Grateful Palate Catering & Events

We had the most amazing wedding! Everything was flawless! The venue is absolutely beautiful, the staff was attentive and kind. We had the ceremony and cocktail hour in the beautiful balcony, the appetizers were very tasty with sophisticated presentation. The waiters kept bringing it out, our guests loved it! We also had an outdoor bar during the cocktail hour which was practical and allowed guests to enjoy their time outdoors without the need to come inside for drinks. Tatiana was great to work with! She was laid back and never added to the stress we were already in during the planing stages. The entrees were amazing, even better than when we did the tasting! We received a ton of compliments, our guests were blown away!

The Grateful Palate was truly our saving grace! Our Wedding was re-scheduled, and then cancelled by our venue at the last minute. Leslie put together our Wedding in 48 hours and it was absolutely INCREDIBLE. The venue is gorgeous, the view is unbelievable, and the food was OUTSTANDING! She helped us with every detail and made sure nothing was left out. We are so thankful they were recommended to us. They truly made our Wedding Day dreams come true!

The first word that comes to mind is WOW! When searching for a venue for our 30th wedding anniversary, my husband and I never imagined we could afford to have it in such a beautiful place. However, the moment we found their website, we knew that the Grateful Palate was the only place for our event. From our first telephone conversation to planning our sunset vow renewal ceremony on the dock to preparing our menu to our preferences with everyone's food allergies in mind, Leslie was the consummate professional. She had the ability to put her my husband and me at ease to the point that we felt like she was family. Leslie was able to visualize and execute what we wanted that night down to the smallest details while staying within our budget. Working with Leslie and the chef, we were able to create a "Floribbean" menu for our guests since so many of them were coming from out of town. Additionally, Leslie worked with our vendors so that we didn't have to concern ourselves with the minutiae that can bog you down when planning such an event. We even got to meet the wait staff, bartender and chef a few days before our anniversary and they were as kind and professional as Leslie. They prepared and served quite the feast that night! Since we had a cocktail hour for our guests before we arrived, they saved and served us hors d'oeuvres after our ceremony. Everything was scrumptious! The dinner and desserts were magnificent and our cake was divine! My guests are still raving about the venue, the food, and the service. Thomas and I will never forget that special night that was curated to perfection just for us by Leslie and everyone at the Grateful Palate. There are no words to express the gratitude that will forever be in our hearts for Leslie and her staff at the Grateful Palate.

We had our wedding reception at Grateful Palate on 1/13/18 and it was the BEST! I can't say enough about how great this venue is! Our final guest count was 70, which fit perfectly in the venue with a dance floor. Leslie was our point of contact and she was very accommodating throughout the planning process. Chef Brian was amazing. He listened to our concerns during our food tasting regarding our guests' allergies (seafood, gluten, etc.) and ensured us that they would be able to enjoy their meals. We had sit down dinner so there were several servers waiting on our tables throughout the night. All of them were great, but Tim was AWESOME. He was in charge of our sweetheart table and another table of 8 (immediate family) and he was on top of it all night. He even followed me out on the dance floor to make sure my glass was always full. He also acted quickly and professionally when two glasses broke out on the dance floor, and had them cleaned up without interrupting the fun. I also loved that we were able to open up all of the sliding doors and enjoy the view of the intracoastal and have an indoor/outdoor feel. If you are having a smaller wedding reception, I would definitely recommend having it here!
