Our business started back in '09 at local Farmer's Markets, and we have been grateful to expand ever since. Our team and family have built up a cozy brick and mortar in North Park, and a fast-paced location inside Liberty Public Market in Point Loma. San Diego is the best city in the world and we love the rapport we have built within the community. We look forward to continued growth as we spread our Aloha spirit to more venues and customers.

We worked with Andrea and the catering team from Chris' Ono Grinds in North Park for our wedding in December 2023 in Solana Beach. From the beginning of our planning we knew we wanted delicious food for our guests and Andrea and her team delivered! She was involved in our planning process early, participated in video chats to figure out our requests and she went out to see the venue herself to make sure the plan was a good fit for our event. We received many compliments from our guests about the food (the spam musubi appetizers were a particular hit along with the kalbi entree) and no one left hungry! On the day itself we had great servers during set up and serving in the event, very professional and helpful throughout. We recommend anyone planning a big event to consider bringing in the delicious food from Chris' Ono Grinds

Buckboard Catering and Events 

5.0

  • Starts at $1,000
  • Serves San Marcos, CA

Established in 1986. Buckboard Catering and Events was established in May of 1986 and is one of the oldest catering companies in San Diego. The business has expanded to include a full range of farm-to-fork locally sourced food options to extensive culinary catering for any occasion or experience. A complete inventory of rental items for any size event is also available.

We could not have been happier with the service we received from Buckboard as the catering provider for our wedding. Right from the initial meeting Ashley, (Buckboard’s sales manager) gave us a personalized introduction and very friendly tasting. It was clear from this initial interaction that she cared more about our experience and less about just becoming one of their customers. The food was/is absolutely delicious. Every single item was cooked perfectly, and it was clear from the initial tasting that their chefs and cooks take genuine pride in cooking high quality meals that do not come off as “mass produced” like a number of other caterers in the area. We have lost count of the number of guests who told us during and after the meal that it was by far the best food they’ve ever had at a wedding, and this is reflective of the company as a whole. Ashley and JP (the Chief Operating Officer) were both present during the planning process, and worked with us directly to determine a menu that would be both wonderful for the guests as well as within our budget. When dietary restrictions were presented, Ashley and her team made the accommodations easy and care free, and provided options that were also delicious. She and her staff were so friendly and professional on the day-of that a number of guests went out of their way to comment on the crew. We cannot rave enough about the services we received from Buckboard Catering. To make matters better they also operate a full-time restaurant in El Cajon, which we plan on frequenting regularly when visiting San Diego. For prospective couples planning a wedding, choosing Buckboard as your caterer will not only put your mind at ease knowing the quality of service you will be receiving, but you and your guests will be absolutely thrilled with the meal you get to enjoy.

YOOSHI SUSHI CATERING & EVENT PRODUCTION

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.

Working with Honey and Hive was so easy, from start to finish. Nancy is so kind and truly does all she can to make her clients happy! We hired Honey & Hive Boards to provide appetizers for our wedding this April; we ended up doing little charcuterie cups styled in glass jars that were beautiful as well as a large grazing board. Our guests loved the jars, it kept guests moving around during cocktail hour rather than hovering over one table or by the bar. I would highly recommend Honey & Hive Boards to any newly engaged couples planning their weddings!
