  Delicious wedding dinner, support local, easiest experience!

  We hired El Chile Group for our November '23 wedding and could not have been more pleased! Mayra was incredible during the entire planning process and helped us with menu selection as well as all rentals (linens, plates, glassware) through them! We did their buffet + bar package, with the most amazing meal: brisket, chicken enchiladas & veggie enchiladas, sweet potatoes, white rice, salad, queso bar, amazing passed appetizers, and Mexican hot chocolate bar! They made our signature drinks (a chile salted marg, old fashioned and even a special cinnamon gin recipe we made!). Our guests loved the food and complimented how fresh and healthy it was, and the queso bar had a neverending line of excited guests! We loved that our wedding featured one of our favorite restaurants in town, and we didn't go with a company that is just a random catering big box group, like many of the ones in town that all are flavorless and soulless. Instead we got to support local and woman owned! And each of the workers at our event were sooo kind and helpful to our guests. Now whenever we go to El Alma, we get to order the queso and enchiladas and reflect on our best day ever. Seriously, just book El Chile Group!! You won't be disappointed and you'll be different than all the other Austin weddings that use the same companies who deliver a forgettable and overpriced meal. El Chile is where its at!

  Amazing catering

  The El Chile Group team was excellent! Our guests loved the food, with multiple saying it was the best wedding food they’d ever had. The El Chile team was thorough and professional throughout the process, from the tasting to follow up meetings to the special day. They paid special attention to allergies and even took time on the wedding day to check on an aunt who had a particular set of allergies that required an adjusted meal - they truly went above and beyond! Additionally, many guests commented on how awesome the bartenders were - they remembered peoples’ drinks and were super friendly all night - something my husband and I also experienced ourselves. Seriously, top notch service all around.

  Incredible Wedding Food, Responsive Vendor

  El Alma (El Chile Catering Group) was one of the best decisions we made for our 100 person wedding at Umlauf Sculpture Garden in April 2022. We tried at least 5 other caterers, but nothing compared to El Alma. We were initially hesitant that Mexican food would read casual, but the cuisine is actually elevated interior Mexican food, not Tex-Mex. It translated perfectly to a lush garden wedding with an intimate, family style service. All of the dishes - from the ahi tuna ceviche tostadas to the chicken with an incredible chipotle sauce - were flavorful. The staff did a great job at tailoring our menu to us and they were SO gracious and responsive throughout the planning process. You can tell the pride they take in their craft and we felt like they actually cared about us, which made a world of difference...especially when planning during peak Covid! I would 100% recommend El Alma (/El Chile Catering Group) to any bride out there.

  Incredible food and margaritas!

  El Chile was great! We love El Alma and it was so fun to get some of their food at our wedding. Sarah was incredibly professional and easy to work with. They were also very accommodating to my dietary needs and figured out a way to make their mole gluten free, which was incredible! The salmon was out of this world (it got so many compliments!!) and the margaritas were delicious. They also handled all the rentals and made everything so easy. Would absolutely recommend working with them!
