Zambistro Reviews

We had Zambistro cater our wedding and they were amazing!!! Mike is so great to work with and did everything he could to make sure we had what we wanted for our menu. Day of his catering staff were on top of it all! They had everything set up before I even got there and they checked in with my husband and I to make sure we were taken care of. Great experience!

Mike the owner and his team absolutely are the talk of our wedding! The food is the best we’ve ever had and our guests thought so too. We hired them for the rehearsal dinner and did brunch for dinner for our wedding and they completely knocked it out of the park. We 100% are going to be driving an hour to eat at Zambistro as much a possible because it’s just simply the best!

Everything was amazing!! Very professional and friendly. We were able to customize our menu exactly the way we wanted it.

Zambistro was a dream to work with for our wedding. Mike was super responsive and flexible. When it came to the catering I felt like I didn't have to worry about a thing--he had it all covered. The food was INCREDIBLE and the people who attended our wedding are still talking about how it was the best food they've ever had at a wedding. Highly recommend!

I had Zambistro cater my wedding rehearsal dinner as well as a part of my food-station style wedding reception. Even though I had other caterers at my wedding as well do other food stations, Zambistro helped me with just about everything from wine, utensils, chafing dishes, linens, etc. They had staff on hand to ensure that the whole dinner process went smoothly. The food itself was absolutely INCREDIBLE! The mac n cheese….OMG! So good! Does not compare to any other I’ve ever tried. Thank you, Zambistro, for being flawless in execution and taste!

tldr: Decent food, rude and disrespectful employees.

My wife and I had Zambistro as our catering vendor for our wedding. Our venue gave us two choices, between them and Hilltop Resturant, and we went with Zambistro.

Our taste testing and menu planning with Mike went well. This was January, and our wedding was in June. We made our initial selections and were excited to work with them.

Fast forward to two weeks before the wedding. We tried multiple times to contact them through email to finalize our selections. There was no response.

Kara, Mike’s wife, called us saying she’s been trying to get ahold of us and that she thought our wedding was canceled.

We were confused so we contacted her back to make the finalizations. Our decisions with Mike were forgotten about and new options were presented that we had no clue about.

We were told it was too late to order the featured drinks we wanted. Apparently two weeks before the wedding was too short of a time to order blueberries for the lemonade drink we wanted. Mind you, they ended up serving the drinks no problem

Kara proceeded to be rude and threaten us mafia shakedown style. “You better bring the money tonight then.” We were supposed to make our final payment 7 days before the wedding. This was 9 days before. We actually were forced to pay early for fear of Kara canceling our wedding dinner or giving us drinks we didn’t want feature.

My wife is Latina and handled the interactions with Kara. We are not sure but it’s possible Kara might have some prejudices. She might have been afraid my wife wouldn’t pay because of her heritage. I’m not sure why else she would force us to pay early in such an aggressive and dismissive manner.

On the day of the wedding, the food turned out good. But one of the bartenders, a Zambistro employee, accidentally left their keys at the venue. Our coordinator wasn’t sure if it belonged to one of our guests so we took them to the hotel to find out.

The same day we received texts, while enjoying time with our families, from the employee who lost his keys. Not sure how he got my wife’s number, but he threatened to call the police on us for stealing his keys and that he knows our home address. Also the employee’s mother messaged and harassed us about it as well.

The keys were returned as soon as we could.

We weren’t holding the keys hostage. No one knew who they belonged to until we were already threatened.

The only way he would know our address is if Zambistros gave it to him.

The behavior from both the employee and Kara was uncalled for and unacceptable.

I do not recommend Zambistros catering service whatsoever. The food was good, but nothing to write home about.

Be careful with this vendor.
