Vik and his staff were very professional. I got a quote the same day after contacting them, along with a ton of useful information, and it was very easy to work things out over email. We had several rounds of adjustments and they were very amicable. The folks who came out to staff our event were super friendly and efficient. I would love to work with Vik staffing again in the future. read more

Vik Staffing has been my go-to team for plated and buffet dinners. As a manager at a busy music venue, I can confidently say they are consistently responsive, punctual, and reliable. Every server they send is helpful, attentive, and able to both follow direction and take initiative when needed. Vik himself is incredibly responsive and always willing to accommodate my last-minute requests, which is invaluable in this industry. I highly recommend Vik Staffing if you're looking for a team of professional, dependable, and genuinely awesome servers. read more

Experienced, Super Professional, and Low Stress. Vik provided us 4 people to join two from our caterer to manage outdoor lunch for 96. They helped with all aspects of event with initiative, professionalism and care. The guests love them. Vik was straightforward, responsive and fair. The highest recommendation for Vik and team. read more

Absolutely fabulous party last night. Glenn and Susanna really added a fun element to the evening. Glenn is a fabulous bartender, really fun guy, and everyone enjoyed him very much. He was able to make every possible drink and seemed to have fun doing it. Susanna, so professional and calm and fun to work with, she had great ideas in presenting the food and left everything spotless. Cannot tell you how happy we are to have found you. Please pass on to them our appreciation for all they did. read more

I am updating my review to 1 star due to the lies regarding communication, staffing, hours, and event timing in the response below. It's a shame. I would not use this service again. This was a cocktail party with the same menu and people as we had at the last party. The only difference was we had a nice bar set up instead of a folding table and soccer tent and more places for folks to sit. It's a lot of excuses for bad service and ruined food. read more

Vik Staffing was recommended to me by my catering company, and I could not be more happy trusting their recommendation. I hired Vik Staffing for my 150-160 person wedding and I wish there were enough words to describe how amazing his staff was. I knew they were going to be an amazing staff just by the way that Vik handles business. He was responsive, helpful and asked all the questions I did not even think about! Everything on the wedding day went smoothly and perfect, and it was due to the great work they did. They were constantly checking on my husband and I and asked if we needed anything.My husband even pointed out how they would bring him sparkling water whenever he was out (his drink of choice). They were friendly and extremely helpful. I was working with a tight timeline and they made sure to stay on top of it. My guests were extremely happy and were taking care of. It was a great feeling to not have myself, my husband nor our family members have to lift a single finger during our event. My number one goal for our wedding was to enjoy it, be present and feel 0 stress. I got exactly what I wanted and his staff to thank for that. I highly recommend hiring them for your staffing needs! read more

Vik's team was great! They arrived early, and were not only friendly, professional, and curtious, but they took the initiative to figure out what needed to get done and hit all the markers. We had food and rentals delivered to our venue, and the staff figured out exactly what needed to get done with minimal direction. Throughout the evening, they made sure everything was moving smoothly, and made it a seemless process for us. Vik was great during preparation, and made sure that we had everything set, and the right staff for the job. 10/10 would use this team again. read more

I took off another star because unbeknownst to me until after the party was over, one of the bartenders placed a tip jar at the bartending table and our family was paying tips with their own cash. We keep hearing from family and friends about the tip jar they contributed to us throughout our event. NOT cool. We feel so embarrassed that our guests felt the need to pull out their wallets. Vik himself is very nice. Very responsive, reliable, and so easy to work with, but how could he allow this to happen? So, the bartenders walked away with the 20% we tipped them, along with money from our guests. read more

We couldn't have been happier with Vik's staffing agency! They demonstrated exceptional professionalism and flawlessly executed our large outdoor wedding for 150 guests. Vik was wonderful to work with--his experience, organization, and professionalism shone through every conversation we had prior to the event. From setting up our tables and place settings, quickly moving 150 chairs post ceremony, assembling the appetizer and dessert table, to clearing plates and cleaning up, everything was great. We highly recommend this agency for any event, big or small. read more

I've utilized Vik Staffing for a dozen personal and work events in the Bay Area. The helpers are professional and work hard the entire time window. Events have included a holiday party for food prep/service/cleanup and professional business meetings for event check-in and other day-of logistics. I strongly recommend them for your personal and work event staffing needs. read more

I was hosting an office holiday party and needed staff to help me bus and clean up as I used to do this all myself when were a bit smaller last year. The staff was awesome and was very proactive in reaching out to me during the event if they were unsure if things needed to be moved around or cleaned up. Recommend if you're in the Bay Area and need some staffing help! read more

Susana and Eric were awesome! They helped our event go very smoothly. They always knew what to do before I did and made it so easy and stress free for me. Vik was super with communication and quick responses. We will definitely come back to them for future events. read more

We had a strange but ultimately positive experience with Vik Staffing. We booked the event a couple of weeks in advance and Vikram reached out on Tuesday before our Saturday event to get the cocktail menu from us. He shared these with the bartender then. Then, on Saturday, when the bartender showed up, we had a very similar experience to a couple of other reviewers here - where our bartender shared that she did not know how to make drinks and was usually just serving them. She struggled to prepare the recipes we had printed out and didn't know how to use our mixing tins. She also smelled heavily of cigarette smoke. When we queried her about her lack of experience, she said she had been asked at last minute to cover the event and had driven up from San Jose. We phoned Vikram right away and he was audibly frustrated (rude even, to the server and my wife) but was able to come take over our bar for the evening. From then on, things were much better. Vikram himself is a solid bartender and was respectful, fun and made excellent drinks. Before booking, I had directly asked about the two negative reviews on the listing and he had mentioned these were written by an employee who was fired and her friend. I had given him the benefit of the doubt but it was unfortunate that we had exactly the same experience ourselves. I know it's hard to find qualified staff in this economy, especially around the holidays but the whole experience left us a little uneasy. Thankfully the event turned out well but I think there is room for improvement here on the backend. read more

The Vik's team is amazing!

They provided over 30 people to work in the kitchen, bartend, and support th Both times, they hit it out of the park! They are kind, courteous, professional, and fun! We'll definitely be using them in the future and recommend them to anyone reading this for their event! read more

I want to preface this by saying that I am a wedding planner and am posting this review from the perspective of a vendor. We've worked with our fair share of staffing companies in the past and usually encounter some sort of issues - their team was AMAZING. Yvette was a great captain - very communicative and willing to delegate her team however we needed. Everyone else worked so hard to make sure things were done - setting and filling water goblets, problem-solving when we realized one of the packs of napkins had been left at the bride's parents' house, helping us move chairs after the ceremony, passing appetizers, setting up desserts... they truly did so much to help us and we made sure it didn't go unnoticed or unappreciated. read more

Vik's team are total professionals. I am in the restaurant and hospitality field, and I had Vik's staffing support an upscale summer BBQ party for 75 at my private home. The team took instructions well and didn't have to be asked twice to do any tasks. The party was a hit, and Vik's team made the event carefree for me and my guests from set up to break down so that I could enjoy myself and have quality time with my guests. read more

I contacted Vik a week before my 40-person cocktail party and he was able to find two fantastic servers within the day. Brooklyn and Sarah were professional and went above and beyond to make sure everything went smoothly. They handled additional unexpected tasks like cutting fruit that we didn't get a chance to prep ahead of time. They were extremely efficient, helpful and super nice to our guests. read more

Working with Vik and his staff are a dream come true. I have worked in the event industry as an event planner for over 20 years and Vik and his staff are by far the best in the industry. From the second I contacted Vik to assist with the staffing for our clients event I knew I found a diamond... a very rare diamond. He responded right away with questions and suggestions that were extremely helpful. His proposal was extremely detailed and he executed everything with precision and impeccable taste. Vik is generous, kind, thoughtful and extremely honest. His staff are also extremely dedicated and loyal to Vik. This showed me how stellar Vik was not only as a professional vendor to his colleagues but also to his staff. This industry has a huge turnover with staff but Vik has had many of the same staff working along side him for years. This is a true reflection of Vik's character. Vik's communication and presentation is also amazing and no stone is left unturned. He truly looks out for his clients to make sure all of their needs are met to make their day truly remarkable.

After Covid, our work force decreased dramatically. Come 2022 We started to get really busy again with bookings but with much less staff, this means we could only do so many events. We were forced to turn some events away until we could get our work force back up. Thankfully we found Viks Staffing. Vik Has helped me and several of our clients get the staff they need for their events to run successfully. At first I was hesitant as I have worked with other agencies before and have not always had great luck with the people who were provided. My experience with Vik was way different! He genuinely cares!!! We have used him for around 30 events and I do not have any negative feedback. Everyone has been great! They are respectful, friendly, always have a great attitude and ready to work. My events have ranged from needing 3 people up to 20 people, no job is too big for Vik. He has accommodated me in every single way to make sure every event I hire him for goes seamlessly. Using him has been a game changer for us. He will make sure you have great people every single time! read more

Five Star Staff & Service!! Every year my family hosts a Passover Seder for friends & family. We have anywhere from 30-48 people. There are a lot of moving pieces to this event and in the past I have tried to manage most of it. This year we hired 3 amazing professionals from Vik Staffing. They were on time, professional and friendly. I can honestly tell you, having them here allowed me to relax and enjoy the evening!! Definitely using them again read more

I hired Vik Staffing for a fancy plated dinner party in Morgan Hill, CA about a week ago and they did not disappoint! To understand the level of support I got from Vik and his staff, I'd have to start from the beginning. I had to hire Vik Staffing last minute because the original vendor I hired (through an app) fell through at the last minute. I never heard back from them, so I had to find someone else who could staff my event last minute. Vik responded to my online inquiry RIGHT AWAY and we were able to finalize plans for the event that same day! I originally intended to hire 4-5 servers for a plated dinner for 100 guests but right away Vik told me I would need 7-8. My wheelhouse is in event planning and decor not food service, so I trusted Vik. A few days before the event, as clients do, they changed the headcount to 130 guests. Mind you this is a plated dinner with several courses. I reached out to Vik immediately panicking, and he said we would need more servers. I told him, I wouldn't be able to convince my client to add more servers. He reassured me that they would do the best they could with what we had and that we could just pay for overtime if need be. Like most events, I was thrown another curve ball! The rental company now required plates and utensils to be washed (original instructions were to just scrape the food off). This would require either more staff or longer hours. Vik took everything in stride and accommodated EVERYTHING that I requested. Vik assured me that his staff would pitch in anywhere help was required. Why? Because his first priority is to make sure that the client is HAPPY and SATISFIED! Now about the waitstaff...they arrived EARLY, they were very professional and worked their butts off...in the blazing sun, with a smile on their face. I was running around a lot so I put them in the care of our Chef and they were in sync! Feedback from the chef was that they were amazing to work with. The staff took direction very well and were very attentive to the guests, all with a pleasant demeanor. After the event was over, as predicted by Vik, we were nowhere close to done with cleanup. I gave Vik a heads up, and 3 of his waitstaff stayed behind to help finish up. Mind you, even though only 3 stayed on to help, I had a lot more volunteers that were willing to stay (past 10pm) to help out. I would LOVE to list all the staff that helped out but I don't remember names very well. I do remember the 3 that stayed super late to help clean up - Tyler, Yvette, and Kylie. Thank you! You were the bomb.com!!! I appreciate ALL the staff that came through Key takeaways from this (TLDR) review in case you're still on the fence... - Vik Staffing is a definite must-hire! - Vik knows his stuff so listen to his recommendations - Vik delivers as promised (he had backups for staff in case of no-shows) - Vik Staffing is motivated by good service before money, and in the service industry, that's rare and hard to find. Would I use Vik Staffing again - hell yeah! As an event planner when you find good people, you keep them close. Vik is about to be my best friend...he just doesn't know it yet :P read more

Vik Staffing provided us with 2 bartenders (Gabriel & Art) for my daughter's graduation party. From the outset, communication was excellent and they did a great job with providing drink suggestions and letting us know how to prepare and what to expect. On the day of the event, Gabriel and Art both showed up on time and went straight to work. They made sure that our guests had a great time and went above and beyond with their service and professionalism. I highly recommend Vik Staffing and will definitely use them in the future for my gatherings! read more

Needed help with an event, so I gave Vik's a try.. I was BLOWN away! As soon as the crew stepped into the place they were automatically engaged and ready to help. They were extremely organized, friendly, and professional as a team, and our guests were constantly served food and drink by the nice waiters. They would also make sure to take glasses and plates as soon as people were done with them -- there's nothing worse than being at a party surrounded by dirty dishes, and it kept everything looking great. Finally, they did an awesome job cleaning up the house. All in all, I've honestly never seen my parents so relaxed at their own party -- very refreshing :) We'll definitely be using them again! Thank you read more

We hired Vik staffing for my wedding reception. We had three servers total. Gabriel was one of the servers that stood out the most and went above and beyond. Vik is lucky to have him in his team since Gabriel is a great asset. I do advise that Vik needs to email folks contracts and invoices with how much he is charging per server in an hourly rate. Day of the event we had a little misunderstanding, due to not not having my notes in front of me and lack of contract from our last conversation and was going to be overcharge $200. I did add additional hours two hours however a contract is much needed. I do thank Vik for accommodating me last minute to have his staff work my event for two more hours. read more

Everything was amazing!!! The waitstaff we hired were very professional & friendly. I definitely would hire them again for another event! Thank you Vik staffing for an amazing night! read more
