Awesome Food & Drinks

Chef Karl, his wife, and team served an amazing surf and turf dinner for our wedding reception in October (2019). Chef was easy to work with and willing to accommodate our wants and needs. Everything exceeded our expectations and the price was reasonable as well.

If you are staying on Sanibel or Captiva islands, check out the Bailey's General Store – best grocery store on either island. :)

Cannot recommend enough

Chef Karl and the rest of the team at Sanibel Catering Company were absolutely fantastic. He was incredibly helpful throughout the entire process, the initial tasting we did with him was so good we immediately asked if there was availability for our rehearsal dinner which there luckily was. He additionally is familiar with a lot of the other vendors in the area and gave recommendations that we used, resulting in great cohesion on wedding day. Absolutely amazing food and will help you craft the perfect menu.

Chef Karl and the Sanibel Catering Company team out of Bailey's General Store are incredible!! You may not think to go to a grocery store for a delicious high-end catering experience, but local islanders know that this is the place to go for events big and small.
They worked with us on every aspect of our menu from cocktail hour, appetizers, dinner, cake, and the bar. We tasted about a million items and settled on a plan that was not only delicious, but completely personalized and authentic to our tastes. Karl is a truly experienced professional who made excellent recommendations for rentals, party layout, and a million other details. When you get married on Sanibel and use Sanibel vendors, it feels like you are taken care of as part of a family.
On the wedding day the food was amazing and the whole serving staff was prompt, professional, and went above and beyond our expectations. I couldn't be happier!
