Starting with the positives, the tasting, the food, the catering staff onsite during my wedding,…read moreand Vicky (who no longer works there) were all great. We used to buffalo gals for our wedding and food was great. Just a few points of miscommunication that caused a bit of unnecessary stress on my wedding day is why the loss of a stars. We were told that the one guest who was celiac and one guest who was vegetarian were going to have a plated meal to prevent risk of cross contamination and would ensure they had their food. We were told not to stress as they would be plated and given to the guests as they were given the guests names and could work with the seating chart. I noticed that the guest who was vegetarian was only eating sides so I had asked and she said she didn't know there was a separate meal. the celiac guest who luckily got to go through the buffet first did not have issues as she did get to go first but could've caused severe outcomes for her if she did have cross contamination. After talking with catering staff onsite they said they were told that the guest has to ask for it which was complete opposite of what was originally communicated, and they were deeply sorry. So just miscommunication with one that actually could've caused permanent harm if she had ingested gluten. We also paid an additional fee for grilling to be onsite, due to fire ban that was unable to occur. We understand that is not within our control but no where in the contract does it say that it is not refundable, so they just held onto that fee even though they didn't provide the service. When asked about the refund I was told the fee was for the tri-tip to be cooked on a specific grill but nowhere does that say that in our contract and was NEVER communicated - because if it was not onsite we were told the way it was cooked was the same - we thought we really were just paying for the experience of it being onsite. So biggest tip for anyone going through them is get everything in writing with clear communication and clarification, because without that they don't care to help.

Planning a wedding started out stressful but with the help of Sondra, and The Picnic Basket team, things began to come together so smoothly. They have been so flexible and understanding of all of the chaos and always make every situation easier to tackle for their clients! They have so much knowledge on the town, venues and OF COURSE, food! Sondra was always so quick to answer emails, offer the best suggestions and help ease our minds with the wedding. They offer a wide range of food options and you can't go wrong with any of them! We were blown away at our tasting! This isn't your typical steak and chicken kind of caterer, they have EVERYTHING! I highly recommend The Picnic Basket and Buffalo Gals for any wedding, party or cookout you might be having! A huge thank you to Sondra and The Picnic Basket for everything they have done for us! You went above and beyond!

I can see that!. Totally unnecessary. If I was the owner, definitely wouldn't allow staff to act like that, I've considered their services for events, not after today.

El Chapin's burger tastes just like a Five Guys burger with an even better patty…read more The burger itself is a bit of a mixed bag. I found the patty to be juicy and the burger sauce adds a nice creamy tang. The burger was a bit on the wet side, some from the grease and some from the toppings. The bun absorbs some of that and makes it a bit soggy. There are two big slices of cheese on the double cheeseburger and it's a bit too much on the cheese to patty ratio. Very similar to a five guys burger in terms of cheese and bun. The fries are a fresh cut that comes with a side of burger sauce. The fries, being fresh cut, aren't super crisp and are greasy. The side of the burger sauce is a great addition that makes these subpar fries good enough to eat. Okay burger and would be interested in trying the tacos.
