Great Food!

Pasta Chef Catering was wonderful! The food is excellent and their staff is friendly and helpful. We had a day time wedding and we had the pasta and omelet stations. They were both a hit, especially the omelet station for brunch. Mishele was great, she was so helpful in guiding me to make my big day special. I would highly recommend.

Food for Everyone!

My wedding venue had recommended Pasta Chef Catering and I can absolutely see why! I couldn't have asked for a better caterer for my wedding. They were professional, extremely easy to work with, the food was amazing, and the pasta station was able to cater to every guest. The price was very reasonable for such great quality food and outstanding service!

Great food and service!

We stumbled upon Pasta Chef at a local bridal pop up and I'm so glad we did! The entire process with them was so smooth. From booking to everything the day of! The food was a hit, everyone was raving about the pasta and garlic bread for WEEKS! It was so nice that everyone gets to customize their own pasta so it pleased even our pickiest of eaters. They were also so kind and made sure to check on my husband and I throughout dinner to see what we needed. Would definitely recommend them!

Excellent food and customer service

We had Pasta Chef for our caterer and bartenders on 2/22/20 at the St. Pete Woman's Club. Michael and Brigitte were awesome along with all of their staff! Brigitte treated us like king and queen, making sure we had everything we needed and refilling our drinks when needed. It was amazing to not have to worry about anything and just relax. The food was excellent and everyone said they loved how unique the experience was. I highly recommend Pasta Chef!

Great fresh food

We had an appetizer hour with vegetable platters and gourmet cheese and crackers.Then We did a pasta bar with salad and fresh garlic bread. The food was fantastic and the chefs were professional and moved our guests through the line quickly. We loved the idea of having fresh food that everyone could design their own dish. They even have gluten free pasta.

Beach wedding catering

The guys at Pasta Chef are brilliant. We are from the UK and found them by chance. We got married on the beach and had about 50 guests. They came and set up at our venue and the food was fantastic. We had 2 chefs and they also provided a bar service for us. Everybody was really friendly and our guests were amazed at the quality of the food.
I would not hesitate to recommend these guys
Thank you all so much Tony and Gail (Sand Dollar)

Love how accommodating they were!

When we started looking at caterers, I didn't really consider pasta as an option because we aren't big pasta eaters. But, as we started looking at different companies with more "traditional" wedding menus (chicken with potatoes and green beans type things), the more we realized how much it was going to cost us to feed all of our vegan, vegetarian, gluten free, lactose intolerant and other guests that couldn't eat the other foods (without only serving them salad). Pasta chef catering was WONDERFUL. ALL of our guests were happy, well fed, and loved the customization of their dinner. There were multiple pasta types, sauce types, main add ins (chicken, sausage, veggies), and extras like artichoke hearts, garlic, sundried tomatoes, etc... They were nice enough to provide gluten free pasta at no extra charge and provide unbuttered bread.
They were always good about responding to my questions, showing me the cost breakdown of everything, set up and clean up, were very professional to our guests, and served us first to get the dinner rolling and keep the bride and groom fed. DEFINITELY recommend- we received so many compliments on our catering choice.

Our Wedding

I have nothing but the best of things to say from this Caterer. I feel like they went above and beyond to make things perfect for us. They were extremely affordable and payment was convenient. Any last minute changes I had were taken care with no problems. Our wedding was April 20 2019 and my guests loved the food and the caterers. I would definitely recommend to any and everyone.
