    Pastor and chicken quesadilla (spicy hot sauce)

    Boyfriend and I have been a customer of his since his Koe's days (IYKYK). Always really good food and seasoned super well. Got the pastor/chicken quesadilla and pastor super burrito. Good prices, great food, very friendly and didn't take long for the food to be done. Highly recommend this spot!

    Pastor taco loco and chicken taco. Bomb!

    Bomb! Tender juicy meat with loads of flavor. Do yourself a favor and get a pastor Taco Loco! Wow! This thing is crazy good. Genius!

    Taco plate from our backyard party! Great food.

    I cannot say enough wonderful things about Obvious Choice Catering and the owner, Donna!…read more Donna catered a large corporate event for us with approximately 300 guests, and then turned around the very next day and catered another corporate event for about 50 people. She and her team were absolutely incredible from start to finish. Donna was professional, organized, accommodating, and such a pleasure to work with. She handled every detail beautifully and made both events feel effortless. And the food was phenomenal! We received so many compliments, with people saying it was some of the best catered food they had ever tasted. But it wasn't just delicious -- the presentation was truly a work of art. Every detail was thoughtful, beautiful, and impressive. It takes a special level of talent and professionalism to flawlessly execute an event for 300 people and then do it all over again the very next day. Donna exceeded our expectations in every way. The name really does say it all -- Obvious Choice Catering is the obvious choice! We would absolutely use Donna and her team again and recommend them without hesitation.

    We have used Sabores twice...once for my father's birthday and then again for his funeral service…read more Being Portuguese, it was important to us to find a company who could cook delicious Portuguese food and we found that with Sabores. The food is delicious! And the people are wonderful. They were attentive and receptive and on the day of the event when I asked if they could provide extra things we forgot to bring, they took care of it, no problem! And their pricing is affordable and competitive. Please consider them for your catering needs.

    I reached out to Kathy at Sabores Catering to find out if she could cater a Christmas dinner party…read more My dinner party was scheduled for a few days before the busy holiday so I wasn't sure if this was even possible. Kathy got right back to me and worked with me on creating my menu and was able to give me a price quote within a few days. They delivered the food right to my door at the exact time agreed upon. The food was AMAZING. I asked everyone to let me know what their favorite dishes were but they were all so delicious it was hard to narrow it down to just one or two. Our main entrees were the lemon dill salmon, the chicken with creamy mushroom sauce and the smoked tri tip. Everyone raved about the sauce on the chicken. I also included side dishes along with the Butternut Squash Soup. The soup was sooooo good. I would order all of the items again. I can't wait to have another dinner party and use Sabores Catering again. I was able to relax and enjoy my guests, not spend the entire time in the kitchen. Give them a try, you won't be disappointed!

    We reached out to Smokin' Yankee's BBQ to host a big business lunch with less than a month's notice…read moreand they did a fantastic job! They were the easiest caterer we have ever worked with. Bekah's communication was on point, she asked all the right questions, and she was ready and willing to help us with anything we needed including tenting for 200 people. By the time some of our other caterer inquiries responded Bekah had already provided us a detailed proposal for our event. That kind of service and responsiveness is unmatched! Day of our lunch she was amazing about updating us that her team had prepped all the food and were on their way to start setting up. That helped put us at ease that the event would be on time and we had nothing to worry about. Everything went off without a hitch and we received rave reviews about the food from everyone! We will 100% be using Smokin' Yankees for all our future events! Thank you Smokin' Yankees Team!

The scalloped potatoes were delicious and the poppers went fast for appitizers! All the guests raved about how good the lunch was and wanted to take pictures of the business card for the future!

    I will say that I've always been a fan of mobile food trucks as the majority of ones I've been to…read moreover the years have been tacos. However, I had the opportunity trying out one of the more well-known butcher shops to serve San Joaquin County. This is none other than "Fagundes Meats & Catering" which has been a staple in Manteca for decades. Their actual brick-and-mortar location is off of N. Main St/E. Louise Ave in the heart of Manteca while their food truck ventures out to various locations for a variety of community events. In this case, I saw them serving hungry patrons at the Manteca Watermelon Street Fair that took place during the weekend of 6/6/26-6/7/26. To those that know this business already is that they are famous for their tri-tip. In addition to that, they also have other amazing protein options including rib-eye, brisket, pulled pork, Italian sausage, linguica, chicken, and the order I went with, their pork belly. I ended up going with their "Pork Belly Kabobs" and went for the combo deal which included a side (I went with their macaroni salad) and a drink (I opted for a Diet Pepsi). Total price for everything was $17 (which included tax + tip); not bad especially at a public outdoor event. I will say that the pork belly was quite delicious; a little bit on the salty side but nonetheless still a fairly decent portion in each and every bite. I paired it up with their homemade BBQ sauce which had a sweet yet tangy flavor. The macaroni salad was just average for me as it had too much of a vinegar taste while lacking a whole lot of flavor. Overall, I enjoyed this meal as it held me through the majority of the afternoon. I am definitely curious to try their other meats if I end up visiting their actual butcher shop. Overall, the service was excellent considering I was at a busy outdoor event. The line moved quickly while the prices were quite reasonable, even these days where meat prices have become quite outrageous. With that said and done, I am giving the mobile food truck portion of "Fagundes Meats & Catering" an above average four stars. Hopefully I can make a future visit to their butcher shop in the coming months so stay tuned!

    The tritip sandwich comes nicely loaded with meat and is a decent bite. I'd be curious to try a…read moretritip order on its own to see if it stands out more. Mac and cheese wasn't at all my cup of tea- too bland for my liking. I've also never had potato salad with black olives in it... That is a "no thank you" for me as well. I'll be back around to try more menu items but for now, I'd say around a 3.5.
