“Dear
Sammy and Kim,
The
Bar Mitzvah reception that you catered was PERFECT!!! It was alot of
fun working together to create the menu and each and every item came
out sooooo delicious! The presentation was exactly what I was looking
for: casually elegant and Kim you seem to put your great sense of
‘style’ on everything! I loved listening to our guests rave about how
fantastic and original the food was. You both took care of every last
detail and that was exactly what I wanted and needed. I thoroughly
enjoyed our own party! The sliders and lettuce wraps were superb!
Thanks
again for everything, you outdid yourselves!
Much
love”

used TOAST catering for our last two company Christmas parties and
couldn’t be more pleased. The food was excellent, the service
was great, and the serving staff even cleaned up after
themselves! We will definitely call TOAST whenever we have an

“Hi Sam,
The food was a hit! Everyone loved the entire menu, I especially enjoyed the quesadillas, wow! Your staff were fantastic, friendly, efficient and very talented.

“I
went into planning my wedding thinking that the food wasn't a priority,
after all people don't remember the meal and couples don't even get to
eat their plates right? If you go with TOAST, you will find that
neither is true! We received lots of comments from our guests about how
much they loved the food and we did too!
In fall of 09 we had our wedding reception at the Museum of Photographic Art (MOPA) and TOAST was one of their recommended vendors. After looking at the vendors we decided on TOAST because of their quick response and tasty looking menu! We had a great experience with Sam and Kim! In addition to being flexible with the food options they tailored their services to our budget. Even though we live in LA area, working with Sam and Kim was as easy as if we were in San Diego. As a preferred vendor at MOPA they worked seamlessly with the MOPA event staff.
We highly recommend TOAST for your next special event! They made sure that our wedding was a meal to remember!”

"Chef Sam and TOAST catered two events for me and they were both flawless. The first one was a reception for 90 non-English speaking South American lawyers at California Western School of Law. Chef Sam prepared a great cocktail reception menu that everyone was happy with and his staff handled the event with professional and friendly service. Two nights later he cooked a delicious dinner for 30 at our home. Every guest loved the meal which was freshly prepared with care and attention to details. I will definitely be using TOAST regularly at both my home and at the law school. Great job!"

“To Whom it may concern,
Your staff performed superbly on Saturday afternoon at the wedding held at my home. The food was exceptionally tasty, the presentation excellent and the cleanup was perfect.
Most important however, was the genuine demeanor of the staff members present. Friendly, courteous and professional throughout. Anyone present at the event could, without exception, highly recommend "TOAST" as the caterer's-of-choice at future events.
Thank you.”
