Amazing catering!

We worked with Two Fat Men for our rehearsal dinner and our experience was phenomenal. Karen was so great to work with - she was friendly, accommodating, and quick to respond when we had questions and had to make changes due to covid. The food was fantastic and the service during our dinner was great. The whole team was very professional and made our rehearsal dinner just perfect. I am so thrilled we worked with Two Fat Men catering!

Would give 10 stars if I could!

These people are the REAL DEAL. From start to finish, Two Fat Men Catering was nothing but genuine, kind, accommodating, and professional. We felt like we were part of their family! Karen made every part of the planning process straight forward, and timely helped with all of my questions. Not to mention when COVID hit and we had to reschedule, she without question moved us to our new date and didn't charge extra, even when our guest count significantly decreased. She was one of my favorite vendors to see on our wedding day :) . Cannot recommend them enough - food was SO good, guests were beyond happy, and my husband and I cannot wait to come back to their restaurant for our 1st anniversary dinner!!

The Very Best!!

Two Fat Men catered my wedding and I cannot say enough great things about them! The food was DELICIOUS and absolutely incredible all around. Both the chicken and pulled BBQ pork were cooked to perfection, and the appetizers were out of this world! We had to make a lot of changes to the day because of COVID, but Karen was a gem to work with from the very beginning, and the rest of the staff was professional and genuinely so kind. I cannot wait to have them cater future events, I highly highly recommend them!

WOW! Delicious!

For my husband and I, food, photography, and music were our top three things to making guests feel welcomed at our event. Let me tell you, Karen and her team did an amazing job! We had a brunch menu, which seemed really trendy, but Two Fat Men catering brought some really unique ideas to the table. They were great at communicating and so professional, on top of delivering food that our guests are still talking about a year later. They have such a wide spread of specialties that I have no doubt they could meet the needs of your event!

Amazing from Start to Finish

I wouldn't have dreamed of having anyone but Two Fat Men cater for my big day! From start to finish, they were so easy to work with. Any changes or updates I needed to make to the menu or guest count were easily accommodated and the day of service was phenomenal. All my guests are still talking about how amazing the food was - if you're looking for options, I highly recommend the cornbread crusted chicken! They also provided an excellent bar tending service for me and even helped me with the cake cutting and provided the knife and cutting set, which saved me on some costs. All around, a wonderful company to work with; they really did go above and beyond. The food, staff and service were all top notch and I very highly recommend.

Wonderful People, Wonderful Food

We are so excited to work with Two Fat Men. The tasting was AMAZING! We also loved their kindness and hospitality. Blanca even came and picked us up from a nearby shopping center because we locked our keys in the car. We love them!

A few of our relatives have used TFM for their wedding. Their service was awesome, service staff was friendly and quick, and their food was delicious. We were hoping to have leftovers to take home but our guests loved the food so much many went for seconds!

We highly recommend Two Fat Men Catering! We were blown away by the tastings, and the night-of meal delivered on that promise! We worked with Debbie who was extremely professional & helpful and throughout the entire process, she went over and above to make our night spectacular. Debbie sent a beautiful basket full of petals from our flowers, snacks, wedding food and desserts (thank you) back to the honeymoon suite for us to enjoy. I had the perfect wedding day and owe so much to Two Fat Men. Thank you so much!
