We couldn’t be happier with Trattoria da Vittorio, who catered our wedding! From start to finish, they went above and beyond, handling not just the food but also rentals, linens, dishes, 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!
I cannot say enough wonderful things about Vittorio and his team. Not only does he provide an extremely inclusive service, the food is AMAZING! We had guests coming up to us saying 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!
We just want to say Vittorio was AMAZING!!! Very professional, kind, communicative, and extremely helpful. Vittorio and his team will go above and beyond to make sure your day goes as smoothly as possible. Vittorio and his team made planning for a wedding seem like a piece of cake! Vittorio is not your regular caterer as he will forever be our dearest friend and we will return to his restaurant every year for our anniversary to celebrate! That's just how good his food is that we crave it even after our wedding day! Anyone who hires Vittorio for ANY event will be extremely lucky to have him. My wife and I plan to hire Vittorio for all our future events!
Any questions?
Can I give more than 5 stars? Because I 100% would if I could…
We had the privilege of working with Vittorio and his team for our wedding, and they truly exceeded all our expectations. 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!
Trattoria da Vittorio is my MIL’s favorite Italian restaurant in SF and when the time came to choose catering for our wedding, she insisted on Vittorio and I am so glad she did!
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!
We couldn't have asked for a better caterer than Vittorio for our wedding! From the very beginning, Vittorio was an absolute pleasure to work with—professional, flexible, and always 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.
Vittorio did the catering for my wedding and both the food, service, and communication was phenomenal! He was extremely helpful in helping us organize our buffet and bar setup, as 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!
Vittorio did a buffet dinner for us, plus bartending and was flexible enough to add another bartender the week before the wedding because we decided we wanted more variety. The food, service, and table settings were excellent. Everything was as promised and as expected.
Vittorio was absolutely phenomenal as our caterer for our big wedding. We had close to 450 people for our grand wedding, and LET ME TELL YOU that Vittorio and his team did a wonderful 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.
Vittorio catered our wedding reception and did a FANTASTIC job. The food was delicious, the bar service was very efficient, and he was very professional the day of. He was also an 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!!
Vittorio catered our wedding reception at Fort Mason in San Francisco this March, and he did an outstanding job. His food was excellent and all of our guests were very happy. He was 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.
We found Vittorio on Google reviews. Vittorio is very communicative, punctual, and pays attention to detail. He arrived well in advance to any meetings we had. He is flexible to our 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!
Vittorio and his team are the best. We dined at their West Portal (SF) location after a recommendation from our planner. She mentioned that he was very reasonably priced and the food is delicious. She was right— we liked the food here so much and decided to have them cater our 105 person wedding! He even had us to the restaurant twice once just us and once with my parents to try the food! Vittorio is the nicest guy and super accommodating. He had vegan options for our guests and gluten free pasta. Not to mention, the food is so so good! My favorites include the lasagna and the fiochetti (iykyk!!). His staff is top notch and super friendly and nice. They manned the bars, served food, and ran back of the house prep. They also served meals to our other vendors.
Overall, we loved working with them and know we will come back and visit the restaurant many times!!
Thank you to Vittorio and his team for making our backyard wedding amazing !!!!! We highly recommend dining at their West Portal restaurant location and hiring them for all your event catering needs! 🤍🤍
Having Vito and his team cater our wedding was by far one of the best decisions we made! I didn’t worry about a thing. Vito was quick with his responses and he accommodated out dietary 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!!
The search for a caterer for our wedding was stressful and tough. Majority of the places we contacted either were unavailable for our wedding day or would charge us upward $150 just 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 :)
Our whole experience with Vittorio felt too good to be true. He provided excellent food and catering services at a very reasonable cost. Vittorio handled the food, wine, reception 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.
We recently had the absolute pleasure of having Trattoria da Vittorio cater our rehearsal dinner at home, and I can't sing their praises enough! From the first tasting at the restaurant to the flawless service on the day of the event, every detail was handled with exceptional care and professionalism.
The initial tasting was a delightful experience, showcasing the incredible variety of pastas and the fresh, vibrant flavors that would later impress all our guests. We were immediately sold on their commitment to quality and their passion for Italian cuisine.
On the day of the event, the service staff and bartender were nothing short of spectacular. They were attentive, friendly, and ensured that everything ran smoothly. The presentation of the food was exquisite, and truly the icing on the cake. Every dish was beautifully arranged and served with a touch of elegance that elevated the entire evening.
Our guests couldn’t stop raving about the food! The variety of pastas offered something for everyone, and each dish was bursting with flavor and freshness. It was clear that Trattoria da Vittorio takes immense pride in their culinary creations.
If you’re looking for top-notch catering with impeccable service and mouth-watering food, look no further than Trattoria da Vittorio. They made our rehearsal dinner an unforgettable experience, and we couldn’t be happier with our choice. Highly, highly recommend!
Vittorio did an amazing job with our wedding. He was easy to work with, paid attention to detail, and the food was amazing.
Highly recommend him for your event.
He makes every effort 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.
My wife and I had our wedding catered by Vittorio and his team last year. I had stumbled across Vittorio's restaurant on Yelp as we were looking for caterers, and the reviews were 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!
Vittorio was amazing and I can’t recommend him enough! He was one of the most responsive vendors we had and checked in regularly during the planning phase to make sure everything was 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!
We had an absolutely wonderful experience working with Trattoria da Vittorio as our wedding caterer! After searching through many different vendors (with a couple less-than-ideal tastings), a friend recommended we reach out to Vittorio and I am SO glad we did. He was extremely responsive and able to schedule a tasting the very next week. His Italian menu is DELICIOUS and the value for money is simply unbeatable. Vittorio is very personable and was a true joy to work with.
We had approximately 170 guests and the night went off seamlessly thanks to Vittorio’s expertise in handling all the logistics behind-the-scenes. Vittorio coordinated and brought in the catering staff, bartenders, and rentals that we needed. He was able to secure additional rentals we requested (e.g., heat lamps) and make sure all of the details were perfect (even the color of our napkins!). The team went above and beyond to cater to our guests allergies/dietary restrictions and make sure all could enjoy the delicious food. Guests came to us with raving reviews about the food and service (one commented specifically on how impressed they were with the organization of the catering team during the dinner service!)
The process of working with Vittorio was smooth and saved us a lot of time, energy, and wedding stress. We would love to work with Trattoria da Vittorio again for a future event given our outstanding experience! We look forward to continuing to celebrate anniversaries and visit his restaurant in West Portal for years to come.
Our decision to have Trattoria da Vittorio cater our wedding was an absolute game-changer! From the first bite to the last, every dish was a symphony of flavors that left our guests 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!
Vittorio is the man. Did catering for our wedding. All the apps, food, dessert, provided bartenders, arranged rentals. Was super helpful throughout the whole process. Everyone was very impressed by the food! And the value for money was unmatched. If you’re considering going with him, just do it.
We can't say enough good things about Vittorio, our wedding caterer. The first time we messaged him asking for information, he immediately offered to set up a tasting for us to meet 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.
I was so excited to learn that Trattoria Da Vittorio had a catering business. I immediately knew that I wanted them to cater my wedding. Their West Portal location has been my favorite place to go for Italian food since I first ate there over 10 years ago. I was looking forward to sharing their food with my family and friends since most of them haven't visited the Bay Area before. As expected, it was a big hit with our guests. They kept telling us how good the food was afterwards, especially the homemade eggplant parmigiana.
Vittorio and his team were such a pleasure to work with from start to finish. He invited us to a free tasting at his restaurant where we were able to try the different dishes and craft the perfect menu. He even offered to make adjustments to accommodate different dietary restrictions. Vittorio provided all the rentals we needed for the buffet, bar, champagne toast, coffee, and dessert setups, as well as the various linens for the tables. We provided our own drinks and he allowed us to drop them off at his restaurant a couple days early, which was a huge help. We could tell that his main goal was to make us happy and he went above and beyond to achieve that!
Vittorio and his team provided excellent service throughout the reception. He arrived early to set up the room and courtyard to match our floor plan. His staff walked around with appetizers during cocktail hour, handed out champagne as guests took their seats, and served food during the buffet. They also tore everything down amazingly fast after the reception finished. They put away the tables and chairs, boxed up all the extra food and drinks, cleaned up the kitchen, swept and mopped the floors, and more in under an hour.
We can't say enough good things about our experience with Vittorio and would HIGHLY recommend him to anyone looking for a caterer!
Trattoria da Vittorio is an Exceptional caterer!
We were extremely happy with the service we received from Vittorio and his team for our wedding this month. He was responsive to our questions and concerns, and he provided us with great suggestions and insight throughout the planning process. He was also very fair with his pricing, and the food was top quality.
Our guests raved about the food, and they especially enjoyed the variety of options that Vittorio offered. His staff was also very attentive and helpful, and they went above and beyond to make sure that our event was a success.
Vittorio not only provided the food, but also the venue rentals, bar service, and assisted with many miscellaneous items. He was a true partner to us and our coordinator, ensuring that everything went perfectly.
Here are some specific things that we appreciated about Vittorio and his team:
Responsiveness: Vittorio was always quick to respond to our emails and phone calls. He made himself available to answer our questions and address our concerns, even while on vacation.
Fair pricing: Vittorio's prices were very reasonable, especially considering the quality of the food and service that we received. He was also flexible with our budget and made sure that we got the food and service that we wanted.
Exceptional service: Vittorio and his staff were always attentive and helpful. They went above and beyond to make sure that our event ran smoothly without a hitch. They were also very accommodating to our guests' needs. Vittorio was also very pleasant to work with regardless of all the times I would make changes to our order.
Ability to manage ambiguity and last-minute changes: Vittorio was very understanding when things didn't go according to plan. He was able to adapt to last-minute changes seamlessly.
Delicious food: Our guests raved about the food that Vittorio catered. The food was beautifully presented and it tasted amazing.
Partnership: Vittorio partnered very well with us and our coordinator, ensuring that everything went perfectly in our eyes.
Overall, we had a magical day and we attribute it to Vittorio's service!
My husband and I had a fantastic experience with Vittorio and his team catering our wedding at the Hibernia Bank! Vittorio did a personal tasting with us and helped us figure out a delicious menu without any red meat or pork. Leading up to the event, he promptly communicated updates as planning progressed. His team arrived to the event on time and took care of setting the tables and pouring water, and then helped rearrange the venue during cocktail hour in preparation for dinner. Throughout it all, they were friendly and accommodating as we made a few changes on the fly. Our family and friends loved the food and dessert, and the team helped clean up once the night was done.
I only plan on having one wedding in my life, but I'm hopeful I'll have another big event where I can work with Vittorio again!
For anyone looking to work with Vittorio or another caterer in the future, my one piece of advice: figure out if your venue will require a fire permit for Sterno burners and alert your caterer well ahead of time so they can work that out!
Vittorio was awesome. He had us do a tasting prior to choosing him, was easily reached, followed up with us, and the wedding coordinator also mentioned how great he was to work with. And last, but not least, the food at the wedding was delicious. Multiple guests came up to me to tell me how good the food was (this included all the east coast Italian-Americans). Cannolis were a great dessert! Highly recommend
Vittorio and his team are incredible! We highly recommend booking him for wedding or event catering. He catered our wedding on 6/11 and everything was absolute perfection. My husband and I were blown away by the amazing food during our tasting. We couldn't believe how great everything was and there were so many options. Hands down the best eggplant parm I've ever had! Communication was great - Vittorio was super responsive over email and hopped on the phone whenever we needed to chat. We got nothing but compliments from our guest sharing that the food was incredible and the staff was so friendly. I'm so grateful for Vittorio and his team. We can't wait to visit his restaurant for years to come.
Vittorio is great and I highly recommend him for wedding catering. He offered us food tasting so we can carefully select the items we wanted on our reception buffet. His desserts were all delicious and I’m sure he was surprised that he ran out of food! He was very accommodating in proving one vegan and gluten free dish for one of our guests and they were extremely grateful. Thank you Vittorio for such a lovely evening and can’t wait to stop by your restaurant again for dinner!
(my favorite was the mushroom ravioli!)
Vittorio and his team are amazing! They catered our wedding on 5/6/23 and their service and food was impeccable. We got so many compliments on how amazing the food was and how hard the team was working. Vittorio is incredibly responsive and also proactive in reaching out as we got closer to the date. The tasting process was so fun and we felt like guests in Vittorio's home. He explained everything really well and provided transparent and detailed pricing. I HIGHLY recommend using Vittorio for your catering needs!
You cannot go wrong with choosing Vittorio to cater your wedding. I got more compliments about the food than I did any other part of the wedding lol… it was a hit for all 209 of my guests.
After our original caterer went out of business 2 months before our wedding, we were worried we'd never find a caterer within our budget that had our date free. Lucky for us, we found Trattoria da Vittorio. Vittorio met us for a tasting at his restaurant and immediately put our minds at ease. Aside from the incredible food, Vittorio was exceptionally organized and took so much of the planning out of our hands. Trattoria Da Vittorio handled glassware+flatware rentals, food setup, table settings, etc. He helped us plan a menu for our ~60 guests that accommodated several food allergies and stayed within our budget. We went with the braised short rib, salmon in piccata sauce, homemade fiocchetti, and rigatoni calabrese, with tiramisu for dessert. Everything was incredible. Vittorio put us in the very capable hands of Salvador for the actual wedding day, as he was already catering a larger wedding on the same day. Several of our guests commented on how great the service and food were. We highly recommend booking Trattoria Da Vittorio for any event.
Trattoria da Vittorio catered my wedding this past Saturday 4/15 and I wish could give 10 stars. The food and service are exceptional and everything exceeding my expectations. Vittorio offers the very best in Italian cuisine and met with me multiple times to determine the very best menu for my 250+ wedding meal. From the appetizers, salad, fabulous main course and cannoli tower, I’ll never forget this meal, his kindness and his staffs’ service. Thank you forever!
Vittorio has been the most wonderful vendor to work with. Like family, this experience has been so wonderful. He is very accommodating and innovative in his ideas and menu planning. We put together a menu that made everyone happy and FULL!
Appetizers of a variety of bruschetta, polpette (meatballs), and caprese skewars. The sit down dinner started with beet arugula salad and bread baskets on the tables, followed by a combination dinner plate of beef short rib on creamy polenta, chicken piccata, the creamiest (and HIT) of the plate was homeade fiocchetti pasta--you have to try it-- and perfectly cooked zucchini. In addition to this, Vittorio had vegetarian and gluten free eggplant parmesan option for our guests with dietary preferences. Everyone loved the food and we felt that the one plate made everyone so happy!
To finish the night Vittorio brought out a cannoli tower and coffee bar. His team was exceptional, professional, and carried themselves with smiles all night!
I highly recommend Vittorio and his team for any event. He will work with your vision and make it even better. The Best!
Words alone can not describe how amazing Vito and his team are! Vito went above and beyond every single step of the way as our full service caterer. My wife and I had tons of questions from the very beginning all the way to the day of the wedding about pricing, services, food, rentals, and timing and Vito was more than happy to answer each and every question. From his answers, we could tell he is very experienced when it comes to catering, especially with weddings! One moment that really blew my wife and I away was when Vito called us during our walkthrough with the venue, he called to check in and asked if there was anything he could do to assist or answer any questions during our walkthrough. He remembered the day of our walkthrough and made himself available to us to make sure we felt prepared and supported. We thought that his answers and customer service skills were good but when we finally got a chance to taste his food, we realized his food was even better! All of our guests could not stop raving about his handmade Fiocchetti’s and I am still dreaming about them as I write this review. Vito made sure all of our guests were full and happy and it shows, multiple friends and family members reached out after our wedding to tell us this was some of the best italian food that they’ve had. We loved Vito’s team! His team are the most professional and fun people we’ve had a chance to work with. Vito was also extremely accommodating. My wife and I made a bunch of last minute adjustments the day of due to the weather and his team assisted our coordinator and venue to make sure everything went smoothly. Vito and his team helped us make our wedding into one of our most memorable day and I would not hesitate to hire Vito and his team again for any future events.
Vito and his team were outstanding from start to finish and went above and beyond to make sure all of our needs were met. Vito was excellent at communicating with us and he quickly replied to any questions. He met us at the rental company so we could pick out all linens, chairs, glass and table ware and handled ordering all of the items for us. His food is AMAZING and his price is so reasonable. Multiple guests told us it was the best food they had ever had at a wedding! His staff also served as our bartenders and were so kind and fun. We loved being able to support a local San Francisco restaurant. Highly recommend Vito for your wedding, you will not be disappointed.
HUGE Thank you to Vittorio and his staff for making our wedding day perfect! From start to finish everything was amazing! He was very easy to work with and accommodating during the whole planning process as well. We were happy to hear that our guests loved the food as much as we do! We look forward to working with him again!
Vittorio and his staff are very nice and provided wonderful service. They helped us set up the tables and chairs. They served our cocktail hour, reception, and dance party after wedding. Highly recommended l!
Vitorrio and his amazing team catered my Dad's 70th birthday for 30+ people. He was able to easily walk me through every decision point from food to table settings, even coffee spoons - every detail accounted for.
The fiocchetti was the stand out of the night and he thought to prepare a variety of bruschetta for vegetarians, pescatarians, etc.
His team worked seamlessly during the party to pour drinks, pass apps, start dinner, and transition to dessert.
Could not be happier with this team! We tasted three different caterers and this was by far the best tasting food. The pastas are to die for. Guests went up for seconds and thirds and now three weeks later are still raving about the food! Vittorio was friendly and responsive and helped us coordinate all our rentals (tables, chairs, plates, utensils, etc) since we were at a more DIY venue and the bar/ bartenders. The venue coordinator said that this was the friendliest catering staff he's ever worked with in his 10-year tenure (both with him and amongst the team members!). We did a buffet and Vittorio suggested two buffets to keep the lines running quickly and so nobody was waiting and the food was all hot and delicious. The staff went above and beyond and drove to a local fast food restaurant to pick up our late-night snack and then heated it up back at the venue (like 30 min away!). We could not be more thrilled in our decision of caterer. We will be recommending them to all our friends!!
My husband and I had Vittorio and his team cater our wedding back in June and we were very happy with the experience. The meals were amazing, Vittorio went above and beyond in order for us to have an exceptional experience, and his team was professional. We'd recommend Vittorio to any couple looking for a delicious Italian meal for their event.
We sincerely hope to work with Vittorio and his team again! As a wedding planner, you can only hope to work with fellow vendors as hard working, accommodating, kind, and professional as Trattoria da Vittorio. The food was delicious and the service was above and beyond.
Vittorio created a wonderful atmosphere and experience from start to finish. Professional, understanding, reliable, responsive, kind and flexible. Service as it should be! But something you rarely find anymore these days. Vittorio is the best! We and our guests loved the food, people wanted to know who was catering:) Above and beyond service. Thank you, thank you! Many blessings to you!
Mille grazie
P.S. The dishes were a delight to the eye and the
palate. You have created something very wonderful!
Vittorio and the team will not disappoint. From beginning to end, the service and food was amazing. The care they put into the event was outstanding and offered to help with other details of our wedding including setting up tables.
Vittorio was INCREDIBLE, from first meeting through the wedding cleanup. Kind, friendly, gregarious, he got us in for a tasting the same week we called, gave us a truly spectacular tasting experience, and was flexible, knowledgable, and helpful throughout the whole process. We were having a backyard wedding and were really concerned about good use of space and rentals. Vittorio brought everything we needed, including tables, linens, place settings, chairs for ceremony and reception, bar, etc, set everything up with ample time for us to put decorations up, and broke it all down at the end of the night. Our guests RAVED about how fantastic the food was, and we had leftovers galore (due to folks dropping out last minute) to feed our out of town guests over the following week. Every time we got the least bit anxious Vittorio let us know "its no problem, don't worry about it!", and came through with the action steps so that we truly didn't have to worry about a thing. He even brought my wife a bit of her favorite tiramisu even though we weren't serving dessert other than wedding cake. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!
With great food, great service, and great personality, Trattoria Da Vittorio is everything you want in a wedding caterer. The Trattoria does not just provide a meal that will feed your guests; this charming Italian restaurant provides a meal that will nourish your guests. With homemade pastas, tender meats, fresh vegetables, and delicious sauces, your guests will feel the love with every bite. Isn’t that what you want at your wedding dinner?
In addition to providing great food, Vittorio provides great service. We will always remember the tasting we had at the Trattoria where we met Vittorio and determined the menu for our wedding. Vittorio was quick to respond to phone calls and emails and he was accommodating to last minute changes. On the day of the wedding, everything went perfectly, including transforming the ceremony area to the dining area. Thank you, Vittorio!
Logistically, the Trattoria is a good choice because it provides delicious options that will please vegetarians, meat-eaters, and those with gluten intolerance. The total price of everything was also a great value – it probably cannot be beat. Rentals (tables, tablecloths, plates, silverware) are also included, which really helps simplify things.
Our guests loved the meal and the staff. People went back for seconds and thirds. People said it was the best wedding dinner they ever had. We highly recommend this vendor. Trattoria Da Vittorio provided an authentic Italian dinner that satisfied our guests as well as an experience that will be cherished and remembered.
My now husband and I had Vittorio cater our wedding of almost 300 people this past Saturday and it could not have been more perfect. Vittorio went above and beyond to accommodate all of our needs and was extremely professional and attentive. The food was incredible (just like at his restaurant) and all of our guests can't stop talking about how much they loved it. He also provided all of the linen rentals and set up our tables beautifully. I wish I could give Vittorio more than 5 stars, he is truly the best! Now all of our guests can't wait to go to his restaurant and it is truly one of our favorites; we will be going here for years to come!
Vittorio worked really hard to make our day perfect - the food was fantastic, everybody raved about a different dish which goes to show they were all top notch. Our tasting at his restaurant really made us feel like he cared, and we decided right away that he was the caterer we wanted to go with. The serving staff were friendly and took care of everything without a hitch.
Vittorio was amazing! He was fantastic from the first time we met. The food was spectacular. It was the talk of our wedding and guests could not get enough. Vittorio was great to work with. He was super responsive, answered all my questions and was easy to work with and communicate with. 10/10 recommend if you are looking for food to blow your guests away. Hire him!
Absolutely amazing!! If I could give more than five stars I would! When looking for a caterer for my wedding I was not expecting such incredible service that went above and beyond. Vittorio was so hands-on, kind, hard-working, and the food was and I quote from many guests “the best wedding food they have ever had“. His staff was so amazing, the bartenders even fixed my dress when the bustle broke. If you are looking for a caterer for anything, I highly highly recommend Vittorio!
Our wedding couldn’t have been pulled off without Vittorio and his team!! We were invited for our free tasting at his restaurant and he was so cordial and the food was great!! He had experience with our venue (the Sunnyside Conservatory) so we were able to sketch out a rough setting then and there. The day of - Vittorio and his team were early and ready to start setting up! This was a diy wedding and the family was kind of all over the place but Vittorio was flexible and patient when he and team were asked to move tables several times. They helped set up the ceremony and then flip the space for the reception, served for our buffet, cleared tables, helped clean up AND took all our trash. I’m so so happy with how everything turned out with the linens and napkins that I was able to choose via a FaceTime with Vittorio while he was at the rental place. We got several compliments on the food and service from our guests!! We can’t wait to go back to Vittorio’s restaurant and relive the dishes that will forever be a part of our memory on our wedding. Vittorio even brought ice and went back to the restaurant to get a cake knife when we had forgotten it - doh (thankfully the restaurant was less than 10min away but still such a high touch gesture/service). There was enough food for our guests to get seconds and Vittorio also boxed up all our leftovers which we took and were able to enjoy the next day - delicious! I would definitely recommend Trattoria da Vittorio for any wedding!! They are professionals through and through :)
I wish I could give 100 million stars to this review!! In the beginning of planning our wedding we were getting overwhelmed about who to have as our caterer. We kept looking and found Trattorio da Vittorio and were so happy we did. Once we inquired he got back to us right away!! The owner himself invited us to his restaurant to have a free tasting of food and wine. Even on a busy Friday night at his restaurant, he sat with us and discussed everything he could do to make this day happen and make it special for us. The food was absolutely delicious that night we were so happy to have agreed to have this restaurant as our caterer, the owner made us feel very at ease. On the day of the wedding, the catering staff was so absolutely helpful with setting up the tables, chairs, linens, food. My now husband and I were so hungry before the reception they were so kind to make us a plate of appetizers so we could eat in the car! Ill never forget that! The food was as delicious and fresh the day of the wedding like it was the night of the tasting in the restaurant. We decided on short ribs with vegetables and mashed potatoes, stuffed pasta with white sauce and pasta with red sauce. EVERYTHING WAS OUTSTANDING!!! The short ribs were so tender and juicy and everything else was full of flavor. Even bread on each table! Our guests from our wedding are still talking about how magnificent the food was. I would like to thank Vittorio and his staff for helping us with so much on our special day. You guys were so great. If you are thinking about going with them, I would think no further! You will not regret it!!!
Our wedding was the best thanks to the services of Chef Vito!
From the onset when my wife and I began our journey of searching for the right food to have served at our wedding we knew this would be a tall order. We initially had a caterer in mind however and in that respect we were glad it happened that way. We decided to test the waters with Yelp so we sent out a request for pricing and availability. We received many responses from our inquiry. Of all the replies we received Vittorio D’Urzo, or Chef Vito as we like to call him, responded to us. He quickly welcomed us to reach out to him. He introduced himself and personally sent his cell phone number to have a conversation. Our initial conversation was so pleasant. He let us know that anything we needed he would love to accommodate us to make sure our special day was properly handled. We knew from the moment we spoke to Chef we knew we had to have this person.
Chef Vito owns a restaurant in San Francisco, Trattoria de Vittoria, located in the West Portal neighborhood. He invited us to his restaurant to have a tasting session that same week. We were so delighted we could not wait to go and meet him in person. When we arrived he knew immediately who we were. He and his staff were so accommodating. We were treated like family. All the food we were served was nothing short of mouthwatering. The traditional, hearty Italian dishes we feasted on was in a category all in its own. Every dish is carefully handmade. If you never had homemade Italian food then you are in for a treat. We were so intrigued by the dishes he served that we chose to go with almost all the options. He took time to get to know us and crafted a menu that would work for us.
When the day came Vito and his staff arrived and when we saw how everything was setup for the first time we were beyond impressed! My goodness words could not describe the time and effort that went into how everything was prepared for our guests. Chef Vito was very accommodating in every way. He served us at the sweetheart table and always made sure to see if we were okay and needed anything. His staff were very courteous, professional, and attentive to our guests needs. We had a variety of food as it was a buffet style dinner service.
Our guests have been raving about the food and service. That is all we could have ever asked for! A note about his restaurant, it is a place of welcome! His restaurant has been featured on Check, Please! Bay Area (KQED) which is a food lovers television show. Anytime we visit San Francisco we make it a point to drive over to visit his establishment. His staff never forgets who you are. They are all very accommodating. They in many ways are an extension of Chef Vito, warm and friendly. His restaurant is always clean and well kept. If you are ever on the fence about what food you want to have catered, he will have you try other dishes to see what is acceptable. After all he wants to make sure that your big day is the best!
If you want your guests to walk away from your event or big day satisfied with what they had for food that day, then please look no further. You will get friendly, professional, and honest service in Vittorio. He is a classy, down to earth individual and you want to have people like that helping with any event. We were blessed and honored to work with Chef Vito and when the opportunity arises, we will acquire his services again!
Chef Vito will go above and beyond for you!!!
Vittorio was amazing to work with. We had a large event with over 130 people in San Francisco. His staff managed everything to perfection. The food was just as great as we had tasted in his restaurant and we’ve received so many compliments on the food. He helped with rentals and other items we had not planned for. He even connected us with vendors for other items we needed. Would highly recommend him
Vittorio was an amazing part of our vendor team for our wedding! My partner and I met him before the pandemic as we started planning our wedding. He worked closely with us through lockdown, into the final days before our event, and was flexible and supportive of all the changes that happened due to Covid 19 protocols. His staff was professional and helpful, and they communicated well with us and our coordinator. Not to mention that the food was delicious! We loved it and so did our guests. I would highly recommend Vittorio for any event!
Vittorio and team were amazing. Our foodie guests loved everything, especially the gluten-free eggplant parmesan, truffle ravioli, stuffed zucchini flowers, and tiramisu. We have hosted many business and social events (we're in the food business), and this may have been the smoothest and most delightful service we're ever had. Once you meet Vittorio for a tasting, you'll know what we mean.
Response from the Vendor on 07/03/2021
Thank you very much for your kind words, I really appreciate your love and support
We had our wedding catered by Vitorrio and his staff. Vitorrio was very warm and welcoming from my first call. He was very accommodating with our schedule and helped us a lot with planning. He’s also very receptive to calls and emails which is very appreciated.
We hosted our reception in an outdoor venue and Vitorrio was very helpful during the floor planning stages and worked well with our coordinator. He arranged for our rentals which greatly helped with minimizing the amount of vendors we needed.
The night of the event, setup of the venue was coordinated between Vitorrio and his team as well as our coordinator. Everything was set perfectly and service went smoothly!
Vitorrio and his team were very professional and the food was amazing! We would definitely recommend his service!
Response from the Vendor on 06/08/2021
Thank you very much I really appreciate it
Vittorio and his staff did a fabulous job on our event for 250 people. Great food and service, and most importantly, you don't have to worry about Vittorio doing exactly what he promises!
Vittorio catered my daughter's Bat Mitzvah and I couldn't thank him more. With all the things you need to worry about when planning a Bat Mitzvah, he took care of the food and so much more. Originally we hired him to cater the dinner but when he found out I was looking for a caterer for the luncheon at the temple, he took on the task of catering a full Jewish feast. AND when it came to the night of, he acted as our event coordinator and handled all the other vendors so we didn't have to. We got so many compliments on the food for both the luncheon and the dinner. He and his staffed ordered and picked up all the silverware and linens, set everything up, manned the food and the bar all night, took care of the guests refilling water/wine, and cleaned everything up. We all know how good his food is from the restaurant but he can also take care of an event with 125+ guests. Highly recommended! I'd give him 6 stars if I could. Thank for for making our daughter's Bat Mitzvah so special.
