Upstairs Downstairs was amazing all around!

We catered Upstairs Downstairs for our wedding and are so grateful we did because not only was the food amazing, the staff was just as sweet and amazing. Our guests were so impressed with the food and service. They were so helpful and accommodating from the very beginning. They answered any questions we had as well as helped us navigate through what to do for one of our guests who had a nut allergy.

Great to work with!

We are so thankful we went with Upstairs Downstairs for our caterers for our wedding. They truly went above and beyond for us. I’ll admit we weren’t the easiest couple to plan with, but they were so patient and understanding with us the entire step of the way.

We worked with Dan a lot and he truly made us feel so comfortable and welcome throughout the whole process. After our first tasting we were still unsure of what to serve and they graciously invited us for a second tasting. We were still unsatisfied with one of the options and they invited us back to taste it yet again to see if they had made it to our liking (which they did)!

They also were able to make family recipes with us and collaborate on creating new recipes which turned out delicious. Having a winter wedding, we thought a soup instead of a salad would be a nice change to warm everyone up. I asked that they try out my mother’s Portuguese green bean soup which they absolutely nailed!

We also had quite a few food sensitivities amongst our guests and they were extremely accommodating allowing guests to select individual options that suited their needs.

Overall, we can’t thank them enough for how fantastic they were. The food was delicious, the service was impeccable, and the night went seamlessly.

Best wedding food ever

Kayla was wonderful to work with during this process. We got to try several food options before deciding anything, and they were all so good that we knew our wedding buffet was going to be a hit. They were very accommodating about having sauces on the side and changing the ravioli from porta bella to cheese within the last month before the wedding. Everyone raved about the food and how good it was. We got cupcakes through UpDown as well. There seemed to have been some confusion on the day of the wedding of who was providing them (they thought we were and they were just putting them out for us) but they made a call and got us the cupcakes we ordered. We also had a late night snack - a nacho bar - that was a crowd pleaser. They wrapped up all the leftover food for us to take home. Would definitely recommend them!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
