Excellent food; great service from ordering to delivery. Would definitely use their catering again.

This place is amazing and everything we have purchased is absolutely delicious. Fresh polish sausage, potato pancakes and their dumplings are so incredibly good that we can't pass them up when leaving when leaving with our other items. They are located in a small storefront and there isn't a lot of parking, so plan that in when you are going there, especially if it's around a holiday. read more

What a great group of people. We use Polonia every thanksgiving. It is an amazing traditional turkey dinner. Prices are fair quality is awesome! Pickup for your food works like clockwork and everything is always hot and delicious! Thank you for your spectacular service! read more

Booked Polonia for a house party, so easy to work with, Brian and staff went over and above, we selected entrees and sides, generous portions and very tasty. Delivered on time! Would use in future for events. Give them a try. read more

Having a traditional Holiday Party for our company was impossible in 2021 due to to COVID. This year we elected to have smaller department parties so our employees could at least celebrate with their the rest of department and spread out safely doing so. Polonia offered individually packaged turkey, potatoes, vegetable & gravy hot meals that everyone raved about. We were able to have a department party each day of the week and allowed our employees some fun and great food with their department peers. Thanks Polonia for such great food and service. read more

We used Polonia Catering for my son's wedding reception in September and they were truly exceptional. I cannot say enough about Mike, he was thorough and helpful, not only worked with us on all details, but made suggestions, and was mindful of budget. It was never a bother for him to change something and redo the proposals. The Polonia staff was very attentive during reception. All in all, would highly recommend Polonia, and as for Mike, don't know that any caterer could have done what he did. Thanks for making our event so perfect!! Lexi Swiatkiewicz read more

Polonia is the best! I can't say enough about how fabulous our event was this past weekend. We held a family/friend reunion party in our back yard with about 125 people attending and everything was perfect. Mike made it all so easy for us. We had passed hors d'oeuvres, two bartenders, and a buffet dinner with an awesome staff in the kitchen. I can't even tell you how wonderful it was to actually enjoy my own party. When Jeff and Ashley arrived, they said, "Your party is in our hands, go relax," and you know what? I did! They, along with Paul, went above and beyond to feed our guests, keep the buffet line moving, and clean up as the party progressed. As did our amazing bartenders David and Janet! I seriously can't compliment them enough. When we came close to running out of items, David and Janet took care of bringing in more. They were fun, friendly, and super talented with spirits! And wait, I haven't even talked about the food yet! If you engage Polonia and get passed hors d'oeuvres, be sure to order the bacon-wrapped dates. Holy cow, were they great! To be fair, though, everything was delicious and there was more than enough food for our crowd. Oh, and when our party wrapped up at the end of the night? Everything was organized and my kitchen was spotless! I've never entertained like this before but I most certainly will again. With Polonia, of course. I want to go on and on here - suffice it to say that we were absolutely delighted and highly recommend Polonia's "Deluxe Buffet Service," their staff, their food, their tents, tables, and chairs. Awesome party, Polonia! Thank you!!! read more

We used Polonia for our wedding last weekend at warehouse 109 in Plainfield. They did an outstanding job from start to finish. We did the buffet with China and everyone was commenting on how good the food was. The on-site staff were accommodating and efficient. I wouldn't hesitate to use them again and would definitely recommend them. read more

Another successful event, thanks to catering from Polonia. We had a brunch party for the Bears game. Generous portions. Delicious food. Fair price. The fried chicken was delicious. Polonia makes entertaining so easy. read more

Went to a bridal shower where they served their dumplings and polish sausage and neither one were completely done. The dumplings were sticking together and tasted nasty. The polish sausage was still pink in the middle. When I spoke to the host she stated that she agreed and had to pull them from the party as to not get anyone sick. She did call to mention the issues to them and the manager on duty told her that the dumplings were done and that he had had some that morning. The polish sausage he stated that you can cook polish sausage for hours and it will always be pink in the middle. I have eaten both for years and never had it this bad. The family had ordered from you (Polonia) for all of their events and this was the worst. She was not looking for a refund just didn't want this to happen to anyone else, but when this manager called her a liar about how they were cooked and how much he sent over compared to what she ordered she will never order from here again. read more

The caterer cancelled out on me ten days before my party. My event planner recommended Polonia. I viewed their website. After looking at the website, I called them and went there to sign the sign contract and make the deposit. I am so pleased with the service I received. Guest having been calling to tell me how much they enjoyed the food. All the food was fresh and delicious. The server that came was so courteous. and helpful. They really give you an abundance of food for you money. I highly recommend them. read more

We just love Polonias. We ordered from here on the recommendation of a friend. So glad we tried them! For 2 years now I've ordered some of the dishes I'd need for my holiday parties. The turkey is SO moist. It's magic! The stuffing is excellent as well and I don't normally eat stuffing. Give them a try. Just a tip....if you order for holiday there is a deadline to place so don't procrastinate or you may miss out. Check the website for the deadline date at least 2 weeks in advance. read more

Upon our search for caterers, Polonia put together a nice proposal that aligned with our budget, so we decided to do a tasting. The tasting was good and the food was what it was. We didn't love everything, but we liked it enough. I had a few additional questions and we were told that we needed to decide soon, as the date we want, is filling up and people are requesting it. Our tasting was in October and our wedding was not until the following July. I spoke with and dealt solely with Mike and I went over a lot of questions before putting down the down payment. I was completely dooped with Polonia. We scheduled a walk-through with my venue and at that time came the initial "nickel and diming". Mike said they would need to charge me extra to "take out or remove the garbage". We were told that water service was not included and that our guests could get "bottle water at the bar", and to have the waitstaff actually pour the water, was going to cost us extra in addition to paying for each water goblet. I had asked if they would do any unique set up with the food and or decor, which they would not, and pretty much it was going to look like banquet instead of wedding food. With all the extra nickel and diming that was occurring, we would be WAY over budget, not to mention the distrust and not forthcoming with this information BEFORE we put down the down-payment. We decided to look for a new and different caterer. We fell in love with a new caterer who was upfront about everything, their food was amazing and their setup and decor was fantastic. I reached out to Polonia to get our down payment back and they said they would not. I corresponded with Mike and he finally told me, that if they "book another wedding for the day" then they would refund me the money. Little did we know, they do multiple events a day so beware! They never refunded our money and I DO NOT recommend Polonia. Do not ever let anyone tell you, your date is in demand, as it is a selling tactic. read more

We used Polonia to cater our wedding reception in June and they were AMAZING. We were able to use them for literally EVERYTHING. They supplied a large outdoor tent, chairs, tables, linens, plates, cups, food, and cake service with 2 assigned waiter/waitresses for the reception. I was apprehensive at first using ONE company to do everything, but they were amazing. Very prompt with responding to emails and phone calls, very courteous, and their food is AMAZING. At our tasting we were blown away at the quality of the food, and all our guests RAVED about the food! People were requesting leftovers! They set us up with a cake company out of Tinley Park, creative cakes. That was the most delicious cake we have ever had! And they also set us up with an outdoor restroom service. It was essentially a trailer with beautiful bathrooms so people would stay out of our house :). They were clean, wonderfully stocked, and nicer looking than our own bathrooms! I highly recommend Polonia for any couples wanting to work with a company that will bend over backwards to make everything perfect for you. Thank you, Polonia catering! Very much appreciated! read more

Used Polonia at the recommendation from a friend. Absolutely did not regret it. Planning my son's baptism and party was overwhelming enough, Polonia made the food the easy and least worrisome part. From the assistance on the phone to having my friend pick up the food, everything went absolutely smooth. Lastly, the quality of the food was excellent. Everyone loved and raved about it. The only thing I will change is next time (my sons first birthday) I will order less. Their portions were so big I had way more food than I expected and had a little too much leftovers, lol. Definitely was a good problem. Thanks again Polonia and I'll see you soon for our next party! read more

It was very important to us, when we were planning our wedding, that the food be fantastic. After our tasting at Polonia, we knew they were the best choice. Everything we tried was delicious! It was hard to choose just a couple entrees, but we ended up going with the short rib, wild rice stuffed chicken, and pasta for our guests to choose from. Polonia provided all the linens we needed, as well as the china settings, and serving staff. We were very appreciative that they accommodated a "secret dinner" that we, the bride and groom, had immediately after our ceremony; especially that they saved us appetizers from cocktail hour! The short ribs were delicious, the chicken was delicious, and we received so many compliments from our guests about how much they enjoyed their dinner. Polonia was also very accommodating for a few of our guests who have dietary restrictions and needed special gluten-free meals - we also received rave reviews on those! We also chose to have a Sweets Table that included macarons, cream puffs, mini cheesecakes, brownies, and cookies - all to die for! We will definitely be using Polonia again for any future catered events! read more

Never catered anything before and was a bit nervous to use Polonia to cater my daughter's baptism for my very picky and critical Italian family! I shouldn't have worried! The customer service was great and the food was delicious! Tons of compliments from our guests! Would highly recommend Polonia - I will definitely use them again! read more

We had an outdoor wedding this past Saturday night. The menu included Brushetta, Shrimp Cocktail, Muslin Salad, Jamaican Jerk Chicken, Pulled Pork, Grilled Veggies and more.... I have NEVER heard so many people rave about "wedding food". Polonia, you guys rock! Thank you for making us look so good to all of our guests. We are still enjoying all of the leftovers.....yummy yummy yummy! read more

Used polonia to cater my wife's surprise birthday party. Not only was the staff on the phone fantastic but the gentleman who made the delivery was great as well. As for the food it was perfect. They made the event easy and everyone left full and happy. Will use them again. read more

We had Polonia cater our daughter's baby shower last Sunday. All I can say is "WOW"!! Our guests raved & raved about the food. I must have had 10 people ask me who catered the shower (& there were only 50+ guests!). Their potato dumplings were the biggest hit...."good as Gramma's" was an oft heard comment. The delivery was right on time, the food was piping hot, & the delivery man was great helping us get the food set up. What more could you ask? They will be our caterer of choice from now on! read more

Polonia Catering catered my wedding reception. First off they have a huge menu and great variety of food. We also did the tasting which I was so glad we did because it really helped narrow down exactly what we were looking for. The tasting itself was amazing and hands down sealed the deal. Michael was so professional throughout the entire experience. The day of the team went above and beyond. I received numerous compliments on the food. First off it was delicious. Secondly the staff was so through. They were so attentive. And made sure the tables were set up before the party. And helped with even small things like turning on my led candle lights. I truly appreciate everything your team did. Secondly we hired the bar staff through Polonia Catering as well and let me tell you they were equally as amazing. They keep the drinks cold and flowing. And they were so nice and fun. I loved them both. Everyone complimented your entire staff and food. Thank you so much for making stressful event run so smoothly. Multiple guest asked for your information. And I would use your company again a heartbeat. Thank you for all of your hard work. read more

We had a Family Reunion/ October Fest this week-end. The food was excelent and the service was great. We'll use POLONIA for all our events. Maybe we'll even make-up some gatherings just to get their food! My party was the talk of Chesterton, Indiana. Mary Ann Sullivan read more

It's wonderful to work with Polonia! they are a great catering company that always follows through, helps in a pinch and provides excellent food and service. Many thanks to Polonia for their great service!! read more

Polonia catered our wedding reception in June and we were extremely pleased with the quality of their food, extensive menu selection, and service provided during the event! I had looked into many other caterers for our wedding and Polonia was by far the most affordable of them all. Brian and Jennifer are awesome to work with- both very helpful, responsive and friendly. We chose to have a family style dinner which our guests absolutely loved and said that it made for a fun and social dining experience. Polonia's staff could not have been more courteous during our reception. They even set up our dessert table for us despite having ordered dessert from another vendor. I highly recommend Polonia! read more

HOLY COW!!! We had a wedding picnic on what seemed like one of the hottest days of the summer. POLONIA FOOD WAS INCREDIBLE!!! We went with a roasted pig with an on-site carver and a Hawaiian style menu for 80 people. This was an outdoor event and I was so worried that the food would spoil. The food tasted incredible! I had so many compliments and constant requests for the business information. We were so thrilled. Thank you for making our day just perfect!!! I would recommend this catering to everyone for their parties... :) read more

My family and I ordered our Christmas dinner from Polonia catering. Everything was excellent! We all loved it and would definitely order from them again!! read more

I had the pleasure of attending a dinner catered by Polonia at Palos Park Presbyterian Church. The meal was absolutely delicious! I had a large cut of prime rib cooked to perfection, with a salad, roll, baked potato, green beans and homemade ice-cream. The food and service was outstanding! Kudos to Polonia. read more

Used Polonia for my wedding in May. They were wonderful. My husband and I paid for the wedding on our own. And when money got tight, they were really understanding and willing to work with us. The food was incredible. Our guests won't stop raving about it. Best potato dumplings and polish sausage with sauerkraut that I've had. The fried chicken was crispy and juicy. The garlic smashed red potatoes were delicious. I highly recommend! The only reason I don't put 5 stars is because I was very unhappy with the beverage vendor that they recommend. (We had to use a bar service through our caterer.) The bartenders were late, drinks were warm and they weren't professionally dressed. They also sat down most of the night and didn't make any effort to talk to our guests. They also never approached me (THE BRIDE) to discuss their short comings. They have given us the run around when trying to contact them about compensation for the time that they were late. Also they are very difficult to contact in general. I would definitely use Polonia again but I would get the alcohol elsewhere. If they worked with a better beverage company, I would recommend 100% read more
