We’ve used Tony’s Caters for the past three years for our annual event at the Computer History Museum. Not only is the food delicious, but his staff always make sure everything is top notch. Knowing his crew is handling all setup and catering, puts our mind at ease because we know all will be great!

We loved working with Tony Caters/Smashing Dishes on our latest big event in the Bay Area! As event planners, BB Events works with a ton of catering companies and you absolutely nailed it. From the curation of the menu and the collaborative planning to the thoughtful set up and delightful service, it was an absolute pleasure to partner on this momentous event. Event with the event set up on a construction site you were ready for all the elements and potential challenges. Thank you to your wonderful team and the delicious food! We highly recommend Tony Caters/Smashing Dishes for any catering needs.

Amazing! Tony, Josh and team are great! With decades of catering experience, so impressed and love their food! These are must have’s: biscuit & brisket, shrimp on cracker, cookie (Tony’s mum’s recipe cookie). They’re friendly, professional and their food is soooo good! Highly recommend Tony’s Catering & Smashing Dishes.

Working with Tony and his team has made event planning for our annual fundraiser and other special events a breeze!

We've always loved the Winchester Mystery House, and it's definitely one of the coolest places in San Jose. We were thrilled to learn that private events were available again, and even happier to work with Smashing Dishes/Tony Caters. We were incredibly impressed and even pretty touched at how willing the Smashing Dishes team was to work with our budget, preferences, and dietary needs. Got a huge amount of comments from our guests on how good the food was, and how gorgeous the venue was. All of the staff was absolutely incredible, but we'd like to give a special shoutout to Vanessa, Sergio, Angelica, and Juan. They were absolutely superb–friendly, professional, courteous, and super competent. Would happily recommend Smashing Dishes/Tony Caters to anyone considering an event!

Super fresh boxed lunches. The sandwiches were a hit with our staff. The portion was perfect and filling. Thanks!

Carla McClure

Had a great chicken salad sandwich that came with a cookie and chips. My coworker really enjoyed a vegetarian sandwich.

The cookies are divine.

On the other hand, the other food is hit or miss.

I recently attended a San Jose Chamber of Commerce event, and the catering was superb. The food was delicious, and the spread was beautifully organized. Great job Tony Caters!

The food is delicious! portions are enough for the number of people. He has different options to choose and he's always trying something new! He has special dishes for children. My son loves Tony's cousine!! Highly recommended !!

I ordered my parents the Easter holiday meal and they raved for days about how good everything was, especially the ham and mashed potatoes. I thought it was terrific value as well....four people were left feeling full and there were leftovers too. I have ordered the weekly meals before as well and they are always a hit and very plentiful.

Wonderful friendly service. Excellent food.

We ordered a premium holiday dinner and it was very disappointing overall. On the plus side the box it came in was very nice and the packaging was good. The main course was good though inconsistent with sizing, one was half the size of the other, but the sides were very small and one was burned. We paid nearly $70 per person for the premium meal and had to supplement with additional food to have enough and had to toss one of the sides. For 4 meals we received 4 dinner rolls the size of a half dollar. Was hoping to find a gem to order a holiday meal when not wanting to cook for only 4 but unfortunately we were not impressed for the cost.

Everything was excellent! Strong flavorful smoke taste! Best ribs I've had in years! Crispy outside, tender juicy inside! Brisket fell apart through my fork. Beans and mac are very good. Texas toast was buttery and crispy but soft. Spicy BBQ sauce and house BBQ was amazing! Best hidden gem I've found in a decade. And did I mention, the staff is wonderful! Friendly and welcoming! Highly recommended!
