  Above and Beyond

  I was very impressed with Mintahoe and highly recommend them! Erin did such an amazing job doubling as our Day of Coordinator for our wedding on August 15th at Leopold's Mississippi Gardens - it turned out even better than I imagined! She is very organized and detail-oriented, which made it super easy/stress-free to plan a wedding while out of state (even during COVID). She was so responsive and flexible during the pandemic - she kept us updated on the changing requirements and the corresponding adjustments they were making to allow us to celebrate safely. The food was amazing and the staff was so friendly - our guests commented on how impressed they were. Erin went above and beyond to ensure our day went perfectly - she always set up time for us to come on-site and talk through things/see things in person whenever we were in town visiting. She even set up a private tasting for us at Leopold's to try out a few dessert options we were debating between. We couldn't have pulled off our wedding without her - she took care of all the little details and kept everything moving smoothly, all while maintaining a positive/energetic attitude that was contagious. Couldn't be happier with our day!

  Overall good experience for having to use a company exclusively contracted by our venue.

  I will start my review by saying I had to choose Mintahoe because they are contracted by the venue I chose - the Van Dusen Mansion.
  
  Morgan was absolutely wonderful to work with, nothing but great things to say about her - very responsive, friendly, understanding, accommodating.
  
  We had to have the champagne and beer ordered ahead of time for the bridal suite and club room while getting ready - you can’t bring any of your own alcohol at any time during the day (this wasn’t an issue, however it’s just more expensive to have to buy theirs).
  
  I was happy with the food, I didn’t receive any complaints from my guests about this. The sea bass was the meal I ordered and it they cooked this perfectly (very easy to overdo this dish).
  The wine during dinner could’ve been better, however I do enjoy more expensive wines so I wasn’t expecting top tier wines to be served anyway.
  I can’t comment on the bartending portion of their service myself because I was too busy (I’m the bride) during the day and I barely had anything to drink and never visited the bar.
  Several of guests reported a few things about the bar tenders for the evening that they thought was worth mentioning to me after the wedding, however I did not experience it myself so I can’t comment on that.
  Unsure if the late night pizza was good or not - I didn’t get to try it, but we had that option for our guests.
  The desert table looked great! I also was clearly too busy to try this, but the venue attendants were nice enough to pack up the extra deserts and send that home with me at the end of the night! (I had the tres leches tulip cups for breakfast the following morning and they were delightful!)
  
  They are an expensive company, they had price changes which is understandable, but were accommodating for the extra things I wanted (signatures drinks, imported Ting, outsourced cake, champagne wall). Budget wasn’t an issue for us, but had it been, I may have had to chose another company/venue.
  
  We had 4 entrees, 4 butler passed hors d’oeuvres, table side wine pours during dinner service, 2 signature drinks & imported NA soda, 3 desert options, late night pizza, a champagne wall, and we selected the complete premium bar package. I would say all of went smoothly from what I heard - I just wish I would’ve had time/been able to experience/try all the things we paid for! The chef/team made sure we had a plate of hors d’oeuvres at our sweetheart table for dinner so we could try them, which I was pleasantly surprised by when I sat down!
  The signature drink of mine (espresso martini) apparently was a huge hit - I wish I would’ve ordered more to start (I had no idea 50 of them would be finished during the cocktail hour alone!).
  
  Overall a great experience for a company that I didn’t have an option to choose from due to a venue I signed a contract with.

  They handled a several thousand dollar award reception at MNHC and were AMAZING.

  I hate to say that they were “ghosts” but they were and amazingly so. Food and drink appeared, board of regents members were delighted and everything was seamless. They are great.

  Highly professional and easy to work with!

  The Mintahoe team was very professional, responsive, and well-organized throughout the entire process. They helped make the planning much easier because they were so well-organized and clearly communicated everything (including expectations, timelines, payments, etc.). The food was also fantastic; they offer a large variety of selections (and delicious vegan and vegetarian options, which is often hard to find), and work hard to customize to dietary preferences and restrictions. We received numerous compliments about the food on our wedding day!

  I am so thankful we went with Minetahoe!

  Throughout the planning process of our wedding, Morgan and Carrie were incredible. They were so patient with our indecisiveness and helped inform us of all of our options. Carrie knew the ins/outs of our wedding down to decor and timing which was so helpful. We met and talked frequently going back and forth about details. I felt so great going into the wedding day knowing every detail was covered. They are very accommodating with guests dietary restrictions - way more than I guessed or expected out of them! The staff were so friendly the day of and the food was AMAZING! We had tableside service which I could not recommend more. The staff were professional and accommodating. I am so glad we had Mintahoe Catering for our wedding - I couldn't have imagined it any other way.

  100% worth the money!

  We had to use Mintahoe for our catering with our wedding at A’bulae and we are so glad! We worked with Carrie throughout the whole planning process and she was EXTREMELY accommodating and did everything she could to make our dreams come true. She made sure everything was complete and we were ready to go for our day. We really felt ready and besides normal nerves, we weren’t worried about anything! The food was great and the staff was so amazing the day of the wedding! Our day went perfectly and can’t thank Mintahoe enough!!

  Great service

  Mintahoe is very organized and easy to work with. They reach out to you when it's time to complete each step like tastings and setting menus and payments are very easy and on a schedule so you don't have to pay for everything up front. They have lots of options and are very thorough. One big thing we were concerned with was that we had a lot of guests with allergies and dietary restrictions and we wanted everyone to be included. Mintahoe made us feel confident that all of our guests would be taken care of and given multiple options. They also accommodated a last minute change to the table settings (like the day night before the wedding last minute) which just highlights their top tier service.

  Professional, flexible, and customizes their wedding to fit you and your special day.

  Working with Sydney at Mintahoe was a pleasure! They made sure my wedding went smoothly even when it was interrupted by COVID. My wedding date was scheduled a few days after the mandate when all businesses were closed; however, Mintahoe kept our contract and plans in place for the following year. Sydney was very helpful in ensuring I got what I wanted. We had a value pack for our wedding which was very helpful. Our venue was in Oakdale and it was huge and beautiful. The entire menu and cake was deliciously made by Mintahoe's own chef. All my guests loved the cake and all the food was definitely finished by the end of the event. I definitely would recommend Sydney to anyone having their event at Inwood Oaks.

  Absolutely wonderful Elsie was amazing!

  Planning a wedding during a pandemic was not an easy task and Elsie at Mintahoe was absolutely wonderful. She met with us regularly was super flexible, knowledgeable and helpful. She was like a family friend she really seemed to understand our vision and what we wanted for our special wedding day. She was so approachable and nice to work with and did whatever she could to help make us happy! The only issue we had the day of was our bartender was a bit crabby a few people mentioned it after the fact.

  Great Wedding Vendor

  Mintahoe was a great caterer for my wedding. The sales person we had (Emily) walked us through every aspect of our wedding and helped us write up a very detailed timeline for our event. We were able to share this timeline directly with our other vendors so everyone was on the same page! Also, Emily was able to clearly explain our meal and drink options and my wife and I were able to pick the best options for us and our guest.

  Absolutely wonderful service and food. Planning a wedding during the height of Covid has been awful, but they helped us get through everything. The food was great and the tasting was great. Awesome staff and planning committee.

  Helpful, Flexible and Delicious

  Sydney and the Mintahoe team were so great to work with! The tasting was a great opportunity to see and taste a variety of appetizers, entrees and desserts. As we were planning as the state slowly re-opened from coronavirus, Mintahoe was flexible with deadlines on guest count, plate choices and floor plan rearrangements. Highly recommended!

  My husband and I definitely recommend, Mintahoe Catering & Events! Our coordinator Erin was amazing to work with! She was extremely responsive from start to finish and made us feel completely at ease on our big day. Every staff member was exceptional! We even had some of our wedding guest compliment on the great service.

  Highly Recommend!!

  We had our wedding at Nicollet Island Pavillion and it was a total blast. Gabriella and Emily (Mintahoe staff) are incredible to work with. They are super helpful, flexible, and just lovely people. The venue was beautiful, food was good, and it's right on the Mississippi river with a view of downtown. I highly recommend this venue!

  Mintahoe Catering

  Mintahoe was great to work with. At first only having them as an option I was concerned but they were amazing. The food turned out great and was better than I expected. My only complaint is that the bartenders were not very friendly to our guests or us when it came to getting drinks during the evening. They were not very understanding on the open bar. Other than that, everything went great and Denise was amazing to work with and made sure everything I wanted happened!

  Catering at Leopolds

  Everyone has had the classic wedding dish, and most have forgotten about it after but Mintahoe will make sure that your wedding isn't like the rest. We had Mintahoe at Leopold's Mississippi Garden and Erin and her team crushed it. Erin was incredible, she worked tirelessly to make sure everything was perfect. She went beyond just handling the food and we really couldn't have asked for a better partner to coordinate with. Mintahoe is a large caterer but when talking to Erin she make it personal and even worked on getting us a small cake for us to cut. I would recommend Mintahoe to any couple but it is a must if you were to get to work with Erin Hedges and her team at Leopolds Mississippi Gardens.

  Gabriella was awesome at NIP

  I had the opportunity of coordinating a client's wedding at the Nicollet Island Pavillion and I must confess that I worked with the best site coordinator. GABRIELLA PANEBIANCO was amazing to work with. She went over and beyond to make the event a success. The food was delicious and the ambience was great. I would definitely recommend Mintahoe to my clients especially NIP and Gabriella. Thanks for an awesome time.

  Great staff, great venue

  Nicollet Island Pavilion was an incredible venue and if we had to do it over we would get married there again in a heartbeat. We looked at ~20 venues around the city and couldn’t find anything that could compare in terms of size, city view, on the water, etc…The price was competitive with all other similar sized downtown venues.
  
  Gabriella Panebianco took over as the main point of contact for us a few months from our wedding. She quickly brought herself up to speed and was incredibly professional and patient throughout the process. We had several last minute changes/questions the week of the wedding and she was completely accessible and handled all inquiries promptly.
  We did not hire a day of coordinator, nor did we need to. Gabriella was present on wedding day through dinner and provided a calming presence and made sure everything flowed correctly.
  The entire staff on site was incredibly kind to us and our guests. In particular, Steve the bartender went out of his way to take care of both of our parents all night.
  
  Bottom line, awesome place to get married and awesome people to work with.

  Mintahoe made our wedding better than we could have hoped for!

  Mintahoe and Mississippi Gardens made our wedding day PEEFECT, and most importantly stress-free!! All details were taken care of well in advance, staff was personable and exceeded our requests, and the guests raved about the food and the whole experience. I would recommend Mintahoe and Mississippi Gardens 10 times out of 10!!!

  Extraordinary Experience

  Where do I begin?!?! Working with the team at Mintahoe was a dream. My husband and I live out of state (he is from the Twin Cities area) and I had no idea how to begin our wedding planning. Upon my initial consultation, Tracy and her team made me feel at ease. I loved how everything was on-site at the Nicollet Island Pavilion. I knew the venue was gorgeous, but seeing it in person was everything I could hope for. Gabriella joined my planning team two months before our wedding and we were in constant contact the entire time (again, we were out of state!). Even with a minor last minute hiccup (on my part), Gabriella was there to support me and find a solution. I cannot overstate how integral she was to ensure everything ran smoothly. Our wedding was magical, the food was phenomenal, and our guests continue to rave about it today! Thank you, Gabriella, Emily, Tracy, and Mintahoe for providing us and our guests an extraordinary evening!

  Best Decision

  Mintahoe’s tasting was a ton of fun and the food was great! It’s tough making large quantities of food without the meat being dry, veggies soggy and everything still hot! Mintahoe catering did a wonderful job in making sure all three of these things did not happen.
  I can’t imagine being married anywhere other than Leopold’s. The staff made me feel as if I had my own personal wedding planner. The space is romantic, whimsical, and perfectly designed for such a special and important event in your life. I burst into tears at our first visit to tour the location and am actually tearing up writing this review. I am so happy we chose this beautiful establishment to become husband and wife.

  Surpassed expectations!

  We hired Mintahoe to cater our wedding at A’bulae on February 17, 2019. Beginning with the planning meeting with Denise and all the subsequent emails and phone calls to get questions answered, we were very happy with the service! They have everything covered from snacks throughout the day in the bridal suite while we were getting ready to food for our vendors throughout the evening, and then of course all the details for the wedding, including little things that you just wouldn’t think of. And the food was EXCEPTIONAL! We were so busy we decided to opt out of the food tasting, make our selections from the menus provided and just hope for the best. The food surpassed our expectations. We loved our meals and heard from everyone that the food was delicious. The staff was also very attentive and friendly!
  
  We highly recommend Mintahoe for any event you plan to have catered! Thank you Mintahoe for helping to make our wedding so memorable!

  Great communication and easy to work with

  Tracy McCarthy was so good to work with! Communication was excellent. All items that needed discussion, clarification, or changes were done with ease. Tracy provided all wedding organizing we needed during the event. The event staff were warm and welcoming to all or guest, including treating the children like little adults. They were thrilled.
