Alicia at James Standfield Catering rocked it! Our guests LOVED the food. We had moderately sized cocktail type dining, but ample quantity to keep everyone satisfied. Biggest hits ...
were the dumplings, pork buns, and mini burgers! People absolutely loved the dumplings! Everything went very smoothly at our wedding, and we would highly recommend James Standfield Catering for any event!
A testimonial to James Standfield Catering and staff simply feels like we are not doing them justice. We state this because they went above and beyond to make our wedding receptio...
n a spectacular experience from our first inquiry online to the premium quality food they served. Not to mention the excellent customer service skills their entire team exhibited.
Alicia and Roxanne from James Standfield kept an open line of communication, proposed tons of options, and were very flexible with accommodating our needs. They truly put our minds at ease before the celebration by showing us everything would be handled with care and precision and they did exactly that. Well actually, they exceeded our expectations. For instance, prior to cocktail hour- our wedding party arrived at the venue early because we were done taking pictures. As we settled into the Bridal Suite to freshen up and relax, James Standfield Catering Staff, without cue, starting serving us refreshments and appetizers. After having a ceremony and taking pictures for a couple of hours, this level of service told us we were in good hands.
The entire night was like that. Lastly, asides from the amazing customer service from serving staff, bartenders, kitchen staff, etc, the food was DELICIOUS!!! If you think I am joking, I kid you not. Fortunately, we arranged to have our food served buffet style because our guests told us they at least went back for seconds, some even went back for thirds. Also because we feared having any food wasted after our celebration, we requested for to-go boxes for guests to take food home if they wanted. Needless to say, at the the end of the night, all the food was gone! Till this day, we still get complimented on the food at our wedding reception and guests who are planning future events have already asked me for James Standfield Catering information. Do yourself a favor and contact James Standfield first if you're given the option to go with your own caterer. They will not let you down.
Best vendor decision! After my husband and I interviewed over 10 bay area full service caterers for our wedding, we knew instantly after meeting Alicia, we want to go with James St...
andfield.
It all started with the tasting. We had no idea my brother was going to be in town, so when he flew in that morning of our tasting, of course, we wanted to bring him with us. That was the first sign I knew Alicia was quick to accommodate any surprises. As soon as we walked in, I apologized for the last minute guest and hoped to just share our 2 meal portion among 3 people. Alicia, went the extra mile and added an entire extra portion and place setting for my brother.
Me being an email type of girl, communicating with Alicia was heaven. She is thorough, patient and always remembered what I asked. Even when I personally felt like I was being annoying, she never confirmed those feelings.
Most reasonable price for a full service caterer in the Bay Area, plus conveniently located and available on Saturdays for tastings.
During the event, everything came out perfect! Again, Alicia was right there to greet us as we arrived to the venue. She helped coordinate my crazy wedding party for the ceremony and managed to accommodate 2 extra seating assignments I forgot to include on our floor plan (oops).
As for the food, our appetizers were a hit!! Luckily, Alicia made us a plate so we could actually taste what everyone was raving about. The winner, mini Tomato soup and grill cheese. A close second, was the Bruchetta. As for the entree, we couldn't really eat at that point of the wedding. I hear thats a thing b/c of all the craziness. But we did get a large doggie bag of left over entrees which wasn't bad for a middle night meal.
Unfortunately, I wish I could've personally said bye to Alicia before she left but I imagine we must have been incredibly distracted and surrounded by people.
All in all, Alicia is AMAZING!! I would highly recommend this caterer to any of my newly engaged friends.
She's gold. I called 27 caterers before I made my decision and I am fully confident that this catering service was the BEST choice I could have made for my wedding. Alicia is the c...
oordinator and she is quite possibly the most wonderful person to work with. She put us at ease from the very beginning. The food was delicious. The staff was incredibly professional and beyond polite to the guests. Go with James Standfield and you will NOT regret it. I am very pleased and thankful we did.
Alicia was the reason we booked with James Standfield and she didn't disappoint! She'd worked at our venue many times so we loved all her great suggestions. And she was very accomm...
odating with our menu, and when we requested an additional tasting and that our starch be split between potatoes and rice. The wedding went off without a hitch, Alicia and her team were a dream to work with!
I hired James Standfield for staffing services only as I used a different caterer. I worked with Alicia and she is beyond awesome! She helped manage the set up of the reception si...
te, the wedding day timeline, and basically acted as a day of wedding coordinator. I think we could have pulled everything off without her, but it would have made things extremely stressful so I'm very thankful to Alicia and her team for helping to make my wedding vision a reality with no hiccups. The only grip I have is that for the amount of money I spent on hiring the service staff I would think that they would have acted a bit more professionally and not had several members of the serving staff take pictures in the photo booth and then not know where certain items were left causing me to be out some $$.
Alicia is a dream to work with. She is just on it. We got married at San Francisco City Hall and Alicia really stepped up into planner/coordinator mode, going above and beyond what...
I ever thought would be her responsibilities. We knew we didn't have to worry about anything having her at the helm. She accepted a bunch of our day of items (such as our candy bar) ahead of time and brought them to the venue for us. In addition to great service, the food was phenomenal and we received a lot of comments about how delicious everything was. I highly recommend them!
Alicia is a great wedding coordinater. She was willing to work with our budget and was very sweet to all of us (including my at-times-crazy MIL). The salad was great and rest of ...
the food was fairly good. For the price and all of the services provided by the company, I felt this was a good value.
We loved, loved, loved James Standfield Catering and their amazing coordinator, Alicia Kite. Alicia was low-pressure, very professional, and made sure our wedding went off without...
a hitch. In addition to taking care of the catering, she also coordinated and took care of all the tables, chairs, linens, plates, glasses, barware, etc. It's like a one stop wedding shop! The staff provided for our wedding was very professional, dressed well, extremely attentive, and overall amazing. Not to mention the FOOD. Yum!! We did a large sampling of heavy hors d'ouvres for our wedding, and everything was delicious and presented beautifully. I couldn't be happier with James Standfield and the wonderful Alicia Kite.
