    CAC is a must use for your wedding day!

    CAC went above and beyond to deliver an amazing culinary experience for our wedding guests. CAC was so easy to work with and threw in many complimentary items to ensure we could achieve what we wanted for our wedding within a reasonable budget. They were kind, professional, and most importantly - had AMAZING food. I am still dreaming of the short rib, stuffed mushrooms and chicken taquitos. The food was truly incredible, but we also had fun experiences provided like a coffee/hot coco bar and a late night snack. Our guests raved about how great the food was. I couldn’t be more thankful for CAC and their white glove service!

    Unforgettable Culinary Excellence: A Wedding to Remember with Culinary Arts

    My experience with Culinary Arts Catering (CAC) for our wedding on November 4, 2023, was nothing short of spectacular. From the moment we began planning to the very last bite, every aspect of their service exceeded our expectations.

    First and foremost, the food was exceptional. It was evident that Chef Yossi takes immense pride in his culinary creations. Each dish was not only beautifully presented but also bursting with flavor. From the delicate hors d'oeuvres to the decadent main courses, every bite was a culinary delight. The quality of the ingredients and the skill of the chefs truly shone through, making our wedding meal an unforgettable experience for us and our guests.

    Moreover, the service provided by CAC was impeccable. The wait staff was not only professional and attentive but also incredibly friendly and accommodating. Melissa, Collin, and Loren, in particular, went above and beyond to ensure that every detail was taken care of. Their warmth and dedication made us feel like part of the Culinary Arts family, and their presence added an extra layer of joy to our special day.

    Speaking of our guests, the compliments we received about the food were endless. Many of our friends and family members couldn't stop raving about how delicious everything was. From heavenly hors d'oeuvres to the perfectly cooked salmon, CAC left a lasting impression on everyone in attendance. It was clear that their commitment to excellence permeated every aspect of our wedding meal, making it a highlight of the day for all.

    In conclusion, I cannot recommend Culinary Arts highly enough. If you're in the DFW area and looking for top-notch cuisine, impeccable service, and a team that feels like family, look no further. Our wedding day wouldn't have been the same without them, and we are forever grateful for the unforgettable culinary experience they provided. Thank you, Culinary Arts Catering, for making our special day truly extraordinary

    Absolutely phenomenal!

    Culinary Art Catering is phenomenal! Lorenne and Collin are so fantastic to work with. Everyone is prompt to respond, has a great attitude, and are beyond helpful. Our wedding was this past month, we had a seated dinner for 120 people. Guests have been raving about how incredible the food was! We couldn't have asked for a better catering experience!

    Bate and switch food selection

    We hired the Culinary Arts with great expectations for quality, presentation and fabulous service for our daughter wedding at the Dallas Arboretum. This was not the case for quality of food or service. We meet with Chef Yossi several weeks earlier and reviewed the presentation and sampled and photographed the food at our lunch meeting. The final food delivered to our wedding reception for 205 guest was not what we contracted for or remotely the same as the original agreement. We have pictures from both events. We had a complaint regarding the food, presentation, texture to the manager Vivian Morgan, Melissa Lopez and the Chef Yossi, they were all extremely arrogant, spoke over the client and didn't want to listen to our complaint for the selected meat. The Chef is beyond arrogant, demeaning when talking to a women client, you can barely understand what he is stating in a conversation, extremely unprofessional, switch and bate for the food texture and presentation. Chef Yossi thinks he's right and stated he has never had a complaint. The presentation was completely different, no one cared how to help resolve the customer and every person at The Culinary Arts becomes offended when you tell them there food was not what was expected in the presentation and texture for the meat. We contracted for a braised roast beef and received the complete opposite. Please choose a company who cares about their client and presentation. This company will not be around for long with the arrogant responsive attitude, very sweet up front, but in the end extremely rude and unprofessional.

    Arrogant, average and would not recommend!

    The Dallas Arboretum restricts you to particular vendors to work with for catering, and for this reason we went with CAC. Nothing quite impressive as to why we went with them, other than they were prompt to respond to my email before anyone else! When we had our tasting with my parents, the presentation looked great of food. When served to our guests though, the "sun-dried tomato chicken" looked like chicken with gravy slopped on top. The "braised roast beef" looked like I could've picked up at Luby's. The presentation was entirely different than what we paid for or ate, I would say it was average or below. When called after the wedding to discuss the food, Melissa Lopez was indirectly demeaning as if no criticism could possibly be tolerated and to cater 200 meals was nothing, they could not spend less time on them. Really unimpressed with the quality of food for the price and presentation. Not only this but calling afterwards it was really reflected they do not care for you or quality after you pay. I personally would not spend time entertaining this caterer.

    Don't hesitate to book!

    Can't say enough wonderful things about CA Catering! We received several bids and ultimately chose them because of how responsive, friendly and flexible they were during this process. They made every change we requested (there were a lot) promptly and with a smile on their face, and with helpful suggestions along the way. Our event was attended by interior designers from all over Dallas - a hard to please bunch of people - and we are still receiving compliments on the food and catering a month later. I wouldn't hesitate to use them again.

    Fantastic job at Alex Camp House!

    Culinary Art Catering did a FANTASTIC job catering my daughter's wedding at the Dallas Arboretum this past weekend. Everyone we encountered was professional and warm, from the chef to the office staff to our assigned coordinator, Lorenne. I had a lot of specific requests about certain things and every single one of them was handled beautifully. I always have fairly low expectations about food at a wedding, but our dinner was great. We received numerous compliments and everyone loved it, especially the beef short ribs. I highly recommend this company. Ask for Lorenne and maybe you'll get lucky like I did and she'll be your assigned coordinator!!

    Best caterer ever!

    Culinary Arts Catering is the best caterer around! HUGE shoutout to Melissa! She is the BEST and I was so lucky to get to work with her. She made everything super easy and made me feel so special as a bride! You won’t have to worry about anything if you hire CAC, the staff is incredible and will make the night seamless. I could not have asked for a better caterer than CAC!! 😊

    Amazing food and service!

    Culinary Art Catering was a delight to work with from start to finish. The food was delicious and most of our guests made note to tell us during our reception! They offer a plethora of different cuisine, so you can really go with anything you want to have on your big day. We served Mexican food and it was a hit with our friends and our family from San Antonio! The staff was friendly, professional, and attentive. Several stars to them!

    Best Caterer Ever!!

    It’s difficult to put into words how incredible Culinary Arts is. They made our wedding day entirely stress free. It all started with Melissa, she was so quick to respond and did a lot of hand holding with me to ensure I understood what to expect and ensure the day was everything we wanted. She even helped me with our timeline. When we arrived to our reception, everything was done and we had nothing to do with it. The bartender, Ray, was a huge hit and was serving up “Ray Specials” to a bunch of our guests all night. The food tasted amazing and the whole crew that was serving was sweet and timely. They completely took care of us and we could just enjoy. They also knew our venue space and cleaned up entirely without us getting involved. I can’t recommend them enough.

    Daughter's wedding

    Melissa was wonderful to work with. From the beginning they were organized, and very flexible especially with the COVID 19 conditions. I appreciated their ideas for dealing with the virus while still giving us great service for my daughter's wedding! Many compliments on the food!

    Delicious!

    We hired Culinary Art for our wedding on 9/21/19. The entire process was simple and seamless leading up to the day. They were great with communication and making sure we we’re getting them the information they needed on time. We were able to choose a menu for our wedding, and make adjustments for what we wanted. We then did a tasting and the food was SO good! The day of the wedding went perfect. The food was ready on time, the mini brisket taco appetizer was a hit, and the potato-tini station was definitely a crowd favorite. People are still talking about how good the food was and how much they loved the potato-tini station! I would 100% recommend them!

    Outstanding!

    Culinary Art Catering did an outstanding job at our wedding! It was very important to my husband and I to have delicious food, nice presentation, professionalism and friendliness from the staff. Culinary exceeded our expectations! I will start with the food. We had so many people tell us how great the food was! Seriously, everything we had was so good! The “Potini” (mashed potatoes in a martini glass) were a huge hit! Also, we chose to have food stations. The presentation of each station was something I was worried about, but everything was set up very nicely and looked super elegant just like I imagined! All of the staff from start to finish are really friendly. (Annie is so helpful and so nice)! We were really impressed at all the smiling faces and polite manners from the staff. All the employees whether it’s in the office or the serving staff all seem to enjoy their jobs and it shows! I highly recommend Culinary Art Catering!
