GRAD PARTY CATERING

Google Review: We used Wendi’s catering for our son and his friends’ high school graduation party. We wanted an elevated tailgate feel and Wendi and her team more than delivered! The food was excellent. From the pulled meats and chicken tenders to the Mac & cheese and soft pretzels - it was all delicious. When the football team makes several trips back to the food table, you know you’ve chosen the right catering company! Also, Wendi’s staff is fantastic. Dave and Andrew staffed our party and could not have been more helpful. We’re so grateful to have found Wendi and her team. They helped make the day successful and easy.

Google Review: Wendi’s catered our graduation banquet. The roast beef, potatoes, and green beans were fantastic. The prices were very reasonable and Wendi was so kind and easy to work with. Her staff delivered the food on time and everything was hot (or cold, in the case of the salad). Everyone gobbled up the desserts. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience!

COLLEGE GRADUATION PARTY CATERING

Google Review: Wendi was so kind and nice and wanted the best for my event! She really worked with me when I was planning my master's program graduation event for my class of 100 people on 5/5/24. We had a tight budget, and she worked with me to get what I wanted for my event while staying within budget. They delivered the food, on time, hot, well covered, and her staff was so kind and helpful. The food was amazing, from the green beans to the roast beef, but the potatoes were absolutely my favorite! I will absolutely recommend her for anything moving forward! You will get the best food with the greatest staff for any event you are planning!

CONFERENCE CATERING CLIENT

/

Google Review:
I honestly don't know where to begin with writing this review. I am beyond grateful for the generosity, caliber of service, and food provided by Wendi's Kitchen. On a Sunday evening, a week prior to the conference I helped to host, our original caterer faced a literal life or death situation. I blindly contacted Wendi's Kitchen (having had no prior knowledge of them). Being that it was a Sunday evening, and short notice for the event I didn't know IF or WHEN I would hear back from them. Not to mention whether or not they would be available. Wendi (the owner herself) surprisingly contacted me within the hour - Which was not her norm given the day and time. Needless to say, we clicked instantly. From beginning to end (talking with Wendi to the actual delivery), my team and I were beyond amazed!!! There are honestly no words to fully express our appreciation and gratitude for this company!!!

REHEARSAL DINNER CATERING

Google Review: Wendi catered my son and his wife's rehearsal dinner on May 12,2016. There was at least 60 people present and there was more than enough food for everyone. Myself, I say the food was awesome and I think the others present had my same opinion. The price was just as awesome as the food. Very fair. Just an FYI, Wendi catered the wedding reception the very next day for approximately 100 people. It is my opinion that she is very organized and I would recommend her for any event.

I have known and been recommending Wendi to friends and acquaintances for years with much fan fair. Throughout that time, she has always gone above and beyond to exceed her client’s expectations. She never turns down a challenge. For example, it was finally time for her to perform at my own wedding, but our venue had no kitchen, with 287 people to feed.
She pulled it off and everyone raved about the food making it all a memorable success. I am her biggest fan!!
