Sundried Tomato was our wedding caterer at Casa Romantica. Patti assisted us with our tasting and creating our menu. We loved the food! The catering staff were kind to all our guests and made sure to even bring the hors d'oeuvres to guests during family photos. The bar service was also top notch. My husband and I were greeted by the catering staff with a toast of Champaign. The bar always had a supply of water available to guests. Our wedding food was delicious and we had no idea one of the rented ovens was not working. Somehow Sundried Tomato Catering still made everything happen flawlessly. We also decided to add a Champaign toast to dinner and they continued to serve Champaign to guests throughout the entire dinner. We highly recommend Sundried Tomato Catering and look forward to eating at their restaurant soon!

I held my 9/21/24 wedding reception here at CGC. Kim was an absolute joy to work with- she was so friendly, professional, and had everything very organized (something that I lack in!) She helped me get everything decided in a timely manner, allowed us to customize as much as we could, and was an incredibly affordable option for our 75 person wedding. I can't gush further how delicious dinner was. I have sensory issues and anxiety with food, so saying that I was EXCITED to eat at my wedding is beyond a huge win. The taste testing was incredible and the day of, all of our guests went crazy for our menu. By far the most memorable part of the day was dinner- we were all impressed by how delicious everything was and we devoured the mashed potatoes! Kim knew how much I loved them and was able to save me some to go to eat during our honeymoon which was so sweet of her (and delicious!) The venue itself is so unique, gorgeous, and I can honestly say we had the time of our lives that night. Everything was clean, organized, and she made the whole thing easier to plan and painless! Kim, genuinely from the bottom of my heart, it was the wedding of my dreams and it couldn't have happened without you. I didn't think it was going to be possible for me, but you made dreams come true. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

We were absolutely blown away by the food at our wedding! From the hors d'oeuvres to the main course, every dish was delicious, beautifully presented, and prepared with so much care. Our guests are still talking about how amazing everything tasted and how impressed they were with the quality, flavor, and presentation. Denise was professional, attentive, and truly helped make our special day unforgettable. Every detail was executed perfectly, and the food exceeded all of our expectations. Not only was the menu outstanding, but the service was seamless and contributed to the wonderful experience for all of our guests. If you're looking for a chef who delivers exceptional cuisine and outstanding service, I highly recommend Denise! Thank you for helping make our wedding day so memorable. We couldn't have been happier! -Amber & James

What can I say about Stephen and Melrose Catering? When planning, even a small intimate backyard wedding, takes immense time and effort. Finding the right vendors is the key to making this process easier. Stephen and Melrose Catering was the right catering service for us. We chose Melrose Catering because their diverse entree selection met our dietary needs, including vegan and children. Stephen was "hands on", answering my many emails and text messages immediately. His flexibility was key to addressing and implementing my many changes over the course of the planning time. With 25 years experience, Stephen was able to help an overwhelmed bride navigate the many challenges of wedding planning and to get to the big day. We received many positive compliments of the delicious entrees and appetizers. Their service was first rate. We highly recommend Stephen and Melrose Catering as the best caterer for your event.

Steve went above and beyond to make our event a success. His food is absolutely delicious - never seen so many guests comment on how good the food was!

Karla and her team did a great job catering my rehearsal dinner aboard the Paradiso Yacht. She treated us to a wonderful tasting session a few months before our event, and the high quality of food we experienced then was duplicated perfectly for our rehearsal dinner.

I'm already a regular at this place, but this review is specifically for my wedding. Because we love their cookies and service so very much, my husband and I decided instead of doing a huge cake, we would have a cookie buffet with a tiny cake at our wedding. Not only was this a better value than buying a cake, it was a huge hit with our guests! We already had our faves: Oatmeal, peanut butter dipped in chocolate, and lemon frosted so we got those for sure. We also opted for: chocolate chip, regular peanut butter, oatmeal chocolate chip, vanilla bean, and a surprise favorite, chocolate meringues. The meringues were the best I have ever tasted, they were light and fluffy, without falling apart in your hands, and had decadent chocolate chips inside. The service is the icing (on the cookie lol). Amy delivered the cookies and set them up beautifully! Our photographer didn't get a pic of them freshly set up, but I included some and they still look amazing. Amy gave me some awesome wedding tips and advice, she just feels like family. Though we ordered more than enough cookies, they were gone so fast! Even our vendors were raving about the fact that they were the best cookies they've ever had. This place, the owners, and the cookies, are all absolutely incredible. You won't be disappointed.

I definitely recommend using this company or your event. I have used them for at least 5 corporate events and I will continue bringing them in because the quality and service is superior. They are easy to work, knowledgeable and professional. The guests LOVE the presentation that they do, always outstanding.

We hired Furiwa for our wedding and will absolutely hire them again for future events. The entire staff was professional, the servers were polite and helpful, and the timing of when each of the dishes came out was appropriately paired to the events of the reception. We asked several guests after the wedding which dish was their favorite and every dish was a huge hit including the appetizers! Vivian worked with us to customize our menu and was responsive throughout the planning process. Furiwa will not disappoint!
