About

Owned and operated by Tracy Labastida, Field to Table gets its name from Tracy’s life journey from a farmer turned chef. Though the company was started in August of 2013, our roots are deep in both agriculture as well as the kitchen. Our close ties with local farmers are vital to sourcing the fresh produce that we are so fortunate to have access to on the Central Coast.

Tracy started working in produce fields in the Santa Ynez Valley at a young age, and later his interests shifted from growing the produce, to cooking it. It's been his vision ever since to create a company that sources local ingredients to craft amazing, mouth watering menus and that provides excellent service on the days that matter most to people. These events range from intimate dinners, to weddings, to winery events and non-profit events.

Field to Table has grown to be a true labor of love; a true reflection of Tracy’s vision. Our crew is more like family, and our family loves being there to bring our clients' families together. We take pride in offering full service catering throughout the planning process and all the way through the day of the event. Because everyone’s vision and palate are truly unique, our menus are customized for every client. From in home and venue tastings, walk-throughs, décor set up, and the smallest of details, Field to Table Catering & Events will be your concierge, directing you from beginning to end, from planning to clean-up.

Best Meal Ever!!!!

One of our non-negotiables when planning our wedding was amazing food that featured our favorites. What we didn’t know was that working with Field to Table meant we’d end up with the absolute best meal we could have ever asked for. From cocktail hour to dinner itself, Field to Table helped craft our ideal wedding day menu with the freshest, most delicious ingredients. Their team was a joy to work with from the planning stage through to the execution.

Their entire team put so much care into our wedding and truly prioritized us every step of the way. Our tasting before the wedding just made us even more excited for our big day knowing that we would get to eat that meal again and that all of our guests would enjoy a great day of food! Everyone we talked to during and after the wedding mentioned how much they loved the food, which is exactly what we knew would happen from the moment we chose Field to Table.

Each appetizer and every bite of the dinner was exactly what we wanted when we were planning our wedding and we are so thankful that we worked with Field to Table to put together our ideal meal for our special day.

If you are planning a special event and want to put together your perfect meal, we highly recommend choosing Field to Table for a food experience that you will always remember as one of your favorite meals you’ve ever had.

Out of this world

Where to begin.... Field to Table is the most delicious event and wedding catering you've ever tried. They curated a custom menu for us based on our food taste, and their chefs can literally whip up anything... and it's always delicious. We knew once we had our tasting that we had hit a home run. And of course, our guests are still talking about the fantastic food at our wedding to this day saying that it's the best wedding food they've ever had. Highly recommend!!!

Without a doubt the best wedding food I've ever had

We reached out to them initially based on their reviews, but were sold without even having done a taste test based on the proposed menu they sent us based on the food questionnaire we did for them. They literally hit it out of the park and created dishes with our favorite ingredients and based off our favorite restaurants that we had never seen at a wedding before. Mini lobster rolls, shrimp taquitos, buffalo cauliflower, and fried devilled eggs, and those were just the apps! When we did our taste test I was amazed, it was like eating in a 5 star restaurant. I literally couldn't believe that the food would taste that good at the actual wedding. It did, and the portions were enormous. Guests were raving about the food and how they actually full after the food unlikely at many other weddings. They aren't cheap but the food result is 100 percent worth it.

Fantastic Food!

My husband and I wanted to do a wedding weekend experience for our wedding which included a rehearsal dinner, cocktail hour and reception for the wedding, and a farewell brunch the morning after. We were told by our wedding planner that Field to Table was the best of the best, and they definitely delivered! They curated menus for all three events for us; sticking to the themes and requests that we had (our rehearsal was on Cinco de Mayo and therefore we had a taco bar setup), and had no problem making changes to certain items that we didn't feel were fully "us". We got to have a private tasting to try out our proposed menu and we were blown away by the food. The private tasting was an intimate experience where we felt special by the cutest touches they added like a customized menu and writing of our names on a welcome chalkboard. All of the food was seriously so amazing - like 5 star worthy amazing. The whole team at Field to Table was easy to work with and shared in our excitement for the entire weekend. We often bragged to our friends and family about our wedding food, and to "just wait until they tried it!" We are still dreaming about many of the dishes they curated for our big day and we wish they had a restaurant so we could keep enjoying their food.

They truly saved the day!

The FtT team truly saved the day - we had a mix-up and were left without a caterer and they stepped in, spun up the perfect Southeast Asian-inspired menu for us and did a fantastic job. Many of our guests told us they have low expectations for wedding food and that this was easily the best food they'd had at a wedding. They hit it out of the park.

Highly Recommend!

Field to Table catered our wedding on 11/19 and we couldn't be happier with that decision. We received so many compliments from our guests on the food, it blew them away just as it did to us when we had our tasting back in May! The team was incredible to work with from the very beginning, and they made the evening flow so easily for us! Special shoutout to the staff, they were so efficient and made sure there wasn't too much time in between courses. Highly recommend!!

Best Caterer EVER

Field to Table is hands down the best caterer I've ever encountered. Their food was phenomenal and I had multiple people tell me it was the best food they'd had at a wedding. Their team was incredibly communicative and made our day everything we wanted. Their menu's are fully custom and they make sure you get exactly what you want. 10/10 would recommend.

We love Field to Table!!

We really enjoyed working with the entire Field to Table team and their food and presentation is top-notch! We worked with Alex to plan all the details and he was so helpful along the way. He worked closely with us to answer all our questions and give advice, and he and the chef helped us come up with a menu that was exactly what we wanted. We wanted to have burgers/fries/salad and they helped create a menu that was elevated and beautifully presented! All of the food was really delicious and all of our guests loved it! And so many people were talking about the delicious mac n’ cheese! The burgers looked beautiful and were very tasty, the salad was creative and so good, and fries and dipping sauces were delish! And our appetizers were so yummy and fun! We had chicken and waffles with a thyme syrup, crab cakes, a burrata tomato toast and a brie/jam puff pastry. The team is so great because they are open to exploring ideas and menus that are creative and true to the couple.

On the day of the wedding, everything ran very smoothly and the staff onsite were so great, friendly and professional, and we are so happy with how it all turned out. The team was very helpful and accommodating from the planning process all the way through the wedding day, and we are so happy we worked with Field to Table. Thank you to Alex, the chefs and the whole onsite team for making our dream wedding meal and vibe a reality!
