Great food, easy to work with

The food from Shirley's was delicious! They were very receptive to our requests and had a large selection to choose from. My friends with food allergies told me Shirley herself was the MVP of the wedding, as she kept checking on them throughout the night and created a delicious plate of food for them specifically. I'm only sad I didn't get to eat more on our wedding day!

Wonderful Experience & Food

What a wonderful catering company to work with! Shirley and the staff could not have been more friendly, flexible, and accommodating. From the start, Shirley made the process a breeze. We were given plenty of hors d'oeuvres and dinner options - each one more delicious than the next. Even though it was tough to narrow down the selection, we were incredibly pleased with our final menu for our wedding. Our guests could not stop raving about the food and service. We are so happy we chose to work with Shirley's Catering for our special event.

Ae used Shirley’s at our rehearsal dinner, and the food was spectacular to say the least. All of our guests were very impressed and kept raving about how great the food was, and where we had gotten it from. They were able to customize a dessert that wasn’t on their menu we really wanted to have. Thank you so much again ladies! We will most certainly be using no one else for our any and all of our catering needs.

We cannot say enough amazing things about Shirley's Catering! Both the food and service that Shirley and her team provided were top notch. Our guests raved about how amazing everything was. Shirley personally walked around to each table to make sure the food was great for the guests. Shirley and her staff were also extremely attentive and made sure my husband and I had plenty to eat and drink the whole night. They even let us sneak into the caterers kitchen to enjoy some extra hors d'oeuvres! Overall, I would highly recommend Shirley! She is worth every penny and using her you can't go wrong!

Shirley and her stellar team catered our daughter's recent wedding and did a phenomenal job. From the initial food tasting through the end of the reception she and her team were exceptionally professional, responsive and focused on providing the best possible customer service - they succeeded! If you want absolutely delicious food at a reasonable cost and work with a top-notch team look no further than Shirley's Catering. We were so pleased with how Shirley delivered for our daughter's wedding, we intend to reach out to her again for special events in the future.

Shirley's Catering is incredible. Everyone I spoke to there was extremely kind and accommodating. My husband and I were worried about budgeting and Shirley's Catering offered their advice and were extremely helpful. Shirley came to scout the venue and was there wedding day. She and Tamika helped facilitate the reception. I was blown away by everyone's kindness and how helpful they all were. And the food is to die for! I tried every dish that they provided for the buffet and their passed appetizers. Everything was excellent. I would have kept eating all night if I didn't have to run around to socialize. Shirley's Catering will provide service that both you and your guests will enjoy and praise for years to come!

Highly recommend Shirley's Catering! From the tasting to the wedding, everything was perfect! Shirley herself was at our tasting getting our opinion on the food and offering suggestions. All the staff was very responsive whenever I needed to contact them. At our wedding, Shirley personally attended to tables to make sure everyone was happy with the food. All our guests raved about the food. I even have a friend who is now trying to recreate Shirley's fig chutney salmon because it was that good! I also highly recommend the watermelon rosemary water!

My wife and I were so impressed with the service we received from Gail. The food was excellent, but the presence and warm spirit of Gail made our experience extra special. It was a birthday surprise for my wife, last minute planned and I couldn't have been more pleased. I highly recommend her service and I will be a repeat customer in the near future!
