Trattoria da Vittorio

them enough! From the very beginning of the planning process, Vittorio was responsive, accommodating, and incredibly easy to work with. From menu selections to bar planning, he made us feel completely sure that everything would be handled seamlessly. On the day of our wedding, Vittorio and his team were outstanding. The service was professional, they were attentive to our guests, and ensured everything ran smoothly. The drinks were excellent and the food was delicious! We received countless compliments throughout the night. Vittorio and the Trattoria da Vittorio team truly helped make our day unforgettable! 

ndled all of the linens, passed out appetizers, cleared tables and filled water glasses, etc.  I cannot praise Vittorio and his team enough! Everyone loved the food and many went back for multiple servings. His team was kind and attentive in their service. Vittorio was so easy to work with, was very flexible with us changing the date or number of guests. He prepared us an incredible tasting at his restaurant so we were confident about the food.  The price point for the quality of food was also fantastic and way more affordable than most of my friends’ caterers for their weddings. Cheers to Vittorio and team! Thank you so much! - the Akkads

ess compliments on dinner at our wedding. I highly, highly recommend choosing Vittorio for any catering occasion. 

was responsive and friendly. Once we did a tasting and had some of the best Italian food in our lives, we booked him right there on the spot. He was always available to talk to us and responded quickly. Our wedding venue was not easy to deal with. Despite all of the intricacies and questions that we had, Vittorio was attentive and helped us along the way. All of the logistics for our wedding went well and we had zero major problems. Vittorio was able to take care of the rental equipment and did a fantastic job at very quickly setting up our ceremony and moving everything over to our reception later, and they cleaned everything up perfectly at the end of the night. We and all of the guests loved the food. We had bruschetta and meatballs as appetizers, 2 pasta dishes and 2 meat entrees. For dessert we had Tiramisu, Profiteroles, and cannoli tower. The cannoli tower is an add-on that I would highly recommend. The cannolis and the tiramisu were some of the best I ever had, which is a compliment I don’t make lightly. All-in all, you must choose this place to be your caterer!

stayed in contact throughout the year before, and by the time the wedding rolled around, it felt like he was part of our whole wedding journey. We loved that we were working directly with a real and local person. From the initial tasting to the actual wedding day, his team’s professionalism, friendliness, and execution were top notch. His team was actually the only caterer we did a tasting with, since the food at the tasting was incredible, and the service was some of the best we had experienced at any restaurant. So it was a done deal for us, especially considering his very reasonable prices. At the wedding, we received countless compliments on the food and service, and we only left with one tray of leftovers since everyone had gone up for seconds (and thirds!). I don’t think you can find a better value, better team, or better food than Vittorio’s team can serve. We’re so lucky that we can go back to his restaurant anytime we want whenever we’re feeling nostalgic about our wedding day. (Go to his restaurant! It’s honestly some of the best Italian in the city. The eggplant parm is fabulous, and I usually don’t like eggplant.)

gives you good advice for your wedding needs. I will definitely use him for my next big event! Plus his restaurant is great too!

s, including bruschettas, caprese skewers, meatballs, and prosciutto and melon. His team then served a family style dinner to 130 guests with Caesar salad, pesto rigatoni, fiochetti, short rib, and chicken piccata, also ensuring our vegan/vegetarian/dairy free/gluten free guests were served at the same time with what I heard was a delicious dish. I didn't get to eat any dessert but one of my friends told me she ate her weight in cream puffs. Our guests could not stop raving about the food and have asked us where Vittorio's restaurant is so they can go back! Vittorio also brought in bartenders who absolutely crushed it with my bartender husband's very specific drink recipes. We feel SO lucky to have found Vittorio. He and his team were so on top of it and the food, drinks, and service were amazing. We felt so taken care of by him and his team, and I can't wait to visit his restaurant for our anniversary for years to come.

oo busy to truly sit and enjoy. Guess we will have to visit the restaurant soon (; thank you, thank you, Vittorio for your delicious food and for accommodating all of our guests’ dietary restrictions! 

ing process. After speaking with a handful of other caterers, we were getting stressed. Each of them required us to handle tons of logistics—renting plates, silverware, wine glasses, water glasses, hiring a bartender, etc. It felt like we were being handed a second job and there was no way we would be able to handle it all on the day of the wedding. Vittorio was the first person who came in and covered it all for an extremely reasonably price. He handled every detail seamlessly, and allowed us to actually relax and enjoy our wedding knowing that everything was under control. The food itself was incredible. We had a buffet—pastas, chicken piccata, mashed potato, braised beef, bread, salads—and our guests couldn’t stop talking about how good everything was. Vittorio handled dietary restrictions really seriously. We had guests with serious gluten allergies, including celiac. He even adjusted his braised beef preparation method specifically to avoid any risk of cross-contamination. Vittorio brought not only great food, but also professionalism, care, and calm. We’re so grateful we found him, and we’d recommend him without hesitation to anyone planning a wedding or event in the Bay Area.

wrap around full service catering experience all at an unheard of affordable price. Our venue was very DIY only with tables and chairs - so Vittorio’s team brought in and set up all the linens, plate ware, silver ware, glasses, serving ware etc. for the cocktail reception and dinner needs. While we provided the alcohol, Vittorio’s bartending team was excellent making amazing mixed drinks and efficient service for our 180+ guests. Vittorio is professional, calm, and a gem of a person - he knows what he is doing and will not lead you astray in your planning. He was extremely responsive and always answered our questions in a timely manner making us feel at ease during the process. Now for the food - wow! We love eating at his restaurant Trattoria de Vittorio in SF, and the catering was no different - the food is great. The lasagna is mind blowing and all of our guests raved about the white stuffed pasta and short rib that was served. We loved having tiramisu in place of a wedding cake and our guests enjoyed Vittorio's personal service of the dessert and coffee to end the night. We recommend any bride and groom to use Vittorio and his team - or for any event! We will cherish the memory of the meal forever and look forward to celebrating our anniversaries to come at his restaurant.

he buffet. Thank you so much for helping us have some great food and drinks for our special day.

a weekend or a scheduled weekday call. He was always on it and ready to help you make your wedding day special.

ed in having on our Wedding day. There was plenty of food for all 100 of our guests and was raved about by many! His delivery team and Antonio ensured a smooth delivery and setup process ahead of the venue start time!

provided such as bartending and furniture rental. Vittorio took care of everything we needed for our wedding to be a beautiful experience at a very reasonable price. Would highly recommend his catering services for your next wedding.

the best day, the best service, and the BEST food. They are unmatched! THANK YOU

I asked and moved our car at the end of the night since we were unable to drive. The events coordinator at the venue was following him around, getting in his way, and just watching him all night. She did the same to me the day before the wedding so I knew she was going to make things harder. Vittorio handled her with grace, he was way nicer to her than I could ever have been. Vittorio is very organized and communicates well which took a lot of my stress away. I would highly recommend.

of my email! We don’t live in the area so he let us come visit and do a sampling in his restaurant. He worked with me and my fiance to create an incredible menu for our guests. When we had people cancel or drop other was able to accommodate us and adjust things as needed. His staff showed up onsite ready to go and did a fantastic job. They served the appetizers for me and then served the buffet we had. The food was incredible. We did a menu of short ribs and chicken piccata, mashed potatoes, fresh veggies, salads and a wonderful homemade Fiocchetti pasta which was to die for! It made the event truly magical!!!! All the guests loved the food !!!! It was a pleasant experience from start to finish and I HIGHLY recommend this place !

s like family. When we visited his restaurant for a tasting, we were completely spoiled—he brought out so many options, and every single dish was absolutely delicious. It was clear how much care and pride he puts into his food. Trattoria Da Vittorio made the entire planning process incredibly easy and stress-free. He was responsive, organized, and thoughtful. He checked in ahead of the wedding to make sure we had everything we needed, but honestly, he already had every detail down. We never had to follow up or worry—he just handled it all. On the wedding day, the food was beyond amazing. We received so many compliments from our guests. The staff he brought with him were kind, respectful, and professional, and everything ran so smoothly. He also took care of all the extras—cups, plates, napkins, and even the tablecloths—which were such a relief not to have to think about. Everything was clean, high-quality, and perfectly coordinated. Trattoria Da Vittorio went above and beyond, and we felt so well taken care of throughout the entire experience. If you’re looking for incredible Italian food and a vendor you can truly rely on, I highly recommend working with Trattoria Da Vittorio for your wedding or any special event. And if you’re local, make sure to stop by his restaurant—my husband and I plan to go back often. It’s become a place that will always remind us of one of the best days of our lives.

uestion as to who we would ask to cater our wedding in San Francisco. We met with Vittorio about six months before and did a full tasting. He comes to the table with excellent recommendations and he made it so easy for us to settle on a menu. On top of all of this, he provided servers, a bartender, linens, champagne glasses, and extraordinary service leading up to and on our special day. When the wedding day finally arrived, we did not have to worry about a thing because he - alongside his amazing staff - took care of everything. They are the complete package and the next time I need to host an event, they will be the first caterer that I call. I need to rave about the food as well. We had three different passed appetizers (bruschette, meatballs, caprese skewers), four mains for the buffet (short ribs, lasagne, chicken piccata, fiochette pasta), caesar salad, mixed vegetables, bread, and for dessert tiramisu and profiterols. Talk about an amazing spread! Our guests were blown away and raved about how delicious everything was. San Francisco locals now plan to visit the restaurant! Again, I cannot recommend Trattoria da Vittorio enough. Outstanding food and incredible service. Not to mention kind and friendly owners and servers. We will be customers for life.

ishes, and bar service. The food was absolutely delicious—our guests couldn’t stop raving about it! The team was professional, organized, and a joy to work with. If you’re looking for outstanding catering that will make your event unforgettable, Trattoria da Vittorio is the way to go!

it was the best pasta they ever had. On top of that, Vittorio and his team are just the best. They are so kind and attentive, it made the craziness of a wedding day go so smoothly! Thank you for your superb service Vittorio! We will be coming back to your restaurant again and again and would love the opportunity for you to cater for us again in the future!

ions. From the moment we started planning, they made the entire process so easy and stress-free. What stood out the most was how attentive they were to our guests’ dietary needs—nothing was too much trouble, and they went above and beyond to ensure everyone had delicious options to enjoy. The food was nothing short of amazing. Our guests still can't stop talking about the tender short ribs, the flavorful chicken piccata, the rich and comforting lasagna, and the fiocchetti, which was simply out of this world. Every bite was incredible, and it made the dining experience unforgettable. The entire meal was an absolute hit with everyone! On the day of the wedding, their team seamlessly handled everything. They executed a flawless transition between the ceremony and reception setups while simultaneously making sure the passed appetizers were flowing during cocktail hour. Their professionalism, combined with the incredible quality of food, made them a standout vendor (who became more like family). And on top of all of that, their pricing was beyond reasonable for the level of service they provided. We feel so fortunate to have had Vittorio and the Trattoria da Vittorio team be a part of our special day and highly recommend them to anyone looking for outstanding food and exceptional service. We will certainly be using them again in the future, and visiting the restaurant many more times with our friends and family!

Vittorio was truly amazing from start to finish. First he did a huge tasting for us at his restaurant and helped us choose the wedding menu. Then he met us at the rental place and helped us pick linens, napkins, silverware, glassware - basically everything that would go on the tables, and calculated the prices for different options right on the spot, so we always knew what the total amount would be in the end. He would always respond to my emails and texts within minutes, so we never had any communication issues. He also communicated with my wedding planner and the venue coordinator the last few weeks before the wedding and they never had any issues either. On the day of the wedding Vittorio and his team were brilliant. They arrived on time, set up the tables, set up the buffet, promptly switched to dessert and coffee and then cleaned up right after. The food was out of this world - I don’t even know how many compliments I got on the dinner! Many of our friends repeatedly said ‘the food at the wedding traditionally isn’t the greatest, but this was sooo delicious!’ and it really was. Everything was cooked to perfection and served on time. I think my personal favorite was the fiocchetti pasta and salmon, and my husband loved the braised short ribs. It was great having vegetarian options in the mix too. And their desserts are just the best - tiramisu and profiteroles were a huge hit with everyone! If you’re still deciding on catering and want your reception to be stress-free, at least from the catering perspective - I can’t recommend Vittorio enough. He really cares and will do his best to make your reception unforgettable and will help you as much as he possibly can for everything to go smoothly. Vittorio, if you’re reading this - thank you again, you are truly incredible, and both Nick and I are so so grateful for everything you’ve done for us!

s attentive to our needs and vision. The food was truly outstanding; our guests are still raving about how delicious everything was! The flavors, presentation, and quality were exceptional. On top of that, Vittorio's staff was incredible—attentive, friendly, and quick to ensure every guest was taken care of. The entire experience was seamless, and they played a huge role in making our wedding day unforgettable. If you're looking for a caterer who will exceed your expectations and leave a lasting impression on your guests, I highly recommend Vittorio.

well as choosing what entrees and desserts we wanted served. My fiancé and I stopped in at his restaurant and he gave us an amazing tasting of a wide variety of dishes to help us decide. Everything was so good, the staff were super friendly, and the restaurant has great vibes. Service at the wedding reception was also top-notch - again Vittorio was super helpful with setup and his staff were very attentive and friendly throughout the whole event. The food was also just as good as at the restaurant, which is particularly impressive considering they made enough for 100 people. Everyone raved about the food and were excited to take home leftovers. One guest even texted me a week later saying they had a dream about the food it was so good. Bonus, Vittorio made enough food for all of our other vendors free of charge. Overall highly recommend both the restaurant as well as catering service!

od, service, and table settings were excellent. Everything was as promised and as expected.

ful job of having everyone enjoy delicious food, make their plates both quickly and comfortably, and did this in such an orderly fashion it was mind blowing. He truly makes you feel like family, it was such an honor to have his food served at our reception. I STRONGLY suggest checking out his restaurant as well since its delicious, but if you ever plan on having good, quality Italian food with elite service at a large event, look no further than Trattoria Da Vittorio.

excellent communicator leading up to the reception and helped us finalize details as late as the week before. Given the quality of the food and the service, Vittorio’s catering is the best deal I found for wedding catering in the entire Bay Area. Please consider hiring Vittorio and his team for any catering services you require!!

s a pleasure to work with in the months leading up to the event, being extremely responsive to questions and helping us navigate planning the event, as we did not use a professional wedding planner. He came to the venue to help set up promptly and even helped us with various things that came up as we were setting up. His bartenders and serving staff were extremely friendly and helped make the party even more fun. We would absolutely work with Vittorio again and we are already recommending him to all of our friends in the area.

r needs and requests. His staff and service were extremely attentive to us and to our wedding guests. He offered us and our family tastings at his restaurant, which not all caterers do. The fiochetti pasta, arugula beet salad, and veal marsala were to die for. Go with cannoli tower if you want to wow your guests! Thank you Vittorio for the Italian wedding of our dreams!

etary needs. I couldn’t be happier with the food and the service. I can honestly say that I didn’t have to ask or remind the team of anything. They were professional and amazing. Thank you Vito!!

t to taste test the food that was mediocre and unimpressive. I was at my wits end with finding a good caterer until my now husband started to expand our search for caterer into SF area and Trattoria da Vittorio popped up on our radar. I believe everything happens for a reason and THANK GOODNESS we found Vittorio because he is such an amazing person. Vittorio is fair on pricing with us, very kind, and beyond helpful to us during a stressful time. First off, we were offered a complimentary food tasting event at the restaurant and Vittorio was super generous with the offering. He served us so many different appetizers and entrees. Even insisted to pair his food with wine so that we get the full experience. The food was BEYOND delicious too. I don't think I've ever been to an Italian restaurant that hand makes ravioli and fiochetti as well as Vittorio and his team. I can really tell that Vittorio is passionate about Italian food and really cares about the quality. On the day of our wedding, Vittorio took care of everything and made my wedding a dream come true. He and his team even step up when our coordinators were lacking in their role. From helping with serving food, bussing tables to ending the night by cutting our cakes to serve to guests and cleaning up the tables... Vittorio amazes me with his customer service skill as well as compassion for us, the newly weds. It's been 5 days since our wedding and our family and friends still talk about how amazing the food at our wedding was! We served the ravioli, fiochetti, chicken in lemon capers sauce, and braised short ribs during the main course. The ravioli was made with black truffle and it was fragrant, tender, and just the right amount of creaminess. The fiochetti was firm yet soft, bursting with flavor of Italian cheese and pear. The chicken cooked in lemon capers sauce was not too sour nor tough. And the braised short ribs MELTED in our mouths. It was filled with flavor and I could tell was stewed and simmered for a very long time to give it such tenderness. To top it all off, Vittorio also made us a cannoli tower. I've gained 5 lbs alone eating the cannoli. It's the perfect ratio of filling to pastry. I can go on and on about Vittorio! We will definitely be recommending to all of our family and friends. As well as coming by to dine at the restaurant every year on our wedding anniversary or whenever we are in SF area :)

rentals, and catering staff for our wedding. His service and food were exceptional, from our phenomenal tasting in SF to going above and beyond shipping in a last-minute request, and we couldn’t have been happier. We don’t even like eggplant and the eggplant parmesan is incredible. Every guest we’ve spoken to since our wedding has complimented the food, and we’re so pleased we had time to eat our own delicious dinner.

fort to offer a personalized touch. We love that he also has a restaurant in SF that we can now visit on future anniversaries or special occasions.

hard to believe - people remembering the food for months? The best wedding food they'd ever had? Despite my skepticism, we did a tasting at Vittorio's restaurant. Sure enough, the food was amazing, and Vittorio himself was very kind and helpful. We decided to work with him, crossing our fingers that the food would be as good as our wedding venue as at the restaurant. Again, Vittorio delivered a masterpiece. He and his crew cooked everything just right, so that by the time it had traveled from his SF restaurant to our venue all the way in Marin, it was all the right consistency. The salmon was still flaky, not overcooked; the brisket was flavorful; and yes, we still hear to this day about how amazing the pear gorgonzola pasta was. Food aside, working with Vittorio was a breeze. He was kind and responsive throughout and helped our day run smoothly, handling all the linen, silverware, etc rentals for us - and at an excellent price. I really could not recommend Vittorio's catering enough, and my wife and I will definitely be attending his restaurant for years to come!

as exactly as we wanted. The food was delicious and for weeks after the wedding, our guests were still raving about the fiochetti pasta. Vittorio really made everything a breeze for us from the service, set up, and rentals. The entire catering package was such a great value and made a 200 person wedding possible for our budget. I’m so glad we booked Trattoria da Vittorio for our wedding and highly recommend them to everyone for catering their event!

s raving about the incredible culinary experience. The menu curated by Vittorio was nothing short of a gastronomic masterpiece. The selection of authentic Italian dishes showcased a perfect balance of traditional flavors and modern creativity. The staff were consummate professionals. From the initial planning stages to the actual event, they demonstrated unparalleled expertise and a commitment to excellence. The service was seamless, and they went above and beyond to ensure that every guest felt attended to and satisfied. The flexibility and accommodation of our specific requests were greatly appreciated. Vitto worked with us to create a menu that catered to various dietary preferences and restrictions, ensuring that everyone could enjoy their dinner. Beyond the incredible food and service, the team's dedication to creating a warm and inviting atmosphere added an extra layer of magic to our celebration. The servers played with the kids and interacted with the guests so much that they felt like they were part of the family. It has been a week since our wedding and we continue to receive compliments about the catering, with guests reminiscing about the delicious food Trattoria da Vittorio brought to our special day. 1000000/10 would recommend!

very impressed by the food! And the value for money was unmatched. If you’re considering going with him, just do it.

t him and experience his amazing food and hospitality. He welcomed our family to enjoy the tasting with us as well. Vittorio's professionalism and knowledge of catering large events set us at ease; he knew exactly what we would need from start to finish, and he was more than happy to walk us through the details. Our venue did not provide much to accommodate food service for 120 guests, but Vittorio brought everything necessary to make food service and bartending go smoothly. The food was nothing short of amazing and delicious. Our guests are still raving about the pear fiocchetti, tiramisu, and everything else three weeks after the event. We also had several guests with unusual dietary restrictions, and Vittorio was able to accommodate all of them without issue. Even the food with modified, allergen-free recipes were exceptional. We had a relatively complicated bar setup with several cocktails, a mocktail, many different whiskeys, and not enough time on the day-of to properly explain everything to the bartenders. Despite this, Vittorio and his experienced team made the open bar an incredible success. He has an incredible eye for the small details. For example, we were busy with photos during the cocktail hour and we missed the appetizers, but he set two plates of apps on the head table for us to enjoy when we finished. Additionally, there were problems outside of Vittorio's scope, but he went above and beyond to help make sure the day went perfectly for us. We can't recommend Vittorio enough, both as a restaurant and an event caterer.
