Cali's West Catering & Express Take Out

"Cali's exceeded our expectations. We booked with them, without a tasting, because of their reputation in the area. We worked primarily with Susan, and she was amazing! They helped us coordinate everything from food set up, to dismissing tables, to clean up of cocktail hour & the buffet. Our guests loved the food and talked about it the rest of the weekend. We highly recommend Cali's to cater your next event."

"Highly DISAPPOINTED!!!! Definitely NO Recommendation from this way. Let me first start of by saying the only reason Cali's was used is because per venue they are the caterers for the place that was booked for wedding. I will say, the STAFF provided was phenomenal!!! Made sure everything stayed clean, walked around filling glasses, and just nice folks!!! Will not take away from them. The young gentleman serving the food could have been a tad more personable, but it is what it is. HOWEVER, the food was horrible!!!!!! I understand it is banquet, but this was by far the WORST I have ever had!!! Very nice presentation, until you took a bite!!! The chicken dip, little smokies, and meatballs were good as appetizers, HOWEVER the chicken bacon ranch dip was disgusting (highly unrecommended). Then came dinner...the meatloaf had absolutely NO FLAVOR ( a nursing home resident would not have wanted that), the greens were simmered in a pot of water with a pinch of seasoning(for all that Glory greens from the can would have sufficed), the chicken did not look done at all(I can't tell you how it tasted because I was nervous to try it) and the mashed potatoes were dry. The fruit and cesar salad, as well as the rolls were good, but how can you mess those up. Also, the bride was advised that a SMALL appetizer platter would be provided at their sweetheart table, so when they came down they would have something to snack on while we waited for dinner to be served, and they got nothing. Just was not a good experience and unfortunately, I'm not the only one to say something, just the only one that will forewarned folks about spending their money wisely elsewhere for their special day."

"Cali’s catered our wedding on June 1st. They were great to work with. Nikki helped us coordinate throughout the whole process and was so helpful and communicative throughout. The service on our wedding day was excellent and the food was really good. I would recommend them to everyone!"

"Just absolutely amazing. They catered our Celtic style wedding and let us create our own menu. Our venue was about an hour away from them in Ohio, and they did not hesitate to help us. I didn't get to taste much of the food myself because my 2-year-old polished off my plate, which means it must have tasted amazing, but everyone else raved about it. I would have tipped them more money if I had it. They went above and beyond. Highly recommend to anyone that needs catering."

"Cali’s catered my son’s wedding yesterday at Bear Ridge. We live 2 1/2 hours away. I chose Cali’s without doing a taste test. I simply googled “best wedding catering in Erie, PA” and booked our event strictly off of other reviews. Cali’s did not disappoint. We couldn’t have been happier with every aspect of their service. Pre-wedding planning and communication was excellent. (Thanks Nikki!). We received rave reviews on the food. It was delicious. The staff were professional, courteous and attentive. The whole event was seamless . They took care of every little detail. I find hosting an event, like a wedding, to be laborious and stressful. Cali’s made the whole process and event stress free. I can’t thank you enough! I would highly recommend Cali’s Catering!"
