    Beet salad

    Working with John was an absolute dream! We had SLO's Finest cater our wedding and I could not recommend them more. John is approachable, easy going, creative, and goes above and beyond. He is a delight to work with. The food he makes is both beautiful and delicious! The bacon wrapped dates and beet salad are a must! He was the perfect caterer for our wedding and we would hire him again in a heartbeat. Highly recommend!!

    I don't know if I have the words to adequately express my supreme satisfaction with the service of John and his team at SLO's Finest. Not only was it the best catered meal I've ever had (and I have an opportunity to have quite a few through my job), it was professionally staffed and well organized. John was very good about meeting with my wife and me before our wedding to get an idea of what we wanted. He worked with us on a number of occasions to refine the food and services and was great about making changes. His level of customer service can't be beat. I really can't say enough good things about him. His pricing was phenomenal considering that he uses locally sourced products to make such outstanding meals. Everything was great, but I have to say, he made a butternut squash lasagna that was to die for. Our guests couldn't stop raving about the food. John at SLO's Finest is one of the greats. It truly is SLO's finest, if not California's or the nation's. My wife and I will never use anyone else.

    Pulcinella Wood-Fired Pizza & Catering

    (26 reviews)

    I hired Pulcinella for my wedding, approx one year prior to the actual event date and while I…read moreappreciate the initial effort to site check my property for compatibility, the communication and satisfaction ended there. I had tried to get in touch with Kym regarding the pizza menu and certain special requests. After repeated emails and phone calls, plus an extra Yelp inquiry to nudge her, I finally got a response. My planner also reached out several weeks before the wedding with no success. This was a recurring issue. I understand wedding season is busy but my planner and myself were not contacted until 6-7 days prior to my wedding. There were other logistical things to figure out and the communication fell absolutely short. I also requested in multiple emails that I would like to purchase extra cheeseboards/grazing boards to have a more elaborate spread. This was never acknowledged so I had assumed I would be billed later or extra charges on my invoice would cover the request. Nope- they ran out of food incredibly early for my cocktail hour and did not even clear the area. At the actual event, I had 60 people and purchased food for 68 to account for vendors etc. There were 3 small pizza trays on a table and they were being eaten by a single table at a time. Some people did not receive food or waited so long they just gave up and ate meatballs and salad. I acknowledge that the DJ called guests too quickly. Not the catering team's fault. But even when he slowed down and people were fine waiting, it was still an abnormally long wait. There could have been a second table or more pizza trays or something. 3, 10-11" pizzas to be split amongst a table of ten is not reasonable. The slices are thin and people started taking bigger portions of sides cuz there wasn't enough pizza in time. I understand that there was an issue with where the "kitchen" was set up, versus where the food table was located (a 200 ft walk), but there was extra staff to assist. Also- this issue could have been solved much earlier and planned better IF THERE WAS COMMUNICATION. So disappointed. When people actually did get food, they said the pizza was good but I've had good pizza elsewhere and that's where I'll be going for it. The star is for the meatballs which is all I ate as the bride. I was one of the people that gave up on pizza since it took so long. My husband said it was good but he also only got a single piece. Bummer.

    We hosted a rehearsal dinner for 65 people at our vacation rental in Paso Robles and we could not…read morebe more pleased with the service and the food. Kym assisted us with planning, preparation and suggestions. Her service was wonderful. The pizza and salads were fabulous. Her charcuterie boards were works of art!! Thank you Kym and staff!!
