Amazing Caterer!

Cynthia and everyone on the Metro Cuisine team helped make our wedding day extraordinary! First off, the food that Metro provided was beyond excellent: we received multiple compliments on how fresh and tasty everything was. In addition, we had a blended Indian/Western wedding and Metro did a fantastic job of coordinating pass-through catering for some regional Indian dishes that had to come from a local Indian restaurant. From decor to service, they made everything about the day-of catering experience so easy. We would recommend them without reservation!

Couldn't be happier!

Kelley from Metro was one of my favorite people to work with throughout the wedding planning process! I’m certain that Metro must be very proud of her and her team for pulling off such a large event and I’m so thankful for her leadership. I truly felt taken care of and was able to relax and enjoy the day because I knew this team had us covered! People raved about the food (especially the garlic mashed potatoes) and were very complementary of the staff. Thank you to Metro and to Kelley for having such a positive impact on our special day!

Best wedding food!

We are so glad we went with Metro to cater our wedding! The food was delicious, everything about the linens and setup looked great, and the service staff was impeccable- we barely even noticed them all night, but they stayed on top of everything! From the initial tasting, to meetings to discuss set up and linen choices, to the day-of, everything was a breeze and we had no complaints. We will definitely use Metro again for our catering needs.

Amazing, Beautiful Wedding!

We had such a great experience with Metro Cuisine at our wedding a few months ago. I worked with Emily as my coordinator and she was always willing to answer my questions and meet with me to go over details during the planning process, which was especially important as a Covid bride. Our Metro Cuisine package included chair rentals, linens, glassware, lights, etc, so we didn't have to worry about any of the set-up for those things. The staff did an amazing job with set-up & tear-down, ensuring that the day ran smoothly, and they were extremely kind and proactive. Our guests also LOVED the food offered by MC, saying it was the best food they had had a wedding! HIGHLY recommend hiring them for your wedding!

Delicious and flexible

Metro Cuisine is owned by the same gentleman (Tim) who owns our venue (The Beverly Mansion), so it was really a no-brainer for us to pick this company. We were extremely happy with the results, though! They provided a build-your-own pasta bar that was a hit with everyone at our wedding, and provided an easy way to ensure that our vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free friends and family had a solid meal.

Great experience

Emily was amazing to work with as we planned our wedding and rehearsal dinner. I had so many questions for Emily throughout the process and she was always quick to respond and so helpful. Most importantly, the food was great!

We loved Metro!

I am so thankful we had Andrea and the Metro team on our side for our wedding day! Andrea was so helpful in guiding us through the wedding planning process and answering all of our questions quickly. They are more than catering! The food was delicious and there are so many options to create your menu. However, I was so impressed with the staff on our wedding day. They went above and beyond to create the most beautiful wedding reception. I had extra greenery from our flowers and they used it to decorate in ways I wouldn't have even thought to use it! The service was great and they just go with the flow of your wedding. Andrea was such a calming presence which is so necessary on your wedding day and leading up to it. Cannot thank Metro enough and would recommend them to anyone!

Great food, wonderful staff!

Our experience with Metro was great! They were a pleasure to work with - especially Andrea our coordinator. We loved her communication and willingness to be flexible - this was especially true when we had to postpone our 2020 wedding until 2021. The food was great, although we did pay for an additional tasting of the exact food we would be serving which was very helpful. Metro really went above and beyond - without asking when we ran out of pre-ceremony drinks, they noticed and made sure the bridal party/ VIPs had drinks (including pitchers of water!) before the ceremony and even providing a plate of appetizers for us to eat right after the ceremony since we did not join our guests for cocktail hour. Metro's entire staff was wonderful and we had a great time!

Best food and service, by far!

I cannot thank Metro Cuisine enough for making our wedding rehearsal dinner so perfect! They were outstanding, truly, and the food was incredible! Considering that the quality and creativity of the food was 5 star restaurant worthy, the price was very reasonable. Everyone continued to rave over the food for days! We also had Metro Cuisine cater a day-after-the-wedding brunch, and they brought the same level of excellence, both in food and service.

Talk about going above and beyond! I would have totally forgotten the pre-meal toast if Metro Cuisine hadn’t reminded me! Their attention to every detail surpassed my highest expectations. Each server was polite, professional, friendly, and exceptionally helpful. Metro Cuisine is THE caterer you want for any event!

Loved working with Cynthia + The Metro Cuisine Team!

My husband and I got married earlier this month, and Metro Cuisine was our caterer. Not only was the food DELICIOUS- they were so wonderful to work with. We worked with Cynthia and she is truly the best! My husband and I are from Columbus but now live out of state- planning a wedding without being in the area has the potential to be overwhelming and confusing- but Cynthia made it a breeze! She is so communicative and responsive and she has incredible attention to detail. She recommended vendors for us (music, DJ, florist, photographer) and we were thrilled with their work as well! The catering staff was amazing! They were so attentive throughout the evening, so present and kind to our guests and saved us extra appetizers since my husband and I didn’t have a chance to try them during the cocktail hour. We had a plated dinner and I was concerned that dinner would end up taking longer than expected (I was so eager to get to the dancing!) but the Metro Cuisine staff ensured that we stayed on schedule. I can not recommend this beautiful space and the Metro Cuisine team (especially Cynthia!) enough.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.

Metro Cuisine has been THE choice of many of our rental parties at Camp Mary Orton. They are professional, personable, and can do a variety of events from small intimate weddings to large company picnics. They can do it all from catering to linen & table/chair rental, set up, tear down, event planning and more! We have received nothing but positive feedback about them from our renters. They are also Camp's choice to cater our summer day camp, Adventure Academy, and they help us feed our 300+ volunteers with food donations on Community Care Day. They are considered a "Friend of Camp Mary Orton", which means their catering % owed is less than a new caterer coming to our site.
