    Our guests are still raving about Lynn's food and amazing staff!

    Lynn and her staff were absolutely AMAZING from start to finish for our wedding. If I could give them a million stars I would!! First - the food was excellent! Our guests raved about the food and are still talking about Lynn's food! From Hors d'oeuvres, grazing table, dinner and dessert Lynn and her team made everything perfect for us!

    Also - Lynn is one of the sweetest and kindest souls we've ever met! She did more than work with us in our budget since we had to relocate our wedding last minute do to the Hurricanes all while she was donating food to hurricane victims on the side! She was super responsive and SO easy to work with. We will definitely be looking to hire Lynn again for any catering orders we may have. I could write a book about how much we and our guests LOVED Lynn's catering and her staff and our crowd can be hard to please! In our opinion Lynn's Catering is the BEST catering in Tampa/St. Pete area! Food was top notch and better than restaurants in the area. 1000000/10! THANK YOU from the bottom of our hearts Lynn and Team!

    Lynn’s Catering knows how to do a wedding.

    We had the pleasure of having Lynn’s Catering at our wedding last week and they were excellent. The teamwork between the staff to make sure everything was set up properly and everyone was happy with their meals was super impressive. We had many compliments on our full-service buffet style dinner along with the passed appetizers during cocktail hour, and they were even able to accommodate my MOH who had food restrictions. She said her dinner was tasty, too! During the planning process, Lynn was difficult to get ahold of at some points but after seeing what goes into a night catered by her and her staff, I empathize with how busy she must be! Everyone was very friendly and always made sure we had a drink in our hands or that we were fed while being pulled in all directions.

    If you are looking for catering for any event look no further!

    We hired Lynn and her team for our wedding on 12/4/22 and I cannot say enough good things about them!! From the start Lynn was amazing, she accommodated all of our last minute changes and she made suggestions for the food based off of what we where looking for. The day of staff was WONDERFUL, they are hands on and went above and beyond to make our day a memorable one. Everyone at the wedding raved about the food and how great it was. I highly HIGHLY recommend Lynn's Catering for all your needs! :)

    10 STARS Phenomenal

    My wedding was May 2019 and Working with Lynn was absolutely wonderful. The food and service was amazing and I only received lots of overwhelming compliments on the food. Her company is great because you can give her your budget and she works within that to make you the perfect menu. There is no set menu, so you can tailor your food with any specifications and flavors. We tried affordable catering and catering by the family buys Lynn’s food was by far our favorite.

    Beyond perfect!!!

    We want to personally thank you for everything! Our guests all agreed that the food was beyond amazing and could not stop talking about it. Thank you for saving us some of the hor d'oeuvres upstairs. We did not get a chance to have any of the caramel heaven:( We will have to see about ordering some of this from you!! The personal attention to detail and communication that you gave to our wedding was phenomenal. You truly helped me believe that everything was going to be perfect and came thru flawlessly. I not only considered you a vendor, but you truly became a friend as well.

    Amazing experience

    Lynn catered both my bridal shower and our wedding, and both were absolutely exceptional. Lynn worked with us to create an elegant and unique menu that would work well for our venue, and the food was beyond amazing!! All of our guests commented about how excellent the food was, and the presentation, service, and staff were all amazing, as well. Lynn was incredible throughout the entire process: creative, kind, professional, and just all around wonderful. We could not have asked for anything better. Thank you, Lynn’s Catering!! 💗

    Best Experience, Made my wedding run so smooth

    Lynn and her team made my wedding day everything I ever dreamed it could be. The food was amazing, delivered just as we expected. The staff were professional and efficient. Even the process of picking food, tables, etc. was easy. I expected this part to be stressful, and Lynn made sure I never had to worry. (Side Note: The dessert was so good, it beat out the cake on taste)

    Lynn’s Catering is AMAZING!

    We are so grateful to Lynn and her team for working so hard to make our day special. From beginning to end, it was such a pleasure to work with them and we appreciate all they did to make our wedding day perfect.

    We had a lovely tasting many months before our special day and met with Lynn to review all of the options. She was so eager to help us figure out what would work for our affair and we appreciated the time she spent with us early on to ensure we understood the plethora of options to choose from.

    Lynn puts so much effort and love into making sure the food and service she and her team provides is top notch and exactly what you asked for - the results were evident with our wedding. The food was delicious and delivered on time - our guests gave rave reviews about all of the food, both in the cocktail reception and in the seated reception. One guest in particular from Atlanta said they go to events and affairs all the time and the food is usually so boring - ours was just so good, she said - what a pleasant surprise. Of course we knew it was going to be great all along. :)

    Lynn went over and above - she called, emailed and checked in and asked our opinion on things and even called us the week of our wedding to ask us if we might want her to acquire a special heart-shaped challah one of the local synagogues was making on Valentine’s Day to use on our special day.

    Lynn worked with us to provide special cocktails and helped us figure out what items we would need for the bar. She also worked hard to try to save us money on supplies and rentals! She just goes over and above in everything she does and is such a pleasure to work with.

    Thank you to Lynn and her friendly staff for being with us every step of the way and for working so hard to make sure every detail was taken care of to make our special day even more special, beautiful and meaningful. AMAZING JOB!!!

    Post Wedding Luncheon Celebration

    Lynn has been my “go to Caterer” for many years. She has catered a wedding, rehearsal dinner and post wedding party for me and my family. Yesterday’s luncheon, in honor of the bride and groom after returning from their honeymoon in Italy, was exceptional as always! From the delicious Italian theme menu and food presentation to Lynn’s planning and overseeing of every detail, the guests were raving about the food and service! The staff members were attentive, professional and very pleasant! I left everything in their capable hands and had the entire time to enjoy visiting with the guests and celebrating with my son and daughter in law. Lynn is delightful to work with and she is extremely flexible when it comes to designing a menu to fit your needs, theme and budget. Thank you, Lynn, for all you did to make our Post Wedding Celebration so memorable! I look forward to our next event together!

    Lynn’s Catering is Fabulous

    Lynn’s quality of food and service is extraordinary. From the appetizers to dinner to dessert, all the food was on point and enjoyed by all the guests. She worked with us to fine tune the menu so it met our desires to the last detail I would highly recommend Lynn’s to anyone. I will use her again if I have the opportunity.

    Wonderful dinner

    We met Lynn through our wedding planner. She was so easy going and helped my husband and I come up with the perfect wedding dinner menu when I was being super indecisive! She provided so many recommendations for us!
    Her food was amazing! Our cocktail hour appetizers are still being talked about along with our meal selection. We did a yummy chicken Parmesan with a pasta bar and roasted veggies. Her private tasting was simply perfect and made our decision easy !

    Best Catering company ever

    We would give Lynn and her staff 10 stars if we could. To begin with, almost everyone at the wedding said it was the best wedding food they had ever had. Starting with the cocktail hour our guests feasted on crab cakes, mini cubans and chicken and waffles which were all superb.
    The main course was equally delicious and the staff was on top of every thing service wise the entire evening. Her attention to our needs was non stop and all the staff were attentive and very pleasant.
    Lynn also supplied the bar staff who were not only excellent bartenders but were funny and engaging with the guests all night. Everyone loved them!
    Immediately upon arrival, Lynn brought a calm presence to the pre-wedding buzz of activity and left no doubt we were in good hands.
    We can not thank her enough for being a major part of what was a beautiful wedding event.
    We would recommend Lynn's Catering for any event needing great food and great service. Thank you Lynn and staff.

    Fabulous Experience!

    Lynn's Catered did my daughters wedding last weekend. There are not enough words to describe how wonderful the food and service were. From the planning, tasting, food quality, service, and presentation. All perfect. I would give Lynn 10 stars, if that was an option.
    Our 100 plus guests were telling me at the event how wonderful the food and service was, and since the event i have received many texts and emails from our guests stating the same. Many said it was the best food they have ever had at a wedding.
    My daughter and I checked out a lot of caterers, but Lynn's easily came out on top.
    Next time i am in need of catering services, I will go straight to Lynn's. She and her staff are the best.
    A big THANK YOU to Lynn and her staff!

    Deserves 100x the recommendation

    Lynn was nothing short of amazing!! From our very first tasting to the actual wedding food she was so so amazing in the quality of her food, her presentation of the food, and just by simply being so kind!! I am so thankful to have worked with Lynn and that she did not stress over little things! She gave me great prices on so many of her food items and she even helped me beyond the food. Her set up during our cocktail hour (stationary charcuterie) was so beautiful and I would recommend her 100x for not only weddings but ANY occasion where food is needed.
