Still getting compliments about the food!

We had a phenomenal experience with Perfect Pear. They were super responsive and adapted to every single one of our requests.

We loved that they wanted to walk through the venue before the big day to make sure they had a good lay of the land, and I seriously cannot think of a single criticism. The food was incredible and the perfect temperature, and the setup was even nicer than I ever expected. We got so many compliments about how good the food was. Every interaction we had with their staff was super positive, and we were so happy everything went so smoothly.

The next time we have a catered event, we'll be hiring Perfect Pear again. We loved every single thing we ate, their friendliness toward us and our guests, and the totally stress-free process of working with them every step of the way!

Professional Service Team, Delicious Food!

Leni, Nikki, Amy, and Chef Oscar provided a delicious and beautifully arranged spread for a first birthday this past weekend and it was everything we had imagined and more! From the very moment we contacted this team, their communication was clear, quick, and professional. They were very willing to work with us to provide on-theme, creative bites that tasted as good as they looked. The service was on-time, kept impeccably clean, and they provided a way for the client to take home leftovers at the end of the celebration. We will absolutely use this professional team again for future events!

Flavorfull

Perfect Pear did an amazing job! Not only were we able to taste all the food at our wedding in full! But, we got 8 boxes of left overs to take home with us! EVERYONE at the wedding was happy with the food, from the kids to the adults, everyone was going back for seconds and the food has so much flavor and was presented so well! The staff was on it! They made sure we had everything we needed as the bride and groom, to making sure all our guests got everything they needed, serving drinks, they also came and found us before our send off and thanked us/presented us with a cookbook! We were blown away, couldn’t not have picked a better caterer!

Flexible and accommodating for a destination wedding

Leni was very responsive via phone and email, and flexible and accommodating with all of our Covid requests and destination wedding planning questions. Our food was delicious, and the staff at our home during the wedding evening were very professional and helpful.

Most Delicious Catering Ever!

Although we didn't have much time to sit down and eat at our wedding, The Perfect Pear team was essential in bringing us food as we were entertaining the guests! The food was absolutely fantastic and everyone just raved about the braised beef short rib and salmon. If you haven't tried shrimp and grit fritters, you MUST get them from The Perfect Pear!! We had an outdoor wedding, which in my mind I thought the food would be a disaster (because Florida and it was the coldest day of the year so far). But, I was so wrong. The team moved effortlessly through the space and it was almost like the just blended right in. We never even had a worry about the buffet table because everything was so well managed.

10/10 would use them to cater a future party and want all of our friends to use them in the future

Perfect Pear Catering absolutely NAILED IT!

Perfect Pear catered my wedding reception of 65 people. From the start, Leni was so open and flexible with me. She allowed me to interchange certain items on her menu, handled my guest's food allergies and even incorporated a veggie burger slider in the 'Slider Station' upon my request. Leni and her entire crew were so professional the entire night! I didn't have to second guess what was happening for a minute, literally a bride's dream come true. Also, HUGE shoutout to Jeremy. Unfortunately, the bartender I hired did not show up and Jeremy handled it until we found a replacement. He checked in on the groom and I frequently to see if we needed anything, food or drink. Everyone at my wedding was floored by how amazing my catering company was and I can't say thank you enough to all of you! Would ABSOLUTELY hire them again!!

The Perfect Caterers

The Perfect Pear went above and beyond to make our wedding perfect. Working in abnormal conditions, split between extreme heat and an atypical house setup, the team was hospitable, supportive, and, of course, the food was delicious! They did so many personal things to make our day special that I can't even begin to list them all in one review. Just book them - you'll thank yourself later.

The team at the Perfect Pear was wonderful. They answered all of our questions leading up to the wedding and went above and beyond to help us determine how much and what kind of food we would need, as well as plenty of other details we never would have thought of without their help. They had worked with our venue previously and so were very helpful in working out logistics and complying with the venue's rules. We did not worry at all on the day of the wedding, because we knew the Perfect Pear team would take care of everything we discussed, and they did! I would highly recommend them for your catering needs.

Rachel and the entire Perfect Pear team are true professionals! They serve some of the best tasting food in Jacksonville, and their staff is very efficient and friendly. Rachel does a great job creating delicious food with a beautiful presentation, and is great to work with as well. She offers a lot of creative menu options, and can create cuisine for a variety of tastes. At my most recent wedding with her, I got to try their friend green tomato appetizer and it was to die for! I would order a whole pan of those for myself if I could :) The Perfect Pear is certainly high on the list of caterers I regularly recommend!

The Perfect Pear adds a touch of class to any event. We worked a wedding with them recently, and the food not only tasted amazing, but the presentation itself was a work of art. We have recommended them to several of our brides and cannot wait to work with them again! They are truly fantastic.
