Fantastic Experience!
Absolutely delicious food, professionally prepared and presented, with out-of-this-world customer service, especially from Esther, the Catering Sales Manager. My wife and I were thrilled with Morton's service and would recommend them to any other couple. -

Delicious!
Morton’s is a wonderful market and caterer. Esther Williams helped me choose and edit the amount of food as guest count changed. The appetizers for cocktail hour and the buffet for dinner hour were beautifully done and delicious. -

Amazing!!!
I am so happy we decided to choose Morton's to cater our wedding dinner. We had 25 guests, so I thought it might be considered too small. But Esther was so wonderful to work with, very helpful and responsive and just loves events! And the food!! We had several people say it was hands down the best meal they've ever had at a wedding. It was so delicious family was fighting to get leftovers! We definitely have no regrets, and you won't either! -

Magical Event!
Fabulous experience! Our larger planned wedding for our daughter was scaled back, due to covid, to an intimate family celebration at our home on December 30 with approximately 40 guests. Esther Williams, the Catering Manage, went above and beyond to help us recreate the magical event we envisioned. Her support and guidance with menu selections and vendor recommendations was seamless. The food was fantastic, the presentation just beautiful, and the wait staff just second to none. Thank you so much for everything Esther and crew!! -

Wedding Catering
Absolutely DELICIOUS food and great staff!
My daughters wedding was just 2 weeks ago! We are still raving about our entire experience with MORTON'S CATERING. Our guest are still commenting on the great event, we couldn't have been more pleased. From the start we were welcomed by Morton's Catering Sales Manager Esther. She listened to our plans and desires to achieve a Cuban American themed meal. We meet with Executive Chef Fernando who created a delightful meal, so many amazing choices and executed with perfection. Executive Pastry Chef Lauren designed the cake that was to die for! Tres Leches cake with Butter cream, WOW! With every meeting it just got better, and we were so relieved and excited that our once in a lifetime event was in the hands of true professionals. A big shout out to Morton's Staff that were on site for the wedding who went above and beyond to make my daughter wedding be THE BEST DAY EVER! They stayed on task with all the demands of a wedding, we all enjoyed there attentiveness and expertise in service and decorating! Our Venue looked like a blank slate upon my arrival. By the time our guest arrived for the outdoor ceremony, it was transformed into a fairy tale come true! My daughter and new son in law are forever grateful.
Thank you Morton's for a great job and team effort! You will always have my recommendation!
Sincerely,
Cheryl Pember

Bride and Mother of the Bride Approved
Morton's not only catered our incredible rehearsal dinner, but also our beautiful wedding. My husband and I used them to cater our rehearsal dinner and had the best cake EVER for the rehearsal dinner and our experience was very delightful and seamless. Everyone continues to talk about the delicious food and cakes from the rehearsal dinner and the wedding.
My mother worked very closely with the catering manager and this was what she had to say about her experience:
Have you ever dreamed of hosting the perfect party? Well the Catering division of Morton’s Gourmet Market made my dream a reality. They recently catered my daughter’s wedding and it was absolutely perfect right down to the last detail. The catering manager was very knowledgeable, full of ideas, solutions and made planning a breeze. The staff was very professional and pleasant. From our first meeting, to the awesome private food tasting to the actual event the entire process was completely stress free and wonderful. In addition to hosting a beautiful event, I was able to relax and enjoy the party because I knew I was in good hands with the Morton’s Catering team. If you desire the best party ever, look no further than Morton’s Gourmet Market. -

Great service and quality
Morton’s Market provided the catering for our Sarasota wedding in February. We planned the entire wedding from Europe and did not get to try the food we selected for our dinner menu and hors d’oeuvres, which made me a little nervous, but Morton’s exceeded our expectations! The quality of the food was outstanding and the staff was great! We received so many compliments on the food and service, but especially also the bartender.
Esther was our main contact and was phenomenal to work with. She went out of her way to make sure every detail was perfect. -

Y U M! Brides – look no further for a delicious, unique, and cost effective caterer!
I feel like as a wedding guest, food is usually the one thing I walk away from any wedding feeling ‘meh’ about. It’s never bad, but never spectacular – just meh. I know I’m bias, but this was NOT the case on our November 3rd wedding that was catered by Morton’s! I can’t even begin to count the amount of compliments and raving reviews we’ve received on how amazing the food at our wedding was. A lot of that comes down to Esther, the Catering Sales Manager at Morton’s. Being a destination bride, I did most of my planning remotely. Esther was so kind, flexible, and creative in helping me craft our wedding menu. We knew we wanted to do something a little unique, and very “Florida” themed for our destination beach wedding that all of our out of town guests would enjoy. Esther helped bring that vision to life by creating a menu that included an ahi tuna and oyster raw bar, passed Cuban flatbreads and pineapple chicken skewers, a made-to-order fish taco station, carved flank steak with chimichurri sauce, plantains, lots of fresh fruit and so so so much more. The quality of the food was outstanding, the presentation was beautiful (a few unofficial pictures attached), and the customer service of Esther and the whole staff was top notch. I highly recommend Morton’s to any brides in the Sarasota area, and especially to any destination brides who are looking for a local partner they can trust! -

We chose Morton's to cater our wedding in Bradenton, FL after they did such a great job at my sister's wedding. We were out of town while planning our wedding and Esther was so helpful and great to work with during this process. She is so organized and thinks of every little detail that we probably would have forgotten. The food that Morton's served was amazing and all of the guests raved about the quality of the food. The presentation and customer service was outstanding and very professional. I would choose them again in a heartbeat to cater another event.
Thank you so much Esther for all of your help!! -

My husband and I had the best experience with Morton's Market for our wedding. They catered everything, even our "getting ready" lunches. Esther was also our wedding coordinator. She was amazing to work with-- so helpful and available. All of our guests said we had some of the best wedding food! Everyone was impressed it turned out so well, despite the large amount of guests. All of the servers were so professional and friendly. The whole team made sure our day was perfect, and the food was fantastic!! -

Morton's Market was an incredible addition to my wedding in November. The food was spectacular and the service they provided was well worth the money. They provided servers, bartenders, and catering staff.
For dessert, we specifically asked for cannoli along with the cake and it was so delicious. From beginning to end, my family and friends loved the food. They also made sure to provide plates for us as the bride and groom so that we remembered to eat! Esther was awesome to work with and thought of everything. She even reimbursed us for plates when cancellations happened around two weeks out. I can't say enough good things about the quality of food, the patience and attentiveness of the service during the wedding, and how much I appreciated having the Morton's Market team at our wedding.
Thank you!!-

Omg, We tried other catering companies before we found Mortons, but as soon as we tried the food we looked at each other and we knew.
We are super picky with food, as we all know thats the one think everyone remembers from a wedding.
The food is absolutely amazing, but whats even better, is that Esther took notes of everything we said and thought about each thing we tried. (Too crunchy, too spicy, too many colors in the plate..)
She made a proposal specific for the taste of our guest and for what we were looking for. She paid attention to everything and it made it so easy for us.
I received a lot of compliments about the food on my wedding, And it made me really happy.
She had great communication with me and my wedding coordinator and was so quickly to respond to all my questions.
Thank you Mortons and Specially Esther for making it perfect for us! -

I strongly recommend working with Esther Williams and Morton’s Gourmet Market for your wedding. From the very start of my planning process Esther was phenomenal!
My very first conversation with Esther was over the phone and at this point I was just shopping around, looking for quotes from different caterers in the Sarasota area. I was very overwhelmed and did not have a clear idea what type of food I wanted. Esther was patient and kind; she gave me several options to consider and took the extra time to break down all the pricing for me. I was so impressed with her fast responses and professionalism that I knew I wanted Morton’s to cater the wedding before I had even tasted the food. Eventually we settled on a southern style menu and Esther took our idea and created a delicious menu for us that exceeded my expectations. Everything tasted great and it had just the perfect amount of style, fried green tomatoes and all.
After the tasting, we signed the contract and the real work began. I had to choose all the other things that go along with a wedding, the plates, napkins, chairs, and the list goes on and on. Esther was always helpful giving great recommendations and even finding ways to save me money wherever she could. Esther was so awesome I ended up making her my “day-of” coordinator. She had helped me find someone to do the makeup, our officiant, and the DJ Company; all of which were also fantastic. I trusted that she would make sure the day went smoothly and she didn’t disappoint!
On my wedding day I enjoyed my time with my friends and family, I did not stress about anything. I even ate most of my dinner! Sure some unexpected things happened but Esther made it work. She handled everything, she was amazing and to me the day was absolutely perfect. Everyone enjoyed the food, and had such a good time. Every detail turned out exactly how I imagined. Thank you Esther and all the catering staff at Morton’s Gourmet Market for making my wedding so memorable!

Morton's Catering was so amazing to work with! Throughout the whole Wedding Planning Process, I never once questioned my decision in choosing Morton's to cater my special day. Esther was so much fun to work with, and the staff did a fantastic plated dinner reception! My guests drooled over our menu and our cake! Not only was my Wedding Day a success, but the day after, my out-of-town family was able to enjoy a catered lunch. My parents, who hosted the brunch, were able to enjoy spending time with the family instead of keeping busy in the kitchen cooking for everyone. I highly recommend Morton's Catering to anyone who has an event needing to be catered! Thank you, Morton's, for everything!! -

I would recommend Morton's Gourmet Market to anyone & everyone!!! We were married on 11/12/16, but started planning a year and a half in advance. We met Esther Williams and just KNEW she was the perfect person to help plan our special day. She ensured everything we wanted was incorporated into the wedding! The food was amazing, and my guests loved it from the chicken, to the salmon, mashed potatoes, veggies & of course the cupcakes!!! Whenever I had a concern, question or need Esther was so responsive & knew exactly how to answer. She is top notch & we will be forever thankful to her for her services & for Morton's quality! Big shot out to the staff/servers at our wedding. They worked their tails off and were so kind through out it all! We could not have asked for a better team for our wedding!! Thank you Morton's & Esther Williams! <3, The Morgans 11/12/16 -

We couldn’t have been happier with the services provided by Morton’s Catering for our 10/08/16 wedding. We had Morton’s provide the appetizers for the cocktail hour, a buffet dinner, and the wedding cake.
For appetizers we got the vegetable platter, samosas, and chicken skewers. For the buffet dinner we had caesar salad, dinner rolls, garlic broccolini, lasagna, mushroom ravioli, and chicken alfredo. The food tasted great! We received numerous compliments from guests about how delicious the dinner was.
For the cake, we had a three tier cake and it looked and tasted absolutely wonderful. I sent Morton’s pictures of what we wanted the cake to look like and they really did a great job. It was three tier (10”, 8”, and 6”) with white roses and baby’s breath.
The service we received from Morton’s from day 1 has been great. Esther at Mortons was very prompt in responding to emails and phone calls. My husband and I changed the menu several times and she would send us another quote in no time. She was also very understanding when I called her three days before the wedding to ask her when was the absolute latest I could confirm the headcount due to the hurricane causing flight delays and cancelations. She told me that at 9am the day before the wedding they would start preparing the food and that she would need to know then. The fact that she was going to let me change the headcount the day before the wedding demonstrates how much Morton’s was willing to work with me to make sure everything worked out on my big day.
The service received on the day of the wedding was also just wonderful. The catering team did a great job setting all the tables and setting up the buffet table with the decorations and centerpieces I had provided them with. The catering team was also very well dressed and very professional. After the wedding they kindly boxed up all the leftovers food and cake.
I highly recommend Morton’s Catering for anyone’s wedding. Thank you thank you thank you! -

I was a destination bride who had never been to Sarasota and as soon as I stepped into the market, I knew this was where I wanted to cater from. The food is absolutely exquisite, fresh, beautiful, delicious - everything you want it to be! I absolutely loved working with Esther who was a pleasure to work with even though changing my mind a million times about the escort cards and having an open seating plan. If only I had more time to eat that night!!! -

Morton's did such a great job with catering our wedding!!! Esther was a huge help through out the planning process! We did stations and came to them with what we had in mind and they brought the perfect menu to life (Kansas City BBQ, Seafood, Gourmet Taco bar and a Southern station)! We had so many compliments on the food and everything was perfect! Thank you so much! -

Having chosen to do a destination wedding, I reviewed companies that catered to our reception location. After looking at all of our options, we chose to go with Morton's. My family lives in Florida, so my sister went out and tried the food. She's a fantastic cook, so I trusted her judgement, and I'm glad we did!!
Since we did a sunset ceremony and our reception wasn't starting until 8:30, we chose to do tapas, champagne, and cake. Morton's prepared and served all of the food. There was more than enough and everyone raved about how delicious it was (going back for seconds and thirds). When my son requested more of a passed (served) item, it was immediately brought out for him to enjoy.
Esther was responsible for helping me put together the menu. She was extremely professional and always made sure that I understood what we were getting (suggesting certain items to be served instead of buffet style). Whenever I had a question, she promptly responded, and I truly enjoyed my phone conversations with her.
At our reception, I was able to talk with Louise (she was one of the servers), and she also was amazing. When I needed assistance at the end of the night, she was the one who told me that she'd help me get it taken care of. I am extremely grateful for her kindness and assistance.
My husband didn't get to eat his Groom cheesecake (made by Morton's), so we took it back to our condo. He enjoyed it too!!
We are thrilled to have used Morton's and HIGHLY recommend them to anyone looking to book a caterer for their wedding!! -

We used Morton's to cater our wedding this past weekend. We worked with Patti and Felicia for catering and Jamie for our cake. I could not have asked for a better team! They were all so easy to work with. Our vision was not easy (we wanted a more free flowing party than a sit down wedding), but they totally got it and ran with it. Our guests raved about how creative our food stations were and how DELICIOUS the food was. Our wedding would not have been the same without Morton's!! Thank you! -

Ruth and her team at Morton's Gourmet Market exceeded all expectations! She created an exact replica of my dream wedding cake from the picture I provided. Morton's has, BY FAR, the most delicious cake in town... None of the other cakes we tasted even came close. We felt like royalty at the cake tasting AND, unbelievably, Morton's was the most affordable (It was an even better deal than Publix and WAY more professional and delicious). You will not be disappointed with Morton's cakes or customer service!
Thank you Ruth for your exceptional standards!!! -

Morton's handled our event so beautifully. We had a very unique, interesting menu and they were so excited to help us out with it. The value you get for the price is so amazing. When pricing out vendors, I was shocked to see that such an established, well-known catering company was the second cheapest out of all of the proposals I received back. It's obvious that Jay and Patty are more concerned with the bride and groom being happy than with money - Jay worked so hard to make sure our day was perfect and would not accept a tip for himself - he distributed it to his (awesome) waiting staff. Everyone loved our food, and I would highly recommend Morton's to anyone looking for a gourmet caterer on a budget. Don't think you have to stick to their menu, either, they are happy to do whatever you would like - they love doing things that are outside of the box and it really showed on our day. -

For my wedding, Morton's catered the rehearsal dinner and their bakery made my wedding cake. I can't really speak too much towards dealing with catering because my Mom was the one who corresponded with the catering department. But I can say that the food was amazing, and the service and bartender were professional and friendly! I would highly recommend them for your next catered event.
Regarding the cake, I emailed back and forth with Jami at the bakery department regarding cakes. She was exceptional and so patient. She sent me photos of cakes she has done and then I sent her photos of cakes I like and we went back and forth designing a custom cake for me! Not only was the cake exactly what I pictured, but it was extremely delicious, too! I would strongly recommend Morton's bakery and Jami for your wedding cake. Also the prices are incredibly competitive and reasonable. -

Not a great catering experience
I heard such great things about Morton's catering so we chose them to cater a surprise 60th birthday party but at the end of Oct, when my parents (who reside part time in Sarasota) tried to book a full service event for 50 pp for end of Feb, they said they didn't have anyone but we could pick up food. We had 1 appetizer, 3 entrees, 2 sides, 1 salad and a fruit platter. from them and I came from MA and had to bring linens & a whole suitcase of catering equip. Esther, the "catering specialist" was less than helpful and quite obstinate. So my 86 yr old father had to run around and p/u chafing dishes at a rental place and return a hotel pan to Mortons the morning after the event because we had to beg her to provide a real hotel pan of lasagna for the chafing dish (we transferred the other aluminum foil entrees into the rented hotel pans when Morton's arrived. but I knew we couldn't transfer a lasagna so literally had to plead w/ her to have chef make it in a real hotel pan. We had to toss the salad and all the ingredients which was supposed to be: field greens, strawberries, toasted almonds, goat cheese and RASPBERRY vin. 2 problems, they showed up w/ mandarin oranges and balsamic vin (which my 82 yr old mother had already made for a plain garden salad for our dairy and nut free guests) so we had 2 salads both w/ balsamic AND their reg salad has blue cheese and candied walnuts. My mom said no candied walnuts and asked for goat cheese instead of blue cheese. Esther charged them an additional $50 for a less expensive cheese substitute. I am a caterer and was a purchaser for 30 restaurants and know that goat cheese is not more than bleu cheese. The Chicken marsala was supposed to be 4 oz portions because of the other entrees. So Esther said they would cut them since they only did one size. Needless to say, they arrived whole (we had to cut before serving) and it was not tender and sauce was glutinous. They must have used corn starch, yuk. The lasagna was not cut., but was very tasty. We had to cut that as well. I always cut my lasagnas for a hot delivery instead of making the client have to deal w/ that, especially when the client is made to toss the salads and set up. I would also have my delivery person toss the salad for them and help set up the buffet for them. Especially knowing we wanted to hire full service catering, that is the least they could have done. The "haricot verts" w/ roasted red potatoes were not the thin french green beans I expected but regular large beans and the potatoes(everyone thought they were potato chips) they were dark brown "chips' tossed w/ the green beans but the beans did taste good. The artichoke and hearts of palm were as expected (from cans and tossed w/ what tasted like Italian dressing.) It just wasn't a pleasant experience to deal w/ setting up and having to transfer items to platters and bowls, tossing their salad, cutting their chicken and their lasagna. The lasagna was the best thing they delivered. Anyway, bad experience and we will never be using them again. Overpriced and the crabcakes..not good. they were dry and no lump crab was seen or tasted. I did contact Esther to let her know but she did not give a professional response. We chalked it up to overpriced poor service and mediocre food. The young man who delivered was very nice and polite and on time so I give props to that. -
