From the very beginning, Tracy made me feel like my daughter's wedding was just as important to her as it was to our family. If you're looking for a pro caterer who delivers exceptional food, outstanding service, and genuine care, I wholeheartedly recommend Tracy's. Every detail was handled with such kindness, and attention, that we were able to relax and just have fun for our wedding celebration party. Watching our daughter celebrate with family and friends, knowing everything was in such capable hands, was an incredible gift. Thank you, Tracy & Joanie for helping create a day filled with joy, laughter, and beautiful memories that our family will cherish forever. We are truly grateful for the care and heart you brought to our wedding party! Five of five stars! read more

We hired Tracy's Tucson Catering & Events for a private event. During service, live larvae were discovered in hot chocolate that had already been prepared and served. After this discovery, two guests who had consumed the drink became ill and vomited, and all food service was immediately stopped due to safety concerns. We contacted the business directly and requested a full refund. That request was declined, and we were offered only a partial amount despite the food being deemed unsafe and not served further. This review reflects our direct experience. Documentation and photos were provided privately, and the matter is now being addressed through appropriate channels. read more

I'm writing to share my extremely disappointing experience with Tracy's Tucson Catering. This was by far the worst catering service I've ever used. Tracy arrived in a rush while we were still setting up for our event, showing little professionalism or care for presentation. The food quality was terrible--the chicken was greasy and floating in liquid, and the beef was stuck together in clumps. I ordered fajitas, but what was delivered didn't even come close. To make matters worse, the serving trays she brought were old and in poor condition. One tray even broke, and she was going to leave it like that until someone from our event had to step in and replace it with their own equipment. Overall, the service was unprofessional, the food was unacceptable, and the experience was stressful during an already busy event. I would not recommend this caterer to anyone. read more

Tracy is Phenomenal! Impeccable service and communication all around and such a warm and welcoming personality. She had us confident right from the start in our decision to bring her team in to design our community Grand Opening event. She took our photos for inspiration and blew them out of the water with her amazing layout (pictures below). Tracy truly does it all and we cannot thank her enough! From the food to the decor, rentals and amazing staff it was perfect across the board. We plan to use her with all of our communities in the area moving forward. 10/10 read more

The worst experience. Tracy was late both days and arrived after the start time. All of the food was extremely salty and not what we expected from the menu at all. I received complaints that the kitchen area was left dirty. Tracy and her husband were fighting in front of staff that worked at the facility where she was serving. She was explicitly told not to use anything from the facility but ignored that directive. Many people had to forego the meals and ordered in food for their lunch on the second day because it was so bad. Please do not use her if you want professionalism, food on time and if you want the food to taste good. read more

I attended a catered dinner for a work event last evening and wanted to take a moment to let everyone know how impressive the catering service was. Each entre' was of such a high quality that it would rival any fine restaurant. ...and I don't say that lightly. Tracy provides food for large numbers of people without sacrificing quality... like at all. Excellent presentation and very professional staff as well. Amazing! read more

Working with Tracy's catering was great for our nonprofit, she was understanding of our budget, asked great questions to get to know us and how she could help. She kept up with our changes and made great accommodations to make sure we had tasty food. Tracy was fun to work with and I appreciated our easy interactions. Our guests commented how much they loved the food. We had the lemon, herb chicken and the garlic, ranch mashed potatoes and green beans with brownies and ice tea and lemonade. Thanks again Tracy! read more

Tracy catered our 50th wedding anniversary and it was a complete success! From the planning to execution everything was absolutely perfect! Tracy and her staff were professional and engaging!

The food was amazing, she delivered exactly what she described saying the best prime rib and barbecue slider bar, the best sauces and dips with her mamas recipes and her own, with Wisconsin roots hard working, truly one of the best catering companies in Tucson, she's definitely on the top of our list. Oh best deviled eggs ever! read more

I recently helped plan a celebration of life with my dear friend of 25 years for her husband that passed away. We used Tracy's Tucson Catering and it was not a good experience. This is some of what happened on the day of the actual event: 1- Tracy showed up 45 mins before event after countless promises to be there early. 2- She didn't bring 6 of 8 pub tables, 15 benches, the dispensers for the margaritas &sangria or the iced tea and lemonade or the antipasto salad. 3- Since she was bringing the beverage dispensers and tubs for the other drinks we had no cold beverages for our guests. She also didn't have cups because they were locked in the van and one of her helpers that ran to get some of the things she forgot had the keys. 4- She promised her husband Mike would bartend, he wasn't there so she had one of the servers fill in. 5- We requested chicken nuggets for the kids and we got chicken tenders covered in pepper. Not a very kid friendly meal. 6- The event was scheduled from 2-7. The food was not kept hot or cold. So the cold stuff like deviled eggs were warm and crunchy after 5 hours and the hot food like the prime rib sliders were barely warm. Nothing was covered and no one wore gloves to serve. 6- The food overall was fine. Some people really liked it and some didn't. That I chalk up to individual preferences. I had the prime rib sliders and thought they were yummy. Using Tracy for this event made a difficult time even more difficult and stressful. She promised so many things and then couldn't even deliver on the basics. It took her 3 days to pick up her equipment. Also we provided the alcohol, mixers, deserts just to name a few things and our cost was still 100$ per guest. read more

Just amazing all around. We needed catering for an event at the UA on short notice (only a week!) since the UA catering was booked out with the tailgating event. Tracy stepped up to the plate. Not only was she able to quickly produce a catering contract within a day, but she worked with us to stay within our budget. She delivered exactly what she promised. I had nothing to worry about in terms of preparation cause Tracy brought everything we needed: linen, utensils, plates, napkins, and most importantly GREAT FOOD. Tracy and her husband were on time and a joy to interact with. They expertly set the tables up with no guidance whatsoever (we agreed on no serving), and came back at the designated time to take back their things. Her wings and meatballs were the crowd's favorite. read more

Another awesome event. Food is always great and service as well. Highly recommended after multiple events!!

Tracy and her team were great all the way from the interview process through the party. We hired Tracy for decorations and delicious food. We got both and everybody at the party could not tell us enough how much they loved the food and Tracy! Thank you Tracy! You, your food, your service and decorations are top notch! read more

My company used this cater for our holiday party and the food was disgusting and soggy. Nothing looked appetizing and the food was cold. She was rude and ran out of food. The best thing she brought was cake and she didn't even make it. Costco maybe? Like the other guy, if I could give a zero I would! read more

Worst food ever. Over salted everything. Dried out chicken and overcooked prime rib. She was rude and obnoxious. If I could give zero stars, I would. read more

Tracy's Catering is delicious! I had the privilege in having tried her delicious menu at 2 different events, 1 being a Quinceanera (12/4/21) & the other at a Holiday Social (12/9/21) I was DJn for. Guest's raved about the food & went back for second servings... I unfortunately could only have 1 serving because the food was gone by the time I went back!! When I am in need of a catering service, I will be calling upon Tracy and her team to serve my family, friends & loved ones!!! Give her call for your next event! =) #delicious #nomnom read more

Our organization booked this company for a New Year's Eve party. We were supposed to get a Prime Rib Dinner. McDonald's would have been better! The food was absolutely awful - first of all, what we were served was NOT prime rib - All portions were well done, dry and tasteless - more like a square cut roast. Tried to mask it with onions and mushrooms. We received a couple dry roasted potatoes - no seasoning or butter and canned green beans and about 8 pieces of frou frou lettuce for a salad. No rolls - no butter. The wait staff was ill equipped to serve over 100 people. We watched one of the 3 servers carry one plate at a time to serve. The salmon was served cold but at least that was edible. The best part of the meal was the cake for dessert (Which they did not make) All in all - if you want a decent meal and good service, do not use this company. read more

We had a small get togetherbut we didn't want to work too hard we wanted to be with our guess so we called Tracy's and she work out a budget for us and when she came over she set up everything just great it reminded me of just old-fashioned Hometown cooking and we had a wonderful time thank you Tracy I'd highly recommend you to anybody that's looking to have parties between you know 20 people to I think they do about 200 or so but that we had 25 and it was great! read more

We hired this company to cater our Christmas party this year. We booked for 150-200 people and ran out of food with around 130 people. Caterer also signed contract to bartend our party and complained that her bartender wasn't receiving enough tips after requesting we give her $250 more for bartending insurance. We were supposed to get prime rib sliders which was basically slow cooked beef roast covered in horseradish sauce that made it inedible. BBQ meatballs were the only edible things There and they ran out within 30 minutes of the start of the party. Caterer made snide comments to our party goers that you get what's here and nothing more. Caterer was pretty rude to the venue also and kept trying to bring up issues during the party. We tipped the bartender extra and the caterer lost her mind about the tip not going through her. I would not recommend using this caterer she's unprofessional and doesn't prepare for actual parties. If 0 stars was an option that's what I would give. read more

Tracy and her team catered a Grand Opening celebration (about 400 guests) for our company. Tracy and her team were excellent. The food was wonderful, the presentation was amazing and her team was very polite and helpful! Tracy spent a lot of time in set-up and preparation. I would recommend Tracy's to those in need of a Tucson area caterer. read more

This was the worst meal we ever had. We had a New Years party with prime rib and salmon. The salmon was served first and meals were finished before prime rib was served. I was the last person served and I was served roast beef it was the size of half a piece of bread and 1/4 inch thick no fat anywhere but that was after I scraped the onions and mushrooms and 1/4 cup of peppercorns off it. I must add that this was after my whole table had ate and the girl waitress told me to just wait. We paid $30 a plate and my meal was 2 baby baked potatoes 4 canned green beans small piece of roast beef and onions and mushroom. No bread, no butter for potatoes. Never hire this women not one portion was the same size. I was also told they couldn't give me a meal because it was a bigger piece of meat so a man had to get it. Very sad read more
