Gourmet Wedding Delight

My husband and I recently used Duane's catering for our wedding. Our guests to this day are still talking about the cheese wheel and how great the veggies were. Our guests, as well as us, loved all of the food and I wish we had leftovers. It was delicious and the setup they did was gorgeous. We did three passed trays and three live food stations (carving station, pasta bar, and veggie/salad station).

Fantastic Catering Experience!

My wife and I have used Duane's Catering to cater two events recently, and both times we were well more than satisfied! The food tasted GREAT and was really easy to serve for large groups. Our first event was my wife's birthday, we had about 40 friends at our house. They were very helpful with delivery and set up and made some awesome specialty pizzas! My wife was so pleased with the quality and service that she reached out to them again to cater our 10-year high school reunion for about 150 people, and again they did a wonderful job. My wife raved about how helpful everyone she worked with and how affordable they were compared to other vendors she reached out to. I would highly recommend them for catering any size party. You won't be disappointed and definitely will not be hungry afterward!

Duane's Delightful Catering

We owe you the biggest thank you for catering at our wedding function! The food was incredible, our guests loved it and the portion size was excellent! It really felt like you were a part of the wedding, not only was the food amazing, but you were also so flexible on the day with timings as well and we really appreciated that. We are also so grateful for all the help you gave us in the lead-up to the wedding. You were so efficient, made everything so clear to us, and gave us many ideas as well. You really did make it all very easy and stress-free for us.
Thank you for everything you did to make the wedding a success. Definitely recommend Duane's Catering. We will send you some photos when we get them!

Impeccable services

I cannot speak highly enough of the catering team's performance at our recent corporate event. The food selection was diverse and delectable, catering to a range of preferences flawlessly. What truly set them apart was their impeccable presentation – each dish was like a work of art. Our guests were not only satisfied but truly impressed. The staff's professionalism and attentiveness made the entire event run smoothly, allowing us to focus on our clients without worrying about a thing. If you're seeking a top-tier catering experience, look no further. Five stars all the way!

A professional and courteous company.

Duane and his staff did a wonderful job! Attention to every detail really took the stress off me at my party. I was able to enjoy my guests and relax knowing event was in the best hands! I thank them for providing a great memory. The food was amazing with no disappointments, and food quality was just as good. The staff could not have been any more helpful or professional. The services they provide is outstanding. I definitely recommend!!

Very Tasty Food And Excellent Services

Not the biggest reviewer but I had to just tell how well Duane and his crew did for me. I love how he stayed in contact with me and in general was kind to me. When the food came it was everything I expected plus more!!!! Catering isn't something I am super familiar with but this company made it a breeze, everyone loved the food, my personal fave was the Italian spiced potatoes (never had executed so well) and I really liked the strawberry spinach salad.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
