Wow! Andrea truly made us feel seen and taken care of. We wanted to do a tasting for our wedding and she truly went above and beyond & she explained everything with clarity and confidence. She let us try everything and had the perfect balance of attending to us and letting us enjoy the tasting and taking amongst ourselves. Andrea was very accommodating and we never felt pressured at all. The flavor of the food was amazing, but her customer service is what sealed the deal and made us say yes. We know we will be taken care of on our wedding day.

The Wild Thyme Company 

5.0

  • Starts at $1,500
  • Serves Escondido, CA

The Wild Thyme Company was founded in 2005 as a culmination of our Chief Foodie, Dawn Carvajal's, extensive culinary experience and desire to highlight the bold, intriguing, and undoubtedly delicious flavors of global cuisine. TWTC celebrates the art of flavors and beautiful ingredients coming together, and how food can create a sense of community. Most of our offerings are custom by client request. Founded on Mediterranean and Coastal California fares, our menus offer a farm-to-table feel, capturing the essence of fresh food and local provisions.

The Wild Thyme Company was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding catering. From our first interaction, their communication was clear, helpful and attentive - answering all of our questions thoroughly and putting us at ease throughout the planning process. They also pitched in ideas for additional rentals and reviewed our final rentals list to make sure we were covered. On the day of our wedding, their staff was friendly and professional, ensuring the food service went off without a hitch. The quality of their work was truly outstanding - the presentation of the dishes was beautiful, and our guests raved about how delicious and filling the meal was, from the passed hors d'oeuvres to the entrees. We were blown away by the value we received, as the food was worth every penny. Of course, there were some unplanned moments and guests, all of which were quickly and professionally taken care of by TWTC whether it be an additional plate or serving. The tasting we did prior to the big day was also such a memorable experience, with the chef and event coordinator going above and beyond to make us feel special. We couldn't have asked for a better catering experience, and we're so grateful to The Wild Thyme Company for helping make our wedding day so perfect.

We had Del's Hideout cater our wedding and they provided us with an amazing experience. Everything was delicious and the service was top notch. They worked with us on the menu to acommodate some special requests. Despite being a BBQ restaurant that focuses on meat (which was amazing), our vegan guests also raved about their food, and said it was the best vegan food they ever had at a wedding. The team took care of all of our guests and we received nothing but good feedback from everyone.

Off the Vine Dining Catering Company 

5.0

  • Starts at $1,000
  • Serves Escondido, CA

Brian and Alexa met in 2016 when he was pursuing his dream operating a café in North Park. This venture was called Grinds & Vine Coffee Bar, where the community was the most important factor of his establishment. One day Alexa came in as a guest to study and have some coffee. She was quickly mesmerized by the PB&J sandwich and their delicious cold brew options. They shared some great conversations about food and life then quickly became friends, which then blossomed into something more. Who would have ever thought a PB&J, a cold brew and a conversation would turn into love and marriage.

Awarded Best of Zola
Off the Vine Dining was recommended to me by a friend and it was the best rec I have ever received. OVD catered our wedding and served us possibly the best chicken I’ve ever had in my life, along with every other food item that night. Even the dessert was delicious, every ingredient was real and homemade, even the whip cream. Every piece of food served to us was made by hand and it tasted as such. I never expect to eat a lot when I attend a catered event, let alone an event I throw because I have a sensitive stomach. But I was able to eat everything and go back for seconds. If you’re looking for kind, honest and talented people to cater any event you’re having, don’t look anywhere else but Off the Vine Dining! Take a chance in this husband and wife team and give them a call and let the rest be history!

Buckboard Catering and Events 

5.0

  • Starts at $1,000
  • Serves Escondido, CA

Established in 1986. Buckboard Catering and Events was established in May of 1986 and is one of the oldest catering companies in San Diego. The business has expanded to include a full range of farm-to-fork locally sourced food options to extensive culinary catering for any occasion or experience. A complete inventory of rental items for any size event is also available.

We could not have been happier with the service we received from Buckboard as the catering provider for our wedding. Right from the initial meeting Ashley, (Buckboard’s sales manager) gave us a personalized introduction and very friendly tasting. It was clear from this initial interaction that she cared more about our experience and less about just becoming one of their customers. The food was/is absolutely delicious. Every single item was cooked perfectly, and it was clear from the initial tasting that their chefs and cooks take genuine pride in cooking high quality meals that do not come off as “mass produced” like a number of other caterers in the area. We have lost count of the number of guests who told us during and after the meal that it was by far the best food they’ve ever had at a wedding, and this is reflective of the company as a whole. Ashley and JP (the Chief Operating Officer) were both present during the planning process, and worked with us directly to determine a menu that would be both wonderful for the guests as well as within our budget. When dietary restrictions were presented, Ashley and her team made the accommodations easy and care free, and provided options that were also delicious. She and her staff were so friendly and professional on the day-of that a number of guests went out of their way to comment on the crew. We cannot rave enough about the services we received from Buckboard Catering. To make matters better they also operate a full-time restaurant in El Cajon, which we plan on frequenting regularly when visiting San Diego. For prospective couples planning a wedding, choosing Buckboard as your caterer will not only put your mind at ease knowing the quality of service you will be receiving, but you and your guests will be absolutely thrilled with the meal you get to enjoy.

They were helpful and provided amazing food (the best Peruvian food in California and possible the entire US in my opinion). Their food has a homemade taste to it but also has an elevated feel to it. They even cooked all the food onsite in their food truck on our wedding day which made the food so fresh. They also handled setup, serving and take down. We cannot thank them enough for the incredible food and experience they created for us.

YOOSHI SUSHI CATERING & EVENT PRODUCTION

  • Starts at $2,500

I had my first shot at managing a sushi restaurant when I took over an empty section of the family restaurant and introduced sushi to my customers. It was a challenge that I will never regret accepting. It was fun, a lot of fun! I had the opportunity to work with some really talented and creative chefs. I quickly learned that it’s not just about having fresh fish anymore. Sushi dining has transformed into a culture. A culture built by imagination and creativity. With the help of GD and the support of my family, I took all that experience and fused it with my imagination and created Yooshi Sushi Catering and Event Production.
