Incredible!

Absolutely GREAT food! The service before and during my event was exemplary as well. Sammy was great to work with setting everything up and Archie and Kylie were wonderful servers for the day. The prep area they used in my home was spotless when they left. I could not be happier. Just a fantastic experience!!! 5+ STARS

Wonderful Experience!

Above and Beyond catered our wedding in September of 2023! Sammy was an absolute pleasure to work with from beginning to end. She was very communicative and made the whole process very easy and answered any questions that we had. The day of the wedding went very smoothly and the food was wonderful. I as the bride only heard good things from our guests, and did not hear about any issues later on. We definitely recommend their services for any occasion!!

Excellent in every way!

We got married in August 2023 and used Above and Beyond for our caterer. We both agree that they did go above and beyond our expectations! We worked with Sammy from start to finish, she guided us through the menu options, prices, timeline and addressed every detail. In addition, she was quick to respond to any questions we had along the way, and she really made the process very easy. The staff members at our reception were friendly and professional and did an amazing job as well! In addition to all that, we are still hearing from our guests how delicious the food was! We would not hesitate to use Above and Beyond catering again and highly recommend them to anyone who has an upcoming event. Above and Beyond Catering is simply excellent in every way!
