Preferred Sonoma Caterers 
Rating: 5.0 (4 reviews)
  • Starts at $5,000
  • Serves San Rafael, CA

Hi, Zola is not our platform; please contact us directly by searching for our website. Thanks! Preferred Sonoma Caterers was founded by Owner/Chef Amber Balshaw and her husband Jim over 25 years ago. Amber’s love of cooking always keeps her excited about food, and that excitement keeps her menus fresh and innovative. Amber has seen trends in food and design come and go (and sometimes come again) over her years planning weddings and other events. She loves to help couples brainstorm new ideas and knows how an event should flow to get everything just right.

We booked with PSC because when we did our tasting we talked to Amber. She told us that she knew the farmers who were growing the vegetables that they were using in their dishes. The food was great with several options. They were easy to work with when it came to the specifics I wanted. The food was even better at the wedding than I remembered at the tasting. The garnishes and details were beautiful and elegant. All my guest commented on how good the food was. Thank you PSC staff for everything!

Sally Tomatoes

  • Serves San Rafael, CA

Gerard and Bill, had already been working together in the restaurant industry for more than 15 years when they decided to go into business together. They wanted to create a restaurant with all the best attributes of their previous experiences, one where they could focus on making a difference to people in their biggest life moments and a stronger focus on community service and philanthropy. In 2007 they moved in to the green community of SOMO Village, taking over the enormous kitchen to support catering orders and then seizing an opportunity to use the adjoining space for a restaurant.

This was the perfect wedding venue for us!! They helped take so much stress off of the day and made me feel so comfortable going into my wedding day. They answered every question I had, no matter how small & minor it was. The day of went so smoothly because they helped with so much! They set everything and catered it with such good food. I’ve recommended them to almost everybody who needs an event space for any type of event.

El Coqui has been bringing the flavors of Puerto Rico to Sonoma County Since 2009. Jackie was born in the Bronx and raised in Queens NY by her Grandmother who would take her back to Puerto Rico every summer. El Coqui has been recognized by the Press Democrat and the North Bay Bohemian as "Best Latin Restaurant" in Sonoma County year after year. We were featured on Food Network, Check Please Bay Area and won the Gold Medal at the Sonoma County Harvest Fair.

El Coqui catered our wedding and Jackie and Tina were beyond professional and helpful through every step of the way, from the tasting up to the big day. I sincerely appreciated how much they went above and beyond the call of duty with their kindness. The food was amazing, we received lots of "best food at a wedding ever" compliments, and as a bonus, we had a lot of wonderful leftovers for the rest of the week.

YOOSHI SUSHI CATERING & EVENT PRODUCTION 
Rating: 5.0 (8 reviews)
  • Serves San Rafael, CA

I had my first shot at managing a sushi restaurant when I took over an empty section of the family restaurant and introduced sushi to my customers. It was a challenge that I will never regret accepting. It was fun, a lot of fun! I had the opportunity to work with some really talented and creative chefs. I quickly learned that it’s not just about having fresh fish anymore. Sushi dining has transformed into a culture. A culture built by imagination and creativity. With the help of GD and the support of my family, I took all that experience and fused it with my imagination and created Yooshi Sushi Catering and Event Production.
