I wish I could give them a 10 star review. Working with Zesty Gourmet for my wedding went so smoothly. Leanne was fantastic to work with. She answered all of my questions in a timely and professional manner. If I needed help making a decision, she would help me with it. I have never planned a wedding before, so I had no idea what I was doing. My dad and I both have a gluten allergy. I found it to be somewhat difficult to find a company that could guarantee gluten free appetizers and main meal. There was one item for the appetizers and one for the main course that was not gluten free, but I specifically picked them out so I knew not to eat them. However, I could have done everything gluten free if I wanted to. The tasting was very professional. The staff answered all of our questions and would inform us which items me and my dad could not eat. The servers at the wedding were professional as well. Me and my groom were taken care of very well. If we needed something, whether it be a drink or wanted more food (we had a buffet), the wait staff would get it for us. There were people walking around clearing plates, refilling water glasses, etc. Our guests were taken care of, and they loved the food. I received so many compliments after the wedding about how great the food was.
Leanne and The Chef (her husband) did a phenomenal job at my wedding. I never felt lost or misguided, and if I was confused about something, Leanne helped me figured it out. She was on top of things and made sure everything, stuff I didn't even realize needed to be taken care of, was being taken care of.
I cannot thank Zesty Gourmet enough for the amazing job that they did.

Wonderful, Five Star Service
Zesty did the catering for my best friend's wedding and were a dream to work with. Leanne and Mark are super nice and friendly and very easy to communicate with. Their prices were more than fair, especially since the food was amazing. The charcuterie board at the cocktail hour was fantastic, and probably the best wedding hors d'oeuvres I've ever had. The dinner was great, on time, and all service was smooth. At the end of the wedding, I dreaded all the clean up I expected to have to do as maid of honor, but came back into the venue to see they had worked with the rental company and basically cleaned everything up for me already!

Amazing Caterer with the Nicest Staff
We sampled a number of caterers, and were surprised to find the place with the food we liked the best, was also the most reasonably priced. When you feel like you've gotten a deal, you keep waiting for the catch... It never came. Leanne was super responsive and easy to work with, when they didn't have an item during our tasting she repeatedly invited us back to the manor to try more items. She made the catering side of the wedding painless and easy. No bride likes surprises from their vendors the day of the wedding, in my case Leanne surprised us with an extra side, and coffee service that weren't ordered, but were very much appreciated. When we'd messed up one of the rental counts, she was there with back up supplies. My guest were constantly commenting on how nice her serving staff were. When the bar was slow, the bartenders were out in the party making sure everyone was good checking to see what they could take care of. There was no typical disaffected college student to be found. Would highly recommend!
