Best caterer in Charlottesville

I met with Vickie and Mark multiple times before our wedding day and I could really tell they cared about us. You aren’t just another wedding with L’etoile Catering, you’re part of their family. Vickie worked with me multiple times to fine tune our menu so it best reflected me and my husband and our favorite foods. Her attention to detail is very impressive! The day of the wedding we had so many of our guests tell us it was the best wedding food they’ve ever had. Everything was served hot and cooked to perfection. I can’t recommend this company enough!!!

Great food with a family feel!

Vickie and Mark are amazing!! Not only is their food delicious but they are also so accommodating. I have celiacs disease and dairy
allergy and they did not hesitate to accommodate mostly everything! I cannot express how amazing it was for me to eat anything and everything at my wedding. Not only was all the food amazing and warm, their service was of a very high standard. I could not recommend L’etoile enough!!

Perfection from Start to Finish

Vickie and Mark of L'Etoile made our wedding incredible from the moment we first started discussions with them. They were incredibly knowledgeable, knowing all of the important logistics that will matter during the day, caring, ensuring that all guests (and the married couple) were fed, and flexible, making changes with us as we moved through the planning process. The food was delicious and our tasting with Vickie and Mark was probably the highlight of our planning process. They worked with various allergies and dietary restrictions and made sure that the night flowed seamlessly. I also want to highlight that Vickie is incredibly kind and supportive of her staff, making sure that they were learning great skills in a supportive environment. As someone who has worked food service and catering before, seeing this made me feel even better about our choice to work with them.

Best wedding caterer!

L’étoile Catering was one of the best choices we made for our daughter’s wedding! They were so professional and our wedding planner found them a joy to work with. Our guests were raving about the food, which was Virginia cuisine with a French flair. The menu was well suited to the October wedding date with 3 main dishes including a vegan option. We didn’t have to worry about a thing!

L'Étoile is a true gem

L'Étoile is a true gem that made our wedding day extraordinarily special. They catered both our rehearsal dinner and our wedding reception, which was no small feat over the span of two days. Vickie and Mark crafted a draft menu for us that was so perfect we didn’t make a single change. Their flexibility and willingness to accommodate last-minute requests, especially for our rehearsal dinner entrees, were truly appreciated.

The décor and table settings were exactly as we envisioned, and Vickie’s attention to detail ensured that all our rentals were flawless and nothing was overlooked. Their dedication and meticulousness made the whole process seamless. If you're considering vendors for your event, look no further—hire L'Étoile with confidence. You won’t regret it!

Flexible, professional and talented

Vickie and Mark (L'Etoile owners/chef) are so wonderful to work with. Mark is extremely talent chef who was very open to collaboration while adding in experience of weddings and what people like. The food is incredible and thought through from start to finish. Vickie was extremely communicative and her team was absolutely wonderful at our wedding. They were extremely professional, on it in every aspect making the evening seamless from start to finish. Vickie was also very cognizant of our budget and thoughtful in areas for us to cut back when we needed to. Her and Mark were great collaborators. They are family owned and they are both there on the event night ensuring success. Highly recommend L'Etoile for your wedding/event.

Best in class catering!

We hired l'etoile for our 170 person wedding in May 2024 and, from the moment I reached out to Vickie (proprieter), it was a spectacular experience. Vickie responded within 48 hours of my original outreach with a draft menu so we could envision the flow of the evening. The tasting that Chef Mark prepared blew our minds away - they so carefully curated our selections, provided recommendations, and truly gave us a beautiful experience. And then, for the main event, they were exceptional. Professional, elegant, delicious - from cocktail hour to last call at the bar, they were on top of it every step of the way. Our guests commented many times over how excellent the food was (especially the lamb & manchego meatballs in a cinnamon sauce and the mini grilled Virginia ham and cheese sandwiches!). They're a local, family-owned business, and you can truly tell that they love what they do.

10 million out of 10, cannot recommend l'etoile enough!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
