Park Avenue Catering

We have to thank Chaz and the PAC staff for an excellent event! We had so many compliments on the food, from the quality, the perfect portion and the service of the staff. No joke, the appetizers with the wine paring was a huge success! Every time I tried to get a potato lollipop – the dish was empty and I swore it was just brought out! I’m still getting calls about how delish the shrimp and the won tons were and people were still craving them the next day! The soup was such a clever and wonderful addition as well! The dinners were so tasty, and the quality was spot on! The filet was so tender and the chicken and ravioli – mmmm. My favorite was…well – all of it! We have to especially thank Clare! She was awesome, and my mom said to thank her as well! She paid great attention to us and really made us feel special! The staff was great, and nobody’s glass was ever empty! Now that’s a great party!

Park Avenue catered our daughter's wedding at Paradise Ridge Winery. This was not the event's original location, but when we had to move, they happily came with us. From our first meeting with Janine, to our last goodbye to Catering Captain Clare, Park Avenue's friendly and professional attention to detail is like no other. The food was delicious, our guests were well taken care of, and the bride and groom were made to feel as if they were the only bride and groom on the planet. Park Avenue did everything to make our daughter's wedding perfect!

Food was amazing, communication and professionalism was exemplary from everyone we interacted with in this company.

We used Park Avenue Catering for our recent wedding in November, and I can't say enough about their service and quality. The food was absolutely amazing, and our guests are still talking about the tri-tip, butternut squash raviolis and potatoes a month after the event. In choosing a caterer, my mom was very particular about presentation, and Park Avenue Catering did not disappoint! The buffet display was beautiful and our wedding specialist, Chaz, made sure that the decor tied into our centerpieces and the rest of the look we were aiming for. He spent the time to really understand what we wanted, and went out of his way to execute it. The service that Chaz and the rest of the staff provided was above and beyond, and it was such a pleasure to work...

This company is professional and understands the high standards of its clients. Not to mention the food is the BEST FOOD YOU WILL EVER HAVE AT A WEDDING.

Park Avenue Catering had the best wedding food ever. One of my closest friends who works at a huge food magazine said so herself! Janine was great to work with and the service was absolutely excellent. The bartenders were very liberal in the pours of our signature drinks too! I highly recommend them to anyone getting married in Sonoma!

Park Avenue Catering was an absolute joy to work with while planning our wedding. Janine was the epitome of professional yet personable. She, along with her fantastic team, made sure we were 100% pleased with our food choices and presentation. Everything from the appetizers to linens to main courses were planned with precision and the food was delicious! Our guests are still raving about how much they enjoyed the cuisine. On the day of our wedding, the crew arrived and set up the venue with absolute ease. The captain of the crew catered to every need of both my husband and I. She helped us get our food, made sure we always had water and beverage of choice, and that we were blissfully happy! The crew was wonderful to my parents and in-laws, and cared for our accessories at tables and set up around the venue. Thanks Park Avenue!

We had your wedding at Mark West Lodge and Park Avenue is part of the package though them, if you chose to do the package. We HIGHLY recommend going with the package with all the venues that are included, well worth the money. Anyways Park Avenue was amazing....and we did not have to do a thing the day of our wedding. The captain (Clair) that is in charge of Park Avenue's staff the day of the event was there for anything we needed. The food is to die for and all the staff that we worked with from beginning to end are so nice. Park Avenue is one of the top carter's in Sonoma County and now that we have done business with them know way.

Janine did a great job with our wedding! We recently got married at the Mark West Lodge with 130 guests. Our catering went off without a hitch! We first met with Janine several months prior. She was very professional and polite, and returned our calls quickly. When we met for our tasting, there was a mixup with our foods, and some of the things we had wanted to try weren't available. Janine took full responsibility, and did a great job of covering for the mistake. We ended up tasting almost everything we had wanted to, and left feeling fully confident for our wedding. The food was delicious, and Janine was very thorough in going over all possible options and choices. We felt well taken care of, and I got the impression that Janine was a true professional. The actual wedding was perfect. They did everything just as they said they would. The food was DELICIOUS. My mother has a few dietary restrictions that we had mentioned to Janine, and they were all over it! Her food was cooked exactly as needed, with no issues at all. The presentation and service was perfect. We got multiple compliments from our guests on how good the food was, and we had a lot of foodies there! I really couldn't be too much happier with Janine and Park Avenue. The food was fantastic, they did everything they promised, had a wonderful attitude, and I just felt taken care of in general. Excellent work!

Well we also worked with Chaz on our wedding and it was amazing!!! From the start with the menu planning process he was charming, helpful and knowledgeable. He helped us create a beautiful custom menu for our special day. In our tasting we were able to taste several food selections and Chaz even arranged for us to taste items that were not on our menu while we were there. This was important to us because we planned everything long distance and were only able to be in the area briefly. He helped us select our beautiful linens and colors so everything looked stunningly perfect. The food and service at the wedding were top notch! We got so many compliments about the food from our guests and with food taste and quality being so important to us we could not be more thrilled! You could not be in better hands Park Avenue Catering.

I recently had my wedding at a vineyard in Sonoma and Park Avenue catered the event. Planning a destination wedding is hard and the people at Park Avenue went above and beyond in the responsiveness category. Chaz was amazing! The food was delicious and so so pretty. I will use them again without hesitation if we ever have an event in that area again! Amazed and so happy!

Janine was our contact at Park Avenue Catering and she was just magnificent! We could not have wished for a better person to work with on this. Since our whole wedding was planned remotely after we selected the venue in person, it was really important to me to receive responses to my questions right away and to work with someone who would take initiative to get competitive quotes from other vendors (i.e. lighting, rentals, etc.). One of the most challenging tasks was choosing the menu without being able to have a proper tasting since we could not make a separate trip to Sonoma Valley for this. So Janine guided us in making food and desert selections. All in all, I think giving Park Avenue Catering (and especially Janine) 5 out of 5 stars is definitely a fair evaluation.

Park avenue catered my daughter's wedding at Nicholson Ranch in Sonoma, ca. They did an outstanding job and were easy to work with. The menu we choose was delicious and the service was outstanding from start to finish. We got many compliments on the wonderful dessert bar and other food items. They were flexible, professional and Chaz was great to work with. I would highly recommend them to anyone. They made the wedding easy for the bride and her parents and fun for everyone.

We got married this October in the Sonoma area and had Park Avenue as our caterer. From the beginning meeting to the tasting to the actual event, they were nothing but helpful and amazing. All the guests told us afterward that our caterer was really good and they really enjoyed the food. They were attentive throughout the night and made sure all the guests and especially us (bride & groom) were ok. I couldn't be more pleased with our decision to go with Park Avenue catering for our wedding.

Great Food! Open and Flexable to ideas, lots of variety! Yummy Food that everyone at our wedding loved. My Maid of Honor said it was the best wedding food she had ever had. Could improve on the take home basket they give to the Bride and Groom at the end of the night. Its a nice thought, we just thought based off the description that we would be receiving at least one full meal. But what was there was yummy!

Comfort me with some Park Avenue Catering! I was so pleased with the food and service by Park Avenue for our October 2010 wedding. The food was fabulous and we received many compliments during and after the festivities. I worked closely with Janine and she was amazing. She was extremely helpful, accommodating and pleasant to work with leading up to the event. The staff took good care of our guests and paid special attention to my husband and I throughout dinner. While I read and heard outstanding reviews about this company prior to my wedding - I must admit that both the food and service exceeded my expectations! Everyone told me I wouldn't have time to eat - well, as I heard so many delights about their food - of course I was definitely looking forward to eating. The service, and food presentation was elegant and classy. The food was spectacular...and yes, I ate my entire, full plate!! I highly, highly recommend Park Avenue Catering for any special occasion in the Sonoma/Napa area!

If you are still looking for a caterer for your wedding, look no more. Janine in Event Planning was wonderful to work with from day one. The planning went smoothly and the event itself was perfect. The food was spectacular and the wait staff great. There was nothing more I could have asked for. THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!! Arlene B.

Simply FABULOUS! They catered the rehearsal picnic at Creek Side (across the street from Mark West Lodge and Gardens) as well as the wedding at MWL. The picnic was creative and fun. And the wedding menu was outstanding!

Park Avenue Catering was absolutely amazing. The planning was simple, the staff was professional and organized. Everyone who attended our wedding continues to comment on how delicious our food was. The organization was simple and took a lot of pressure off of us. We highly recommend them!

We found Park Avenue Catering to be wonderful!!! From the beginning, Janine was so helpful with the tasting, planning and all of the details that made our daughter's wedding so very memorable! The Chef who was onsite was friendly, London and his staff including servers and bartenders were incredible, the table linens were beautiful - every detail was just perfect, right down to London supplying some holders for table number/photos of the engaged couple! And then we get to the food - it was so delicious!! We can recommend their pork with apples (a perfect fall dish), their salmon with the mango salsa and the green beans and potatoes were enjoyed by all. We so enjoyed the "leftovers" and the bride and groom loved the take away basket including those yummy brownies!!! The food for the buffet was displayed beautifully and the appetizer table was bountiful with cheeses, dried fruits, breads and crackers, etc. We give Park Avenue Catering high, high marks for a beautiful presentation, great staff and tasty eats!! Thank you so much to Janine, London and all who helped at the wedding!! Gail (Mother of the Bride)
