    Delicious!!

    Mel's Country Cafe catered two weddings in our family now, mine (8.22.21) and my daughter's (May 2019) and both times they did a wonderful job. I wanted food that tasted as if you were eating your grandma's or momma's best cooked meal and that is just what they delivered!! I had so many of my guest compliment on how great the food was!! There pricing is very reasonable, a great place to consider for you wedding our next event!!

    Best Wedding Dinner I’ve ever had!

    Mel’s has gone above and beyond our expectations for catering our wedding. It was homestyle food done elegant! We first had our tasting at the restaurant where we had multiple choices brought out to us. Everything was absolutely delicious, but we landed on the Chicken Fried Steak, Baked Chicken, Mashed Potatoes, green beans and macaroni and cheese!

    On our wedding day, everything was plated beautifully, stayed super warm and fresh and was so delicious! We received an innumerable amount of compliments of the food and were left fighting for the leftovers to take home at the end of the evening! Hats off to you Mel’s, the best choice we could have made for our wedding meal!

    Great Food for a Good Wedding

    OMG!!!!! The food was incredible! We went to the tastings, fell in love with the food and booked them immediately. Mel and his staff were great and very flexible as this pandemic rocked my plans. Our count went from 275 to a final count of 130 on the final count day. Since we had already paid for most of the catering we received a refund of the difference without us even asking. With all that is happening, right now we must be appreciative of vendors who not only do a great job but also deliver spectacular customer service.

    Wonderful!

    HIGHLY RECOMMENd!! I can’t say enough great things about Mel’s! This vendor was selected for us through an all-inclusive package with our venue and I couldn’t be more thankful! Jeff was awesome to work with- very responsive, personable and professional. He brought me and my husband and my mom in for a food tasting prior to the wedding and ALL of the food was fantastic. For our wedding, their staff was great. The food was delicious- we have received several compliments on the dinner! We are so thankful that we got the chance to work with Mel’s! We will definitely be going to eat there in the future!

    The best catering

    My guests were still raving about the food the next day!! The food is to die for and you can't beat the price. They were so great to work with and truly worked within your budget! I would recommend Mel's catering any day!!

    Great Food for a Great Price

    Mel's has such a variety of food to choose from, which made it easy to find exactly what we wanted! We were able to choose multiple dishes to schedule a tasting. Everything was delicious, but we found our favorite. The price was awesome, great value! When it came to our Big Day, everything was wonderful! I would highly recommend them to anyone, especially if you're on a budget.

    Amazing food

    I’ve grew up eating Mel’s and didn’t even know they had catering until I found them on my venues proffered list! I already knew the food was amazing so I was excited for them to cater our wedding! Jeff is awesome and he helped us so much, I changed my menu a few times cause I got indicisive so he was very patient with me. I would definitely recommend Mel’s, you will get so many compliments on the food!

    So delicious!

    I've eaten at Mel's for my whole life and never knew they provided catering for events. When someone recommended them for my wedding I was shocked, but was even more shocked when we went to the tasting. Their catering menu is slightly different and SO good! We booked right away...we didn't taste with anyone else! They absolutely nailed our wedding. The dinner service went so smoothly and it didn't take too long for everyone to get their food. The fajitas were out of this world! They even had to go boxes ready and packed up for the groom and I because they know how hard it is to snag time to eat at your own wedding. Thank you so much, Mel's!!

    Mel's was so good. We had a large wedding, and wanted something that could easily feed a lot of people. We got the chicken fried steak, and our guests are still ranting and raving over how good it was. I strongly recommend!

    I just had my wedding at TownHall Texas and Mel’s was one of the vendors included in the all inclusive package. Jeff was a pleasure to work with. The food was great and our ring bearer even finished three plates! Highly recommend!

    I grew up in Tomball, and if you have ever lived there or around the area, you know what Mel’s is. I was blown away to find out they catered weddings, I had no idea! We didn’t hesitate to book them. We had two entrees, country fried steak and chicken marsala with mash potatoes with gravy and greens beans. The food was great as always and everyone was excited for some Mel’s soul food! Mike took care of everything for booking and was quick with any communication.

    The food is delicious and we weren't disappointed on our wedding day! We went with a chicken fried steak and chicken meal that the guests loved! They also provided all of the desserts and there were no complaints there!

    You absolutely can't go wrong with Mel's. The food, service, and price are all excellent. They have served at a number of weddings and functions that I have attended and have never disappointed. An extremely versatile catering menu has so much to offer. Tammy always makes sure that the service and presentation are great. As a fellow vendor I always recommend them to by brides.

    I have been to several weddings that had Mel's as their caterer -- so I fought hard to get them for my daughter's wedding. I am so glad I was able to have them - the food was delicious and the servers did an awesome job! They are so flexible and work with you regarding your payments... I was so thankful for that! Jeff and Tammy were so great! I would highly recommend them!

    We had Mel's Country Café cater for the wedding and we could not of been happier with the southern home cooked food Jeff cooked. The tasting session was a perfect opportunity to taste the entrée for our wedding day. Our guests and I were very happy with the food with some venturing back for second helpings!

    Best food ever!! We eat there all the time so it really wasn't a huge decision on catering. We did look around a bit and ended up back at Mel's. I didn't have a lot of time to devote to the planning but Tammy was on point. The food was great, the service was great, and everyone loved the non-traditional. We had chicken fried steak (or chicken), green beans, mashed potatoes, mac & cheese (for the kids) and salad for 200 people. Later in the evening my dad went to give them a tip and they had cleaned up and gone. It was like they had never been there in the first place. If you want GOOD food and GREAT service you can't go wrong, call chef Jeff!

    The food was absolutely fantastic. We had the stuffed chicked and country green beans. The guests at our wedding told us how great it was for weeks. They arrived early and served our food for us. It was perfect. We even had o make some last minute changs to our guest count, you know those last minute guests just decide to come :)... they added on the xetra people ithouta problem.

    We used Mel's catering for our wedding. I was a little apprehensive at first since it isn't your typical wedding catering but I was so wrong. The food is absolutely amazing which is all that matters. We served cajun chicken, brisket, etouffee, loaded mashed potatoes and green beans. Everyone raved about how good the food was-which isn't common at weddings. We had some guests who were vegan so Mel's did some vegan plates that our guests loved. I have no complaints and would definitely recommend them to anyone!

    We did fajitas at my wedding. They threw in chips and salsa at no extra cost. They provided plenty of staff to help serve us. They were very responsive and were flexible when we changed the number of guests a few times at last minute. Great company to work with!
