We have known Jake for years through his team catering winery events, and knew we had to book him for our wedding. He and his team are true pros- their calm demeanor, organization and the way they were able to execute our vision to have exceptional food at our wedding was above and beyond. Still to this day, we have guests who comment about how truly delicious the food was, from the passed appetizers (which his team put aside for us in our suite to enjoy after the wedding), to the main course (and a vegetarian option which blew minds), to the star of the evening - the late night sliders! We not only recommend Jake and Valley Piggery for weddings- but also look out for when they are part of events and sign up- you won’t be sorry!!"

Jake and the Les Fêtes team are exceptional. It is rare that you walk away from a wedding talking about how fresh and incredible the food was, but I can confidently say that months later, people are continuing to talk about how we had the "best food ever at a wedding." For a 200+ person wedding, Jake and his team were able to scale with perfection, creativity, incredible freshness and top-notch customer service.  The Les Fêtes team is genuine, talented, easy to work with and delivers with sheer excellence. We cannot recommend Les Fêtes enough.

“Food being the backbone of any event, it was the most important part of the planning process for us. Jake invited us to come for a tasting in his kitchen and with each course we knew he was exactly what we had been searching for. I told him what I wanted in a menu and he brought it to life beyond what I could have ever imagined. Thus a year later whenever someone brings up our wedding the melt in your mouth short ribs are always the first thing that’s mentioned. I only wish I could eat it again and again and again. This meal will live on in my memory as truly one of the very best! Thank you Les Fêtes!”

“We are so grateful to Jake O Francis from Les Fêtes for making our wedding dreams come true! He took our vision and uniquely curated an amazing menu. The chicken and short ribs literally melted in your mouth and the pairing of farm to table side dishes were just perfect! He also sourced and created an oyster bar that the guests went crazy for! So many of our guests were ranting about the food months later and said it was the best wedding food they had ever had! We highly recommend Les Fêtes!!”

We couldn’t have been happier with the incredible food and service on our wedding day. 

From the first bite to the last, Jake’s team nailed every detail. The presentation of each dish took into account the details of the space, the service was friendly and very attentive and all food came out timely and with great execution!

Our guests still rave about the passed appetizers and dinner. Jake’s team truly added a special touch to our celebration.

Thank you for creating unforgettable food memories for us and our loved ones.

Jake is creative and flexible and can make any dining occasion perfect. He is the best in Santa Barbara County to work with! Les Fêtes has the best curated food and an unflappable chef/owner. I would describe them as calm, flexible, professional, graceful, creative, inventive grill masters who think outside of the box. They are both traditional and classic with modern relevance when appropriate.

Les Fêtes is always my first recommendation - be it for an intimate birthday dinner, a huge wine club party, or your wedding. Les Fêtes is going to be the team you want catering! Chef Jake and his team curate custom menus for each event, taking the greatest care to create fresh, beautiful and delicious meals every time. At a recent 200+ guest wedding, Jake worked with my couple to recreate their very favorite salad from a beloved restaurant, not to mention a very specialized dessert the bride's mom served at her own wedding to make sure the night was perfect. His team's service is impeccable, your guests will always have what they need. From the most casual bbq to the most formal wedding, I would trust Jake and his team any time.
