    Amazing food!

    Delectables has been great to work with from the beginning. Janice was a huge help and always available to answer any questions I had or make any changes I needed to make. The food was amazing, my family is still raving about the quality of the food and the sit down service. Everyone knows the bride and groom barely have any time to eat and Delectables took this into consideration. They saved some of our hors d'oeuvres from cocktail hour and brought it to us to eat. Everything went smoothly, cannot recommend them enough!

    Amazing!

    Delectables catering catered our wedding in April and they were AMAZING!
    Janice was very helpful from the very beginning. She helped create the perfect package for us for a great price! the food was absolutely delicious! We had seated dinner , dual plate (steak, chicken, 2 sides, and salad) Everyone loved it! We did 2 tastings before the wedding and that went great as well.
    The servers and bartenders were super nice, friendly and professional!
    Highly recommend Delectables Catering!! 10/10😊
    Huge Thank You!

    Great experience for wedding with Delectable

    Delectable was our catering choice for our wedding in March of 2023 at the Tampa Garden Club. We could not have been more satisfied with our overall experience with Delectable. Janice was our rep, who worked with us every step of the way for almost a year planning out exactly what we wanted for catering during our wedding. She was timely in her responses and flexible in accommodating what we had in mind. Although we were originally a little disappointed they did not offer individual tastings, the group tastings are a great opportunity to try a variety of items to solidify your menu. And you can typically attend multiple! On the day of the wedding everyone was so thrilled with the quality of our dinner and our guests loved the hors d'oeuvre. Dinner came out in a timely manner and multiple guests mentioned how friendly the bartenders were all evening. Again, we could not be more happy with our experience working with Delectable Catering.

    Delectables Fine Catering - So good!

    We interviewed several caterers for my daughter's wedding. I'm usually disappointed with catered food and i am thrilled that Delectables delivered a 5 star buffet. Every guest enjoyed the food, the coffee, the bread table, and the service. The staff was experienced and professional and I'm so glad we chose them for our memorable event.

    Wonderful wedding meal

    Contracted with Delectables for our daughter and son-in-laws 11/26/2022 wedding. Can't recommend Delectables Catering enough! They were outstanding in both service and food quality. Our guests raved about the food from the seafood appetizers served pass around style through the beef and chicken buffet meal service for our 100 guests. They even went beyond expectations and handled special meals for our 3 young guests with severe egg allergies so the kids could enjoy a special dinner! LOVED the service by Delectables throughout the planning to wedding experience. You won't regret using them!

    Delicious Food, Amazing & Professional Service

    My husband and I had the good fortune of having Delectables cater our wedding reception in May of 2022 at Nova 535 in St. Pete. I am so glad we did! Having yummy food was one of our top priorities for our party, and Delectables knocked it out of the park. The food was delicious and we got so many compliments on it! We went with the Tropical Nights menu, and found it was the perfect option to appeal to our guests (about a quarter of whom were Nigerian and the remainder American). We worked with Gabrielle throughout the planning phase. She was very professional and responsive, and made the whole process so easy. Delectables was one of the preferred vendors at Nova 535, so the venue and catering teams communicated and worked together seamlessly and required very little from us. They also worked closely with our cake baker (Cakes by Corey) and offered us free cake cutting which was awesome. I highly recommend Delectables!

    Excellent Catering!

    Delectables catered our wedding at Sunken Gardens, and it was absolutely amazing. We chose a buffet-style service, which felt more like an upscale catering experience than anything resembling what you might think when you hear “buffet” at a wedding. Their servers were attentive, the food was some of the best we and our guests have ever tasted, and they were so amazing to work with in general. They also had incredible passed d’oeuvres for our cocktail hour (we were able to select 5 from a list of more than 20 or 30 amazing options). In addition, they coordinated with us to ensure that they had the right linens available for our theme. I will likely work with them again in the future on coordinating corporate events with my employer. We highly recommend them!

    Great food and staff

    This place was great Janice was so easy to work with and get in contact with I changed my guest count multiple times and she was always happy to help update it. The food was so good and came out hot I even had my guests after the wedding talking about how much they enjoyed it. The wait staff was friendly and helpful. I’m so glad I picked delectables to cater the wedding.

    The Best Wedding Caterers!

    My partner and I couldn't have been more impressed with Delectables! Janice and Laurie were an absolute pleasure to work with. They walked us through each and every step, made recommendations, and answered any and all questions promptly. We had around 120 guests with hors d'oeurvres (beggar's purses, croustades, mushroom caps, asparagus crepes) and a plated dinner (eggplant rollatini, chicken boursin, filet mignon chasseur) with a salad (caprese salad) and starch side (duchess potatoes). They also took care of ALL linens which made the setup coordination a breeze. It's been over two months since our wedding and our family and friends are STILL bringing up how delicious the food was and how wonderful the service was! Everyone at Delectables had such a positive and professional attitude and it made the planning process seamless and exciting. I highly, highly, highly recommend them! Thank you so much, Laurie and Janice!

    Delectables is amazing! They just catered my wedding this past weekend at the Lange Farm in Dade City. The food was amazing, everyone was thrilled with the choices!

    The cocktail hour was amazing. The Reuben bites were definitely my favorite! Even one of the waitresses came out to give my husband and I food while we were taking pictures during cocktail hour.

    The dinner was amazing the filet and chicken combo was definitely a hit with everyone. The staff even asked us when we wanted to have our dinner brought out to us, or if we needed anything warmer.

    I cannot say enough about how friendly the waitstaff was, everyone was so helpful and would do anything to help out! I even had a waitress help fix my bustle on my dress after it broke. All the little things the wait staff did was amazing!

    I would definitely recommend Delectables to anyone!!

    Flexible, Stress-Free

    We worked with Janice to customize our dinner to work for our families. We were able to do 1/2 portions of chicken and steak for our meals that helped us in our wedding planning because we only had to ask our guests whether they had allergies/dietary restrictions instead of asking for meal choices from our 120 guests. The staff were the friendliest we've ever encountered at a wedding and they even saved us a couple of massive plates full of the hors d'oeuvres from the cocktail hour that we missed because of photos. My husband's family is Italian from Pittsburgh so we had a cookie table set up that the serving staff made sure was replenished throughout the night. Whatever ideas you have for your wedding menu and other treats, Delectables can make it happen! Guests kept coming up to us and complimenting the food all night.

    Get Delectables Fine Catering Inc. for Your Wedding

    Delectables Fine Catering Inc. catered my wedding earlier this month. One word to sum up the experience with them is AMAZING. From the beginning of the whole process, I received timely communication and transparency from their corporate and social event coordinator named Gabrielle. She answered all of my 100 questions thoroughly and without frustration. Me and my wife live out of state so we couldn't attend one of their free taste testing that they have every first Sunday of every month. We were able to book two private taste testing though for 100$ a session (up to 4 people can attend). While at the taste testing we was able to figure out what hors d'oeuvre we wanted for the wedding (chicken satay, shrimp and grits, meatballs in marinara sauce, risotto croquettes, and spanakopita) and what entrees we wanted for the plated combination dinner (filet mignon and mahi mahi martinique)

    On the wedding day, the wait staff made sure me and my wife was well taken care of. During cocktail hour me and my wife stayed in the bridal suite to get some downtime before the wedding reception started. The wait staff checked on us multiple times to make sure we had enough hors d'oeuvre and drinks. During the wedding reception, the wait staff would come by our table (sweetheart table) to make sure everything was alright. All the comments I have heard from the guests that attended the wedding are all positive. They said the food was delicious and that the wait staff was very professional and friendly. We had the premium brand liquor open bar for approximately 100 guests. There was no issue of any liquor running out. We had a few guests that cancelled last minute with attending the wedding, therefore we had extra food. Delectables Fine Catering Inc. was kind to put the extra food in food boxes that we provided. If you are in the Tampa Bay area and are looking for a caterer for a wedding I highly recommend that you do business with Delectables Fine Catering Inc. You will get alot of value and wonderful service for a very good price. You and your guests will be satisfied.

    Great food quality.

    Delectables did a fantastic job at my wedding. I really liked their professionalism, friendliness, and promptness. Their food is amazing. Definitely go to their complementary food tasting. You will not regret it. They are very flexible, understanding and respectful. Janice, the wedding coordinator worked with all my ideas and helped me choose the right menu. Thank you all!

    Great experience!

    My daughter started planning for her wedding in June for Oct 16, 2021. She didn't want a traditional wedding with large tables, a specific time for eating, etc. but preferred a more relaxed setting that you would normally get at a house party. We couldn't find a house that would fit 100 people, so she finally chose a rooftop venue that had just started doing weddings and offered some challenges to the catering companies (one not very big elevator, no kitchen, etc.) We spoke to several companies, but Janice, with her experience and creativity, was able to figure out all our wants and needs and then actually execute as promised! And the cost was reasonable too. We chose a semi-custom menu with passed hors d'oeuvres, several platters, and dishes from the tropical luau menu. The hot food stayed hot and moist throughout the reception, including the Mahi! The food was 'delectable', the staff was friendly and professional, and the guests were delighted! I would call Janice in a heartbeat if I needed a catering company again! Thank you, Janice, so much! BTW, don't pass up on the cucumber water...it's incredible!

    "Best wedding food I've ever had"

    They say the food is one of the things guests will remember most about your wedding….if that is true, then I had one of the most memorable weddings ever! I can’t even count how many times I was told “this is the best food I have ever had at a wedding”! In addition to creating a menu of glorious goodies, Janice and her team at Delectables were incredibly friendly, responsive, accommodating, and very professional. Any time I ever need catering for anything, I know exactly where I will go first!

    Amazing Food, Amazing Staff

    My daughter recently married and we used Delectables Catering. This is the third event that I have used them for and I have to say they never disappoint. The food was amazing as usual, the staff was helpful to me when I was setting up tables and very attentive to the bride and groom during dinner. Janice was very responsive to my many questions and last minute changes. Everything was perfect and I will be using them again for sure.

    Delicious- but really get the chicken and waffles!

    Everyone LOVED the food! We served the chicken and waffles, seafood shooters, bruschetta, and strawberry cream cheese things as starters and honestly, which we could’ve had a meal just of those! Everyone was screaming and “yum”ing and they were DELICIOUS! Then at dinner we served braised beef and jerk chicken which also was amazing! Everyone that we have spoken to cleaned their plate and absolutely was impressed with the food! So yum!

    Amazing caterer, quality, decor and price!

    Delectables is by far our favorite caterer for large events. Janice is the most patient person and so knowledgable! We really enjoyed the food (so did our guests!) at our wedding, the decor is excellent, timely, personable, food options are wonderful and Delectables was amazing in catering to our needs of several food intolerances, dietary needs and preferences of our guests. Love it and would always choose Delectables again! (Side Note: their chicken Boursin dish is THE best!)

    Sunken Garden Wedding 5/8/21

    We recently hired Delectables to cater my daughters wedding at Sunken Gardens. We waited until we had a tasting to decide at each of the caterers we had selected and chose Delectables because the food was outstanding! (During COVID!)Then we spoke with Janice Bleu and knew we had chosen the right catering company. Any time we had a question about linens, food or guest selections she responded immediately and was so easy to work with. All our guests raved about how good the food was and how unique some of the dishes were (potatoes shaped like mushrooms etc) the bread, the service was excellent. They made special vegan meals for the bride and some of our guests including some appetizers. The presentation was beautiful and classy which we were going for. They helped make our only daughter’s wedding very special. Thank you to Jim, Janice and crew for a spectacular wedding.

    Catering Excellence

    We met the Delectables team through the venue my daughter and her new husband chose for their wedding. There were so many options that were delicious, it was hard for us to make choices for the reception, but Janice - one of the catering managers, gave us great advice. The food was outstanding! Our guests were raving about everything, and best of all for many of our guests - all entrees are gluten free! The food displays were very pretty, and made our buffet look wonderful. The service was professional and so friendly, and they played a huge part in helping us to have a wonderful reception. I would highly recommend Delectables, they are excellent.

    Food was amazing

    The food was amazing! My husband and I thought it was good at the couple of tasting we went to, but the day of was even better! Janice and Delectable were so easy to work with. I think the price was a steal for the quality and quantity we got. I would highly recommend them.

    Fantastic service, food and communication! I highly recommend them!

    We used delectables for our wedding and our guests raved about the food! We also thought it was delicious and I appreciated the staff had a plate of food waiting for us at our table right as we walked into our reception! They were very easy to work with and the communication was great the whole way through. They have a large selection to choose from and many different plate options, stations, desserts etc. I highly recommend them and we will use them for future events!

    Good food, good value, good service

    Delectables was a pleasure to work with. They were flexible, accommodating, and affordable, and the food was great! The servers also made sure my groom and I were well taken care of. I couldn't recommend this company enough!
