I had a great experience hiring Josh to cater my husband's 50th birthday party! We had nearly 100 guests (mix of adults and kids) and everyone raved about the quality and taste of the food!
Customer service was excellent and Josh was quick in answering my questions from day 1 all the way to the day before. We even ran into him a prior to the party serving at the SAP Center and said hello! Definitely check him out at your next Sharks game or hire him for your own party! You won't regret it!

OMG - I ordered a large number of buns for an adult birthday party and they delivered - metaphorically and literally.
Buns were a hit with all the guests, pork belly buns were gone before I even noticed. Beef buns, tofu buns, and chicken buns were also wildly popular. Perfect party food! 1000% will be ordering again for a future event!

Bun Me Up is the BEST! We hosted BMU catering at our office last week at it was a huge hit. Josh was so easy to work, and very patient as we navigated event details. My tenants raved about the food and folks came back for seconds and thirds. BMU was on time, affordable and professional. They're set up was so easy to work with and all who attended were impressed. Can't say enough good things and would have BMU back in a heartbeat.

Josh and his team were so great through the whole process for our catering! We had Bun Me Up cater our lunch in celebration of AAPI month in the office and they did everything from beginning to end. The meal was an absolute hit and the portions were very generous and so delicious. We will definitely be having them back!

I hired Bun Me Up for an event at the senior living community I work at and it was such a huge hit. The team worked with the space we provided them and were incredibly friendly and accommodating to our residents. According to the residents, the food was delicious- I didn't get a chance to try it, since they ran out of the food before the allotted time ran out! Highly recommend this team for your event.

Great tasting fresh buns. Lots of good flavors. Looking forward to trying more.
Update: tried the braised pork plate. It was amazing. Good balance of the pork, fresh flavorful veggies, and just the right amount of rice.

If you're looking for a fun, unique, and incredibly accommodating caterer, look no further than Bun Me Up! We were thoroughly impressed by their exceptional service and delicious selection of food. Not only did they offer a wide variety of options, including a great selection of vegan choices, but the owner went above and beyond to ensure that our guests' many food allergies and restrictions were fully accommodated. The attention to detail was outstanding!
One of the highlights was the chafing service. Bun Me Up not only set everything up beautifully, but they also took care of the breakdown afterward, making everything incredibly seamless for us. It was clear that they truly care about providing an excellent experience for their clients.
Overall, we highly recommend Bun Me Up to anyone looking for a caterer who works tirelessly to please and deliver a memorable, tasty, and stress-free event. You won’t be disappointed!

Tried their food at a local market. We only ate from this vendor. We got food poisoning that evening. Seems like the restaurant could be okay but take precaution for their pop-up booth.
Edit to provide details: tried the bao variety pack ($30) at the Lantern Festival in downtown Sunnyvale
We ordered catering service for our child's first birthday party. Josh was great in preparing food for both kids and adults. Everyone who tried the food commented on how great it tasted. The sauces and meat quality were top notch and we'll be sure to order again for events in the future!

We recently had Bun Me Up cater our son's birthday party, and it was an incredible experience from start to finish! The buns were absolutely delicious—each one perfectly flavored and paired with their amazing special sauce, which was a huge hit. All the other dishes were just as popular, and our guests couldn’t stop raving about how unique and delicious everything was, with many saying they’d never had anything like it before.
Josh worked closely with me throughout the planning process, going back and forth to create the perfect menu and ensuring we had just the right amount of food for our guests. His attention to detail and flexibility in accommodating changes to the guest count made the entire experience so easy and stress-free. He even took care of specific dietary restrictions, which was a huge plus!
On the day of the party, Josh and his fantastic team handled everything seamlessly. The setup and cleanup were quick and handled entirely by them. They thoughtfully arranged each dish in chafing dishes with black linens, making everything look amazing. Their professionalism and attention to detail allowed us to fully enjoy the celebration without worrying about a thing.
We couldn’t be happier with the experience and will absolutely use Bun Me Up again for future events. We’re already missing the food and can’t wait for the next occasion to work with them!

Really wonderful. Colorful presentation of food, they even provided a couple little menu cards so my colleagues could tell which protein was in each tray. My colleagues loved the food, I'm definitely Bun Me Up on our rotation for company meals.

Amazing buns and the best service! We catered here for our wedding, and everything went so smoothly with communication and delivery. They asked us how we wanted them to setup the food and even offered to get us dairy-free buns to accommodate for allergies. Our guests raved about the buns and wanted to know where we got them from so they could get more!

Huge fan of Bun Me Up! Everyone I've ordered the food for (individual bowls, plates, and buns) has raved about how tasty the items were and how fresh everything was! The owner, Josh, is super communicative and quick to respond to my inquiries and constant questions. Would 100% order from here again.

Had their food at a catered event. 5 stars for the creativity of using a soft fluffy bun as the taco shell and filling it with delicious Asian inspired meats and toppings. Definitely an Asian fusion concept. If you like Asian food, especially with flavoring/seasoning on the slightly higher side, give this place a try.

5+ experiences over the last couple of years. This time was for a family meal but I usually like getting it as catering for events I do with a school. It's always the first item to run out at these events, so that should tell you something. Great taste and pretty unique.
