Absolutely perfect!!
Everything was perfect! From the initial phone call to request menu and pricing for my wedding rehearsal dinner to the final goodbye, the service and professionalism was extraordinary. Cierra was my initial contact person, and she helped to guide me through menu selections and additional services Amici’s provides. Kiki was the captain in charge of my dinner. He is so experienced, calm, and confident in Amici’s catering, At the visit to my home a week prior to discuss where we would place tables and chairs, appetizers, pasta station, carving station, coffee station, and desserts he knew from experience where everything should be placed to make things flow smoothly. John, Carol, Juri, and Chad were Kiki’s team. The five of them worked so harmoniously, it was so reassuring that I only had to be the hostess and not worry about any little detail.
I am so happy that I had Amici’s cater this very important event for me.

Amici's Is Amazing!
Amici's was one of our best wedding decisions! They were so responsive and helpful every step of the process. Figuring out catering felt very daunting at first, but their team made everything fun and straightforward. They worked closely with our wedding coordinator to nail the logistics of our in home wedding, and elevated their setup and presentation with decor pieces that accented our colors/theme. We had a small 30 guest wedding at my husband's parent's home. THE FOOD IS AMAZING! Our guests gave so many compliments on the food taste/quality, flow of service (cocktail hour, buffet dinner, cake cutting), and the staff's kindness and attentiveness. We couldn't be happier with our experience and highly recommend Amici's for all your event catering needs!!

Amazing wedding catering!
My husband and I were so impressed with the service and quality of food we received leading up to and at our wedding! Amici’s worked with us and our wedding planner to create a fantastic menu for our wedding. They even let us come back for a second tasting because we were deciding between 2 appetizers. All of our guests loved our wedding food. Amici’s also create a large charcuterie table for us during cocktail hour and it was a hit with our guests. I highly recommend amici’s for the price point and amazing quality of food!

Amazing food
Choosing Amici's for our wedding was an absolute delight! The food exceeded our expectations, and there was an abundance of it. From the initial food-tasting, we knew we were in for a treat. Our guests couldn't stop raving about how delicious everything was. The staff was outstanding—professional and attentive. They went above and beyond, even saving my day before I walked down the aisle by providing lip gloss from their personal items. I highly recommend them and would absolutely choose them again without hesitation.
