I recently had the pleasure of enjoying food from Filipino Fusion Gayuma Catering, 401 Weber St N, Waterloo, and I was absolutely impressed by both the quality and the flavour of their dishes. Every bite reflected care, balance, and authenticity with a creative twist that made the meal unforgettable.
The Spicy Bulgogi Pork with Kimchi and Zucchini was a standout. The pork was perfectly tender, marinated in a flavorful sauce that hit the ideal balance of heat and sweetness. The spice built gradually but never overwhelmed, pairing beautifully with the crunch and tang of the kimchi. The zucchini added a refreshing, slightly sweet contrast that tied the whole dish together — a vibrant, well-rounded fusion of flavours.
The Chicken Lemongrass with Rice was equally impressive. The chicken was juicy, aromatic, and infused with the bright, citrusy notes of lemongrass. It was comforting yet exciting — the kind of dish that makes you stop after the first bite and smile. The rice was cooked just right, absorbing the savoury juices from the chicken for a truly satisfying finish.
Overall, Filipino Gayuma Catering delivered an exceptional experience. The food was flavorful, fresh, and clearly made with love and attention to detail. I would highly recommend them for any event or gathering — your guests will be raving about the food long after the last bite!

Jinny & Kat catered our wedding last weekend and we couldn't be happier with the experience! We were able to customize our food selections to ensure dietary restrictions were covered, which was a huge benefit as a celiac. They are so lovely to work with and our guests couldn't stop raving about how great the food was. We would highly recommend them for your catering needs.

Kat and Jimmy did an amazing job catering our wedding. They helped us come up with a menu and we're able to make adjustments to fit our needs. Our guests couldn't stop raving about the food and were all beyond stuffed. On top of all that they are an absolute delight to be around! I highly recommend them for your catering needs.

This is my third time ordering from Gayuma and their food never disappoints! Their new years menu was delicious! And they partnered with someone for their dessert and I ordered their lotus cheesecake which was absolutely creamy and delicious. Food is easy to order and pick up and it’s perfect for a Friday night in at home or to take to a weekend get together. Yum yum!

Food was fantastic but just quite pricey.

I picked up one of their meal boxes yesterday. It's advertised to feed 2-3 people, which is pretty accurate. It consisted of 4 sandwiches (2 chicken Katsu sliders and 2, 5 spice pork bahn-mi sliders) a pile of delicious veggie Cantonese noodles and a serving of crispy pork belly. First I have to say that the chicken sliders are huge for a slider. The chicken was thick, crispy and juicy, well seasoned and topped with a wonderful coleslaw. (All sauces are made in house) Next, the 5 spice pork was tender and flavourful. The noodles were cooked, seasoned and garnished perfectly. The detail made by cutting the carrots like flowers and the long diagonal sliced cucumbers was very pleasing to the eyes. The pickle daikon had me coming back for more. Now to the pork belly. Perfect, juicy, meaty, salty with an amazing crunchy skin! I dipped a portion in some of the hot sauce, which was delicious but the pork belly really doesn't need anything, it does well on its own. Kat and Jin have a passion for their food and it shows. I appreciate how they make almost everything themselves and for the few items they don't make (breads, pastries) they collaborate with other local businesses. Local supporting local makes my heart smile. I'm looking forward to my next boxed meal adventure from them. Follow them on Instagram for updates on menu items. Everything is takeout. Order ahead, schedule a pickup time. Pickup was fast and easy. They are very organized.
Parking: The pickup door is at the middle of the back of the building.

The ladies at Gayuma catered our wedding reception last weekend and it was an absolutely fabulous meal. They worked within our budget, gave great suggestions and we had so many positive comments on the food from our guests. You certainly do not walk away hungry if they cater one of your events! They were very generous with their portions and their time. Thank you for everything. We would highly recommend them if you need catering for an event.

I received my first order from Gayuma and I was very impressed with the quantity, quality and price of the food. The overall experience dealing with the staff was fabulous and I look forward to placing another order in the near future.
Incredible food - our box was all chicken dishes but completely different flavours, all delicious. Everything was perfectly cooked and seasoned, beautifully crafted. I can't wait to try more of their food!
