Where to begin! When the search for a cater began, Seasoned in Seattle had by the far the most unique, interesting, and locally-sourced menus we could find. They offer something truly different from your standard wedding fare. Our tasting was delicious and sealed the deal. Pedro and his team are fantastic to work with. Pedro is highly communicative, professional, and also relaxed in a way that I really appreciated when wedding planning can be so stressful. SIS accommodated our special sourcing requests and provided detailed information about the farms and food purveyors they work with. When there was a miscommunication with our rentals vendor, Pedro took care of it. Our guests raved about the food - pretty much everyone said it was the best food they'd ever had at a wedding. I can't recommend Seasoned in Seattle enough for weddings or any other special event. read more

We were so happy with SIS who catered for our wedding back in Sept 2021 at Pickering Barn. Everything went smoothly and we would recommend them! The staff: we coordinated with Ben, Catharine, and Pedro who were all responsive, professional, and helpful with answering our questions and helping us through the process. It was also very clearly distinguished what the customer vs caterer vs venue was responsible for which was so appreciated. The food: we were very impressed with the menu offerings, quality of food, and the amount of food provided! We had appetizers plus a stationary grazing table. For dinner we did buffet style with plenty of options for our guests that accommodated different dietary preferences. It also came with beverage service. Everything was delicious and our guests enjoyed everything as well. Service/other: what was nice was SIS contracts with a rental/linen company so we got our dish ware, glass ware, linens etc through them (SIS coordinated). They also provided servers and bartenders so they took care of everything from set up to tear down. Staff were a pleasure to work with! Only hiccup was day-of the wedding they were short a couple table cloths which was not a big deal. Also be sure to double check all of the rental quantities we did find some errors but they were quickly corrected! read more

Great options, great food! Easy to work with, called back same day. They were on time, set up was beautiful and they threw in a few extras! Seasoned in Seattle even brought containers for leftovers! read more

Seasoned In Seattle Catering - Here's the spread. - Caterers Near Me - Seattle, Washington

I hired Seasoned In Seattle to cater a Celebration of Life for my husband. I can't say enough about how efficient, cheerful, and reliable these folks were! The staff was on time, took care of all the details with energy, humor and respect. Pedro was in the lead and did an amazing job. The food was delicious. Every appetizer exceeded my expectations and the remainder that I took home held up well. Michael and Ben in the lead made it so easy for me. I have nothing but kudos. Really, I don't think you can go wrong with this establisment. read more

Seasoned in Seattle was recommended to me by my best friend. They catered her wedding a year before ours, and I was able to get a first taste then, and many more later (we attended a few of their tastings). During our roughly one-year long engagement, my now-husband and I went to MANY catering open houses and tastings. Seasoned in Seattle's food beat the competitors every time. We loved the food so much that we had them cover our rehearsal dinner as well--for which we used their drop-off/delivery option. Communicating with Andy was always incredibly easy and he was always very thorough and understanding. He even answered a lot of my mom's questions in person at one of the events, which put her at ease. Also, he gave us many suggestions about rentals and things that we may not have thought about otherwise :) Their menu has so many options (with really affordable per person prices), and we loved them all. But this is what we went with: For the Rehearsal dinner we did the beef tips, salmon, rice, asparagus, and potatoes. Everything was amazing and everyone at the rehearsal dinner was impressed! For the wedding reception dinner, we had the chicken in white wine sauce, rice, broccoli cauliflower mornay, new potatoes, and meatballs. Our friends are STILL talking about the food we had months later and how they not only went back for seconds, but thirds! Which also goes to show that they bring a ton of food. Our friends were able to take home some leftovers, too! We also had them take care of the champagne toast (we provided the champagne). It really aided a lot on the big day. Thank you guys so much!! Bottom line, Seasoned in Seattle had the BEST food out of everything we tried (which was a lot), AND the BEST prices out of all the options we looked at. Their service was great, too!! read more

They catered our wedding last month and we can't say enough about how great it was. When we were planning the we met with a few caterers and thought Seasoned in Seattle were the most professional & organized. We also attended a few catering events and felt that the presentation & quality of their food was far better than the others. And best of all they were less expensive than everyone else we looked at. They did an excellent job at our wedding. The food & service was outstanding and my wife & and I received many compliments about how great the food was. They are very good at what they do and offer a lot of value. We'd recommend them to any of our friends / family & if we ever need another caterer we will use them again. read more

Their new cafe will be my new favorite spot to go for coffee and a place to study! Glad to have them in the neighborhood read more

AMAZING!!!! First off, Andy is amazing to work with. He answered all of our questions quickly and easily and never seemed to be bothered. When it came time to pay for their services, it was easy to get a hold of him (even though he was busy!) and he even let us make changes right up to a few days before the wedding. Second, the event lead who was in charge of our actual event was wonderful. She made sure that we got some of the passed hors d'ouerves down to us where we were taking post-ceremony photos. She also left us some hors d'ouerves on our head table for while we were dancing. I had some issue with the timing and had to postpone the champange toasts as some people were taking a while to get their food and sit and eat. When I talked to her about it, she was very easy going and waited until the minute I said we were ready. Awesome! Third, the bartender was really good about making sure everybody had enough to drink. Our wedding theme was "international" and we requested only international beers. Well, the beers we requested had run out, but in its place they put only more selection of international flavors. For me, that was really awesome that in the midst of the event they remembered all of our even smallest requests! Fourth, the food was fantastic!!! We had their Greek Menu, and I tell you if you want to get your guests to say they had awesome food, serve the greek menu!! All we received were compliments all day, and even days after!!!! All in all, I would recommend Seasoned in Seattle to ANYBODY I knew who was throwing an event (wedding or not!). They were nothing short of awesome the entire time! read more

We used Seasoned in Seattle catering for our wedding 6/21 at Lake Union Crew. We attended two tastings..both beautifully done and were sure we could pick anything off the menu and not go wrong. We looked at several other caterers and Seasoned in Seattle was the best value. The evening went perfectly! Our guests raved about the food, the service was seamless and almost invisible. Everything was beautifully displayed. We had a dessert buffet, friends brought home baked goods. I totally forgot about linens, serving tools, etc for the dessert counter and Andy took care of it without my asking, setting up a beautiful display with the desserts that matched the food buffet. The bar service was also great..good choices, efficient and looked nice too. If I ever have a large party or event in the future I will for sure use Seasoned in Seattle again!! Also loved the venue, Lake Union Crew. read more

We hired Seasoned in Seattle to cater my step-dad's 80th surprise birthday party/dinner. From the initial tasting to cleaning up after the event, everything was done with efficiency and professionalism. Tasha was the lead for our event, and she quickly put me at ease. I just can't say enough about how impressed we were, and how happy we were to have selected Seasoned in Seattle for our party. All the staff knew their jobs, knew the food well, and were easy to work with, friendly to all, and our guests are still raving about how good the food was! Ben and Michael in the office were super easy to work with as well, and looked out for our best interests every step of the way. When we need a caterer for our next event, you can be sure Seasoned in Seattle will be the first call we make. read more

I celebrated my 60th Birthday in Edmonds, WA two weeks ago and Seasoned In Seattle catered the affair. My guests are still raving about the food. Andy Celli is the BEST! Mr. Celli was attentive to every single detail. The set-up was totally 5 Star. The crew that worked the event was polite, courteous and catered to every detail. At the end of the evening, they packed up the remaining food and the following day, I was able to serve it at my Brunch. Thanks Seasoned in Seattle, you are the best. Andy, you went above and beyond in making my event special. Thank you! Brenda read more

The new cafe is the good hangout for breakfast and lunch. Good place to get coffee and study. Very quiet environment. Friendly staff. Good customer service. Spaces are limited for parking. Recommend getting the cup of soup and sandwich combo. The smoked salmon chowder that has salmon, potatoes, onions and seasoning is perfect for those cold days. The pulled pork sandwich contains citrus marinated, caramelized onions, cilantro lime aioli on ciabatta roll has good flavors and just the right amount of seasoning. read more

Amazing! They catered my rehearsal dinner and I have nothing but great things to say about them. They took care of everything. The food was great, the polenta lasagna was a major hit. Everyone attending just had great things to say. I even forgot to bring juice and soda and Andy ran out to a store to grab that for us while we did rehearsal. That was amazing customer service! I would recommend them to anybody doing an event. Thanks Guys! Julie and Akash read more

Erin was so wonderful in accommodating our short notice event. The food was delicious and beautifully displayed. The wait staff was kind and efficient! We highly recommend!! read more

Seasoned In Seattle Catering - Lunch buffet for funeral - Caterers Near Me - Seattle, Washington

We've been to a lot of weddings where the food was very "blah." Just your static, standard wedding fare of green beans, mashed potatoes, and roast beef. That is NOT what we wanted and so we sought out a wedding caterer that could create a unique, fun menu for us that our guests would rave about. That is EXACTLY what we got with Seasoned In Seattle. We fell in love with Andy Celli from the start and decided to hire him based on personality, well before ever tasting his food. When we went to their open house about a month later, we knew we had made the right choice - the food was amazing. Andy did a spectacular job throughout the process and gave us great advice about building a menu, budgeting, guest count, and so much more (we went with a Mediterranean theme, by the way). He was even able to incorporate food for a handful of our guests who were either vegetarian or had allergies. He's been doing this a long time, and it shows. Andy's personal touch was all over our wedding and we can't even remember how many comments we received about the delicious food (and still continue to receive). Another great thing about Seasoned In Seattle is that they provided all the dishware and utensils, so clean-up after the reception was a snap, which was very important to us as our reception was hosted at a private residence. Their service staff was professional and sharply dressed. It's worth noting that we interviewed many other caterers who charged WAY more but didn't deliver the services that Seasoned In Seattle was able to provide. We could go on and on so we'll just end with a great big THANK YOU!!! Jennifer and Cory Brewer (Wedding July 24, 2010) read more

Seasoned in Seattle catered our September 2006 wedding at the Golden Gardens Bathhouse. We went with the Ho-Down BBQ meal and beer/wine beverage service for all 120 of our guests and couldn't have been happier. The service was fantastic, the food was amazing (we even got the keep the leftovers), and everything looked awesome (we especially loved the cascading fruit display). We had no problems with the planning process and they were the least expensive of all the options we looked at for the type of food we were interested in. I would use them again if I needed a caterer. read more

After attending a wedding reception catered by Seasoned in Seattle, I had to find out from where they got the food. I admit it, I had low expectations given that the buffet was set up an hour or so before guests arrived, but let me tell you that I was wrong. In fact, I later asked for the contact information so that I could use Seasoned in Seattle for my rehearsal dinner a few months later. Seasoned in Seattle offers easy options and fantastic service that takes the guesswork out of catering an event. The ability to choose "drop off" catering or to have your event staffed is a huge differentiator for Seasoned in Seattle. If you're on a budget, the drop off option allows you to have a fantastic display, delicious food, and lower costs. The food is fantastic - we've had both hot and cold options at different events and both times have thought "this is delicious" and heard others saying the same. The service is helpful, timely, and pleasant - definitely one of the best and easiest to work with vendors I've dealt with over the years. And, the attention to detail is much appreciated. I highly recommend Seasoned in Seatte for any event where catering is needed. read more

What a fabulous catering company! Andy was a delight to work with. He answered my 1,000 questions through email with promptness and professionalism. We used Seasoned in Seattle to Catering for our wedding and the food was top notch. We had a Caribbean theme to our wedding so their Caribbean menu was perfect! I highly recommend the pork sliders as a passed appetizer -omg my guests are still talking about them! The staff was so professional and prompt with their execution and clean up-they were flawless. Our best man said " It was the best food I have ever had at a wedding." That was such a wonderful compliment to us, because we truly believe that good quality food should be provided to your guests during a party or event. Oh & I forgot to mention the food display was gorgeous! read more

I'm not sure why I waited this long to do a review. Probably because planning a wedding was so time consuming, I wanted nothing to do with weddings after it was over. :) Anyway, my husband and I hired these folks for our wedding last November. We chose them without even tasting their food, but went off of a recommendation from our friends who were also using them for their wedding. Sure enough, the food for both our friends wedding and ours was amazing. PLUS, Andy the owner was super friendly and knowledgeable. I felt very comfortable just letting him handle everything. They worked with the venue we chose, The Rainier Chapter House in Capitol Hill, and it all went seamlessly. Both my parents have Celiac disease, and it was no problem accommodating them. AND the price was pretty reasonable in comparison to other caterers in the area. I highly recommend them! read more

Andy was a delight to work with! I am a wedding planner, and a bride of mine had hired Seasoned in Seattle to cater her wedding of almost 400 guests. They were professional, polite, super helpful and just a joy to work with! The staff even helped me light candles before the reception. They went above and beyond my expectations, and the food was amazing! Would highly recommend them to future brides. Thanks Andy!!! read more

A great find. Im not a food critic/snob however, i was very pleased. I like a seasonal or rotating menue. This establishment is a must try. For my money i want my taste buds satisfied.. And it was. read more

First off, my review is only for their cafe since I've never used their catering service. Second, the only reason I'm giving them four stars instead of five is because my sweet tooth wishes they had a larger pastry selection. But otherwise, I'm really happy there's a new cafe option in the area - and with good food too! (I should specify, I've only had their cinnamon roll and chocolate chip cookie, which were both delicious!) The employees (including one of the owners) were incredibly friendly and seemed to genuinely be excited about their work and the area. I really like the idea of supporting people who are a part of the community and want to be here. I'm looking forward to returning and trying out their lunch menu! read more

We used Seasoned in Seattle on January 26 for my daughter's wedding. We chose them beacuse one of their sample menus was the type of food she wanted and they had good reviews. They exceeded our expectations and hopes. Andy (owner) is great to work with. The food was beautifully displayed. The staff was professional yet friendly and were very good at carrying out everything they needed to do from removing used plates to getting the cake cut. The food itself was delcious. Many people said it was the best wedding food they had ever had, including the photographer. We had a buffet dinner for about 140 people. We highly recommend them. read more

I use Seasoned in Seattle for the majority of my catering needs. Andy is the greatest person to work with when creating a menu and putting together details. Our company decided to have an impromptu event the week of Christmas and I called Andy because of my experiences in the past. He let me know that the staff was off that week for the Christmas holiday but he would let them make the decision if they wanted to caterer our event and they all agreed they would! I cannot tell you how elated I was. Seasoned in Seattle is what catering is about. They create a divine menu, their displays are immaculate and the food could not get any better. From the initial menu proposal to the clean-up after the event....Seasoned in Seattle never fails to impress me. read more

I can't say enough good things about Seasoned in Seattle Catering. I was watching costs for my wedding and talked to several caterers who wanted to charge me twice as much, for half the amount of food and offered almost no service. Everyone raved about the food (even a few culinary snobs in attendance), there was plenty of it and tons of choices. It looked outstanding and tasted even better. The staff was wonderful and in the planning process they really made sure no detail was missed. Based on the presentation, flavor and service - you would have thought I spent twice as much. read more

Can't say enough about the catering staff. They arrived early for our backyard party, cheerfully lugged tables, chairs, glassware, food, etc. up four flights of stairs, had everything set up and ready to go, looking beautiful. Ben called to go over every detail, Chi did last minute flower arrangements, Gustafo braved the rain to man the bar, Selena was incredibly organized, and Minnie had a constant smile on her face. Food was great, delivered warm, and beautifully displayed. Michael made a house call weeks before to advise on table placements, and as host I was able to relax and enjoy the party with no worries. Cleanup was impeccable. Price very reasonable. Would definitely use Seasoned again for our next event! read more

This place just opened a cafe. I went in to buy a coffee, and the guy talked me into lunch. I decided to get the grilled cheese and the smoked salmon chowder. OMG!! It was the best sandwich and chowder I've had! The coffee was good too. The employees were very personable. I was pleasantly surprised; they exceeded my expectations entirely! I will definitely be back, and spreading the word! read more

I have used Seasoned in Seattle for two very different events. First was my 50th birthday party at The Factory Luxe and the second was for a Rotary auction at the UW Center for Urban Horticulture. Seasoned in Seattle greatly exceeded my expectations for both events. I worked with Michael Sebastian and Ben Jablonsky. Both were available to me to answer questions and they both made very important and helpful suggestions. The food was fantastic and the staff that worked both events were extremely professional. I recommend Seasoned in Seattle for any catering needs! read more

I LOVE SEASONED IN SEATTLE!!!!! I hired them for my wedding last weekend and I was impressed with their service. I received so MANY comments about how this was the best wedding food anyone had ever had. IT WAS AMAZING. They were professional, flexible, responsive and fantastic!!!!!!! Thank you for helping to my our wedding wonderful. read more

Seasoned in Seattle was incredible! Guests are still raving about our food and i crave their meatloaf constantly. They were so incredibly helpful and the wait staff was so attentive to each guest. During our cocktail hour we had a few guests who were unable to move easily around in the crowd so they went to a seperate area. They ensured they had a constand flow of appetizers to keep them full until dinner. Additionally, I had an unexpected event occur i needed catered in two days. Andi stepped in and took care of everything even delivering it to us himself. It shows the extra care he and his team give their clients. I cant thank them enough for all they did! read more

We hired Seasoned in Seattle to cater our wedding. They were fantastic. The owner was always quick to respond to email and answered every question. The woman in charge the day of the event was great -- she helped us know when to open the buffet, when to cut the cake, etc; she was very helpful. The staff was friendly; the bartender smiled all night. One thing I liked about them was how easy it was to choose from an array of services. They ordered and brought the linens, for example. We were able to work within our budget. One thing I had fretted about was that this was a same-sex wedding and I didn't want homophobic staff serving us. I needn't have worried. Everyone was really supportive. read more

Seasoned in Seattle was the best decision we made in our wedding planning process. Not being from Seattle, I found them when looking for Yelp reviews for an affordable caterer, what we got was beyond our imagination and in our budget! We went with the Caribbean BBQ buffet with a variety of appetizers, wine & beer bartending (self-purchased alcohol), hot beverage service, they cut the cake and boxed the leftovers. We ended up under budget ($2500 MAX) and blown away by the courteous, and friendly service and the incredible food. TASTE Due to timing with the City, we had to pick a caterer/bartender before we went to a tasting. My fiance and I had a good feeling about Seasoned in Seattle after the consultation, so we took a leap of faith. A month later at the tasting, we carefully tried every dish and it was better than we imagined, we high fived on our way out the door. The actual WEDDING. We got compliments all evening on how great the food tasted, including from guests with dietary restrictions. We're going to be enjoying the food for the next week! PERSONALITY We met with Andy for our initial consultation, he offered great advice not only about the menu, but also recommendations on how to maximize space at our venue and other crucial veteran wedding tips. Wedding day staff were extremely helpful, friendly, and a joy to have present at the wedding itsel. They never interrupted with questions, but always confirmed what needed to be done. They went above and beyond in every regard. My niece had a meltdown and they boxed up a piece of cake specifically so she could have her treat the next day! Professionalism Extremely responsive by email and phone. Since our wedding was Jan. 4 that meant coordinating payment over the Christmas holiday, I swear someone is always available! Staff was on-time and ready to work the day of the wedding, food was hot and delicious, clean-up was quiet and thorough. My guests loved the food and appreciated the service so much I've had 5-6 ask me for the caterers name so they could write reviews as well. Should I ever have a catering need in the future, I'm just calling Andy directly. read more

Seasoned in Seattle catered our Kirkland wedding this month. It was a solid experience; Andy responded to emails promptly and was able to work with us on a slightly customized menu that met our budget. We ended up going with a comfort food themed menu that included burgers, hot dogs, brats, beans, creamed corn, potato salad, fruit, and mac and cheese. The spicy beans were particularly excellent - we regretted not going back for seconds!! Luckily, all of our leftover food was packaged up and sent home with our families to enjoy again later. Many of our guests commented on how delicious the food tasted. We were also impressed with how friendly and efficient the bartender was; there was never a long line for drinks. Their entire staff were equally pleasant, and clean-up was efficient. The only negative was that Seasoned in Seattle doesn't provide its own grill (we were made aware of this before signing the contract, so at least it wasn't a surprise). Thus, for burgers and hot dogs, we needed to rent our own, which was more work and running around before and after the wedding. read more

We worked with few caterers and decided to go with Seasoned in Seattle catered. It seemed a bit not welcome on phone conversation at our first try. But after that we communicated via emails and Nora was quite supportive. She customized our menu and they did really good job on our wedding last Feb 27th. Their food was DELICIOUS. We received lots of compliments from our guests. The prices are really reasonable. We would highly recommend this Caterer to our friends and if there is any occasion, we would contact them again for sure. read more

Seasoned in Seattle was incredibly frustrating to work with. We tried for a month to just get a quote from these guys, to no avail. When we finally thought we had communicated our needs properly, they came back and told us they were all full up for the month of our wedding (not the particular date, mind you, which was on a Monday, and not likely to have been booked already). Their secretary/assistant doesn't understand how e-mail works ("You know how those things get lost. Never in my in-basket") and would not get us contact info for the owners so we could skip going through her. All in all, I'd highly recommend going somewhere else. read more

We used Seasoned in Seattle for our Jamaican themed wedding reception. We ordered their sample caribbean menu. Everything was delicious and fresh! Andy was so easy to get ahold of and answered every email and phone call we had for him. At the tasting event he greeted us immediately, showed us around and let us get to tasting. He even got in touch after the tasting to see how everything was. We were very impressed and will be using Seasoned in Seattle for our catering needs! read more

Great little cafe with friendly service and delicious food in the neighborhood. Will go again!

Easy to work with, reasonably priced and delicious. Seasoned in Seattle was just what we needed for a small, informal brunch gathering.

My companion and I went for lunch at the cafe which is next door to their catering company at the corner of Orcas and Rainier Ave S. The buildings sit in an area that looks particularly bleak in winter which is accentuated by the drab green exterior of the cafe and catering buildings. There are black shades covering the windows also. All this drabness dissolves once inside;the cafe is decorated in a hodgepodge rec room kind of way with a wall full of posters of a Socal punk rock band called Social Distortion.Three tables and a long bar with comfy seats front the narrow serving / prep area. The cafe serves as a cafe / presentation arena for the catering company. There is a breakfast and lunch menu. We tried three items plus a soup:the French Dip, a Pulled Pork,and that day's special:Street Tacos (3), and a Smoked Salmon chowder. All tasted fantastic, no issues with taste! Service was a bit off kilter, not sure if the person was just new, or a pleasant combination of ditzy and calculated. We were offered,as was everyone else, samples from the catering side of yummy white chocolate mouse,-way too small samples- and way crazy not to sell this as a full fledged desert!Overheard talk of pulling the pulled pork sandwich from menu-No! Hope to return to discover they have not committed this insanity! read more

Andy and Kai are by far the best catering team leaders in Seattle. Andy pulled off an amazing job of doing the catering for 175 people with very short notice. Extensive gourmet menu, beautifully fresh ingredients, gorgeous presentation (especially the fruit kabobs). Andy and Kai were able to give great suggestions after hearing about what we were looking for. There was more than enough food and the price was within our budget. Guests shared many happy comments! read more
