    AMAZING food and service!

    Della Terra provided the food for our year-end Snohomish Farmers Market board meeting, and it was absolutely incredible! The staff that delivered the food was friendly, professional and efficient. Everything we ordered was delicious and the servings were larger than expected. Highly recommend!

    Amazing Food, Incredible Service!

    Della Terra’s food was a huge hit at our wedding! We knew we made the right choice months prior, when we went to a tasting night at their property. My mom, bridesmaids and I were able to sample several appetizers and entrees, and we loved our experience with the food and the staff. Della Terra delivered excellent quality at our wedding, with beautifully presented farm-to-table style food. Guests raved about how delicious it was and they went back for seconds. We scarfed down leftovers the next day, too! Their staff were friendly, easy to work with, and they even fixed an individual plate of food for a family member who does not eat from buffets due to a kidney transplant. Highly recommend Della Terra, and so glad we chose them to cater our wedding!

    Exceptional Attention to Dietary Allergies

    I just love Della Terra and the elevated experience they provide. Super friendly staff and they go above and beyond in providing not only quality dishes, but if food allergies are a concern, you do not have to worry. Della Terra takes extra care in listening to and providing a special accomodations to suit any need. Thank you Della Terra for an amazing experience!

    Amazing Food and Service

    We hired Della Terra for our wedding on 6/10/23 and they did an amazing job. We worked with them for a long time leading up to the wedding because we had the time and they were super responsive. We were also able to go to two tastings to help us refine our menu for our wedding and decide between family style and buffet style. We ended up going with family style and every course was awesome on our big day.

    We got so much positive feedback from our guests the rest of the night and when we saw some of them the next day. We were lucky enough to have Chef Cody on site for our big day and it gave me such a sense of calm when I saw him there on the day of because I knew the food would for sure be a hit (and I was right).

    Could not recommend more highly!

    Della Terra is simply the best when the best matters to you.

    Della Terra is simply the best in catering! The food is absolutely delicious, the presentation so spot on and the team are not only gracious and kind but a complete delight to work with. When you need a caterer, this is the team to call. We have used them twice now for our fundraisers for Bridge Receiving Center and they are simply the best!

    Great fresh seasonal food and great people!

    We couldn't have been happier from start to finish with Della Terra! From going to our first tasting and meeting Cody and staff, they were absolutely the best. After tasting many different caterers, Della Terra was by far the best tasting, best value, and friendliest group we talked to. They did a great job working with us over two tasting to refine our menu and make updates based on our preferences. The day of, they executed perfectly and we received so many compliments from our guests on the quality and freshness of the food. They provided plenty of food for our very hungry guests and even had leftovers which was perfect for us to take after our wedding. 100% would recommend and will think of Della Terra for any future catering needs!

    Amazing food & a wonderful set of people we plan to support again!

    Chef Cody & Della Terra were absolutely amazing to work with! We reached out to Della Terra at the beginning of COVID and were immediately impressed by Chef Cody's ingenuity to do take-home tastings to help us learn more about his services (this was March 2020). The food was absolutely amazing and we quickly hired Della Terra as caterers for our wedding reception.

    Soon after booking, we were told our wedding venue could not host our wedding, and Chef Cody was incredibly helpful with venue recommendations. Unfortunately we ended up having to go with a venue that had exclusive catering already, but Chef Cody was again amazing to work with and offered to put our deposit towards a catered rehearsal dinner at our home instead.

    A few weeks before the rehearsal, Chef Cody visited us to learn more about our kitchen & the space, and on the night of the rehearsal, he & Della Terra served an amazing meal to us, our close family, and bridal party. Every detail Della Terra was a part of was wonderful (they even left our kitchen spotless afterwards), and our guests loved the food more from Della Terra than they did at our reception!

    Not only is Della Terra an amazing catering company for their food, but also we feel truly honored to have partnered with them as people. Their winery recommendations are now our go-to places for special events and we're excited to sign up for some Della Terra holiday meals in the new year to continue supporting this amazing business!

    From countless guests "This is the best wedding food we've ever had!"

    I can't say enough about how much we enjoyed working with Della Terra from the first tasting to the big event! The passion, craftsmanship, integrity and enthusiasm is evident and it made it such a delight to work with the team. We got so many compliments on the food, MONTHS after the wedding, and the staff was attentive, positive, quick on their feet, and above and beyond helpful.

    I was really floored that, in the pouring rain, they took the time to load all of our decorations and extra food into our RV. We were sopping wet and thought we would need to take care of this, but the staff was already 2 steps ahead of us.

    This is a top notch team and just incredible PNW fresh local healthy food, I can't recommend them enough!

    Delicious food and nice staff!

    We hired Della Terra for our wedding in September and had a great experience with them!  They had the best food of all the companies we did tastings of and our guests at the wedding all complimented the food too.  Cody was incredibly nice and professional every time we interacted with him, and he easily accommodated all of our requests.  Everything went seamlessly at the wedding.

    Fantastic!

    My husband and I recently used Della Terra for our wedding in August. We loved every step of the process working with Cody and his team! From the very beginning, at our catering tasting, it was apparent that Cody really loves and cares about what he's doing. He was willing to listen and create a menu that fit our exact preferences and needs, with very reasonable pricing (and delicious food)! At our wedding, everyone was pleased with the service and level of professionalism his whole team had to offer. The food was always hot and the staff was very friendly and attentive. It felt like a fine dining experience. I would love to use Della Terra again if the situation ever arises. I couldn't recommend them more!

    Best Tortillas Ever

    Cody is great! He is very quick to respond and really knows his stuff. We raved non stop about the food after our tasting. Everything he cooks is so tasty and fresh. We did the Southwest by Northwest buffet which was a fancier taco bar. Our tasting had the BEST hatch Chile corn tortillas! Everyone we told was excited to try those. The only negative we had was that those same tortillas were no where at our wedding. That was our favorite thing! The tortillas we received were flour or corn and store bought and it just wasn't the same as the tasting at all. I couldn't tell from our emails that this had changed on the menu so it was disappointing. Our guests seemed to really like the food though and we heard good things from everyone throughout the night!

    Local, Fresh & Delicious! Della Terra is the BEST!

    We were blown away the first time we met Cody and tried one of his free wedding tastings! He is a wonderful guy, with a true passion for what he does, and he is a fabulous chef!! My husband and I love fresh, local, farm to table food, and we're hoping to be able to serve something along these lines for our wedding that didn't break the bank. Cody helped us create a menu that was delicious, healthy, creative, and still worked within our budget. His staff went above and beyond to make sure our guests were well taken care of at the reception by attending to the buffet, clearing plates, filling water glasses, and all doing it with great attitudes and smiles :) We cannot thank the Della Terra team enough for making our day go seamlessly! If you need a caterer for a wedding or any other event, we definitely recommend you go with Cody and his crew!!

    Awesome guy. Amazing food.

    Cody and team were incredible! He came to our house and cooked us a sample meal just to get to know him, review a potential wedding menu, and taste test his cooking. He is super down-to-earth, incredibly flexible, and his food is phenomenal. He was the first caterer we interviewed and we cancelled all the other introductions about 30 seconds after he left. We threw several menu changes and various food allergies his way and he accommodated all of them graciously. On wedding day, his team worked their magic around wandering guests in a tiny kitchen, executing flawlessly with great attitudes. Would recommend in a heart beat.

    Della Terra Catering's reply:

    Thank you so much, Benjamin! It was an honor to cater your big day- you all were a pleasure to work with, as well! Best wishes in your new adventures.

    True Farm-to-Table catering and great customer service.

    We hired Cody and his team to cater our 80+ person wedding at our farm. Delicious seasonal menu with high quality locally sourced ingredients. Very fair pricing, especially considering the ingredients used.

    The. Best. Food.

    Seriously better than any option in and around Snoho venues. I had Cody do all the dinner and apps for my vow renewal in June '18. I've been in the industry as a DJ for 10 years in the local market, so I've tasted/tested MANY catering offerings among the local wedding vendors. Cody kills it. Delicious food, hard worker, great responsiveness, competitive prices... overall awesome experience and highly recommended.

    Delicious and seamless!!

    Cody is truly an artist when it comes to food- and I knew right away Della Terra would impress and satisfy my guests. We had a vow renewal and 40 guests. Cody was able to accommodate our vegan/vegetarian guests with equally as impressive dishes as the meat-eaters. The only constructive advice I would offer would be to send couples the questions that will be asked during the final phone call so that they can have time to think through answers and logistics- I found myself scrambling a bit last minute and I think those questions would be super helpful earlier in planning process, especially for folks who haven’t used catering before.

    I will always recommend Cody and his team and I am so grateful to them for their hard work!!

    Best Wedding Food Ever

    Great food and staff! Many of our guests said it was the best food they’d ever had at a wedding, which is quite the compliment. If you want to know you’re going to have great food that will impress your guests, hire Della Terra.

    Wonderful wedding dinner!


    Dellaterra catered our son’s wedding on July 2nd at our home. The crew did a beautiful job. As mother of the groom I was busy running around and visiting with guests so I did not get to thank the crew directly. Our wedding coordinator said they were really great to work with, really wanted to please and were organized. I barely saw them arrive, set up and leave!

    The food was really great. Everyone raved about all the appetizers (prosciutto wrapped peach, strawberry crostini, cider braised pork sliders and chimichurri steak skewers). For dinner peoples favorites were the mediterranean farro salad, the aqua pizza cod fish and the spinach salad. The only disappointment was the chicken…a bit dry. I loved the leftovers also and made an amazing potato cod fish soup and chicken pasta.

    Thanks again! I will definitely use you again if an occasion arrives!

    Their food is the BEST!!

    We LOVED having della terra cater our wedding. They provided a beautiful buffet and everything was SO delicious. We had the great experience of doing a dinner with della terra at another event previously, and immediately knew we wanted them to cater our wedding. We both love good food, as do many of our friends and family members, so we knew food would be a big part of our budget and an important decision. We had so much fun at the tastings figuring out what we wanted to serve, and everything turned out amazing! Months later and people were STILL talking about the citrus mascarpone polenta, which was only just one of the many sides we chose! Everything was delicious and we were just bummed we were going straight to a hotel afterwards and then to our honeymoon, so we couldn't take leftovers home. We would have eaten it all for a week after! We'd absolutely recommend della terra to anyone looking for good local farm to table delicious food!

    Exceptional Meal

    Della Terra catered a significant birthday party for me and my 25 guests. They provided and served a plated meal in several courses. The food and the service were exceptionally good. And I am very picky! Cody willingly accommodated my whims, and gladly accepted my requests for customizations of the menu and timing of the courses. Everything came off perfectly. All my guests commented on the amazing quality of Cody’s cooking and the friendliness of his staff. To top it off, we were in an open-air pavilion with very minimal kitchen facilities on a November evening. But Cody and his crew still delivered the perfect meal. I highly recommend the leek soup and beef tenderloin, which was beautifully prepared.

    Summer 2021 wedding

    Della Terra catered our wedding on 7/24, and we still have guests talking about how phenomenal our wedding food was! The quality of our dinner was super important to us as a couple, and Della Terra went above and beyond. Our experience leading up to the wedding was a bit stressful, as we felt we weren’t able to communicate with our caterer as much as we would have liked, but we understood that this summer is particularly crazy for the industry, and they were absolutely slammed and booked with weddings! We’re so thankful we chose Della Terra, and would absolutely recommend them for your upcoming wedding. It’s pretty great having wedding food be a majorly memorable part of your day!

    Della Terra Catering's reply:

    Hello Kensie (and Tim),

    Thank you so much for your thoughtful and gracious review. It was a beautiful wedding, and you were wonderful to work with!
    Glad to hear that guests are still talking about the food - that is definitely the goal! Please let us know if we can be of service in the future.
    I am bummed that we couldn't be a bit faster in communicating with you. We did get way behind on e-mails in July due to record business and inquiries, though I know this is no excuse since you did need answers to help with planning for the big day. We are working on systems to be a bit faster and better at communication in the future.
    Best wishes to you on your marriage and new adventures together. Hope we can meet and cook for you again at your 50th anniversary (or hopefully much sooner) next time you are in the PNW.

    All the best,
    Cody Castiglia
    Chef/Owner, Della Terra

    Excellent food, lacking communication

    Overall we enjoyed having Della Terra as the caterer for our wedding. However, the experience wasn't entirely perfect. With regards to the food itself, everything was delicious. There is a very wide selection of menus and items to choose from, and everything is made with quality and care. Everyone really loved the food. Beyond the food, there were a few issues. Communication with Della Terra was spotty at best, and unfortunately they forgot to bring a side dish (one which we were really looking forward to) we had ordered. Thankfully we didn't have to pay for the missing food, and there was still more then enough food. We'd still recommend Della Terra, but be prepared to put in extra effort communicating with them, and consider checking in with them on the day of to make sure they bring everything you ordered.
