    Luau Event

    We had a Luau event and can say how wonderful they were to work with.
    The servicing & bar staff was amazing.
    The food and Bat items we picked on their Luau menu was delicious and everything they said they would do they did.
    Plan on using them again for our event in the future

    Amazing service!

    Affordable catering catered my wedding this past Saturday. They are truly the best around, the service and food was nothing short of amazing. My guests raved about the food all night. From the start of planning to the very end they made it so easy to plan. I didn’t have to stress about anything. They are so helpful with last minute questions, changes and accommodations. The bartender was great as well as the service staff. We would 10/10 choose Affordable Catering in the future. Thank you for making my wedding perfect!

    Amazing Food

    Carlos and Doug did an amazing job at setting up and serving. They both worked so hard and were so friendly with the guests. My, person of contact, Eric was not as friendly or helpful. He made me feel that I did not spend enough money for him to even take the time to introduce himself to us. we almost went to another caterer because of him. Glad we didn't, the food was over the top. I cannot say enough about how Carlos and Robert took care of everything and everyone!!

    Anniversary party at Tampa Woman's Club

    I am the event attendee at The Tampa Woman's Club and would like to acknowledge how great Damaris is at taking care of her clients and the venue. She is very attentive to making everything look extra special and goes the extra to have an enjoyable and delicious affair. As for the venue, I am very happy with her attention to cleaning up and leaving the kitchen and serving area as clean as it was at the start of the event. Thank you

    Amazing Food!

    Our wedding food was better than we could have hoped for! We wanted a Latin inspired menu and Affordable Catering was able to accommodate our request. Our guests raved about how amazing the food tasted. And they lived up to their name by providing a super affordable meal and liquor package within our budget. The bartenders and servers were super professional and efficient. Additionally, Maria helped us customize our menu and responded to all our questions in a timely manner. I would definitely choose them again for another event.

    Delicious!!

    Affordable catering was the best, honestly the best prices in town! Food and alcohol was the best for your deal. As the bride I didn’t get a chance to eat during the wedding, but the food a day later was still so delicious.

    Shivers wedding

    Professional, all staff are friendly. Their set up was great and on time. We chose blackberry key lime chicken which was fabulous and the Mac m cheese was delicious as well. No complaints really. Choose them for your catering needs in central Florida and you can’t go wrong.

    Very professional, quick, can’t say one bad thing!

    Our service was great! Every staff member was very kind. Went for a food tasting and ended up getting the blackberry key lime chicken which was amazing! All of our guests were raving about it. I can’t say one bad thing, it was very smooth and food was wonderful.

    Affordable and Delicious!

    We used Affordable Catering for our wedding in November 2020. We chose the “Formal Inclusive Wedding Menu” package, which came with hors d’oeuvres, full meal, silverware, china, linen napkins, table linens, and a day-of coordinator (Tera Marie, we will do a separate review for her, she was great). We also used their bartending service as well. We are very happy with our decision to choose Affordable Catering and their inclusive package. Having a large portion of the reception covered by one company made the coordination very convenient. We worked with Eric from the tasting all the way to the week before the wedding. They were very accommodating with changes that we had to make due to COVID. They were always on top of communication, the food was delicious, and the service was excellent. The line for the bar did get a little long at some points, so I would recommend asking if they could do a line for cocktails and a line for beer since we had a couple specialty cocktails that took a little while to make. We cannot recommend them enough, you surely cannot beat the price and the personalized service!

    Great experience

    If you’re considering working with affordable catering - I would highly recommend them for any event. Prior to the event - they were extremely responsive and had great communication. Maria worked with me when I downsized my wedding and catering needs from 150 people to a 25 person backyard wedding. During the whole process, Maria was amazing with answering all my questions and accommodating multiple changes. The day of the wedding everything flowed smoothly with affordable catering - they arrived on time, were professional, and did an excellent job. The food was delicious - try the stuffed chicken Marsala and the au gratin potatoes. We got multiple compliments from our guests that the food was very tasty. The price was very reasonable as well as we made multiple changes to normal packages to provide a safe environment for our guests due to covid. The bartender also did a great job! I would highly recommend using affordable catering to anyone who asks!

    Great Food, Great Presentation

    The food was great, and the service was phenomenal. Everything was presented beautifully and everyone was very happy with their meals. Our wedding had to be rescheduled due to Covid, and they were so accommodating and kind through everything. Their prices are just as advertised – affordable. I highly recommend this caterer for any event.

    Phenomenal Wedding Reception Service

    This comment is late and I apologize. Affordable Catering was a phenomenal choice for the Carter Family Wedding Reception! The process was easy and definitely affordable. The three employees that were provided for the reception, on 20 Feb 20, had the up most professional customer service. They were friendly, patient, flexible, cleanliness, and professional attire. The food menu served was delicious and no complaints for the Carter Family and guests. I would definitely recommend Affordable Catering for any type of wedding reception or event.
