Hazy Barbecue 

5.0

  • Starts at $300
  • Serves San Rafael, CA

Hazy Barbecue is a catering company based in Danville, California. They specialize in Texas-style barbecue and American fare with dishes featuring brisket, ribs and salmon to salads. With a central location in the Bay Area, they serve events around San Francisco, from Napa to San Jose. Hazy Barbecue catering team welcomes couples to taste dishes to create a custom menu. On the day of the wedding, your dishes can be picked up, delivered, or served with the full catering package. This service is ideal for large events, and wait staff will be on-site throughout the meal to set up, serve, and clean up. Individually boxed meals available!

Hazy Barbecue was amazing at our daughter's wedding – the food was delicious, incredibly affordable and generously portioned. My daughter and now son-in-law love BBQ, however, there are not a lot of great options in the SF Bay Area. I personally visited and tasted food from 13 established restaurants and caterers and luckly, Hazy opened up in Danville, our town, just in time. The theme of the wedding was not country or western, we just wanted food that we love and something we knew would satisfy our guests--and Hazy came through. Tami and her team were very easy to work with, before and during the event, always very responsive and gave close attention to small details. As with any caterer, be sure to outline all of your needs, ask questions about everything from staffing, set-up and break-down so that you have your expectations met, like we did. We were their first off-premise catered event, fully staffed, so our 4-star rating on service and clarity of communication is only because they obviously had room for growth since this was their first event after launching the catering side of their business. Our friends and family truly enjoyed the food and raved about the brisket, pulled pork and the side dishes. Highly recommend you consider Hazy for your special event. I'll visit their restaurant every time I am back in town! The food was 5-star!

Awarded Best of Zola
From the moment we first contacted Chef John's Events & Catering, we were impressed by their prompt, complete and detailed communication style. They always offered helpful suggestions to ensure our wedding day was perfect. The quality and quantity of the food they provided was superior, and the value far exceeded the price. Chef Jeannette and her team were a pleasure to work with, as they accommodated guests with severe allergies and dietary requirements, ensuring a safe and delicious experience for everyone. Additionally, they left the kitchen area spotless after the event, despite catering the wedding at a friend's home. I had experienced Chef Jeannette's delicious food at several corporate events prior to my wedding, so I knew I wanted to use Chef John's Catering. They made the planning and preparation so much easier, and were willing to work with us on our budget and specific requests. We couldn't have been happier with their exceptional service and incredible food.

We ordered Tuck Ins to put in our wedding guest gift bags at the hotel. Tuck Ins was easy to work with, delivered in a timely manner, and all of our guests loved having something delicious and made by a local Philly company. If we were to get married again, I think we would include Tuck Ins at the dessert table and let the guests roast them at the reception. Would highly recommend!
