Oddkast Chocolate taste good

I went to A1 catering and ordered for my wedding with Kate Stabile, and saw Nicholas John Stabile III. I watched in awe as he prepared my pop plate. It tasted really good and Nicholas thanked his African-American friend Danny for the idea. I highly recommend this. Pop Wadum. Nicholas John Stabile III, thanks for shitting on a plate. Wadum.

Rehearsal & Reception Dinner

AJ was always responsive when I had questions or needed to make changes. Even during a pandemic, they opened up for us to have a tasting. Rehearsal Dinner was dropped off right on time, and delicious. Reception Dinner was delicious as well, and staff were polite and easy to work with. Their food received lots of compliments both nights. Prices were VERY reasonable. We very much enjoyed working with them for our wedding!

Phenomenal

When I was trying to find a caterer for my November wedding, I ended up finding A1 Catering online. I read how affordable, and flexible A1 Catering was, so I contacted them via email, and Aj (Catering Director) responded back to me within 24-48 hours. He was able to let me do a food tasting on a Sunday afternoon, and I was able to invite 3 other people to join in the food tasting! The food turned out to be amazing! To this day, I would have people from my wedding tell me the food was delicious! I'm so happy I decided to use A1 catering for my wedding! They're also affordable! I would have thought I'd pay so much for catering, but since I was on a budget, their prices were reasonable. When it comes down to flexibility, Aj and his team would work with you! If you need to find someone to cater an event, A1 catering is who you would need to contact! They will not disappoint you at all!

Perfect & Priced Right

The food was amazing and the staff (I worked with Emily) was responsive and so sweet. The tasting was a wonderful experience and they were so flexible about everything. We did a buffet with servers. The food tasted wonderful and was hot. We also used them for alcohol service and they were awesome. I would go back to them in a heartbeat. I felt that they were a great service at an incredible price!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
