Every course, from the appetizers to the main courses, was incredible and beautifully presented. Many of our guests reached out about how it was simply such good food. One of our deciding factors was the fact that Buckboard is actually a restaurant here in San Diego, so their food was not just "wedding food" but actually restaurant quality. We fell in love instantly after our tasting. Knowing they are a local San Diego restaurant gave us so much confidence in food quality, and they absolutely delivered. Their service on the day of our wedding was seamless. It felt like everything was handled effortlessly, which allowed us to enjoy the day stress-free. My husband and I planned our wedding on our own and one of the biggest reliefs for us was that Buckboard took care of so many details - from linens, plates, and bar service to the propane for the heaters. Having one point of contact for everything was a great aspect. We truly didn't worry about their services at all day of. Buckboard's familiarity with our venue was another huge plus. They worked in perfect harmony with the venue staff. And as a same-sex couple, we were deeply touched by how welcomed and respected they made us feel throughout the entire process. We wholeheartedly recommend Buckboard Catering for their incredible food, great service, and outstanding communication. They made our wedding day not just special, but unforgettable. Thank you, Buckboard, for everything, you're truly the best!

When you arrive, you just come around the back to an outdoor dining area with lots of tables, chairs, and covered areas for shade. At night the whole patio area lights up to give you just enough light for a romantic space. The food is made by a real Napoletano Chef from the house made pasta to the wood fire pizzas. We ordered the gnocchi and swapped the red sauce for pesto. Let me tell you it was sooooo good! The gnocchi was melt in your mouth soft and the pesto was perfect. The bolognese pasta was delicious and the pasta was so tender and delicious. We ordered 3 of the wood fire pizzas and the crust was so soft. The Pepe pizza which is a pepperoni pizza was my favorite with its soft, almost melt in your mouth crust with a red sauce that was PERFETTO!! The pizza crust is definitely worth the visit to Marcello's. The service was outstanding!! They were so nice and took very good care of us. They do not serve wine however they will allow you to bring your own. If you are looking for a great Italian place that feels cozy and romantic with amazing food then Marcello's is definitely the place to try.

Well he did not disappoint, from the appetizers to the desserts, each course was a hit. I am still getting compliments about the food served. I guess the best part of my experience with Perfect Chef was how easy they were to work with, nothing was too hard or complicated. Their staff were efficient and polite and did it all with a smile. Did I mention their cost was less then the other catering companies. I guess my experience was like the other reviewers....EXCELLENT. I would use them again and definitely recommend them to family and friends.

From the moment we inquired to the day of the party, we received several emails confirming the location, setup area, menu, and guest count. I had zero concerns about their ability to execute the plan, and I especially appreciated their 48-hour final confirmation. Our guests (95 total) raved about the food. We ran out of beef a little earlier than expected, but our people do love to eat and appreciated that the staff didn't skimp on portion sizes. I think my guests took "all you can eat" seriously--LOL. My only suggestion would be to let Taquizas Jose know if your group loves to eat, as you may want to factor that into the amount of meat they bring. We've been feasting on leftover beans, rice, and tortillas this week--thoroughly enjoying it. Safe to say no one left hungry, and we're still enjoying it days later. 10/10 would (and hope to) book again for any event!

I ordered that with a side of mac and cheese. $20 later I was given a plate with what looked like a delicious sandwich and Mac and cheese. I went to pick up the sandwich and the bottom bun must have had that meat sitting on it for 10 min.. It was completely soggy and had to use a fork to try and eat the meat which had a substantial amount of fat I should have taken it back. The Mac and cheese my kid lives.. He took one bite and didn't eat any of the rest.. I didnt either. . It was Luke warm.. And very little of any flavor. Comon guys.. If you're gonna have $20 sandwich out there.. Make it memorable. Switch out the bun.. For goodness sakes.. It would have made a big difference. You were not busy.. And even if you were.. Do the right thing.

Please don't let my terrible photos stop you from eating this delicious BBQ…read more Yes, the prices are a little steep (similar to the prices charged by ALL food trucks) but you get a TON of absolutely delicious BBQ. We tried the pulled pork sandwich and the smoked beef sandwich. They were both terrific and you get an absolutely MOUND of meat with both dishes. The BBQ sauce used was a tad sweet but not too sweet. Both proteins were incredibly tender and juicy. We also tried the mac and cheese and beans and, as with the meats, you get a ton of whatever side you order (you get one side per plate). The mac was a little dry but still delicious. The beans were smoky and OUT OF THIS WORLD TERRIFIC. I'm not kidding. These are life-changing beans, if there can be such a thing. Frequently parked outside the Lost Abbey in San Elijo, this is a truck you want to check out. The food was served very quickly after ordering so no long wait like with most food trucks.

(one of our guests who is planning a wedding for her son soon actually asked for ALL of our contacts!!! Lol! ) Many of our guests said it was the best wedding they've ever attended, and my wife called it the best day of her life.

WOW!!!! Continental catering was so amazing…read more We used Continental Catering for the welcome dinner for our wedding weekend, and asked them for an Indian "street food". They were SO kind and accommodating, and brought us in for TWO full tastings (with guests!) to perfect the menu. The chefs were so sweet, and also really humble with the less familiar cuisine, actually asking my grandma for her thoughts and taking such detailed notes on what we wanted. Also, we got the most amazing s'mores dessert, which was a huge hit with our guests. We also subcontracted several other things through Continental, like tables, chairs, lighting, and AV. This was honestly extremely convenient, and was so nice to not have to juggle so many vendors. Their communication was incredible, the food was great, and just an 11/10 team. So glad we chose Continental for our event!

Airgas USA hired this caterer to serve tacos during our award ceremony honoring one of our drivers…read morefor winning driver of the year. I paid $917 for 60 people with serving hours from 11:00 AM to 1:00 PM. We only had 35 people attend the lunch. As the manager I was one of the last people to go out to the parking lot where the caterer setup for my lunch at 12:40. To my surprise the caterers had already packed all the food away and were preparing to leave... When my associate called their office to discuss why they took all the food we paid for and why they left early, she was told, "we put 60 paper plates out and all 60 were used." As a customer and a customer service manager this poor service is unacceptable. The conversation with the caterers office after was even worse. This vendor is no longer allowed to do business with our Airgas. I strongly recomend you find a different caterer.
