Brisket
•Verified review
•Dee H.•Sep 25
Pura Vida Catering exceeded all our expectations for our wedding day. The brisket they served was absolutely delicious - the meat was so tender and packed with flavor. Our guests raved about the high quality of the food, and many said it was the best catered meal they had ever had at a wedding. The Pura Vida team was also incredibly professional and attentive throughout the entire event, ensuring everything ran smoothly. We were thrilled with the exceptional service and value they provided, and would highly recommend them to any couple planning their wedding.
Amazing food and service

Xoshil and her team were AMAZING! Before the wedding, she was super communicative, and I knew we were on the same page before the event started. During the event, she and her team stepped in to assist with rapidly filling waters (on what was, I swear, the hottest day of the year - a guest or two may have gone down because of the heat). As a planner, it is not uncommon for me to grab a vendor plate and eat 3 bites because I'm running around on behalf of the couple and making sure everything's on time/everyone's where they need to be. Xoshil tracked me down more than once to either make sure I had a plan for dinner and once I finally sat down to eat, she made sure I had enough. It was a super kind gesture that did not go unnoticed. I CAN NOT WAIT to work with Pura Vida again!

Xoshil is an amazing chef and a true leader. She was so kind and easy to work from booking to wedding day. Her team was always responsive, kind, and supportive. Every dish Xoshil makes was made with heart and soul. She will work with you to make your day as perfect and stress free as possible.
