Parsley Sage Rosemary & Thyme

We had PSRT cater for our daughter’s graduation party. I for one have always shunned food trucks but our daughter convinced us that it was the «in thing». My wife worked with Cary Morgan and had a very pleasant experience. Cary was always responsive and very flexible. We were particular about vegetarian food and wanted some mixing and matching and Cary obliged. For all that, Cary was working remotely! My wife was convinced it was the right thing to do after working with her. I was still skeptical until yesterday, the day of the event. Francesca was the Manager that put us at ease. Along with Ryan and the rest of the team, it was a very nice experience. They willingly obliged all the guests’ special requests and served them all with a pleasant smile. Since they took care of ensuring all the guests were well cared for, they made rounds to clean up and in a nutshell, made sure my family could enjoy time with the guests instead of worrying about the details. It was not such an easy task given there were close to 100 guests! Many of the guests liked the idea and loved the variety of offers and have vowed to contact them when they throw a party. Thank you Francesca and team!
The price was a bit steep but in retrospect, it was well worth it. The only suggestion I have for them is to have more copies of the menu posted away from the truck to post the menu so it doesn’t get crowded near the truck.

PSRT — made my life so much easier. I needed a catering & event fast. They were recommend to me by our corp. planners. Outstanding job. Just the right amount of help when needed. They were very easy to work with and did everything as per my request and then some. Overall I would use them again. Food was perfect. Our diversity makes us great, it can become very problematic when it comes to food. No worries PSRT took care of everything. PSRT took a lot of the hassle out of my event.

This is mainly a food /​attended-​an-​event-​that-​they-​catered review.
This company catered a rooftop event earlier this month. They set up a bunch of tables with chairs, plus standing tables. There were some tables with parasols, and other areas were covered by natural shading that was present.
I was most interested in the food, which was available at no cost thanks to someone else footing the bill. There was a nice salad with a not-​too-​sweet dressing, two paella options for vegetarians and normal folks, and an interesting bread salad. Vince, the chef, was nice enough to talk to me about how it was inspired by the Italian panzanella but was based on the flavors of a Spanish gazpacho instead.
Anyway, I enjoyed all the food and wouldn’t mind eating any of it again.

Ive not had their catering but I’ve tried the majority of their food truck businesses at this point. Even though I had an uneven experience with Pacific Coast, I really liked the Lousiana Territory and had a decent experience with No Way Jose. I like that one outfit is bringing different types of cuisines to the masses. I hope they keep on coming up with tasty concepts.

Now, when it comes to planning a wedding, NOTHING is going to go off without a hitch during the planning process. But if you surround yourself with great vendors who know what they’re doing and know how to react and respond when things get tricky (because believe me, they absolutely will during the weeks leading up to the wedding), you’re going to have a wedding day that goes off without a hitch. Fail to plan = plan to fail.
Now, on behalf of my husband and I, I just wanted to take a moment to say thank you so very much for everything PSRT did for our wedding, particularly Cheryl who was my point person. I truly appreciated you and your staff more than you’ll know and I thought everything was just absolutely perfect. I felt that your staff was so very attentive, kind, and professional; there were times I needed something and they RAN to get it, without hesitation. You all made our wedding absolutely perfect. So many of our guests told us that the food was the best they’d ever had. Thank you again!

After reading many reviews, tasting PSRT bites at a few Unilocal events and calling a few caterers, we decided to have PSRT cater our one year anniversary party.
–1 star for not being able to taste what we wanted to serve.
One suggestion – have a monthly «tasting» event where people can come and try the different sides and entrees before making a decision. Have it at one of the venues that recommends you to their customers.
That said, working with PSRT was pretty great. Our event manager was amiable and professional and gave some good inputs. We met once to decide on table layout, colors and setup on site. After that, I liked the convenience of phone and emails.
We chose some very tasty items for our menu, but I must say the Chicken Paella cooked from scratch in front of you was the highlight of dinner. Both entertaining and delicious with tons of leftovers – it was so worth the money and made our party a real hit.
I would definitely have these people cater another party in the future.

Looks like a lovely business based on the website and Unilocal.Called to inquire about services. Left a voicemail about two weeks ago… no one called me back. No services were rendered.

I am finally getting around to writing our review of wedding services. PSRT was one of the first caterers we worked with. I saw all of the fabulous reviews on Unilocal and was sold. What I liked most about PSRT was their ability to handle a remote venue (county park) with their remote kitchen setup. I was frustrated that we were not allowed to taste prior to putting down a deposit. Planning a wedding is stressful enough without having a tasting prior. We were wiling, and offered to pay or the tasting first. Unfortunately, it was not their policy. They will return the money if you cancel by 6 months prior, but we were 5 months from the wedding.. I had feedback from a friend who knows their work from fundraisers, and said it was just average, but we were assured by PSRT that it was due to budgetary constraints of nonprofits to keep costs down (which impacted quality). Besides, I loved the organizational skills of the coordinator, Heather, and really wanted someone who could manage a remote venue. We had budget. So, we took a leap of faith and hired them.
Once we put a deposit down, we were invited to the owners home for a tasting. She was very gracious and enjoyable to be around. The staff service at her house was amazing. Unfortunately, the food was just average to slightly below. Some dishes too salty, some lacked flavor. We are foodies and food is very important to us. I went home and mulled it over, and followed up with an email to the owner. She agreed that the tasting wasn’t their best work and invited us to an event they were hosting. Again Heather was there, very organized and helpful. The food again was just average at best. We wanted more than average, we wanted memorable for our wedding. So, we discussed with Heather who spoke with the owner and they agreed to let us out of the contract, which was very nice. We did give them some money as we felt we had tasted and it was only fair. If only we could have paid for a tasting ahead of time we would have eliminated quite a bit of stress.
I think reviews need to be taken with a grain of salt, and everyone’s palate is unique, but if you like 4 star and Michelin rated restaurants as well as super yummy holes in the wall, the food will disappoint. If you really care about service and organization, and not so much about the food being exceptional, PSRT might be for you. I don’t give 3-​star here because it says A-​ok and the food wasn’t average. The service and coordination was above average from what we could see at the event we went to.
We ended up with Le Papillon (see review). The best choice we could have made for our palate.

I work for a University as an event planner and donor stewardship coordinator. We have been using PSRT for our premier donor events for the past 3 years and they continue to go above and beyond their contractual agreements.
Anybody who does event planning will tell you, problems happen. Issues will occur, but what matters is how you react to them. PSRT and their staff were flexible when last minute changes to the contract were needed, and they were more than professional during the event. They brought glassware just in case some was not provided by the venue and of course, we ended up needing it. It is this type of fore site that makes a professional catering service worth the money.

PSRT catered our backyard wedding in Saratoga in early august. They did a wonderful job, and EVERYONE raved about the food, cocktails, and the great staff.
Our original coordinator, Chelsea, left PSRT about 1 ½ months before our wedding. We were nervous, but Christina stepped in and knocked it out of the park. We had a complicated tapas-​style menu with tons of items and particular pacing requests. The staff was very attentive to the flow of the dinner and they were hardly noticed! A few details that we had worked out with our original coordinator slipped through the cracks (minor menu details), but it didn’t matter – it was great!
We had a carrot soup that was honestly the best soup I’ve ever had, and a caramelized pear crostini appetizer that everyone loved.
Overall, from start to finish PSRT was organized, easy to work with, and paid attention to all of the details that were very important to us. The food was fantastic, but more importantly they helped create a warm and intimate vibe that made our wedding truly magical.

Meghan and PRST has been more than excellent for us thus far. Our wedding is in June 2011 and Meghan has been extremely helpful. Our first meeting was at our local coffee shop. She let us pick where we can meet her. She was totally pregnant and cute. We had a pretty good idea of what kind of food we wanted for our dinner but she had such awesome recommendations as well. Meghan is totally personable and is always prompt with emails. That’s definitely a plus for me because I hate it when I’m waiting for an email reply for more than a day.
The food tasting night was awesome. Since we booked early and their San Jose location was under construction, we were invited to the owner’s house for dinner!!! Which was super amazing. We had our own dinner trial with Meghan and the owner. The food was really excellent so we were relieved because we already put down the deposit. We even had our own waiter who works with PRST full-​time.
I could not find a cake person for the longest time so Meghan gave me tons of recommendations too! She knows the business and who is the best in town for sure.
I can’t wait to write a review AFTER the wedding;)

There’s no skimping on quality or service with PSRT!
We have had the pleasure of working with Debbie, Vince, and Christina on many occasions in the past 2 ½ years and only have great things to say about their organization. This team aims to please!
Folks are still buzzing about our last two events catered by PSRT and their efficient staff. Their high level of professionalism, delicious food, and inventive food presentation has won over even our most impossible critics.
There is no one else I know who makes the planning process for a large event as effortless and fun as Debbie. From start to finish, Debbie does it all! She takes responsibility for the set up, food, staffing, and cleanup so the hosts can focus on entertaining guests.
Many things have impressed me about Debbie and PSRT such as their culinary creativity, innovative party themes, friendliness, and approachability, but even more so is Debbie’s ability to take initiative and diffuse any stressful situation with well though out solutions under pressure. Her killer instincts, attention to detail, and experience make her exceptional at what she does. Needless to say, she goes above and beyond to coordinate an all around outstanding party.
There is no one else I trust more. They are the one-​stop shop when it comes to planning an event.

Chelsea and PSRT just catered our wedding and they stole the show. It’s weeks later and people are still talking about how great the food was. In fact, a bunch of our family spent the majority of Thanksgiving arguing over what the best part of our wedding was: Mac n’ Cheese! No, it was the fig crostini! No, the butternut squash soup!
Simply put: The food is excellent.
As anyone who has planned a wedding knows, the taste of the food isn’t the only thing that matters. Quantity (bang for your buck), flexibility, and attitude matter just as much. PSRT kills it on all of these counts too.
PSRT originally got my attention because they offered more for the money (Homemade specialty drinks anyone? Have the berry lemonade!). Then once we got into the planning of our dinner, Chelsea and team went out of their way to make sure I got the presentation I was looking for. It was important to me to have an event that wasn’t over-​the-​top but was fun, classy and different. That meant finding specialty linens and unique presentation for some of our food. After trying multiple party rental places that didn’t have what I wanted, Chelsea found someone to make the linens I was looking for! She also made sure we got our favorite food in a classy presentation: mac ‘n cheese in martini glasses. Even on game day, she surprised us with special twisty champagne flutes that matched our décor perfectly and added the touch of whimsy I had been looking for.
Most importantly, the team there is super accommodating and helpful when it counts. On our wedding day, I had lost my voice and Chelsea and PSRT kept a hot tea with honey and lemon by my side the whole day until I could get through the vows. In moments like that, having someone who is easy to work with is just as important as the food!

PSRT as they are called for those in the know. Ha Ha.
My wife and I were married in March of 2009. PSRT was on a short list of caterers we were selecting. PSRT knocked our socks off before we even went for a tasting. Our event manager Meghan was a delight to work with. She was hands-​on and always ready to assist at our event. The staff was proactive to the fullest. Every staff person at the event was a super professional and very responsive. They worked so well together. I love well-​run and organized events. Both of our parents and immediate family were super-​impressed with the décor, food, presentation, etc. We had a swanky wedding event.
Don’t forget the get the lemonade and the ginger ale beverages. Yummy.
From me, PSRT gets my highest recommendation for caterers. Ask for Meghan if she is still with PSRT.

Our experience was amazing with PSRT!
Planning a wedding over state lines can be daunting. Chelsea, our event planner, was completely hands on and tailored the experienced to fit our needs. She returned emails and phone calls promptly, indulged my panic attacks, and graciously smoothed over some post-​event hiccups.
And the food! Everything surpassed our expectations!

I used PSRT for my engagement party and they did an amazing job! Chelsea made sure that everything was just perfect– the food was excellent and everything was beautifully set up. The staff was very friendly and organized. We got tons of compliments on how good the food was (we had paella as the main course). The sangria and homemade ginger ale were also excellent.
Chelsea helped us along every step of the planning and made sure that we were ready for the event. She is very detailed and had great suggestions that I wouldn’t have thought about myself.
Overall we had a great experience with PSRT and I we would definitely use them again!

First time I experienced PSRT was at Vince’s brother’s wedding looooong time ago. Usually at weddings you get the «rubber» chicken or jerky chicken and the food is mediocre at best. I couldn’t believe how delish the food was and how moist the chicken was! They were extremely organized and one of the most professional service/​caterers I’ve seen at ANY wedding. A few years later, I used them for a work event. The food was marvelous and the employees couldn’t stop talking about it.
Definitely I will be using them at the next event.

PSRT will blow you away!
It looks like a lot of the Unilocal reviews are for wedding services, which I’m sure are amazing, but I’m giving PSRT a 5-​star recommendation for being the best caterers for professional corporate events. We’ve used PSRT for events ranging from a 300-​person gala dinner to a 1,300-person paella buffet. They’ve also done smaller cocktail-​type events for us, and we’re thinking about booking one of their delicious lunch trucks for an event later this year.
There is no one as good as PSRT. Absolutely no one! The staff is unbelievably competent and friendly. Go with PSRT!

Best. Wedding. Ever. Or at least that’s what I keep hearing.
Chelsea was great to work with and helped steer me in the right direction when I didn’t want to make decisions. I have heard nothing but rave reviews from all of our guests regarding the food and quality of service. Everything was absolutely perfect. I would definitely recomment PSRT if you wanted to have that perfect party that everyone keeps talking about for weeks afterward. The 6 foot paella pans were definitely the perfect touch. Even the grilled vegetables were raved about. If I had another big important event I would use them again in a heartbeat.

Pro: Based on the meeting with the catering rep, I give PSRT 5 stars and bajillion thumbs up. My fiancé and I were truly impressed with every detail provided to us, as well as the timeliness of the proposal we received less than 24 hours after our meeting!
Con: High-​end quality sometimes means high-​end price, and even after they worked out new numbers for us, we still weren’t able to work it into our budget. BUT that’s not PSRT’s problem, it was all our’s.
PSRT is definitely worth using — they know their services and products inside and out!
