Your staff are correct! Everyone enjoyed the party and several had seconds of the Paella! Two of our guests are actually from Spain and gave the food an A+
The heat kept a few people from attending and we had a few other last minute cancellations, which solved the shrimp allergy issue (but also eliminated 3 of the children we expected). We were happy to have some leftovers and a few guests were super excited to take some home!

Your staff were EXCELLENT…Daniel clearly knows what he is doing and although folks weren’t gathered outside to watch, I forgot to tell him that they had opened the blinds in the family room so they could watch him cooking through the window while he braved the 100+* heat. Haley was extremely helpful while we were getting ready. Due to an unanticipated delay in finishing a project on the patio, we were unable to do table and chair setup until Sunday morning. Additionally, everything had to be wiped down at the last minute. She was a real trooper and still managed all of her duties with the food and setup. Both Daniel & Haley were extremely pleasant, courteous, helpful, and professional.

Many thanks to all of you at Paella Time!

Good job catering our wedding for 150 guests. The paella and appetizers we’re excellent. Many of our guests never had this type of food before. Everyone enjoyed it. The cooking was fun. Thank you Paella Time.

Amazingly delicious paella! We had them cater a party that was less than two weeks away, and they came through. The staff were resourceful, cooking two giant pans of paella (one veggie and one with all seafood and meats) in small designated corner. One paella pan was actually cooked on our stovetop with all five burners going at the same time. We also had three tapas - a jamon and melon, a ceviche, and a champignon. All were delicious. The staff mixed wonderful sangria beforehand. Our party guests all remarked how unique and delicious the food was, and some jumped at the opportunity to book these guys for a subsequent event. We will definitely be making this a yearly tradition and look forward to working with Ralph and his team again!

Ralph and his team were excellent. The planning process was very detailed to ensure that all of my expectations for the event would be met. They are able accommodate a variety of needs for any kind of event. The mixed paella was phenomenal. The chef and server we had, Daniel and Tiffany were very friendly, professional, and attentive. Highly recommend.

Thank you very much for the event you helped us put on. Guests raved about the food. One guest said that she’d had paella recently at a winery in Lodi that makes Spanish-style wines, and they’d brought in a chef from Spain. She said that our paella was better than the one in Lodi - she commented that she could actually taste the saffron in Paella Times'. The service from Chris, Tiffany, Kelly, and Tim was fantastic - they enhanced the event by their presence. David McLean and his wife Clare provided a perfect musical backdrop. Thank you for making our event a success!

Great job at our holiday party. Paella is always festive for any occasion. The live tapas and paella cooking adds some entertainment and a fun element to the party. Delicious tapas & paella.

Over the weekend Paella Time catered my Mother's 50th birthday. Working with Ralph was incredibly easy. This was a big occasion, and Ralph made it so simple. We had a amazing time, and everything surpassed our expectations. The paella was DELICIOUS, the flamenco entertainment was so much fun, and the staff provided excellent service! Can't thank you enough for helping make my Mother’s 50th birthday special!

Thank you Paella Time for an all around wonderful experience. The sangria, tapas, and paella were all delicious. BEST paella ever. Great staff and service.

Paella Time catered my husband's 60th birthday party this past weekend. By far the BEST catering experience we've had. It was fun to watch Chef Jerry in action cooking tapas & paella. The sangria, the tapas, the paella was all superb. The flamenco guitarist and dancer we're incredible, and a nice added touch that I didn't even consider until I discovered this service through Paella Time. All around a AMAZING experience. THANK YOU Paella Time!

Paella Time did an amazing job catering our anniversary party. I'm usually handling all the details for our parties, but this time I wanted to turn to someone that would allow me to enjoy our special night. If I had know it would be this easy, I would have hired Paella Time a long time ago. They arrived early, and had sangria and tapas ready when our guests arrived. Watching the chef cook the paella in our backyard was very entertaining. Everything was superb! Thank you for a relaxing and very enjoyable evening. We'll be in touch again.

We hired Paella Time for a company holiday party at our home. It was great! Everyone enjoyed watching the food get prepared and Daniel and Andres were very efficient and professional. The sangria, tapas, paella, and dessert was all delicious. Many compliments from our guests.

So much fun, and just what we were looking for. We hired Paella Time to cater our end of summer party. The tapas & paella was some of the best we had ever had. All of our guests had a great time, LOVED the idea, and RAVED about the food. The staff was professional and friendly, and took care of everything - even some food that we provided. Couldn't have been any easier. Thanks for a great party. I know some of our guests will be contacting you, and we're already discussing when's the next time we can have Paella Time over.

We hired Paella Time to cater a company event for 115 people. It went great! Everyone absolutely loved it. The staff was very professional, and fun. We had rave reviews about how the paella was so DELICIOUS. Thank you again, Ralph. It was great working with you, and hope to use Paella Time again!

THANK YOU SO MUCH PAELLA TIME! You made my husband's 40th a truly fun experience. DELICIOUS tapas & paella. We shared left overs with friends the next day that couldn't make it. Still delicious!

Hired Paella Time to cater our annual wine party, and from the countless compliments we've received this is one of the best we've had, and we're already considering this for another future event. Chef Anthony was friendly and engaging explaining the process, and answering questions along the way. All of the drinks and food was as good as promised. Thank you Chef Ralph, Chef Anthony, and Paella Time team!

Just used Paella Time to cater my Mom's 60th birthday. Everything was fantastic. They came early, set up, helped me with drinks and food that I was providing, and prepared AMAZING paella in a big paella pan. It was so much fun, and my mom and guests really enjoyed it. At the end, they packed everything up like they were never there. Great experience. Super easy. Thanks for a wonderful time.

Everything was wonderful, and everyone did an excellent job, like five star. They all did, the paella and appetizers were delicious, all our guests enjoyed it. The flamenco entertainment was a blast. Thanks a lot for making my husband's birthday special!

We hired Paella Time to cater a company team building event. From the first phone call Ralph was responsive, and had some great ideas to really make our event fun. WE made several tapas (all yummy), and the paellas were amazing. Thank you for a unique and fun experience!

Paella Time is the BOMB! These guys came to our place and cooked paella from scratch. They set up in our backyard with these giants pans. It was a lot of fun to watch, and everything was DELICIOUS. Thanks for a FUN day!

Thanks for making my father's 70th birthday so much fun. The evening was great and everyone really enjoyed the food. Everything was ready to go at the right time and your staff was wonderful, respectful and competent.
