But he put all of our worries to rest. We planned a Mexican feast and that's exactly what we got! We couldn't travel with much for the banquet so we had LFA catering do it all. Food, wines, beers, very nice disposable plates and tableware. Him and his staff were wonderful and polite very professional! We were very pleased with everything and if we were to it again Jason and LFA would be my first call. Thank you very much. We had many compliments on the food.

We hired LFA Catering LLC for both our rehearsal dinner and wedding, and unfortunately, the…read moreexperience was extremely disappointing. Rehearsal Dinner The first signs of trouble appeared here. Despite our wedding planner reaching out hours before the event, Jason (the owner) never responded. He was responsible for providing tables and chairs for 40 guests but brought enough for less than a third. While the food was acceptable, it did not match the quality we experienced during our tasting. Wedding Day Our wedding had about 135 guests; per the contract, the catering team was supposed to arrive 3 hours early to assist with setup, food prep, and drinks. Instead, most staff and food arrived late and during the ceremony. Jason was not on-site and could not be reached until well after the event began. The bartenders arrived on time but with no direction and without mixers (also part of the contract), forcing our planner to purchase them out of pocket. Luckily we provided the alcohol so we at least had beer and wine. Because of their late arrival and lack of organization, we had to delay happy hour, dinner, and the reception. When food was finally served, many agreed-upon dishes were missing, including gluten-free options for guests with dietary restrictions. Portions were inconsistent, and they ultimately ran out of food, leaving 20+ guests--including our band and planner--without dinner. Jason did not arrive until after 8 PM (seven hours late) and offered no apology or solution to running out of food. After the Event The team was contracted to handle cleanup, breakdown and trash removal, but this was minimally worked on. Our planner stayed until midnight to clean what she could, after Jason and his staff had left. The next day, my wife, several guests and I spent the whole morning finishing what Jason hadn't done. Afterwards, while my wife and I are trying to enjoy our honeymoon and recover from the disaster he created with our wedding, he harassed my wife about getting all of the items he had left at the venue (we had to take them and store them in our trailer so we didn't get charged by the venue). He didn't have the decency to communicate during the wedding or make efforts to correct his mistakes, but he sure could call and text us non-stop when it was impacting his pocket book. You might wonder if there were warning signs. Honestly, there weren't--until the rehearsal dinner. Leading up to the wedding, Jason was responsive and helpful. He provided a wonderful tasting, he even met us a couple months in advance to walk venue and discuss our needs and coordinate with our wedding planner. He even worked with us to design a menu that accommodated multiple dietary restrictions. He seemed professional and committed. However, on the day of, he was overcommitted and underperformed. The food quality was nowhere near what we had at the tasting. It seemed either Jason didn't prepare the food himself (the head chef onsite was not Jason) or he cannot scale his recipes. Most dishes were bland, poorly cooked, or inedible. Jason may be a fine chef, but he is not a caterer. Something though that really defines who Jason and LFA Catering is, not once, to this day have we received an apology for everything that happened. In fact, during any conversation, with us or anyone else involved, he has only made excuses and tried to defend his actions saying he did the best he could. I'm sorry, but if that's the attitude you plan to have, I could not in good conscious recommend him to anyone for any catering needs. After reading another review where he no called and no showed, I feel lucky we at least received some food and services. I truly feel for those people. I hope whoever has spent the time to read this and their review, learn from our mistakes and stay as far away as possible from this company.

As a wedding and event planner for over 35 years taking care of events all over the world, I can truthfully say that I have never witnessed such callous and shockingly unprofessional and unethical behavior from a vendor or individual that my bride and groom, as well as their families endured at the hand of PETER HARRISON. I have since learned that our wedding is not the only one impacted by Peter's action and inaction. I am thankful that the American Hotel is distancing itself from PETER HARRISON. They too are left picking up the pieces from his actions. Don't be fooled by his façade because while he is smiling at you, he has his hand in your pocket and will take your money. He will go to any length to keep up the façade, pretending to be the owner of the American Hotel, writing up your contract with plans to keep your deposit and not perform the service. Have your wedding/event at the American Hotel but don't align yourself with PETER HARRISON and STACK FOODS & CATERING. The American Hotel staff and the "real" owner are good people, dedicated to creating the wedding of your dreams. Notice that even they don't want to be associated with him either!

They were very helpful, clear in their direction and easy to work with. The venue itself is the best in Staunton. The vibe/feel of the Banquet room just cannot be recreated in a modern hotel.

I would definitely use this venue again if I were hosting a party of any kind....reunion, work reception, customer appreciation....etc. Any where you want something special....this is your place!

The American Hotel Banquet Room was very easy to work with from afar. The first thing that pulled us to the Banquet Room was the cost. Compared to Northern Virginia prices, it was a steal! We also loved that we were able to bring our own alcohol, which saved us probably thousands of dollars. My husband and the groomsmen set up the room beginning at 9 am that morning and I was told that Gary was also excellent to work with. With everything being said and done, I absolutely would have paid more for the space because it was worth every penny. And we got a lot of compliments for picking the room, because it is very original and beautiful!
