Best team ever

We couldn’t be more thrilled with Hendri’s Food Caterer for our wedding! They went above and beyond from the very first consultation to the last bite of our wedding reception! The food was absolutely delicious - our guests couldn’t stop talking about how amazing the food was.
Dan’s attention to detail was impressive. He listened carefully to our preferences and dietary requirements, offering helpful suggestions while still staying true to our vision. The staff was incredibly professional and friendly, ensuring everything ran smoothly throughout the evening.
The highlight for many was the variety and quality of the menu. The appetizers, main courses, and desserts were all spectacular and catered to every taste. It was clear that the team puts a lot of care and passion into their work.
We are so grateful to have chosen Hendri’s Food Caterer for our wedding, and we highly recommend them to anyone looking for top-notch catering for their special event. Thank you, Hendri’s, for making our day unforgettable!

Our guests RAVED about the food!

Hendri's name came up repeatedly as we toured a number of venues for our wedding. With all of their menu suggestions and event experience, it felt like they knew the Sheldon better than anyone else which made our lives so much easier. I have just looking for reputable event, the food didn't have to be the star of the evening, but our guests raved about the food! We had the caraway pork tenderloin, the stuffed chicken, mashed potatoes and gazed carrots and broccoli. Their staff was super nice and even offered to individually bag our wedding cookies for our guests the day of. The only note on the whole experience was that their staff was a little pushy throughout the night to clear the tables. They kept taking drinks off the tables as people were on the dance floor, and a large number of our take home cookie baggies got thrown away off the tables during dancing/clean up. As the bride, a never got a cookie from my wedding day because I left it on the table so I would have one to take home, but at the end of the night, it was gone. Not the end of the world, but they were in to go bags for a reason. Overall I still give them a 99.9% because they did was exceptional.

Our wedding reception at Hendri's was outstanding. Dan & Mara—the owners and operators—provided exceptional service and valuable advice at every stage of our planning. They were so friendly and accommodating, as well as very prompt in answering questions for us. The food was excellent; our guests were still bringing it up to us for days after the event. The bar had great beers in stock and Urban Chestnut Zwickel on tap, in addition to good house selections of wine and the standard liquors. We couldn't believe how reasonably priced everything was compared to the many other venues we toured. Hendri's is really a hidden gem in South Saint Louis City. It's such a cool space—very charming and elegant.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.

I've known and worked with Steve and Dan, the owners of Hendri's, for over 30 years now. They have fantastic food and are super friendly guys who will take great care of you. They, like us, are very experienced pros and know exactly what they are doing, and I highly recommend them, always have. They are great with organization, set up and timing but are not overbearing or pushy. Their venue, Hendri's, is warm and comfortable for a midsize reception or party and there is plenty of room for dancing. Also, the high ceilings help make for a really neat ambiance! I know that they cater all over St. Louis, but if you're thinking of a reception site in South St. Louis, then you really should check out Hendri's. John Richard Owner/Elite Pro DJ

Hendri's Banquet Center is a warm and inviting venue. The room can be easily used for both a ceremony and reception for weddings. The checkered parquet floor and fireplace is perfect and can accommodate 200 for the combo or 300 for just the reception. Luxury at an affordable price. They also are preferred catering for a variety of locations for any budget. Carolyn Burke - Wedding Liaison
