Amazing catering experience

10/10 experience for catering our wedding! From day 1, Rachel was AMAZING at helping us plan the catering for our wedding. the food tasting was amazing and Rachel had answers to every single one of our questions. She was so patient working with us and figuring out the dynamics of a larger backyard wedding. Rachel thought of EVERYTHING and I kept telling her she could truly be a wedding planner! Rachel made the planning seamless and the food at our wedding was a big hit. Everyone LOVED Garfrericks! We are so happy with the way everything worked out. We have absolutely zero complaints with Garfrericks and Rachel. AMAZING EXPERIENCE!

They were the absolute best caterers to work with. Not only was the food to die for, I mean delicious, they were so caring and accommodating. Chef Garfrerick is so talented and his love for cooking showed from the rehearsal dinner. that bread pudding was outstanding, to our cocktail hour appetizers, to the big event, we still have people talking about out food!!! Rachel makes everything perfect and makes you feel so special, she truly loves what she does!!! Please hire them!!!!

Absolute perfection

I wish I had a dollar for how many compliments we got on how delicious the food at our wedding was! I requested something a little different than what garfrericks is known for and requested a Mexican feast. Let me tell you, they delivered! It was so much more than I could have ever imagined. Authentic, delicious, Mexican cuisine made more acceptable for a wedding. They even made my dream of a queso fountain come true and I will be talking about it all until the day that I die!

I contacted Suzen at Garfrericks about wedding catering on a busy Friday afternoon. I was pleasantly surprised that she took the time to answer all of my questions then and there, which took about an hour! She even stated that she had a meeting to attend shortly, but made sure she had my tasting scheduled before ending our call.

I was in contact with her in the months between this call and my tasting regarding my desired menu. When we got there, we were thrilled to be served by Chef Dave himself. Furthermore, he had gone to the trouble of creating and preparing specially requested dishes not on the menu for us to taste on a Saturday night! Everything that we tried was absolutely divine. The chicken and beef were both tender, and both the mashed potatoes and diced potatoes were out of this world. The asparagus was delicious as well! It was clear Garfrericks would be catering our wedding - the only question was how to narrow it down to only a couple of the delicious options available!

Overall, I was so pleased with the service both during our dining experience and during our wedding. Everyone raved about the food at our wedding. My husband and I both agreed our only regret was not getting a doggy bag to take after the wedding because the food was so amazing! I will also add that Chef Dave was fantastic at accommodating food allergies and special diets at our wedding, making special plates for those individuals at no extra charge. I would HIGHLY recommend to anyone considering Garfrericks for dinner or for catering!

My husband, myself, and both of our families would give Garfrerick's a complete 10/10! They were absolutely wonderful from start to finish, and provided us with a super unique, very fresh selection of appetizers, entrees, desserts, and drinks! (Did I mention FRESH? And DEFINITELY the best value we found, by far). We had several key guests who were Gluten Free, and each of our meals were made GF so that our guests could enjoy their first choice! Additionally, our cake was DELICIOUS! They made us one naked cake (with gluten) and a special gluten-free naked cake as well. Our signature drink - blackberry mint julep - was a HUGE hit, and our guests complimented how delicious the food was the whole night! Many even said it was the best food at a wedding they had ever had! :) In addition to the delicious, fresh, healthful, and yummy food and drink options, Dave is awesome! He's extremely thoughtful, and someone we will recommend to all of our friends and family! Likewise, the servers were AWESOME! They were positive, fun to be around, fast and responsive, and even joined us on the dance floor after dinner for a little while when we invited them to!

If you're looking for a sign to book Garfrerick's, THIS IS IT! You will not be disappointed!!

Garfrerick's catered the reception for my daughter's wedding. From the initial tasting to the actual event, Chef Dave and his staff were excellent. They worked with us to ensure every aspect of the reception was tailored to our needs. The food and the service from the staff were outstanding. I can not think of one thing I would change. I've had friends that attended the reception ask for directions to the restaurant. If you are considering having an event, you and your guests will be missing out if you don't take advantage of this jewel of a place.

The food for our daughter's wedding was absolutely delicious! Their concept is farm to table and that is what they delivered. Chef Dave was very accommodating and was more than willing to do extra special things to enhance our dining experience. We would highly recommend Garfrerick's Cafe and Catering to anyone for their catering needs.

Garfrericks Café provided a fantastic meal for my wedding. They were easy to work with in creating my unique menu for my special day. We eat at their restaurant frequently and having our wedding reception dinner there was an easy decision.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
