The Best Wedding Caterers in San Diego, CA

“No one ever tells you just how stressful and complex planning your wedding can be. My Wife and I quickly found this out earlier in the year as we prepared for our special day. Fortunately for us we had Abbey Catering and Events in our corner! From the moment that we hit the ground running, Abbey Catering was with us every step of the way. From our first fantastic contact with Will, to locking in our awesome DJ Abel, to Megan and Chuck doing just a stellar job planning and coordinating the entire event A-Z, our Gorgeous wedding day was nothing short of phenomenal. Not only were we blown away by the clear and helpful communication, but this team absolutely knows what they are doing in their industry and it shows in their kindness, Care and consideration and attention to detail! They even stepped in to save the day when our initial reception venue had complications and we had to relocate. The food was so delicious, the bar was amazing and kept the party going, and the music and event space truly blew any of our expectations out of the water. From the bottom of our hearts, we are so incredibly grateful for the team at Abby catering and would highly recommend them to any couples looking for an event company to handle such an important day. It’s no secret that there are plenty of options to choose from especially in Southern California when it comes to catering and event planning, but hands-down, Abby catering and events are the folks you should go with. 10/10 Stars! Tell them we sent you! Thank you guys !”

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.

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.

Taco Love Mobile Catering

5.0

“I hired Taco Love to cater my wedding in February and would happily look forward to hiring them again for any future event. Consider this a glowing review, and a recommendation to hire them for your events! Guests are still raving about how great the food was ... in fact, many of them were so taken by how yummy and hearty the appetizers were that they didn't even realize a dinner course was still to come! The tacos as a main were served fresh and delicious with all of the toppings. After being super disappointed with the attitude and racist comments from a *different* caterer that had been highly recommended to us, we found Randy and Taco Love and it was a perfect fit! From the first phone call, we knew we were finally on the right track for our event. He was always kind, very laid-back (something that vibed really well with my personality, but something to note if you want things super formal and in writing right away. This is the only reason for the 4/5 stars for communication.), and very accommodating to the unique needs and vision of our event and venue space. He would always tell us "it is your wedding ... you let me know what you want and we will make it happen!" We used some of his serving dishes, and some of our own. At our tasting, he made sure we had some of each thing on his menu and it all tasted so great! The meat and veggie options were very delicious, and the salsas were incredibly flavorful. I especially appreciate the thought and delicious flavors that went into the veggie options. There were two to choose from, and both were creative and delicious. From there, the process was very smooth. There was no limit on the menu, he allowed us to choose from everything they make on the truck. The price was reasonable, and he even ended up covering our dessert bar as well! Our guests LOVED the churros and ice cream. He was right on time for our wedding, and from what we could tell everything ran so smoothly! We had plenty of food for our guest count of 130. My only regret, is that as the bride and groom we were so chaotic that day we didn't get to eat as much as we wanted to! We are already planning a time to catch his truck when we are back in town so we make up for that! Thank you, Randy! We look forward to eating your food again hopefully soon!”

Flame and Flavor

5.0

“Flame and Flavor provided top-notch catering for our wedding. Their communication throughout the planning process was very easy and smooth, which helped make everything run seamlessly. They went above and beyond to ensure every detail was perfect, from the delicious food to the impeccable service. The chicken was extremely tender, and the beef was also perfectly cooked. Everything was thoughtfully seasoned and tasted incredible. We received so many compliments from our guests on the quality of the catering. Flame and Flavor truly contributed to making our special day unforgettable.”

Hi, I'm Emma! Growing up in a household of amazing Mediterranean and Middle Eastern cuisine cooks, I fell in love with the flavors and traditions. But dining out often left me disappointed by the lack of authenticity and quality. As a pastry chef, my passion for good food only grew stronger. I started Flame & Flavor to share my vision, using fresh ingredients, no seed oils and premium meats to craft delicious dishes that bring people together. Our food is made with love, and it shows.

Curiocity Catering

“I have hired Jason to cater 2 events. My parents 80th birthday last October 2024 and my daughters baby shower November 2025. Both events were a huge success. Our guests loved his food. In fact I loved several of his items so much we asked him to duplicate those for my daughter's shower. Having a caterer bring their own kitchen to the event is not only convenient. It saves you having staff in your home or space which makes your party even more intimate. Jason's catering truck by the way is a fun installment to your party :))) People are very impressed by it! HireJason and his team your party will be a huge success and you will not regret it. The food is delicious and on point I don't even live in California anymore, but when I throw a party, it will be him that I call..”

“Our event was small and intimate. There was only a handful of us but Praveen made us feel like we were the only ones there. The drink menu was so mouthwatering it was hard to choose - so we didn’t! We had seen Praveen’s mixology skills previously so we just asked him to make something custom for us - and he nailed it! Be as adventurous as you like - or keep it simple! No matter what, the service, the quality of drinks and the overall wonderful conversation makes Praveen the best way to spend an evening over drinks and laughs.”

Personal Touch Dining

5.0

“Samantha Contreras and her team did an amazing job from start to finish. Our November wedding was perfect at Scripps Seaside Forum. We chose PTD because of the reasonable quotes and the fact we could trust them with all rentals. That was the best decision we made! Samantha handled everything from flatware to drapery. For around 100 people we ended up spending a little under 17k for rentals, tray passed appetizers, full buffet, and churros. It did absolutely feel like a white glove experience which justified spending that much. Especially in an industry where you can spend that much on much more underwhelming service. Our wedding day ran smoothly despite the downpour of rain. We loved that they knew the venue and worked seamlessly with our day of coordinator. The food was amazing we cannot stop getting compliments on the red wine demi glace short-ribs that were actually better than they were in tasting. We had a perfect amount of food. Thank you to Samantha and her team!”
