Irv (owner) Patrick, and Kieran were all very patient, responsive, and easy to work with.

We would highly recommend Charleston Bay Gourmet for your event. We had our daughters wedding catered by Irv, the owner and chef, Kieran the coordinator and Patrick the manager. The food was EXCEPTIONAL. They met us at Al Hambra venue and helped us understand the process from start to finish.
