Vestals Catering

t never showed up (required by vestals because we were serving alcohol). We also paid for a “Venue Manager” who ended up leaving one hour after the venue was made available to us on our wedding day; come to find out, that individual left to help assist with another venue vestals had booked that day. The only positive to come out of this situation was the catering staff, they greeted everyone with a smile and were very personable. After discussing this with the venue director she agreed to reimburse us for all the things (as listed above) that went wrong with our wedding day experience. Upon further discussion she would write us a check in the amount we agreed upon; she promised that both, the bride and grooms family would receive a Christmas Eve dinner and she promised to cater another event for the brides family, grooms family and the wedding party. We were more than pleased with this offer; however, the services they offered fell through once again. We had to call two months later regarding our check; only to find out they never sent it. They also never ended up sending us our dinners. After a brief discussion with the venue director I asked if it would be possible to write another check for the services she promised us above and be done with this. She explained that she wouldn’t be able to make that happen. Be prepared to be disappointed with lackluster experience when using this venue/catering company. The bride and I were incredibly disappointed to say the least.

our tasting experiences every time. They handled everything for us including linens, flatware and glassware, cake and dessert stands, and mixers and supplies for the bar. Our appetizers were nothing short of incredible and were a fan favorite for our guests. Our less than stellar rating unfortunately comes to the reception dinner. The staff was incredible throughout the night, but the meals fell short in a few ways. A lot of the meals came out quite cold (as mentioned by many of the guests and family). Our mushroom ravioli meal came out with the incorrect sauce, and the shrimp scampi came out wrong without any pasta. When mentioning the shrimp scampi issue with the manager on site that day, our planner was told it was my fault for not specifying pasta on the order given to them (even though in the multiple tasting experiences with Jourdan and Tori the shrimp scampi was served correctly). We were later told by the company that the pasta was forgotten and not loaded on the trucks on our wedding day. For the most part our experience with Vestals was great, but the reception dinner results were quite a letdown that day.

at you are having.

't hesitate to book Vestals!

aff was extremely friendly, and they left our home spotless when they left. Beverly followed the Bride and Groom around all evening to make sure our glasses were full and we were getting a chance to eat the food. She did so without asking and we adore her for it! The bartender was super fun and served some awesome drinks. The portions were huge and no one left hungry! Thank you so much for making our evening so perfect!

we did our grand exit. They even made sure my parents were always taken care of with food and drinks!! They were absolutely the most perfect choice for us!

showers, and let me tell you... Everyone was OBSESSED. Two months later, people are still bringing up how yummy everything was and I crave their food weekly. I barely even had any food at our wedding, but Vestals boxed up a few big boxes of each dish for us to take to our hotel after and no joke, the first thing we did when we got there was devour all the extras that they had given us. Beyond their impeccable food, everyone at Vestals was so kind to us. Alex helped us in regards to tastings, menus, and getting everything sorted out. She was so kind, understanding, and helpful when all of our wedding plans were put to a halt because of COVID-19, but helped us come up with so many different options in order to accommodate with everything going on. The day of team was incredible as well. All the servers and bartenders were phenomenal, and Beverly (the head lady and I think maybe chef of the night) was the sweetest woman I've ever met. I've never felt so cared for and tended to in my life. Vestals is 20/10 all around, and you absolutely will not regret hiring them.

edding season. We will not forget the experience we had with the Vestals staff.

within our budget and was completely transparent with us. Although our wedding reception did not look like we had originally planned, July 11th was the best day of our lives and we can thank the Vestals team for helping make that happen. Also not to mention, the food was DELICIOUS! 11/10 would recommend! Thank you!

e pandemic and they took all of the proper precautions for a coronavirus-free wedding . They were quick to respond, professional, and very friendly. We were able to use them for both our rehearsal dinner at the Bingham House and for our wedding at a separate location. We absolutely recommend them for your wedding!

ls. First, they were recommended to me by a good friend who is also a top event architect/coordinator in Dallas. From the beginning, Aubrey made everything so easy, and stress free. She met me at the venue and we were in touch several times before the wedding. The dinner was amazing!! The food was delicious, the presentation was perfect, and the service could not have been better! My daughter must eat gluten and dairy free, and a lot of caterers do not want to accommodate that. Vestals did a great job on the dietary restrictions for the menu! The servers were so professional and kept all the guests happy. My husband and I are very thankful we found Vestals, and we highly recommend them!

aught me at family gatherings, and they're always a hit. I would highly recommend them for any of your catering needs!

Their staff is exceptionally friendly and knowledgeable, their pricing is competitive in the market and their food is exceptional. They always go above and beyond!

had a family style dinner at our wedding and all of the food came out smoothly and tasted great! I would highly recommend them to anyone, and would use them in the future for any catering needs. Truly awesome!

rovided. They were extremely responsive responding to messages. I was a little nervous, because the sales person we worked with for our tasting left before our wedding but it was a seamless transition to the new associate and they still got everything we ordered correct. I am vegetarian and my husband loves steak, so our menu was a little more challenging than most. Vestals was extremely accommodating and offered some delicious vegetarian options. They also accommodated other dietary restrictions. I had some very specific requests as to timing and the food and Vestals accommodated everything. The food was so delicious and felt more elevated than traditional wedding food. We did a buffet and had plenty of food the whole night. When I've seen guests in the months after our wedding I swear one of everyone's first comments is that it was the best food they've ever had at a wedding. To me that is a huge win because normally people do not remember the wedding food. They were very friendly in all our conversations leading-up to the wedding. And the staff actually at the event provided very high customer service. The bartenders were quick, but made our signature cocktails perfectly. They plated a beautiful meal for us to eat before entering the reception and even surprised us with leftovers at the end of the night which we really enjoyed at the hotel afterwards. At one point during the night, the lead team member even waited outside the bathroom to bring me my favorite drink! Overall exceptional service and quality of food. I highly recommend Vestals for a wedding and any other event!

n email or call back another time. But when we called Vestals, we had a personal phone call with the owner, Jordan, who took time out of his drive home after work to speak with us about our wedding and catering dreams. We knew from this one phone call that we had found our caterer! At our first meeting and tasting, we enjoyed a delicious sampling of all their foods and desserts. We sat with our family, Jordan, and his administrative staff, who helped us create the perfect menu for our special day. Jordan quickly realized that we wanted our wedding meal to feel like a cozy family dinner and helped us set the tone for our whole reception! The staff was so easy to work with and were quick to answer any and all questions we had along the way. The day of, all of the food was gorgeously displayed and served. All of the staff was well-trained, polite, and incredibly helpful— my husband and I were served so well the whole evening! And let me tell you— the food was INCREDIBLE! We are still receiving raving reviews to this day! Our guests had heaping piles of food, and some even got seconds! We went with the buffet option and were so thrilled with our choices! The food was fresh, hot, and stunning! We can’t recommend Vestels enough— you will be so happy if you go with Vestels! We can’t thank them enough for all they did to make our day absolutely perfect!

so patient with me and offering advice when I asked for it. I will say the smoked salmon was a BIG hit. I wanted to add it as an entrée but I was trying to stay on budget and so just had it during the cocktail hour. It was GONE! My Dad didn’t even get any!! Everything was delicious! Highly recommend Vestals as their food and staff are exceptional!

la made sure I never needed a thing all day. She made sure my family was catered to with cockails and hors d'oeuvres in between family photos, setting up private sips and bites for my husband and I in the bridal suite during cocktail hour, and boxing up some fun food and sweets for after the party! Food was so so important to us so we went all out: passed apps at cocktail hour along with a beautiful cheese and charcuterie display, then for dinner we had a salad that was pre-set at each table setting, then out came a beef tenderloin filet with potatoes and beautiful spring vegetables. Of course that wasn't enough, so they also brought out family-style platters of their spice-rubbed grilled chicken with peaches and TWO different kinds of mac n' cheese (my favorite vs my husband's favorite). We had a huge display of miniature desserts and then ended the night with a fiesta display of breakfast tacos, tamales, and Mexican pastries, candies, and sodas. The service was phenomenal! Our venue did not allow for any cooking in their prep kitchen, so Vestals build a kitchen outside. Of course it was raining and extremely windy on our wedding day, but they handled it like the complete professionals that they are and I had no idea until after when I was asking all the behind-the-scenes questions! Oh! And speaking of behind-the-scenes.. It's also worth mentioning that my mother completely forgot to bring our bar mixers that she was responsible for bringing, and Fabiola handled the entire ordeal quickly and discreetly! I had NO IDEA until my mom told me the next day! People still talk about how good our food was to this day and swear it's the best food they've EVER had at a wedding! I've been to plenty of weddings with blah food, and it was my goal to NOT be one of them. Safe to say our food was ANYTHING but blah. It was so so good and we couldn't be more pleased with our decision to book Vestals!

anadas, elote, a southwestern salad, bridge and groom cocktails, and our cake! It was truly one stop shopping and I may be totally biased since it was my wedding...but I've been to A TON and I felt like ours was the best wedding food. Thank you guys so much! OUTSTANDING!

was phenomenal and served my husband and I as if we were royalty. Thanks for not letting us down Vestals! You guys were amazing!!!!!

and how they all went back for seconds at the buffet (especially the mashed potatoes!!). On the day, Beverly was so attentive to me as the bride. She made sure we always had water and went way above and beyond making sure I was comfortable all night. We had a flight theme and the whole staff dressed up as flight attendants and made the event perfect!!

e best food they had ever had, and they made the buffet lines incredibly efficient and flawless. They were kind, professional, talented and just so smooth the day of. We LOVED them!

any event.

used our own vintage glassware (over 700 pieces) and our own plates 190, Although they did not wash them ,they scraped and packed them and only 3 pieces were broken ...not a single chip on a plate.! Their staff worked like crazy and they estimated the amount of food perfectly. There were no wasted expenditures .. could not have been more pleased.

tastic and right in our budget for a lovely and delicious menu. Jordan set up a tasting for us and not only was everything absolutely delicious, but the presentation was magazine-worthy! You should definitely let Vestal's cater your next event!

g was truly amazing and really made our wedding reception. Everything was truly outstanding, from the planning process, to the food served, to the service. Definitely one of the best vendors we had! Thank you so much!!!

ere so happy with Vestals. So many of my guests commented on how great the food tasted..which doesn't always happen at weddings. They really know what they are doing.

n absolute joy to work with. Throughout the planning process, they were very responsive and always made me feel like a priority. This was even shown the day of the wedding when they had my husband and I’s drink of choice on our table before we even got there. Jordan too came out from the kitchen just to tell us hi and to congratulate us. This is a caterer that knows what they are doing and I would HIGHLY recommend them to anyone!

t could satisfy the guests complaining of lack of cake. They exceeded expectations! Everyone raved about the food, which is quite the compliment since most people we know were skeptical about the lack of meat options as well. I was truly impressed with their friendliness, variety of options, quality of food and service was excellent. I hear most couples don't really get to eat on their wedding day, but they gave us extra attention to make sure we had food. We also used them for bar service, which was also wonderful. Pricing was great to!

They accommodated suggestions and guided decisions per their expertise. And of course, the food at the reception was just as delicious as the tasting prepared for just the two of us. Couldn't have been more pleased.

alty and we could not be more pleased with the service! We highly recommend Vestals to anyone looking for a great chef and professional for catering!

f very professional. Jordan helped coordinate a little sweetheart table in a back room of our venue so my husband and I could eat right after the ceremony while the cocktail hour was going on downstairs. Jordan checked in on us and made sure we had everything so we could spend our dinner visiting with our guests - it was perfect! I'm still getting compliments on our dinner from our wedding guests! I can't recommend them enough!

wnies and cookies! From the start, Vestals was very responsive and attentive. They helped us pick the perfect menu that matched our personality and tastes. We were so happy to work with them for our reception and we would highly recommend the Vestals team to anyone looking for superb catering in Dallas!

ecial level of intensity and care. He put together a cracking menu for my wedding, with close consultation throughout. The food was delicious, fitting for the occasion, and beautifully presented. Next comes Jordan's organization and follow through. He brings together great people to help him. Truly, they are professionals too. Finally, he works at your event with dogged concern. He refills glasses, talks with guests, but remains unobtrusive when he needs to. He dashes to solve problems of all kinds and still has time to chat with you, check in about the course of the event, and ask if you need a refill on your wine. I had a very positive experience with Vestals and encourage others to have one as well.

epared for us was sooooo delicious. When we originally spoke with Jordan, we told him our favorite foods, flavors, dislikes, etc and he drafted up the most perfect buffet menu for us. People are still talking about how delicious the food was and we are so thankful for that very memorable dinner they prepared for our wedding. In addition to the dinner buffet, we had some additional requests, like a popcorn bar to be set up for late night munchies, coffee to be served the entire night, apps served during the cocktail hour, and these were no problem at all for Jordan and his team. They were all so professional at the event and everything went so smoothly. They made sure the groom and I were taken care of the whole night (i.e. got us seconds, brought us fresh drinks before the ceremony, after ceremony, and throughout the entire reception.). The cherry on top was when we arrived at our hotel the night of the wedding we realized they boxed up leftovers and sent them with us to enjoy late night! That was so exciting considering we didn't really get to enjoy a full meal and were so busy the entire night. I highly recommend using Vestals for your event, everything was perfect!

and cheese!!!" pretty regularly. Jordan was one of our favorite vendors to work with. He was one of the caterers our venue recommended, and we were not disappointed! During the planning process, we attended a wedding catered by a more well-known caterer (one we considered using for our wedding), and while the food was delicious, the bride and groom said working with them was a nightmare once the contract was signed. He was incredibly patient with us throughout the entire process. My now-husband kept changing his mind about the menu, and we honestly had no idea what theme or 'feel' we were going for. Each time we wanted to change something, Jordan was ready with another idea. We probably wore him out a bit. Sorry!! Jordan's team also provided our bar service, which was excellent! I believe I didn't order enough booze for our NYE bash, but it's probably for the best overall. Jordan was very professional in each meeting and email, and worked seamlessly with my coordinator and venue rep on the wedding day. There was a miscommunication with loading up all the dishes/rentals at the end of the night, but in the end, that kind of stuff doesn't matter. Everything got to where it needed to be, so no harm no foul. He provided a great service, with a smile on his face, and we always recommend him and his team.

en free and vegan attendees. He came up with a brilliant approach that integrated the menu - no one felt as though they were given a special menu, and everyone got a terrific meal. The cooking felt light and healthy, and was completely filling. Got comments on how great people felt about the food (even the beef eaters). Also: Jordan put together a signature cocktail for us that everyone loved; many happy comments at the cocktail hour. Also: all the servers and bartenders on his team are professional - pleasant, cheerful, outgoing. We had only positive comments on the terrific catering. Finally: the entire process of working with Jordan was a delight, never stressful and never a hassle. We'd recommend Vestal Foods 100%.
