Casey Sent on 01/22/2025Amazing Experience!
We had the pleasure of working with Putting on the Ritz for our wedding, and they were absolutely amazing! From start to finish, their communication was outstanding. Not only did they answer all of our questions with great detail, but they also coordinated seamlessly with our other vendors to ensure everything came together without a hitch. The tasting experience was fantastic, and they really took our feedback and preferences to heart. During our final meeting, they helped us review all the details and even assisted with planning a preliminary timeline for the day, making sure every detail was covered.
The team at Putting on the Ritz truly made our wedding day special. We wanted something a bit different,...Putting on the Ritz ,Catering's reply:

The food was great and they made the day of run very smoothly. Sometimes the response time was pretty slow and kind of difficult to communicate via email though. -

We are both vegetarian and wanted to have a vegetarian wedding that was exciting and delicious -- Putting on the Ritz delivered. They helped us develop a creative menu that included passed apps, stations, and a plated meal. They also provided the linens, desserts, and full bar, making it an easy one-stop-shop for our catering needs. We also felt that compared to many other caterers in the DMV, they had great value for the price.
The tasting was super helpful because we were able to make some modifications and finalize the linens in person (not to mention get us excited because everything was delicious). They had worked with our venue before, which made the entire experience seamless. We... -

Brianna Sent on 12/23/2024Great Option for A Catering Service
Putting on the Ritz catered our wedding and their food was so good! I worked with Mila and Mindy during the process and thoroughly enjoyed working with them! Guest enjoyed the food (especially the Hors d'oeuvres—those meatballs and cheese/bean quesadillas were gone so quickly lol) ! There was plenty to go around though. And the guests loved the assorted cupcakes (the cake was provided by someone else) and bartending services!
There were was internal changes with staffing over the time we hired them to the wedding day, but that did not create any issues. It seemed they had a smooth communication system and everything we agreed on during the tasting was exactly what we had at the wedding.... -

Katie Sent on 12/11/2024Great catering for the DMV area!
We had POTR cater our wedding and had rave reviews from our guests! They are a great value for the quality and quantity of food/drinks you receive.
We also rented furniture and linens from them as well as used their catering and bartender staff. We were very impressed with every part!
The food was all warm and tasted like they did at our tasting. Their appetizers, specifically, are amazing! We loved them and had a lot of guests mention that they loved them. Highly recommend their cream of crab soup shooters!!
They were flexible and easy to work with. They worked with us to curate the perfect menu and quote for our wedding. We loved them and would use them again!Putting on the Ritz ,Catering's reply:

Caitlyn Sent on 11/16/2024Amazing Wedding Caterer 10/10!
We highly recommend Putting on the Ritz for any event, but specifically for weddings!! Mariah was super easy to work with throughout the whole process and made the planning seamless. It was so nice to have our caterer, linens, china, and day of coordinator all wrapped into one. The food was AMAZING, the staff were all so kind and hardworking, and the linens/china were gorgeous. They made it all look so easy! We will definitely use POTR for any future events and recommend them to all of our friends! -

Rachael Sent on 11/14/2024Absolute perfection!
We had such a wonderful experience with Putting on the Ritz! From the initial contact to the tasting to our wedding night, everything was amazing! Everyone we worked with was incredibly responsive and attentive and most importantly, the food was unbelievably good! Our guests raved about it all night and for several days after. And they had no problem accommodating vegetarian and vegan options which our guests also said were delicious. I would highly recommend working with them! The attached photos are from our tasting. We ended up going with the apple glazed salmon (our fav!), the braised short rib, roasted veggies, and the most delicious mashed potatoes. Passed hors d’oeuvres were the beef crostini, mushroom tartlet (which my mushroom hating mother LOVED), and the crab stuffed mushroom. -

Kiley Sent on 10/22/2024Understanding Service, Amazing Lasagna
Bobby patiently worked with me on several different options for catering our wedding. The day of, the food was delicious. We had standing apps of antipasto; ceasar salad; and a buffet with several types of pasta and chicken marsala. My guests commented on how good the lasagna was months later. The team was lovely to work with day of; anticipating our needs and running the food and drink at St. Francis Hall like a well oiled machine. We provided our own alcohol and brought in a cake from a bakery. Putting on the Ritz was happy to accommodate these choices. For cost, service, and taste, I highly recommend Putting on the Ritz. -

Juliana Sent on 09/29/2024Amazing food and superior service
Absolutely wonderful from start to finish. Bobby and his team did a knock-out job. So many of our guests come up to us complementing the food - they truly wanted for nothing. The portions were abundant and everything was fresh and served hot. -

Darby Sent on 09/03/2024Absolutely delicious and professional!
Bobby and the Putting on the Ritz team knocked our wedding catering out of the park! We got compliments on the food all night long - the chicken and waffles station and the buffalo chicken Yukon bites served during cocktail hour were especially big hits. Every single member of the POTR staff was friendly, attentive, and professional, and I really enjoyed chatting with them over the course of the event! Bobby was so helpful through the entire wedding planning process, and helped us with everything from color-coordinating linens to planning signature cocktails (which were also very popular!). We're thrilled that we decided to have them cater our wedding, and we'd absolutely recommend them! -

Delicious Food and Wonderful Experience!
Bobby and his team at Putting on the Ritz were excellent and provided a wonderful experience for our guests while taking the stress off of us during the planning process. Right from the start they were quick to respond to any and all inquiries. Our guests told us that the food was some of the best they had ever had at a wedding! The biggest hit were the lace cookies. Family members have continued to joke for months after the wedding that they won’t be attending family events unless someone brings those specific cookies (newsflash I’m surprising them on Easter). Not that there is any time for a bride to be worrying on her wedding day with everything else... -

Suzanne Sent on 02/06/2024Best wedding dinner any of our guests have ever had!
Without being hyperbolic, Putting on the Ritz provided my wife and I with the best wedding dinner we or any of our guests have ever had, and we can't recommend them enough for other couples.
Working with a wedding caterer is a months-long process, and we had an excellent experience with Bobby Mitchell and his team throughout every step. My wife and I attended over 12 weddings in 2022 and 2023, so we were looking to do something a little different. From our first conversation, it was obvious that Bobby has decades of catering experiencing and he was quickly able to bring our ideal menu to life, while simultaneously making recommendations on how to best accommodate our vegetarian... -

Ashley Sent on 10/09/2023Professional Staff and Delicious Food!
Putting on the Ritz provided food, tables, chairs, and attentive wait staff and bartenders who all added to our wedding day! The food was all delicious, and Putting on the Ritz provided vegan and dairy-free options for our guests who needed it! Multiple guests complimented the food, the attentiveness of the staff, and the signature cocktails at our wedding bar. The Putting on the Ritz staff also worked at our venue many times before and provided us with thoughtful advice about the layout of the space and what worked best. We recommend booking with them!Putting on the Ritz ,Catering's reply:
Thank you for your kind words, Ashley. It was such a pleasure working with you both. Best wishes for a wonderful future together. -Claudia -

Lindsay Sent on 09/29/2023Delicious & Well Executed!
The details, quality of service and especially the food was beyond my expectations. Serving food for a large group of people presents its own challenges, but putting on the ritz knocked it out of the park seamlessly. There were so many comments about how delicious the food was from the first plate down to the last table served. They did an incredible job and I would choose them for my big day over and over again. Thank you for your service and attention to detail!
