We had our reception here for our October wedding. Marchiori catering was a dream to work with! Tony, Katy and Bill went above and beyond to help make our day so special. My husband had unique food and drink requests that were executed perfectly. Our friends and family are still raving about the food! Even our vendors commented on how professional and great everyone was to work with. There is a beautiful courtyard that we had our happy hour in and the inside venue looked amazing. They set up our all our decorations exactly how we requested, they took care of everything! Tony's many years in the business definitely helped make the planning easy and his suggestions were extremely helpful! Great food, great staff, just an all around amazing vendor!

Tony Marchiori went above and beyond to make my dream wedding a reality. I got married 2 months ago and people are still talking about his food! The staff was extremely friendly to all our 300 guest and the food was out of this world. He was so easy to work with even with my crazy demands! Everything went perfectly, Each course, the sweet table! People were raving about it all! If you are looking for a venue in the metro Detroit area, Marchiori catering is the place to go! They were the reason my wedding was the perfect day, to know everyone talks about the food and atmosphere of your wedding even months after just makes it known it was because of the company we chose!

Working with Tony was great! He was always quick to respond and very helpful. The food was OUTSTANDING. We didn't have a single complaint about our food our service.I must have had 10 people tell me it was the best wedding food they have ever had. We continue to order party trays from them now because we love their food so much!

Any questions?
We had plated meals at our off site wedding, and everything was absolutely amazing! We are still receiving compliments on the food. The timing of the dishes was perfect, the quality was great, and they were so easy and flexible to work with. The staff was professional and very helpful, they definitely worked super hard that day. The price is great for the food and the drinks, and we liked that they didn't charge a cake cutting or plating fee. They also provided kids meals, vegan, and gluten free options with no problems. The recipients with allergies were very thankful that they were thought of and still had a really good meal! We would definitely use them again and recommend to anyone!

Our best advertising comes from our customers. Thanks for spreading the word! We love what we do!
Working with Tony Marchiori was an absolute pleasure. He was thoughtful in our considerations and created a unique and tasty menu for our non-traditional strolling dinner. He even made sure we had vegan options for our family. The staff was excellent as well, leaving no trace!
Definitely recommend the crab cakes and the coconut shrimp. WINNERS!

One of the benefits of a family owned and operated business is that we individualize to meet the unique needs of each client. We are happy to hear that we did just that!
I had my wedding at Packard Proving Grounds and as a result, buffet style was the only option. A friend had recommend this company and after our taste test we were so impressed we booked them right then. We had a wedding of 230 people and when cooking for a group that large you never know how the food will be, but it was delicious. I am still getting compliments from family members and friends about how good the food was and how many options there were. Highly recommend!

every wedding one to remember!
We used Marchiori Catering through Asumption in St. Clair Shores because they are constantly wonderful and the food was AMAZING! They provided our table linens, plates, napkins and silverware and allowed us to use their knife to cut our wedding cake. The staff that came to help were wonderful they even helped set up our tables- put linens on the tables and helped put the centerpieces and favors out!

Thanks for the wonderful review. You can never have too many compliments. Glad to know we are maintaining the Marchiori tradition of excellence!
Marchiori Catering recently catered our daughter's wedding at the Belle Isle Casino. Wow! They are awesome. Working with Tony and Katy throughout this process was smooth and they were always quick to call back and email with answers to our questions. The food was delicious and I cannot say enough about their staff and the presentation/decor. I would highly recommend them and we plan on using them again! Thank you Marchiori's!
Response from the Vendor on 01/16/2021
We cater at Belle Isle often and do our best to make every event grand!
"Hands down the best wedding food I've had"...this is the compliment I received all evening and still to this day. Tony was so easy to work with and a true pleasure to be around. He and his staff went above and beyond from the food to the service. I did a strolling pod style dinner and the presentation of the food was amazing. I would use Marchiori catering again without question; a real family feel...Thank you making our day perfection!

We strive for perfection! Glad we hit the mark with your wedding!
Food offered by the caterer is of of appropriate quality and the general catering staff is good. However, Tony marchiori's manner is not. He ran the event off schedule and was crass with the other vendors.

Unfortunately this comment is inaccurate and leaves out some key details. Simply put our staff will always put the needs of guests above the demands of vendors. Check out our other reviews.
Marchiori Catering is the house caterer for the Assumption Greek Cultural Center which is where our reception was held.
The place is unique in that it is in the middle of a neighborhood and was very convenient for our reception. In addition, we had the whole place to ourselves!
The huge lobby was where our appetizers were served. Everyone commented on how wonderful the appetizers were! The bar is out there as well so all could enjoy cocktails too. They had our signature drink placed in a huge glass decanter so it was easy for the bartenders to serve anyone that wanted to try the cocktail. They kept the doors to the ballroom closed until it was time for the guests to start seating for dinner.
Once inside the ballroom, we saw it had been decorated gorgeously. They provided the table linens, chair covers, a mirror and votives for the tables. In addition Tony Marchiori sat down with us and helped us plan the floor plan down to where the photo booth and cake and gift tables would be. We used table names instead of table numbers and Tony explained the best way to pull this off. They also provided the easels to display the seating chart and our engagement photo.
Dinner itself was fantastic. The comments that we got from our guests was that this was the best wedding food they had ever had! The only small problem was that most folks were still a bit full from eating all the great appetizers when dinner was served.
All in all we were very pleased with the service that Marchiori Catering provided and will definitely consider using them for any other events we have.
If you are getting married in the Grosse Pointe/St Claire Shores area, you should at least meet with Tony Marchiori. We called him "The Bride Whisperer" for a reason. He put our minds at ease and made this process a lot easier for us. His prices were a great value for all that we got, and he (or an assistant) was always available by email if I had any nagging questions. I don't plan on getting married again, but if I were in need of a caterer for a big party, you bet Marchiori would be the first name on my list.
The day before the wedding we dropped off all of our supplies, including two cupcake stands my sister had painted. Turns out the paint was still giving off fumes that evening (stinking up his office), so he called me to warn me that they would probably do a number on the taste of my cupcakes. I got the message a bit late, but the last thing you want to hear hours less than 24 hours before your wedding is that there is a problem, so I hoped and prayed this would be an easy thing to fix. And it was. When I called him the next day he said he had a few things he could-no worries. And he just took care of it. He got my baker to bring a stand and all was well. He really made my morning.
Last but not least, the big day: Everything looked WONDERFUL, and the food was great! I received multiple compliments from our guests on how much they enjoyed the appetizers, especially.
And one more thing: when we arrived for our grand entrance we were STARVING but knew that once we were seated the apps would go away and dinner would be served. Tony had us put together a quick plate and had someone bring it out to our table so we could nibble while we waited for dinner to be served. Saved. Our. Lives.

Thanks for the new nickname - might have to add it to my business cards! It's always a pleasure to make brides and grooms happy!
#1, the food has always been above any other hall I have been to in the past.
#2, the room gave us opportunity to make it what I had always imagined it to be. It was more than enough room for our 300 guests and plenty of room to dance as well ;)
#3, the service was more than I ever expected and hoped for.
The food was delicious, the service was wonderful, and the space was very acomodating!
we loved the fact that we were the only wedding there. Anthony Marchiori was extremely accomodating to all our wishes and the food was out of this world!
