Stephanie C. Sent on 02/06/2022Delicious multicultural food + amazing customer service
Blue Plate Catering was incredibly accommodating of our multicultural, multigenerational food requests for our wedding. It was very important to my husband and I that we serve Filipino and Ecuadorian cuisine at our wedding, as an homage to our families, and as a symbol of the marrying of our two cultural identities into one - a difficult task that they smashed out of the park! They really listened to us (and to our parents, lol) and integrated all of our requests, and the food turned out delicious! Please hire them, you will not be disappointed! -

Chelsea P. Sent on 08/17/2021The best food and the best vendor!
We hired Blue Plate as they are one of the exclusive vendors for the Chicago History Museum. They were incredible throughout everything, especially as we had to plan, and replan many times due to COVID. They accommodated us in every way and Elinor was responsive, organized, and so kind! The food was incredible and all of our guests were well fed. Our wedding party admitted that they were standing by the doors where cocktail hour bites were coming out in order to get first dibs! Even beyond the food the service was fantastic, and they helped coordinate absolutely everything! Our wedding went so smoothly because of them and we cannot thank them enough! -

Jenny S. Sent on 12/20/2021Guests Still Talking About The Food
Blue Plate was our first tasting and unfortunately the tastings we went to after that paled in comparison to the quality of food and attention to detail. They were accommodating when we had to reschedule our wedding a year due to covid and very responsive along the way, especially when we were given a new event coordinator prior to our 2021 event. What I loved about them aside from the delicious food was that they paid attention to what was going on at the event. We had an hour delay due to a transportation company not picking up guests as scheduled and the Blue Plate team knew how to adjust food preparation accordingly. The steak was perfectly cooked and all food warm. The servers were professional and made sure to get to all areas of the venue for passed apps and late night bites. I truly enjoyed all my interactions with their team and my guests are still talking about how it was the best wedding food they had ever had! -

Michelle Sent on 03/07/2020Would give them 10 stars if possible!
Having been introduced to Blue Plate through work functions, I knew if there was any way we could afford to use them for our wedding, that’s who I wanted to work with. And as a pleasant surprise, they weren’t even our highest quote! And I can’t even say enough how wonderful it was to work with Nicole C. at Blue Plate, from the initial phone conversation to the big day. She immediately got the vision we had. It was so wonderful being able to have the flexibility to create a menu from the ground up to fulfill our vision of a French themed evening. From having them specifically source breakfast radishes for crudite, to recreating a salad I was set on having, and fulfilling our vision for centerpieces lush with demi baguettes and croissants, no other caterer could have done it better. And the food, as expected, was delicious and beautiful! Our venue told us that no one else is better than Blue Plate when it comes to service. I had so many guests tell me they were SO impressed with the staff’s attention to detail and efficiency of service. And I find it so endearing that every staff member I came into contact with that evening congratulated me on my marriage. They are simply the BEST! -

From day one our experience with Blue Plate was just absolutely phenomenal! Rachel and Laura went above and beyond to help us create the perfect day at A New Leaf. Between helping us find the perfect food items (which our guests still rave about) to just helping out with the little things. Your team helped make our weekend unforgettable.
An additional shout out to the service, kitchen, and our personal server - Abby! The entire team just made everything amazing and we can't thank you guys enough.

Heather Sent on 10/17/2018Amazing catering company!
Blue Plate's food is SO good! We got so many compliments on the food and I know they say bride and groom never eat the night of, however, my husband and I cleaned our plates! So good! We worked with Helen from Blue Plate and she was extremely professional and patient throughout the entire process and made tasting and menu creation so easy! Blue Plate also did our cake and it was so yummy! Couldn't have asked for a better experience and we highly recommend booking them! -
Susan Sent on 10/09/2017Many people at my table turned to me and said, clearly surprised, "This food is really good!" The compliments kept coming all evening. Here's a testimonial from our nephew, who brought himself and family from Amsterdam to attend:
"Just wanted to say that we had a great time and thought that it was a spectacular wedding. Thank you for having us....the food was best I’ve ever had at a wedding (and the chicken fingers for kids was very much appreciated)."
Boom! Of all the components of a wedding reception, having tasty food was the most important to me personally. Blue Plate was so fantastic in every way, top to bottom, plus the food was delicious and hot, and everyone was so nice.
Thank you! Susan, Mother of Bride -

Zach Sent on 12/20/2017Wow Wow Wow!! My wife and I (still getting used to saying that) were completely floored at not only the impeccable food you served to our guests but the amazing service we received from the entire Blue Plate staff. Our contact, Rachel went above and beyond on several different occasions leading up to and at the wedding to guarantee we had the picture-perfect day from start to finish. She took on so many tasks and responsibilities the day of our wedding that went well beyond her "contracted responsibility" and we couldn't have been happier or more thankful. Our wedding would not have been the same without her and her amazing team there! Thank you Thank You Thank You 1,000 times over!

User2816257 Sent on 10/15/2016Blue Plate was amazing. From the initial conversation to the tasting to the day of. Nikki, Kate, and Samantha provided incredible service. They were organized and detail oriented. On our wedding day, we were so comfortable and did not have to worry about anything related to catering. The food was amazing as well. -
User2461275 Sent on 12/10/2015When we had to find an alternate caterer a MONTH before our wedding I freaked. However, Ken and Andrea at Blue Plate made everything better from the moment we walked in for our consultation. The service was outstanding and communication. FOOD was amazing. The night of our wedding everything was flawless and plates cleaned of food from our guests. I highly recommend. They were very accommodating to allergies too.
