Our contact was Oded Hilu and I was incredibly impressed by how quickly and consistently he communicated over the year before our wedding, along with the 30+ emails we sent him the week before the event. The food was great at the tasting and the event and they were able to create delicious dishes even with a variety of dietary restrictions. The staff on the day of the event was also impressive, as they were responsible for most of the setup of the dinner and ceremony, along with takedown and cleanup at the end. A very efficient operation that knew what they needed to do in accordance with the table arrangements we'd worked out with them. A number of guests mentioned how attentive the servers were with appetizers and drinks. Overall, fantastic service and fully worth the money for how smoothly they made our wedding turn out!

Our April wedding took place at the Brazilian Room, and Oded is the BEST caterer that we could have…read morehoped for. He was attentive to the details, consistent and clear in his communication, and a fun and warm presence on top of all of that. His staff are professional, friendly, and savvy. The food was DELISH: fresh, flavorful, and served thoughtfully by staff at the buffet. Oded and his sous-chef know how to cook vegetarian food that has rich umami flavors; he sources ingredients locally, and seasonally, by default; and he was flexible with us and our guests in terms of allergies and preferences. At the Brazilian room, the caterer is the backbone of the whole operation. Oded is someone you can trust to coordinate, to orchestrate, and to delight your guests. D&A

We went with Grace Street Catering for a private celebration dinner for 12 adults and kids. This…read morewas actually my first time working with a catering company, and they were very organized and responsive. They had a lot of food options, including vegetarian options and kids' menus, and they were able to do either a buffet or plated food. What we ended up with - PASSED APPETIZERS: - Sweet potato and kale latke with creme fraiche and smoked trout: my favorite of the appetizers - Seared scallops: small scallops with shaved daikon and micro greens. Scallops are hard to scale, especially at this size - Potato chickpea cauliflower croquette: great warm FAMILY STYLE DINNER: - Baby lettuces with compressed pink lady apples: not over dressed - Braised short ribs: a bit dry but quality meat - Wild mushroom risotto: a hearty vegetarian option - Brassicas: cauliflower, broccolini, squash, cannellini beans: a surprising favorite for people - Roasted baby carrots DESSERT: Plated - spiced carrot cake - not too sweet, nice and dense. They were great about lighting candles for the birthday guests for the event The per person cost for food isn't bad at all, especially as we ended up with a lot of leftovers! That said, the other costs do add up (staff, setup, etc). The staff were courteous and non intrusive, and they helped with refilling waters, clearing dishes, etc. They communicated well and were very professional. They were great to work with as caterers for a private event.

Truly excellent service from start to finish. We got married on the de Young Museum terrace (which…read morewas beautiful but extraordinarily complicated given the nature of the venue--members of their staff were so kind and flexible but many others were borderline hostile; I can't recommend it). Grace Street was the core of our wedding as they handled catering, rentals, and setup for both the reception and ceremony. Cynthia helped us understand the rental and catering proposal and process upfront. We had no idea what we were doing as we didn't have a planner until early much later in the process. She was never bothered by our questions. Will made himself fully available as we finalized our rental order. He was not only responsive but full of ideas about how to execute the event well. He acted like a partner in our planning, which we desperately needed given his experience at our unique venue. The team set the space up in record time without sacrificing quality. The food was INCREDIBLE--even better than we remembered from the tasting. We have received rave reviews about both appetizers and entrees from our family and friends (tough critics). I would so happily work with them again.

They even gave them some free samples, to which my nephew said, "If I wasn't getting on a plane tomorrow, I would definitely have ordered something! So good!" The food was absolutely wonderful: rave comments from everyone at the party! They were arranged beautifully. Had many questions about where I had ordered from. Turns out one of our guests already has an order in with them for a family reunion coming up! The menu is extensive and interesting. I had a hard time deciding as it all looked so good.

Everything they made was delicious and all our guests raved about it for weeks! We wanted to serve food from a variety of different Asian cuisines and they were extremely open and receptive to our ideas even helping us cook up a Kamayan feast (with suckling pig!). Brittany and her team helped scour multiple bakeries to find the durian cake of our dreams and Chef Richie made the most delicious ramen for our late night snack menu at our wedding. Additionally Brittany has experience working as a pastry chef and went above and beyond helping us transport our fragile wedding cakes for an extremely windy 4 - 5 hour drive up Highway 1. She really put our minds at ease as we knew she could handle / fix any damage on the cakes.

Potliquor is truly a cut above the rest, the creme de la creme. We loved that they are passionate about fair labor practices. Laura and her team took such care in helping us craft the meal to blend our Italian and Californian backgrounds and were very patient with us with all our changes and additions along the way. It's clear how much they love what they do and how incredibly they do it. Each course tasted better than the next and was so beautifully presented. And beyond that, they're a joy to work with. We really can't say enough good things about them. If you love food and it's important to you on your wedding, just book Potliquor. Thank you so much Potliquor (and we're so sorry this review is so late!)

My husband and I are endlessly grateful to Samantha (our main coordinator), Jessica (coordinator and office manager), Chris (owner and extraordinary chef), and their whole team for executing the most magical, seamless, and unforgettable wedding day we could have ever imagined. Culinary Excellence is so much more than a catering company -- they are a full-service dream team. From planning to execution, every detail was handled with care, creativity, and professionalism. I never once felt the stress of juggling multiple vendors, because this team truly does it all. Florals? Samantha not only understood my vision of a wildflower theme -- she invited me to join her at the flower market early in the morning and then personally designed and arranged every floral element herself, all while flawlessly managing day-of coordination. Her dedication, artistry, and calm presence exceeded anything I could have hoped for. Food? Absolutely amazing. Multiple guests told us it was the best food they've ever had at a wedding. As a Filipino couple, having Lechon (whole roasted pig) was especially important to us -- and not only did they source it along with the traditional sauces, but it was hands-down the best lechon we've ever had. Chris himself was carving and serving it for our guests, which made it even more special. Decor & Setup? Impeccable. They handled all the activities for cocktail hour, ensured a seamless setup, and brought my reception table vision to life down to the smallest detail. This team is truly one of a kind -- it felt less like working with a company and more like being supported by family. Any event we have in the future, there's no question -- we will wholeheartedly choose Culinary Excellence again. They made our wedding day not just beautiful, but unforgettable.

All the food was extremely delicious - every guest had a different favorite whenever we asked them. We had more than enough food for all of our guests, even when some guests went back for a third serving! They were able to accommodate all our guest's dietary restrictions (ie. allergies, gluten-free, vegetarian). The entire staff was attentive, friendly, and professional - even a month after the wedding, our family members still raved about their top-notch service and care. We worked with Sierra, Samantha, and Jessica, and what a joy it was to work with them. They were very responsive to all our emails and were open to all our calls leading up to the wedding. We also appreciated all their help with guiding us throughout the wedding catering process. Some examples include them helping us with our drinks menu, preparing us for our meeting with the venue, and coordinating the wedding rehearsal. We could not ask for a better group of people to work with!
