Incredible food, above and beyond service

We loved working with Justin and the Irazu team to cater our wedding, from our first tasting through our last bite. We heard from multiple guests that they "didn't know wedding food could actually be good" -- THAT'S how good they were. My partner was sad that he couldn't eat more because we got too busy! Irazu was flexible about adapting a standard package to our tastes and were very easy to work with. You NEED them.

Fantastic Food and Service

Justin and his team at Irazu have been fantastic to work with since the start of our wedding planning. His communication has been phenomenal and has been super flexible with any questions or requests we have had along the way. He and his team did a great job working with our venue for the day of as well and our guests couldn't stop raving about how delicious the food was at our reception. We were thrilled with the Irazu team and would recommend them to everyone for their wedding catering!

I will be honest, I did not picture a buffet on our wedding day; I had already made plans for a family style affair. However, the Irazu tasting was everything that other tastings had lacked. The Catering Manager (Justin) was super friendly as well as prepared, the food was full of flavor, and the presentation was great. Irazu was even more delicious on our wedding day and they helped me surprise my groom with his favorite off menu dish. The biggest compliment was something I had never seen at a wedding before, our guests asking to go up to visit the buffet once more and for the caterer’s contact info. If you are looking for a delicious and unique alternative to standard wedding food, you have found it. You will not find a more affordable or professional restaurant to cater your event!

Irazu was such a great choice for catering for our wedding. They keep it simple and the food is amazing. They do buffet only for weddings and provide servers. They also have great suggestions of other vendors to use if they don't provide everything you need

Irazu is a fantastic restaurant and has recently broken into the catering market. The food is extremely high quality and ridiculously affordable. Their staff while making arrangements and doing a tasting was incredibly responsive and helpful with all of our needs-Justin is the best! The night of servers were incredibly professional and courteous even helping out the bartenders. They provided all of the linens, utensils, and buffet set up. Our guests were all very impressed with the food and immediately wanted to know where it came from.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
