Delightful Food & Service

We hired Temecula Catering for our rehearsal dinner and were blown away by the quality of service and food. The staff was very attentive and accommodating to dietary needs of our guests. I wouldn’t hesitate to hire them again!

Delicious!

We got married at Leoness Cellars on 8/21/21 and had Temecula Catering for our catering. The food was delicious - we had 3 delicious hors d'oeuvres for cocktail hour and an amazing buffet of BBQ brisket and chicken with sides for the reception. The guests loved it, and so did we! Would definitely recommend Temecula Catering!

Gluten Free Dream

As someone who can’t eat gluten catering was a concern of mine. You never want food to taste gluten free. Everything was amazing and free of the gluten. I ate well and so did my guests!

Lisa, her chef, lead caterer, and staff were excellent. We can't thank them enough for their great service and food. Our only regret was not being able to party with them after their services ended and spending more time with them because we were running around the whole time with our photographer. Everything went so quickly. Special thanks to our chef, lead caterer, Lisa, and her staff for a wonderful night. Our wedding was a shotgun wedding, where it was all so untraditional, and we were all going with the flow. Thank you again! ;D

Temecula Catering offered us a top-notch experience from creating/choosing our menu to the services that were provided. We had a smaller wedding, but everything was done on time and they were more than accommodating with any adjustment that we needed to be made. We had a last minute notification from a guest that he recently found out that his child has allergies to nuts, dairy, and eggs. Temecula catering was able to adjust his plate and avoid using the same trays for hors d'oeuvres that had allergens with those that did not. Everyone commented on the filet being absolutely delicious, but as far as we were concerned the pan seared chicken was also amazing. Don't pass up trying the BBQ sliders as they were also a hit!

We were from out of town and planning the Rehearsal Dinner for our son and future daughter in law. Lisa took the time to listen to what we had in mind, asked questions and took our budget into consideration. Everything was perfect! The staff could not have been better- very flexible, accommodating and provided a high level of service. The food was amazing! Great catering company to work with.

Our wedding food was great!!!! We were married at Leoness Cellars and they contract with Temecula Catering to provide horderves and dinner. Our tasting was amazing! The food was so good and we were given many choices. On the day of the wedding, cocktail hour horderves were passed around by waitstaff. The horderves were perfect temperature and so good! We chose the plated dinner option. All guests were served their plate of food very quickly. The waitstaff worked really quick and made sure all guests were happy. The food was just as it tasted at the food tasting and we were completely satisfied with our meal. Thank you!!!

If I didn't just have Temecula Catering cater my wedding, I would ask Lisa to marry me. Lisa (and the rest of the staff at Temecula Catering) made our day PERFECT. Not only was our food incredible (a month later, people are still telling me how good THE SALAD was) and an insanely reasonable price, but Lisa truly went above and beyond throughout our entire planning process. She was kind, professional, prompt, and knowledgable. The actual night of the wedding was perfect as well -- the staff was so lovely and professional. We are SO thankful for everyone at Temecula Catering and thrilled with our decision to hire them for our big day.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.

I have had the opportunity to sample many fine offerings as an Officiant, but only once as the Father-of-the-Bride. When my daughter selected Leoness Cellars to host her wedding, I was initially concerned at the prospect of entrusting our meal to an off-site caterer. My fears were completely unfounded; the dinner was exemplary and the service exceptional! While the menu varies seasonally, you must try the outstanding Tri-Tip if it is available. Our guests raved about everything from the hors d'oeuvres to the main course and I couldn't have been more pleased.
