    We used Foxtail to cater our wedding and we were blown away by their service. The team at Foxtail was so accommodating and helped work with our budget, but still executed such an amazing experience. My husband and I love good food, so we wanted the food at our wedding to be special. Foxtail created a the perfect menu for us. Our guests are still raving about the food and drinks! It did not look like "wedding food" - it was beautiful, delicious and unique. They also provided such great service on the wedding day- our servers, bartenders, and event staff were all so great. Highly recommend Foxtail, you won't be disappointed!

    It simply doesn't get better than Foxtail. Their commitment to detail, their incredible staff, their empathic and proactive way of producing an event made our wedding party the best night of our lives. From the very start, our event planner, Melanie, deeply understood our vision and guided us along the planning process to make sure it was executed flawlessly. She was a joy to work with, was able to anticipate and handle every obstacle with grace, and thought of the smallest details that would make the night memorable, joyful, and magically comfortable for us and our guests. I'll never forgot what it was like to walk into our venue for the first time and see the event brought to life -- it truly took our breath away. Everything was considered --from the design and flow of the space to the smallest details on the bar and on the food stations. And now, a moment for the food. We had a very specific vision to have Korean and Japanese food and a mix of grazing tables, family style, and food stations. We wanted our guests to get up and walk around and to feel like the food was shared and casual. Foxtail absolutely nailed it and everything was incredibly delicious -- the short rib bao bun is legitimately one of the best Korean fusion dishes I've ever had. I think my favorite food compliment was when someone said, "this is the food I wish I was eating at every wedding." Foxtail also accommodated our guest's various food allergies and packed food for my husband and I to eat when we got home. There's this incredible high-caliber of professionalism and quality that Foxtail leads with -- but what we fell in love with was their heart. Even though our event was far from their biggest or fanciest, we felt so taken care of and heard. Hiring them was the best decision we made and now, we just have to find an excuse to throw another big party so we can work with them again :)

    Beautiful plating of an October wedding for a baby kale salad with roasted heirloom squash!

    Where to even begin? Can I give 6 stars?? We just had a destination wedding on 10/29/16 & I am still hearing compliments about how beautiful and delicious the food was. I guarantee that with Foxtail, they'll exceed expectations and deliver the most delicious and beautifully arranged dinner course that will make you wonder how they do it outside of the confines of a normal kitchen! Our engagement with Foxtail was a very unique one (to say the least)--where I served as a three-in-one (MOH, Wedding Planner, & Day-of Coordinator) for a 3 month-long wedding engagement. For two entire months, I had contacted over 20 caterers from yelp, and with each one, I was seriously underwhelmed with either the menu, or the time of response it took for some of the account managers took to respond (some took 3 days to respond between each email correspondence!!). BUT, with Foxtail, it was completely different. From start to finish, Christina made sure that I was taken care of, answered my 23948732 questions so promptly (I'm a project manager, so I know how to ask tons of questions) and delivered a menu that I knew for sure would WOW our guests. At first glance of the menu, I knew this caterer would be the one. Since our venue was a private villa, everything had to be brought to the venue (including ovens, dinner rentals, tables, chairs, heat lamps, etc). In order to keep myself sane day-of and limit the # of unique vendors, I trusted Christina to source the exact type of rentals that I needed and she was seriously SO helpful throughout the whole process. We couldn't do the complementary menu tasting because I had booked a flight out on the only day that they had a spot available, but I had full trust in Christina and the Foxtail team to deliver, so I had no issue with it. Throughout the wedding, the food was so delicious, and the servers/waiters never left a glass half-empty! It was a beautiful night and I seriously couldn't have done it without Foxtail. I heard compliments saying that it was the most delicious salmon they had ever had (and mind you, these are folks who have been to plenty of nice restaurants, flying from overseas!), and I was so ecstatic to hear that everyone LOVED the appetizers and the dinner menu. They helped clean up more than they were scoped to do and left the place SO clean & even helped to trash our florals (which we had A LOT of). I am just so grateful for the team & for making my life so easy! They are a bit on the pricier side, but for a once-in-a-lifetime event like this--it is SO worth it. I usually never write reviews, but this was one I knew I had to write :). Thank you again Foxtail! I am so grateful for your team!

    Our wedding day was in the heat of the summer, so we opted for a tomato almond gazpacho. YUM!

    Rhonda and her team were fantastic at my wedding. We had 160 people and our venue was pretty complicated--a 20 acre property with multiple locations for the pre-ceremony drinks, cocktail hour, dinner, and dessert/drinks/dancing. Everything was flawless.. the food was prepared beautifully and was DELICIOUS. People still randomly bring up the wonderful family-style meal we ate that evening, and it's been several months! They were also really reasonably priced compared to other companies we got quotes from. Rhonda was such a pleasure to work with, and she made the planning process easy. Here's my menu, so you can get an idea of the magic her chefs can create: First Course Assorted Brick Oven baked Artisan Breads Green Salad with Frisee & Shaved Honeydew With Jicama, Radishes & Serpent Cucumbers, With Blackcurrant Vinaigrette Second Course Served Family Style Grilled Boneless Chicken Thighs and Breasts with Plumped Mission Figs, Braised Chard & Saba Grilled Tri-Tip Steak With Seasonal root vegetables & Cilantro Chimichurri Shaved Zucchini Ribbons Tossed With Lemon, Basil, Pecorino & Walnut Wild Mushroom Farrotto With Toasted Garlic, Reggiano & Chopped Parsley

    Great little beet, citrus, goat cheese salad.  Fresh and delicious

    "That was some of the best food I've ever had at a wedding". That statement from one of my friends (and a sentiment echoed by others) pretty much sums up why we were so happy with Foxtail, who catered our wedding in early January 2015. Breaking it down further.... First of all, though we had a wedding planner, Julie, our Foxtail contact, was like having another really key helper. She was keep to help us ensure that the food was the right amount, the service was great and we added those little touches (as you'd expect), but she was also so helpful as we closed gaps like lighting and rentals. We ran all of those miscellaneous vendors through Foxtail, who did the coordination. Meeting with Julie was a breeze and she was always quick and thorough in her responses. Our other vendors also commented on how detailed and organized Julie made our wedding process. As Foxtail is also an event company, they had a great set of contacts. Next, the service was immaculate. I've never seen such a "swarm" of servers on the day of our event. Foxtail staff was literally everywhere you needed them to be, yet also, not in the way. They circulated drinks and apps during the cocktail hour in an expedient and professional manner. And, during dinner, they were an efficient machine. All of the staff seemed to be experienced and there were no let-downs that I heard about. A nice little touch: we had a waiter, as bride and groom, who was assigned to us; a very friendly woman who stopped by often to make sure all was great. And, last but not least, the food. Excellent! We did a tasting several months prior and everything we tried was great. The thing I liked as a guy from the south was that their chef completely embraced our desire to intermingle Southern and Californian fare. So, we had these little plays on "Shrimp and Grits" (a polenta cake topped with shrimp) and "Chicken and Waffles" (a skewer with fried chicken nugget and small doughnut) as passed appetizers. All of my friends and family raved! On top of that, Foxtail suggested a signature His and Hers champagne cocktail (we only did beer and wine)..a really nice touch! They were crowd favorites. They put bourbon soaked cherries in the "his" so it was a bit more masculine ;). Dinner was great too. We did all family style complete with a rosemary chicken, a beet, greens and citrus salad, some brussel sprouts, mashed potatoes...and, the star of the show, cheddar biscuits with an apple compote. So, you get the idea...great food, great service, great staff and just so helpful. Do yourself a favor and give Foxtail a look. You won't be disappointed!

    Seasonal (Fall) Salads were delicious! With beautiful presentation. Thank you Patrick Hamilton & Foxtail!!!

    See all

I sent a request via Yelp app and Marsha suggested I send an email. This was on a Sunday and the event was in 2 weeks ! When I didn't hear anything via email or a call I called the office and spoke to Ben who apologized for the lack of communication and he would respond via email, which he did a few hours later. After several emails from Ben we were able to settle on a menu in just a few days! We were looking for a Hawaiian fusion themed menu and Ben & his staffto came up with a great menu. W Some of our many items that was a huge hit with our guests were Vietnamese vegan rolls, miso glazed black code, a toss green salad with Edamame and Asian dressing, crab deviled eggs, scallops spoon, chimichuri steak crostini, short ribs skewers, Asian style lamb meatballs, and dessert of fruit cups and mini cupcakes were perfect. There was a few dishes that wasn't as successful but overall everyone enjoyed the food. We had pre arranged to have someone to meet the catering staff early for setup but due to unknown delays they did show up until an hour before the service started which also ment they were rushed to setup the food but they did a good job to get the hot and cold foods setup before the end of the service. Overall they did a good job and the food excellent but arriving late to the event and poor timing to replenish empty dishes was disappointing also dessert wasn't served until most guest departed. We enjoyed working with Ben and appreciated the communication once it was established.

The tastings were excellent, and we truly felt heard. They were open to our feedback and made adjustments based on our preferences. The cocktail hour was a highlight - the food was delicious and beautifully presented, and our guests were raving about it. However, the dinner service didn't go quite as smoothly. We were running a bit behind schedule transitioning guests from cocktail hour to their seats, and the catering team served all the food before everyone was seated. As a result, our meals - and many of our guests' - were cold by the time we ate. Additionally, wine and water weren't placed on the tables before the food service began, despite having discussed our wine service preferences in detail during a planning meeting. My husband, my dad, and our venue coordinator all voiced their frustration during the event, and it took longer than expected for the situation to be addressed. Some of the groomsmen even took it upon themselves to grab bottles of wine and serve guests directly, which was helpful, but clearly not something they should have had to do. On top of that, far too many bottles of wine were opened unnecessarily, so we had to send open bottles home with their staff instead of saving them for another occasion. That said, our guests still commented that the food itself was good. We just wish the day-of coordination had matched the quality of the planning phase. With a bit more attention to timing and execution, this could have been a five-star experience.

For us, we were very set on having Chinese (or at least East Asian) cuisine for our wedding. Le's is one of the few catering options available in the Bay Area. Most caterers we talked to gave us limitations, said they couldn't customize things, but Le's was special. Christina made us feel truly special and carefully listened to us talk about the customizations that we wanted. She would add in her own suggestions and expertise into the discussion, and told us when something would have been too challenging. The final meal that we got was breathtaking, with many of our guests exclaiming that it was the best wedding meal they've ever eaten. In fact, some even said it was some of the best food they ever had. Everyone, from relatives from China to Americans born and raised in Ohio thought the meal was brilliant. But Christina was never afraid of any culinary challenge, and would work diligently on researching and perfecting new recipes to serve us. In terms of recipe development, Christina was nothing short of professional and a perfectionist. Two things stood out specifically. First, was that we also asked if Le's could cater boba for us as well. We already liked the Milk Tea that they demo'd at the initial tasting, but we asked for two very specific drinks in addition to the standard Milk tea. We requested an orange fruit tea, and a sesame milk drink. Christina iterated on both recipes, and came back to us with a tasting. My wife and I, as boba connoisseurs, had extremely nitpicky feedback to give, and she took all of it with grace. Every single of of the drinks were improved to exactly what we had imagined, by the time of our wedding, and the boba catering was genuinely perfect. The second thing that stood out is that we asked for a particularly experimental dish as an hors d'oeuvres, notably a youtiao + shrimp paste dish that was inspired by shrimp toast. Christina told us that this would be a challenge, especially as she would have to source the youtiao, and then actually develop the dish. During our second tasting, she came up with two completely different versions for us to sample. We chose one, but also gave some feedback about what we liked or disliked of each . What came out at the wedding was neither of the options, but something incredible and better than anything we had imagined possible. She had taken the dish back to the kitchen, and worked on the dish until perfection. If you get a chance to ask for a tasting, I implore you to ask for that appetizer. Overall, if you are looking for a Chinese or Vietnamese cuisine for your wedding, you honestly can't go wrong with Le's kitchen.

The party was at a nightclub in the Castro, and the delivery was perfectly on time. The customer service 1000%. They even provided custom cards for each dish so guests knew exactly what they were eating, a small but thoughtful touch that people really appreciated. We ordered brisket, pulled pork, chicken, smoked portobello mushrooms, barbecue sauces, mac & cheese, potato salad, and tossed salad. With an open bar, I didn't expect the food to steal the show, but it did. Friends and family were raving all night, , "Where is this food from?" The next day, my phone was blowing up with texts about the brisket, the mac & cheese, the works. (For the record: I'm extremely picky about mac & cheese, and City nailed it.) My cousin from the Midwest said that the portobello mushrooms were his favorite. The portions were so generous we had enough to host a next-day gathering to enjoy the leftovers, though the mac & cheese disappeared the night of the party so order extra! In a city like San Francisco, where great BBQ is rare, I only wish City Smoke House had a brick-and-mortar location I could frequent. This is a family-owned business that delivers in every possible way, and I'm beyond grateful to them for making my milestone celebration unforgettable. I hope they stay booked and busy.

I ended up going with the beef, and it immediately satisfied my craving for a quick and delicious grab-and-go lunch. The beef tasted fresh, and the flavors were bold and robust. I also added the Korean soy garlic fried chicken, and it paired surprisingly well with the kimbap. The fried chicken wasn't quite as crispy as I hoped, but the flavor definitely made up for it.

Lots of nostalgic snacks, seasonings, I even saw fresh Korean rice cake which I'll definitely be trying out next time.
