TOAST Catering

Kim and Sam run an absolutely fabulous catering company at Toast Catering. First, my husband and I filled out a questionnaire with our food preferences and what we would like to serve at our wedding, and from this Toast created a personalized menu for our wedding. When we met with them, they served us the full meal including the appetizers! Not just a small tasting, the full meal! Be warned, come hungry because the food is amazing and you'll want to eat it all. For hors d'oeuvres, we had beef sliders that were miraculously moist and delicious (catered sliders are often dry in my opinion, but not these), a shot glass full of tomato bisque with a little grilled cheese bite, and a pork tamale. We were ready to hire them after the hors douvres but it just got better. They created a salad based off my favorite salad from a place in Santa Barbara which included fried chicken, corn bread and cranberries. Then our meal options were beef bourguignon, chicken achiote, and a vegetable tamale. There was not a weak option in the bunch. I still can't believe it's catered and not a fine dining restaurant! Great food aside, Kim and Sam were such a joy to work with and were super organized. The sit down dinner at our wedding went without a hitch and to my knowledge not a single snafu with meal choices. The wait staff they hired were attentive and seamless in the reception. I didn't notice them ever and then as soon as I needed someone, they were on hand. All of our guests commented on how good the food was. I highly recommend Toast for anyone's wedding. You will be blown away by both their food and their wedding expertise. I wish I had more events that I could hire them for!

Toast Catering (Sam (the chef) and Kim (all of the rest +) ) catered the lovely wedding for our son and his bride in our craftsman house. They were outstanding. First, they were an enormous help in figuring out how to organize our space and what rentals we needed. Second, they were incredibly generous with their time in helping us choose the all vegan menu and providing a tasting. Once on site, on the day of the event, they were both nearly invisible (felt like family) and incredibly calm and competent in going about their job. And, even better than family, they thought of the things that we had not. Without our asking them (and really not known to us until the next day), they went out to the guest house to serve the couple who were taking turns engaging in the wedding events and taking care of their sleeping and fussy babies. In addition, at the last moment, one of our guests told us that her baby had been diagnosed with an allergy to soy and nuts so that she could eat neither because she was breast-feeding. Picture vegan, then picture no soy and no nuts. I told Sam about a week before the event (when I learned about this) that I did not expect him to solve the issue, that I would provide something like beans and rice that would "work." He said that this issue was not a problem - that he could take care of it - and he did. And he did - with no additional charge. Finally, the food was delicious; everyone (in a group that included many who had serious doubts about the edibility of vegan food) thought that both the lunch and the dinner were delicious and noted that it changed their mind about what they would eat. In short, these two are a treasure - and I recommend them highly for any event.

YUM! If you want to provide good food and wonderful service at your wedding, we highly recommend Toast Catering. Sam and his wife Kim were amazing to work with. Sam's food is delicious and all of our guests couldn't stop talking about how wonderful everything tasted. We are foodies and it was important for us to have a good meal that everyone would remember, and using Toast was the perfect choice. The presentation was also amazing and their staff was courteous, helpful and professional!! You cannot go wrong choosing Toast!!!!

5 out of 5 is not enough! Kim and Sam are simply the best and provide outstanding professional service and the most amazing food. Kim and Sam created an amazing vegan menu for our wedding, wild mushroom pizzettes, falafels, Chilean style sheppards pie with corn crusted and seasoned crumbled soy, and Tian provencal were just some of the delicious foods that graced our tables all dished up in a "home style" service
Anybody in the Southern California area that is looking for outstanding, professional catering, especially a vegan menu, should call Kim and Sam immediately, you will not be disappointed.
I recommend TOAST CATERING 100%

Toast catered my wedding 2 weeks ago and, I don't mean to brag, but it was the best wedding food I've ever had hands down! Not only did me and my husband think so, but in the many emails I received in the next few days from family and friends congratulating us, the amazing food was mentioned over and over again.

From the first time we met with Sam and Kim (owners/chef/manager/awesome couple), we knew that Toast was the perfect company to cater our wedding reception. Of the 10+ catering companies I looked into, Toast had by far the most interesting menu and from our initial emails back and forth they were willing to work with whatever our budget was. Even better, they can provide all your rentals, which makes the planning process so much easier. At our tasting, it was clear that Sam and Kim have a sincere desire to accomodate any ideas/requests you may have. The food was not only beautifully plated but was absolutely delicious. We hired Toast on the spot without hesitation.

On the big day, the details were exactly as my husband and I wanted them. Sam and Kim make the perfect team because while Sam, who is classically trained in France, handles the food, Kim manages the logistics of the venue layout, seating arrangements, rentals, etc. The rentals arrived right on time and the tables were arranged and set well in advance. The. Food. Was. Amazing. There was zero drop in the quality of food from the tasting for 2 to the reception dinner for 160. The front of the house Toast staff (servers & bartenders) were extremely professional and friendly.

I would hire the Toast duo now before they book up for 2013!

We had a beautiful wedding and it was down in no small part to the professionalism of TOAST.

Husband and wife team Kim and Sam were approachable, calm, insightful and talented. They worked in tandem to provide a stunning buffet dinner, cake serving and champagne toast. Kim set up the tables with my colour suggestions and flowers and it was GORGEOUS! We also had a fully tended bar and the bartender was friendly and super efficient. In fact all the staff from TOAST exceeded our expectations.

My guests commented on how well looked after they felt. The food was DELISH and the champagne and water glasses were kept topped up.

We are delighted with our choice of caterer and would recommend anyone wanting a 5 star service with a very personal touch, to look to TOAST.

We hired Toast Catering for our wedding reception. What first drew us to them was their price as compared with other caterers in the area. We did three tastings. One with Toast and the two others with larger companies. During our tasting with Toast we felt like we had gone over to a friend's house for dinner. They allowed us to eat alone and weren't hovering around like the other places. We were able to talk about the food. They gave us full plates of all the entree choices (we couldn't finish it all!). After we ate they sat with us to talk about things, and then we ended up just chatting about life. I truly felt like we had found some untapped secret in them! During the rest pf the process they were very available via e-mail and always responded either the same day or within a few days. I wouldn't suggest emailing them on a Thursday-Sunday and expect a response because they are busy with prepping for events. They were able to meet with us at the venue for a walk through and go over the day. They accommodated last minute changes. During the event I honestly didn't see or talk to them at all I don't think, but everything ran smoothly. The food was amazing, and some of our guests even went to the kitchen to ask if there were any extra plates they could have as seconds! I don't remember eating (bride problem LOL) but they sent us home with dinners and we enjoyed them in our hotel room after the wedding. Their staff was attentive and everything looked absolutely gorgeous. We are truly thankful we were able to find and hire Toast Catering and I would recommend them to anyone who asks in the future.

We recently used Toast Catering for our wedding. I have nothing but great things to say about Sam, his wife Kim, and their team. From the moment we started corresponding, to our tasting appointment, to our big day, they were gracious, attentive, professional, and organized. Not to mention, the food was AMAZING! We used Toast as a one-stop-shop (they provided the wait staff, bartenders, plates, silverware, glassware, etc.), and it made our lives beyond easy. They took care of literally everything, and at price that beat what most other catering companies were charging for food alone.

Sam and Kim arranged a fabulous menu that was conducive to our mixed guest list (American and Persian), and it worked out beautifully. Everyone really enjoyed the live sushi bar at cocktail hour as well.

Another bonus note - I normally find that the taste/quality of food and presentation suffers at large events, but Toast's food was consistently cooked perfectly, was super tasty, and looked great (we had about 230 people at our wedding). Our wedding was in June, and people are still talking about how great the food was.

Home run all around!!!! We will definitely be using Toast Catering again. Thanks again Sam and Kim!!!

Our friends and family are STILL raving about the amazing food from Toast! As a husband and wife team, Kim and Sam offer complete catering services. He handles all the cooking, she handles all the front end stuff. Together, it's a seamless dining experience.

I was drawn to Toast after seeing that they offer an actual vegetarian/vegan menu -- with TONS of options to choose from. No crappy greasy "grilled" vegetables and pasta with jarred tomato sauce on this menu -- Sam instead offers fabulous and thoughtful creations, such as a phenomenal vegetable wellington, chickpea and cauliflower tagine, wild mushroom and spinach lasagna, and many other delicious options.

They handled all the food, rentals (they use a really great family-owned rental company called Affairs Party Rentals), the bartender and servers, and set up/break down. We brought in our own alcohol and wedding cake, though I believe Toast can hook you up with both if you want. It was so awesome not having to worry about the rentals details, and Kim handled all the service and decor impeccably. Kim acts kind of like a day-of wedding coordinator, which is so helpful. If you are having trouble with the flow or timing of your wedding, use her as a resource -- she's great!

To fill you in on our delicious eats, we had a totally vegetarian spread (with nary a complaint from the many carnivores in attendance), including:

- roasted red pepper hummus and pita chips (vegan)
- fruit platter
- cheese display (which was beautifully presented)
- tray passed Indian vegetarian patties (made vegan for us)
- vegan lettuce wraps (made with soy crumbles)
- organic spring mix salad
- mushroom and spinach lasagna
- roasted vegetable wellington
- tian provencal (oven roasted vegetables -- vegan again)

The food was so good that my stomach is now rumbling from writing this review... d'oh! Our guests were very impressed, and several people came up to me and said that this was the best wedding reception food they've ever had. Sam offers a ton more vegan (and vegetarian) options, too -- amazing, considering he's not a vegan/vegetarian chef by any means.

I must mention again that all this fabulous food did not come with a ridiculous price tag. It was incredibly reasonable and I would even say a bargain considering the quality of the food and service. And would you believe that Kim and Sam are incredibly sweet and easy-going people to boot!

My only advice is to tell Sam how you like your food (super bold flavors or extra spicy) and he can adjust it to your liking. We ended up doing two tastings with Toast because we failed to let Sam know what we were looking for spice-wise the first time. Tell him ahead of time, do a tasting (why not enjoy the amazing food at a time when you'll actually be able to eat it?), and you and your guests will be so happy you choice...

Sam and Kim of Toast catering were the best choice for our wedding. From the first contact through the day of our wedding, they were everything one hopes to have for their big day. My calls and emails were always answered in a timely manner. My questions were always answered and verified to be what we wanted. Even when we lost our first venue reservation and I had to let all our other vendors know, it was Sam who called after my flustered email and made a number of new venue suggestions. I always felt at ease working with them; I felt like their only wedding, even though I know they have more than just me to think about. It was incredibly comforting to have them in my corner. Sam created a delicious menu for us and every guest told us how much they enjoyed their meal. Kim kept the day running smoothly. I have both of them to thank for how perfectly, smoothly, and wonderfully the day went. It was flawless. I highly recommend Toast Catering. You will be happy with the quality, professionalism, and care they provide.

Sam and Kim's professionalism and attention to detail is top knotch. They went out of their way to accomodate all the requests that we made. They truly made our wedding a special day and I look forward to having them cater events for us in the future. You guys are awesome. High Five!!!

I can't recommend Sam and Kim highly enough. They really deserve six stars! They recently catered my wedding and the food was spectacular! We requested that everything be vegetarian and from the cocktail hour to the main course, everything was delicious and beautifully presented. We received compliments on the food all night and even almost a month later someone commented on how delicious it was. What I especially appreciated is how responsive and dependable Toast was. We had a special situation because our venue had an approved vendor list and Toast was not on it - we had to push a little to get approval and were required to at least in theory "work with" another caterer that was on the approved list. Sam did such an amazing job of reaching out to the other caterer and the venue to coordinate and really went above and beyond to make things come together smoothly. In the end we had different vendors for the cake, food and linens but I wish we could have used Toast for everything. The tasting at Sam and Kim's kitchen was so much fun and the night came together perfectly. Toast offers a phenomenal value as well. I thought the prices were very reasonable and well worth it. I would recommend Toast to anyone!

After interviewing several leading French restaurants and caterers in San Diego, we selected Sam and Kim Behnam of Toast Catering to cater our wedding. Following a lovely tasting in their kitchen, our expectations were that the food would be excellent, but we were a little apprehensive about committing to a small company. Those reservations were quickly put to rest by their very high level of personal service.
Kim and her team went above and beyond what I’ve come to expect from most caterers. They were very responsive in their communications, proactive in their decisions, and they took great initiative as Kim demonstrated that her role was closer to event coordinator than caterer. The personal touches and outstanding service provided by Toast far exceeded our expectations, and were certainly above our experiences with other caterers and restaurant based catering.
We and many of the other guests consider ourselves “foodies” with a passion for cooking and food. Our guests also included a significant number of high maintenance French nationals where the term passion doesn’t begin to describe their love of cuisine. The consensus among the guests was that the meal prepared by Sam was the among the best meals that they’ve had in memory. The appetizers were perfectly prepared and seamlessly circulated, while the courses were brilliant and beautifully plated. Do not miss the opportunity to try Sam’s Argentinean Beef Skewers or Beef Bourguignon.
After re-reading the above recommendation, it looks like perhaps Sam or Kim’s mom must have written it. Please be assured that it represents my and Chantal’s experience. If you ask us for a recommendation for a French caterer, it’s Toast. If you don’t ask us, we’ll still tell you to use Toast.

Thank you Sam and Kim for helping to make our wedding special!

Sincerely,
Dave Breyfogle and Chantal Turenne des Pres (now Breyfogle!)

Toast Catering was the perfect choice for our wedding. We couldn't have been happier with the service they provided. Sam the head chef, and his wife Kim, as well as their whole team, executed flawlessly at our wedding.
Sam and Kim were extremely patient with us throughout the whole planning process. Sam was able to offer a very customized menu selection for us, which included a flavor of Vietnamese and Russian dishes (my wife is Vietnamese and I am Russian), at a very affordable price. We also chose to serve appetizers family-style, which Sam and Kim were glad to accommodate and put in extra time and effort to optimize table sizes, serving platters, etc. In addition, Sam and Kim easily adapted to our many changes throughout the planning process, including last minute table reconfigurations. They both also spent many hours helping us arrange the tables the best way in the space available, which was of tremendous help. Their choice of rental company vendors was also excellent, and they too spent many hours working with us throughout the planning process.
On the day of the wedding, Kim acted as a coordinator, among many other roles, which again put us much at ease and removed a lot of stress from us. Her execution was again flawless, as we had absolutely nothing to complain about. Everything went perfectly, and exactly as we planned!
Sam's cooking was amazing. It has been almost a month since our wedding, and we're still getting compliments about how fresh and tasty the food was. The service was amazing, the presentation was picture-perfect, the food was plentiful, and everything ran smoothly and on-time.
Our day-of-coordinators could not stop talking about Sam and Kim, and how easy it was to work with Toast Catering. We honestly could not have been any happier with the service they provided, and we would strongly recommend them to anyone that's looking for a great caterer that flexible and easy to work with at an affordable price!

Our wedding planner referred us to TOAST and a few other caterers. From the start of our menu selection to the day of the wedding, our decision to work with TOAST was very well made.

Sam was extremely flexible to work with and open to our ideas on what we wanted on for our buffet dinner. We even traded recipes in order to come up with what we liked best. He had great suggestions on alternatives to the standard fare and created a menu that everyone raved about ... mahi mahi fish tacos, mac n cheese, ny strip, and more.

Sam and his entire staff are very professional and helpful, our guests were certainly treated to excellent service from the first passed appetizers to dessert. And, not only did the food taste great, the presentation was beautiful.

And all the other stuff, like contracts and communications on menu were handled an the most prompt manner.

We would highly recommend TOAST !

Our wedding was on Sat, June 18th 2011. My then fiance and I went to several tastings and were very concerned about the food at our wedding. We didn't want the "traditional" wedding fair-we were hoping for something a bit more "special".

When we did our tasting with Sam from Toast Catering, I knew we found what we were looking for. Sam was always quick to respond to our questions, and very accommodating. His food is amazing.

The actual wedding was better than we could ever imagine. The service was perfect and the courses were Sublime. Sam had more than enough staff on hand and it went off magically. Our guests are still commenting on how good the food was.

Sam and Kim-thank you so much for taking such great care of us. I will recommend you every chance I get.

-Mike and Sarah

I do not think that I could write a review that would truly express my excitement about choosing TOAST catering for my wedding! My husband and I were sold the moment we met Sam and Kim. They greeted us with such warmth and enthusiasm when we met at the tasting. Not to mention, their food is unbelievable!

The food service at the wedding was flawless! Everything was delicious and the guests raved about all of the food the entire night! I managed to grab food throughout the night and it tasted just like it did at the tasting...no small feat to cook food for 130 that tastes the same as when cooked for 2!

I could go on and on reviewing TOAST! They will be my caterers for any event I host in the future!!

We couldn't be happier with choosing Toast catering to cater our wedding! Sam, Kim and their staff were very professional and accomodating with all our our needs. The food of course was the highlight! We got rave reviews from our guests and everything tasted just as great as our initial tasting. The staff was very attentive and did a seamless job. They even brought our bridal party appetizers when we were taking pictures without being asked. I would recommend Toast to all of my friends and family for any event. Thanks for everything!!

TOAST made my wedding day perfect.

I was born and grew up in France, where i went to culinary school and worked as a pastry chef for a couple of years, so i am VERY picky about food. My now husband was introduced to gourmet food when we started dating, so when we decided to have our small (12 guests plus us two) wedding catered, we knew we wanted the best. I am glad we found them!

I contacted Sam (he is the chef, while his wife Kim coordinates) a couple of months ago and luckily they were available for my wedding day. We met a couple of days later at the reception site to discuss the menu, rentals and details.

We wanted a mix of american and french influences in the food and he did a great job at creating a menu that would reflect that for us.

Sam took care of rentals as well (one less thing for us to worry about) including table, chairs, linens, bar table, etc.

We communicated via email a few times and he was always very prompt at answering any of my questions.

The day of the wedding, Sam and Kim arrived on time (love that!) and set up the dining room just as i had imagined it, if not better. It was just perfect!

The food was delicious, the guests all commented on it saying it was the best food they'd ever had. I think i'm going to hear about our wedding food for a long time, which is exactly what i wanted!

We had the prosciutto-wrapped tiger shrimps as hors d'oeuvres, as well as kobe beef mini sliders, caprese skewers and Sam's famous quesadillas (highly recommended!). The main course was boeuf bourguignon (the best i've ever tasted!) with truffle mashed potatoes, and we had mini vanilla crème brûlées as well as a mini chocolate assortment to go along with the wedding cake.

Long story short, a disaster happened to our wedding cake the morning of, and we ended up getting a 15$ tiramisu cake from Ralphs. Sam and Kim made it look like it was a nice expensive cake with decorations, and everyone raved about it.

They were both extremely friendly, professional, and a pleasure to have around. Worth every penny! If you want the best for your wedding or other special event, call TOAST.

Now i must go try to re-create Sam's boeuf bourguignon because my husband liked it better than my recipe - they set the bar very high.

My new wife and I had our wedding scheduled for 10.2.10 at the MoPA in Balboa Park, and they asked us to use their preferred vendors. I’m often leery of going that route, but as I’d soon find, we hit the jackpot with Toast. We scoured through the 10 or so options, weeding out those we felt wouldn’t hit the mark, but right from the moment we saw Sam’s website, we knew we’d found our man. They cook everything onsite, they don’t use frozen repacked foods and sell them as their own, and they will even give you suggestions of what to look out for in your caterer, in the event you DON’T go with them. He has classic Southern French training, but is savvy in SW cuisine and has a knack for putting his twist on everything he prepares.

It was important for me to find a caterer for our wedding who understood my passion for food, and wouldn’t get offended when we wanted things a certain way. It was also a dealbreaker that I had to have food at my wedding that people would love, because let’s face it, wedding food generally sucks, plain and simple. Its large scale and soulless, and I’ve never left a wedding talking about the dinner. That all changed the night we got married.

When we did our tasting, at my request, he prepared two variations of each dish so we could choose which version we liked the best. He even quickly learned one of my dishes to be included on the menu, and he nailed it 100%, sight unseen (or untasted)! We had over 140 guests, and our selections were: Caprese skewers, curried-butternut squash bisque shooters, & open face ”Tamales” over fried corn cakes, all passed. Then we served my spinach/strawberry/goat cheese salad; before the entrees which included Hoisin-Beer braised short ribs, or Alaskan halibut with blood orange buerre blanc, both over saffron mashed potatoes and grilled asparagus, or butternut squash ravioli with sage butter and tomato coulis. I’ve never heard so many compliments over the food at a wedding, and I’m still getting rave reviews.

Sam will work within your budget to make it work for you, and try to help you be creative even when your budget isn’t as big as you’d like. He charges a very minimal service charge comparatively, and the staff he brought to my big day crushed it. They even helped my father in-law load all of the extra booze after the night was over…and there was a lot of it!

In the end, Sam and his team from Toast catering were amazing, and I’d recommend them 100x over.

TOAST was absolutely amazing for us. We had a completely vegetarian wedding reception and we were the only vegetarians, but ALL of our guests LOVED the food. In addition to Fantastic food, we loved working with Sam and Kim of TOAST. They were so genuine and considerate and an honest pleasure to work with. We would (and WILL!) recommend them to everyone.
Thanks TOAST!

After looking at countless caterers thatwanted to charge me an arm & a leg for food I wasn't all that excited about my wedding planner suggested Toast. From the second I saw the sample menu I knew it was perfect. Then when I saw how reasonable the price was I was sold. Everything was amazing. They couldn't keep the appitzer trys full, my guests were chasing them down! I even went without a cake so they made all my deserts (creme brule & cheesecake lollie pops) The food is all my guests can talk about. It's been 1 week & I've had people calling for their number ever since. Thank you so much for doing an amazing job.

Sam and Kim were so wonderful throughout the entire process of planning our wedding. First of all, the food was AWESOME, all of my guests raved about it! Our wedding was a little different, we had it in my parents' backyard and there wasn't a ton of seating, so Sam did a bunch of hor d'ouevres and small plates for us, but it still felt like a dinner because we had a first pass of lighter foods and then a second longer pass of heavier, more dinner-like food. Everything worked all really great and was really beautiful. Sam and Kim were always available for questions and tips and were so extremely helpful. The morning of the wedding was a crazy rush for me, and I don't know how it all came together, but I'm assuming the caterer and the florist somehow collaborated, because the tables all looked beautiful! Sam and Kim took just a couple of my ideas and then used their expertise to just make it happen. I loved them! Use them!

From the moment I first spoke with Sam at TOAST, I knew that our wedding catering experience was going to be amazing. What we could not have imagined was the response our wedding guests would have to the food...even now (a month later) our family and friends are still raving about the kobe beef sliders, open faced pork tamales, mac & cheese and perfectly cooked tri-tip!

Sam & Kim were so open and friendly and willing to create a menu that reflected our personality while keeping an upscale flair and their signature style. The process of crafting the menu was fun, relaxed and the tasting helped me (the nervous bride) feel totally at ease. The food was fanstastic and Sam was so receptive to our suggestions. Kim provided plenty of options for the linens and rentals and made sure that the space would also reflect the feeling that we wanted for our wedding. TOAST helped us to stay within our budget without sacrificing any elegance! Working with the two of them was more like working with two friends than with a large company where you might be treated like just another client or event. We sincerely appreciated the personal touch.

The wedding itself went of without a hitch and the TOAST event staff was so helpful and pleasant. Though my husband and I were scurring around greeting guests (as I'm sure it goes at most weddings) the staff made sure to save us a tray of appetizers and always kept our glasses full! They checked on us constantly throughout the night to make sure we could sneak bites of dinner and our guests continually commented on the beautiful display of food and drinks.

We are SO thrilled at the product, value and service we received from Sam & Kim at TOAST. We would give them the highest recommendation for any wedding or event!

Toast was the perfect choice for our wedding catering! My husband worked as a chef, so the quality of food was especially important to him. I wanted fresh, California style cuisine, with a so-cal emphasis. Quality of ingredients was especially important to us as was finding a caterer to match our budget.

Sam worked with us to create an AMAZING (seriously people couldn't stop complimenting us) menu that included everything on our wish list, at a price we could afford. Their team coordinated rentals and setup everything so we had nothing to worry about on the big day. The food was beautiful and delicious and I am so happy that we chose toast for our wedding.

TOAST catering (Sam and Kim) were a pleasure to work with. They are a dynamic duo (Sam's cooking and Kim's coordinating)! The tasting was amazing, and free if you decided to use them, which we did. Their staff were courteous and professional and everything was right on time. They had great options for linens, etc. and were willing to work with our needs. Now, for the food. I am originally from Maryland and many of my family members and friends were going to be here for the wedding, so it was crucial that the crab cakes be authentic...and they were!!! One highly critical friend said that she has been to a lot of weddings and Sam's creations were, by far, the best hors d'oeuvres that she'd ever had. TOAST catering is an incredible value on top of it all. My husband and I highly recommend them.

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 other 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 the 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!

Sam and his wife Kim were truly a pleasure to work with. Not only are they great, so IS THEIR FOOD! Sam and I met at a common kitchen we had worked out of a few years ago and I have tried a couple of things here and there and they always tasted great!

Sam had done a tasting for us at our home and we were blown away! Every guest we had spoken to raved about how good the food was and that it was the best food they had ever had at a wedding! My friend even dreamt about the chicken tikka masala the next day for breakfast!All I can say is I am still thinking about those Kobe Beef Sliders... those things are to die for!!!

Sam and Kim did an amazing job and their wait staff were on top of things as well. I would highly recommend Toast...

My clients are beyond satisfied with the service and food of Toast. Sam is able to be a creative outlet in choices while sticking to a budget and make it all run smooth. An al around great catering company.

Delicious food and very easy to work with!

We've not only had the opportunity to work with TOAST at a wedding as a vendor, but also had him cater an event for us and were able to see his professionalism from a customer standpoint. Sam and his staff are very friendly and we were very impressed with the service as well as the quality of the food and presentation. We highly recommend TOAST Catering!
