We couldn’t be happier with our experience working with Tammy and the Mintahoe team! Tammy was incredibly kind, responsive, and organized—she made the planning process smooth and stress-free. On our wedding day, she went above and beyond to ensure that both we and our guests felt comfortable and well taken care of. The venue was beautiful, the food was delicious, and the staff was professional and attentive. We are so grateful for everything they did to help make our day truly special and would absolutely recommend Tammy and Mintahoe Catering & Events to any couple planning their wedding!

Tammy at Mintahoe is truly exceptional. Her professionalism, attention to detail, and genuine care for customers set a very high standard. She goes above and beyond to ensure everything is handled smoothly, and it shows in every interaction. Mintahoe is fortunate to have someone of her caliber on their team.

We used Mintahoe Catering for our wedding, and they were absolutely incredible from start to finish. The food was unbelievable, we’re still getting compliments from our guests months later! Everything was beautifully presented, perfectly timed, and so delicious.

Beyond that, the team was a dream to work with. Tammy and everyone at Mintahoe were so kind, organized, and attentive to every detail. Planning a wedding can be stressful, but they made the process feel so easy and enjoyable.

We had the pleasure of working with Mintahoe Catering & Events for our recent event at Nicollet Island Pavilion, and it was an incredible experience from start to finish! Gabriella, our sales rep, was an absolute gem to work with. She was responsive, accommodating, and really took the time to understand our vision. Her expertise and attention to detail made the entire planning process stress-free and enjoyable.

On the day of the event, everything was executed flawlessly. The food was absolutely delicious and beautifully presented—our guests couldn’t stop talking about it! The staff was attentive, professional, and made sure everything ran smoothly. Nicollet Island Pavilion was the perfect setting, and Mintahoe's team ensured that the venue looked stunning, enhancing the overall ambiance.

A huge thanks to Gabriella and the entire Mintahoe team for making our event so memorable. We highly recommend Mintahoe Catering & Events for anyone looking for exceptional service, delicious food, and a fantastic team to work with!

We had a great experience working with Mintahoe Catering & Events for our wedding! One of their venues we initially wanted to look at was going to be way out of our budget, Mintahoe offered other options within our budget and we ended up going with and loving the Solar Arts building in NE Minneapolis. It was such a great space! Mintahoe was helpful, responsive, professional, and fun to work with throughout the entire process. I loved having a venue/catering company that included everything (food, bar service, tableware etc). It made the planning process so much easier. We got lots of compliments on the food and everyone loved our bartender and the staff!

I will start my review by saying I had to choose Mintahoe because they are contracted by the venue I chose - the Van Dusen Mansion.

Morgan was absolutely wonderful to work with, nothing but great things to say about her - very responsive, friendly, understanding, accommodating.

We had to have the champagne and beer ordered ahead of time for the bridal suite and club room while getting ready - you can’t bring any of your own alcohol at any time during the day (this wasn’t an issue, however it’s just more expensive to have to buy theirs).

I was happy with the food, I didn’t receive any complaints from my guests about this. The sea bass was the meal I ordered and it they cooked this perfectly (very easy to overdo this dish).
The wine during dinner could’ve been better, however I do enjoy more expensive wines so I wasn’t expecting top tier wines to be served anyway.
I can’t comment on the bartending portion of their service myself because I was too busy (I’m the bride) during the day and I barely had anything to drink and never visited the bar.
Several of guests reported a few things about the bar tenders for the evening that they thought was worth mentioning to me after the wedding, however I did not experience it myself so I can’t comment on that.
Unsure if the late night pizza was good or not - I didn’t get to try it, but we had that option for our guests.
The desert table looked great! I also was clearly too busy to try this, but the venue attendants were nice enough to pack up the extra deserts and send that home with me at the end of the night! (I had the tres leches tulip cups for breakfast the following morning and they were delightful!)

They are an expensive company, they had price changes which is understandable, but were accommodating for the extra things I wanted (signatures drinks, imported Ting, outsourced cake, champagne wall). Budget wasn’t an issue for us, but had it been, I may have had to chose another company/venue.

We had 4 entrees, 4 butler passed hors d’oeuvres, table side wine pours during dinner service, 2 signature drinks & imported NA soda, 3 desert options, late night pizza, a champagne wall, and we selected the complete premium bar package. I would say all of went smoothly from what I heard - I just wish I would’ve had time/been able to experience/try all the things we paid for! The chef/team made sure we had a plate of hors d’oeuvres at our sweetheart table for dinner so we could try them, which I was pleasantly surprised by when I sat down!
The signature drink of mine (espresso martini) apparently was a huge hit - I wish I would’ve ordered more to start (I had no idea 50 of them would be finished during the cocktail hour alone!).

Overall a great experience for a company that I didn’t have an option to choose from due to a venue I signed a contract with.

I hate to say that they were “ghosts” but they were and amazingly so. Food and drink appeared, board of regents members were delighted and everything was seamless. They are great.

The Mintahoe team was very professional, responsive, and well-organized throughout the entire process. They helped make the planning much easier because they were so well-organized and clearly communicated everything (including expectations, timelines, payments, etc.). The food was also fantastic; they offer a large variety of selections (and delicious vegan and vegetarian options, which is often hard to find), and work hard to customize to dietary preferences and restrictions. We received numerous compliments about the food on our wedding day!

Throughout the planning process of our wedding, Morgan and Carrie were incredible. They were so patient with our indecisiveness and helped inform us of all of our options. Carrie knew the ins/outs of our wedding down to decor and timing which was so helpful. We met and talked frequently going back and forth about details. I felt so great going into the wedding day knowing every detail was covered. They are very accommodating with guests dietary restrictions - way more than I guessed or expected out of them! The staff were so friendly the day of and the food was AMAZING! We had tableside service which I could not recommend more. The staff were professional and accommodating. I am so glad we had Mintahoe Catering for our wedding - I couldn't have imagined it any other way.

Mintahoe is very organized and easy to work with. They reach out to you when it's time to complete each step like tastings and setting menus and payments are very easy and on a schedule so you don't have to pay for everything up front. They have lots of options and are very thorough. One big thing we were concerned with was that we had a lot of guests with allergies and dietary restrictions and we wanted everyone to be included. Mintahoe made us feel confident that all of our guests would be taken care of and given multiple options. They also accommodated a last minute change to the table settings (like the day night before the wedding last minute) which just highlights their top tier service.
