    The Ideal Caterer

    Martino’s Catering was spectacular! The food was delicious, and my guests are still talking about it. I highly recommend the Chicken Novello, trust me! Odalys is amazing! She was so helpful, responsive, and accommodating. I loved my experience working with them!

    Multi-Day Private Event in Ojai

    I reached out to Martino's Catering for a two-day event at a Private Residence in Ojai. I was considering them due to their high ratings and extensive menu. Odalys was an excellent communicator from the beginning. We had many special requests, and the location was bare bones. The Martino's Catering team handled it all with confidence and grace. Apart from the administrative / coordinating team, the staff was incredibly professional and kind. It was one of the hottest weekends of the month and the team was still so positive and great to work with. We haven't even touched on how spectacular the food was. Everything was beautiful, fresh, and delicious. Guest favorites included the custom pasta bar and the custom omelet bar. Their salmon and tri-tip disappeared quickly! Overall, Martino's Catering exceeded the expectations we had for them and out client requested that they cater every event they have going forward. They were an excellent value for the quality of service and food. We will be using Martino's Catering again in the very near future! Thank you Team!

    Great Experience! Best Vendor we talked to

    As you know, weddings can be very expensive. We talked to a lot of different vendors and we came upon Martinos. They had the best quality and pricing for our large wedding of 250 guests. Would highly recommend!

    Excellent Service and Food

    I would highly recommend anyone looking to cater an event to check out Martino's. I have personally used them for two events – I hosted a bridal shower luncheon in May, and the presentation and food were fantastic. My son’s wedding was last weekend, and the appetizers and dinner were absolutely wonderful. We were extremely impressed by their all-around service and attention to detail. We will utilize Martino's for any future events that require catering.

    Martinos Catering's reply:

    Thank you Sue for taking some time to give us a review. We were happy to be a part of the bridal shower and Stephen and Brynn's wedding. Congratulations to both of them on their wedding and we hope to cater more events for you and your family in the future!

    Best,
    Odalys, Vanessa, Chef Martin, and the entire Martino's Staff

    Martino's Catering was the star of our wedding and rehearsal dinner! I cannot say enough to describe the quality of the food and service they provided us. Martin created a custom authentic Mexican inspired menu that surpassed all our expectations. We traveled to Mexico for our honeymoon and I have to say his food was better than some we had while there. From tacos, to chicken mole, to enchiladas and chile rellenos and homemade churros...it was ALL amazing...fresh and homemade!

    Martino's also catered our rehearsal dinner and created a Italian inspired menu. They can do it all, it was so hard to choose! It was very important to us that we did not serve the cookie cutter wedding food that you could find in any country club or hotel, and we definitely met our goal!

    Overall the presentation was immaculate, the staff was so helpful and accommodating, and everyone involved from start to finish was a pleasure to work with! Vanessa spent so much time with us via phone and email making sure every last detail was perfect. I would recommend Martino's Catering to anyone looking to host an elegant, one-of-a-kind event.

    Amazing food

    Martinos catering was an excellent choice for our wedding! Everyone raved about how great the food was and many went for seconds. The tasting was great, and they were very flexible as we navigated 3 different wedding dates during the pandemic. They were affordable compared to other companies in the area and still had very good service and food. One minor recommendation is to remind them to save some passes appetizers if you want to try them- they ran out while we were taking pictures, but we had more than enough food from the main courses to fill ourselves.

    Wedding Caterer = AMAZING

    Martino's was very helpful in the planning process. They have a cute little spot for tasting the menu and provided excellent service at our wedding in Solvang, CA. The food was DELICIOUS! All of our guests told us how much they loved it. I wish I saved a second plate to snack on during the reception. HIGHLY recommend! We also had them bartend for us. The staff was fun and got the job done. THANK YOU!

    Martinos Catering's reply:

    Thank you so very much for taking a moment to leave us a review and for allowing us to be part of your special day! It was a pleasure serving you and your loved ones on such a beautiful day. Congratulations once again to you and Nick.

    Martino's was our wedding caterer, and they did such an incredible job. They worked with us through all the changes that COVID brought about, and supported us on our big day. They had excellent communication, and worked to make our vision a reality. The food was so delicious! Thank you for making our day so special and being a wonderful partner in the wedding planning process!

    Best caterer in Southern California

    Martinos catering has been our best wedding vendor. Our original wedding date was 9/26/20 but due to covid19 we chose to reschedule for next year and unlike other vendors they did not require a change date fee. Their professionalism, customer service, and food is always great to say the least. I would highly recommend Martinos for any event. Thank you Martino, Vanessa, and staff.

    Martinos Catering's reply:

    Thank you Violette for taking some time to give us a review, we were saddened to postpone, but we are looking forward to catering your wedding next year. If you want a menu change.....we can do a 2nd tasting :-)

    Truly amazing!

    Martino's catering was more than what we could've asked for. Our guest complemented the food all night! Not only was the food amazing, but the service and set-up was also exceptional. Our guest and ourselves felt extremely taken care of by the staff the entire evening, from the moment they arrived until the moment they left. Martino's made our experience so smooth, from the moment we booked we knew we were in good hands. Thank you so much for making our perfect day come true!

    Martinos Catering's reply:

    Thank you, Elena and Eric, for trusting our family-owned business to be a part of your wedding day! It was our pleasure and we wish you guys the best and look forward to catering to some events for you in the near future!

    Excellent food, staff, and service!

    Martino’s Catering exceeded expectations for serving our May 2019 wedding at Camarillo ranch! Coordination with staff was a delight and catering presentation was phenomenal, and all the guests raves about the Santa Maria BBQ buffet menu. The bartender was also a blast!

    Best Carpinteria area wedding Caterer!

    Martinos handled our wedding in March of 2019 in Carpinteria, CA. They were very helpful in adapting custom menu items that fit our theme of Spanish and Italian cuisine for our guests and accommodated a gluten free and vegetarian option that we requested. The tasting was delicious, and generous portions and they had plenty of options for appetizers that were all great. We opted for hosted buffet service so guests could choose their options, and there was plenty of food. The staff was very presentable and helpful and the plates, tableware, and glasses were all in perfect shape. Would defiantly use them again for any event in the area, great food and great prices!

    Great experience and great food

    We used Martino’s Catering for our wedding this fall. They were amazing to work with. They were responsive, flexible, and really listened and accommodated our needs. The staff was very professional and my guests were SO excited to have Mexican food at our wedding. The food was delicious and myself and our guests were all really happy. Would use them again for an event in a heartbeat.

    Amazing catering!

    Martino’s did an incredible job catering our wedding. Vanessa & team really went above and beyond.. we opted to go with a taco bar and they knocked the taco’s out of the park. The wedding was last weekend and I’m still receiving complementary text messages. Several folks described the tacos as the best wedding food they’ve had! I’m clearly bias but... I agree!

    Beyond the food, we also rented utensils, tables, plates, linens, chair, etc from them. When we arrived at the venue, we were excited to see everything perfectly arranged and beautifully decorated to match the theme of our wedding. Early in the planning stages, we’d discussed renting market umbrellas but decided to cut them due to cost. When walked outside we found Martino’s had setup the umbrellas for us! It was such a sweet surprise and it meant a lot to us.

    Overall, we had an amazing experience with Martino’s and would highly recommend their team to anyone hoping to have amazing food and service at large event.

    Martinos Catering's reply:

    Thank you Pauline for taking the time to give us a review. We love surprising our clients with extra items whenever possible. Congratulations to you and Drew, we wish both of you the very best!
