big and small.
