Little Miami River Catering

option of brisket and rosemary garlic chicken with our sides being green beans and mac and cheese. I didn’t hear any complaints, but the brisket and mac and cheese were especially popular. Their staff was super attentive and kind for the most part! They made sure that the bride and groom had everything we could want on our plate and seconds if we wanted them. The bartender could be a little abrasive to certain guests, but all in all I was really happy I went with them for my wedding. I would definitely recommend to other brides.

stions or wanted to change something. The food was fantastic and people particularly enjoyed the pretzel bar during cocktail hour. Pricing was very reasonable especially given our larger guest count.

All the food was delicious and almost everything was eaten. They were so east to work with and Natasha did everything to make sure the day was perfect. Would highly recommend doing a tasting with them to try a few options (everything was amazing) and booking them for your wedding!

fett line and served me my dinner! They flipped our buffet tables to our dessert table and it turned out more beautiful than I could’ve imagined! Everything they did was phenomenal and it made for a truly amazing day that would not have been possible without them!!

he tasting what we were wanting to serve and it exceeded our expectations! Vanessa allowed us to use our own alcohol and dinnerware which helped cut down on cost. Vanessa called 3 weeks prior to the wedding to go over final details and expectations of LMR. I’ve never felt so relaxed and happy with the customer service that was being offered. The day of the wedding, LMR helped us cut our cake and our bartenders even went around to light the candles for our reception (which we did not know they would do!!). The bartenders went above and beyond the day of the wedding and the staff was great. One in particular stayed until we were finished by helping us clean up and taking our trash out! If you book with LMR, not only will you get incredible food for a reasonable price but amazing staff!! We highly recommend!

erware to save on costs. She was very helpful with answering questions and discussing the plans for the day of and during our tasting. The bartender and the staff that worked the venue the day of were amazing and went above and beyond for us. They helped with packing up, serving, cleaning up and were incredibly friendly! The food was great and they have a great variety. They are worth it and I would recommend them for everyone!!

d to anyone and would use them a million times over!!

when we went for our tasting with LMR, every single item we tried was delicious. We had no trouble deciding that we wanted LMR Catering to cater our wedding, and they did a wonderful job. Vanessa was easy to work with throughout the process and the food was hot, and delicious on the big day. The buffet line attendants were more than professional and stepped in to help move the guests’ tables into their proper places after the ceremony, which we had been forced to move inside, was finished. We opted to provide our own drinks but use LMR bartending services, and the bartenders were great to work with.

mmunication the whole time!

r. We loved our food and had a great experience working with LMR. Will definitely recommend to anyone needing catering for their wedding or any other event.

ding for 180 quests and we were very pleased. I would highly recommend them. They had done graduation parties for us in the past as well and once again they did not disappoint! Molly and her team were great to work with. The bartenders were exceptional! The entire staff seemed very happy to be there and they were a pleasure.

h them!

n upon arrival to set things up and get ready for guests. Food was delicious and hot!

e test except the cheese was missing from the street corn but it didn’t change the taste. Still very delicious!

ver we made changes to the menu, guest count, and linens. We heard no complaints from any of our guests about the food and everyone loved the sundae bar! We highly recommend using LMR to cater your wedding or other event!

eir event staff was great and everything was seamless. The bartender was also great. Thank you LMR.

e day of staff could not have been more amazing!

asta bar and it was amazing. Highly recommend these guys ❤️ We were married yesterday and here I am already telling you how great they were haha

h and sent my husband and I off at the end of the night with a variety of food to make sure we had eaten, which was so thoughtful! The variety of heavy appetizers suited the event well, and everything I tried was delicious. I'd highly recommend LMR for your event.

ng day. We previously spoke to LMR at a bridal expo near the Dayton area, we reached out to a few vendors we met that day and LMR fit our budget. After initial contact with LMR I suffered the death of my grandfather in April 2022, which made it extremely hard and painful to move forward with planning my wedding which was set for July 10 2022. Once I was able to pull myself together, I reached back out to LMR, explained my circumstances and told them that we would still like to go with them for our wedding. Communication: I worked with Lindsay the event director mainly through email. I confirmed with her the date of the wedding, location, dj, vendor, every necessary detail she requested, I provided. Lindsay provided us with an updated proposal and it was more affordable, so we thought to go with them. STRIKE 1. Our first reservation with LMR was the fact that even for a guest list of around 70 people, they still made us pay for 100 plates because they had a minimum of 100 plates for Sunday weddings. STRIKE 2. During the process of finalizing the menu to see if they could accommodate for low fodmap, and gluten free options, as well as a special meal for my mother... I was absolutely GHOSTED. No contact and no response to my question from May 25th until June 7th. I was panicking thinking that they were no longer going to do my wedding leaving me in a lurch. I had my matron of honor call LMR and they told her that Lindsay had gone on vacation. That's cool, but there's no out of office? No back up to responding to her emails? How are customers who are getting really close to their event supposed to feel secure in a company that does not communicate? Food: STRIKE 3. -I did not see the display for the app/cocktail hour foods, I can only speak to the dinner items. - The Woodfired Roast Beef was reminiscent of jerky, it was the driest piece of beef I have ever had. I attempted to cut it with the plastic forks LMR provides and my knife bent. I am at the front table and I couldn't even saw through my dinner, imagine my guests? I would think they would provide better cutlery to stand up to their extremely dry beef. - The fact that they called this Caribbean Jerk Marinated Grilled Chicken is laughable! I am Caribbean, and I grew up with Jamaicans so I know what jerk chicken tastes like. Burned chicken with pineapples on top is NOT jerk chicken and is an absolute waste of money. - Unfortunately, none of the vegetarians had any of the Vegetarian Lasagna because LMR just kept it in the kitchen, so we had a WHOLE tray of flavorless Vegetarian Lasagna with crunchy uncooked vegetables. - The One Vegetarian Lasagna with No Black Pepper was ordered special for my mother since she has an ulcer and cannot have any black pepper, this too was left in the kitchen, and my mother was left without a meal for the night! - The Herbed Green Beans were fibrous, you couldn't bite through one without pulling back enough string to hem a pair of paints. I should not have been so desperate to go with LMR since they did not do a tasting of the menu. Do not listen to your venue or DJ when they say LMR is the caterer to go with, they are not, please choose someone else, ANYONE else. If we could do it all over again, we'd go with a taco truck!

r nice and funny. Would definitely hire again!

job! They were fun to have around and catered to my every need and were able to set everything up without disrupting anything or anyone.

provided us with a few options as to how this could be done. The food was incredible and we were served so quickly! They were in and out, and as a bride I didn't have to worry about them once!

hing was handled so professionally and safe! They made sure my groom and I had what I needed on the wedding day. From start to finish they were great! Thanks Molly and staff!!

indsay was so great to work with throughout the planning process and the staff at our event was so kind and helpful. LMR has beautiful and clean set up and the taste is even better.

ing to find an open one. I highly recommend the fajitas - my guests loved them. They are the best priced company in the Dayton area and have delicious food.

We were so happy to have LMR and would choose them again and again!

k with! Highly recommend!

ul linens and amazing food! Will bring your wedding dreams to life!! Highly highly recommend for any event!

which were amazing. They even offered their professional opinion that we may need more alcohol by the end of the night. I was personally grateful they did this, early into the reception, because it gave us plenty of time to find someone for a beer run. I highly recommend LMRC.

g linens got delivered the day of set up even though I corrected them on what I needed, Kosins handled fixing that thankfully. The caterers were at least 30+ minutes late to set up on the day of the wedding. No explanation or calling to let anyone know either. They also did not listen to us when we (the bride and groom) asked to start serving the guests first instead of getting our food first, since we were getting some pictures taken. They served ours first anyways so it sat on our table for 10 minutes and was cold. After the wedding, I emailed LMR to let them know of these issues, unsure if Molly or Matt were aware, and never received a response, bummer. Overall I liked the quality of the food, and the price of LMR. Just kind of felt like our event wasn't important. Other than these few issues, I overall liked the quality of food and price of the caterer.

that carved and kept things stocked up were wonderful. The kids loved the pig and after everyone had eaten, he took the time to let the kids check out the pig and talked to them about it all. They were so excited and had a great time with it. Thank you LMR for helping to make our son and new daughter's day even more special.

as very accommodating when we had a small last-minute change to our rental plan, and a somewhat larger last-minute change of chair placements due to rain.

were constantly checking on us to see if we needed anything! If you're looking for an affordable, tasty, friendly catering company, LMR is it!

ly can be a bit difficult to get ahold of sometimes. You will often wait a bit to get a response via email and often have to call & remind her of things. But, overall, she is great. She is willing to sit with you, let you try whatever you'd like, and will modify your menu until it meets your liking and your budget. I have zero complaints about LMR - staff was professional & food was just fine.

nd 2 bartenders for our wedding. The staff was great and the whole process went very well. Hands down the best wedding food according to our guests. We also had the LMR staff stick around for clean-up at our venue, and they did an excellent job since we received our deposit back.
