The little ways you
helped us relax and calm down were so
appreciated…the way you found
things you needed by yourselves, the
way you read my mind and took over the
final set up and organization…Wow! What
a great team you are and what yummy food
you create! Thank you so much. - Debbie
and Rob
Your staff was great

in all a “RAD” evening! -- Shannon
Every time I called

I just want you all to know how magical and wonderfal Friday evening's party was. I know you all worked so hard and the end result was amazing. Food was to perfection this year. Service was great and I think the long tables made it so much easier for everyone to get around. I loved the family style service. - Jane and all the Friends of Jennifer!

If you want the perfect event with smooth sailing from start to finish be sure to call on Melissa Teaff Catering. We live in a different area and arranged our 40th anniversary party with Melissa at a wonderful Napa area winery. She and her staff met every request graciously. Bob and I and all our guests truly had the time of our lives because it was so well planned and executed. Set up, food, service and clean up were all done impeccably. All we did was show up and have fun - does it getter any better than this? Absolutely not! We would weep copiously if she was already booked next time we want to do something. Thanks so much, - Bob and Sandy Scrivano
Wow! That is the first word that comes to mind to describe the food you presented for Jen and Brady's Wedding. You really gave our guests an entire new perspecitive on wedding food, and they are STILL talking about it! - Beth Lucas
Karo and I want to
thank you for all your help with Heather’s
and Jason’s wedding. Everyone
had a wonderful time and we had raving
reviews of the food and service. As
always, you are the BEST! We will stay
in touch for future events.

Alec and I could
not have been happier with the way everything
at the wedding turned out. I can’t
tell you how many compliments we received
from guests of every age concerning the
food and its service. The vegetarians
in particular raved about their main
course since often they are neglected. And,
as you probably know, more than one guest
wanted the recipe for the mushroom hors’s
d’oeuvres.
I had heard from
many recent brides that I would not have
time to eat; they were wrong. I
ate everything and thoroughly enjoyed
the food from the first to the last. Thanks
so much.

I can't tell you enough how impressed I was with your team and the work they did at our event. It was a tremendous undertaking. We received many compliments on your food and your waiters. I personally enjoyed working with them and found them to be very professional, personable, and had greaty energy. Please extend my gratitude to your cooks, waiters, and staff.
Without your knowledge, generosity, patience and dedication to our event, I know it wouldn't have gone nearly as smooth. Thank you so much for all you've done for George Mark Children's House. - Jennifer Fisher, Communications Coordinator, George Mark Children's Fund
My banks and I have used the services of Melissa Teaff Catering almost exclusively for all our catering needs for over fifteen years. Whether we have called on their services to cater Charter Oak Bank Board Meetings, customer appreciation events, staff meetings or executive management meetings, they have proved there is no event too large or too small for their skills. It is a relief to know when you have engaged their services that the food and service are no longer a concern.
Their ‘Chef’s Choice’ menus are consistently delicious, abundant, creative, attractively served and unique. Whenever we have cause to special order a menu, they have been presented with the same quality and style. We have also always been pleased by their attention to detail, punctuality and follow up. Again, using Melissa’s services has consistently been a time saver, as well as making an excellent impression on our customers and guests.
Brian J Kelly, President & CEO, Charter Oak Bank
We have worked with
Melissa on our last two Decorator Showcase
events for McGuire Real Estate in San
Francisco as well as a number of special
parties for our most prominent clients. Regarding
Melissa and her staff, the experience
is priceless. Each member of her
team coordinated every detail of each
hosted event with impeccable style. We
cannot say enough good things about the
experience.

Fundraiser: I
have worked with Melissa and her staff
for a number of years, and wish to recommend
them most highly. The entire staff
is most professional, totally reliable,
and totally consistent; the food quality
has always been high quality (and received
raves from my guests).
Most of the events
have been in a category of 30 to 50,
with some reaching up to 100, including
sit-down dinners, buffets and cocktail
parties.
I am aware that she
has handled events of 500 or more, and
I know that any event undertakes, she
will handle in the same professional
manner, which has always been her standard
over the many years.

Summer
Party: When my husband and
I decided to have a summer party, there
was no question that you would be our
caterer. After all, I’ve
been eating your delicious food on
broker tours and open houses for many
years in San Francisco. Once
you visited our home, you guided me
through the menu planning and suggested
other vendors for flowers and wine. The
day before the party, the rental company
delivered tables, chairs, plates, glasses,
etc. and promptly came for pick-up
the next day.
We want to compliment
your staff on how wonderful they were
during the party – so attentive
and pleasant to our guests. They
are true professionals in their field. Best
of all, my husband and I were relaxed
and had a great time! Thanks again
for helping make our summer party one
our guests will always remember.
- Laurie
Nierenberg, The Nierenberg Group
Holiday: I
am writing to thank you for helping make
the 2004 Member Holiday Party a huge
success. I thoroughly enjoyed working
with you, from the initial bid process
to the final walk through. The
menu you provided was exquisite and supplied
the ‘wow’ I was
looking for. The service was top
notch; all the servers were very professional,
as was the staff that prepared the food. I
was also very impressed with the immaculate
clean up of the workspace. The
prep kitchen was left in the exact condition
it was in before hand. I have received
many rave reviews from my guests, many
of them saying it was the best member
event COPIA has had. I can’t
thank you enough for your contribution
to such a spectacular event. I
look forward to working with you in the
future.
- Stephanie
N. Smith, COPIA
Anniversary: What
a celebration! David and I are
still absorbing all the details of our
day and just want to thank you again
for the amazing job you did at our 40th
anniversary party. It was certainly
one of the most memorable experiences
in our lives and a great deal of the
credit goes to you.
The food was outstanding – everyone
loved the salmon and the tenderloin,
the delicious hors d’oeuvres. I
loved the way everything flowed effortlessly. The
staff was top of the line, handling all
with good cheer and cordiality. If
there was something unexpected – dashing
out for ice, handling a very complicated
wine service, changing a table – it
was all adjusted for seamlessly. We
were so relaxed.
Since you have been
part of many of our celebrations, both
business and personal, we were not surprised
at the success of this important event. But,
we definitely felt the extra care and
personal attention that you exhibited
and we want to thank you especially for
that. You are experts at what you
accomplish.

Bat
Mitzvah: Here’s the
basic question – do you want
copies of all the letters, emails,
and raves talking about how lovely
our daughter’s Bat’ mitzvah
looked and how fabulous the food was? The
accolades have been overwhelming.
Not only was the
food and décor superb, but you
were a delight to work with. Thank
you for being so open, creative, and
responsive throughout this whole process. You’re
the best! Thank you again!

I can’t begin
to thank you enough for your outstanding
catering effort on my 40th birthday. My
company has a saying, ‘Quality
is a Universal Language.’ You and
your staff exemplify quality in everything
you do. But, above all, you are
all quality people! I feel like
I have found a really great new friend. All
of my family and friends really enjoyed
your tasty food. We will definitely
have another event at our Constantino
Family Compound on Dry Creek Road.

We wanted to thank
you and your chefs for doing an excellent
job for our rehearsal hors d’oeuvres
party held at Carneros Creek Winery on
October 30th. Not only was the
quality of food remarkable, but also
the way in which you presented everything
was brilliant.
On that night, our
family had no less than four chefs attending
the party. Needless to say, they
were going to be a tough crowd. However,
we had complete confidence in you and
your staff to win them over. And
they did! A lot of compliments
were thrown your way and your chefs deserve
many praises. We will definitely
recommend Melissa Teaff Catering in the
future and we were completely happy about
everything. Again, many thanks
to you and your chef for a job well done.
