  Great food, great service

  Carly with Emelio's was fabulous. She was exceptionally helpful and responsive the whole way through. She answered all of our questions and offered advice via email and during our planning meetings. The whole staff was great on our wedding day- they made sure we were actually eating and drinking during all the festivities which kept us going! The food was delicious, and they were flexible with our requests. We would definitely recommend Emelio's catering to other couples.

  The BEST Caterer

  I had the best experience working with Emelio's Catering for my wedding! I worked with Haifa to help plan everything. She always responded quickly and it was obvious she genuinely cared about delivering great service. I received several compliments regarding the food and service they provided from guests! During the wedding, the staff was super friendly and continuously made sure my husband and I had everything we wanted. This is by far one of the easiest vendors I have worked with - everything went flawlessly. I highly recommend them!

  Outstanding Catering Company, Emilio's!

  5+ stars!
  Emilio's Catering is one of the best catering companies in the Columbus area!
  
  The staff were very well-timed, professional, and friendly. The food was outstanding, served hot and perfectly cooked.
  
  I had the pleasure of working one on one with the owner, Annett. She met all of our needs and went over and above to create the most beautiful table displays throughout the buffet and dessert area.
  
  If you are looking for a professional catering company for your wedding, I highly recommend Emilio’s Catering.

  A Hidden Gem

  The team at Emelios is truly a hidden gem in Columbus. From our initial tasting to our wedding they were there every step of the way to answer questions and provided top notch service. They came and set up the event space, helped us refine details for our big day. Their staff assisted us in every facet, creating a great atmosphere where our event could thrive. The food was delicious & they accommodated every dietary restriction we needed. I loved their attention to detail and they really helped our event shine.

  Simply a pleasure to do business with

  Our daughter and her fiancé selected Emelio's after a taste testing session. They made their decision based on the food selection and the friendly personnel at Emelio's.
  As the mother of the bride, once the big day got closer, I had the opportunity to work directly with Abigail from Emelio's to confirm all details. Abigail was professional, flexible and kind in her dealings with us.
  The night of the reception, everything was perfect. We received many compliments on how tasty the appetizers and the dinner were.
  Without any hesitation I recommend this catering service. Thanks to Abigail and the entire staff for all you did!

  My super classy event

  On time, super clean and careful. THE best catering I have ever had. My guests were wowed, and everyone was talking about how great everything tasted. I've had catering before where some things weren't good, but with Emelio's EVERYTHING was over the top excellent. The best service and food I ever had! Highly recommended.

  Emelios and Abigail are great!!!

  Emelios was a perfect caterer! They took care of everything and made sure my tables looked BEAUTIFUL!!! The food was amazing ( everyone raved over their vegetable lasagna. SO good!). Abigail is amazing to work with and made me feel so comfortable and confident about my reception. They really went above and beyond to make my night perfect!!!
  Bonus, at the end of the evening my venue owner said how wonderful Emelios staff was and how well they worked together.

  Fantastic Caterer!!!

  From start to finish, Emilio’s gave us the absolute best catering experience for my daughter’s wedding. They have a wealth of knowledge to offer guidance and suggestions. The food was delicious and the presentation was impeccable! Their staff are so kind and courteous from the coordinator to the servers. They were very attentive to our needs and made this a smooth non-stressful experience. I highly recommend them!

  Best food in Ohio!

  Good price, the staff was so kind and amazing. Our wedding guest raved about food and wanted to know if they had a restaurant to attend. Which they do. We worked with Carly and her staff and Carly. I will say was the best part of their service. She was so very accommodating helpful. With the spread that they put out for cocktail hour was more than I imagined and absolutely beautiful. Thank you.

  Hit it out of the Ballpark

  
  Emelios was superb from start to finish. Starting with sampling the menu and providing not only a taste of the quality of food but of their professionalism and care they took with making sure Both Bride and Groom felt at ease; they also provided communication throughout the process and the pleasantness and ease of that communication made this wedding experience top notch ( we’ve dealt with other “professionals” in this area and believe me when I say this can sour your wedding experience). They Were extremely attentive throughout the entire reception with precision and intuitiveness. Everything was delicious and guests were impressed with the food. The prime rib literally melts in your mouth and the shrimp so big you had to cut them with a knife! Lol.

  Annette and Abi were wonderful to work with throughout the whole process! The presentation day of was gorgeous, the food lines moved fluidly, and we barely noticed them working away diligently. They have a great team and they all work well together. Most importantly, our wedding guests raved about the food, especially the meatballs!

  I honestly cannot say enough great things about Emilio's Catering. Their food was amazing and the people we worked with there were so professional and flexible with what we needed. Even with some last minute changes, they were great. Would definitely recommend!

  We used Emelio's for my daughters wedding in October. I can't begin to say how over the top happy we are that we chose Annette and her team.

  We used Emelio's for my daughters wedding in October. I can't begin to say how over the top happy we are that we chose Annette and her team. She is super responsive, extremely easy to work with, competitively priced and the food selections were numerous and delicious. We scheduled a food tasting about 15 months before the wedding, and after meeting her and sampling the food, we immediately booked them and felt like the luckiest people in the world having Emelio's for this wedding. Little did we know how unbelievable Annette is to work with. The wedding was two weeks ago and we still can't believe how wonderful everything turned out. She also has multiple contacts and was so helpful sharing names and numbers of people with whom she has worked with. Thank you Annette for making everything look so beautiful and taste so delicious, you were the best to work with!
