Wonderful place and we really enjoyed the quick and professional service! Special thanks to Marta, who organized everything for us in 3 days before our wedding! They sent us the draft of menu in 2 hours after our request, next day came here and check the place where we celebrated. The food was fresh and delicious, especially all of us liked fish! Bartender and waiters worked professionally and we were very satisfied not to have any headache about our wedding party. They do care about customers and provide services by the optimal price, which is also a big plus. So we do know who will we ask for the catering for any other party ew have in future!

We worked with Marta from CA Catering to plan the ceremony and reception for our wedding. Marta and her team were amazing. From little details like welcome signs when we would come to the office, to the excellent service provided at the reception, Marta and her team did an amazing job. We got married in our back yard, so she worked with us to figure out the tent placement, ceremony location, event flow and so much more. And on the day of, she made it so that my husband and I could enjoy our special day. Thank you so much Marta and team! Given a choice, we'd 120% go back to CA Catering. Thank you!

We are very appreciative of the continued support and partnership with CA Catering and look forward to working with them again and again!
