Our family-owned, family-run business in Fremont, California, catered its first event in 1984. But our roots even run deeper than that. Our history stretches back to Butch Cafe on Front & Clay Streets in San Francisco in the 1940's. Back to the Club 65 at Sixty-Fifth and Broadway Streets in Sacramento in the 1950's.
Back to the Stella Doro Restaurant on Fremont Boulevard in Centerville in the 1960's. And back to the intersection of Highway 680 and Calaveras Boulevard, where during the 1970's and 80's the "red tile roof" marked the location of Calamity Jane's Steakhouse. So, while Vintage catered its first event in 1984, it was Galdino & Josephine, Marge & Grandpa Frank, Sam & Mary, and Dino & Mary Jane who set the table for us today.

We had vintage catering cater my husband's memorial at the elks in Fremont. Gloria and her assistant were on time, the food was was prepared very attractively and tasted delicious. Everything was very functional and they were prompt to come back after the service was over to pick up all the equipment. Gloria helped me get items and the food products out to my car. They went above and beyond. I would use them again and I'm going to let my ladies club know about Vintage catering because they did such a great job. From the beginning, Gloria was very helpful and gave me different options of the menu

Working with Gloria was a breeze. We hosted an event at the Saddle Rack and used her for some country BBQ. We have quite a few vegetarians and I was afraid that we could not find anything bbq themed, but she made an eggplant stack that was a huge hit. She was generous with the portions, and her team stayed close by refilling everything as it got low. She was flexible with the menu and our selections and the pricing was fair. Overall we would love to use Vintage Catering again for our company events. Thank you Gloria & your wonderful team!

I go to their deli at least 2 times a week. I work very close and the prices are very reasonable and the salads and sandwiches are delicious! I usually get the tuna sandwich on rye or their BBQ chicken. Salad. The employees are super nice and you couldn't get better customer service. This place is hidden but once you know where it's located you won't be able to get enough!

Where do I begin with this place! Gloria is nothing short of fantastic! 23 years ago she catered my parents wedding. And last week we had the privilege of her services for our wedding. From our first meeting to our wedding day she was absolutely amazing.
First! She pays attention to all of the tiny details, asks all the right questions and makes sure the couple along with her staff are all prepared and ready for the day of.
Second! She is prompt! Always on time, keeps appointments when booked and she plans ahead for potential road blocks (traffic, parking etc.).
Third! Let's talk food

Vintage Catering ROCKS! Gloria was so professional, organized and responsive. I had no doubt in my mind she would hit it out of the park the night of our company holiday party, and she did not disappoint! The food was DELICIOUS and I cannot believe the amazing deal that we got for a huge holiday buffet for 100 people. Even the venue commented that she was one of the most organized and self-sufficient outside vendors they have ever worked with. If you want someone who will not only provide great food but also great service, give Vintage Catering a call!

I contacted Vintage Catering to cater a 40 person memorial at my home for my Grandmother last week. When I said I thought we'd have 36 and should I round up to 45 or so, she said 40 would be fine and it was more than fine since only 30 showed. They worked with me on ideas for what to serve and even supplied some gluten free bread and cookies for my guests who needed it. I wasn't home when they set up, a friend was, but everything was delivered on time. The food was MORE than enough for even 40 people, as I found out. We still had three gallon bags full of potato salad plus 3 gallon bags

Vintage Catering did an awesome job catering my house party. They prepared 2 entrees, a loaded mixed green salad, asparagus with a balsamic drizzle, and a fresh fruit platter. The food was very tasty and the presentation was lovely. Gloria was professional and so helpful in planning my event. Can't say enough good things about her! The food was delivered on time, hot, with serving spoons, chafers, etc, ready to consume. There were many oohs and ahhs as the guests went through the buffet line. Thank you to the chef and Gloria for a successful dinner party with food that made every guest

I had Vintage Catering cater an event of over 100 people. She was professional, the food was delicious and the presentation of the food was amazing. Now, whenever we have a catered event, everyone wants me to be sure to get Gloria at Vintage Catering and the CEO always asks for additional hummus and their super special potato salad.
Gloria's energy is contagious which makes for a successful event and I know everything will run smoothly.
Thank you Gloria, we think you're great!

I am a frequent here, and I have never been disappointed. Every lunch hour, they have fresh salads and meaty sandwiches ready to go. My favorites are the BBQ chicken spinach salad, and the corned beef special sandwich. The only other thing they can improve on is to offer hot soup more often. They almost never have soup, which is a bummer sometimes.

We chose Vintage catering for our wedding based on internet reviews and also on Gloria's personality. From the beginning she was always prompt to give good advice, not only on food matters of course but also in terms of logistics. She was very responsive, which is definitely a huge plus when you're organizing a wedding from far away as we were.
She organized a tasting meal for my husband and my brother-in-law on short notice (I could not make it unfortunately), and on the day of the wedding Gloria and her team were really efficient and everyone said how much they appreciated the food

Vintage Catering was superb! Worth every penny. They provided the food, staff and equipment for a backyard Engagement Party for 100 people. Everyone thought the food was delicious and the setup (tables, linens, umbrellas, carpet, etc) fabulous. The staff did a super job; they were very nice, competent, hardworking and unobtrusive. I was 100% satisfied with the services from planning through execution and clean-up. It was money well spent.
Gloria (owner) was full of excellent ideas for the menu, decorations, backyard setup, and schedule. She worked directly with the equipment provider and handled

Staff is friendly, good menu, great price, good amount of food! You get free chips and salsa which is nice, but you really don't need to get this as you get quite a bit of food here. I got a chicken sandwhich and it was delicious. It came with black beans, which I normally dont eat and a side of fruit. The honey mustard was good that came with the sandwhich. I would definitely go back here again! This place place has a good amount of seating and there are a couple of tables outside to enjoy sun while you eat. There is also a craft of water next to the door for you to hydrate yourself when

This is a great place (review is for their Deli)..hidden..quite other than a little traffic noise if you are sitting outside. They have pre-made sandwiches and salads, but what I loved was the "Blueprint" burgers..which is you choose the kinda Pattie you want, size of the Pattie, kind of cheese, condiments (upto 4) and the sauce.
It took me 5 mins to decide what I want, but at the end, loved it. I guess I make a good burger for me :-)
