    Supressa Pizza Farmers Market
    Madison H.

    Chef Andrei is the BEST! Amazing cook and incredible personality. We've booked him for our wedding and I cannot wait for that, but this time around I reached out with very little notice to ask Chef Andrei to surprise my fiance with a nice dinner. I'm injured and can't navigate around the kitchen to cook at all, but wanted to celebrate 3-years cancer free. Chef Andrei responded promptly saying he has a booking that day, but if I'm okay with it being afterwards he'd love to! He asked some questions to create a menu, asked if we had a grill and he took care of the rest! We were gone but Chef Andrei brought all his own stuff, made a delicious meal, left our food covered and even cleaned up things I left out for him and cleaned and seasoned our cast iron skillet. The food was INCREDIBLE, delicious, and huge portions! My fiance was stoked and I'm even more stoked to have leftovers. So grateful Chef Andrei made this happen to celebrate this milestone, and very excited to use his business in a few months for an even more important day:)

    Cannoli

    Andrei is awesome!! He made cannoli for our wedding dessert and fresh pizza for the rehearsal dinner. It was absolutely delicious!!! We are so happy with how it turned out.

    Our experience with this company was so egregious I almost can't believe I'm even writing this. We hired Andrei to cater the first night of a bachelorette party. After confirming with him, and following up & confirming again about a week before the dinner, we emailed him the night before the dinner to touch base just before the event. We never heard from him ever again. We tried every route available to us: both email addresses on his website as well as calling, leaving voicemails, and texting the phone number. We actually took the additional step of contacting the woman who had referred him to us. She said she tried contacting him as well but couldn't get a hold of him. He never showed up. The first day of this long-planned weekend was ruined and we had to order pizza as a last minute option, because obviously it would be impossible to hire someone as a replacement chef the same day. Initially, we thought something horrible happened to him. But the very next day, we had a different friend text the same number we texted to inquire about his services, and he almost immediately responded. We have no idea why he ghosted us, decided not to show up the very last minute, or why he couldn't take the basic step of at least shooting one (1) single text to let us know he wasn't going to show up. The very bare minimum would be to at least contact us after the fact to apologize. The fact that it's been a few days now and he STILL hasn't contacted us means he simply doesn't care about showing up to scheduled events for which he's been hired as the sole chef. He left all 16 of us in the lurch, and all 16 of us would be well within our rights to leave him a 1 star review. EDIT: I'm even more confused by the response? I'm uploading pics of our communications. First, "you never hired me" is confusing because why would we offer to pay hundreds of dollars as a deposit to someone we were not hiring? Second, "I never heard back" is bizarre when we emailed him back one day after his last email to us, and then WE never heard back from him. This is, of course, after we offered a deposit to "lock it in" (see pictures for literally direct quotes) and he said a deposit was not necessary to do that. We also gave him a time and an address right after he asked, and he never said he couldn't do the job, or that anything more was needed from us. Quite frankly, I also don't believe the carrier update. I mean.... really? We emailed (I emphasize, EMAILED) on top of texting him and he didn't have wifi or check his emails.... ever? To date, we have not received a direct email or text at least acknowledging our attempts to contact him, informing us of any carrier update, and/or apologizing for a "miscommunication." Plus, our friend texted him the literal next day and he responded right away (see pictures). Ultimately, even if we chalk this up to "miscommunication," the least this man could've done is communicated with us like an adult. Honestly, had he simply responded to us, we would've been bummed to miss out on the experience but probably let it go. Instead, he chose to completely ghost us. That's not only a horrible way to treat clients, but a horrible way to treat other human beings. Whatever, I guess before hiring this dude make sure you sign a contract, and given his capacity for excuses, you should probably get a lawyer to review that contract to make sure it's completely airtight. Otherwise, hey, it's your own fault he doesn't show up.

    Fresh oysters with delicious home made dressing/mignonette
    Robin M.

    This is my second time working with Chef Andrei and he did not disappoint! We (15 people) had a delicious 3 course meal plus fresh oysters. The kitchen at the air bnb was not ideal but this didn't deter Chef. Im sure it wasn't easy cooking in there! I worked with chef beforehand in creating a menu perfect for our group which included scallops, octopus, steak, mushroom risotto and the chocolate crème brûlée of your dreams. If you're looking for an elevated experience while traveling or a treat for a special event, definitely check out Chef Andrei! Thanks Chef!

    While the pizza was sold out, cannolis were not and they were amazing. We found this team at the Avila Beach Farmers market. Great dessert, I look forward to trying the pizza next time.

The tasting we did with Seth at their Templeton location gave us a good sense of what to expect and really drove home that we were working with a local team, and not a big corporate operation. Seth is a great chef and had good suggestions that fit in nicely with our vision of the evening, and the Mediterranean-style meal we were looking for. On the day of the wedding, the Pacific Harvest team was well prepared and did a great job executing. The appetizer boards and passed apps during our cocktail hour were delicious and very attractive, and as we moved into the evening the Pacific Harvest team also assigned one of their servers to make sure we got taken care of while the rest of the guests got their food.  They made sure all of our other vendors got a nice hot meal too, and our photographer said she's never been so well taken care of! As I mentioned earlier, we got fantastic feedback on the food, and we had a nice selection of options for vegetarians and vegans as well. We really wanted to have warm cookies as a dessert option, and the Pacific Harvest team was nice enough to bake and serve the cookie dough we ordered from a local bakery so that our warm cookies dreams came true!  We cannot recommend Pacific Harvest enough. If you're having a Central Coast wedding, book them now!

We didn't want your typical 'wedding food' at our reception and when chatting with Seth about it he was super on board with the idea. He gave us plenty of options to help nail down our menu. We did a Mediterranean styled menu and served it family style and it was FANTASTIC! Our guests immediately after dinner were raving about how delicious the food was and we are still getting people telling us that the food was amazing. Seth, Dawn and their team are so professional and super easy to work with. We had some of our guests have food allergies and they were super accommodating. It is so overwhelming as a bride to book vendors you have not worked with before nor have tasted their food and I am so glad we found Pacific Harvest. I would 1000% recommend them to cater your next event!!
