Amazing caterer!

Lora's Le Garmache was the BEST! We went to sample at their kitchen and it was so good - they made us a beef and salmon that was our preference. We got so many compliments on everything at our waterfront venue - from the charcuterie board to the main dish of beef medallions and salmon, just perfectly cooked and seasoned for our group of 50. Todd was easy to work with and prices reasonable. Great servers that day too and they packed up leftovers for us nicely. We give them a 10! Give them a call, they make life easy - they've done this for decades.

Amazing food, exceptional service

I have used Lora's Le Garmache on several occasions for my business events that varied in attendance size and have never had a single complaint. When it came time for my wedding of course I called them! They provide prompt, professional service and the food is always amazing. If you want to have a stress free catering experience then I highly recommend that you give them a call.

Engagement Party Sumptuousness

We hired Lora's LeGarmache Catering to cater our engagement party. My fiancé and I decided to have charcuterie boards since our party was drop-in style over the course of five hours. We expected to have 50-60 people come by throughout the day. We met with Lora's team to discuss the details and they went away with a plan and menu ideas. We knew the food would be wonderful as we have had their food before at other events. What really made it special was the attention to detail that reflected who we are. We own a small farm and value farm-to-table food. Lora knew this and used fresh garlic and pumpkin from our farm. She made a delectable garlic pate and pumpkin hummus. There were so many personal and thoughtful choices-strawberry balsamic jam, cauliflower dip with naan (gluten free), smoked salmon, poached apples with goat cheese, and candied bacon to name a few. Lots of fresh and dried seasonal fruit and meats and cheeses to choose from. Guest after guest praised the food and also the layout and presentation. It was art. From beginning to end, working with Lora's LeGarmache Catering was enjoyable and easy.

Lora's Le Garmache - Just Say Yes

I just want to start out saying that Todd and Lora did an absolutely incredible Job. I will highlight some things that really stood out. First, their communication was excellent. Coming from working the world of weddings, communication between vendors is always difficult and truly causes a lot of stress. There was never a moment or more than a day of our questions not being answered.

Second, their promptness of arriving at the wedding venue. They arrived with plenty of time to familiarize themselves with the layout.

Third, the price point was better than I could have imagined. I shopped around with 4 different caterers, and the food at other places had substantially less food, less quality of food as well for no joke nearly double the price. We went all out with Lora's as well with 7 Apps for cocktail hour and Salmon and Steak with main course, and I couldn't believe the price point.

Fourth, the quality of food was excellent. We have friends still a month after talking about their food. My wife is very sensitive to fish, but the salmon she actually got two servings of, and the steak was cooked perfectly. But those mashed potatoes I still have dreams about them. Again working in the wedding world myself for 10 years, I have had a lot catering and I swear I am not being biased , Lora's takes first place.

They were even put in place with our wedding Venue on their preferred vendor list. If anyone is wondering who and why they should hire for their wedding I would say do not hesitate, Lora's Le Garmache will exceed your expectations.

My Wife and I Thank you for being a huge part of our wedding and making it better than we could have expected.

Food & Service A+

We choose Todd and his team for our small wedding and everyone agreed that the food was outstanding! We ordered the beef medallions and salmon with seasonal veggies and rice. Everything was delicious and Todd was very accommodating to vegetarian and GF options for the meal. They made this experience so easy from start to finish!

Our 50th Anniversary was Amazing. Thank you Lora's Le Garmache

Lora’s LeGarmache in Port Orchard catered our 50th anniversary celebration on 8/12/23. We don’t think we could have made a better choice! We worked with Lora’s husband, Todd, to decide on the menu and details and LeGarmache went to work. We chose a buffet dinner for our 80 guests and served fish, beef medallions, rice pilaf, sautéed green beans, Caesar salad and rolls. The fish was baked to perfection; moist and flavorful. The beef was wonderful and the rice pilaf was as beautiful as it was delicious. The entire meal was phenomenal! Lora’s staff (Julia, Ayana and Josiah) were efficient and unobtrusive, and everything was executed flawlessly. Afterwards, LeGarmache staff efficiently collected all their plates, flatware, water goblets and napkins and took them away for washing. We are still receiving compliments from our guests on the wonderful food and a great party.



We can enthusiastically recommend Lora’s LeGarmache for a wedding or banquet or whatever size party you are serving. - L. Hoffman

Mmm-mmm! So good! I love, love, love to work with Betsy and her amazing team at Le Garmache Catering. In a heartbeat, I'll rave about their customer service, attention to detail, flexiblility, awesome personalities and exceptional food. When it comes to adding professionalism together with graciousness, Le Garmache has the perfect mix. It is so terrific to find a caterer that can be worked with, without a worry in the world. I adore these ladies and their crew. Also, as a Planner, I'd love to address the few timing concerns that have been mentioned in Le Garmache's client reviews. These are the sorts of things that happen when a bride doesn't hire a professional planner, for the day of her wedding, as is recommended by most every caterer. The lack of a planner, as the constant, reliable contact on site, often leads to family and friends miscommunicating needs for services, on the day of the wedding, in an attempt to let the bride and groom "just relax". Vendors end up getting mixed messages, from mulitiple people, so that timelines go amok.
