Cafe and Commissary Kitchen From the Hall SF Founder Opens in Oakland | Eater SF

"Ted Wilson's catering company Metal & Match is the main tenant of the Alice Collective's commissary kitchen and the force behind the project; I note that Metal & Match can foot most of the bill for the commissary but doesn't require the whole space, which Wilson rents out as auxiliary service to support other food entrepreneurs. Wilson has pursued interim-use projects like the Hall and prefers staking out newer territory rather than established ground, and he frames Metal & Match's role as part of a community-minded ecosystem rather than an incubator—he's not "picking champions," but wants to make it easier for others by sharing resources." - Caleb Pershan

We used Metal & Match for a big non-profit Gala, based on a recommendation as they catered for us in the past. Chris and his team are fantastic to work with - they are communicative, responsive, and understood what our goals were for the event. They were our caterer, bar, and furniture rental, and they were very easy to work with throughout the planning process and the night of the event (including set-up and clean-up). Chris is extremely friendly and a generous partner to work with. We had one slight hiccup out of Chris's control but I would recommend him and his team to anyone as we had a fantastic experience. And everyone loved the food!!

Ted & Christine are an incredibly lovely, talented team who made our wedding & welcome dinner a success! We had a limited budget, and they worked with us to create a truly amazing menu of delicious food that impressed all of our guests. Christine helped me create a special "milk & cookies" dessert, and Ted came up with some great ideas to help personalize the wedding. The service staff was super friendly and attentive, and it was fun working with the entire team. I really hope we have a reason to use them again in the future! Thank you, Ted & Christine, for making our special day perfect!

These guys are great. Super-professional, great service and creative food. They catered multiple events for us during our wedding weekend including an outdoor BBQ and a seafood event. Highlights were some super fresh Monterrey uni and spot prawns, fantastic charcuterie platters and sliders. Really good service and Ted really came through for us with some amazing last minute requests from the families. These guys are empathetic. They really get what the families/friends are going through and try to make it easy for everyone. Whole team are just high quality professionals. Highly recommended!!!

I attended two events catered by Metal & Match, one where Ben Solee was performing and another at a Paladar, and both were phenomenal and exceeded expectations. The presentation was beautiful, the food was delicious, and the service was spot on. The Ben Sollee event had an amazing smoked trout dish and a porcini mushroom farrotto (like a play on risotto) where I wanted to lick the plate. The Paladar was "smoked" themed with the best carrot dish I've ever had. Definitely recommend this company!

Metal and Match was fantastic! They were very organized and my colleagues and I were impressed by the attention to detail in both the food and the decor setup. I would highly recommend them for any event.

I wouldn’t suggest a catering company that is prejudice and doesn’t protect their staff. I was verbally and almost physically attached by the sous chef with no remorse or care from the staff and owner. I’m sure if you read owners, you will be upset but imagine how I felt and how offended I was. DO BETTER
