The food is UNREAL. We catered from here for our wedding reception and everyone raved about the food. It was so delicious and flavorful. Nick was awesome to work with. We told him what we wanted and he gave his recommendations and they were perfect. We did buffet style and the staff was wonderful. I highly recommend Nick and Sausalido.

Worked with Sausalido for our November 13th wedding and very pleased with our experience. Our wedding planner recommended Sausalido as they have worked with Nick and team many times. We started working with Chef Nick in 2019 (We were a Covid Couple who had to reschedule our September 2020 wedding to November 2021) and from the start we were impressed by how helpful, personable and honest he was with helping us figure out our food. When we had our tasting with our wedding planner, Nick was right there talking with us about what he thought would best for our event and what would give us the most bang for our buck. He really aims to give quality food within the budget for wedding couples which we really appreciated. We even had to end up switching our buffest/sit down dinner to a cocktail style reception due to our venue size and guest count at the recommendation of our planner, and Nick also agreed, but broke it down to us that it was the best way to serve our guests. He was able to change the menu we had picked to function with a cocktail reception and everything turned out just PERFECT! We actually really ended up liking this style dinner more than a sit down. Day of, the staff worked very well with getting passed food past to our guests and keeping the food stations stocked all night Food presentation was good, SOO delicious and great quality. We received lots of compliments on the meatballs and of course his famous bowtie pasta. The food really helped make the day we waited for so long just perfect! I'd recommend Sausalido catering for any size event you are looking to hold.

I went for a patty and it was beautiful food and beautiful service

We hired Sausalido to cater our wedding, and the catering was a colossal train wreck. Based on our experience, we would recommend against hiring Sausalido to do any catering for any function. Even though the owner refunded us $1000 at our wedding in an effort to, as he put it, “make it right,” Sausalido’s catering service was so objectively awful that the $1000 refund hardly made anything right. First, they were late showing up and they were late with the food. We had to delay our wedding nearly an hour because even when they did show up, they did not have the food for dinner. (We were assured that they would show up two hours before the wedding, but this definitely did not happen.) Second, they did not have any chafing dishes for the food (when they eventually brought food). The servers simply threw trays on tables, had no way of keeping those trays warm, and made no effort to present the food in an attractive way that you would expect at a wedding. Third, the food was way below the quality that we were served at our tasting. Fourth, and perhaps most importantly, we paid for 125 people to eat. We only had 115 people attending. SAUSALIDO RAN OUT OF FOOD FOR OUR GUESTS! We had three tables who had to wait hours to eat because there was no food left. After several phone calls with the owner, he finally sent over more food from an event down the street. However, the initial batch of emergency food that he sent amounted to grapes, cheese, and a half-eaten tray of fish. It was pathetic. It took more phone calls to the owner before he personally showed up with more food. He kept telling us that he was “sending elevated stuff.” Whatever it was, it was leftover, and it was not what we ordered to be served at our wedding. By that point, we had directed our wedding coordinator to order pizza.The service that we received from Sausalido was abysmal, unprofessional, and downright disrespectful. We had friends, family, and co-workers at our wedding who weren’t able to eat for hours because Sausalido failed to deliver on our order. At the wedding, the owner/chef kept telling us “I’m sorry. I don’t know how this happened.” If the owner/chef of the business isn’t able to understand how/why he messed up so terribly, then you probably shouldn’t trust him to cater for you.

Ordered food from here about two weeks I had food catered placed my order then the day of delivery the guy tells me he can’t do what I asked for. He promised that the different meal he was providing would be excellent. The food ended up being good. I feel he is over priced and the portions are small. After talking to other people that ordered there as well. These people Described my food options I got and I didn’t even tell them what I had to eat. So apparently this place does this a lot.I would not recommend.

Love PF Chang's. We celebrated my friend's birthday and they provided the great service and unique food options that allowed us to come together as a group that did not all know each other. The round booths and sharing of appetizers like those fricken delicious chicken lettuce wraps and edamame. Our waitress was fun and collaborative and they did everything they could to help us enjoy our evening together. Plus they gave the birthday boy this free delicious banana crepe dessert.

Cool location with beautiful decor inside. Very friendly and professional staff. The food was delicious, too!

I knew I wanted Chef Nick and the Sausalido team to cater our wedding as soon as we left our tasting. Chef Nick is so talented and kind. Not only does all of the food look beautiful, everything taste amazing. Our guests all commented on how great the food was at our wedding. My husband and I are beyond thankful to Sausalido for providing fantastic food and service to our guests on such a special day. Highly recommend using Sausalido for all your catering needs!

We recently used Sausalido to cater 110 people for a funeral wake, and the food was absolutely amazing! They were wonderful to work with and the staff did a fantastic job serving and cleaning up afterwards. Would definitely use them again for any needs in the future.
