Continental Catering

It was the diverse menu options that impressed us the most about Continental Catering when we were searching for catering vendors. We immediately booked a tasting and were even more sold by the professionalism, intentionality, and care from the staff. Christie was an absolute joy to work with! Even though we had no idea how things would evolve planning a wedding amidst the pandemic, she made sure to keep us updated with rules and regulations and also helped ease our anxiety around the situation. The care and attention that was put into the tasting experience was phenomenal! The food was delicious during the tasting and even more so on the day of! It’s been three months since our wedding and our guests are still raving about our food, saying that it was the best wedding food they have ever tasted. So much so that there was not even enough left over to take home! We opted for the Italian Riviera and Christie and Chef offered to alter one of our appetizer options in order to make sure everything we offered to our guests was Italian themed which we so appreciated! We also served gelato and our guests loved having a refreshing and delicious dessert to indulge in during the hot August San Diego summer. So much care and attention was placed on our special day from the entire team and we could not be any more grateful that we crossed paths. Thank you so much!!

Continental is amazing! Their food is delicious, and they were able to incorporate Chinese, Australian, and Californian dishes into the menu in a way that was both authentic and had a bit of a twist. For the one item they didn't quite nail the first time, they went out of their way to find a baker in San Diego who could make Australian desserts. They're super easy to work with, and matched the food stations to our decor perfectly. We'd absolutely use them again if we ever have another big event.

I cant say enough about Continental Catering. We planned a 30-40 person wedding in our backyard. Many folks came a long way, and we wanted to make sure they were well cared for. Continental was a great partner in this event. Everything about our interaction was pleasant and productive. Christie went above and beyond in preparing us and guiding us, and arranging a tasting for us. They came and set up their kitchen on site, and everything went exactly as planned. We received many compliments on the food and catering experience.

Our dream wedding food & drinks! To be honest, the food was not something cared about, or had at the top of my list. But I'm so glad that our wedding planner recommended Continental, because I now realize how important the food really is. When we went for the tasting (they were our first appointment), we were blown away by the food, and also the amazing service. Even the chef came out to speak to us and created some custom things for us. After this tasting we booked them, and cancelled other tastings. On our wedding day, they set up the tables beautifully, and again, the food was fantastic. Our guests also raved about the food and the great service from their staff! Cannot thank them enough!!

We had worked with Mike from Continental to provide labor, some rentals, and service at our wedding. We got married at a venue that required a main caterer off of their preferred vendor list, however, we wanted Indian food so we had to hire two separate caterers – Jalsa for the food and Continental for the set up/break down and service. As such, this review reflects no commentary on food preparation as we did not use them in this capacity. Working with Mike was a DREAM. He was so fun and amazing to talk to and extremely patient. We wanted to supplement our apps with a cheese tasting and wine tasting table. He worked with us to select three cheeses and presented them beautifully at the event. This added element brought our winery wedding to life as guests were able to sample wine and cheese during the cocktail hour. While we were not present for set up/ break down, as far as I could tell, all went well with the help of both Mike and my planner. I didn’t notice a single item out of place and the décor looked exactly as I had envisioned. Furthermore, since he had worked in tandem with Jalsa before, he knew exactly what items they wouldn’t bring and was able to make sure that he had all needed inventory on site for a smooth operation. What blew me away about Mike was his attention to us, the couple. After our ceremony, he was magically waiting for us at the exit with one of each appetizer and our welcome drinks. He waited with us while we had a chance to taste our apps (and get some much needed food in our belly) and breathe for a minute before meeting our guests at the cocktail hour. At the cocktail hour, Mike made a point to find me with all three cheeses from the tasting to make sure I got a chance to try them after all the back and forth on cheese selection! At dinner, he led us to our table through a sea of guests to ensure we got our food and were seated without being derailed. He even knew exactly how to place my dress so it presented beautifully while I was seated. I cannot give enough praises for this magical Mike! He not only orchestrated our day beautifully but was somehow always present when we could use a hand (and made sure we did not have an empty glass at any point!). If I could give Continental 6 stars, I would. We are so glad we selected them (despite never having met them until the wedding day) on our planner’s recommendation (the fabulous Denise of Denise Lillie Engagements). Judging by the other reviews, they don’t disappoint on the food front either  Please give them a shot when you look for someone trustworthy to pull of your big day.

We had a great experience with Continental! We received so many compliments from our guests about how amazing our food was. They also brought greenery and gold vases for the buffet table. The presentation of the appetizers was also beautiful! They also helped us to move our chairs from the outdoor terrace to inside the reception room. They really went above and beyond for our wedding! We appreciate Christi and all the work she did!

Christie was absolutely amazing during our wedding planning process. She was professional and personable. Every time we spoke with her it was like speaking with a close friend. She understood our vision and worked with us to make our wedding everything we wanted and more, while being mindful of our budget of course. The day of our wedding (02/16/19), Christie and her team were on top of everything and went above and beyond their respective role. The presentation of the food and dessert was gorgeous and was equally delicious. We received raving reviews from family and friends about how yummy the food and desserts were. Continental Catering is by far a company you can trust and want for your catering needs.

Continental Catering helped make our wedding a complete dream. My husband and I married at the El Cortez this past weekend (10/6/18) and we couldn't be happier with the food service we received from Christie and her team. Our venue coordinator recommended Continental from the start and we are so grateful she did! First off - the tastings with Christie in the beginning were so fun. Her & her team are so accommodating, we made 2 trips to their facility and decided on a menu with ease (the chicken & grits and boozy donut holes are DYNAMITE!). They executed the day-of food service flawlessly. We received so many compliments from our 190 guests, they absolutely LOVED the food & service. Continental helped us breeze through our wedding with no stress. THANK YOU Continental Team! We 105% recommend this company to anyone seeking an affordable, responsive, extremely experienced catering company!

Everyone at Continental Catering was wonderful to work with. Denise is awesome. The food was incredible at our wedding! Our guests raved about it as well as compliment the staff saying they were all very friendly.

We had the pleasure of working with Christie from Continental catering for our wedding this summer. I planned our wedding from out of state and Christie always made sure to accommodate a meeting with us while I was in town. We had multiple tastings at her suggestion to ensure we got the menu just right. She had helpful suggestions throughout the process and worked within our budget. We got so many compliments on the food in the weeks after our wedding. Christie and her team truly made our wedding come to life and we could not recommend Continental more highly!

We are so happy with the service from Christie and Continental Catering on our 5/19/18 wedding! Christie was so responsive via email and never failed to address a concern or answer a question. Their tastings are complimentary and we went twice per their recommendation that we should have the chance to sample and choose the best food for our wedding. They were receptive to our comments and made the changes we wanted to our menu. Their portions are HUGE and our guests definitely left full and with to-go boxes! Their food was truly delicious and our guests loved it. Thank you Christie and Continental for your amazing service!

My wife , Elizabeth, and I love Indian food so much that we try to find local Indian restaurants in every city, even when we travel to Europe. It is definitely our favorite. So when the time came to pick out the food for our wedding reception the decision was already made. It simply had to be Indian. Well we thought it would be simple, but most hotels, event spaces and caterers simply did not offer Indian food, or lacked confidence in their ability to do so. That was until we went into The Don Room, at the El Cortez in Downtown San Diego, and were shown a sample menu from Continental Catering. Wow! Not only were they able to make Indian food without excuses, they had already prepared a menu for us with some of their most popular dishes. So we booked The Don Room, and and then set up an appointment for a tasting with Continental Catering. When we showed up for our tasting we were greeted by our enthusiastic host, Yolanda Meza. She had been very helpful and eager to work with us since the first phone call. We were then overwhelmed to find out that they had not only provided everything on our list to taste, but they were giving us full portions of each dish as opposed to just small samples. We wondered if we should call in some friends to help! All the food was great, and everything was explained in full detail. The chef came out and listened to our suggestions for some other dishes and some very obsessive spice changes. He was extremely gracious and said he would have no problem giving us our perfect customized menu. The food and service at our wedding was amazing. Everyone loved it so much. And we were amazed at how the Continental Catering staff not only took great care of us but made sure our guests were happy. It appeared to be a very well-run and smooth operation. My wife and I cannot more highly recommend Continental Catering. Take it from a Baby Sitar playing Wizard, they are magic! Greg Vaughan Liz And The Wiz

I have been to many weddings and have always found the food pretty underwhelming. So when it came to planning my own wedding I didn't have high expectations. I contacted all five catering companies on the preferred vendors list provided by my reception venue and Christie from Continental Catering was the only one that actually called and asked us about ourselves, our favorite cuisines, and vision for the wedding. She then created a menu just for us... one that perfectly captured our tastes. When we did the tasting, the food was incredible and we were excited for the wedding, but still didn't expect the food to be as good when cooked in mass quantity. Needless to say (from our rating), the food was AMAZING on the big day. Every single guest I talked too that evening brought up the food, saying that they'd never had such delicious wedding food. Days later and we're still eating the leftovers and loving them. Beyond the food, Christie at Continental Catering made the planning process feel stress free and the staff that worked our event were fantastic and made everyone feel completely taken care of. I cannot say enough wonderful things about CC and would use them again in an instant if I ever needed catering!

Wonderful!

Continental Catering (especially Yolanda Meza) did a fantastic job catering our 122 person wedding at the Martin Johnson House. Everyone at our wedding raved about the food, including the cheese table, pineapple-coconut shrimp appetizer, seared ahi appetizer, ginger soy glazed salmon, shortribs, garlic mashed potatoes, and balsamic grilled veggies! We decided to do a duet with half a portion of salmon and half a portion of shortribs, to avoid having to ask people for their preference and the portions provided by Continental were huge! All of their staff is friendly and very professional. Our wedding color was rose gold and Yolanda went out of her way to buy a few rose gold decorations for our donut bar and the cheese table. That was very sweet of her. The only thing that we had an issue with was my parent's table was not served until later in the dinner service, which was a minor oversight, but other than that I highly recommend Continental Catering. They did an excellent job communicating with us before the wedding and making sure we were happy with every detail (think napkin colors and folds). And the day of our wedding they delivered the quality food and service that they promised! +1 - Friendly staff (Yolanda M) +1 - Delicious food (better than Buckboard or French Gourmet) +1 - Very organized and responsive to clients +1 - Willing to go above & beyond! +1 - Fairly priced

Continental Catering and Ashley Rose were so great for our Wedding Reception! They were really accommodating with our requests, and definitely wanted to make sure we had the best experience. The day of the wedding, and I'm sure many brides can relate, you barely have time to try any of the food, but Ashley made sure to grab me a plate of the amazing mushroom quesadilla and veggie rolls! It was really sweet and thoughtful. The overall presentation and delivery of the food was fantastic. Many of our guest complimented us on the food and drink at the wedding. They were also great about accommodating any dietary restrictions for our guests. They made specialty cocktails for us that were really fresh and original. The added twist to our wedding was that we planned it in five months, and Continental did not bat an eye at the fact that we were on a tighter schedule than most. They worked with us, communicated well and delivered amazing results. We truly want to thank Ashley and her team for helping create a wonderful day for me and my husband and our guests. If you're looking for a caterer, look no further than Continental Catering.

Let's start by saying that if I could give them 10 stars I would !!! They were AMAZING!! We used Continental for our wedding reception, from the start Ashley (Sales Rep) was kind, responsive and super flexible with all our changes. During the reception many of our guest complement us for the amazing customer service from bartenders to waiters, they were all super nice. Their team set up all the tables, linen and buffet and the final result was SPECTACULAR !! The whole menu was tasty, our guest loved all the appetizers: the shrimp skewers, ahi tacos (MUST!) and the sliders were delicious; The best part was that the appetizers were ready when our guest arrived. We want to thank Ashley and Continental Team for creating a menu that had our favorite food, the excellent customer services they provided us and for their impecable set up that made our dream wedding come true! Thanks for an amazing & unforgettable night!

Christie was amazing to work with and so helpful. From our first meeting, where we just sat and talked about things we liked, she paid such close attention to detail and made these two foodie's dreams, a reality. The appetizers were creative and unique and the entrees were noteworthy. We have received so many compliments on how good the food was! She also helped us with the table settings, rentals, and linens which were spectacular. She was quick with her responses and so great to work with!

We hired Continental Catering for our rehearsal dinner, and I will say that on the day of the event, they did a great job. The food was good and everything was set up perfectly. Leading up to that, however, we did not have the best experience. I worked with Christie for most of the time, and I did not feel great about the experience. First, when I originally called to request information about their services, I was left out in the cold. It was almost like she expected me to call them with an already finished idea of exactly what I needed. I was not asked any questions about the event, only told "we're going to need a lot more information to give you a price quote", without any follow up questions. I was not guided through the process at all, and had to ask probing questions about what they needed from me in order to get the process started. Once we started choosing menus, the different packages were not explained or easily understandable. I had to request different menu combinations and then try to interpret short email replies from Christie about what our options were. We finally set up a tasting (that was more of a meal confirmation than a sampling of options, as we had to nail down our exact menu before the tasting for some reason), only for Christie to not show up, and tell us that Yolanda was now our point of contact. This was not the worst news in the world, as Yolanda seemed much more organized and responsive. She did a great job for the rest of the coordination, asking us questions about how we wanted the night to go and giving us options to choose from. The only other mix up was that the venue thought Continental was providing tables and chairs, and vice versa. Thankfully Yolanda called me a few days before the rehearsal dinner to clear this up. Although we talked about it at the tasting, Yolanda did a great job of recognizing there could be an issue and fixing it without a hitch. Overall, the food was good and set up beautifully, but we were very turned off by Christie's lack of proffesionalism and considered changing caterers along the way. I felt like I had somehow wronged her and was wondering why she was being short and ultimately transferred us, as we're not difficult clients and only wanted to have clear communication and basic service. Yolanda did a great job and our event went smoothly, but I don't think we'll be using Continental again.

We had Continental cater our wedding on March 19, 2016 at Orfila Winery. We received tons of compliments on the food from our wedding. Christie was so great to work with and really made everything so easy. She also connected us with other vendors and communicated easily with our wedding coordinator and took me out as the middleman which I greatly appreciated! Everyone loved the potatoes au gratin especially. Christie was great during the tasting. We added a 3rd entree because we also wanted fish and she did not push it at all. In fact, she thought we had enough food, so she was not after the bottom line of charging us more, but more concerned about the final result of our big day. Service did slow down toward the end of the evening and I stopped receiving wine or water at our sweetheart table and we had a hiccup/confusion about serving the cake, but other than the expected small oopsies when in events, we were overall very pleased and would absolutely recommend this caterer!

My husband and I booked Continental Catering to cater our cocktail hour and reception at the Scripps Seaside Forum last month. We were nervous booking them because we were planning the wedding from across the country and didn't have a chance to taste the food before we booked it. Catering is by far the most expensive part of a wedding, and we really cared about getting food that tasted good, as we've been to weddings where that was not the case. We did get to do a tasting after we booked over the holidays, and this put us at ease. The food was DELICIOUS. And at the wedding, they did not disappoint! Everyone loved it! We had a cheese and charcuterie station and hors d'oeuvres during the cocktail hour, a plated salad and food stations during the reception, and a late night snack of french fries. All went perfectly and tasted great. Several guests told us it was the best food they've ever had at a wedding. Yolanda and the others I worked with leading up to the wedding were also great, very responsive, and worked with me design-wise too so that the food stations and displays would match the theme of the wedding. I definitely recommend!

YUM! Everyone is still talking about the food AND the cake at our wedding! Christie and the entire staff at Continental were fun, friendly and very supportive with all of our needs. We even had them make our cake! The set up and display of the entire reception would have been so dull if it weren't for the staff jazzing things up with their beautiful linens and the lovely way they displayed our cake! Thanks a million Continental!

Continental Catering did an amazing job at our wedding in Balboa Park. We worked with Kristie E. and Yolanda M. who both were very responsive to all of our questions and requests. The food is fresh, tasty and displayed in a beautiful, creative manner. Their service was well worth the money. All our guests were raving about the food and even the immaculate cheese display! Typically all the asian weddings I've been to have had so-so food, but I was pleased that all our guests continued to rave about the food after and it truly was DELISH!

We were set up with Continental Catering through our package at the El Cortez Don Room for our wedding last October. Christie, Maria, and team were a pleasure to work with throughout the whole experience! The tasting experience was one of the best parts of the planning process, we were greeted with champagne and were able to take our time tasting the sample menu we planned and take all of the leftovers home! Come the week of and day of, Captain Arthur was the stand-in leader as Christie was unavailable to be there the day-of which we were aware of in advance. Our only issue was unfortunately with the Captain over an issue with a few of our guests and when they were served their meal courses. My Coordinator and parents assessed the situation during, so I was not aware of it until after the wedding. I worked with both Christie and Maria after the fact and they did fully refund those guests as my Dad had requested. Knowing my wonderful experience and correspondence throughout, I was confident they would fix the matter. I am unsure where the miscommunication happened with the Captain and my vendor team, as there was also a table placement issue with I worked out with the venue themselves and am unsure what ultimately happened, Christie and team pulled through and helped close everything up to ensure our entire experience was still a great one. Lastly, the food was incredible! For the affordable pricing of the package, the portions and presentation were top notch. My guests are still raving about the taste and flavor. Great vendor overall!

I got married at the El Cortez Don Room in January 2016. My Don Room POC recommended Continental and after comparing them to other caterers, they were the cheapest. Since they were the cheapest, we were a little nervous, but came in for a tasting and LOVED the food. We worked with Christie and she was phenomenal. During our tasting, there were some things we loved, some things we didn't love, and some things we liked, but wanted to customize. Christie and her team customized anything we wanted and made it such an easy process! A big plus was that the cake was included and they also included all of the table linens. They have so many linens to choose from, so they had everything we wanted. Fast-forward to the wedding day and everything was perfect (and delicious!). Since Continental works with the Don Room so frequently, they have weddings down to a science. Everyone worked together so well and the whole night went very smoothly. We got lots of compliments from guests on how good the food was! I'd highly recommend Continental!

They were very professional, making sure I had everything I wanted. I had no idea about some mishaps during the wedding because they stepped out of their role to help fix them! On top of their top notch service, their food was amazing! I still have people telling me our wedding had the best food of any wedding they have been to.

Christie and the team at Continental Catering did an amazing job at our wedding this past Sunday. The food was so delicious our guests couldn't stop talking about it! We would definitely recommend Continental Catering to anyone!

I used Continental Catering for my October 3rd wedding and the service I received was outstanding! This was a second marriage for both my husband and myself, and we were looking for a non-traditional, casual dining experience. Continental Catering was more than accommodating with our "Americana-style" menu...making the selection process fun and easy. My guests are still raving about the food! Continental staff was punctual, friendly, and attentive to both myself and my guests throughout the event. Overall, an outstanding experience!

I chose Continental Catering as part of the package available at El Cortez Don Room. The service was awesome, our main contact Christie was a rock star even on crutches, and our guests are still raving about the food 2 weeks later! We've had seasoned wedding attendees who have said the food was hands down the best wedding food they have ever had. I was worried about having a buffet, but it was so delicious and definitely not dried up.

Continental Catering was offered at a great price through our venue, the El Cortez. We ended up paying $57 per person (about 106 people), which was amazing compared to other estimates. The tasting put us at ease, because all of the food was delicious. The hor d'oeuvres were fabulous---crab cakes, mini burgers, and a vegetarian turnover---our guests loved them. The buffet-style menu was also great! We had 2 meats, 2 sides, and assorted dinner rolls. Also, cucumber water/tea/coffee were provided. All of the dinnerware/glassware was beautiful. We were very happy with how the food turned out and how fresh it all tasted. Thank you for the excellent service!

Continental Catering did such a fantastic job with our wedding. We had a small wedding of 25 people that started at 10:30 AM. It was held at Leo Carrillo Ranch. Because we were having a destination wedding, it was important to us to trust our vendors completely. We trusted Kristie from the first day. We never got the chance to do a tasting because of the distance, but I didn’t even sweat it! Our food was great. Continental Catering handled the food and furniture and staff! They had our site set up in plenty of time for a morning wedding and far exceeded my expectations! Kristie Emmons was SO responsive! She answered every question I had, and every question I never thought of! Continental Catering even added decor to the site and tables (a travel theme). She worked with us to get the perfect brunch menu. We had so many options for food. I had special requests when it came to what was being served as far as drinks (specialty tea and spa water stations) and bar options. They went above and beyond at our coffee station and had specialty mix-ins (cinnamon, chocolate, etc). We didn’t have a wedding cake out our reception, but instead Continental Catering had a live donut station with ice cream! It was a hit! We loved our beautiful food! Kristie even helped with logistics, since our ceremony and reception were in the exact same location. I wasn’t sure how to transition between the two (since the chairs used for the ceremony were also for the reception), and she had great ideas. I cannot thank Kristie and the Continental Catering team enough. They were so professional. I am so lucky to have found continental catering!

Continental Catering catered our August wedding and they were amazing. I had the pleasure of working with Kristie from the initial phone conversation to the wedding day. Kristie was extremely helpful and really took the time to answer any questions that we had throughout the process. The food on our wedding day was amazing and our guests loved it! All of the appetizers and main entrees were delicious. The staff was great with our guests and having Kristie there really put me at ease. Not only is the food and service amazing, they are fairly priced compared to many other catering companies in the area. I would highly recommend them for your event!

Kristie at Continental is fantastic!! She was professional, fun and went above and beyond our expectations. She was very helpful in suggesting delicious appetizers, main courses and desserts. Our guests are still commenting on how good the fall off the bone, tender, the short ribs were. Some have been inspired to try to duplicate them at home...I think that says it all!!!

All of my guests told me the best thing about my wedding was how great my food was. They couldn't stop raving about it. I loved that it was so easy to feed my vegetarian guests great dishes as well as the carnivores! Amazing food. If I ever find myself in need of a caterer again, I know who to call.

From beginning to end, Continental gave us the most professional attention to every detail and executed the evening's meal and service to perfection. The staff on hand was incredibly professional and the food is still receiving rave reviews from our guests. A delight to work with, attentive to details, great style and set up and delicious food!

We had such a fun variety of food at our wedding--definitely not the typical dishes which made our wedding feel unique and personal. They decorated our buffet table to fit our theme too. The staff was all very friendly and the food was AMAZING! I would highly recommend them!

Continental did a great job of customizing my menu. They also had some creative ways to serve and display the food.

I got married at the Birch Aquarium and they have a list of which vendors you can use. Therefore, being on a limited budget, I went with them. Kristie was good to work with, answering emails and phone calls in a timely manner and the tasting went well, so I felt confident in my choice. We had several stations of appetizers and a cocktail hour station. The bartender they provided was excellent and they boxed up what leftover food there was, which wasn't much. My guests did some serious chowing. Their glassware and plates were nice quality and the set up presentation was very nice at the stations with their linens and mossballs (I used another vendor for other linens). They did box up all our alcohol and take it back to their office as we provided our own. When I addressed some minor issues several days later, Christy, another manager resolved them. They are accomodating and their food is good. I am still eating a bit of my leftover food. TY for your help and making things easier on our day!

First of all Maria is amazing! She will work with you to make sure you have exactly the food you want and linens! It has been 16 days since our wedding and people are still contacting me to tell me how much they loved the food.

For our wedding, we decided to go with a cocktail style meal. Continental worked with our vision and budget and it was a total hit! The guests loved the atmosphere and at the end of the night we had hardly any food to box up! The staff is friendly and professional.

Continental Catering did a great job at our wedding! They were very experienced and professional. We had our ideas and theme and they ran with that and made the reception look better than I could have imagined. They were even able to create a menu that fit our budget. I could not have been happier with the service, food, and atmosphere that Continental created.

We worked with Maria for all of our wedding catering. She is so nice and very attentive to every detail we wanted. She made she everything ran smoothly and looked beautiful. We couldn't be more happy with our choice to go with this company!

YUM! I cannot tell you how many compliments we have had on our food. We had stations for our dinner motif. That way, we ended up having food out ALL night! People loved it! Not only was there food all night, but it was amazing. Our photographers who are Oktoberfest experts said that they made the best german brats that they have ever had. And the people couldn't have been any nicer to work with. There was SO much food, and way less of a cost than other caters we had priced!

The display was amazing, and everything I asked for. I was impressed with the quality of the food, and there was a good portion for each person. They do charge a service fee which can be a bit high, but in the end it is worth it for all the details they take care of and the quality. Many guests told me they were impressed with the food.

LOVE LOVE LOVE!!! We met and tasted 4 other caterers before seeing Kristie at Continental. The food at the tasting was so delicious and the price was more than fair for what we were doing. Krisite was so accommodating with all of our special requests too. Seriously, look no further! We also had so many comments from family that, "This was the best food we have ever had at a wedding!" And food is a big deal to us! The only bummer is, I only had a few bites of food on my wedding night! Krisite, can I come for another tasting?

Food was very good. We got to keep all the extra food. Staff was helpful and friendly.

Loved them! Thank you Kristie for all your hard work! Her team packaged the food for us at the end and was able to save some appetizers as well. Nice variety of food to choose from. The spinach salad with homemade rice dressing and prime rib on a Parmesan crisp were to DIE for!!

I simply cannot say enough good things about this company. The food at our reception will go down as legendary! The staff went above and beyond - even figured out how to bustle my dress when a bridesmaid went missing ;) I highly recommend this catering company. Brides can relax and stop researching the thousands of other companies! Continental is the best!!!!

Everyone loved our food chosen at the wedding. The price is very reasonable, and the food is delicious. A lot of our guests were telling us that this was the food they ever had at a wedding. Everyone loved the short ribs we had. Highly recommend them for any event!

We loved them. They have excellent food and did an amazing job decorating the food tables. Maria was so helpful and helped make my visions come. I would recommend them to anyone and use them again.

awesome food, the tasting was so fun, presentation was fabulous. They gave us the least expensive quote of any vendor on our' venue's preferred list, which we had to stick to. It was expensive, yes, but it was also amazing. Kristied fixed plates for us at the wedding and made sure we took leftovers home afterwards. I have gotten SO many complements on the food it is ridiculous. Kristie was also helpful in honestly telling us ways to shave the cost down, which was appreciated.

They exceeded my expectations, the set up was great and the food was memorable!

Great food. Everyone said the food was fantastic. I wish I had time to actually eat my meal. I was happy with my choices.

We worked with Kristie and she was amazing! Our wedding was in Rancho Bernardo and we're from LA so she was very flexable with our time when it came to tastings and meetings. Their food was delicious and their entire staff was beyond words. By the end of the night, I was hugging each of them, thanking them for their AMAZING service and wonderful professionalism. I couldn't say enough great things about this company and how seamless their service is. Delicious food and delicious experience!

I worked with Kristie Emmons at Continental Catering and she was GREAT! Going into our first appointment with Continental we were very unsure as to what we were looking for. We brainstormed together in person, via the telephone and via email and ended up with an amazing final product! She was able to help us figure out how many tables we needed for the look we were going for, how many heaters to rent, how many food items to select, how many bottles of alcohol to suite our guests needs and so on. The day of our wedding she took everything into her own hands and executed everything beautifully. People loved the Hors D' Oeuvres and cocktails created by Continental and still talk about how unique it was!
