Farm to Table Catering

Wow! Picking these two for my wedding was one of the best decisions I made. They are more than caterers, Jennifer took such good care of me and my event. She uses her knowledge and expertise to assist in rentals, timing, volume, all the things I know nothing about! The food was tasty and everything we wanted. It is truly the service and the experience working with FTC that drives me to share with you on Unilocal.I can not thank them enough for being a vendor I never had to worry about. Thank You!!!

Chef Carlos and Jennifer at Farm to Table are the best!~
We had our daughters wedding at the Miners Foundry for 100 guests. Food was gourmet served table side — like it was made to order for each table. Fresh, local foods– made our daughters destination wedding in Nevada City unforgettable!!~
From the bar to the hors’d’ouevers everything was more than perfect.

Where do I even begin? Jennifer and Carlos came highly recommended from a friend. I got in contact with them and was excited that they could proved their services all the way down in Sacramento. I set up a tasting with my husband, maid of honor and myself. Jennifer is just so sweet and knowledgable! Carlos is the most amazing chef. We tasted a flat iron skirt steak, polenta cakes, seasonal veggies. I actually stole my husbands food it was that delicious and so fresh. They worked with us on our budget. Jennifer worked directly with my venue and met with me a couple of times to make sure my wedding was awful nicely and that all of the décor jived. I was so grateful to have her help there because I really had no idea what I was doing. These two always amazed to exceed our expectation with their food and service. The day of the wedding, I was floored the presentation of the food was just gorgeous. Not to mention it was completely mouth wateringly delicious! My little picky eater didn’t want steak so Carlos made her buttered Parmesan noodles. So thoughtful! I honestly can’t say enough about these two. My guests still rave about the food months later. I was seriously sad that the wedding would be over and I wouldn’t get to work with them anymore. If you are looking for outstanding food and exceptional service, give these folks a ring. They will not disappoint you. Well you will be disappointed, if you choose another caterer.

Jennifer & Chef Carlos catered our annual Christmas Party last week. Their attention to every detail was stupendous! We have used caterers before and never have we had such fresh, gourmet, beautiful food! Presentation was outstanding and appetizers plus dinner was fabulous. Servers were very friendly and efficient. We just can’t say enough good things about this pair. We will definitely be using then for all of our functions in the future.

Jen and Carlos are beyond the best. I needed an emergency last minute event for over 500 people. They are so organized and professional I didn’t need to worry about a thing, they handled everything. When Chief Carlos finished cooking the meal (and plating elegantly for our guests) he came out to meet and greet our friends and family. I can’t even begin to imagine the work required to put such an amazing event together on short notice. They met with us before hand to get a feel for what we wanted and then Jen and Carlos worked their magic. Perfect beyond all expectations. The site they recommended, Minors Foundry, combined with Jen’s eye for details was rustically elegant. Our guests could not stop talking about how perfect everything was. Thank you so much, see you at both our children’s weddings (in about 10 years!)

Farm to Table Catering catered our early August wedding in Nevada City with beauty and grace supplying crazy delicious food worthy of top honors. We started working with them months in advance, Jen helped us make sure we had everything dialed, ordered, and organized ahead of time; so that on our wedding day, it was easy for them and the other vendors to do their jobs. Carlos’ astute knowledge of the local farms and seasonal produce helped us choose the freshest menu choices for early August which were also appropriate for the warmer weather conditions. I could not see how anyone could have delivered better service and yummier food.
Jen and Carlos are rock star caterers! Its a real blessing to have them in the Grass Valley /​Nevada City area.

Awesome food, service, and amazing staff!!! We had the joy of working with F2T catering over the past 6 months as we planned our wedding for the end of September. Carlos created a beautiful menu following our Mexican themed reception using locally raised produce and ingredients and utilizing some of my mother-in-law’s recipes for guacamole and beans:). Jennifer was absolutely amazing and went above and beyond to help organize our rentals, staffing, and coordination for our wedding day. They were incredibly organized, efficient, and helpful throughout the entire planning process. On the day of their staff did a great jobs aging our large party of over 250 people with ease and grace from set up at 1 pm through cake service and finally cleaning up and tearing down the rentals at the end of the night in the rain. I highly recommend Farm to Table catering for any and all events:)!!! Thank you Jennifer and Carlos and your entire staff !!! Xo

We had a family wedding at my mother-in-law’s house in Nevada City on 8÷23÷14. We used Jennifer and Carlos for the catering. I (along with the bride and groom) live out of the area so all the planning was done via email. From the first message I sent asking about their availability, the experience was nothing but fabulous. Jennifer was very prompt with every reply she sent, even sending some messages while she was on vacation. She was also super helpful — from menu planning, to helping us calculate how much wine/​beer we’d need. Like another reviewer said, it was like working with a close friend. She made all the planning fun and easy. When it came time for the wedding, she and Carlos were AWESOME. She handled every last detail so that the bride and groom were able to thoroughly enjoy their special day. So professional and SO NICE. And, the food was to die for. Everything was perfect! I would highly recommend Jennifer and Carlos and only wish I lived closer so I could have a party just so I could hire them again!

We had Farm to Table cater our back yard wedding/​family reunion in the Sierra Nevada Mountains outside of Nevada City. It was organized on short notice (6 weeks) and Jennifer and Carlos were instrumental in making it happen. Jennifer was extremely helpful from recommending a menu to getting everything rented for the event. We followed her suggestions and were very happy with the outcome. We had guests with special dietary needs and Carlos provided tasty options for everyone. Jennifer has a very calming way about her that put me at ease and took the stress out of the day. Thank You Jennifer and Carlos. I highly recommend them for any event.

We hired Farm to Table on short notice to cater our July wedding after our first caterer didn’t work out. What a blessing this turned out to be! Jen and Carlos were wonderful from the very first tasting. I can honestly say I do not know how on earth we would have pulled our wedding off without these two wonderful people. They are incredibly professional and on point, yet also friendly and fun to work with, it was almost like having your best friends help to plan and cater your wedding. They both genuinely cared about how our wedding went and it showed.
Carlos’ food is amazing — choosing a menu was so difficult because he nailed everything. Jen was always organized, filled with great ideas and rather than trying to up-​sell us, respected our budget and even brainstormed ways to cut costs. The day of, everything went off perfectly! Their staff was on the ball, incredibly friendly, and went out of their way to please guests. The food was served on time, warm and delicious — cleanup was incredibly thorough as promised. You really can’t beat Farm To Table Catering — wedding guests are still talking about the food one month later! We are waiting for an excuse to use their services again — can’t recommend them enough!

I went to a friend’s birthday party that was catered by these guys. They were fantastic. The food was excellent, especially the salmon, maybe the best I’ve ever had. Everyone was raving about it all night.
They were professional and had everything covered so the birthday girl was relaxed and had a great time. I really liked them. I feel like they’re just good people in general and were nice to have at the party.
I highly recommend hiring them and I’ll keep my fingers crossed that I get to enjoy them again at the next event I go to.

Jennifer & Chef Carlos are the BEST! We met them when I booked a tasting back in February for our May 23^rd wedding. We knew we wanted delicious food that was local and seasonal and so they were PERFECT!
Jennifer is very responsive, informative and personable. She emails, calls and texts right away. She provides you with all their menus and pricing (no hidden fees). I am especially happy that we included the set-​up & clean-​up service to our contract. She booked our rentals, had them delivered and paid them. She even visited our venue with us and went over set-​up & service for the day of. This was especially helpful since we live out of town. She was like a caterer/​planner all in one. Everyone was so complimentary of how beautiful our wedding was and Jennifer’s coordination played a HUGE part in that.
Now let me talk about the food… I have a bunch of foodie friends and family so it was IMPERATIVE that we have delicious food. I have to say that Chef Carlos went above and beyond our expectations. One of my friends at the rehearsal dinner told me how excited she was for the food the next day since the rehearsal dinner was so delicious. Everyone loved it, even the kids! As for the dinner on our wedding day, everything was cooked to PERFECTION! It was so good my friends were texting me about it the next day.
Seriously, they are a GEM! If you have an event in their area, search no further. You will not find better food or better people to work with. I look forward to working with them again :)

I hired Farm to Table Catering for my wedding June/​2014.
From the initial consultation to the final dollop of whipped cream, I had a fantastic experience. The menu to choose from was great, and Carlos was willing to work with my ideas as well. Our tasting was so much fun and every question, comment, suggestion from my husband and I was listened to and addressed.
Carlos’ plate presentation is sophisticated. I wanted my family & friends to have a 5 star experience. Carlos & his team delivered an off the chart experience… And btw, our wine glasses were never empty. :)
Communication was easy, pricing was straight forward, and the service was exceptional. Exceptional. My kitchen is under construction and was not the easiest to work in, but they made it happen with happy attitudes.
I will hire them to cater again. I recommend booking them as soon as you know your event date.

I have been to a couple events that Farm to Table has catered. They provide creative, tasty and attractive choices — made with the finest of ingredients. Roasted beet and herbed ricotta bruschetta = heaven! They will even deliver healthy, delicious meals to your door so you don’t have; the perfect gift for someone who is home bound. Chef Carlos is bringing some new and welcome life to the local catering scene.

I have attended a number of events catered by Chef Carlos and they have been outstanding. He uses the freshest ingredients which adds to the wonderful flavors, especially his Wine Dinners. I would strongly suggest that you attend one or better yet, have him do one for you and your friends.

Have had a chance to sample Farm To Table Catering food on several occasions as they have catered some of my company’s events. The food is absolutely fantastic.
Chef Carlos and his team put out a nice spread and the service is top notch. They make tri tip that is fantastic. Chicken Pesto sandwich that is addictive. I’ve had several meals with them and all of it was great. Especially the desserts.
