    Amazing Caterer

    Table47 was great for our wedding. We planned our wedding on a tight timeline and their team was able to provide amazing food and rentals in a timely manner. The food was delicious and the service was great. I would highly recommend them for any event in the area.

    Absolutely perfect caterer

    Table47 is an amazing caterer - so easy to work with, incredibly delicious food, and exceptional customer service. The whole team did everything they could to make this day a seamless one. They were accommodating to allergies and dietary restrictions, worked well with the other vendors, and asked all the questions we didn't know we needed answers to. Their commitment to sustainability and sourcing locally was important to us. The food and drinks were absolutely delicious and were enjoyed by all our guests. Highly recommend!

    Professional and delicious!

    Monica was amazing every step of the way! She took the stress out of planning our wedding reception; one less thing for us to worry about. The wait staff and bartender were friendly, helpful, hard workers, and professional. The food was delicious and upscale, without the huge upscale price! My mom, who is 88, said it was the BEST salmon she has ever had! Absolutely no complaints with food or anything else. We also had some changes to menu and they were very accommodating.

    Table 47 Catering's reply:

    Hi Karen, Thank you so much for your kind words! I'm so glad that you and your guests enjoyed the food and service. (We do have some delicious wild line-caught salmon!) It was our honor to help you and I look forward to assisting you again someday. Thank you!

    We had a wonderful experience working with Monica and Margot from Table47 Catering! The food was fantastic, and the onsite staff were all very kind and professional.

    Incredible Experience!

    Table 47 not only had delicious food (our guests made a point too compliment us on this), but the staff is extremely accommodating. Monica Newby, the Director of Sales at Table 47, was integral in making our wedding run smoothly.

    Throughout the process, Monica met with us multiple times to nail down catering details, overall timeline and scheduling details, went out of her way to ensure we received the best deals on available event supplies, allows for customization of meals to our and our guests preferences, and made sure that she did everything she could to cut costs while keeping the highest level of quality one could ask for. Her expertise as a caterer and wedding planner were obvious throughout the entire process.

    I highly recommend Table 47- they exceeded our expectations with food, planning and organization, communication, and personability. I couldn't imagine going with anyone else.

    Table 47 Catering's reply:

    Thank you Malcolm! That is so kind of you, and I was honored to be able to help you. I really appreciate you and Bingjie as well and look forward to another chance to help you or your friends someday. Best wishes for a bright & happy future together!

    Impeccable Service and Attention to Detail

    Our Association held a business event recently during an allowable restrictive Phase. With Monica's keen eye to attention and incredible flexibility we were able to adapt and adhere to strict restrictions while having an absolutely wonderful time. I would recommend her on the sheer trust we were able to have in her and her teams vision and execution of plan. We highly recommend Oceans 5 and Table 47.

    Table 47 Catering's reply:

    Thank you Jennifer! We're so glad that you had a good time. It was my pleasure to help you and we look forward to hosting you again!

    Delicious food and excellent coordinator

    I loved working with Monica as she was friendly, professional, and detail oriented. Her help with rentals saved me from pulling my hair out. She had a lot of experience and the food tasted AMAZING but affordable. I loved the food at tasting and it still tasted delicious 2 years later as we had to reschedule out wedding due to the pandemic. Table 47 was very flexible and communicative despite the catering team being furloughed for a brief period. Monica showed up to my wedding to personally oversee the details the day of and whole catering team provided awesome service. Many guests complimented the food and I would recommend Table 47 to others!

    Table 47 Catering's reply:

    Hi Seeun,
    Thank you so much! We really appreciate you too, and I was honored to help you. I'm so glad it all turned out so beautifully. Best wishes for a beautiful future!

    We enjoyed our wedding day because of Table 47!

    Finding Table 47 was such a relief! This catering team definitely made our special day easier and more memorable! All our guests enjoyed the food immensely. We highly recommend Table 47 to anyone for any special occasion.

    Shira Wedding March 15,2020

    Our daughters wedding rehearsal and the actual wedding were all held at Oceans5/Table 47 back in March, one day prior to Covid 19 shutdown. Even with the turmoil going on around us as we traveled from IL to Gig Harbor WA Aaron and Monica made our experience stress free. Payments online were easy. Emails and phone calls with Monica were exchanged in a timely fashion. For a casual rehearsal evening we played Duckpin bowling in the private room with pizza, salad and a few appetizers as our meal. Wait staff was attentive and the evening was fun for all. The wedding was held in a nice size room and reception area was the perfect size. We were served 2 types of pasta, salad, garlic bread and appetizers. It was all delicious and very well done. We had open bar both evening and the wait staff did a great job and were very attentive.
    I would highly recommend this venue.
    Thanks you Aaron and Monica for a job well done and for making this wedding for Bailey and Mitchell a special moment in time.

    Intentional and inclusive cuisine

    If you are looking for an intentional, wide-ranging catering offering, look no further! I am a wedding planner and worked an event with the folks from Table 47. They showed up on time with a robust team and a menu of 12 items for an open house event we co-hosted. Everything about their operation was smooth, from the consultation with Monica, to logistical coordination, to day-of execution. The appetizers and meal samplings were innovative, tasty, and inclusive. I couldn't have asked for more! I look forward to working with this team again.

    Table 47 Catering's reply:

    Thank you so much Kate! We really appreciate being a part of that special event and look forward to working with you again on more events.

    Amazing experience from start to finish!

    Table 47 provided catering and bar services for our formal fundraising dinner in downtown Seattle for a group of 200+ event professionals. The delicious appetizers included a themed street taco station, incredible charcuterie display, fresh spring rolls and dungeness-quinoa crab cakes to name a few - they were all a huge hit! Our elevated, four-course mouth-watering dinner went off without a hitch, and guests are still raving about it well after the event. The entire Table 47 team is worthy of their own 5-star review - they are organized and efficient, and they genuinely care about the guests' experience from start to finish. The company's dedication to sustainability and responsibly-sourced products is an extremely rare find, and to top it all off their pricing is incredibly fair considering the product and service they put forth. We truly cannot say enough wonderful things about our experience with Table 47, and can't wait to work with them again on future events!

    Table 47 Catering's reply:

    Thank you Amy! You guys put on such a spectacular event, and we were honored to be a part of it. You created truly outstanding decor and entertainment for the guests, and we were excited to provide the catering for this off the hook event. We look forward to working with you again too!

    So helpful and accomodating!

    It was so lovely to work with Monica and Table47 as we planned for an intimate wedding celebration. There were so many curated details that we needed attending to and they were so helpful in making sure we were able to have everything we hoped for. In all the details and adjustments and requests, Monica and her team did everything they could to provide all that we were hoping for!

    Table 47 Catering's reply:

    Hi Kelly,

    Thank you for your kind words! It truly was a beautiful event as you and your team made every detail so perfect. Plus I really enjoyed working with your team! Everyone was so helpful and together we made an awesome team. I was honored to be a part of this special event and so happy to hear that you and your client were happy. Thank you and I look forward to working with you again!

    Great food, Great Service

    Table 47 was our caterer for our wedding, we did a seated family style dinner table where they served us our food. The food was luke warm when it hit the table, but still very good. This company combines the local flavors of Washington with their catering and each dish was highly complimented by all my guests. The planning of it all was a little hectic and many emails went back and forth, but none the less Monica got it all figured out for us and we got the serpentine table through the woods that we wanted. Such an amazing day!

    Table 47 Catering's reply:

    Hi Rebecca, Thank you for your comments. I'm sorry that the food wasn't as hot as it might have been, but very happy that you and your guests enjoyed it. I'm so glad I was able to help you achieve your vision, it was so beautiful! Thank you again for the opportunity to be a part of your wonderful day. Best wishes! - Monica

    Overall a positive experience but could have had some improvements the day of our wedding operationally.

    If I had to rate, it would be 3.5/5 Stars. We would recommend this catering company but I would be honest about some of the challenges we had.

    Positive Experiences:
    - Monica Newby was great to work with, very nice, and accommodating.
    - The Tasting was amazing and definitely won us over.
    - The price was good in comparison to others we saw at the time but, after our wedding and thinking back... "You get what you pay for." However, the overall experience was positive.

    Opportunities for Improvement:
    - We paid for the unlimited wine/beer/beverage package, but they ran out of beverages. I heard they went to buy more, but I am unsure if they had enough even after...
    - They ran out of wine glasses and stopped serving wine. In the future, I would recommend that they refill the wine glasses instead of bussing all of them away which eventually left our guests without wine glasses/cups.
    - Food portions were REALLLLLY small. Way smaller than expected. It was expected that it would be smaller than the Tasting Experience, but it was WAAAY smaller. However, everything still tasted good. Maybe covid affected the pricing-to-portion ratio.
    - We did not know they didn't serve the cake or announce that the cake was ready for people to come to get it. At the end of our wedding, we found out there were a lot of people that did not get to try the cake :(
    - They would not serve the Roasted Pig (Chinese Wedding Tradition) unless we paid extra per guest. We also had to bring our own paper plates for the pig. Come to think of it.. this is likely why they did not serve the cake... Maybe they would have charged us additional to serve the cake, but nobody brought that up before.

    Something to keep in mind is that we had our wedding almost 2 years ago... I am way late in writing this review so maybe they made some improvements since then. They were kinda new at catering back then.

    Disappointed

    We hired a wedding coordinator to plan our wedding on 9/4/21. Food at our reception was a top priority for my husband and I. We wanted a wow factor and a dinner that our guests would truly enjoy. This was mentioned to the wedding coordinator many times. Apparently, because of staffing issues with caterers due to Covid and changes in catering protocol, most caterers we tried, were unavailable for our date. This went on for a couple of months.
    We ended up with Table 47. It was not our choice, but yet, that was all that was available for our date.
    Table 47 is a restaurant in Gig Harbor, but their menu consists mainly of appetizer style bites and flatbreads, etc. Their catering menu is completely different. So, it wasn’t like we could go to the restaurant and order food that would be served at the reception. It was a battle to arrange a tasting, again stating staffing issues.. My husband and I put our foot down and said that we require a tasting. Most of the appetizers that we were ordering for the wedding, we requested to taste. That didn’t happen. The “Covid staffing “ issue was to blame.
    For our wedding, we had ordered a formal plated dinner for 28.
    Our two choices for the entree were Filet mignon and salmon. We told the catering manager that we wanted the filet served rare and we requested wild king salmon.
    The filets were precooked off site, then finished here at our home, which was our wedding venue.
    The meat was dry and crusty all around the edges and over cooked in the middle.
    The salmon that was served was Sockeye, not King (Chinook) like we had requested, and everyone who had the salmon said the same thing….. it was served undercooked and cold. The roasted carrots were undercooked. Some guests were missing vegetables all together.
    The only positive thing that I can say about Table 47, was that the servers were very nice and attentive.
    The food was all subpar.
    There were also personality issues with the catering manager and myself. I felt that there was a lot of attitude with requests that we made.
    The entire experience with Table 47 was a huge disappointment and caused unneeded stress.
    We did receive a small refund, only after I requested it from the catering manager.
    If you’re looking for “Ruth Chris”, then this isn’t the caterer to use. This is more like Sizzler, on a good day.
    Scale of 1-10, this is about a 1.5.


    Table 47 Catering's reply:

    Dear Susan,

    My team and I were sad to hear that you were not satisfied with the catering we provided for your wedding. It's very important to us to make sure your special day is filled with wonderful memories and delicious food. I thought that your guests really enjoyed the meals as we received some nice feedback from them during the event. But I'm very sorry that you weren't satisfied because we truly care and always make our best efforts to please. We work hard to exceed our guests’ expectations and create an experience to remember.

    It was uncomfortable to read your review and clear we did not meet your expectations for your special day. All of your feedback was brought to the attention of our team and we have discussed each of your concerns. There are some unusual challenges that COVID has provided catering and events, from food sourcing to staffing shortages and more. But we continue to learn how we can provide our guests amazing services despite the roadblocks that have come with this pandemic.

    Thank you for recognizing the staff and their great service. Best wishes to you and Mel!
