La Bonne Cuisine was amazing to work with from beginning to end. We were looking for a caterer at the last minute for a very large Employee Appreciation Summer Meeting. Everything was perfect! We could not be happier and we hope to work with them again in the future. Thanks!?

My friend and I were at the appreciation party, and the food and service were great. We can't find enough good words to say how much we enjoyed it. Cynthia was amazing. We would definitely recommend La Bonne Cuisine for any occasion, thanks.

We used La Bonne for a day conference in SF. The service was impeccable and the food was outstanding, very easy to work with, highly recommend them

La Bonne Cuisine recently catered my wedding and my friends and family were all raving about how good the food was! Especially the apps (Chanterelle Mushroom Pastry Puffs were a big hit). Highly recommend.

My non-profit recently organized a fundraiser and had La Bonne Cuisine cater the food as well as organize the entertainment. We had a ton of compliments on how good the food was. Everyone loved it. The entertainment was amazing as well! I will definitely use La Bonne Cuisine for our future events.

La Bonne Cuisine is the best catering company in the SF Bay Area. I have used their services for large and small events. They really are the right choice for any occasion. Every time I hear nothing but compliments on how good the food is and how it is served.

I can't thank enough for your help with the menu planning for my dinner. The food was delicious. The staff were professional. We couldn't expect more than we got.

We had the absolute best experience with La Bonne Cuisine when they catered our wedding. The service and food were excellent! The staff the night of our wedding was so helpful, attentive, and professional and helped create a definitely special celebration for our event. The sales team was very easy to communicate with, they were patient, creative and very quick to contact. Our guests continued to praise the food and service even 3 days after the event, and everyone wanted to go back in time to try these absolutely delightful appetizers again. I was already hungry when I wrote this review:)

I wanted to thank you for your amazing service. Our food arrived on time for my Birthday dinner. Hot and delicious! I'm glad I finally decided to move with La Bonne Cuisine as all the details were communicated so promptly and professionally so they left me no option but to move forward with them even I know I'm quite a picky about food and service. All in all that was such a stylish exquisite event where everyone enjoyed the beautifully presented display of snacks and craved for tasting each of them. I'll definitely recommend La Bonne Cuisine to all my friends and family.

We had a mixed experience using La Bonne catering for our wedding: Pros 1. They were extremely accommodating of food allergies. The bride has celiac disease and they were able to make all gluten free food that was safe from cross contamination. 2. The food was very delicious especially the risotto and braised short ribs. 3. Things primarily ran smoothly on the day. Cons 1. Several months before the event, they were extremely challenging to get a hold of. It took two months of emails and phone calls to get several questions answered. 2. We signed a catering proposal with a certain cost estimate. Three months before the event, they shared that many costs had been left off the original proposal and gave us a new proposal that was thousands of dollars more (this was so close to the wedding we did not have any options regarding finding a different caterer). 3. On the day, they were not ready to serve the drinks at the beginning of the cocktail hour and guests had to wait 10mins before the first guests were able to get their drinks.
I recently attended a very large corporate event catered by La Bonne. The food was plentiful and constantly refreshed, which was great. But the quality was mediocre at best, with desperately overcooked rice and dry-as-a-bone carved turkey. The flavors were decent, though, even if things were overcooked. The desserts tasted mass-produced and like they'd come out of a freezer. If they ARE made in-house, that would make me sad, because the quality of the ingredients was noticeably low, and choux pastry as that in the cream puffs should never taste that bready and mealy. The servers were mostly polite, although not always very responsive about serving food, but overly aggressive about busing tables. Several women kept bugging us while we were eating to see if we were done with any of our dishes. Honestly, that came across as pushy and a little rude. Let people finish, leave them alone until they're done eating, no one wants their food to get cold(er) while they have to answer to someone who wants to bus the table aggressively every 2-3 minutes! I am posting this review to let others know that this might not be the best catering company for a very large event, since it seems like their more positive reviews are for smaller events, and that might be where they excel!

If you read the negative reviews here they're all from the same party with 500+ people, but La Bonne just did our 175 person wedding and we couldn't have been happier! We worked with Fernando and felt like VIPs the entire time, we made a few special requests for sides and passed apps that they met with no questions asked. They have a great menu but if you want something specific they will with with you to make it happen. The staff was super friendly, professional and efficient. I used to work in catering so I was keeping an eye out for that. I would definitely recommend going with La Bonne for your event.

Surprised to see the negative comments posted about La Bonne Cuisine, although none have any supportive information. I have been using them for over 10 for all of my upscale events in our corporate law firm with nothing but praise from all those that attend. They are my go to caterer and always make me shine.
