There was not a single issue or hiccup, and that kind of execution is no small feat. The team was incredibly helpful, the food was truly impeccable, and the staff were so kind and attentive throughout the entire event. We received endless compliments from our guests, the catering was genuinely one of the highlights of the night. KB, the catering manager, was on another level! She took such amazing care of us as a couple, constantly checking in, bringing us food, and making sure we had everything we needed at all times. We never once had to look for her, she was always right there, anticipating everything before we even had to ask. She was like a hawk in the best possible way, completely on top of every detail while still being warm and calm. Because of her, we were able to fully relax and enjoy our wedding! A true gem! They went above and beyond, and it showed in every detail. We are so grateful and will be talking about them for a long time!

They were referred to us by our amazing wedding planner Courtney from one sweet day events, she said she had worked with Doug and the team often and highly recommended them. She was not wrong, every guest we spoke to said the food at our wedding was the best wedding food they had ever had. I HIGHLY suggest the mushroom pasta... trust me, just do it. At our food tasting there was literally not one item we didn't love- it was hard to narrow it down to the items we chose. The chicken and beef options were all so delicious also. The kindest servers and staff as well. Not only was the food out of this world but the table rentals/linens etc were beautiful- exactly what we were hoping for. We are so happy we added on the smore roasting tables as well- they were such a hit with not only the kids but all us adults as well for a late night snack (: Thank you DJ catering for making our day so incredible!

I am so grateful we went with Jorge and his team to cater our wedding! Even weeks later our friends…read moreand family are still raving at how delicious and plentiful the food was. We ordered deviled eggs, bacon wrapped dates, jalapeno poppers and caprese skewers for the appetizers. We also did brisket and pulled pork with Spanish rice, mac n cheese, potato salad and coleslaw for dinner. And everything was so yummy! I echo what many others have shared in that Jorge is incredibly professional and responsive. Him and the team really go above and beyond - from ensuring the set up was done nicely, to the color table cloth we preferred, they really want to make sure everything is done thoughtfully. I got married in La Arboleda in the Lompoc area and had interviewed many other wedding caterers. Many of which charged an arm and a leg for every item - literally, serving spoons, chafing dishes, linens, tables, every piece had a markup fee as well for convenience even though they were all likely rented from the same rental company that I could have rented from directly. Jorge gave the option for an inclusive flat rate set-up and service fee which was so much more reasonable and simple. I am so incredibly happy with the food and service we got from SmokeMeOut BBQ and highly recommend them for catering.

We're still getting compliments from our guests about the food and their team's exceptional service even 3 months later. Glenn and Lorraine worked with us through two tastings to craft a menu that was not only delicious but able to be adapted to suit dietary restrictions. Our guests were so impressed at their servers for greeting them by name to confirm dietary restrictions before dinner began. Every random ask and need we had throughout the planning process was no problem -- Lorraine Lim Catering had thought of every nuance and small detail from the full kitchen build to chilling our 6L bottle of champagne to making sure the bride and groom actually ate. (Glenn literally hand delivered a bowl of ice cream to me as if he knew that's exactly what I wanted -- talk about surprise and delight!) We also did a full bar but brought in our own alcohol -- Glenn helped us confirm what to buy, and their bartenders were so organized and had great energy throughout the evening. Total pros! Passed appetizers: * Oysters in the half shell (Kumamotos and Pacifics) with mignonette sauce * Chicken satay with Thai-style peanut sauce * BLT crostini with basil aioli Dinner: * Ojai orange balsamic salad * Beef tenderloin with thyme garlic butter & brandy peppercorn sauce * Salmon with tamari soy & ginger-scallion sauce * Summer vegetable quinoa pilaf * Rosemary roasted potatoes & seasonal vegetables Desserts: * McConnell's of Santa Barbara ice cream bar * Chocolate cake with hazelnut mousse (small wedding cake for cutting) * Chocolate pot de creme * Summer stone fruit tart with mascarpone Late night snacks: * Oven baked tater tots with garlic aioli & ketchup Thank you Glenn, Lorraine, and team for just being such incredible partners and delivering such an incredible experience to us and our guests on our wedding day!

Naomi and the team were so helpful during the contracting and menu selection process, they were very communicative, responsive, and helped with recommendations. The menu tasting was so incredibly fun and fancy! We loved getting to try so many items and getting to tweak any dishes to our liking. Food was an incredibly important part of our wedding day. Both my husband and I are foodies and we have been to several friends weddings were food was just 'meh'. We couldn't have been happier with the food ourselves and loved that our guests were also so pleased with the food (had multiple guests ask about if we had the recipes for certain dishes that were served!!). We went with a bread and dill compote butter, delicious arugula salad, great steak and salmon mains, and a potato and pea/asparagus salad sides (see menu pic for details). You will not regret hiring Seasons for your wedding or event and we are so grateful we did! Outside of the food and drinks being amazing, the staff, service, and bartenders, were the best!
