Catering Dream Team is Dante's!

We had an incredible wedding thanks to the team at Dante Private Events and Catering. From our very first meeting with Stephanie, we knew we were in great hands. Stephanie was an absolute gem—so friendly, fun, and just a wonderful person to know. She made the whole process easy, and treated us like a friend.

Communication throughout was top-notch. Every email we sent (and we sent a lot!) was met with a timely, thoughtful response. We had a lot of specific requests and menu ideas, and the team never blinked—they just rolled with it and helped us craft the exact fine dining experience we imagined, with Dante’s signature touch.

They even managed the dinnerware and linen subcontractor for us, which saved us a ton of time and hassle. Just one more example of how they go above and beyond.

The night of the wedding, the food was phenomenal. Truly some of the best we've ever had—and we're not just saying that because it was our wedding. The service was flawless, and every member of the waitstaff was warm, attentive, and professional. Our guests are still talking about how good everything was—and how it all felt like a high-end restaurant experience, not “wedding food.”

We honestly can’t recommend Dante Catering enough.
Worth every penny. If you're thinking about booking them, just do it. You won’t regret it.

Mr. and Mrs. Manothay

I want to start by saying thank you to Chef Dante and staff. Stephanie was a huge help coordinating the event and even fulfilled our request to have karaoke down in the Coda room. The reception was amazing — from the atmosphere to the service, everything exceeded our expectations. The food and drinks were top-notch, and so many of our guests commented on how much fun they had.

One thing that really stood out to us was the value. Weddings can get expensive quickly, but this venue was very affordable without ever feeling like we had to compromise on quality. We felt we got so much more than we paid for, which made the whole experience even better.

The team made the night feel effortless for us, which let us truly enjoy every moment. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would highly recommend this venue to anyone planning their special day.

Best Wedding Reception Ever

This was the wedding reception of our first daughter. We had a vision of the best wedding meal ever, Dante and his team delivered. We had a very specific (large) menu, including 4-5 appetizers (sushi, Dante making pasta in a big cheese wheel), a three course dinner (8 total dishes, headlined by shellfish stuffed fluke, spaghetti spaghetti, a beautiful ribeye and a king crab polenta), and made on site banana nutella crepes. Second dinner may have been the star of the night, with chef bringing out a huge wok and making pork and seven vegetable fried rice. The team of servers were exceptionally attentive. An exceptional, unique, and memorable event.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
