Testa Catering started in 1983, specializing in the World Famous Santa Maria Style BBQ.

Our approach begins with your vision. 
Our attention to every detail will leave you assured that your event 
will be a success.

From small, intimate, five-star dining to large parties of 2000 or more, we would love to cater for you. From your home or venue to the beautiful ranches and wineries of the Central Coast, the Testa Team is ready to make your event a memorable one.

Testa's provide state-of-the-art equipment and mobile kitchens.
