Delicious Food & Experience!!
Chef Nilsa and her team exceeded our expectations and we could not be happier with our choice to use them for our wedding!! We did not get to do a tasting since we planned from New York, however we were beyond thrilled with the incredible food and presentation. Our cocktail hour was incredible and we did some add-ons for additional passed apps and stations. We also did the lechón a la vara, and our guests could not stop talking about it and eating it!! The presentation was also so fun to add to our wedding.
Not only was the lechón a crowd favorite, but the entire spread at cocktail hour and dinner was plentiful, beautifully presented, and absolutely delicious. We loved that each dish incorporated traditional Puerto Rican flavors, and we couldn’t have been happier with how everything turned out. Our guests are still raving about the food long after the event.
Chef Nilsa also did our desserts and the set up was so perfect! We selected a variety of small desserts for our guests to enjoy and they were DELICIOUS!
Chef Nilsa was so easy to work with and accommodating.
Chef Nilsa and her team were amazing to work with and we highly recommend them!!

Simply the best!!!
If you’re reading this review and considering hiring Chef Nilsa, don’t think twice and do it! She is, without a doubt, the best in the industry.

To this day, our guests can’t stop talking about how delicious the food was and how impeccable the service was. Without a doubt, choosing Chef Nilsa was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. I would recommend her a thousand times over!If you’re reading this review and considering hiring Chef Nilsa, don’t think twice and do it! She is, without a doubt, the best in the industry.

People can't stop talking about the food
First of all the hospitality of Nilsa and her team are unmatched. Our tasting was in her own home and she has a warm loving nature that shows in her food. My guests still keep raving about her appetizers! I'm also sure people were fighting over her tuna tartar tacos haha. The main course was cooked to perfection which is incredibly hard to do on a grand scale (especially steak). Her flavors just keep you wanting to grab for bite after bite. And very reasonably priced. Thank you Nilsa and your team! For making and I quote from my mother-in-law "the best food she's ever had at a wedding"!First of all the hospitality of Nilsa and her team are unmatched.

Food, food and more food
We are absolutely foodies and Nilsa did not disappoint. Her team was able to incorporate our vision into a reality and it was delicious. Not to mention, the chef created some island staples that I haven't been able to eat in years, due to new allergy restrictions, into items I could safely eat. When you have a weird allergy, planning food for a large group can be a big issue, but they made it seamless. Not only did my husband I love everything, but so did all our guests. They even provided an amazing hot sauce for our day; our families love the spicy things in life but we also had guests that couldn't handle the heat so this was great! Nilsa also embraced our idea of late-night snacks and created some awesome finger foods to absorb the drinks. Honestly, THE BEST!!!We are absolutely foodies and Nilsa did not disappoint.

Nilsa is a class act
Nilsa was by far the most responsive caterer that works with hacienda siesta Alegre. She held a very intimate tasting with us and we had so much fun talking with her and trying her delicious food. Everything we had from start to finish was amazing at our wedding. Her and her team are true professionals and so kind. Take my advice ADD THE LECHÓN TO YOUR HAPPY HOUR. Our guests are still talking about it. The skin was so crispy you could not believe it. Absolutely amazing!

Great service!
Nilsa goes above and beyond to make sure that your special day is not forgotten. The tasting at her home was amazing with a great view and a great conversation. At the wedding, everything ran smoothly. People still talks about how good our food was! Steak skewers are the best. We ended the night with an asopao, which was so much needed and appreciated by all our guests after a full night of drinking at Bacardi (our wedding venue)!Nilsa goes above and beyond to make sure that your special day is not forgotten.

Food Was Amazing!
Nilsa's menu options were so great, that we had to fly to the PR for a tasting to make a final decision. The food was good, even the day after the wedding. I come from a long line of chefs and caters and my family and I loved Nilsa's food and presentation.

The absolute best!
I love Nilsa. My family and I are foodies, so we knew our food vendor had to be good. From the beginning she was always responsive and professional. I'm still dreaming about the food during the cocktail hour, all the Puerto Rican fried foods and the best paella ever. The sorullitos with guava sauce!!! Best I've had in my life. She was flexible with us as we were choosing between sit down and buffet, and are very happy we went with the buffet because it was beautifully presented and everything was delicious. We had a churro bar which the guests loved, and ended the night with asopao which blew everyone away. The best part of it was, Nilsa felt like a family member. She got along with all our guests, and made herself part of the party. I would hire her again in a heartbeat.I love Nilsa. My family and I are foodies, so we knew our food vendor had to be good.

La mejor Chef
La comida es DELICIOSA, los precios por la calidad de servicio y la calidad de los platos son muy buenos. Es una persona responsable, amable y muy servicial. No busques a otra persona, la comida para tu boda, si no te la hace Nilsa mejor ni alimentes a tus invitados.La comida es DELICIOSA, los precios por la calidad de servicio y la calidad de los platos son muy buenos.

Guests were RAVING!
We planned our wedding in Puerto Rico and it was important to us to have traditional flavors and delicious food. Nilsa and her team went above and beyond, with salads, rice, meats, several appetizers, all tablewear, etc. Guests were literally raving all night about the food. Ahead of our wedding, she also prepared a spectacular tasting menu for us…after a few bites, we were SOLD. I would recommend Nilsa to anyone!We planned our wedding in Puerto Rico and it was important to us to have traditional flavors and delicious food.

Best chef!
I got married last week and Chef Nilsa did the catering for our wedding.
The food was EXCELLENT and her team gave us and our guests great service!! We had a sit down dinner and everyone was served quickly and everything ran smoothly.
Nilsa is a wonderful human being. My father can be a bit picky and demanding when it comes to making sure that contracts are fair, and that everything is done PERFECT. I was impressed how well Nilsa was able to work with my dad. She is so easy going. Her focus is just to deliver the most delicious food she can do for your guests and to give excellent service to her customers.
I really felt she was a breath of fresh air to have in our team of vendors and would recommend her 1000%!!!! I was lucky to find her, because my wedding planner recommended her. She offers very fair prices (we did our research with other similar high quality chefs) and her food is TOP.I got married last week and Chef Nilsa did the catering for our wedding.

¡Sabroso y vegano!
Nilsa superó nuestras expectativas. Queríamos un catering completamente vegano para nuestra boda y que además fuera sabroso y apetitoso hasta para los carnívoros. ¡Nilsa lo logró! La comida estaba más allá de sabrosa. Nuestros invitados nos han dado tantos y tantos elogios de la comida. El menú espectacular. Desde los aperitivos para el cóctel hasta la cena. ¡Todo perfecto y la presentación bien bonita! ¡Gracias Nilsa!Nilsa superó nuestras expectativas.

Fairy tale wedding
Nilsa, her husband and their staff catered my daughter's destination wedding last Saturday, a seated dinner for 117 guests at Hacienda Siesta Alegre, Río Grande. The food was absolutely delicious, portions were generous and servers did a great job. In addition, Nilsa and Toti are delightful! I highly recommend Nilsa's catering...for a fairy tale wedding or absolutely any catering need.

Excellent service, delicious food!
I am so grateful we found Nilsa and she was available for the day of our wedding. She was incredibly responsive when we were emailing her to get a quote. We planned our wedding in PR from the states, so we did everything by email. Nilsa was also very accommodating to me since I am vegetarian, so she helped us craft the perfect menu that would please everyone. All I have to say is WOW. The food was delicious--both the hors d'oeuvres during cocktail hour, and our buffet style dinner. Our guests definitely went back for seconds and thirds and gushed over how delicious everything was. Her staff were impeccable. My husband and I were never without a full plate of food or drink. We felt like royalty. Nilsa and her husband came to greet us after dinner, and they are the sweetest couple! Thank you so much Nilsa, and team. You were a major part of making our special day absolutely unforgettable.I am so grateful we found Nilsa and she was available for the day of our wedding.

Our guests STILL talk about the food...
We were absolutely in love with Nilsa's company from the beginning. From receiving a quote, to food list, to payment, to the tasting.... it was all so enjoyable. Her presentation at the wedding was INCREDIBLE, and you can tell she really prides herself on perfection and taste. I mean, the appetizers alone were soooo mouthwateringly good. GO WITH HER RECOMMENDATIONS! Her staff were on time, respectful, and we even had 1 waiter dedicated to US (bride and groom) the entire evening. For example, when we started cocktail hour, we went off to take our couple's photos and our waiter was there with a huge plate of appetizers and drinks of our choice to enjoy in between shoots. Also, he offered to serve us our food and bring it to our table. He kept waiting on us and asking if we needed anything which was AMAZING. If I had to think of anything we would have liked to change, it would be the dessert sizes. Unfortunately we asked for a dessert bar of 3 kinds, and the sizes were literally tiny lol. You could eat it in 1 bite, which I think for a price of $300+ we should have better portions. Otherwise the dessert was delicious. And secondly, we were very sad we did not have leftovers packed in boxes for us. We're not sure why (perhaps there weren't any?) but its true what they say, you don't get to fully enjoy your wedding food. We ate a plate but in between the nerves and the toasts and greetings, we didn't get to TRULY savor and enjoy the dinner. I wish we could have had a to-go box prepared for us for the following day to eat. Of course these are small details, but we were VERY happy with our experience with Nilsa!! Our guests will reminisce about our wedding and bring up the food EVERY SINGLE TIME lol :) it was the best they ever had! I agree!We were absolutely in love with Nilsa's company from the beginning.

Outstanding food & excellent service 👍🏼👍🏼
Delicious buffet and excellent customer service from first contact. Professional staff/servers. In planning our wedding the catering was priority since many of our guest are food critics 😆 or so it seems, and surely they came through with high praises for the Chef and staff. Three weeks later and we’re still getting high compliments on the delicious hors d’oeuvres and the variety of buffet entries to please all guest. The Paella eaters couldn’t stay away. I don’t eat seafood but most of my guest do, so we added the Spanish all seafood paella. A must. Got outstanding compliments on the paella. The staff was very professional including Marie. Quick easy communication. My hubby is from the island, so we will be contracting Chef Nilsa for all our future events. THANK YOU Chef Nilsa! You made our event one to be talked about and we are loving it 😉Delicious buffet and excellent customer service from first contact. Professional staff/servers.

Just amazing!!!!!
This is the best food, service and presentation ever!!! I still get friends comments telling me how it was the best wedding food they have ever had. Even my most picky guests were very impressed and couldn't stop eating. From the appetizers to the buffet and the chefs soup at the end of the night everything was just incredible. Nilsa went above and beyond to make all our dreams come true and she really exceeded our expectations.This is the best food, service and presentation ever!!!

Coming from New Orleans, having amazing food at our wedding reception was one of our highest priorities from the beginning. We totally nailed it. From the moment Nilsa and her partner, Toti, invited us into their beautiful San Juan apartment for a tasting overlooking the ocean, we knew she would be our caterer. We fell so much in love with Nilsa and her food that when we had to reschedule our wedding due to the hurricane, she was a non-negotiable as the vendor we would schedule around. Her warmth and love for the food she creates permeate every delicious bite that she served to us and our guests. Our wedding posed the added challenge of having a number of vegans in attendance - Nilsa was unphased, creating outstanding food in every course for all our guests, from the vegans to the biggest carnivores in the bunch. She and her staff took care of us all night, ensuring we had a special plate and were able to taste every mouth-watering morsel. Guests raved about the food, from the pass-around appetizers and the buffet-style dinner to the desserts and traditional white bean soup served as an extra treat at the end of the night. We could not recommend a vendor more highly, and are already looking for excuses to cross paths with Nilsa and Toti again in the future. From two hard-core food lovers to others wanting to ensure you and your guests will be obsessed with the food you serve at your wedding: trust us, you want Nilsa.Coming from New Orleans, having amazing food at our wedding reception was one of our highest priorities from the beginning.

A Culinary Masterpiece – Nilsa’s Catering Made Our Wedding Unforgettable!
We couldn’t be happier with Nilsa’s Catering—she delivered an exceptional gastronomic experience that perfectly blended authentic Puerto Rican flavors with American cuisine, just as we envisioned. Nilsa truly listened to our requests and creatively merged both cultures into a menu that wowed all of our guests.
Not only was the food absolutely delicious and cooked to perfection, but the presentation was stunning, and every dish was kept at the perfect temperature throughout the night. Her attention to detail was evident in every bite, making our wedding meal feel like a true culinary experience rather than just another catered event.
Beyond the incredible food, Nilsa’s staff was professional, attentive, and highly trained, ensuring that everything ran smoothly. They were welcoming, detail-oriented, and contributed to making our celebration even more special.
We are beyond thrilled that we chose Nilsa’s Catering for our wedding—it was one of the best decisions we made! If you’re looking for a caterer who delivers exceptional food, impeccable service, and a beautiful setup, Nilsa is the one to hire.
Thank you, Nilsa, for making our wedding feast truly unforgettable!
