We have Cincinnati Catering to thank for keeping our original wedding date. Thanks to their guidance, even in unprecedented times, they had a plan and were eager to resume catering events safely. They were very responsive, and helped us decide...
to go ahead with our plans at a critical time. After hesitating, we ordered our wedding invites the same day that we spoke with them to confirm the details. We felt assured we could still have the wedding of our dreams. We stuck with a buffet, and we had servers who wore masks and filled each guests plate "cafeteria style." The food was fabulous and the servers were great. One server even appached us at the sweetheart table as we finished eating, to ensure everything was good, and ask if we wanted seconds. We couldn't be more happy with our choice of Cincinnati Catering, and would advise any couple thinking of using them to as well.
Can't scream loud enough for Cincinnati Catering! I was nervous as they were on the low end of pricing. The "you get what you pay for" does not ring true here. BOOK THEM! My guests (all 113) loved the food. We had so many compliments on the sta...
ff and the food it was unreal. Rarely do guests walk away talking about the quality of the food, it's usually the other way around. Everything was perfect. We selected the Couples Choice package. We also used the dessert service. Cincinnati Catering was so accommodating to my needs and budget. I had covid late last year and was struggling with taste/smell (still am lol). They were more than accommodating to schedule and reschedule a tasting. 5 star service rating does not do them justice! Will consider them for every event in the future.
This team was amazing from start to finish! The tasting was so accommodating and the service on the actual day was five star. Such kind people. Food was delicious and hot! Everyone said it was great. Thank you so much!
We used Cincinnati Catering for our wedding food and desserts. Hands down the BEST experience in the entire process of wedding planning. From the beginning they made working with them easy and seamless. They were willing to work with me on what...
I was wanting for food, gave me great ideas and even suggested other helpful items for the other parts of the wedding. I was at a loss for figuring out desserts because my husband doesn't like cake. They had so many options and even had desserts at the tasting. The tasting was hands down the best one we went too. The food was delicious and the best part... the food was just as amazing at the wedding. Almost everyone that was at the wedding told us or our parents how great the food was and it was the best "wedding" food they have ever had.
I highly recommend Cincinnati Catering for your wedding catering and even desserts!!
We used Cincinnati Catering for our December 4th wedding and could not be more pleased with how everything went! From the planning process all the way up to cutting our cake, Cincinnati Catering's staff was a huge asset to us. Brad and Shannon ...
were responsive to all of our questions leading up to the event and helped us make some last minute adjustments to our menu to accommodate guests who are vegan and gluten-free. Shannon seemed very knowledgable when it came to Celiac and helping us find alternative options that allowed all of our guests to enjoy dinner comfortably. Their day-of service staff was so professional and kind the entire evening - even taking time to check in with our day-of coordinator periodically to see if there was anything they could assist her with! Outside of the staff, all of our food was delicious and we could not have asked for a better group to help us plan our day.
Brad and Shannon recently catered our wedding reception and I can't say enough great things! The food was amazing, and they were very careful to provide food for our guests, many of whom were vegetarian, gluten free, vegan, etc! I did not have ...
to worry about my guests, and the food options that they had were so good rather than a bland serving of veggies. They also made our wedding cake as well as all the assorted desserts, and they were all so delicious. Part of their contract is that they will provide us with our same cake on our 1 year anniversary, and I can't wait to have that cake again! Thanks Brad and Shannon.
The food was amazing. We had Italian and our guests made so many compliments as there was something for everyone! They were super flexible with us in a crisis and we would book again in a heart beat!
Cincinnati catering made everything so easy. And they didn’t even bat an eye when we told them we wanted to do breakfast for dinner for about 200 people. We got so many compliments on the food, and there was barely any left over. Definitely rec...
ommend!
Cincinnati Catering was great at our event! They were so helpful in the set up process, but also kept an eye on us as the bride and groom asking if we needed anything or refills throughout the night. In addition, they balance quality food with ...

Amazing food, very nice staff. Family and guests were talking about the food weeks after the wedding !! Would absolutely recommend
Great service and awesome food! We used Cincinnati Catering as our cater for our wedding reception. We ordered appetizers and our main entrees from them and everything was delicious! Everyone loved the food and staff was very friendly throughou...

Cincinnati Catering was great to work with! The food was delicious and all of our guests loved it. We had some leftover chicken that became my lunch and dinner for a few days after the event and I was delighted by every single one of those me...
als. They were also able to work with a few of our guests who had dietary restrictions, which was greatly appreciated. You can tell they take a lot of pride in their business, and that shows up in the product you receive. You'll be happy you decided to work with them!
We had the best experience having Cincinnati Catering for my wedding! Shannon and Brad were so detail oriented and very prompt to all my emails. Their prices are very affordable and the food is quite delicious. I’ve been to a lot of weddings ov...
er the last couple years and felt Cincinnati Catering’s food surpassed the taste of other so many other caterers that were a lot more expensive. Also, the process of the catering team setting up and serving was so seamless and no instruction needed, they had everything covered. The two buffet servers were so helpful and friendly. I can’t recommend Cincinnati Catering enough!!!
Brad, Shannon, and the entire team were amazing!! People still talk about how delicious the food was, and the wedding was weeks ago now! The food was absolutely outstanding! The service and kindness of the staff was also amazing! They were all...
so helpful, and jumped right in wherever they were needed! It is one thing to prepare a tasting for a few people and it taste great - but we had 450 guests - and it was still amazing!! They were top notch in quality, service, and price!
Brad and Shannon run a great business here. They personalized everything to match our theme and desires. Everything was perfect! From the every member on the staff, to the service and what's provided. We went with the full service of desserts, ...
mini cake, bartending, and of course the catering! Brad, thank you for being there at our wedding. You are always willing to go above and beyond!
Cincinnati catering is the perfect catering choice for your wedding!! They have a massive menu of options and price points to help any bride and groom find the perfect choices, all while staying in budget. Shannon and Brian where amazing to wo...
rk with. Our wedding was September 2020 so for months we weren't sure whether Covid restrictions would allow us to have our event. Every step of the way Cincinnati Catering was there to help us navigate this; they quickly and easily answered all of our questions which took a huge weight off our shoulders. Shannon even reached out when she had a concern about our menu and helped us navigate a plan to get the freshest and best food out to our guests. On our wedding day they were prompt, professional, and quick; all while serving hot fresh food. I would highly recommend Cincinnati catering to any bride or groom! Also they have a Gold Star Chili Menu which our guests loved! Bride and Groom look no further for your caterers!
We had the pleasure of working with Brad and his team from Cincinnati Catering for my daughter's wedding on September 5, 2020. Leading up to the event, Brad's communication, advice, and kindness gave me great confidence in having picked Cinci...
nnati Catering for our 200 guest, seated service Wedding Reception that took place outside, on family land. In spite of Covid concerns and regulations, Cincinnati Catering was able to provide, not only wonderful food, but exceptional service and professionalism that took a huge stress off "my plate" on the day of the event. I would highly recommend Brad and his team from Cincinnati Catering, and will use them again, myself, for other events in the future. Cincinnati Catering was truly a blessing to me.
I used Cincinnati Catering for my recent 9/26/2020 wedding. My experience was an awesome experience. The staff was professional and very nice. Brad was patience and helped me with all questions the whole way through. The food tasting was also...
great and there was plenty of food for family members that may have wanted help out with choices. The set up was elegant and food was hot and delicious with many options to choose from. I recommend Cincinnati catering for any event.
We used Cincinnati Catering for our wedding in August 2020, aka covid times. They were great at helping us navigate the changing requirements and making sure everyone stayed safe. We got their breakfast menu, and it was superb. They cooked the ...
bacon just right, which as an avid bacon lover is a huge compliment. Their dessert was fantastic too, and loved the convenience of being able to get all our food for the night from one place.
There is no wonder why Cincinnati Catering has been in business for 85 years! We used their catering and cake services for our wedding in September and couldn't be more pleased with how the cake and food turned out! We met with Brad for a consu...
ltation where we were able to see and taste the food. That was such a pleasant experience and made the food/cake selection very hard because everything was delicious and yet very easy because how accommodating. We worked with many professional and friendly people in the planning process. When it came to the day of our wedding we were so happy with the caterers and their services... they did amazing! We would recommend Cincinnati Catering to anyone!
We hired Cincinnati catering for our wedding 8/31/19. Brad and his team did not disappoint! We barely had any leftovers! The food was delicious and the people of the catering team made us feel so welcome and treated us like their own family. My...
husband and I went back into a room after we got married to spend some time together before having to be introduced and before entering that room we passed by the caterers setting up and they all welcomed us with a big “congratulations!” They were all wonderful! Brad and his team kept in complete contact the entire time after we booked and I could not imagine a more fitting caterer for us for our wedding day. I highly recommend them! Thank you brad & Cincinnati catering!
Cant say enough good things about this company from start to finish! The entire process was effortless and everything turned out perfect. The food was amazing, the guest couldn't say enough about it! The staff was sooo friendly! A miscommunicat...
ion led to someone expecting food to be served a half hour early, and they got it ready and started early! They were so polite about the situation, especially considering it was a total miscommunication on our part and they weren't due to be ready for another half hour! One of the caters even opened the door as guest went in and out, they really went above and beyond!
When my husband and I first got engaged my mom told me that one of the most important things at the wedding would be the food and she was completely right. We had so many guests ask who we used for catering and even our pickiest family and frie...
nds loved the food. The sweet glazed chicken was my favorite but everything was super delicious! We used them for our cake as well and Barb was so helpful with listening and helping me decide what designs for the cake would be best. My grandpa thought the cake was fake because it looked so good. The cake and naked cakes were absolutely delicious as they were beautiful! Brad and his crew were so friendly and helpful! All of the staff were very friendly at the wedding and made our day even more special. I highly recommend them and hope I will be able to attend another event where they are catering because the food is so good. Thank you so much!
Our food was great at both our rehearsal and reception thanks to Brad and his team. We did hit a few bumps leading up to the wedding when it came to some of the details, but all were worked out and everything ran smoothly. Brad and his team ar...

. Highly recommend.
We absolutely loved everything in our experience with Cincinnati Catering. We had a luau type menu and our tasting was great. Brad was amazing, knew his information, and answered any question we threw at him. I was even more excited when at ...
our wedding, the food tasted just as good as it did at our tasting! (Sometimes, you just don't know). Our guests loved it, two weeks later and I'm still getting rave reviews. Brad and the staff were great, they were there when you needed them and went unnoticed when you didn't. I arranged my table linens through them as well, everything with that was great. Shannon at the office was amazing about answering any questions, following up when needed, going over contracts and final counts and everything. The overall team at Cincinnati Catering is amazing and I would highly recommend them and use them again!
We chose Cincinnati catering for our wedding and could not have been happier with that choice. They made it very easy to set up a tasting and help us choose the right foods for our wedding. They arrived to the venue on time, setup the buffet li...
ne, set the table placements, and cleaned up at the end of the night without any major problems. The food was fantastic too for the price, a month later and we're still receiving glowing reviews from our friends and family; we chose to go with the chicken marsala, salmon, and carving station roast beef for our entrees. There was one minor hiccup that occurred, which is the reason I bumped the professionalism down to a 4.5 (didn't know what category that fit best in). Right as dinner was starting they had run out of both Yuengling and Bud Light, which were two of the most requested beers...but they were also quick to head to a local store to get replacements and solve the issue, so you can't dock them too much there; their excellent flexibility really came through there. We also heard from many people how friendly and great the bartending staff was, so a kudos to them as well. Overall I would highly recommend Cincinnati Catering for any big event you may be planning. They are a pleasure to work with, and despite the minor setback we experienced, they were more than willing to go out of their way to solve it. We would choose them again in a heartbeat!
We knew from the moment we tasted the food that Cincinnati Catering would be catering our wedding. The food was delicious, and the pricing was amazing for the quality. Communication was excellent, and on the day of the wedding, everything went ...
perfectly. The food was on time, hot, and delicious, and the service was fantastic. We would highly recommend Cincinnati Catering to other couples looking for a caterer.
Food was exceptional! Very professional and quick responding business/staff. Great value compared to others out there. Highly recommend!
