    Griselda's Catering did an amazing job on my daughter's wedding! The buffet was delicious, the tables with linens and china were beautiful, the bartender service was excellent, and the price was reasonable. Griselda and her staff were very professional and extra helpful even putting out the floating candle vases and the wedding guest gifts we brought. She set up a free tasting of her wonderful food choices before the wedding. Everything went seamlessly. Griselda was a true pleasure to work with, I highly recommend her!

    Griselda was an AMAZING caterer. Food was very important to me and my husband on our wedding day as we had eaten our share of bland, cold wedding food and we love to eat. I knew I wanted an outside caterer, and I knew I wanted Mexican food. Griselda was so accommodating and kind, it was like I had known her for years. We met her for a tasting and fell in love immediately, everything was delicious and it even turned out that she had owned the restaurant my mom had hung out at when she was younger and had a lot of parallels to my family: it was totally destiny. When the big day came, she was a better coordinator than even my actual day-of coordinator for my wedding site! Everything ran smoothly, everyone got to eat, and we got so many compliments (and handed out so many business cards)! I would highly recommend Griselda to anyone hosting an event. A year later, and my husband and I still talk about the food and her service. We loved her!

    My wife and I picked the venue first which was the Library Galleria in downtown Sacramento. The venue required we go through their preferred vendors for food and drink. After thumbing through every caterer, Griselda's was the best decision because of the flexibility, the reviews, and finally the price. We booked the venue about one year from the wedding date and took about a whole month to select our caterer. Griselda's reputation really sold us as we heard nothing but great reviews. Lucky for me I was able to test her out booking an event I had to organize and everything was good to go. We then used Griselda for our baby shower and everyone one of our guests loved the food so it was a no brainer to use them for our wedding. Now my fiance was extremely organized and had a whole underwater vision and Griselda brought it to life. She was very available to us even though I know she was extremely busy with tons of other events and weddings. We would email, call, text everything! We probably met about 5-6 times at her offices at the State Capitol and she always showed great hospitality and really could tell she wanted this to be a great event. About 3 months before the wedding we made the best decision of our lives and paid her to be on site coordinator which was well worth the money which allowed us to not have to worry about all of our vendors and their questions, set up times, etc. Highly recommend Griselda's to anyone out there. She may not be the cheapest but if you want to do your wedding right she is the one to call. She was running around all over during the wedding and had her little clipboard and the night ran so smoothly with zero issues or hiccups. Wish we could go back in time and just experience the wedding just for a minute. In the end, our guests were amazed, my wife was thrilled which is really all that matters. Can't wait to see all the photos and videos.

    Griselda's catering was top notch...not only was she friendly but professional as well. She went far and beyond on wedding and made it even more special :-) My guest are still commenting on how delicious the food was along with the overall display of detail and care that was put into the presentation of the food. I definitely recommend anyone getting married and/or having a special event to look into having Griselda cater it....she is a five star caterer!!

    Griselda's Catering is the absolute best! Not only are they super easy to work with and flexible...something critical for me because I changed my mind and added to or adjusted my order weekly; they also go above and beyond to make your day absolutely perfect. They catered our wedding, an intimate affair with dinner at our home. We were running late from the ceremony of course, so they just did all the little extras they weren't required to do without me having to ask. They thought about things before I had to which was so fantastic because I hadn't hired a planner. They boxed up all the leftovers and put them in the fridge and even left the rentals at my home because the party was still going! They were very quiet the next morning coming to pick everything up which was greatly appreciated. Overall, I would use them for every single thing I do, the food was really amazing and the staff was exceptional. Doesn't get much better.

    Griselda and her staff have been helping and supporting our organization for a number of years. As a non-profit organization, we most appreciate her flexibility and willingness to work with us on a price that is within our budget, yet the quality of food and service remain the tops.

    My husband and I were very happy we went with Griselda. Everyone at our wedding commented on how much they loved the food! Especially the appetizers, mini tamales, burritos, and quesadillas! We went with the Latin Buffet and when we wanted a few changes Griselda didn't hesitate to oblige. The set up was wonderful and they cut our cake for free! The day before our wedding she even called to let me that everything was in order to relax and they would take care of everything. I would totally go with Griselda again for any other event.

    I was 100% satisfied with Griselda's catering. They were very professional and had great service. When things went wrong at the reception, her staff helped make things better. They were so prepared, they were just waiting for the event to start. Her staff helped things run smoothly. I could not have been more satisified. The food was wonderful and would hire them again if I had to do it all over.

    Griselda provides the very best and personal service a bride could hope for. She really goes the extra mile to complete your vision. I was a very specific bride who really hoped for things to be a certain way and Griselda gave me everything I had hoped for with a smile. The food was great, innovative, and perfect for every guest. Her staff is so friendly and warm.

    Griselda provided the best catering services I have ever found. The food was absolutely amazing! I got so many compliments on how great the food was. I received compliments such as, “the food from Griselda’s was better than any other wedding.” I couldn’t agree more! There were so many choices. I had enchiladas, mole, chile verde, and tamales as my entrees. I have to say they were all to die for! Best tasting Mexican food ever! The staff from Griselda’s was so professional and personable. Her employees serviced the bar, the buffet, and clean-up after the wedding; all which they handled great! Everyone was so tired after the wedding so it was great to have the staff there to complete all the clean-up. I really have to say that Griselda’s Catering is amazing at what they do!! There is not one bad thing I have to say about them. They helped make my day really special! I am glad people will remember my wedding as the one with the best food and service ever! I plan to go back to Griselda for all my catering needs in the future.

    I have nothing but the utmost praise for Griselda's Catering and would highly recommend her for other brides. She was an absolute dream to work with during the wedding planning process with her professionalism and recommendations which made my wedding day a huge success. The food was delicious and it was amazing how she transformed the room into a beautiful and romantic dining area for the reception.

    Griselda was amazing. I had alot of questions and she answered all of them. She really cares about her brides and wants to make sure that their big days are absolutely perfect.

    Griselda is great! Everyone is so professional! They recently hired a new wedding planning coordinator and she is SO awesome. We were able to customize our food to meet what we wanted and our vegetarian guests' needs. PLUS there are different rewards for paying without credit or for signing a catering contract within a certain amount of time (I won't ruin the surprise but they're excellent)!

    The day of, the caterers were wonderful. Griselda herself was our coordinator and everything went smoothly. Plenty of food for everyone and they were sure that no one had empty glasses at the head table for the toast (something I've seen people worry about in reviews about caterers). Highly recommend Griselda's! It was not as expensive as many other companies we looked at but the quality of the food was still awesome.

    I cannot say enough good things about Griselda's Catering! The food was great; many of our guests told us how much they enjoyed it, and that it was not your typical 'wedding chicken.' Geri Ann Alviso and Griselda were great to work with, and were very helpful.

    Griselda's catered our wedding last night and we could not have been happier with the service and the food! From our very first appointment they were extremely knowledgeable and helpful in helping us to create the menu. We knew we didn't want typical "wedding food," and they helped us to put together a fantastic buffet with plenty of options for everyone. We were blown away with how good the food was at our tasting, and it tasted just as delicious at the wedding. So many people came up to me to tell me how good our foods was. Griselda herself and the wedding coordinator, Geri, are both a pleasure to work with and were so helpful even with the smaller details like table linens and glassware. They were also NEVER pushy and offered a variety of options to help us stay within our budget. They took special care of us on our wedding day, even making certain that we even had a tray of appetizers reserved for when we arrived. We have no doubt that we made the best choice with Griselda's.
