I was the wedding planner for a wedding last year and they did a great job! it was a massive wedding and while things weren't perfect they worked really hard and were bussing tables and everybody was kind! Shelly was the woman I was talking with and she was GREAT! so kind and she had a team of about 10 workers and they all were wonderful!! I definitely recommend them for your Colorado Springs or Denver weddings! read more

We had the absolute pleasure of working with Shelly and Y. Lo Epicure Catering for our wedding, and they completely exceeded our expectations. From the very beginning, their communication was excellent--they were organized, responsive, and incredibly thoughtful throughout the planning process. The food was phenomenal. Our guests haven't stopped talking about how delicious everything was! They created a beautiful and flavorful spread that truly impressed everyone. As someone with a gluten allergy, I was especially grateful for how accommodating they were. I felt completely taken care of, and I didn't have to worry about a thing. They also went the extra mile with the little details--I had requested napkins tied in bows, and they learned how to do it just for us! The bar service was fantastic as well--smooth, professional, and always flowing. I can't recommend Y. Lo Epicure enough. They brought so much warmth, professionalism, and flavor to our big day. If you're looking for a caterer who truly cares and delivers outstanding service, look no further! read more

I have used Y.Lo Epicure now for years (and at different organizations) and could not recommend them highly enough. Most recently I used them for an event hosted by the Colorado Children's Campaign at the State Capitol. When I say they made the day seamless and easy, it is not an understatement. Not only did they arrive early, their staff stayed to help set up (and move things around) when another vendor did not show up. The food was such a hit that we ran out of everything half way through the event! I will continue to use them in the future. read more

Phenomenal catering. Everybody was incredibly polite. All of my guest said that they were super nice super fun. They made sure to talk smile with everybody. They did a fantastic job, running our whole dinner service and everything throughout. Each one of the ladies that was working made it a point to come over to myself and my husband, personally, to congratulate us tell us how fantastic we looked and also wish us the best, which was just the cherry on top of such an amazing service. They were super great with set up and took care of everything so that my bridal party could be with me. They were also great during take down and made quick work of getting everything picked up. We did the street taco bar and it was super delicious. They are super quick to answer questions and get back to you as well. read more

Shelly with Y.Lo Catering helped us out so much for our wedding. During the planning process, she was able to make recommendations and update our order multiple times when our plans changed. All of the food provided was tasty, with the correct amounts and proportions for our 150 person wedding. They also packaged up individual meals for the bride and groom to take home at the end of the night. Y.Lo also handled the bar service and set-up/take down of the event space, which all went seamlessly and looked great! read more

We had a celebration of life last weekend. The event was catered by Y.Lo. Carey was amazing from the start. She helped me craft the perfect menu. No detail was overlooked. I also worked with Shelly and Nissa, who were wonderful. Everyone was so kind and sympathetic regarding our loss. The staff at the celebration were fantastic also. When I was researching caterers, Y.Lo returned my call promptly and got right to work on the menu and other details we requested. Carey met with us at the venue the day before to review the floor plan and menu, making sure everything would be just as we requested. They showed up early to set up, so we could start the celebration right on time. Another thing we really liked was that they provided a bar, bartender and mixers. We were able to purchase our own alcohol, which was great. But, we also had the option to hire their vendor to provision the bar. Bottom line? Y.Lo did a fantastic job and I highly recommend them. read more

Dessert first: In our boxed lunch we got a cookie, a chocolate, and a mint. Love we got all three. And my cookie was deliciously soft. And the rest: This was my first time eating Y Lo Epicure. We got boxed lunches for work and it was great! At first I thought the lettuce ratio seemed a bit skimpy, but then quickly was reminded of the romaine recall and realized they probably had to adjust. I was surprised at the large chunks of chicken, most salads have tiny little nuggets, but these were decent sized. I loved the sesame dressing! The boxed lunch also came with a fresh fruit salad. Overall a delightful lunch and would definitely use again! read more

Shelly was hands down amazing! Y.Lo took care of every element of our wedding at Hudson Gardens. From the bartending, serving, and hospitality, everything was above and beyond our expectations. The staff were very professional and sincere with everyone! If I could give more than 5 stars I would!!! read more

Y.Lo was kind enough to cater our wedding last night at the Artwork Network, and we could not be more thrilled with how wonderful of a job they did. I worked with Zoe, who was not only incredibly sweet and helpful, but also willing to and help me make decisions where I was clueless (what color napkins? Zoe says let's go with dark gray - fantastic!). At some point prior to the ceremony, my mother started referring any and everyone with questions to her, which she of course handled beautifully (sorry about that, Zoe). During a somewhat chaotic lead-up to the wedding (where's my family? stuck in traffic? did anyone bring the flowers? what's even going on right now? etc.), Zoe and her team arrived early to set up, and did so without me even realizing they were there. The food was fantastic (we had a buffet of chicken and beef kabobs plus dessert bites!) and they did an awesome job of setting up our ceremony space, flipping it to the reception space, clearing plates and ultimately cleaning up (the venue looked like we had never even been there!). I can't say enough good things about Y.Lo; we highly recommend them!! read more

Shelly and Nissa hit the mark for professionalism, pricing and terrific food at a recent event we had. Catering for 60 people delivering savory and delicious food while creating the perfect room ambience is not easy. I highly recommend Shelly and Nissa for your next event. Thank you thank you for the entire experience - I look forward to using Y.Lo Epicure again!! read more

We chose Y.Lo Epicure to cater our wedding last weekend at the Hudson Gardens and it went perfectly! Andrea was so easy and great to work with leading up to the big day, and she was very accommodating and understanding with all the guest count changes we experienced due to COVID so we didn't end up paying for extra unnecessarily. Another thing I appreciated was that they gave us options to lower the total cost, so we chose to go with disposables, bring our own tablecloths, and bring our own alcohol/drinks, all of which they still served with no problem. The staff on the day of was very professional and clean and made everyone feel safe in covid-times. Guests kept telling us how good the food was and we loved it too! They even boxed up all the leftovers for us which was awesome. If you are looking for a down-to-earth, but professional and top-notch team, definitely go with Y.Lo! :) read more

Y.lo Epicure catered our Grand Opening celebration for our law firm, Márquez Law, and we couldn't be more pleased with their food and service. Katie worked with me through the whole process from beginning to end and was incredibly accommodating to our needs. We had passed hors d'oeuvres with two staff members as well as a bartender. Katie took care of everything! They were able to coordinate rentals of tables, linens and glasses. The event went off without a hitch - everyone raved about the food. We would highly recommend using Y.lo Epicure for your event. Thank you!! read more

I was unfortunately forced to taste the food. All day conference and no place else around. I chose not to eat past one tiny bite of each item on my plate. I tossed the food in the trash. They don't know how to accommodate food allergies appropriately either. Worst caterer ever. Plus they didn't stick around to make sure everything was handled appropriately and that it was all there. read more

I cannot say enough good things about Shelley and the entire team at Y Lo Epicure! They provided the food for my wedding reception, and they handled the cake, dessert bar, and linen rentals too. The food was AMAZING, and our entire family loved it. They accommodated all my allergy requests easily, and were very communicative with their vision, the prices, and what to expect. They helped set up day of, and were all so kind to work with. I am not upset about having leftovers, because everything they made was so yummy! I highly recommend them for anyone planning a large event. read more

Y Lo comes in a few days a week to our building and has various lunch time items for sale. I have had their turkey wraps and salads. They are always fresh and tasty. Nothing to wild as far as menu (although again we probably get a very limited selection), but it is always worth the $6 for whatever I get! read more

I forgot I had a quarterly board meeting breakfast to set up, stalked google, and called these lovely ladies with only 18 hours notice.... they very kindly accommodated me and had everything in my office on time and beautifully prepared. Very happy with their service, price, the quality of the food and their flexibility. I will definitely use them again in the future. :) read more

There are not enough words to express my gratitude to the whole Y.Lo staff for making my party PERFECT. Andrea was incredible, taking care of everything perfectly (there really isn't another word more appropriate). The food could not have been yummier - everyone has been talking about it!!! And it was the exact perfect amount. Through the whole process she was helpful, kind, and knowledgeable. And did I mention the food???? I could not recommend Y.Lo more!!!!! read more

It's been almost four years since I wrote my review for Y.Lo - they're so great, they deserve a second mention! I solely use this company for all my corporate catering needs, and they have always done a wonderful job. They show up on time or early, their staff is amazing, the food and presentation are phenomenal. It's the only catering company I've worked with in Denver that consistently goes above and beyond. read more

By far one of the best caterers we use! Their food is amazing and the desserts are always a hit.

My recent catering experience with Y.Low Epicure has left me disappointed. My catering event was a family dinner party for 25 people, serving heavy hor d'oeuvres. I selected 5 hor d'oeuvres, 2 desserts and a charcuterie board for the event. I worked with Kelly who came to my home for a tasting of my selections before the event. We tasted 6 selections of mine, including the mini crab cakes (which at the tasting were delicious). Unfortunately, we were subjected to the bait and switch tactic which means the crab cakes brought to my dinner party were not the same and were horrible. I ended up throwing more than half in the garbage. I also ended up throwing out the majority of the charcuterie board because it was simply not good and unappetizing in appearance. If you choose to cater with this company...make sure you taste everything and hope there are no surprises when they deliver. read more

I got married this past month at Hudson Gardens and we chose Y.Lo Epicure as our caterer. We had a pasta bar (buffet) with a couple different types of meats. The hor d'oeuvres during cocktail hour were a hit. We had about 155 people at our wedding. Y.Lo was aware of the amount of guests and vendors that needed to be fed. However, they ran out of meat. There were a couple tables left that still needed to eat but there was no meat left. We had about 10 people not show up to our wedding and had those 10 people shown up, then even more people would not have been about to have any meat in their pasta. We had several people tell us after our wedding that there wasn't enough food for them. I am confused why they ran out of food when they were aware of the amount of people we had attending. We spent a lot of money to not have people well fed. Despite this issue, the staff was very friendly at the event. read more

We hired Y.Lo Epicure for our June wedding this year and couldn't have been more thrilled with not only the food they provided, but their service as well. We worked closely with Heidi and she was always so quick to respond to our emails and any questions we had! The tasting that we did was amazing. She was very professional, brought the food to our home, and explained all that they had prepared and the choices we could make. We got so many great reviews about the food at our wedding (we chose street tacos). It was flavorful and there were plenty of options for everyone! High marks to the appetizers as well during cocktail hour! We also used their bartending services and the bartender was wonderful and loved by all! We would definitely use them again and recommend them to all! read more

Lisa and Dax were incredibly generous with their time and talents in providing over 35 meals to the medical staff at Denver Health Medical Center. Our staff have been working incredibly long hours and multiple days without a break and Y.Lo Epicure's surprise of fresh hot meals helped to reduce the exhaustion from not taking a break to eat. We cannot thank Lisa, Dax and their team for their kindness and generosity. We would highly recommend them for any corporate or private event you may be planning. read more

We had YLo deliver dinners to our kids and us for Mother's Day. Everyone raved about their meals! It was a smaller menu than normal due to the times we're living in but still plenty of choices to please everyone. We have used YLo over the years for family and company events and they never disappoint. Consider YLo for your next meal. read more

At a recent backyard sit down luncheon, Y. Lo met my expectations and more. Appetizers and the lunch entrée were delicious and served perfectly. Lisa not only focused on the food but also on how the food would be served. Planning the menu and serving details were easy and prices reasonable and frankly well-deserved. I'd hire Y. Lo Epicure again in a second! read more

We had the best experience working with Y.Lo Epicure. Melanie, our lead point of contact, did an excellent job. We felt taken care of for our wedding and didn't have to worry about the details coming together. We did a taco bar and everyone loved it. Would highly recommend. read more

This is hands down the best catering company that I have ever used! The food is always fantastic and the service that Lisa and her team provides is exceptional. read more

Fantastic service, presentation, and food! Highly recommended. They did an amazing job for our 200+ group.

I loved Y.Lo to work with! I used the to cater my wedding and they did an excellent job and the food was delicious! They were responsive, professional, nice and very accommodating to work with. I worked specifically with Katie and she was so on top of things, she always got back to me quickly. I couldn't have been happier with their service. I highly recommend Y.Lo Epicure! read more

Y Lo Epicure makes planning a meeting or conference so easy. They offer a wide selection of food that's easy for guests to tailor to their needs (even the people with food allergies were full and happy). Great to work with, very versatile - they're my go-to caterer. read more

I found Y.Lo Epicure on Yelp while looking for affordable yet great wedding reception caterers and I'm SO glad I did! I was put on to Michelle, who was fantastic to work with throughout this process! She was also great about answering emails and questions and worked with our budget to the T. She was accommodating about all our requests and we had quite a few. She came out to my place for a tasting on a Saturday which am sure not many companies would oblige to doing. The food itself was delicious! They gave us a bunch of vegetarian choices which were all very good. The serving staff that came to help us on the of, were super efficient and really nice. I would highly recommend choosing y.lo for your next event. They're great to work with and have really good food! thank you for making our wedding reception so memorable! :) read more

Y.Lo was excellent! I loved working with Michelle from there. My fiance and I wanted a specific menu representing our home states (coast and midwest) and she followed it to a T. I was very impressed with the menu she put together and the food items we tasted were delicious! She was communicative and upbeat through all of the planning and was patient with my questions and updates and need for a budget. Day of when off perfectly and everyone loved the food! I HIGHLY recommend Y.LO as a catering company for your event! read more

I coordinated with Melanie about some very, very restrictive dietary constraints and she/they handled the preparation with flying colors. Everybody (even the non-restricted guests) raved about the quality of the food. The set-up and onsite help by Zoe and Craig (?) was friendly, pro-active, adaptable, and professional. Definitely my go-to caterer for the future! read more

Keep it local, folks! Y.Lo Epicure is the best in town. Exemplary service, excellent food and exquisite events. Lisa and Dax truly pour their heart and soul into their business and it shows. Their head chef doesn't skip a beat and the rest of the crew is on their A-game at all times whether it's a quick lunch delivery or a grandiose plated wedding you can rest assured it will be executed perfectly. read more

The food is great, the team is great, and the captains are amazing. I always look forward to working with you all, and the amazing clientele. Love you all. read more

Y.Lo is the best in town. Great service, happy employees, great options for food, and the set up is always beautiful. Thanks for helping to make our event successful! read more

We hired Y. Lo Epicure to cater my Mom's 90th birthday party of about 50 people. Michelle was great to work with. She gave us multiple options to select from for the menu. They managed our rental needs and provided staff for the event. Everything went great. The food was delicious and was well presented. Katie the catering captain, was fun and personable and provided excellent service. I highly recommend Y. Lo Epicure for any event. read more

I used Y.Lo for a board dinner. I had never heard of Y.Lo before, but went ahead and gave them a shot based on the stellar Yelp reviews. I was not dissapointed. The delivery was on time, and Dax our driver was professional, and incredibly helpful. I was a bit harried, but that all melted away when Dax came in calm, cool and collected. I knew I was in good hands, and catering was one thing on my plate that I didn't have to stress about. Michelle and Lisa were very helpful through the catering process. Finally, the food was beautifully presented, and tasted great. We ordered chicken which can be dry and flavorless with catering, but all of our attendees raved at how incredible everything tasted. My husband, who is picky about his salad, couldn't stop talking about how good the salad was. I will definitely use Y.Lo again. read more

I have used Y. Lo Epicure for a variety of different events and catering needs. Not only are they consistently delicious, they also provide fantastic service no matter the size of the event. Presentation is always top-notch and so are their prices! They are great at working within a budget, but also offer a diverse menu. I highly recommend using Y. Lo for any catering needs. read more

I set up a party at our studio as a thank you to our clients. I had met Lisa previously and saw her yelp reviews..decided to give her a shot. The food was fantastic as well as the planning and presentation. So very happy we went this direction. We always aim to go above and beyond for our clients. This is why Lisa is my "go to" when it comes to catering. Thanks Lisa!! read more
