    I think he changed the name of the group, but Ricky Ocana was a huge hit at our wedding. We had numerous guests who were vegan, and Ricky was able to set up a menu of appetizers and Paella’s that accomodated everyone. His servers were super professional, and I can’t believe how many times we heard from our guests that it was the best wedding food they’ve had. Ricky comes highly recommended by us to anyone who need catering!

    Ricky and the team from OOF catering were awesome! We had a tasting in April for our wedding and Ricky was so gracious and had us try so many things. They were all delicious! We decided to move forward with them for our reception food. We switched the menu a few times to make sure we offered enough options for our diverse set of guests. Ricky was always so nice as we made adjustments and helped us mix and match. On the wedding day itself, the food was delicious and Ricky and his team had some of the best customer service I have ever had. So many people who attended the wedding remarked how personable the servers were. Just an overall great experience. I would recommend them to anyone!

    OOF! was suggested by our wedding planner because we had a specific request to incorporate Chinese and Latin foods into our dinner menu. While we had several options in mind, we ultimately made our decision to work with OOF! after we met their catering manager Ricky Ocana at our tasting.
    He was extremely friendly and, based on our requirements, had prepared choice selections from the menus of several of the OOF! restaurants.
    Throughout the planning process, Ricky was always responsive to all of our questions via phonecalls and emails. This was especially important to us as we were planning our wedding from New York!
    At the wedding, our guests raved about the food, from the Canapes during cocktail hour to the Chino-Latino Lo Mein station during dinner. Our only regret is that we (the bride and groom) did not get to eat much because we were so busy greeting and drinking with our guests!

    Thanks again Ricky!!

    I am so pleased with the exceptional service my (now) wife and I received from the lovely people at OOF! Catering. I did not have the luxury of doing the tasting with my wife and mother-in-law at the time since I started a new job, but I had only heard great things from their experience in San Juan with THE Ricky Ocana of OOF. I had the pleasure of having dinner with Ricky when we arrived in San Juan for our wedding to talk logistics and finalize things. I knew after that dinner that my wife made a good decision. When my wife and I were going over the beverage menu, we needed to scale it a bit to make it more suitable for our guests. When we discussed our concerns with Ricky, he did not flinch at all. To top it off, he even offered to pick me up so that we can get everything off of the beverage menu together. It says a lot about someone who has worked with big time celebrities on their events to take time out of their schedule to go with me to stores just so that we get things right for our big day. I cannot thank him enough for easing my troubles. When it comes to the food, man was it good. Steak is one of the most overcooked meats, and mine was a perfect medium!

    If you want exemplary service, a personal touch and great food....Please consider Ricky Ocana and the lovely folks at OOF!

    We met Ricky from OOF! on our one and only visit to Puerto Rico before our wedding. Being from Los Angeles, it was a bit audacious but we found the entire experience pretty easy. OOF! owns the best restaurants in San Juan, Aquaviva, Toro and Parrot Club to name a few. We used OOF for our catering at our wedding at Hacienda Siesta Alegre which is 45 minutes from San Juan. We also had our rehearsal dinner at the Parrot Club for almost 50 people. Finally we hosted welcome drinks at Toro Salao in their outdoor space.

    Over 100 people at the wedding, could tell you how many people told us that the food at both events was amazing. "Best ___ I've ever had" was the most common comment!!!! To serve that many people at a remote setting was amazing. Ricky was easy to deal with and worked to make us happy. We got to hand pick the best food from his restaurants, how cool and amazing is that?

    Ditch the hotel food and bring in OOF!

    We had Ricky and OOF! Catering help us with our rehearsal dinner the night before our wedding. Overall, it was a great success. The food was great and the setting was perfect. We had the dinner outside on the cobblestone streets of Old San Juan. It was in front of their restaurant Toro Salao and it turned out pretty great. There was a little issue of where our DJ would set up but it turned out fine. As a couple getting married you get a little nervous about execution of things, but once the party started everything was great and they did a really good job. You should definitely get these guys to handle your catering. We had steak strips which were cooked perfectly and presented nicely. They have an awesome red snapper ceviche which really blew people's minds, and their servers were really professional and friendly. I highly recommend OOF! Catering .

    My daughter's wedding in Puerto Rico was above our expectations thanks to OOF! Catering manager Ricky Ocana and Maria Lugo,wedding coordinator. I met with Ricky at Toro Salao an immediately he elaborated a menu for our 125 guests were we had the tasting and we were highly impressed with Ricky's flexibility to accommodate our requests, (He even arranged the location in beautiful Hacienda Siesta Alegre in Rio Grande,PR 35 mts from Isla Verde,P.R., where the wedding took place). He catered the wedding and we were so happy with the variety of tasty delicious Canapés which many were traditional Puertorican cuisine which for me was a treat since I am originally from PR living in Fl for the past 35 yrs and I wanted both my daughter and my future son in law to have the opportunity to savor them.

    The wedding rehearsal was at Koco one of OOF! six restaurants located at the majestic Hotel San Juan and it was exceptional as well, were we celebrated with tropical drinks and 3 types of Ceviches and amazing service thanks again to the creativity of Ricky and OOF!.

    We had a horrible experience with OOF! Catering to the point we pulled our business. When we originally decided to have our rehearsal cocktail hour, they told us we could pick any menu items from any of their restaurants, as long as we gave it to them 2-3 weeks ahead of time. We sent our menu 4 weeks ahead of time, given the fact that it was post Hurricane Maria. We tried to get in touch with them in several ways, and it wasn’t until 2 days before the event when they told our wedding coordinator everything was a go.
    Then, 24 hours before the event, they said they couldn't provide any of our menu choices. The new menu choices were limited to fried bar food. We weren’t fans of the new menu, but due to the time constraint we tried to make it work. We selected a few items from the menu and asked how many pieces were in each order. The woman we were working with had no idea what she was doing and continued to give us a run-around. She even tried to add a room fee, even though there wasn’t one when we originally booked. We were so frustrated with the lack of customer service, as well as the late notice, that we pulled the business and went to another restaurant.
