Who We Are

Sai Manikanta Caterers is an acknowledged catering establishment based at Vijayawada, Andhra Pradesh — [PLEASE UPDATE: enter your current permanent address here]. We have impressed countless clients with our outdoor catering services across weddings, corporate events, birthdays, private parties and religious functions since 1994.

Authentic Andhra, Telugu and South Indian cooking is where every menu starts — the food our reputation was built on. We bring together the best locally sourced ingredients and spices to create wholesome, pure-vegetarian fare, and on request we also prepare Tamil Nadu-style, Jain, Gujarati, Bengali, Continental, Hyderabadi, Punjabi, Maharashtrian, Rajasthani and Sindhi dishes — all fully vegetarian. We are an FSSAI-registered organisation, and every menu starts from the same place: sourced ingredients and a kitchen that never compromises on quality or hygiene.

Our Founder

The Man Behind the Kitchen

In 1994, Ramesh Jonnalagadda Garu started Sai Manikanta Caterers in Vijayawada with a simple standard: food made the way it's made at home, served with the same care whether the gathering was for fifty guests or fifteen thousand.

That standard is what carried the business from small family functions to some of the region's largest weddings and temple festivals — including relationships with client families that go back twenty years and counting, through weddings, private functions, and annual temple celebrations at the Sri Venkateswara Swamy Temple in Joopudi Village.

Today, Ramesh Garu still leads operations and event coordination personally — the kind of hands-on involvement that's kept many clients coming back for their second, third, and fourth events with the same caterer.

The Next Generation

Sai Manikanta Jonnalagadda

Sai Manikanta Jonnalagadda leads kitchen operations and menu planning today, working alongside his father to carry the business forward. Under his involvement, Sai Manikanta Caterers has broadened its menu — from the authentic Andhra and South Indian dishes that built the brand's reputation, to a wider vegetarian, multi-cuisine spread — while holding to the same standards Ramesh Garu set in 1994.

It's a working partnership between two generations: one that built the trust, and one that's growing it — together still serving families across Andhra Pradesh and Telangana.
