We loved working with Julian and his team for our summer 2023 wedding! We were excited to serve paella because the bride's late grandfather was known for making celebratory paellas for large events, and this felt like a good way to remember him on the big day. Julian honored that sentiment and then some!Julian was very helpful and friendly throughout the process. He helped us understand what was possible with our budget, and he helped us make selections when it came to our table settings. He was friendly and easy to work with throughout the whole process, and he had everything handled when our wedding venue coordinator left her job and someone less familiar with the venue took over.On the day of, Julian and his team were on it! The cocktail hour spread and food were both amazing, and Julian made up plates and had waters ready for the bride and groom right after the ceremony, so we had plenty to snack on while we were having our couple's portraits done. He and his team were cooking up a show, and even let the ring bearer mix some of the paella, which our family got a real kick out of! He also took candid photos throughout the day, which felt like an added bonus. Even now, six months out from the wedding, people are still commenting about how amazing the food was. Our family is trying to come up with other occasions big enough that we could hire Julian again! We wholeheartedly recommend Julian and his team to anyone looking for amazing food.

I can't speak enough about Julian and the service his team provided! From months before the wedding and on the day of, Julian ensure every detail is accounted for and made sure our guests had an amazing experience. Our friends and family had such a great time enjoying the show Julian put up and the amazing food they offered! If you're looking for a caterer that is delicious and unique and will ensure your food will be the talk of the night, this is the company to hire!

Absolutely Fabulous. We had our holiday party for 30. The food was absolutely delicious. The charcuterie table was stunning and abundant with so many tasty options. We had a seafood and meat Paella and they were both fantastic. I'm a bread person and they specifically went to a bakery to get fresh baguettes that were great. Dessert was yummy. The entire staff was friendly and professional. They cleaned up perfectly. My standards are very high and Sensational Paella exceeded my expectations in all categories. Highly recommended and will use them again and again.

Where to start!? Sensational Paella Catering is the absolute best choice you could make for your wedding or ANY special event you’re planning. From our first call, Julian (the owner) had the best energy, amazing communication, and you could tell he truly loves what he does and will always go above and beyond to make your day perfect. We had 3 huge pans of paella (seafood, country style meat, and vegetable), a grazing table (which was a HUGE hit), empanadas (an absolute must) and chocolate churros! Everyone is still talking about how unique and incredible the food was. His team was amazing, everyone was so kind and accommodating and they went above and beyond to make our day special. The food is top quality and the catering team made it all the better. Thank you so much Julian & Sensational Paella Catering- we would love to work with you again in the future and would recommend you to anyone looking for the best catering for their special event!

Amazing group of individuals to work with, excellent customer service. We were planning an event and had to cancel unexpectedly, Julian Borrero was a true professional, kind and understanding. We will use Sensational Paella in the future for sure.

Just had a graduation party at my house with over 60 people. The paella was the highlight of the party. Everyone talked about. The preparation was an entertainment by itself. Changing colors, patterns every time I came into the backyard. The presentation, the serving and of course the taste was top notch. Incredible job done by Julian and his team. Extremely professional from the first time I spoke to him, planning on where to prepare, where to serve. All the guests loved the food and more important, my wife was happy :-)

Julian and his team catered our post-wedding celebration. IT WAS PHENOMENAL. They were so communicative and sincere throughout the planning process with my mother-in-law. She was so excited to finally Julian in person! The charcuterie spread was unbelievable and delicious. We went with 3 paellas for dinner and the presentation blew away all our guests. It was the perfect delectable yet gorgeous (read: instagram-able) option for our Cape Cod party (and a nice variety break from clambakes). I highly recommend Sensational Paella for any gathering, especially if you want something unique :)PS: Thank you Julian for reminding my partner and I to eat! haha

We hired Julian and his team for our wedding in Maine this past summer. WOW! I cannot recommend sensational paella enough.We went for a tasting at his house and were blown away by the food. We did the charcuterie board spread for cocktail hour and WOAH it was unbelievable, it was all anyone could talk about! Everything on the board was tasty and the presentation was magazine worthy. We went with a variety of paella (seafood, vegan, meat, mixta) for dinner and everyone loved it! service was flawless, everyone enjoyed a warm,filling meal! All our guests were raving about how unique and delicious it was, I got a lot of "best meal I've had at a wedding!".Leading up to our wedding Julian was SO helpful, he is very detailed oriented and organized. We were a COVID postponement and he was understanding and flexible to make the logistics of changing the date all work. He is really positive and just a wonderful person to work with.

I can't say enough for Sensational Paella. We hired them to cater a Rehearsal Dinner in Narragansett, RI after my daughter and fiancé taste tested their food in the owners own kitchen. Three Paellas were presented at our event; a meat, seafood and veggie selections for our 75 guests. Everyone raved about the flavors, freshness and presentation. Considerate, professional and talented. LGBTQ friendly.

Sensational Paella was the food provider for a dual 60th birthday party I was DJing at a residential home in Wayland, MA. Right away I was captivated by the delicious smells and aroma while they were cooking. And after eating a meal I can certainly say it was sensational. In addition all of the staff were extremely kind and friendly. I highly recommend them.

Julian and his team catered our wedding and I could not be happier! The food was delicious all around- from the unbelievable work of art that was the charcuterie spread to the star of the show paella itself. Do yourself a favor and book them for your wedding or other event if you're looking for something totally unique and unforgettable!
