    Absolutely amazing!!!!

    We got married August 2 of this year and booked this caterer last year so we had a lot of time to plan and coordinate. Meryl was absolutely AMAZING. She is knowledgeable, professional, and just an overall kind genuine person. She gave us really good advice and knew her stuff! To be honest, me and my mom felt like a deer in head lights and we don’t know what we would have done without her. She also recommended an amazing wedding planner for us. We had 250 guests and I am still getting compliments on how great the food was. I am Vietnamese so I was worried the food would disappointed my family because it wasn’t our traditional food and they were loving it!!!! They couldn’t stop talking about it! Very pleased with the staff and how much they helped make the wedding run smoothly. Thanks again!!!

    Excellent wedding vendor!

    We thoroughly enjoyed having Mama Stortini's cater our wedding! The food was delicious and all of our guests thought so too! We got so many compliments on the food. There were several sauce and meat toppings the guests could choose from which is nice. They bring a menu to be placed on the table for the guests to see. The caterers were all very nice and showed/cleaned up in a timely manner. They made sure they were on the same page with what our needs were before the wedding and plans were reviewed so that the day of I barely noticed they were there. I did not speak with anyone which was nice. I did not have to answer any questions while they were there, they just knew. We did not have a cake to be cut, but had cupcakes to be served and placed out when it was time, and they did that no problem. They provided aluminum tins for us to take leftovers home (which was nice because family got to enjoy the food the next day also). I think my favorite sauce is the alfredo, and I am very particular about my alfredo. It has a rich, creamy flavor. Also pretty affordable! They offer other services like linens, bartending, and dinnerware, but we did not choose that route. Thanks so much Mama Stortini's! We will be coming back when we are in the area :)

    Great food and service at a great value

    Mama Stortini’s made catering easy. The food and service were a great value. We received many compliments about the taste of the food. They seemed very attentive and provided free cake cutting service. They made special arrangements for the groom and a couple of guests who had dietary restrictions. We were able to rent cloth napkins and china through them at a lower cost, which helped us easily cross one more thing off our to-do list.

    The Best Wedding Meal Ever

    Mama Stortini's really hit it out of the park. We chose the tuscan chicken meal plan with 3 different kinds of sauces and I'm so glad we did! We were going to go with a more traditional steak & potato choice, but this option blew us away at the tasting. I worked with Meryl and Jade, who were SO incredibly responsive it made everything so easy. They worked to help us get everything we wanted while staying in-budget. The food was the most delicious food I've had at a wedding (yes, I'm bias!) and our guests keep raving over the Tuscan Chicken. they even sent us home with the leftovers and we've been eating off it for most of the week. We would absolutely recommend them to everyone!

    I mean what do you expect?!

    We choose Mama Storinis for their amazing food! What we got was so much more then we bargained for!

    The food was amazing as to be expected, and our guest complimented it all night long!

    In addition to the food Jade and her team also help you pick out all the linens and they set up all the tables! The team also served as our bar tenders and they cleared dishes! They were amazing!

    With Mama Stortinis you don’t have to worry about a thing! They’ve got you covered!

    Great food and service

    Working with Meryl was seamless, the food was perfect, the service at the wedding was awesome! The employees were helpful, upbeat, friendly. We had many compliments and as an added bonus, the price was perfect! They do all the setup, supply everything, bartend, cake cut, we had nothing to worry about on our special day! Highly recommend!

    Meryl is super accomodating and even allowed us to put less than 50% down for our catering. Mama Stortinis really is giving us a great value. We will end up spending about 1500 for an appetizer, 2 main dishes, bread side, and fruit for all of our 85 guests to enjoy.

    Mama Stortini's catered my wedding and I couldn't have been happier. Meryl and Jade were an absolute pleasure to work with from beginning to end. My every need and detail was met far beyond my expectations. The personalized attention I received couldn't be matched. Our guests raved about the food and service. I would highly recommend Mama Stortini's for any wedding or event.

    Mama Stortinis catered our wedding in October 2017. We had the most incredible service during our planning stages and day of. Jade is literally amazing and was available to answer every little question myself or my mom had. She went above and beyond to make sure the day ran smooth and there weren't any hiccups along the way. The day of our wedding was raining and might i add we had 300 guests- so they had a lot of stuff to bring in and organize! The whole Mama Stortinis team did this all with a smile on their face. They were on time, professional and the food was phenomenal! Our guests are still raving about the food! They also boxed up all of our leftovers for us which we were able to enjoy with family and our bridal party the next day. Mama Stortinis is who I would recommend over and over to any bride getting married in the future!

    My husband and I really enjoyed working with Mama Stortinis on our wedding food. We worked with Meryl and she was really good at responding and getting our pricing questions answered so that we could make the best decisions. The main reason why we went with this catering company is because it’s a preferred caterer with our venue.

    All of our guests seemed to really enjoy the food and we heard from so many people that it was delicious!

    As a bride, I was constantly balancing ways to save money and having the stress off of my shoulders. A few things that we did that helped with our catering budget was we purchased our own table linens. I’ll be completely honest – it’s actually cheaper to buy all of your linens and throw them away then it is to rent them. We decided to purchase crinkled tablecloths so we wouldn’t have to press them and they looked really lovely. We also purchased our own sparkling cider for toasts (we had a dry wedding) this saved us so much money because the cost to have the catering company provide this was $2.00/person while I got every bottle of cider for around that price.

    The only frustration that I had was in regards to drinks. We paid to have Mama Stortinis provide water/lemonade/coffee during our event but we were told a few days before that we should bring bottled water. I was under the impression that we shouldn’t have to deal with any drinks other than the cider but I guess they only have a certain amount per guest that they will supply for so if you are getting married on a really hot day, expect to get told to bring bottled water.

    Other than that we had a lovely experience with this caterer and we would totally use them again!

    Mama Stortini's was responsible for catering and drink service at our wedding. With this, they coordinated and provided linens, place settings (china/silverware/napkin rings), appetizers, dinner buffet, and full bar service (purchasing and serving the drinks). They had a well organized process for managing all of these different aspects and were flexible on making changes throughout the as our plans changed. They were flexible on our requested arrival time, arriving earlier than they initially planned, with an adequate amount of staff. They diligent throughout the night on refreshing the buffet and clearing tables. They even had some special touches we weren't expecting including helping set up the dessert table (provided by a different vendor), bringing a custom wood sign with our initials and wedding date for the bar, and using Chafers that perfectly matched our theme. Overall, we and our guests were very satisfied with the service and food and would be happy to recommend them for a similar event.

    Mama Stortinis catered our wedding and it was absolutely fabulous. Not only was communication during the planning process was easy, but their food and the staff's customer service was just top notch. Although I was the bride, many of our guests raved about the staff's genuine service. They also made accommodations for our gluten-free guests with no additional charge. I would highly recommend their services!

    Mama Stortini's is by far the best catering we've had at a wedding! I worked directly with Jade in their catering department and she was so friendly and easy to work with! She helped us create the perfect dinner menue and bar selection. We lived out of town and she was easily accessed via email! The staff present for our wedding day was very professional and very helpful with dinner and dessert time! As the bride and groom they served our drinks and dinner for us while everyone started to get in line. We were very pleased with Mama stortinis and enjoyed our left overs that they packed up for us! Thank you!

    Book Mama Stortinis Catering NOW!!! We had such incredible service from their entire team! They answered all of our questions in the planning stage, and were absolutely incredible on our wedding day. They were on time, professional, and worked their butts off! It was so wonderful to book their catering services, and to also rent plates/flatware/glasses and linens from them! It was super easy as they brought it to the venue and cleaned-up and took it all away after our event! Meryl, their Catering Director was so fantastic to work with! You won't regret selecting them as your caterer! :)

    We had Mama Stortini's cater our wedding and couldn't have been happier with our experience. We met with Meryl early in the process and we just clicked. Our tasting was amazing, better than any other tasting we went to when choosing a caterer. We would have chosen Mama Stortini's just based on that, but on top of that they were very budget friendly, which is something we really appreciated. Throughout the whole process Meryl was great at answering all my questions and making whatever changes we wanted. She was patient when I couldn't make up my mind, and also offered advice in areas we weren't certain about. She wasn't technically working our wedding but still managed to stop by and wish us well on our wedding day. Such a great experience....oh and the food was delicious! We had a lot of people patiently waiting for all the guests to go through the buffet so they could back for seconds! Overall we loved working with Mama Stortini's.

    I had an awesome experience with them for catering. They met my every need and took my calls and meetings whenever I had a question. I got so many compliments on the food and they did all the linens and clean up. I really enjoyed working with them and think they had an A+ plus service. I went through the puyallup, WA catering office.

    We have been going to this restaurant for a long time and love their food, so it made total sense for us to use them as our caterer. They did not disappoint! They worked with us to create the menu and service we wanted for the wedding. I was worried we would run out of food, as we have been to weddings before where this has happened and guests are starving. They did a great job of not underestimating the amount of food that would be eaten and their service was excellent. The food tasted just as good as the restaurant and we still have people tell us how great the dinner was. We had a great experience with Mama Stortini's and plan on going to the restaurant every year for our anniversary.

    As the mother of the bride & wedding planner. Our experience was outstanding. I was able to enjoy the reception without having to micromanage, a few things were verified and that was it. Food was just like at the tasting. Just Perfect!
