Erika Tauriello Professional Catering

We were married at Bargetto this month and Erika catered our event. She was prompt in answering emails, super friendly and zero hassle. Her menus had plenty to choose from with reasonable prices. She made us some samples for tasting when I was in town. All the food was delicious – it wasn’t over salted or over sauced or over done. It was all cooked to perfection and delicious. She arrived early for set up and everything went off without a hitch. I really wanted to have someone local for all my vendors. Guests went back for seconds and thirds even. Great lady and great food! Thanks Erika!

Erika was hands down the best money we spent for our wedding. We got married at Highlands Park in July and she was just wonderful. Her food was amazing (most of our guests went back for seconds!) and staff were very friendly and professional. But what truly stood out to me was how helpful, organized and willing to go above and beyond she was. She gave me and my husband piece of mind and was just phenomenal. I cannot even say enough good things about her!

Erika catered our wedding at Bargetto Winery back in June and we are still receiving compliments from friends and family about how good the food was! She was super easy to work with, and was very up front about prices (including all those sneaky hidden costs) which we really appreciated. She was a little hard to get a hold of when I first tried contacting her but I’d say she was totally worth the wait and I would highly recommend her services!

Erika catered our family reunion this past weekend at Pajaro Dunes and it was delicious! The chicken breasts were cooked perfectly and literally melted in my mouth. Erika is so nice too! Because the children outnumbered the adults at this occasion spaghetti was the perfect dish for them. Her sauce was so tasty.

Wow, what can I say to express my wife and I’s complete satisfaction with Erika and the excellent job she did catering the Vow Renewal ceremony my wife and I had at Bargetto winery. From the moment we met Erika at an event held at Bargettos we clicked. She has a way about her that puts you at ease, you can’t help but like her. My wife and I had interviewed several caterers and had left each appointment kind of dissatisfied, not really comfortable with anyone. Exactly the opposite with Erika! All throughout the reception dinner, my family and friends approached me and told me how excellent the food was. Erika is very easygoing, willing to work with what you want, and the staff she brought was attentive to everyone’s needs.

I’m sorry that it has taken me so long to write this review. Our daughter was married this summer at Holy Cross Church in Santa Cruz, and for most of our guests it was a destination wedding. The reception was at The Hollins House at Pasatiempo and we had the Rehearsal Dinner at Bargetto Winery.
Erika catered three different events for our combined families.
First we had an casual dinner at our house for approximately 25 people and Erika did the catering for that. We had a Italian theme and all of the food was wonderful.
The following day, we had the rehearsal dinner for about 80 people. All of the guests were invited and she did an amazing job of providing a terrific meal for a large party of guests.
Finally, on the morning after the wedding, the Groom’s parents held a brunch at the house they were renting and Erika provided all of the food for that event and again I would say we had around 80 people attending.
Erika is wonderful to work with. Her food is absolutely amazing, and make sure you order her pecan turtle bars and truffles for dessert.
