Fraiche did a fabulous job catering our holiday party this year. Yvonne was very pleasant to work with and responsive, and their 5-star rating on Yelp is well-deserved. We had the risotto bar with shrimp & short ribs and fish, chicken and beef tacos. Everything was delicious, all the guests were happy. Highly recommend Fraiche.

A huge thanks to the Fraiche Catering chefs and servers for a wonderful experience!! We scheduled a last minute four-course dinner, and they executed each detail flawlessly. Everything was cooked to perfection and the presentation was beautiful. The servers went above and beyond and made sure all of the guests were well taken care of. We will definitely use Fraiche Catering's services again.

I had a beautiful Father's Day meal delivered yesterday from Fraiche Catering. I've been to an event catered by Fraiche and was so impressed with the food. When I found out they were doing family meals during Covid shelter in place, I thought I'd definitely give them a try. What better time than to order a meal to celebrate Father's Day. The online order process was really simple and I received an immediate confirmation email with a delivery window. I called a few days later in the evening to convey a food allergy, and they called me back the following morning to discuss and

Fraiche Catering helped us throw an incredible book launch event at a client's home back in the fall, and we cannot wait for our next event to work with them again!
Rachel helped craft a menu tailored to match the book's purpose of 'essential well being' with a delicious and filling array of food. Dessert was even better. And best of all... you wouldn't have even known they were there after everyone was gone--they left everything spotless.
A+ to Fraiche, cannot recommend more!

I have had the pleasure of working with Fraiche since 2011 and they are an incredible, well-oiled machine! They continue to revamp and add to their menu offerings, which makes them dynamic for a wide range of clientele. They have the style and attention to detail that weddings require and their corporate packages are streamlined and approachable. Working with Fraiche is always a warm, full-service experience and we look forward to more collaborations in the future.

I had the absolute best experience working with Fraiche Catering! They catered my baby shower with about 40 people and were so helpful planning and giving direction when I definitely didn't have a vision. On the day of, they were on time and went above and beyond to even help us rearrange furniture so that the set up made sense. Not to mention the food was AMAZING! Their Double Dipped Chocolate Souffle Brownie Bites (GF too!) were heavenly. Clean up / pick up was easy too. I'd love to work with them again!

Christi and team were beyond amazing!! Our company threw a New Year's Bash in Oakland, and everything was perfect. From the start, Christi was so easy to work with and was able to match our vision with food suggestions. All of it was delicious, but everyone was especially raving about the risotto station... super tasty! On top of that, her team was very helpful and brought their A-game. I'm looking forward to booking them again for our next event.

Fraiche catered our wedding in August at the Conservatory of Flowers and everything they did was perfect! We worked with Christi and she was wonderful. She handled so much - not just food and beverages, but also tables and linens for two separate spaces, layout, timelines, wedding favors, etc. Planning went very smoothly and communication was timely.
The food was amazing. We had a family-style dinner service and we heard from all of our guests that the food was a highlight. Christi and the Fraiche team also executed our beverage service exactly the way we wanted it, with specialty cocktails and

I am late in my review, but very happy to have worked with this amazing team of professionals on a company event this past November. I was struggling to get my work group's holiday event organized after traveling. To make things more complicated, we were in the middle of a last minute venue change. I wasn't sure what we could swing at that point, but shortly after I reached out to Fraiche, I received a phone call. This was the only call out of at least five different companies I had contacted. That would be the first brownie point to be followed by many others. After speaking with the

Hiring Fraiche to cater my wedding was the best decision I made in the entire planning process. Rachel and Mia were phenomenal!
Leading up to my wedding, Rachel helped craft the menu, arrange tastings, and schedule rental and permit appointments. She was friendly, responsive and detail-oriented. Every interaction with her left me feeling like I was in good hands.
During my event, Rachel, Mia and the the entire Fraiche team were attentive and organized. The food was incredible, and I don't say that lightly. I'm a picky eater with multiple food allergies and everything tasted great

We've used Fraiche Catering for multiple corporate and personal events. Sheena, Danielle and the rest of the team are super professional, quick to respond, flexible and accommodating. Their staff is always timely and proactive. Food display is beautiful and colorful.. and tastes delicious too. We've used them for lunch meetings, cocktail parties, and formal dinners... Highly recommend!

Fraiche team arrived on time, were well-prepared and set up easily. From a personal perspective, they were very kind and really helped in ways we couldn't have predicted. Just before the guest arrived, the puppy messed his crate, which the team pitched in to clean up. The puppy also required care and the team took the puppy for walks, etc... Unbelievably service focused.

Food was solid. Cheese and fruit assortment was gorgeous.
4 people was too many service people for a party of 8. However, the team worked seamlessly without

Thank you to Fraiche for an amazing event we had in San Francisco last week! I wanted to set up something simple for a speaker event with lite bites & drinks and they executed my vision perfectly. We had this amazing poke bar set up that our team loved + a comfort food station that had all of the favorites...mac n cheese bites, mini burgers, waffle fries, etc. HUGE HIT! Can't wait to use them again, their staff are so helpful and amazing too they even helped me set up chairs, florals, etc. Great team!

Rachel, Mia, and the whole Fraiche team did an amazing job catering our wedding. They developed an entire menu totally personalized for our brunch (we requested "Southern/Jewish/California" flavors, and they took that and created so many beautiful, delicious dishes--including shakshuka, mini-chicken & waffles, a pancake trio--you get the picture).
It was the best wedding food I've ever had, and our guests couldn't stop raving about it. They also pulled the whole thing together in a tight timeframe, were incredibly patient and helped us coordinate other vendors as well

Fraiche catered a beautiful outdoor event for me. They helped me make choices for food, drink, decorations, duration and everything else. They were professional, executed flawlessly and the food of course, stole the show.
I was nervous about throwing such a large event, and they eased my fears and took exceptional care of me and my guests. I'd highly recommend them - 5 stars.

I booked them to cater my husband's birthday party for 30 people. I chose a menu and offered to pay by credit card. They told me they'd send me a contract by email and I could pay then.
No email arrived so the next week I started calling - NO return call after 2 calls/messages.
The next day I started emailing them. At 5:24 p.m. I got a return email telling me they had booked another bigger event and wouldn't be able to do my party! They referred me to 2 other caterers but didn't provide contact information (and both those caterers were booked already) or check their availability

If you are searching for a great caterer who is easy to work with and makes delicious food, look no further than Fraiche. They catered my 100 person wedding in San Francisco a month ago and every single aspect of the night was perfect.

She helped my husband and I create a menu for the wedding that was uniquely us: a hot dog and fries bar, short ribs, fried chicken, and mac & cheese.

I've been working with Fraiche Catering for over a year now for corporate and private events I organize. Whenever I have to recommend a caterer to a client, it's definitely Fraiche.
Danielle is absolutely amazing & dynamic and so is their entire team. Fraiche's food is refined, delicious and of course, super fresh. Their staff is some of the most professional I've ever seen.
Whenever Fraiche is on my team, I know we can only succeed. We only receive extremely positive feedback from our clients. Highly recommend their services!

We used Fraiche catering for our small (40 person) wedding in October 2015. Overall, we were very pleased with the food and service that Fraiche provided. We worked most closely with Danielle, and found her to be very responsive by phone/email. The food tasting was a total blast--it was awesome to be wined and dined as they helped us select our delicious, seasonal menu. Our wedding guests really enjoyed the food, especially the desserts (the crème brûlée puffs were an especially big hit).

It has been three months since my wedding (July 2014) and guests are STILL coming to me to let me know that they have never had better food at a wedding- specifically, each appetizer (especially the scallops and the chicken pops), the cheese plates, the heirloom tomato salad stacked, each entree- the pancetta wrapped filet mignon and the miso butterfish, and the service... So pretty much everything. Seriously, every guest I have spoken to after the wedding has commented on the delicious food- and these are Bay Area/SF guests who are used to some gooood food!
