Wonderful service by David for my small wedding in Balboa Park. He was absolutely awesome to work with. He helped me arrange so much of my reception and at a great price. Everyone loved the food and service. He will really work with you on pricing and variety. Excellent!
Once again I hired David’s catering for my moms 70th!! I can’t recommended them enough! Their staff, food, customer service….all exquisite. I will never have another party without them!
