Banquet Packages -On & Off-Site:

For even more convenience, we've wrapped up our best-selling meal options into full-service packages, complete with delivery, set-up and tear down.

Corporate Events:

Nothing sets the mood like a generous and well thought-out buffet or passed trays of canapés, fun music, and stylish flowers!  An afternoon or evening they'll remember positively for years to come is much more than a fun time for all.  It's a powerful investment likely to bring a strong return, and an environment conducive to collecting useful customer or employee feedback.

Weddings, Receptions & Parties:

For over two decades, Francesca Gibson has been catering weddings and parties in ways that feel fresh & relevant. From the start we've been commmitted to fresh ingredients prepared in lively and delicious ways that enhance the festive nature of a wedding day. Today, we delight in ever-greater access to local & organic ingredients and sustainable practices right here in Orange County.

Monday Nite Football:

Swing by and watch the game with us!  Monday night football is a great way to start the work week! Enjoy homemade pizzas to order, $2 domestic beers, great food and good friends... It's now the Monday Night meeting place for SinglesOdyssey.org members! Nice!!
