We threw a combined 35th anniversary and milestone birthdays party on Saturday. Every service provided by First Class Catering was flawless. Our guests raved about the food (we loved it) and the service was stellar. I can't say enough good things about them but will add that I highly recommend using this service for your next event.

We decided, at the last minute, to have a 70th Birthday party for 40 guests. I mean literally 2 weeks prior to the event I was looking for a caterer. I found Michael's company "First Class Catering Service" on the internet and sent him a message. The rest is history. He and his assistant Regina handled the ordering and placement of tables, chairs, linens, umbrellas not to mention the location and presentation of various food stations. Rave Reviews from myself and all of our guests!! Definately a 5 Star Company.

Michael Alcantar catered my son's wedding on Halloween 2015. He was prompt, efficient and we barely knew he was there. He set up quietly & quickly. We had a Mexican buffet. Everyone raved about the food!! It was excellent!! We had chicken & beef fajitas, cheese enchiladas, salad, guacamole.... It was a big hit!! I highly recommend Michael for your event! My next event, I am trying his Italian fare!

Excellent experience. We hired 1st class catering for Mexican food for a wedding rehearsal dinner. Michael is very easy to communicate with and responds quickly. All the pre-event coordination was seamless, and the day of was even better. Michael delivered the food early, helped us set it up and get the chaffing dishes situated, and left plenty of disposable supplies for the meal. Best part was the Mexican food was delicious! All of our guests raved about it. Definitely would hire him again!
