They don't answer the phone politely. After that, I don't want to use the services of this company.

I had Elegant Catering for my daughter's graduation party. That was an excellent choice. There was so much care, attention and creativity. The food was excellent and very well presented. I like the idea of having several stations which was more interesting than serving out of chafers. I will call on them in the future. read more

The decision that my husband and I made to book Elegant Catering for our wedding was one of the best planning decisions we made. They truly deserve more than 5 stars as their food and service was one of the highlights for our guests, the food is the top praise we've received in the days since our wedding. We were introduced to Carol and Mel through our coordinator. They were kind and started by asking what our favorite foods to eat were, with that they gave us ideas that worked within our budget. Throughout the planning process I interacted with Carol the most, she was very kind and helpful. A benefit to hiring Elegant Catering is that they do not just produce tasty food, they also create a beautifully decorated table with lights, flowers, sushi boats, giant bamboo, etc. They go above and beyond with the decorations. We had food stations for our wedding, I highly recommend going that route as guests get up more and are given more chances to mingle. We had five stations. 1) Big Island Mushroom station: sauteed mushrooms in an amazing butter/wine sauce on toasted bread. 2) Grilled Salmon with a grilled fruit salsa and barley salad. 3) Mini Grilled Pastrami Sandwiches with salad. 4) Hibachi Chicken with pineapple fried rice 5) Kataifi Shrimp with a sweet chili aioli. The overwhelming favorites were the mini grilled pastrami sandwiches and kataifi shrimp. You must get both! The pastrami sandwiches were amazing, I really can't explain it but they were out of this world. Once you ate a kataifi shrimp you had to get more, some of my guests said they had at least 10 of those! The Big Island Mushroom was a big hit as well and is a great option for vegetarians, it's much more special than the mushroom on bread that it might read as, there is a lot of flavor within the mixed mushrooms. There is not one thing that my husband and I wish was different regarding the food. I actually can't wait for an excuse for a future party that needs to be catered because without a doubt I would hire Elegant Catering and recommend them to anyone. read more

Where to start? My husband and I were referred to Elegant Catering for our wedding 3.5 years ago and we were nothing short of amazed by their food, service, and pricing!! They went above and beyond what was expected of them and our guests still rave about the food at our wedding to this day. We love them so much we literally call them for every party that we throw and they will be catering our son's 1st Birthday party next month. Carol and Mel are professional and so easy to work with. They've been extremely flexible, catering their menus towards each and every event that we call them for. My coworkers have started using them for their own events as well!! I really only have wonderful things to say about them. You will not be disappointed if you go through them!! read more

This is the first yelp review I've ever written, so I specifically made an account just to do this. I have absolutely nothing but wonderful things to say about Carol, Mel and their crew for their amazing service, food, hospitality, and care! They just catered and provided full set up and clean up services for my wedding and it was nothing short but phenomenal! They went above and beyond what I had ever envisioned and left myself, husband, and our guests just raving about the food quality and beautiful station displays! If anyone is looking to find a different and unique catered experience, call Carol! They will make sure your event is suited appropriate to you as an individual and work with all your needs and budgets. Thank you again Carol and Mel!! read more

No need to look any further, Elegant Catering is the business for your event. Carol, Mel and their staff provided exceptional service and the food, including dessert, was phenomenal!!

Carol, Mel and staff made our military New Year's Reception a huge success and stress free event for us by providing top notch service and care. Did I mention that their service included full set up and thank heavens, Full Clean Up!!! Carol even responded and was able to provide a last minute request that I requested the day of the event.

I can't say enough good things about Elegant Catering. Carol and Mel have catered birthday parties for my mom and dad and most recently my September wedding. There are a lot of stressful things about planning a wedding and catering was the LEAST of my worries. Their food is phenomenal and they will work with you to create whatever menu you desire. This is not your typical catered banquet experience, I've never tasted something I don't love. What also sets them apart is the unique presentation of their food. Every event they've done the presentation of the food accompanied by gorgeous flower displays, make them the best company I've ever worked with. In addition they are flexible to any situation, my wedding was held outside at a ranch, they adjusted to the requirements of the venue and worked with the lack of prep space/running water etc. They worked with me on décor and provided tables that tied into the event space. The end result was beautiful. If you are looking for a catering company for whatever the event may be, don't waste your time researching, hire them and you won't regret it! read more
