Rhonda was always extremely quick to respond to questions, requests for menu changes, etc. She was also very patient. I'd never ordered catering an event before, and she spent quite a bit of time helping me find the right balance of menu items and services. On the day of the event, Creative Cuisine sent Sam, who was at the venue and ready to go well before guests started to arrive. She'd set up a very attractive display table for the food, complete with some decorative pieces to accent the buffet stations. She also worked with me throughout the evening, happy to accommodate any desired timing for having different courses ready. Our guests raved about the taste and quality of the food. If you're looking to cater an event around Columbus for a group of any size, I highly recommend Creative Cuisine Catering. Great food and service!

I used Made from Scratch to cater my (awesome) casual wedding reception. Originally, we had planned…read moreon simply ordering food, having it delivered and doing it all ourselves. We'd save money, have food we liked and all would be grand. Then I started thinking about all the things we'd need to buy/bring/clean-up after and my head nearly exploded. So, I hit up Yelp for some suggestions and started looking around for caterers. Boy, am I glad that I did! I sent in an email and was quick contacted by Lauren Dillon. She was friendly, helpful and professional. We talked about what our event was going to be and what we were looking for and settled on a theme for the food. "Fun, non-fussy, easy to eat" was the order of the day. Within a couple of days, I have a proposal for a menu from Lauren. We had some specific food allergies that we need to work around and Lauren/MFS were super accommodating. On the day of our reception, the 2 staff members were prompt and completely set-up by the time we arrived. We literally had nothing to do! And the staff were fabulous. They took care of everything. They boxed up the leftovers as meals which were "donated" to the staff at our venue. I heard nothing but compliments about the food from our guests. While we may have paid a bit more than we would have doing it ourselves, being able to enjoy my reception without having to worry about refreshing trays or trash duty was worth every penny. I would gladly use Made From Scratch again when planning a larger event!

This review is for the catering aspect of Schmidt's and not their dine in facility…read more I planned my wedding at the Ohio Historical Society: Ohio Village, and if you use their facilities for a party, then you must pick a caterer off of their preferred list. At first, I scoffed at Schmidt's, and marked it off as a "sausage and kraut" house. I mean, who wants that kind of stuff at their wedding? Well, after a disappointing consultation with one of their other preferred caterers, I decided to give Schmidt's a shot after taking a look at what they offered on their website. I am so glad that we decided to go with Schmidt's! The contract procedure, and getting everything in order went well thanks to Arlene! The only real problem we had was with the linens being pricey, or not being available, and this was like... a week, or two before the wedding, but everything worked out, and we were told by OHS management that our reception was decorated nicer than any previous receptions they had. (Not sure if it was sincere, or not, but it was still nice to hear.) NOW, to the FOOD! We ordered basic cold cut sandwiches, traditional potato salad, a cheese and veggie tray, and some bahama mamas (their signature sausage.) Sadly, I couldn't partake of the bahama mamas due to me being worried of spilling red sauce on my wedding gown. The food was great, and was just what we wanted. It was nice and simple, and everyone left with a full stomach from our early wedding. So am I going to recommend Schmidt's catering? YES, YES, YEESSSS! They were so helpful on one of the most stressful things a bride has to deal with. They also made it work with our small budget for 50+ people. I will warn you, I had to deal with a grumpy fiancee about not having cream puffs instead of wedding cake. Choose wisely!

Everyone RAVED about the food (we actually had a better turn out because we advertised Schmidt's was catering!). There was more than enough food to meet our needs - especially the mini cream puffs! (YUM!) They provided not only the food, but the beer as well - which also received rave reviews! The staff quietly worked in the background to make sure the food was hot and available, as well as cleaning up behind our people as they were socializing. Jennifer was such a pleasure to work with that I felt as though I had made a new friend by the time they left. There is absolutely no question that we will use them when we have our next event!

Steven's catered my wedding. I heard about them from a friend who uses their services all the time,…read moreand now I definitely understand why. Steven impressed me throughout the process! My first meeting with him was different than with any other caterer: he spoke with me and my mom and was clearly very passionate about the food itself! (Amazingly, I didn't get that vibe from any of the others I met with). We talked through many options and what would be best for the event and the guests coming, during that meeting and afterward, to make sure we had the right menu. I also got to taste test almost everything that I had actually chosen (not just any samples from his menu) and was impressed even with that. One very important thing was the fact that Steven was extremely willing to accommodate dietary issues. I had two friends attending the wedding with severe food allergies (both different ones), and without hesitation, Steven offered to custom make each of them a plate to avoid any cross contamination. No other caterer that I spoke to was willing to do this, but it made all the difference for my friends who were able to enjoy the wedding without worry. Finally, I can't stress enough how good the final results were. I got so many comments during the wedding - even from people who aren't foodies like me and wouldn't normally comment on food - telling me that it was the best and healthiest food they had ever had at a wedding. I would have to agree. It takes a lot to pull that off for a large group of people, but Steven's did it beautifully and very kindly. I would recommend Steven's to anyone!

Short version - not the experience I wanted for my daughter's wedding day. Bottom line - we paid…read moreapproximately $149 per person for a buffet meal where the food was on par with tepid, bland hospital fare. THANKFULLY, We we had great planners, a great DJ, and loving family and friends who made the entire event fun and light. If you decide to hire this company, here's some food for thought: 1) Executed Change orders are a MUST - and it's just good business hygiene -Make a spreadsheet of exactly is provided in the package you buy. -If you make "upgrade" selections, get the cost in writing, get an explicit change order (cost and quantity; even no-cost changes such as changes to the schedule / when food is to be served) signed by you and PC Catering Events and track as a line item in your spreadsheet. Working with young brides and families can be challenging - it's an emotional time and things can get lost in translation. You would think a wedding catering event company that's been around for 30+ years would know this. Being rigid up front is far preferred to being inflexible on the day of the wedding when unexpected time changes come up at the last minute. (Our event ran ahead of schedule, but because of the serving time on the catering contract, we had a 40 minute gap until they would serve our food (it was not yet warm when we needed it). Thank goodness the DJ got us up and dancing for 40 minutes while we waited. When the food was served, it was warm, but not hot.) 2) If you don't receive the final invoice from PC Catering Events by the T minus 3 week date, send an email requesting it (with a read confirmation receipt - or better yet, certified mail). We started reaching out to PC in late March / Early April and got no response until I called a number I found on google on 4/12 and Kevin picked up the phone. If they tell you they already sent the final invoice prior to the 3-week milestone (and to check your spam mailbox if you don't have it), ask them to forward the sent email with the time stamp from their Sent inbox. (I asked for this repeatedly and they would not send.) 3) Carefully scrutinize your spreadsheet from item 1 above against the invoice they provide. I asked repeatedly for a breakdown of the additional cost that doubled our event cost. Our package, base price of $31.50 per person for 50 people became $149 per person for 50 people (inclusive of plates, linens, etc.) for a buffet set-up (not plated). I purchased the alcohol separately - so this was not factored into PC Events per person cost. Once I think I have it figured out, I will attach to this review. 4) Add a tasting to the contract. It's worth the expense. Based on positive food reviews, I can only presume that little to no effort went into caring for the quality of the food at our event. I don't know whether the "warm" temperature of the food was a contributor to its overall lack of appeal. It looked and tasted like it came from industrial packaging purchased from Gordon Food Services. I had 3 bites of salad. The knives provided were inadequate to cut the beef tenderloin. The appetizers were dry and had to be covered in sauce to make it possible to chew and swallow. 5). While you should not have to do this - get confirmation directly from the venue that the catering company has submitted all required paperwork to have the event. We received a letter from our venue 2 days before the wedding stating that PC Events couldn't work on their site because they had not turned in the paperwork. He eventually turned in the paperwork, but when I asked Kevin to send me proof of reinstatement, he told me to call the venue myself. 6) Go with your gut. If you get to the final 3 weeks and you sense things are spiraling out of control - don't throw good money after bad. I could and should have moved the event to another community space that was available to me, ordered pizzas, pasta dishes, and salads, and hired a local bartender. It would have cost less than the additional $3,000 I had to pay on top of my existing $5,000 deposit. Incidentally, PC Events offered a $542 "discount" if my daughter and I would sign an agreement that neither I, my daughter, the wedding party, friends, and family would post any negative reviews about PC Events now or in the future in any form of print or media. (Basically they would pay me $542 for unlimited liability on me.) Since my daughter and I have no control over the potential actions of hundreds of people who could be linked to us, I had no choice but to pay the $542 to keep the event on the rails.

Worst experience with a company I have ever had. On 9/29/24 I spoke with Kevin because I was…read moreinterested in having them cater but he was unable to give me a price estimate on the phone. On that day he took down my card info but said I would receive an invoice/ contract within a couple days and after I sign I would have to fill out the card info again. On 9/30/24 my card was charged $2250 and I just received the money back after filing a chargeback with my bank. This has been an absolute nightmare where I have been bullied and threatened by Kevin/ Nancy for nearly 3 months. I immediately called Kevin and left a voicemail asking what that was for. He texted and said he was busy and that it was for my deposit. To which I responded I never received any paperwork. He told me to check my spam and I asked to speak to his manager since he said he was in a meeting for several hours. I never got any call and then later that night I received the paperwork. I saw the price estimate and because of how I was treated I was no longer interested in working with them. I never signed anything. Kevin said I would receive a refund in 10 business days or less. 9 business days go by and I follow up. I also follow up on the 10th business days on 10/15. No response from phone calls, emails or texts. I then left a negative review and filed a chargeback with my bank. That evening I received the below email from Nancy. I since took down my original review on the advice of a lawyer until the bank sided with me. To my original review they said I was a former employee and was lying. I updated my review to include screenshots of emails and texts proving I'm not a former employee. I responded to their email and didn't get a response until I got this email from Kevin. I questioned this response and told him I will not be signing a refund form because I never signed a contract in the first place. told him to send it over and I would look at it. I never received anything. On November 4th they must have been notified by my bank that I filed a chargeback. I received this email. My review was not slander it was the truth. My bank has said they haven't received a response from PC events. They tried to offer me another time to take my reviews down for a $150 Amazon gift card which I declined. And then we had no contact until November 18th when I deleted my reviews and they sent the last email. I never responded and finally the bank has sided with me.

We also ordered the potato salad and it was very bland tasting. Also, for $3.00 you do not get very much potato salad; not a good value. Again, there was a salt and pepper shaker on the food truck tray one could use. But, aside from the Covid comments above, how would one know that there was no salt on it until one tasted it, necessitating another trip back to the truck to get salt. I would not get this food again. Pat's BBQ food truck is so much better.

He made me a refreshing and flavorful Strawberry Basil Margarita in a mason jar, from the specialty drinks menu. I chose 3 tacos: Catfish Po'Boy, Kung Powell Shrimp, and Grilled Fish. I ate the Po'Boy first, which essentially ruined the other two for me because it was far better. I wanted to choke down two more Po'Boy tacos. Um, next time. I got an order of Avocado Salsa and Chips to go; I used to get this from the truck when I worked downtown and know how delicious it is. The place is about 20 minutes from my work, but it is worth the drive. Keep in mind the tacos are small for $3, but they are filled with quality ingredients. The space itself is funky and comfortable. When you enter, the takeout counter is clearly marked to order there, or to dine-in, proceed to the dining room which has several tables, as well as bar seating. I was the only person who dined in during my hour long visit, but someone came in to order takeout and I heard the takeout employee tell him he would bring it over shortly, then saw him walk the order over (I am assuming to a neighboring business). I recommend it if you are in the area for lunch or dinner.

We'd tasted their food before, and from our very first meeting their enthusiasm and flexibility won us over. We worked mainly with Sue, who was incredibly knowledgeable about our venue (Darby House). She was happy to accommodate even our slightly unorthodox requests, and was patient and affirming as we planned our Ohio wedding from California. She scheduled a private tasting for when we were in town, as we couldn't make their normal scheduled event. We had great communication leading up to our big day, and she made sure to clarify everything her staff needed to know. They could accommodate our special menu requests for gluten-free, veggie/vegan, allergens, and kids. On our wedding day, she checked in with my now-husband and I make sure everything was on track. They set aside appetizers for us in the bridal suite so we could enjoy after pictures. The staff was friendly and courteous. All the guests loved the food! We had short ribs with mushroom onion demi-glaze, chicken supreme with lemon oregano sauce, green beans, and mac +cheese. The short ribs were probably my favorite, though the chicken was also great. All the food was hot and served very quickly all 150 guests. By default, plated meals are a duet plate with both entree selections, which made collecting RSVPs and making place cards very easy (no specific menu selections to mark). These were full size entrees, so it's a generous portion of food! Surprisingly, I think the appetizers were an even bigger hit! We had a large selection, and Sue was helpful in deciding the correct quantity. Shrimp shooters and cocktail meatballs are a MUST (the pork belly canapé with also popular). Plates and cutlery and champagne glassware were included. Linens could also have been ordered, but our venue requires special linens so we opted to order through them. When we had to postpone from 2020 to 2021, the process was easy with no additional fees. Highly recommend Bosc and Brie!
