About

Harvest Kitchen is the best catering choice for your wedding. Why, you ask?

1) YOU'RE OUR #1 : we want you to feel special. Our clients love our attention to customer service, and how quickly we create proposals and respond to emails. We intentionally limit the number of weddings we take in a weekend to ensure you receive personal attention, from inquiry all the way to coffee and desert.

2) SEASONAL : when your menu is composed of the best organic, local ingredients the season can offer, the result is the most vibrant food imaginable.

3) DELICIOUS : we don't serve "wedding food". We make memorable food that tastes amazing. And we want you to taste it! Send us an email with your wedding day details, and let's get you a proposal and schedule a tasting!

Wonderful, Flexible, and Patient!

The team at Harvest Kitchen was truly wonderful. They approached our wedding and the catering planning process with patience, professionalism, and dedication! I have an autoimmune condition and they were incredibly caring in making space and adjusting the tasting menu and day of wedding menu so that I too could enjoy all of these wonderful food moments that I hoped to experience throughout the wedding planning process. They were so creative and made the most BEAUTIFUL and tasty menu for our wedding. The staff was kind and stayed dedicated throughout the whole process. They listened to our food dreams for the wedding and truly made it happen! So appreciative of Harvest Kitchen and their wonderful staff.

Absolutely Phenomenal!

Harvest Kitchen is the best in the business. We hired them for our wedding day, and they completely blew everyone away. The food was phenomenal! Guests are still commenting on it to this day. Their team was incredibly kind and professional, making the day run like a dream.

Honestly, if you're looking for a caterer that'll leave your taste buds dancing and your heart full, hit up Harvest Kitchen. They're the real deal; we couldn't be happier with our choice!

As good as it gets

We used Harvest Kitchen for our wedding and could not have been happier. The entire process, from choosing a menu and doing our tasting to service on our big day, was everything we hoped for. They also have so many options, including gluten free and vegan choices, which allowed us to create a perfect menu.

So many of our guests commented on how delicious the food was and their team went above and beyond to make our unique vision come to life. The chef even found me during our reception and made sure we loved it all! Top-notch through and through.

Above & Beyond Our Expectations

We hired Harvest Kitchen for our wedding day thinking they would provide a quality meal, but wow did they exceed our expectations for a wedding caterer!

So many guests personally came up to us and told us how delicious the food was at the wedding- the beef cheek was cooked to perfection, the Brussels sprouts had such delicious flavor, all the appetizers were mouth watering exc exc. I knew the food was delicious from our tasting, but to execute that on a larger level at a wedding is just unheard of! Many guests stated it was the best food they’ve had at a wedding EVER. One of my guests in attendance is a well known chef with very high standards and he sung the praises of the food as well as the execution of the meals. The staff had our food out in record timing- just 45 minutes for the salad & entrees. They completed such a task so seamlessly. We were beyond impressed! You'd expect such perfection to be costly but their prices are totally reasonable & affordable. I couldn't recommend HK more!

Delicious Food, Amazing Experience

Harvest Kitchen catered our wedding in May, and the food and experience was incredible. They put a delicious dinner menu together for us (fish and barbacoa tacos, black beans, spanish rice, and broccolini), and the appetizers were incredible too (ceviche, mojo shrimp, chips and guac). It was exactly what we were hoping for, all of our guests loved the food, and having the food truck at our wedding venue was fun and memorable. Samantha was a pleasure to work with throughout the entire process; she was very responsive and flexible. We recommend Harvest Kitchen to anyone who is looking for a caterer for their wedding.

Fabulous Wedding Caterer

Harvest Kitchen was perfect for our summer garden wedding. We needed someone who could balance a gluten free and picky bride, and a desire to have food be a big part of the wedding day. Harvest Kitchen was the only company we did a tasting for because we knew immediately that we wanted to hire them. Samantha (their event manager) was easy going and professional, and so nice to work with. Every single food item (appetizers, family style salad, buffet dinner) was praised by our guests, was beautiful and delicious, and definitely a highlight of our wedding. They even helped set up tables, brought ice for the bar, and made sure we (bride and groom) got cocktail appetizers while we were taking photos and a dinner plate while we were talking to guests. They were so helpful and I highly recommend them to cater your wedding.

Best wedding food ever!

Harvest Kitchen catered our wedding at Rimrock Ranch on 10/12/2019 and did an absolutely phenomenal job. Everything about the food, staff, and presentation was professional and gorgeous. My husband and I don't live in California and we didn't have a chance to do a tasting, but Harvest Kitchen came highly recommended by our venue host and the manager, Samantha, was so helpful to put together a crowd-pleasing menu for our friends and family, even going above and beyond with a last-minute weather change to help us serve coffee and hot tea. The waitstaff were incredibly friendly, and the food presentation was always just the right temperature and beautifully presented. We had two passed appetizers during cocktails: the seasoned fried chicken bite with citrus + cayenne spiced honey served on a savory rosemary pancake, and a house roasted garlic guacamole served with tortilla chips. Then, on to the family-style dinner, starting with a wild arugula + parmesan salad with toasted pine nuts, followed by generous and delicious plates of herb marinated chicken, pomegranate braised short rib, crispy brussel sprouts, mac n' cheese, farro & roots, and a grilled portobello mushroom for the vegans / vegetarians. The wait staff were so attentive and kind, and our friends and family have raved that this is the best wedding food they have had to date. Big thank you to the Harvest Kitchen team - can't thank you enough for making delicious food and family style eating the highlight of our wedding!

I would highly recommend this vendor! Food was excellent and service was incredible. Hard to cook great food for 155 people and make it taste good. Well every single guest at our wedding complimented how delicious the food was, and we had 155 guest. They keep telling us that they are still thinking about Harvest Kitchen. Wait staff were friendly and professional. Catering manager was professional, kind, knowledgeable and patient. Owner even helped the wedding planner with the grand entrance at our wedding.

Tacos Fit for a Wedding!

We are huge fans of Harvest Kitchen. We wanted something less traditional for our desert wedding, and HK took our ideas and ran with them. Once we provided the team there with our typical meal preferences, they created a creative, beautiful, and of course, delicious menu that STUNNED our guests. The passed apps, the tacos, and the sides were so special and presented in a way that made even the most rustic cuisine look elegant. Our guests raved about how different and wonderful our food was. Plus, the whole team was sweet and on top of it - Sam even brought us apps right after the ceremony and made sure we never went hungry in the madness of our wedding. We can't recommend them more highly!

Delicious!

Where to begin??! :) Harvest Kitchen Catering was just AMAZING! From beginning to end my experience was perfect. I worked with Samantha who answered all my questions, worked with our budget, helped us create a delicious wedding menu, etc. (Our guests raved about the food we served at the wedding for days -- it's seriously that good! And, everything is organic and seasonally sourced (which personally mattered to me). Plus, the food truck was such a fun addition to our wedding reception!...Honestly, I could go on and on.)

All that to say, Harvest Kitchen was great to work with and served us amazing food on our wedding day! So, if you're in the market for a food vendor I highly recommend Harvest Kitchen -- you won't be disappointed!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
