At Ace & Olive, we believe great gatherings deserve exceptional food. Based right here in San Jose, CA, we are a premium provider of meat and cheese boards as well as cheese board catering that turns any event into a memorable culinary experience.
Every board we make is about freshness, visual appeal, and a true focus on flavor. We source the finest cured meats, premium cheeses, and accompaniments from reliable local suppliers. We make sure that every bite offers different textures and well-balanced flavors. From prosciutto and salami to aged cheddar and honeyed brie, every element on our charcuterie board has a reason to be there.
(985) 227-5771We pick every cut of cured meat by hand (prosciutto, salami, Coppa, and more). Then, we cut it into thin slices that look good on the board and taste even better. No filler cuts, no shortcuts.
Our cheese selection covers the full spectrum: soft and creamy brie, semi-firm Gouda, and boldly aged cheddar. We build each meat and cheese board with contrast in mind. Your guests are drawn to a mix of textures and flavors, each with its own intensity, all coming together in perfect balance without overpowering one another.
Our cheese boards highlight artisan cheeses paired with seasonal fruits, olives, nuts, honey, and crackers. They are finished with delicate herbs and blooms. They're chosen specifically to bridge the flavors between the meats and cheeses on that particular board.
Cheese and charcuterie are best enjoyed at room temperature. We time our preparation and delivery, ensuring that your board hits its peak right when your guests arrive.
A well-made board catches people's attention before they even take a bite. We pay close attention to color contrast, height, and the spacing between elements. This way, the final product looks intentional rather than thrown together.
Our suppliers in San Jose and the Bay Area are reliable, so the ingredients for our boards are as fresh as possible. That consistency is something all our clients notice and count on.

Here's how the whole thing works, start to finish:
We start by discussing your event, how many guests, any special dietary requirements, and a few other details. Then, we guide you in choosing a suitable board or a custom build.
Once your order is confirmed, we source the freshest available cheeses, cured meats, and accompaniments from our trusted Bay Area suppliers. Nothing is prepped in bulk and held. We order everything fresh for your specific event.
Every board is assembled by hand. We take time to get the layout right (groupings, color placement, spacing) and ensure the finished board looks as good as it tastes.
We deliver directly to your location in San Jose and the surrounding areas. For larger events, we can stay on-site to set up the full grazing table and make sure everything is positioned correctly before guests arrive.
There are a few things that tend to come up when our clients explain why they keep coming back or why they recommended us to others.
