It was held at a local restaurant in San Francisco. She came over and did a tasting for us before we chose her. We loved the food and her professional attitude immediately. The event itself was a huge success. Her wait staff passed around appetizers; they were all professionally dressed in black and white. The main courses were perfect – roast beef and salmon. The appetizers were samosas and chicken satay, and Ratatouille and baked cauliflower with rice for the veggies. There was chicken tenders and mac and cheese for the kids… so it was a mix of everything! My wife and i did not have to worry about anything during the entire event and our guests were really impressed! ~Vikram K.
Private Dinner: Thank you for the lovely dinner. On a scale of 1 to 10, it was a more than perfect 11! From start to finish, we enjoyed it all. The salad was excellent. So many places treat the salads as after thoughts, yours, however, really showed attention to detail- loved the mix of flavors. And then came the ravioli, chicken and asparagus. It was all so good. I usually don’t take seconds but I couldn’t pass on having another wonderful bite. We were so stuffed, we had to wait until 10pm to try the desert. It was worth the wait! ~Monica & Mark S.
Cocktail Event: Really fun working with Polina and her team. She was very respectful of our dietary restrictions and produced some amazingly yummy dishes for the paleo-ites and vegetarians in our group. Highly recommend this team. ~S.N.
Private Event: I want to thank you again for the great food and all your hard work. Everyone thought you were great! Thanks Again! ~Sonia L.
Baby Shower: I had the pleasure to host a party that Polina {Svetlana Catering} catered. Every aspect of the experience was far beyond expectation. All the staff was completely professional and insured every detail was covered. The food was incredible. The Beef Bulgogi and coconut shrimp were unique and tasty, while the Pirogi {Piroshki} were one of the best catered dishes I have ever had. I have recommended Polina to anyone I know who needs a caterer and will use her team in the future. ~Dave C.
Drop-off Dinner for Two: I just wanted to send a quick note and thank you for all the wonderful food today. Everything was spectacular and enjoyed by all. Thank you so much! ~Margo L.
Private Event: I had the pleasure of dining on the vegetarian lasagna from Svetlana Catering. I have never had anything like it. The dish was outstanding and as a huge lasagna fan, I can say it’s my new favorite! If you want fresh, delicious, gourmet food made with love, try Svetlana! Unlike anything else. ~Nick S.
Baby Shower: The food was unbelievable–beautifully presented and absolutely delicious. We got so many compliments, and I have been contacted several times (and months later) from guests requesting Polina’s contact information. Her food was that memorable! Polina delivered on all fronts: she came in under budget, she and her staff were on time, organized, incredibly professional and customer service oriented. Everything was impeccable. I highly recommend that you hire Polina to cater your next event. ~Sara R.
Summer Barbecue: I booked Svetlana Catering to plan and execute a BBQ in honor of my parents who were visiting from out of town. Polina, the owner, is wonderful to work with. She worked with me to plan everything, and arranged for needed tables, table cloths, chafers, ice bins, and bar supplies. We had a wonderful spread, including two notable dishes – pulled pork and a delicious miso and bacon corn dish. I was really glad to find Svetlana Catering. Polina worked with our parameters to make event a great experience for my parents and friends. I highly recommend them. ~Tom W.
