Affordable Chef Services LLC

  • Starts at $26
  • Serves Big Sur, CA

Whether you're searching for a caterer for a dinner party, birthday, anniversary, wedding reception, holiday, company picnic, or other event, personal Chef Mark Gallagher of Affordable Chef Services of Santa Cruz can custom cater a menu just for you. Our highly trained professional staff have the experience and passion to cater your special event.

Mark and his team were wonderful from the start. He was always prompt to respond, kind, and quickly provided any updates to the menu/guest count/linen color change/ etc. We felt so comfortable working with Chef Mark right from the start and that was even more confirmed when we were able to finally meet him on our special day. Mark was adaptable to our decision to move where we were hosting dinner with such a supportive response "It is your day, we are serving dinner where you would like to" with no complaint at all. He arrived a few minutes early to make sure he and his team knew the venue layout and quickly got to work! He was personable making many guests laugh and smile (and even gave them sneak peak tastes into dinner and dessert!). Chef Mark also came down while we were eating to make sure that all guests were satisfied and boy were their smiles on everyones faces! We started with an array of appetizers from olive tapenade to turkey meatballs (my fav!) to ceviche. Our dinner was delicious- chicken, salmon, rice, asparagus, salad, and for dessert, chocolate cake and cheesecake (we ate it all!). All of the food was so good that we were getting texts the next day about all the specifics to our menu from our guests. I would HIGHLY recommend booking with Chef Mark if you want comfortable, reliable, and good vibes on your wedding day!

YOOSHI SUSHI CATERING & EVENT PRODUCTION 

5.0

  • Serves Big Sur, CA

I had my first shot at managing a sushi restaurant when I took over an empty section of the family restaurant and introduced sushi to my customers. It was a challenge that I will never regret accepting. It was fun, a lot of fun! I had the opportunity to work with some really talented and creative chefs. I quickly learned that it’s not just about having fresh fish anymore. Sushi dining has transformed into a culture. A culture built by imagination and creativity. With the help of GD and the support of my family, I took all that experience and fused it with my imagination and created Yooshi Sushi Catering and Event Production.

With live sushi stations, omakase style and custom menus available, Mr Fresh Catering will make your event shine.

A Dream Wedding Brought to Life Through Sushi Artistry We cannot thank Mr. Fresh Sushi Catering enough for the unforgettable culinary experience they provided at our wedding! From our very first tasting to the final roll served on our big day, their team was professional, passionate, and beyond talented. Our wedding took place at the Adamson House in Malibu, and the setting was already beautiful—but Mr. Fresh brought it to the next level with a stunning sushi and appetizer spread that completely wowed our guests. We chose a stationary appetizer format to allow for a relaxed, social vibe, and it worked perfectly. The sushi was incredibly fresh, artfully presented, and bursting with flavor. Guests are still raving about the spicy tuna poke cones, the live sushi station, and the yakitori skewers that were grilled to perfection. Even our friends who aren't huge sushi lovers went back for seconds (and thirds). The presentation was elegant and fit seamlessly with our theme—modern, clean, and full of coastal charm. The Mr. Fresh team worked closely with us to customize the menu and made sure every dietary preference was considered. Their professionalism, creativity, and care truly made our wedding feel unique and personal. If you're considering a sushi-forward catering option for your event—look no further. Mr. Fresh Sushi Catering is the best decision we made (besides saying "I do")! — Maya & Kenji W.

Jazzy was professional in communication and following up with our requests. We wanted the menu to be half vegan and half non-vegan and it delievered. Our guests couldn’t decide what their favorite items were. I still dream about the onion tarts and crab cakes!! They were an amazing part of our special day and I would recommend them to anyone. The food was so flavorful and was served timely. We love Anjahles!!!
