Where Creativity Meets Cuisine

At Culinary Eye, no two events are ever the same. We take a uniquely tailored approach—designing everything from the menu to the overall look and feel based on your goals and vision.

Wedding Celebrations

We craft menus that reflect the couple’s story through food—drawing inspiration from their travels, cultural traditions, and cherished family recipes, all while celebrating seasonal, local ingredients.

Corporate Gatherings

Our focus is on creating memorable, engaging experiences that encourage connection and highlight the company’s brand, product, or purpose in meaningful ways.

Special Events

We aim to deliver something deeply personal—an atmosphere that feels intimate, thoughtful, and one-of-a-kind.

Venues That Make Memories

With over 20 years of experience, Culinary Eye is proud to be the exclusive or preferred caterer at some of Northern California’s most spectacular venues. From intimate, understated spaces to grand, luxurious estates, we’ll help you find the perfect backdrop—one that sets the tone, sparks emotion, and makes your heart skip a beat.

At Culinary Eye, we haven’t cracked the code on catering—we just care deeply. About people. About details. About doing things the right way, every time. That’s why we bring relentless care, creativity, and integrity to every event. From the first spark of an idea to the final farewell, we’re by your side—making sure your experience is nothing short of remarkable.

Giving Back, Growing Local

Our commitment extends far beyond the events we produce. At Culinary Eye, we believe in nourishing our community—through food, relationships, and responsibility.

Our founder John has long championed sustainability and community engagement. As former President of the San Francisco/Bay Area chapter of the National Association of Catering & Events, and current board member of the Agricultural Institute of Marin and Fort Mason Center for Arts & Culture, he advocates for strong local food systems and equitable access to fresh, seasonal ingredients.


We proudly source from regional farms and purveyors who share our values, supporting regenerative agriculture and reducing environmental impact. By choosing local and sustainable, we not only craft better food—we invest in a better future for the Bay Area and beyond.
