Coastal Cuisine and Cocktail Co.

Owner

We are here to help you throw an amazing event whether it’s a business meeting, a casual gathering, holiday party, or wedding celebration. Our staff will work with you to ensure every detail is taken care of before your guests arrive. We will directly advise in all areas, ranging from food menu to bar options as well as event setup and rental needs. We can suggest popular programs and ultimately customize a plan for your vision and budget for the event.

We have experience in events ranging from a private dinner with 10 guests to a corporate event with 4,500 guests! We cater all over San Diego and also have 3 event venues downtown (Venue 808, The Lane, & Luce Loft). So if you are looking for a 1 stop shop for venue, food, and beverages, we are here for you!

Sample catered weddings

Jennifer & David enjoyed an intimate 60-guest plated dinner service with us at Luce Loft. Their menu was classic and summer-inspired, commencing cocktail hour with passed hors d'oeuvres of our ahi poke, coconut shrimp, teriyaki skewers, and elote summer rolls (pictured). Their plated dinner service began with a burrata salad course and ended with our dulce de leche flan coated in raspberry coulis. The chosen entree was our Americana duo- a plated duo of red wine braised short rib and rosemary thyme chicken breast with basil cream sauce over garlic mashed potatoes and roasted brussels sprouts & carrots. Total cost below includes tax and service charge.

    Amazing Catering Start to Finish

    I used Social Tap Catering for a baby shower I hosted and they did an AMAZING job. Brant was very communicative during the entire process, was extremely nice and had great ideas for our menu. He made helpful suggestions while also being flexible and accommodating with our special requests. The food was delicious, and the service was impeccable! They handled it all flawlessly and I can't thank them enough for making sure the shower went off without a hitch.

    We hired Coastal Cuisine & Cocktail Co. for our Khaki Ball, and the experience was incredible from start to finish! The food was delicious, fresh, and presented beautifully. The staff was professional, punctual, and attentive, making sure every detail ran smoothly without us having to worry about a thing. Communication leading up to the event with Gina was fast and helpful. She worked with us step by step through the whole process and worked within our budget. We couldn’t have asked for a better team and highly recommend them for any event!

    My husband and I got married at Venue 808, and we truly could not have asked for a more beautiful place to celebrate our wedding. The venue itself is absolutely stunning. It gave us the modern, intimate, and elevated atmosphere we were looking for, and everything came together beautifully. The space photographed incredibly well, our guests loved it, and seeing our entire wedding vision come to life there was such a special moment for both of us. What stood out most was how memorable the space felt. From the moment we walked in on our wedding day, it felt like the perfect setting for such an important chapter in our lives. Being surrounded by our family and friends in such a beautiful venue made the day feel even more special. Our guests had an amazing time, the atmosphere was incredible, and we left with memories we will cherish forever. Venue 808 will always hold a special place in our hearts because it is where my husband and I officially began this next chapter together. We are so grateful we chose Venue 808 for our wedding and would absolutely recommend it to couples looking for a beautiful and memorable place to celebrate their special day. Five stars from us!
