    People were shocked at how good the food was

    I can’t express how great the staff was! As the bride, they checked in with me to make sure everything was going smoothly and that I had everything I needed. Guests came up to me saying they couldn’t believe how good the food was and how it was cooked to the perfect temperature. Thank you for everything you did! Wouldn’t have changed a thing.

    Park Ave is a must hire for your wedding!

    Park Ave Catering has been an absolute dream to work with. They catered our wedding and truly blew us away with their professionalism, responsiveness, and excellence! Not only is the food insanely great, the staff is amazing and the coordinators are top notch. They handled all of the rentals for us, kept the event running on time, and did it all with the best attitude. I would highly recommend them for your wedding or event. Absolutely a must hire.

    Spectacular!

    PAC is just spectacular! Anthony was so wonderful and easy to work with - he was great at answering all our questions and crafting the service we envisioned. On top of that, he had awesome suggestions that really helped make the dining experience (without being too forceful with those suggestions). Everyone raved about the food - so many of our guests said it was the best food at a wedding they ever had! They even gave my wife and I a tote with leftovers and cake at the end of the evening - a nice touch that's so emblematic of the fantastic service they provide. The staff was great - so many people complimented on how nice the bartenders were, which I feel like you never hear!

    Great Catering Team

    As a wedding and event planner, I highly recommend Park Ave Catering. We had the pleasure of working with Justine on all of our logistics and tasting, and the day of crew with Marc at the lead was just as amazing! From the start they are responsive and helpful, source the most delicious and local items, the tasting was a dream, the team arrived on time and ready to hammer out set up, pivoting with unexpected rain sprinkles up to the very last moment, communicative and always ready to go along with the set timeline. I didn't have to worry about them, such a collaborative team. Most of all, pleasant to be around, a team you really want to work alongside and have interacting with your guests. The service, the food, the bar and drinks, setup and strike, was all spot on and floated through the event. I look forward to working with PAC again in the near future.

    Summer 2023 wedding

    Anthony and the team at Park Ave catered for our wedding.

    From the outset the experience was excellent, from booking, tasting and menu choices the team were really accommodating and worked with us to deliver the wedding of our dreams.

    The food was incredible with a number of our guests commenting on how it was the best they had had at a wedding!

    I can’t recommend them enough, Thank you Park Ave!

    Park Avenue Catering at Viansa Winery

    We couldn't be more happy with our decision to go with Park Avenue Catering for our special day in August at Viansa Winery! From the very beginning, the entire team was very professional, creative, and caring. We worked closely with Anthony, who always listened to what we wanted and offered up his incredible expertise when needed. He was also very responsive over email or phone, which was important to us because we were planning a wedding from all the way across the country. We were even more excited to have PA Catering at our wedding after our tasting as everything we trialed was absolutely delicious and presented beautifully. So many guests came up to us during the wedding reception to tell us that not only was the food the best wedding food they had ever had but some of the best food in general that they had ever had. We can't say enough positive things to say about this team! They even boxed up our 2 meal choices and some dessert for me and my husband to have the next day. Photos below show passed hors'doeuvres, drinks, and desserts captured by Olivia Marshall Photography!

    I would give them 100 stars if I could!

    Absolutely incredible experience with Park Avenue Catering. We got married at Viansa Winery in Sonoma and the planning process to execution was seamless. Cannot speak more highly of Anthony!!! He was responsive, organized, and just a super kind human! I felt like I was working with a close friend who truly cared about creating the most perfect day for us: from a detailed initial survey asking about our food styles and preferences to creating a unique blue cheese and pear pizza at my vegetarian husband's request for our late night pizza oven (which we still talk about - delicious!)

    Our guests are still raving about the food! For a 125 person wedding, every dish was as fresh, delicious, and beautifully presented as you'd experience at a high-end Sonoma restaurant. The catering service was also top-notch. Thanks Park Avenue for the wedding of our dreams!

    We had Park Ave cater our wedding and our guest were raving about them all night. The food was phenomenal, the drinks were so skillfully made and Anthony was an absolute pleasure to work with. We couldn't have been happier with the process or the outcome. You will be glad you hired Park Ave!

    Park Ave Catering is the Best!

    We loved working with Park Avenue catering! Anthony was a pleasure to work with! He was very accommodating to our requests and changes to the menu we wanted. On our wedding day, the food was incredible! All of our guests loved the food and would not stop talking about it. The staff was also very courteous and friendly to our guests. We would not hesitate to hire them again for any future event. We highly recommend them for your wedding caterer!

    Amazing Service and Delicious Food!

    We LOVED working with Park Ave Catering. We worked closely with Anthony and had a great time curating our tray-pass appetizers, plated two-course dinner, and bar menu/signature cocktails. We had a summer wedding in Sonoma and we could not be happier. Our guests were blown away at not only the incredible flavors and tastes of the food but also the presentation. The quality was unlike anything we’ve ever seen at a wedding before and we felt incredibly lucky to have chosen such an incredible caterer. The food was actually some of the best food we've had at restaurants even! Beyond the actual food, Anthony was so easy to work with. By the end of our wedding he felt like more of a friend than our caterer. We can’t recommend Park Avenue Catering enough!

    Simply the BEST!

    Anthony and his team at Park Avenue Catering are simply the best. We hired them for our wedding in July and from start to finish the customer service was superb and the food was amazing. Each and every one of our guests said it was the best food they'd ever had at a wedding.

    From the start, Anthony set up a great tasting so that we could decide on menu items. He made suggestions based on the season and the vision we had for our wedding. He was extremely helpful in going over bar items I needed to get for the open bar since I didn't have a clue where to start!

    Leading up to the event, he was completely calm and responsive to all our last minute requests - including for plant based and gluten free dieters on our guest list. He and his team set aside some snacks and bubbly for me and my new husband immediately after the ceremony so we could have a brief moment alone and enjoy a few tastes before getting back to photos and guests.

    Our meal was served family style at each of the tables, but his staff made special plates just for my husband and I so we were sure to have a full plate of food. The staff was so attentive to all our guests, including our parents who had mobility issues, they would check on them to make sure they had everything they needed.

    At the end of the evening, they had packed a very special "picnic bag" with some leftovers, fruit, brownies and cake since as we all know, the bride and groom rarely get a chance to eat all they want. It really made my night!

    I literally didn't have to worry about a thing the whole day when it came to the food and beverages, I can't recommend Park Avenue Catering enough, you won't be disappointed!

    Best Wedding Meal EVER!

    I can’t stop raving about our wedding caterers at Park Avenue Catering! Sharon was an absolute dream to work with and was so kind, thorough, and just a gem. Every guest RAVED about our menu selection. The miso black cod was a fan favorite and I am still hearing how much it was loved to this day. Thanks SO much for being the best caterers we could have ever asked for!

    Truly excellent food, service, and people

    We were so thrilled that we partnered with Park Ave Catering for our June 2023 wedding at Viansa Sonoma!! PAC were incredible from the first consultation. We loved working with Anthony who helped us realize our vision and gave great advice as we thought through our decisions/changes. The tasting was also a wonderful experience as we were very pleased with all the different food options. We were equally impressed by the service team and food at the wedding. PAC service team made everything go as smooth as possible - they kept the line for the bar short, made sure the bride/groom also received apps/drinks despite all the activity, were pleasant with all our guests, the meal (family style) tasted as good as when we tried it at our tasting, and guests were raving about the appetizers and main courses the next day. We had an amazing experience with the PAC team and I would not hesitate to book your event with them - true professionals.

    Absolutely perfect

    Park Avenue catered my daughter's wedding this June. They served 100 guests in a vineyard from a mobile kitchen and everything was perfect. The food was amazing in the tasting and exactly the same at the wedding! Caitlin and all of the staff were polite, efficient, hardworking and professional. I have never had so many guests come up to me raving about the food and the service. They worked with us every step of the way, were responsive, informative and no question was unanswered. I would highly recommend Park Avenue!

    The Most Delicious Food, and the Most Efficient and Professional Service

    It was an easy decision and one of our best while wedding planning to book Park Avenue as our caterer! We knew of their stellar service and delicious food as guests at other weddings and local events and were in the best hands for our special day. Our sisters both hired PAC as their wedding caterers, and it just goes to show that they’ve been consistently a top performer in the Sonoma County and Bay Area for years to be chosen for all our weddings! Our guests were raving about the food, and the service went so smoothly. They worked in harmony with our planner and other vendors and truly did an amazing job executing our wedding food, dessert, and bartending. We were so well taken care of from day one, and consistently had great communication via phone, email, and in person tastings along the way. We’re so grateful to their entire team for their continued talents and efforts to make our wedding and many others the absolute best!

    Amazing Service and Food

    Park Avenue Catering was the best decision we made for our wedding. Not only were our wedding guests complimenting how amazing the food was, but Anthony and his team are amazing. They are very detailed in their preparation and communication. Thanks to Park Avenue we had an amazing and smooth day for our wedding.

    An absolute must

    We will never be able to get over how amazing Park Avenue Catering is! Our friends bring up how amazing the food was at our wedding every time we see them. From working with Anthony and his team on the menu to perfect execution of the food on our wedding day, it was such an easy process and we are so grateful! We had an oyster bar and charcuterie board (which was STUNNING) at cocktail hour, along with signature drinks - so fun! The beer selection is awesome and for dinner we did family style - it was perfect with great options. We had the tri-tip, pesto pasta, & chicken - the food was so delicious!!!!

    Amazing experience with a vegan wedding

    We were absolutely blown away by the experience we had with Park Avenue. Caitlin was an absolute joy to work with and we would not have had our dream wedding without her. She truly went above and beyond her role in catering, often pitching in to give mental peace with a recommendation (like when we were struggling to find a last minute vendor), and coordinating a very complex "blank slate" venue worth of rentals.

    We had some specific requests that were off the beaten path a bit (an all vegan menu with a "fermentation bar" of brandy cocktails to fit the winery regulations against liquor), and these were executed with class, flare and attention to detail... not to mention delicious.

    Needless to say, some of our guests were skeptical of the vegan food menu going into the event. But we have been getting nonstop compliments from everyone- even the most skeptical person on the guest list!

    We can't say enough good things about park ave team and are still basking in the afterglow of our perfect dream of a wedding night. Can't recommend these people enough.

    Park Avenue was amazing!!

    We hired Park Avenue catering for our wedding this past weekend at Vine Hill House and we’re so happy we did! We worked with Caitlin who was extremely patient with us, answered all of our questions/emails in a timely manner, and gave us really great suggestions when we asked for recommendations. She helped us along in the process and made sure every detail was accounted for, which can get really overwhelming very fast. The tasting was really fun, and it definitely gave us a great sense of what the food would be like the day of.

    On the wedding day, her team did a great job of serving our bar and the food quickly, and were extremely kind to our guests and our dog! We did family style, and the food was delicious (and hot!) and served in a timely manner (which doesn’t happen at every wedding). Everyone loved it, and couldn’t stop telling us it was the best wedding food they ever had (the salmon was my FIL’s favorite!) and there was tons of portions to go around. They even helped pack up the leftover alcohol and gave us a little to go bag of food that we ate later that night. We highly recommend working with Park Ave, they made our wedding fantastic!

    Look no further!

    Park Avenue exceeded all of our expectations! Good food was a top priority at our wedding, and PAC delivered. We got married a month ago and our guests are still raving about it. Truly the best food we've ever had at any catered event. We live out of state, and were a bit nervous about planning from afar, but Justine made the whole experience so much fun and stress-free. We were also incredibly impressed with the professionalism of the whole team the night of the wedding - everything was seamless. We went with the fermentation bar and our guests loved it. And the to-go bag at the end of the night was awesome!

    Park Avenue was amazing from start to finish!

    We booked Park Avenue Catering early on in the planning process for our daughter's wedding at Trentadue Winery. Park Avenue was highly recommended by our venue, and we could not have been more pleased with the outcome. Justine was incredible to work with from start to finish. She listened to what we wanted but also gave super helpful advice along the way. The food was amazing, and the staff were organized and wonderful during the event. They do so many wonderful special little touches that meant so much to our daughter and her husband on their special day. We never had to worry for one second about the catering once we wisely brought Park Ave Catering on board. I can think of nothing that could be improved upon. Park Avenue is in a word, fabulous!

    Fantastic food with all in one service

    I never stopped being impressed by the value, quality, and professionalism of the Park Avenue team. Catering was probably our most important vendor and we knew we wanted great food and drinks more than anything else at our wedding, but we also expected a challenge finding a fantastic caterer who could provide restaurant quality food at our backyard/estate wedding Park Avenue came through in so many ways. Not only was the food SOOOO good (we got so many compliments on it), but they also were able to provide us with serving staff, bartenders, glassware, and silverware as part of our contract AND serve food from a kitchen setup on site. It was so much peace of mind to know they had it all under control. From our first call with Anthony, we thought it was too good to be true. And then we had our tasting, and they threw in an extra appetizer based on our favorite meal, and we couldn't believe that a caterer this great could exist. We weren't afraid to splurge on the caterer, but we didn't even have to! 10/10!

    Park Ave was our favorite vendor!!

    We cannot say enough great things about Anthony and the team at Park Avenue! From the moment we reached out, to our tasting, to making sure we got a goody bag the night of our wedding- we are so glad we chose them! We got married 4 months ago now, and people are STILL telling us it was the best food they have ever had at a wedding. We hope our other Bay Area friends will use them in the future so we get to enjoy as a guest. Truly 10/10!
