Wow! Melon's Catering was the best thing about our wedding. With all the changes we went through due to the pandemic, I was SO happy to have Melon's as our caterer. Ann helped us through the entire process start to finish, and she really knows her stuff. They even were able to source a cigar roller 2 weeks before the event which was a HUGE hit! Our guests are STILL talking about how amazing all the food was and that it was the best food they have had at a wedding! The food, their professionalism, and their attention to detail makes them the best in the business. I can't thank them enough!

We cannot say enough about this place. We are a couple from Miami, FL and had a destination wedding San Francisco. 1) Never plan a cross country or international wedding, it's a major headache. 2) If you do, HIRE MELON'S!! Darryl and his team were thee most accommodating and kindest people to work with. We were able to do an amazing tasting (which btw is worth every single penny), customize our menu, and pick out all our rentals.

Melon's worked with us for nearly a year, to get the exact look we wanted, that also matched and fit in our budget. Darryl was so patient with our 500 calls and understood the complications with planning a cross-country wedding.

The day of could not have been better! I can't thank Darryl and his team for their amazing work. Everyone from our wedding actually ate and finished ALL of the courses. The food and presentation was incredible. The veggie options were very delicious (at least the people who ordered it, said so). If I had to plan an event again in the Bay area, I would not even hesitate to call Melon's to do it!

We absolutely loved working with Melons and our coordinator, Sheldon. We got so many compliments on the food, from the appetizers to the dessert. I would highly recommend them (and have to several friends) and hope to use them in the future for other events.

When my husband and I decided to throw a wedding together in 3 months we asked ourselves what were the most important things about our day. We decided it was the photography and the food. After going through several vendors we chose Melons because of their reputation not only with the food but the service as well. They also are very transparent with what you are getting in terms of food, service, linens and serveware, which I didn't get with other vendors (lots of superflous costs and 'cheaper' prices that turned out to be due to cheap flatware/serveware (think nice plastic).

We also chose Melons because they use local and organic ingredients, when possible. This makes a big difference in the quality of the food and I like supporting local vendors. We wanted our atmosphere to be relaxed & friendly, so we chose a family style service, which turned out to be perfect. Everyone loved the food (there was nothing left). Our guests are still commenting, months later, about how great the food was. It really was amazing. It was even better than our sit-down trial.

I also must mention Sheldon, the manager/coordinator. He is incredibly professional, calm and lovely to work with. He was very transparent at all times, on top of everything, and made our day run so smoothly. We really enjoyed working with him. While Melons isn't the cheapest vendor, they are 100% worth the money, I promise. I asked my husband if he was glad we spent the money for better food and he said, hands down, YES. So if the quality of food (and service) is important to you, I would recommend Melons above everyone in the Bay Area.

It's incredibly hard to find people you can trust when planning a wedding - but Melon's always had my best interest in mind. I worked with Sheldon, who not only made solid recommendations that fit my budget, but also was a true gentleman start to finish.

Communication with the Melon's team was strong and they were honest in managing expectations and time. In many ways they went out of their way to accommodate me.

I am a New Yorker who recently got married at the Flood Mansion on 11-11-11. Planning a wedding on the opposite coast was somewhat difficult. For example, tasting the food. We did an original tasting with a group of couples and fell in love with their food 3 bites into hors d'oeuvres. But when it came down to finalizing our menu a month out I couldn't make it out to SF. They were kind enough let one of my bridesmaids taste our menu to ensure we were comfortable and happy with the selections. The Melon's Team was great about working through finalizing the contract and incredibly patient as many ideas get tossed in and out.

The day of everything came together beautifully. The staff was a pleasure to work with and my guests are still raving about the food and wine. Everything was beyond my dreams.

You can trust Melon's to capture every catering element you are looking for when planning your wedding - but most of all, you can trust they have your best interest always.

Thank you Sheldon!

Melons provided impeccable service and the food was spectacular.

Sheldon took charge of all rentals and organizational needs. Sheldon was kind, caring and attentive. He ensured that the entire wedding went off without a hitch.

Steven the chef and his team created everything on site by turning the garage into their kitchen. The quality of the food and the presentation was 5 star caliber. All of our guests commented. We had 6 passed appetizers and cocktails prior to the wedding, the tomato tart and arugula salad were refreshing the fabulous leg of lamb and halibut as entree options are still being talked about.

The staff was wonderful, Sheldon and Steven were wonderful. All of our guests commented on how professional and gracious the staff was.

I would use Melons Catering for any future event.

Superb food and personalized service. My wedding guests still rave about the food at my wedding to this day and it is almost a year ago.

Melons was outstanding!! I didn't have to worry about anything. Not only do they provide great food and decor, they essentially are a day of wedding planning service too. I worked with Ann and she was so organized and in charge. She was my point person for everything and I absolutely loved working with her!! I have to give the chef credit too, as I got many comments from guests that it was the best food they have ever had at a wedding. Melons handled my favors too (3 cookies in custom designs that represented my husband and I). They were so cute and fun that I had one friend use them for her wedding too!

The food was great! All of the guests said it was the best catered food at a wedding that they had ever had. Melons staff was a pleasure to work with and very accommodating to all my food requests (I have a lot of food allergies and a pretty strict diet because I am diabetic). Melons made delicious food that everyone enjoyed, even though it was tailored to me! Since I can't eat dessert, I had no input on the cupcakes we served--absolutely none except the color of the icing so that it matched our color scheme! Apparently, they were delicious--I can't tell you how many people came to me after and commented on the cupcakes! They created something memorable and yummy with no direction from me at all! I highly recommend Melons!

This company was on top of everything. Food was excellent, flowers were beautiful, and service was friendly to all our guests.
