Amazing experience

From start to finish, I couldn’t recommend them enough. We scheduled a tasting and it was such good food. We upgraded to Flank Steak and added Mac and Cheese to the Couples Choice Package. They were on time and even started the dinner service early since we finished with our ceremony ahead of schedule. We opted to take home leftovers and our family had meal prep done for the week! They had great communication with me as well and checked in months and weeks leading up to the wedding.

Great communication.

Cincinnati Catering was great with everything. Anytime I had a question I just emailed them and they responded back very quickly no rather how many times or how silly my question was. They kept their professionalism everytime. Whether it be the wait staff or servers at the wedding or whoever I spoke to through phone or email. They also had dessert options too which also persuaded our decision to go with them. Loved that we had one less vendor to worry about. Thank you Cincinnati Catering for helping make our day the best day!

Outstanding Quality

Cincinnati Catering would definitely get our business again. They were very professional, easy to work with, and man was the food good! Not only the pasta bar (which they also threw in some gluten free pasta for my wife and the maid of honor), but they had a fantastic dessert spread of cake, mini cupcakes, and brownies that were a hit with our guests!
