    I had contracted Handheld Catering for a corporate event. Lisa and Anna were super responsive and helpful with getting my event planned and organized. They were responsive via phone, email, and even came in-person to do a site-walk through. I liked how they handled everything from food, drink, organizing the table rentals, and everything around the event. They really made everything very seamless. The staff at the event were very professional and prompt too. The food and desserts were very tasty and they were above expectations. Overall, I would highly recommend Handheld Catering for corporate events. Thanks!

    Dessert catering by Handheled Catering.  Birthday cake by Cake Expressions.

    Handheld Catering catered my friend's 50th birthday that I was hosting. Amazing end to end - from the first consultation (prompt responses, Zoom call). Worked with our preferences. Proposed menu based on budget. The food tasting experience was also fun and informative. The event went smoothly from start to finish (setting up and cleaning up!!). Shoutout to An Bui who was my contact! Even came with the staff to help setup and all that. Benny and Gama was the staff who helped us at the party!! The food was amazing! The sliders were my favorites. And.... The hot apple cider was the other winner!! Thank you Handheld team!!

    Very organized kitchen.

    We used them for our daughter's wedding reception and dinner. They were hired through our wedding planner, and they had asked ahead of time if it's ok to use our kitchen. They were so organized and professional. The food was "Top Chef" level, and every dish was presented so beautifully with flowers and extra touches. They also left a printed dinner menu on each place setting, which was a nice surprise. After service was over, they stacked up all the rentals (chairs, etc.) for us. The kitchen was left just as clean as when they arrived. They also left all the remaining food in aluminum trays for us. The food and service was top notch, and I wouldn't hesitate to hire them again.

    "The Amazing Krista"

    Krista... (or, as I have her in my cell phone as "The Amazing Krista" - no joke), is exactly that. Amazing. She made the whole process of food, scheduling, vendors, etc. so very easy. The catering/food is the ONE area I just simply did not worry about, because I KNEW Krista had it handled, and I was not wrong. To make her job harder, I requested the food be gluten-free (daughter and now my allergies). The food was absolutely DELICIOUS!! With all the emails back and forth, the last minute changes to the number of people attending, the never ending seating arrangement changes... she rolled with all of it like the pro she is. You know how you know everyone is enjoying their meal? The tables are buzzing with laughter and talk. We had to have the D.J. up the volume, because everyone was enjoying their meal so much, we couldn't hear the music we selected. lol Everyone was asking about the food. The look of shock on their faces when I told them that everything was Gluten-Free, was priceless. There really wasn't much food leftover at all, darn it. I was hoping we could take a few meals home. Risotto - Gone. Meatballs - Gone. Chicken Nuggets - Gone. Salad - Gone. There were only 3 Chicken breasts filled with goat cheese left, some steak, and some roasted potatoes left. Still, I'm so glad everyone had a great time at our wedding. We are even talking about our next party together! And I will hire NO ONE else but HHC and The Amazing Krista. I'd tell you to hire them too, but I don't want Krista to be too busy for when I need her!! ;) I have absolutely no reservations about recommending this place. They are so worth it. Sorry for the long review, but I really could go on and on about how wonderful Krista is.

    yummy sandwich, chips, pickle and cookie

    I used 3D for my company training event this week. And with the whole pandemic , we were required to have some type of individual boxed lunch. I had ordered some boxed sandwich meals as well as a hot boxed lunch. All was great, everyone enjoyed the food. Delivery was fantastic! Great service! Will definitely used them again for future events!! I think next time I want to try morning catering if available..i'll have to check it out :)

    See all

They said they were able to deliver on a certain amount of orders. I saw here and was quick to response. I had a family dinner of 20 ppl and gave Co Hoang a try. We did everything through text. The day of which is Saturday, 12/20/25, I was to pick up the food at 5pm. You have to text the 15 minutes before meeting them up at a parking lot. Texted and met up with them, food was still piping hot. The whole process was very smooth. What I ordered: * Small Soúp Măng Cua/Bong Bóng Cá Asparagus Crab Meat soup - $120 * Small Gỏi Sứa Tôm Thịt Ngó Sen- $50 * Small Mì Xào / Chow Mein - $50 * Chả Giò / Egg Rolls- $1.50 each * Small Bò Mông Cổ / Mongolian Beef- $60 for 3 lbs of meat * Small Cơm Chiên Cá Măn / Salted Fish Fried Rice - $55 REVIEW FOOD- Overall the food was delicious and not overly salty, so it's great for the older people's taste. Family approved and said it was good. *Soup had so much crabs, asparagus that they definitely didn't gypped you- was good *chow mein had shrimp, scallops and vegetables was good *Mongolian beef- soft and flavorful *salted fish fried rice- good but wish it be a little more flavor *VN salad- this was good! Love that it had celery, cucumbers, strips of mangoes. *egg rolls- meat fillings was good and still crunchy by layer in evening I would definitely order through them for my son's wedding next year or any other party events that I would have. So glad I found them! Service and communication is superb.

    Food, Service = 5 Another 5 star catering service delivery…read more What started as a repeat extremely satisfied customer order journeyed into uncertainty closed out with validation why Athena Grill Catering will always be one of my go to catering companies, especially for Greek, Mediterranean food. Went to their website to order catered buffet lunch for a board retreat happening the next day in Los Altos. As before site easy to navigate with a variety of options to tailor. The first clue that there might be issues was I wasn't able to see or select my ideal delivery time for later in the day. I thought they were already booked for the time. Then when I confirmed & paid for my order, the interface provided a message at bottom of my receipt that catering orders must be made 48 hours in advance. I did it the night before our retreat. (Made note to self to order 48 hours in advance in future) I was disappointed that the website did not clearly note must be made 48 hours in advance or message before I paid that I was ordering less than 48 hours. After making a decent size order for 9, I went in mode hoping to salvage this order. I sent email to restaurant and left a voicemail that night with intention to call in morning to ensure they can fulfill order or provide a refund if they cannot. I called in morning to leave another message in hopes they check messages before their Saturday opening time of 11am which would not allow enough time to cook & deliver. So while setting up for our retreat and searching for a plan B for lunch the hour before retreat starts at 9:30am, I discovered several missed calls. To my delight it was Lorena confirming that they can complete the order, to call back & that would need to pay $20 to deliverer (lunch delivery is complimentary during weekdays near to their restaurant). She left voicemail and text. When I called back, I thank her and Athena grill for coming through. Fast forward, food delivered in mobile hot boxes as expected on time by a couple, quietly arranged in the back of room, generous serving for 9, and very hot for traveling from Santa Clara to Los Altos. I confirmed with Lorena via text and expressed my gratitude who again was responsive. The food was enjoyed by all. We had salad (crisp w/dressing on side), grilled veggies (chunky cut that were firm not mushy), spanakopita (crisp phylo w/good size filling), vegetarian moussaka (would not miss the meat), rice (loose and more than enough for 9 of us), grilled skewered chicken (always moist), grilled salmon (first time and was good portion), and baklava (tasted home made). One of my colleagues asked if food was Halal, which I think they confirmed. Unsure if correct, so suggest contact restaurant directly. Brought leftovers for Hubby & Dad to enjoy. Made plans to eat at their restaurant so can enjoy other yummy dishes like their lamb. Thank you Lorena & Athena Grill Catering.

    Absolutley perfect wedding food, amazing catering experience from Michi! They made us welcome since…read morewe first did our tasting, having a cute sign drawn for us. As soon as we ate the food, we knew exactly that we had to hire them! The food was amazing, they made us feel like we were eating at home with them. Yes, they were expensive, but they do ALOT and provide alot and during+after the wedding, we had so many people telling us it was the absolute best food they have ever eaten at a wedding. - They helped coordinate linens and rentals and helped us when we wanted to do a second meeting to confirm our selections. - They gracefully answered questions throughout when finalizing our menu, and the 2nd tasting was just as delicious as the first. Their service and warmth did not diminish one bit after we signed. - During the wedding day, mr Michi himself handed us a handroll right after the ceremony, and that honestly was one of the moments I remember vividly. - The late night snacks were much appreciated by people, and after dancing, people appreciated the extra fuel. - They even helped clean up afterwards! Even for things that werent part of dinner. Honeslty made our wedding the event of a lifetime and it wouldn't have been the same without the amazing Michi family catering us.

Since my husband and I…read morecook a lot and truly value good food, catering was our top priority and Michi's did not disappoint! We had two tastings, one upon signing the contract and a final one closer to the date where we were able to bring along family and a close friend. They served us full plates of every dish so we even left with plenty of leftovers, which was such a fun bonus for us! Throughout the planning process, they were very easy to communicate with and were highly responsive via email. It was super convenient having them coordinate the table design at their warehouse, including the linens, plateware, and glassware. While the design meeting isn't a "boutique" curated experience, their warehouse has plenty of options to choose from if you already have a general color palette and vibe in mind. On the wedding day, the staff was extremely attentive and brought us hand rolls before cocktail hour even started to ensure we actually got to eat. The live hand roll station was a massive hit with our guests and absolutely delicious. I also appreciated how open they were to our custom cocktails; I provided my own recipe and li hing powder for a pineapple li hing margarita, which they executed perfectly. Cost-wise, this is not a budget vendor and is on the more expensive side. However, the full-service, high-touch planning and day-of experience, from the tastings to the seamless coordination of all design elements, completely justified the price. You truly get what you pay for, and we have no regrets. If food is a top priority for your wedding, we highly recommend Michi's. Their expertise made our day so special, and we couldn't be happier with how everything turned out!
