We had these guys cater for my sons's birthday, they make the best pastor tacos I've ever had…read more They make it fresh on the trompo (vertical spinning skewer) just like a taqueria should. We called a few others, but these are the only guys my wife and I could find that make the pastor fresh on the trompo right there in front of you, and let me say, they are the bomb! Don't let the lack of pictures or reviews fool you, these guys do it right. They also give your choice of fresh drinks which are included, such as hibiscus tea and horchata. They provide fresh salsas and guacamole, as well as a choice of sides, such as rice and beans. Give these guys a try, you won't be disappointed. Happy taco eating!

The little English tea sandwiches were delicate and flavorful, the quiches were perfectly baked, and the salad was crisp and fresh. The chocolate-covered strawberries were a beautiful finishing touch and a big hit with our guests. communication was easy throughout the process. Lena was available and supportive during the stressful time working with a short timeline. The presentation fit the elegant tea party theme perfectly. We received so many compliments from our guests and wouldn't hesitate to use them again for a special occasion.

I've worked with Lena for 2.5 years across multiple events for different clients, and I keep coming…read moreback to her for a reason. What sets Lena apart isn't just her execution, it's her instinct for what a production actually needs, including things you didn't know to ask for. Seven hours into a long event, she'll appear with a plate of food and a knowing smile. It sounds small, but a fed producer runs a tighter show, and she knows that before I do. That same instinct shows up everywhere: when a venue had no prep kitchen, she made it work out of a laundry closet. When a hot day caught us without enough water to drink, she had canned beverages in people's hands before I'd even finished flagging the problem. When the prep room at a venue ended up being the width of a hallway, her team rolled up their sleeves and prepped delicious foods despite the conditions, never complaining. She finds the way, every time. She's someone I trust completely in the planning process leading up to events. She's fast to respond, honest when something needs adjusting, and genuinely collaborative when the goal shifts. Her team shows up prepared, and she stays with a project until it's right. I've recommended Lena to others in my field without hesitation, and every single one of them has come back grateful. If you need someone who can hold every moving piece together and still make it feel effortless, she's the one.

For Z's graduation party at Mom's house in Menlo Park on Saturday, May 24, 2024, we decided to hire…read moretaqueros. Through yelp search, I contacted several vendors one of whom was Tacos El Jefeson. Ricardo Camarena replied to me in less than 24 hours, providing the link to their form and telling me, "TACO CATERING PRICE IS $15 PER-PERSON)( 50 PEOPLE MINIMUM) I'll make sure to include a complementary side. Anything over the minimum is okay." Planning with Ricardo was straightforward and easy. He was very friendly and accommodating. Once we settled on the details, a system generated invoice was sent to me and a minimum $200 deposit to confirm the date was due. The $200 deposit went towards our service. Below is what was served by Tacos El Jefeson: Asada, Pollo and Al Pastor Without Pineapple Tacos for 65 People ($925.00) - Included in the price was a side of Rice & Beans (We requested for both Refried & Whole), a salsa bar with 2 salsas & Condiments such as Grilled onions , Grilled serranos, Radishes, Cilantro, diced limes and Tortilla chips. They also provided Napkins, plates, & plastic utensils. A very nice spread it was and the tacos were delish, served hot and fresh, straight from the grill with big smiles. Cucumber pico de gallo (Monthly Promotion for $0.00) - This was the yummy complimentary side. The cucumbers were fresh with a nice crisp. Watermelon Aqua Fresca ($100.00) - Initially, we were not going to order any agua fresca since my aunt was already making homemade horchata. At last minute, we added a 5-gallon order of Watermelon Agua Fresca. Glad that we did because the beverage was refreshingly delicious. I highly recommend serving this drink! 50 Cinnamon Churros ($150.00) - The churros were a big hit and were quickly gone within minutes. Next time, we will need to order more for sure! We paid for two additional hours at $120.00 each, so $240.00 altogether. My family likes to party all day and all night, so the extra time was very much needed. Chef Ricardo and Antonio were the ones who came to set up, cook, serve, and clean up. They were punctual, organized, and were a delight to work with. At the end of their service period, they did start to pack up fifteen minutes early because it seemed that no one was approaching the grill for more tacos. We probably should have had them wait until the full extra two hours was up because as luck would have it, we had a few tardy attendees show up. We had plenty of leftovers, so we prepared their tacos ourselves after Ricardo and Antonio were gone. In total, we had 6 hours of service; 2 Hours Of Preparation & Cooking from 12pm-2pm and 4 Hours Of Serving Time from 2pm-6pm. Tacos El Jefeson's kitchen is based in Fremont, so we were charged a Travel fee of $40.00. Heads-up - A 15% gratuity is automatically added to your invoice up front, but well worth it - Chef Ricardo & Antonio were extremely polite and friendly. Antonio even assisted mi abuela (my grandma) to get in the car when she was leaving. The Tacos El Jefeson team were awesome. We enjoyed their company so much that we invited them to stay and hang out and party with us (no working, of course). If you prefer not to use cash, you can pay via credit card for a 4.2% credit card transaction fee. For our next party with taquizas, we will mos def hit up Tacos El Jefeson again.

Service is very reliable and thorough. The staff are always professional, friendly, and efficient. Once I contact Erin Traylor to initiate a project, I know I am in good hands and do not have to worry. They have catered events as small as 12 people and as large as 300. Sometimes in very challenging environments like below deck on a WWII aircraft carrier (USS Hornet Museum). Everything always goes well from set up to clean up. Highly recommend Pacific Fine Foods.
