I found out about Medina's through an online search back in 2015. I used them in August of that year for my daughters first birthday and they were amazing! I used them again this weekend for my other daughters birthday and the food was a hit! Everything was super good, and mind you, I'm super picky about Mexican food. In 2015 I had them for "taqueros" where they served my guests. This time, I got the taco buffet for a small group of 25 guests and everyone loved the food. I will definitely use them again in the very near future. Easy to communicate with, on time for delivery

I would not recommend utilizing Medina Catering - the service is received was very poor and my experience was extremely stressful (which is sad as the food was quite good).
My family had contracted with them to do the catering for my son's birthday.
On the day of the party - they did not arrive at the expected time nor did they reach out to us to share that they were going to be late. We called and even attempted to email them - when I finally got a hold of someone he hung up on me. To be fair, he did say he couldn't talk because he was at another event but I simply asked him if he

Medina's Catering was a real life saver! I had an important event for 60 people and had to make a last minute catering change due to an unreliable other vendor. Joanna was very patient with me as I melted down about the stress of having to find a new caterer last minute the night before and prepared a quote that was both a large spread and at a great price. We had everything squared away quickly too!
The team that came to set up our taco bar were so nice and polite and attentive (and arrived with plenty of time to set up before the party started). The serving tables were decorated so beautifully

We, too, recently had a terrible experience with Medina's Catering. They arrived 1 1/2 hours late from the scheduled time, with no text or phone call to inform us. This required us to go out and get some food for our hungry guests. The service was inadequate, food was lukewarn (beans actually were cold), and other food items missing (churros). Their lack of communication caused so much anxiety and stress during what was supposed to have been a joyous 1 year birthday celebration. We will never use this catering service again.

One star is way too kind. READ THIS BEFORE YOU BOOK! About 10 days ago they were booked for an event, a celebration of life with 100+ people. When the time came for them to show up, they ghosted us. After putting down a $1300 deposit, signing a contract and them saying "they're on their way"... nothing, radio silence. So we had to go to a restaurant down the street to get food for the guests after waiting over an hour for ANY communication. After calling them 20+ times with no answer, they show up about 2 hours late with uncooked food, we sent them away because they were no longer

We hired Medina's to cater a taco bar at our casual, pre-wedding picnic and couldn't have been happier with their service. I worked with them to finalize all details two weeks before our event and they were responsive and communicative. On the day of our event, I received a call confirming the location. Their team of two showed up right on time and quickly arranged a beautiful buffet table and onsite cooking space. Their team was warm and friendly, made the set-up and cooking look effortless, and were extremely accommodating of our group's needs. Our guests raved about the different

Minimum for order is 25 people (for pick up or delivery, not for a server to cook on site). Communication is slow (took a few days to get response) but staff is friendly. Contract for order was received a day before my party, which made me nervous. I originally selected beef and chicken as my meat choices but changed it to beef and pork when I spoke to Joanna over the phone a few days before the party. Since I received the contract the evening before the party, I was rushed (and distracted by prepping for the party) and didn't read it carefully before signing it, so chicken and beef were

My boyfriend and i have contacted medina's multiple
times trying to request a quote for our gender reveal in october and after being patient waiting for a response the last two weeks, we finally got a hold of him, when we gave him the date of our event, medina says "don't call me back, i don't want you" and hangs up on us.
thinking this was a mistake as we have done nothing wrong to upset anyone, we call back to see if what just happened actually occurred and he declines our call.
guess we will be going with dia de los tacos who responded back to our inquiry within

I just wanted to say thank you to Medina's Catering for your service. Your food was a Big Hit for our daughter party. Everyone was asking for your information so they can book your service for there future event. The setting was beautiful with purple flowers and purple clothes just as I asked for, the food was so good and your cooks were very polite and Professional. I love how they set up a Sanitize station so our guests can sanitize before getting there food. will Definitely be using your services again for any future events. To the owner who always answered my calls, and if I had any questions

Medina's catering is Awesome! They catered lunch for my office of 45 people. They showed up friendly and professional and boy, did they delivered for us! The food is delicious. To be brutally honest when served catered lunch it usually has a heavy trough vibe to it. Not with Medina's they get it. The food was good and they even brought some decorations. The small details count and they were welcoming. They served us their Taco Bar Guests Buffet Style for 45 people. The meat choices we were given: Beef-Asada which was cooked to perfection and was not chewy or fatty. Chicken

Medina's catering is the BEST! This is the third time we have had the pleasure of the staff preparing a fabulous meal for us . This time we were in a city park , they arrived at the minute they said they would be there and fed 75 people who were celebrating a high school reunion. The staff is fabulous and the food brought raves from the crowd.
Thank you Medinas, we will see you again!

These folks are professional, nice and prepare and serve delicious food. The Medina's team just left our building where we hosted our tenants to a fun lunch of delicious fajitas, enchiladas, rice, beans, churros and more. The food, as usual, was awesome. The team of on-site workers were all smiles, courteous and very pleasant. We've had Medina's 4-times now and they are PERFECT.
They put it all together--aside from the delicious food, the team set up all tables, chairs, tents, decorations, plates, cutlery, napkins, drinks and take it all down so the client doesn't have

We are so happy we hired Medina's Catering.
Everything from their set up, service, presentation and food was wonderful. I requested quotes from multiple caterers and Medina's provided the most value for what they offered. Email correspondences with them was quick and efficient.
Our guests were really impressed with their professionalism and importantly their tacos! We loved that they offered a variety of meat selections and sides. Bonus was their cream filled churros!
We would definitely hire them again. Thank you Medina's Catering!

Mr. Medina did a wonderful job for me at my Kaiser Wellness Festival that I was in charge of that fed 3,800 people that was free for our employees and their families. We were unsure of the exact amount of people so we had to increase our order a few times but Mr. Medina and his office staff Mary and Jenny were always very accommodating and responsive.
This was the first year we had changed our caterer in years and Mr. Medina was very understanding and invited me and my colleague to one of his other events at a hospital to check it out and also let us do a taste testing for our leadership and

I'm very proud and happy to say the turn out of my daughter's baby shower yesterday was a success with the assistance of Medina's Catering . Food was amazing !They were very punctual! They called me prior to confirm my party. I was notified when in route, and they also arrived before schedule , which was great . The set up was very organized and beautiful which matched the theme colors of the baby shower . The servers were very professional and polite . This is a family owned business and I must say they are doing an amazing job. At the end of the event Jesus came out personally

Medina's Catering process was very pleasant. Jesus returned my call request, communicated with his assistant to send me menus, set up food tasting (which was pretty awesome, practically had a nice dinner for two !), finalized details prior to our party, and delivered stellar and professional service at my son's baptism.
Now for the more interesting information.. the food! We ordered a Mexican/American combo. Excellent entrees: steak a la Mexicana, chile verde, chicken marsala, spaghetti w/meatballs. Complimenting sides: green salad, roasted veggies, dinner rolls, chips & salsa.
