We were so pleased with the catering services provided by Crisp Catering for our vow renewal for our 10th anniversary. From the very first phone call, their team maintained frequent and detailed communication, ensuring we felt informed and supported throughout the planning process. On the day of the event, the Crisp staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, going above and beyond to cater to our guests. The food was warm, delicious, and reasonably priced.

      Kanteen was founded by Chef Dinesh & Vishwas — two food lovers whose journey began in the most unexpected place: a badminton court. During the Covid years, Chef Dinesh created a unique 5- course Friday night menu for home delivery. Around the same time, I (Vishwas) was finishing his MBA at Wharton. The menu’s bold flavors and creativity struck a chord so deeply that I dropped my plan to move into finance and instead followed my passion. With our shared love for food, we started Kanteen. What began as a simple idea has grown into one of the Bay Area’s most trusted catering teams, delivering elevated, heartfelt experiences for large events.

      Our guests were blown away by the quality of catering provided by Kanteen at our reception! Chef Dinesh and his team are clearly very skilled at producing delicious food with great presentation. Vishwas’s business is growing and in very high demand, so you may need to be a little patient with them, but they really came through in the end. Highly recommend Kanteen!

          WOW! The food was absolutely delicious, the Black Cherry Brisket was my favorite, and the soft pretzel bar was everything! Not only was all the food incredible, the communication and dedication their team had to making our big day special was amazing. So attentive both day of and in the planning process, I had such a specific vision for tableware and they delivered above and beyond! I highly recommend their services to anyone in the Chicagoland area!

          My daughter (the bride) explained how she wanted the buffet set up, Kayla understood exactly what she meant and made it happen with an "action station"! The buffet show was just as good as the food! I asked if the bartenders could drop a "drink topper" into the drinks, no problem. I asked if Hoffman House could provide desserts, no problem! I asked if we could change one of the wines at the last minute, no problem! Everything we requested was met with a positive attitude and I never felt like I was asking too much. The whole night was just fabulous!

            About wedding caterers

            How much does wedding catering cost?

            When thinking about catering cost, consider drinks, hors d'oeuvres and stations, and the main meal itself. Bar services are quoted per person and pricing often depends on what alcohol you want (more expensive packages include pricier labels). Hors d'oeuvres and stations are also priced per person, with variable costs for more expensive options like lobster rolls. For the main meal, consider what you’d spend per head going out to a restaurant in your area—the cost per person at your wedding will be similar. Keep in mind that plated meals cost more per person than buffets.

            When should we book our wedding caterer?

            Choosing a wedding caterer is an important decision for many couples—good food can really make an event stellar! It’s best to start researching caterers 10–12 months out, and book around 8 months out. You may not always be able to schedule a tasting before booking your caterer. For many smaller vendors, the effort and expense to put together tastings without a signed contract is prohibitive. In these cases, your tasting will take place after you’ve booked the caterer and will focus on refining menu choices.
