I cannot recommend True Cuisine highly enough!

I cannot recommend True Cuisine highly enough! From the moment we started working with Sarah Ridder, we knew we were in great hands. She was instrumental in developing our contract and floor plans, always providing timely responses and showcasing an impressive depth of knowledge.

On our wedding day, the staff truly exceeded our expectations. They were kind, attentive, and made us feel completely at ease. We felt confident that everything was under control, which allowed us to focus on enjoying our special day.

The set-up was absolutely stunning; True Cuisine captured our vision perfectly with the table and linen placements. We received countless compliments from our guests about the food—everything was delicious!

Thank you, True Cuisine, for making our wedding day unforgettable. We couldn’t have asked for a better catering experience!

Amazing food, wonderful people!

True Cuisine was absolutely amazing! Going into planning our wedding we were prepared to need to settle on the food, but we were greatly mistaken! Our friends and family are still raving about how good the food was. From inventive apps, to delicious mains - the food was SO good. The team was also incredible during the planning process - you can tell that they are true experts and love the work they do. It is also important to note how transparent they are with their pricing, this really set them apart from competitors and it is something that we greatly appreciated!

Lots of compliments from guests

We are so happy that we selected True Cuisine to cater our wedding! The food was outstanding and many guests complimented the quality as well as the variety and unique options. The bbq station for cocktail hour and the late night mac and cheese bar were big hits. Thank you, True Cuisine!
