Tasty food and amazing service
We LOVE Popolo! The food is amazing and the service was outstanding. From the moment we booked, the staff at Popolo has been attentive, detail oriented, and so kind. I love how easy it was to get a quote started online. We were also able to rent all of our linens, flatware, plates, and glassware through Popolo! Monica was so helpful with finalizing all of the last minute wedding details! The day-of food service went off without a hitch and I receive rave reviews from our guests. I still dream about the mashed potatoes and tri tip! I highly recommend Popolo catering for your next wedding or special event.

Outstanding Food and Service
We are extremely satisfied with the delicious food and amazing service from the Popolo Catering owners and staff as they showcased their talent at our daughter's wedding. From our initial encounter at a wedding fair and on through the tasting, planning, and finally the wedding itself, the service was highly professional and very personal. The family style table service was by far the best way to get hot, tasty food to over 130 guests quickly and efficiently. Throughout the reception we heard compliments about the great food that was served. We were thrilled that they were an integral part of making my daughter's dream wedding a reality!

The perfect family-style caterer, professional, flexible, and smart!
Aloha did a stunning job on my wedding dress alteration, I have literally never had clothes fit better than that dress when they were done with it! They are often extremely busy (because they do such good work!), but as long as you are patient and polite, they'll take amazing care of you. I'm incredibly impressed. Wish I could rate them higher!!

A perfect wedding in Harmony
Everything was perfect. Their whole crew was awesome from the moment we booked them. They were supportive and kept in contact then entire way to ensure that we had everything we needed. The day of our wedding went so smoothly and they created such a personal feeling that it was better than what we could have ever asked.

Delicious Food & Service
We loved having Popolo cater our wedding. The food was exactly what we wanted - DELICIOUS! Our guests were raving about the tri-tip and the mashed potatoes. Working with their team was a breeze. They made it very easy and stress free to make adjustments and changes as the deadline approached. The pricing was also very reasonable. Would definitely recommend them for a wedding or any other event!

Best caterer
I was blown away by the professionalism and level of service I received for my wedding from Popolo Catering. From the tasting to the wedding day, we were in constant communication. Popolo staff was lovely and very accommodating. We had plated dinner service and served prime rib and salmon, which were both outstanding!

Popolo catered a fabulous family dinner for us after our reception. They were very accomodating, gracious, efficient and friendly. The catering office was very responsive and easy to work with. The servers were wonderful and the food (tri-tip and salmon with all the fixings) was top-notch. Everyone enjoyed it SO much! Thank you, Popolo!!!!

Amazing Food and Service!
Kat and Leon from Popolo Catering were such great vendors to work with. Their company catered both our rehearsal dinner and our wedding night. Everything that we ate was cooked to perfection, and our guests kept commenting about how flavorful their tri-tip and chicken was. I loved using the "quote maker" on their website to get an idea of my ideal menu, and the fact that they had a huge menu to choose from! They are affordable, friendly, and serve delicious food! Thank you Kat and Leon for a wonderful wedding weekend!

Monica was the best to work with. From the day my wife and I walked in she took great care of us. She was very accommodating and went above and beyond to make our catering experience perfect. From the setting up of the menu to the folding of the napkins. If we had to do it again, Popolo would be the choice. Also Aaron and the staff were great to work with, Professional and very thorough. If you need a Caterer you can count on, Call Monica at Popolo :)

Hello Joe! We absolutely enjoyed working with you and are ecstatic that you had such a wonderful experience with us! Thank you for taking the time to write such a lovely review. We wish you and yours the very best and appreciate you for choosing Popolo Catering!Taylor · Married on 06/16/2018
First off I have to say Kat & Leon are amazing people! And there food was phenomenal! When we met them for our tasting, we loved their energy & passion and we knew we had found our caterer. For our dinner menu we chose roasted chicken, tri tip with salsa, garlic mashed potatoes, sautéed veggies, tossed green salad with rosemary balsamic, and focaccia bread. Our guests absolutely loved the food and went back for seconds. We also had tray passed appetizers: bruschetta & sausage stuffed mushrooms. We can’t thank our day of team enough for having everything run smoothly. We coordinated with Popolo for a bartender, beverage station, & dinnerware/flatware/drinkware. We had our rehearsal dinner catered by them too. We had a taco bar and it was perfect for our casual, backyard dinner & drinks. You can’t go wrong with Popolo catering your wedding. They are professional, affordable, quality, & a real family operation. I highly recommended all brides and grooms having full confidence hiring Popolo to cater your first meal as husband and wife!

Popolo was by far the easiest vendor to work with during wedding planning. As soon as we met with Kat and Leon, we instantly knew that they would be a perfect fit for our catering, rental, and bartending needs. They, along with the whole staff, were such a joy to work with, responded quickly, ALWAYS updated our contract each time something had changed, and made us feel like family! Most importantly, the food was amazing! Our guests could not stop talking about how much they enjoyed the meal. I would recommend Popolo over and over again and we are so happy that we chose them for our special day!

I started planning a California wedding before moving to Texas. It was extremely important that we have responsive vendors and a team that was able to provide a variety of services to limit the amount of vendors we had. Popolo's was perfect! We were able to get almost all our needs met, with affordability. Best of all, we got tons of compliments on the food. I was quite overwhelmed with all the contracts and planning, that I was confused with all that Popolo's was providing. Thank goodness the team was super helpful and accommodating!

Popolo was the perfect match for us. Kat, Leon, and Monica were so warm and welcoming when we came out for a tasting. They were incredibly thoughtful and were such great listeners when we brainstormed for the menu. Our potato taquitos and our bacon wrapped jalapeños stuffed with dates and goat cheese were to die for! We kept shoving them in our mouths when we were waiting to be announced at our cocktail party! Everyone loved the carnitas we did for our taco bar as well. We would strongly recommend Popolo to anyone looking for a wonderful team who really deliver on deliciousness as well as customer service!

The Best Catering of the Central Coast
Popolo was absolutely AMAZING! They were so helpful and accommodating from the moment we met to the very end of our wedding night. The food was exactly what we wanted and so delicious and all of our guests to this day rave about how good it was. The staff was super friendly and the services was fantastic. Literally everything was perfect and so smooth. Popolo even remembered our wedding and the dinner when I called a year later to see if they could recreate our wedding dinner on our anniversary, which they did and it was just like we remembered. You will not be disappointed by Popolo!

Monica and Leon were amazing. They were such a blast to work with and made our day go very smoothly. The food also turned out well and they even catered our rehearsal dinner with a taco bar which was a big hit with our friends and family. I loved that they've worked at our venue before and that they knew how the day would play out. They were also great at helping us book/order anything we needed and made recommendations for anything they couldn't do. It was a pleasure working with them. I can't thank them enough.

Leon & his wife ARE AMAZING!! We loved working with them. They literally SAVED OUR WEDDING DAY! The other reviews were spot on - EXCELLENT FOOD & CUSTOMER SERVICE (which are 2 extremely important parts of any party / wedding). Leon & his staff are such sweet hearts & they all know the ins and outs of all wedding preparation.

Communication was a breeze and they always responded promptly. When I had some major problems with my venue (Pear Valley Vineyard in Paso Robles), Leon and his team stepped up to the plate and went out of their way to make sure everything still went according to plan. They went ABOVE AND BEYOND anything I could have ever dreamed of having in a catering staff. They are both PROFESSIONAL, KIND, CONSIDERATE, AFFORDABLE & TALENTED! Look no further, BOOK THEM NOW!! There isn't a better team or better value out there (WITH RENTALS, STAFF, FOOD W/PASSED APPS ETC = $30-35 PP (CRAZY GOOD FOR EVERYTHING YOU GET PLUS A+++++ SERVICE!!)

Dear Marlina,Jessica · Married on 09/02/2017
Popolo Catering was amazing at our wedding this past month. Abigail and Leon were very helpful during the planning process; from handling all of my revisions immediately to offering helpful suggestions and experience knowledge. Our day-of team was a dream and made sure we were happy at any given moment. We had the tri tip with salsa and chicken and it was seriously the best tri tip and chicken I've ever had. I haven't stopped thinking about it ever since we even had our initial tasting. Our guests made it a point to compliment how awesome they thought the food was. We had Popolo pretty much handle the most we could, from all the rentals, bar service, toast service, and desserts. They offer so many services and options; I'd recommend taking advantage of that. Popolo also catered our brunch the morning after the wedding and the food was phenomenal.
