    Cindy & Team 10/10

    Cindy and her team did a wonderful job with our wedding! When looking for a caterer, we had a hard time finding a caterer in or around Fredericksburg with availability, reasonable prices, and that was easy to work with. Cindy and her team at Riverside were incredibly responsive and easy to work with. I sent over the ideas I liked on her website, and she helped me build a fun menu in a few emails back and forth. (Please note: we had fancier food choices and it was all excellent!) She was very helpful when the final numbers came in and modified the invoice to accommodate our drop off in guests. On the day of, the food and service were both excellent: stations were set up to plan, plenty of staff was there to oversee everything, her team stayed and picked up all tables. Every guest I spoke with during and after the reception said "y'all's food was really good!" I even had a friend ask how Cindy makes her veggies as she liked them so much. My only regret is not setting up a tasting with Cindy prior to booking so that I could have had that meal twice :) I highly recommend anyone in the hill country having an event to look into using Riverside!

    Thank you so much Cassidy! It was a pleasure to work with you and I’m so happy that our food was enjoyed by all! Blessings to you and your family!

    Absolutely tasty and amazing!

    Cindy and her team are so wonderful and easy to work with. They definitely helped our wedding dreams come true. Not only are they so great to work with, but their food is absolutely DELICIOUS!! We had them cater our rehearsal dinner and wedding reception and they killed it both nights! I highly recommend using this catering company for your next special event. Anything they cook will surely leave you and your guests' tummies happy and full.

    Exceptional service from a well-qualified catering company!

    Cindy and her team did an awesome job at our wedding. She was always responsive with my questions, and provided everything that we agreed upon. They are a very organized outfit that allowed us to enjoy our event without having to worry about the meal. We had tons of compliments on our meal (brisket, sausage, macaroni and cheese, and green bean casserole). Overall a professional vendor with great service and reasonable prices. Would highly recommend for others looking for an experienced catering service in the area (married in Fredericksburg, TX). Thank you so much for everything.

    Perfection

    Food was amazing, so many compliments all around! The most kind and professional team ever. They went beyond what they needed to do and even stayed late to save my day to help serve my cake. So much thanks goes to Cindy and her team!

    Guests still talking about the food.

    The food was delicious, we had about 150 people and there was more then enough food and people were getting seconds. They were kind, responsive, and I would 100% recommend Riverside to any wedding or event where you want delicious food and great service.

    Great service!

    Working with Riverside Catering was an awesome experience! From the tasting out on a ranch in Boerne, to communicating with Cindy, and to the day of the actual wedding, everything with Riverside Catering was amazing. Cindy is very communicative and responsive when I had questions. She is also very flexible and open to changes if you decide to change your mind about something. The food was a delicious hit (the mac and cheese was our favorite!). We also had a lot of leftovers that we were able to eat throughout the week after we got married. The sausage heats up nicely. If you want an easy-going and seamless experience while wedding planning, Riverside Catering is the way to go!

    Absolutely Amazing!

    I can't recommend Riverside Catering enough! Not only is their food delicious, but their staff is friendly and helpful. We had both Texan and non-Texan friends/family raving about how great the brisket and sausage is! My personal favorite is the mac and cheese, which Cindy was kind enough to give us an extra platter of for the day after the wedding! Thank you Riverside for being part of our special day! We will remember that food forever!

    Delicious food, AMAZING service, & unbeatable pricing

    Cindy & the whole Riverside Catering crew brought professionalism, great service, & best of all: delicious food! Due to planning the wedding from a different state, we were not able to do a tasting, but the food exceeded every expectation! We got SO many compliments! With changing COVID demands, Cindy worked closely with me to ensure that the guests were cared for & safe in all of the food/beverage areas. Would definitely recommend to anyone wanting delicious food, AMAZING service, & unbeatable pricing.

    Professional and great

    Riverside came to my rescue when my catering company pulled out. I didn’t get o taste the food and they did not disappoint. The brisket was so moist and all the food had flavor. We chose Queso and dares for appetizers and people are still raving about them. Cindy was quick to answer my calls and emails, even if it was about changing our order. We didn’t have much left over and her team was professional as well

    Food was perfect!

    The food was amazing! We didn't have time to do a tasting but I read reviews on wedding wire and they were true y'all! I also saw that they had served at my venue before and that made me feel at ease, but seriously cannot recommend them enough! The food was fresh, they had kids options, and it was tasty. If you can book them I would! The owner is sweet, flexible, and fast responding! Hope this review helps you book them! (:

    Delicious, affordable and I'm still dreaming about the BBQ

    Cindy is AMAZING!!!!! Her food is the best BBQ I've ever had and I wish she had a storefront so I could enjoy it beyond my wedding. She was prompt to answer emails, very accomodating, and very professional. She made our day so easy and was incredibly affordable. Wish I could give her 10 stars!

    People are still talking about the food!

    I can not recommend Cindy and her crew enough! From day one Cindy made everything so easy from setting up a tasting to creating our menu. I never had anyone talk about wedding food weeks after the wedding but our family and friends absolutely loved the food and won't stop talking about it. We did the mac n cheese bar during cocktail hour that everyone has been raving about. It was so nice after our entrance to come to our head table and have our food waiting for us. They even packed to go boxes for our hotel room. We chose the brisket, sausage and tequilla lime chicken and it was so delicious. They moved all our guests through the buffet line fast and had everything cleared off tables promptly as well. It was a stress free experience working with Cindy and I am so thankful we did because she made our wedding that much more amazing. I would highly recommend Riverside catering for anyone looking for their wedding or special event!

    The food was great and the price was right. Dealing with Cindy was easy and the food came right as planned. Everyone at the wedding raved about it.

    Catering with food that is better than restaurant quality!

    The food was incredible. Their service was excellent. Highly recommend.
    Literally the best banquet style eating I’ve ever had.

    I can’t say enough wonderful things about Riverside Catering! They were extremely responsive, professional, and many of our guests said it was the best catered meal they’d ever had, not to mention their prices were better than anyone I found in the Hill Country. Perfect for our Fredericksburg wedding. I highly recommend their services.

    Cindy is amazing. She was kind, personable and my husband and I felt wonderful about supporting her small local business for our Boerne wedding. I reached out to Cindy multiple times for questions throughout my planning process and she was always quick to answer and honest. Our guests must have loved her food because they ate up EVERYTHING even though we payed for extra! We got compliments from our families and guests. Most importantly, she has many options and she is affordable. When paying for a wedding, you expect to spend a pretty penny on food. However, we were floored by her prices, especially considering how yummy everything is. I would not hesitate to use her again for any event! Thank you Riverside!

    Testimonial

    We recently had the pleasure of working with Riverside Catering for our wedding, and we couldn’t have been more impressed! From start to finish, the entire experience was seamless and exceeded our expectations.
    The team was professional, accommodating, and incredibly detail-oriented. They worked with us to design a menu that perfectly reflected our tastes and the theme of our wedding. The variety of options was fantastic!
    The staff was friendly and attentive, ensuring that everything ran smoothly and that our guests were well taken care of.

    We also appreciated their punctuality and organization—they set up everything on time and took care of all the details without us having to worry. The service was impeccable!

    Far beyond expectations!

    Cindy and her team went way above and beyond for our daughter's wedding!! We were referred by the venue and never had time to sample the food before the wedding. We were beyond pleasantly surprised!! We had turkey, brisket, cheesy potatoes and the amazing peach cobbler! All of our 130 guests raved about how tasty everything was. Thank you for making our special day even better! Sheila
