We catered Delish Dish for our rehearsal dinner and couldn’t be happier! The team was so easy to work with (especially Lauryn) and the food was delicious! Everything was amazing and our guests loved it! We especially loved the pears and Brie, kale apple salad, creamy Tuscan chicken, and Asian marinated pork tenderloin. The buckeyes for dessert were a huge hit as well! Truly some of the best catered food I’ve ever had! Wonderful communication and simple planning process - would highly recommend!
The Delish Dish was wonderful in every way. The quality of food and service was 10/10. The staff was very friendly and the coordinators were excellent. We had Lauryn and Jamie, they rocked it!! I loved that we could include everything even our rentals. Also what won me over from the other catering services was that they will give you the option to donate left over food to a local shelter. I would highly recommend them!
We loved having Delish Dish, and specifically Lauryn cater our wedding. We got to arrange a tasting and adjust the menu in advance. We didn't have to worry about anything on the day of our wedding!
Amazing experience from start to finish!
Whatever cuisine you have in mind for your special day, they probably have it on their massive menu! But their menu is just as deep as it is wide. The flavors are all interesting and the food is really fresh and well-made.
Communication was amazing and there were absolutely no issues day of. Definitely recommend checking them out!
WOW - that is what I have to say about Delish Dish! I could not be more thrilled we decided to go with them to cater our wedding. From the beginning, Lauren and her team were extremely professional, quick to respond, and made the planning process so easy. Their menu is extensive and I had a hard time choosing (it all looked amazing) and Lauren helped to choose items that complimented each other. We received so many compliments about our food at the wedding! I highly recommend partnering with Delish Dish!
Delish Dish was WONDERFUL to work with. I cannot recommend them enough. As a bride, I had a lot of wild ideas and Delish Dish supported every single one of them to make sure all of my dreams came true. Mavis is a hands on owner who is involved every step of the way and Lauryn was a fantastic liaison for the company who was always on top of it in responding to emails, making sure all deadlines were met, and that everything was perfect for our big day! We are so grateful for Delish Dish and all that they did for us throughout our wedding planning process!
Delish Dish was chosen for our son's rehearsal dinner. We were eager to have them for our daughter's wedding. My husband is a really good cook, and the food at the wedding was very important to him. We were excited to hear family and friends comment on the food. They raved about the brisket and chicken and the amazing strawberry salad and sides. They are extremely easy to work with, and the bartenders were able to handle a large crowd. We couldn't have been happier with our experience and the kindness Lauryn showed to us!
Delish Dish is exactly that. We had a small informal reception and Mavis suggested “dinner by the bite”. Brilliant ! So many choices of unique small bites, everyone was so pleased and full! There were very little leftovers! Had many respond that it was the best reception food they’ve had! Thank you DD!
The Delish Dish was amazing from start to finish! Their attention to detail and personal service throughout the planning process were so reassuring. They were able to accommodate a wide range of tastes, allergies, and ages. Our guests raved about the food, and those with special dietary concerns were so grateful for options that suited them.
From day 1 Delish Dish was on the ball! We had a limited budget and they were willing to work with us ,provide a delicious meal and accommodate updates to our plan. All our calls and messages were promptly answered. Highly recommend them for an event!
We had a wedding at home for our niece on Oct. 7th. Mavis and Janie were hands down the best catering company we interviewed and the food was amazing. We could have gone with one of the big name vendors but when you priced it out with the quality of the food and the customer service there was no comparison! When you attend a wedding the food is usually not what people remember but I am thrilled to say everyone commented on the quality and taste of our food that night. We did the mother board for apps and it was not only gorgeous but a huge hit! Mavis has her own preserve she makes and people are still asking me about it. The culinary team did a house visit to see how to utilize our kitchen for prep and making the risotto. The day of the wedding went off without a hitch and the servers were all over the top making sure all the details were handled. We cant comment enough about Mavis and Janie’s handling of our wedding event. I would highly recommend you give them a chance and do a tasting you will not be disappointed.
We are so so glad we chose Delish Dish for our wedding catering. The food is DELICIOUS (everyone there told us that it was the best meal they’ve had at a wedding), Lauryn (my main point of contact) was responsive, personable and so so accommodating. I was so overwhelmed and frankly confused going into the planning process and she was there every step of the way. We got their beef bourguignon, lemon rosemary chicken, mashed potatoes, roasted carrots & green beans. Several appetizers for cocktail hour and a LARGE variety of their desserts— and holy wow. Every thing was delicious. We had a few vegetarians and gluten free guests too and they made it so easy to accommodate them. We were also able to get linens, dishes, bar garnishes, everything we would need from them as well. From food quality to staff— they are the absolute best. 10/10, 5 stars, A+. You won’t regret working with them!!!
Absolutely fantastic. From the set up, meeting with the coordinator, and execution of food Delish Dish was flawless. The officiant team made my day feel stress-free and complimentary of my husband and mines vision. Perfect 10!!
This is not your average wedding caterer. Delish Dish is a kick butt team of rockstars who made our wedding even more memorable. The food alone is five stars. Seriously, everyone complimented the food. I feel like most people expect "meh" food at weddings, but Delish Dish surpassed all expectations and then some. I wish I could eat the short ribs and biscuits every day of my life. Not only was the food amazing, but the service was perfect. Lauryn, Janie, Mavis, and all of the Delish Dish squad were so fun, professional, thorough, hardworking, kind, and flexible. I changed my mind one million times and they were along for the ride with smiles on their faces. I really appreciated Lauryn's promptness, warmness, and willingness to make my wedding everything that I ever imagined. If you are reading this review, stop and go hire Delish Dish right now.
Delish Dish handled the catering for our wedding on September 9, 2023. We were very impressed with the section of food they offered and the serving options. We could not be happier with the communication, delicious food, and courteous staff. I highly recommend Delish Dish.
We could not have been happier with having The Delish Dish cater our wedding ceremony. We got so many compliments on the food! The entire process was so seamless and easy and they were able to accommodate all of our special food needs. I truly cannot recommend them enough!
We cannot recommend The Delish Dish enough!!!! The food deliciousness, quality and presentation are beyond expectations!! This is not your average run-of-the-mill catering company…they truly put their heart and soul into everything!! Mavis with her trusted staff go above and beyond from start to finish!! We worked with Hannah H. every step of the way, who was absolutely exceptional and we can’t speak highly enough of her!!! It is overwhelming for any couple first starting out down the wedding planning road. Delish Dish and Hannah made this part of planning so incredibly smooth!! The way everything was handled made us feel at ease with their promptness, professionalism yet also being real with you, making sure they touched base throughout the months leading up, answering all of our questions thoroughly and even helping us navigate through a couple of things they were not even responsible for! We have heard soooo many positive great comments on our catering and we have The Delish Dish team to thank for helping make our special day so magical!!!
I cannot say enough wonderful things about Delish Dish. We used them to cater our wedding and had such a great experience. Janie was amazing to work with--helpful, efficient, organized. Our food turned out so delicious and amazing. We received so many compliments on how good everything was. 10/10 would recommend.
We chose Delish Dish to cater our wedding and we could not be more pleased. Janie was our main point of contact. From the first day we reached out to her all the way up to the big day, her communication and professionalism was everything we could have imagined and more. She truly took a ton of stress off our shoulders and we can’t thank her enough. Oh and also the food was delicious. We are still having guests reach out to remind us of this. 10/10 would recommend!
We had the pleasure of choosing the delish dish as our vendor for our wedding and I couldn’t thank them enough! They truly were amazing from top to bottom! We’ve had so many people compliment how amazing the food was! I couldn’t recommend them enough!
We hired Delish Dish to cater our wedding and they did an absolutely amazing job! Delish Dish provided cocktail appetizers and a dinner buffet, all of our guests really enjoyed the meal! Everything was delicious. Mavis, Hannah, and team were also extremely courteous, professional, and timely in their correspondence with me and my wedding planner leading up to the day. All of Delish Dish's employees were very well organized and professional on the day of the wedding also! We really can't recommend them enough, thanks to Delish Dish for helping to make our wedding day so special!
I just had to leave a review for our these ladies because they were absolutely amazing! As the bride, I was thrilled with their delicious food and top-notch service. Everything was so personal and the communication was always super responsive. Highly recommend!
All of the food and service was fantastic! The quality of the food and presentation was absolutely gourmet quality! They were on time, not rushed and everything was the right temperature.
Everything about The Delish Dish, Mavis, Lauryn and the entire team was perfect! Highly, highly recommend! Food was both scrumptious and beautiful. The team is extremely organized, efficient and professional. Thank you!
Janie and her team were incredible to work with. They are wildly detailed and made our wedding go so smoothly. The food was 10/10 and the dessert table was so fun. We even had them make our wedding cake! The bartenders they had and attendants were the NICEST people ever. I had so many people tell us that they had their drink order memorized and as they walked up the bartender was already on it. Janie was an absolute angel and just could not recommend doing business with her team enough! 🙌♥️
Delish Dish was absolutely fantastic to work with from the time I reached out to them through our wedding day. They helped me create the menu with our first phone call, were so accommodating when scheduling the tasting, and reached out several times during the planning process to ensure that the service they were providing was correct. I really appreciated that they were present at the details meeting for my wedding so everything could be reviewed and finalized. They were clear about pricing and payments and were so kind when I had to make last minute changes to the guest count. On the day of, I had nothing to worry about. They were present, prompt, and professional. Their food is amazing and service outstanding and I would recommend their catering service to anyone and everyone!
Food was amazing! Worked out how to serve what and exactly how we wanted, plus gave us a lovely wedding gift of delicious jams
The Delish Dish catered our wedding reception. The food was a huge hit!! Every item on the menu was incredible! Our guests are still raving about it!! Mavis and her team put on a top notch dinner. The service was smooth, the presentation was impressive, and the staff was so friendly!! Highly Recommend!
Delish Dish catered our small wedding this year, September 9 2022. And it was PERFECT! I had the best experience working with the whole Delish Dish team. Especially Janie Straub, the Lead Event Coordinator. She made the whole experience seamless. Picking the food, setting up a tasting and a walk through at the venue to ensure everything went smooth.
Not only did the staff meet all expectations, the food was outstanding! We had a tasting before the big day which cleared all nerves and I was pumped to dig into the food again. 10 out of 10 for this place! I will be back for another private event but not a wedding ;) we did that once! lol
Thank you for making our day so perfect!
Delish Dish was absolutely amazing to work with for our wedding! Immediately during our initial meeting we noticed how organized and knowledgable they were. They worked with us to accommodate several food allergies to ensure all of our guests had something to eat. Our guests could not stop talking about how good the meal was. Highly recommend them for your next event!
We used the Delish Dish to cater our welcome celebration for our wedding at Rhinegeist and could not be happier! The planning process was smooth and well-communicated and when there was a staffing change leading up to our wedding, Mavis herself took things across the finish line. We are so pleased! Thank you Delish Dish!
Delish Dish catered our plated dinner at the French house and the food was great. From initial consultation to final clean-up, they we attentive, responsive and a pleasure to work with. Thanks for making the evening so special.
We loved Delish Dish, Lauyrn specifically since she helped us through all the steps! Any email that we sent with questions/ needs we had was responded to within 24 hours. The food was amazing! We ended up doing a buffet which is something I was worried about. That being said, all the food was hot and tasted fresh - just as good as at the tasting! People told us multiple times that it was the best food they have had at a wedding. I would agree :) They even remembered all the little details that I requested - indicating allergies in food to guests, extra sauce, gluten-free buns. I also want to give an extra shout-out to Lauryn because anything I asked for on the day of, even if it did not fall in her job description, and made sure that me and the husband had anything we needed. 100% recommend this group!
Delish Dish was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. My husband and I had an estate wedding with the reception being outdoors under a tent. Mavis and her team prepped our seated dinner for 200 people under the catering tent in a torrential downpour on a hot day in May.... and service and the food was still spectacular! The waitstaff and bartenders were kind and accommodating and worked their butts off so that we and our guests could enjoy the reception. Not only was the catering amazing, but the planning that went into the entire event was stress free with Delish Dish. They worked wonderfully with the event rental organization and our other vendors. I would recommend them to anyone!!
Delish Dish did an absolutely outstanding job catering our wedding. Janie helped us through every step of the way as we navigated the planning process. We wanted to have a fully vegetarian menu, and she helped us craft a menu that would be delicious and filling. Everything looked and tasted amazing!
A few reasons we booked with Delish Dish. 1. They worked with us and our budget. We gave some ideas of what we liked and they worked with us to figure out what worked budget wise, not to mention they have a variety of options and I really liked that we had a variety to choose from and 2. The food was absolutely amazing. I’m not exaggerating when I say that practically everyone we talked to thought the food was delicious and fresh. I think that was one of the big selling points for me for the day. It was a buffet taco bar but it wasn’t like every other wedding catering you get, like I said, fresh. Lauryn was the lead for our day and she was so so wonderful!!! She worked closely with our venue coordinator to make sure everything went off smoothly. She checked in with us throughout the night and all of their Delish Dish staff were wonderful and kind. I seriously can’t say enough good things about them. BOOK THEM!!! You won’t regret it, between the food and their staff they made our day that much better.
The Delish Dish did an absolutely amazing job from the start of planning to the execution to the details after our wedding. They communicated promptly, created amazing displays of delicious food for our guests to enjoy. Janie was the absolute best. She was organized, detail oriented, calm and listened to our wants and needs. She took time to price out various items from different companies for us. They also took time to listen to our cocktail ideas and created a one of a kind replica of my favorite cocktail! When any issues did arise, she was clear, concise and solution based when explaining. We highly recommend The Delish Dish and working with Janie!
Delish Dish offers the kind of food that your wedding guests DO remember! They offered so many options for meals, we had a hard time choosing. Mavis makes everything feel easy and stress-free- like she's done this a thousand times. Her and her team delivered a flawless wedding catering experience complete with cupcakes and a gorgeous cutting cake for the bride and groom. We couldn't have asked for anything better. They worked seamlessly with my wedding coordinator and venue. Delish Dish offers unique options for all parts of a wedding reception and truly sets a high standard for wedding caterers in Cincinnati.
Wow, wow, wow!!!!! Thank you to Jenna and the amazing team at The Delish Dish that helped make our wedding so wonderful. I can’t tell you how many compliments we heard about the food that evening and continue to hear in post wedding conversations. It was truly delicious and so well executed. It was a pleasure to work with this group. Thank you for the outstanding experience.
The Delish Dish was great to work with, from start to finish! Jenna was extremely attentive to our budget and food preferences and gave a lot of great options that would fit in our price range. There were SO many choices on the menu, it has a little something for everyone. Not to mention the food was very yummy. I have had guests telling me for weeks after the wedding how good it was! I could not have been happier with the way the table settings, service and meal turned out. Everything was beautiful, and exactly how my husband and I imagined it. Special thanks to Janie and her team for being extremely organized and helpful the day of! She was ready to go with every single thing we had talked about in our meetings and emails leading up to the day, and it was great to not have to worry about the tiny details. I would highly recommend using the Delish Dish for your wedding, I will definitely be re-using them for future events!
Mavis and her team catered our wedding on Saturday October 30th, and I cannot even begin to thank this this team for the wonderful job they did. So let's start from the beginning:
- They were not only VERY organized and professional from the first interaction, but they were the only catering team that actually listened to some of our requests, making the items were most excited about for our tasting and ensuring the that food allergies for our guest were taken care of.
- Upon final walk throughs and details Mavis and team went the extra mile to ensure every item on her list (from linen color, timing, etc.) was taken care of and then some. Even going as far to make drink lists for the bars so our guests were super clear on what was available.
- Day of we were blown away. Everyone told us to not worry about catering because people will only remember it if it is bad, but I am here to tell you that is not the case, they will remember it when it extraordinary. Everyone LOVED our appetizers - the mini grilled cheese shooters, glazed bacon, and gouda apricot balls. Not only were they delicious, but hot coming out (a comment we heard from MANY guest during happy hour). We also loved that they reserved some of each at our table setting to ensure we got to have them on our wedding day. In addition the main course was just AMAZING. We had an option with the gluten free chicken (with apples and onions) or the bourbon glazed beef with mashed potatoes and green beens. We had SEVERAL guests ask us if there was no shows for seconds and I have given her number out to six (6) people personally who want this meal made for the holidays. Needless to say we were delighted to take leftovers home and have not told our families that we got them so we can enjoy them ourselves (sorry not sorry). They also made the desserts - mini cheesecakes, s'more shooters, brownies, and mini apple pies - all that were GONE that night, as they were perfect fall desserts. I heard RAVE reviews about it all during the night.
- While the team was amazing with organization, details, and the food itself I need to comment on the service. Everyone was served quickly and on time - another comment that was made to us by several people.
NET: If you are having an event, Mavis and her team at Delish Dish are a no brainer. Thank you again to you and your team for making our day beyond our expectations.
- Mr. & Mrs. Greg Kennedy
We got the taco bar from Delish Dish with some apps and cupcakes for our wedding. Everything was so good! I've had family and friends tell me how much they enjoyed the tacos in particular several weeks after the event. Also, Jenna and everyone else on the Delish Dish team was super organized and helpful throughout the planning process. Couldn't have asked for a better experience!
We had the pleasure of working with Mavis, Jenna and their team for our wedding. I cannot say enough wonderful things about them! They went above and beyond for us and I cannot recommend them enough. We had quite a few dietary restrictions and they made sure everyone was taken care of. All staff was extremely helpful and attentive. You will not be disappointed!
I don’t even know where to begin on how wonderful Delish Dish is. This is not typical wedding food. It’s restaurant quality at an extremely reasonable price point. They catered both my wedding and rehearsal dinner and everything couldn’t have been more perfect. We had so many guest comments on how much they loved their meals. The service is also top notch. I sent about a million emails and they were so helpful every step of the way. I highly recommend!!!
I loved working with The Delish Dish. We had a non traditional vision and they made it come to life. I had compliments all night on how good the food was (especially their brisket)! Their customer service was fantastic. I would recommend them to everyone!
The Delish team was helpful, courteous, easy to work with, and of course delicious. They catered our wedding which included happy hour waiters with appetizers, four bars, dinner, and a tasty dessert table.
Mavis is great and her team is top notch. They did a great job with our two day wedding event and we couldn't have asked for better (vegan) food or service. Thank you, Delish Dish!
The Delish Dish did both our rehearsal dinner and our wedding day desserts and we cannot say enough good things! Everything was delicious and beyond our expectations. The staff were super helpful getting us set up and answering all of our questions and also just friendly to work with. We loved having the Delish Dish!
Jenna and everyone at The Delish Dish helped to provide an exceptional experience for our guests. They were a great help throughout the entire planning process and we've received many compliments on the food. We would choose them in a second if we had to to do it all again!
We had a brunch reception at Ault Park, and Mavis arranged a beautiful and abundant spread of brunch bites, mimosas, and desserts. The food was really tasty and quite creative. They were also very responsive to dietary restrictions and logistical details, including allowing an immunocompromised friend to get her food first--we didn't even request this, we just mentioned it in passing. Overall, very impressed and would recommend to anyone.
The food is amazing! And everyone at Delish Dish are incredibly professional and friendly. We have been complimented by everyone we talked to from the wedding about how good the food and coffee bar were. We sprang for the gourmet coffee bar and it did not disappoint!
Our original wedding was supposed to be on March 21st 2020. Covid caused us to postpone the wedding/reception until July 24th 2021. Mavis and the Delish Dish were incredibly gracious in moving the event time and working with us throughout the process. We cannot give them enough praise. If we ever have an event that requires catering in the future, we have no doubt that we will be calling them again!!
We couldn't be more grateful for Mavis and The Delish Dish. We had our rehearsal dinner at Rhinegeist Brewery and the team at Rhinegeist recommended The Delish Dish as a potential caterer. We got so many compliments about the appetizers, main courses, desserts, presentation, service, etc. from all of our guests. We appreciate all of the suggestions, accommodations, and timely communication from Mavis and her team regarding our event. I highly recommend choosing The Delish Dish for your event. I can confidently say they will do an incredible job for you and you will be just as grateful you went with Mavis and The Delish Dish!
The Delish Dish team was a pleasure to work with for my fiancé and I’s wedding reception dinner and dessert! Our guests had nothing but positive comments to share with us all night regarding the service, professionalism, presentation, and food.
Everything about my experience with The Delish Dish was perfect. They were happy to help me stay on budget and recommend things that people would like without breaking the bank. Their food was so delicious! Jenna was my main contact for the event and she was always quick with communication. I loved that they provided dinner and dessert. Our cake was perfect and it incorporated their line of delicious homemade jams. I would highly recommend them to anyone in the Cincinnati/ northern KY area. The brisket and strawberry salad were my absolute favorite.
Mavis and The Delish Dish team were just wonderful. My daughter’s wedding was just perfect and everything was superb. From start to finish, Mavis was very responsive to our needs and provided an exceptional event. Highly recommend!
WORTH EVERY PENNY! The most incredible food and an even more wonderful staff! The food was so good that people were taking business cards and have been texting me non stop about how delicious everything was. A must have for your wedding!!
We used Delish Dish for our wedding, and they were really excellent! They were very professional and great at responding promptly to communicating during the planning process. Everything turned out beautiful and the food was delicious! I’m so grateful for their hard work to make our wedding so wonderful! I would recommend them to anyone getting married.
The Delish Dish team was amazing! They were professional, friendly and approachable. They took care of not only the food (which looked and more importantly tasted great - we got so many compliments!), but also dealing with all of the rentals. They handled any questions I had or changes I wanted to make without making me feel like I was bothering them. From the initial contact to the final cleanup after the wedding, it was such a pleasure to work with Mavis and her team!
Wow - Delish Dish is amazing. We had our wedding in our home in the woods and Delish Dish came to our house with a bar, a menu that we both created (delicious!), and all of the rentals. Super nice team, super helpful, everything went according to plan and turned out even more magical than we imagined. Jenna is an amazing and talented ceremony manager/coordinator - she had an "I can make it happen" attitude and we were so grateful to have her help. They even left us with a homemade gift - which, unsurprisingly, was absolutely delicious.
In summary : The Delish Dish is awesome, hire them to make magic!
Mavis and her team catered our wedding this year at Ault Park, and the food was amazing! Everyone was very impressed with their meal, and our guests felt very safe with all the precautions that were followed due to COVID. Everything went so smoothly, and when we met with Mavis for the tasting before the wedding she made sure that everything would be perfect for our special day. I 100% recommend choosing them for your wedding. We could not have been happier with our decision!
