I went to a wedding that was catered by Purple Fig and found them to provide some of the best food and service. Lina was a delight as she made sure everyone was served. I would highly recommend her and the Purple Fig. more

We hired Lina for our wedding which was very relaxed so we hoped that the reviews wouldn't apply to our low maintenance affair. She was an hour and a half late, brought half of the food we ordered/ paid for and to top it off she cried once she realized how little food she had brought. The food was not great, for example there was an offensive amount of garlic used and the focaccia sandwiches were made on gross Safeway bread and not on focaccia. To make matters worse, Lina would not respond to our phone calls or emails when we tried to figure out what happened. It was a huge mistake to hire Purple Fig Catering - you should not do the same. more

Where do I begin, I met with Lina (the owner of the Purple Fig) on numerous occasions to make sure that all was in order for our wedding day......here comes the day, not enough food, her children were at the event until she informed my bride that the vaccum is downstairs, and to be sure to have all of the table cloths placed in a certian spot....hummm, I do not ever recall part of her services being that we clean up on our wedding day.....I had to pay four people to stay and clean up so my bride and I could leave for our honeymoon. Great Building for the ceremony, but Lina and her staff, which consisted of one girl, were not able to do anything...Shame on you for hooking people to believe one thing about your services then when it came down to it........it was all just an opticial illusion!! Sad to say, but if you and your bride are considering going through the Purple Fig for anything, please reconsider.......as you too might be disappointed. Pros: Lina's presention of our wedding day was going to be awesome Cons: However, have you ever had to be your own clean up committee more

Where do I begin... I will begin with a positive note. This catering company makes outstanding food. If you are looking for a meal that you will be completely satisfied with, this is the place to bring your business. That is if you can deal with the owner being late to every meeting, yelling at your family during the wedding reception, or completely not following through with promises. You have to understand where I am coming from before you can get a complete picture. I didn't just utilize the catering services of the Purple Fig, we rented the chapel the company is housed out of. The building is a very old, quaint little chapel and will work for weddings no larger than 50 people. The purple fig is very well priced so I didn't go into this deal with high expectations. But when the owner and head chef yells at my guests I draw the line. When the owner and head chef is rude to my bride when she asks to move a table just because she will have to rearrange the table configuration, I draw the line. I do have good things to say about this company, the food was outstanding and they are very well priced. But take EXTREME CAUTION in trusting your wedding day to this company in any aspect other than food. Pros: Food was really good. Cons: Rude staff, untrustworthy, moody, very unprofessional more

My husband and I have just had our Chinese tea ceremony at our backyard, had Purple Fig to cater for the food. Unfortunately due to their too many commitments on the same day, our service was really bad. more

Our caterers paid attention to every detail of our wedding. Our the food presentation was awsome and they even went the extra mile to make sure all of our guest received the extra attention. The chicken was moist and the veggies were crisp the food was fabulous. Lina was on top of all the details. I would highly reccomand them to anyone who is getting married. Pros: The staff very bubbly, kind and very professional more

My wedding was nearly ruined by purple fig. They were an hour late, making the entire wedding late. They did not deliver the items that were agreed on, in a contract. The grooms mother and mine spent most of their time argueing with Lina and her poorly trained ""staff"", who were acctually her daughter and some friends that really knew nothing about catering. There were some food saftey violations and I doubt they even have food handle permits. When told things they were doing wrong they were defensive and rude, they were also rude toward my guests and wedding party. They hardly set up, (my maid of honor and bridesmaid did most of that for them) and did a poor job of cleaning up. Please do not select them for your event, it will end up disasterouse. Cons: everything more
