Fabulous paella with everything cooked from fresh in front of us. Fresh seafood and an amazing veggie paella. Mini chorizo sausages were a huge hit too. Thank you so much!!

We chose Vamos Paella for our wedding in August, and we couldn't have made a better choice for our catering. Everything was absolutely perfect, with excellent choices for vegans and coeliacs alike. We opted for canapés, paellas, salads and breads and it was all delicious and the timings were spot on. A huge thank you to Melissa and the team for making the whole process so easy and for delivering such incredible food and service on the big day. I recommend to anyone! More...

We used Vamos Paella for our wedding catering. Everything was absolutely perfect. Melissa and her team made everybody feel relaxed and comfortable. They made the whole day very easy for us. The food was exceptional, our friends and family are still talking about, most saying it was the best food they had even eaten at a wedding. Some even say it was the best Paella they have ever eaten! I think we would have to agree with. More...

Vamos Paella catered our wedding in Kent in September, and were totally fabulous. We had a lovely tasting meal at Melissa's house and instantly felt that she and her business partner were going to be calm, capable, warm and provide us with a wonderful feast They were really flexible as we figured out what we wanted, dealt with dietary requirements brilliantly (no sad second-rate veggie/vegan options here! ) and did an utterly heroic job on the day when severe weather meant all plans went totally out of the window. It was very wet and windy, we were horribly behind schedule, and had to change plans (including location) at the last second, but they took it all in their stride, and faultlessly served truly delicious canapes and paella to 130 of us, staying later than planned to accommodate our changed timings, and generally being super-supportive and cheerful even in the eye of the (metaphorical and literal) storm. People loved the food, the service, and the day. I'd recommend Melissa and team 100%. More...

To be honest I never read a single review on Vamos when I was looking for this service 4 weeks ago so I was taking a bit of chance. Firstly we actually booked this rather late but Melissa did not miss a beat and never made me feel it was an imposition. I was so impressed and pleasantly surprised at the fantastic level of service and quality of food we got on the day. From booking this service to delivery I could not have asked for a better experience. I was kept informed to let me know when they would arrive. The staff were all neat and well turned out and very very experienced at what they do. They all arrived early to prep the food with minimal impact. They helped whenever they could. The food was delicious and fresh and the staff were always pleasant. Thank you so much for helping to make our daughter’s and future son in law’s engagement and combined baby shower so memorable. I would hightly recommmend Vamos. More...

We used Vamos Paella for our wedding in June and from the moment of our first enquiry through to the day itself, Melissa and her team were nothing short of amazing. Organising a wedding for so many people was a daunting prospect and getting the food just right was one of our top priorities but Melissa completely took away any stresses or anxiety we had. She always made herself available to answer questions we had and offered up so much additional help and advice along the way, from looking over our list of catering hires to recommending how much ice to buy in for the bar! Melissa also organised the waiting staff for us and they deserve a special mention too. Nothing was too big an ask for the team. Like Melissa, they all went above and beyond to ensure not only that everything ran smoothly but also that my husband and I had the best day possible.The menu Melissa designed was absolutely delicious. All the guests commented on how good the food was and my only regret is that I didn’t eat more! I would not hesitate to recommend Vamos Paella and we can’t thank Melissa and her team enough for helping make our wedding so so special. More...

I couldn't recommend Vamos Paella more highly. We were let down at the last minute by a caterer for our wedding but the moment I phoned Vamos Paella I knew that everything would be OK! Melissa was completely calm despite my panic and they were able to organise attending at 3 days notice. The food was excellent and our guests really enjoyed it.

Thank you Melissa for catering at mine and Liam's wedding (105 adults and 44 kids)! You were amazing. The food was incredible - our favourites were the mini chorizos and the paellas (Liam loved the veggie one and he is a staunch meat eater! whereas I liked the classic mixed one) - and everyone, Spanish, Portuguese and British agreed it was delicious. The waiters and Bea, the maitre d', were impeccable, pleasant and incredibly professional - it all went so incredibly smoothly, I was so glad to not to have to worry about a single thing. The lunch was beautifully served (I heard rave reviews of the roast beef sandwiches and the tartlets) and the dinner was such a huge success.

The service provided by Vamos Paella was excellent. They catered for our wedding party and were extremely professional throughout. We asked them to cater for 50 but in fact about 60 people turned up. Nevertheless the paella dishes managed to feed everyone and all comments from guests were positive. The cheese tower was our centerpiece and was beautifully decorated with flowers and fruit.
I would highly recommend this company for any event. Communication with Melissa was straightforward and advice was clear. We had a great party and the paella team really contributed to the day.

Vamos Paella provided the most delicious food and brilliant service at our wedding in Hampshire. Melissa couldn't have been better, from the moment we met her during the tasting we knew she'd be completely organised and responsive. As the wedding was fairly DIY (in a garden!) she totally understood we needed help ensuring we had all the necessary equipment, cutlery and crockery and was great giving pointers and remembering things we would have forgotten! The food itself was absolutely amazing with lots of guests saying it was the best wedding food they'd ever had!! There was great choice and the fact that guests could have seconds went down very well.
