BEST caterer in RVA

EAT catering catered our wedding last month, January 2022, and Sheila and her team were perfect.

The servers and bartenders were impeccable, and the food was delicious. From the beginning, Sheila made everything so easy for us.

I love that EAT has SO MANY food options and serving styles, and that you can handle all of your linen and serve ware needs right in one place. We got everything food and drink related from EAT, and it was worth every penny because they made it such a breeze. They provided appetizers for cocktail hour, allowed us to serve dinner at the tables family style (which I have never seen before at a wedding), did a hot chocolate bar since it was a winter wedding, and provided the non-alcoholic beverages since we opted to supply the alcohol ourselves. The bartenders even did our custom cocktails! They also set up a delicious assorted deserts station since we opted not to do a big wedding cake. It was a complete hit.

My husband and I did our tasting day and selected our linens and plates at the same meeting, and then on our wedding day, exactly what we asked for arrived exactly where and how we wanted it. Plus, it was really affordable!

And Sheila was so flexible with our changing guest count, and with dietary accomodations!

Everyone loved the food, and I loved that it was easy and all encompassing so I only had to communicate with one person to handle everything food and drink related. And Sheila is so reliable and prompt in communication that I never once stressed.

I will recommend EAT catering to anyone getting married, or literally any situation where you'd need a caterer.

Great Food Great Service

We hired EAT Catering based off of recommendations from the venue where my daughter was having her wedding. They did not disappoint! We had about 200 guests with passed appetizers, a plated salad and buffet meal of salmon and petit filet with sides of mashed potatoes and mixed veggies - it was exceptional. Everyone talked about how tender and well-seasoned the food was. The mini crab cakes are definitely worth the price and were a big hit! Don't forget the dinner rolls - they were amazing! The staff was very attentive and friendly and went out of their way to make sure everything was taken care of. If your guest count is around the size of ours do the double buffet, it made the dinner run much smoother and allowed everyone to eat together rather than stretching out the mealtime. I will definitely recommend them to anyone that asks.

Plant-based options? Yes please!

With me being vegan, it was a struggle at first trying to find a company that could cater to both mine and my husbands palette (as he loves his meat) - but EAT went above and beyond any expectations we had! They made two of our sides vegan and even took it a step further and provided a fully vegan meal for a few of my guests. One of the guests was in awe as she stated to me that she’s never been to a wedding with a vegan option before! All of the food was talked about for days after the wedding - everyone thought it was incredibly delicious!
