We loved the food and so did all of our guests! Wendy and her team made it easy, they handled all of the little details I couldn’t have thought of! They completely handled my specs order which was a god send. Anything that I wanted they were so accommodating, they truly helped make the wedding a luxury experience, while also being one of our most reasonably priced options! All of my bridesmaids are still talking about how fun the bartenders were so they also did an excellent job with that. They were super flexible and helpful with the fact that my Aunt baked our pie’s for dessert. Also - I think it was a rare attribute of my wedding venue but I actually got to see the full set up of the tables the day before, they already had everything almost set up! That totally put my mind at ease that I didn’t have to worry about that day of.

First off— this place is amazing. We had a unique idea for our wedding meal, we wanted breakfast for dinner, and they catered PERFECTLY. There was a wide variety of sweet and savory, and the food was hot the whole time. As the bride, I didn’t eat immediately, but my eggs and potatoes (as an example) were still warm once I got to my plate. Their communication is quick and effortless, and with working on a low-mid range wedding budget, they were SUPER budget friendly. We even did our beer and wine with Specs via Wendy Krispin, and that was completely effortless. They also had a great taste-testing session with us, I just would highly recommend overall!!

Working with Wendy and having her cater our wedding made an incredibly stressful time so easy, doable, and actually fun! My now husband  and I were in the midst of planning a large wedding out of state, and when COVID hit, we knew we needed to downsize our plans and move the wedding home to Dallas. My parents and I immediately thought of Wendy as the first step in planning our Dallas microwedding - we had worked with her for a previous event many years ago and knew how professional and above and beyond she and her team go for their clients. And our microwedding was no exception - Wendy and her team truly went above and beyond! We hadn't spoken to Wendy in years, but the second I picked up the phone, I felt so comforted and excited and knew I was in the best hands possible. Once we hired Wendy, I knew that with her guidance and expertise, everything else would fall into place. And that it did!
The menu planning process was so easy and fun, the tasting was impeccable, and her team was so easy to communicate with and work with. Wendy had great recommendations and input on the menu and other vendors to hire, and was so wonderful and helpful when we downsized our microwedding even more to immediate family only. I was very nervous about COVID and Wendy and her team double masked and gloved, were incredibly cautious and sanitized everything continuously, and they made our little wedding the best day we could have ever imagined. The food was incredible, the team was so gracious, fun, and lovely, and hiring Wendy Krispin caterer was truly one of the best decisions of our wedding and a highlight of moving everything to Dallas. When we did the horah, the bartender even jumped in to help lift my husband! It was so fun and Wendy and her staff really did feel like part of the party and also helped make the party and day what it was! I cannot recommend Wendy Krispin Caterer enough - it will be one of the best decisions you make!!

Professional, food was well presented, tasted great and the beef cooked perfectly. We had passed bites during the cocktail hour and they were a huge hit. I highly recommend the tomato soup and grilled cheese shooters! Beautiful plated salad and Wendy took care of me personally by bringing the MOB a HUGE plate of food that I shared with FOB. I had nothing I had to worry about at any time. Everything was set up on time, torn down without me even knowing, and packaged up leftovers! Elianah was my primary contact at the office and she is over the top professional and knows her business. I had other vendors who couldn't get back to me in days and she does it in a matter of hours. There with suggestions and personal experiences. Would hire them again...too bad I only have one daughter!
Thank you again.

Wendy Krispin Caterer catered our wedding right before Covid hit. We are beyond lucky to have had her team there with us. She made everything so seamless and easy. From the first conversation, tasting and especially the day of. I didn't have to worry about a thing.
Her staff brought cocktails and hors d'ovures to my bridal party outside taking pictures and she had a full dinner set up for my husband and I to eat before our entrance.
The staff was amazing! They were on point all night.
I couldnt recommend them enough!

Wendy Krispin and her team genuinely saved our wedding. Almost exactly 30 days from our wedding day our venue informed us that the caterer that we had been working with for months could no longer work at our venue. They recommended a few caterers, one of which was Wendy Krispin. I called ASAP & naturally, I was freaking out. Her team was patient and kind even though I was a basket case at the time. They were knowledgeable and accommodating, Wendy even made a couple of custom dishes to assimilate with what we had planned for months. & the OUTCOME - WOW! From the design and aesthetics, to the food and the service - everything was great! We had so many compliments on how good the food was & that was really our goal. I can't imagine what she & her team could have done with more time. If I could do it all over again (& if I was given the option!) I would go with Wendy from the start. She & her team will take great care of you.

Wendy is a boss. She'll have a special place in my heart forever! When my venue unexpectedly shut down, I reached out to let her know. She called me immediately and gave me a lot of courage and assurance that everything was going to be okay. She has been incredibly gracious and generous to me when all the hurdles were thrown my way throughout the wedding process. Wendy is on another caliber. We had so many compliments from the service and food provided by Wendy. She's been timely since day one and so easy to work with. All t's crossed and i's dotted. I recommend this company 1000%

Excellent caterer! They catered my daughter’s wedding and from the tasting to the end of our event, WKC was top-notch. The food was delicious and beautifully presented, and the service couldn’t have been better. Wendy made sure we were completely happy with the menu and all the extra details, like taking water to the bride during the pre-ceremony photo session to making sure the bride and groom had appetizers during their photos after the ceremony while everyone else was enjoying them during cocktail hour. She and her staff also accommodated the matron of honor’s celiac disease restrictions with no problems. She was very easy to work with, professional, so efficient, and extremely detail oriented. AND her pricing was the lowest of all our bids!! I don’t see how it could have been any better! Thank you WKC!!

We highly recommend Wendy Krispin Caterer. Wendy was so great to work with and the food tasted amazing! We had so many people comment on how great the food tasted and how amazing her tea was. The presentation of the buffet line and the linens and tableware looked great. They even brought us some to go boxes when we were leaving because we did not have much time to eat. The servers also did a great job and were never in the way. If you want great tasting food and drinks at your wedding, I recommend using Wendy Krispin.

Wendy Krispin Caterer created and executed a fabulous wedding for us, it was like a dream! They completely transformed our wedding venue space bringing in everything from chairs, tables, and tablecloths to colored glasses and cloth napkins. Wendy Krispin had personalized napkins and cups for our wedding with our initials and wedding date--they were beautiful and unique!! The food is five star, and the staff and service is phenomenal. I would recommend her business to everyone!

We booked Wendy Krispin Catering for our wedding this past April 2019. Unfortunately, the wedding was canceled 30 days prior to the event and Wendy and her staff were more than gracious in helping to accommodate our situation around our contract. Wendy and staff are very professional and proved in this situation to us, although they have a business to run, their compassion and empathy to our situation provided they were more than a business, they cared about their clients and what they're going through. We live outside of Dallas and from the very beginning, they bent over backwards to accommodate our schedule when we were in town to accomplish what we needed to do. The tasting presentation was not only top notch, but professional Wendy even took the time out of her busy schedule to be there with her staff even though she had another commitment to attend and chose to meet us face to face. The food that we requested at the tasting was absolutely phenomenal and even while we were there, Wendy and staff made accommodations to our taste and liking. I highly recommend you choose Wendy Krispin Catering for your event, big or small...they will not disappoint and they will be my first catering choice should we ever have to be in Dallas to host another event.

Wendy and her team are FANTASTIC! From the moment I reached out to them, they were extremely responsive and professional. We were blown away with her EFFICIENCY and RELIABILITY. She gets things done! She made the day stress free and her servers are some of the nicest people you will meet. Her food is SO GOOD and throughout the evening our guests raved about her. She also created a dessert bar with the theme of our college which I thought went above and beyond. Couldn't have been happier with our choice to work with her and her team!

We cannot say enough good things about Wendy and her team!! She catered our wedding in Ft Worth in August, and she went above and beyond with every detail. The first time I connected with Wendy, she laughed because it was clear that our vision and our budget for the wedding did not line up...and then she said she’d get creative and call me back, and she totally figured out how to make it happen! She far exceeded our expectations and perfectly realized the vision for our wedding! I’ve included a longer review below for anyone interested, but I will just say that Wendy is professional, creative, easy to work with, and incredibly helpful. Our wedding was flawless, the food was amazing, and the service was excellent. We planned our whole wedding from a thousand miles away and could not have done it without their help! Thanks, Wendy and Elianah - we are huge fans of yours!
Longer review for anyone interested:
I am one of those super picky people who over researches everything to make sure I’m getting the highest quality for the best price - so I did plenty of digging before reaching out to a handful of caterers who I thought would fit the bill. Of all the inquiries I submitted with caterers in Dallas, Wendy was the first and only one to pick up the phone and call me. She was immediately helpful, offering recommendations about our venue and potential ways we could get creative to serve the type of meal we had in mind with a rather limited budget. It got better from there. We only learned after our tasting that it wasn’t typical to try 10 different entree options - it was actually laughable how much food Wendy’s team prepared for our tasting! Her menu options are VERY extensive, and she also created some custom items based on what we thought wanted. After our tasting we changed the the menu at least five times, and we even changed the reception venue twice. Wendys team just rolled with it. We are foodies with high expectations, and the food at our wedding was everything we hoped for...even better than we remembered from the tasting, which was pretty awesome considering a crowd of two-hundred. But the real benefit of working with Wendy was the amount of stress she took off of us - she was super responsive and just handled all the details that we wouldn’t have even thought of. She figured out the whole bar setup, drink menu, etc. We didn’t get to meet all the servers during the receptions, but a few of them that served us were really friendly and really professional. I could go on about the details we appreciated. We highly recommend Wendy and her team - we totally get why she’s been one of the best in Dallas for so long. Thanks for everything!!

We used Wendy Krispin for our wedding in August, and we were beyond pleased with everything! We were able to go in for a personalized and individual tasting of our selected menu while we were debating which caterer to use. After that we were sold! Wendy Krispin and her team worked with our budget and were very responsive and helpful throughout the planning process. Wendy also went above and beyond by getting us a last minute bar set up and also leaving our reception to get more wine when we ran out early in the wedding. And of course the food and service were fabulous during the wedding. Would highly recommend Wendy Krispin and her team for any wedding/event!

Although there were some miscommunication and errors made in Wendy’s office, everything still worked out for the best. I wish we could go back to our wedding day just to eat. The mock-tails were a hit. The hibiscus tea....I seriously need the recipe for the tea. Everything was delicious and the staff was top notched. I highly recommend Wendy and her team.

The food and service we received from Wendy Krispin Catering was spectacular! My mother, father and I had been to multiple tastings and it was clear after attending the tasting with Wendy that she knew what she was doing and we could put our trust in her! The food was fantastic and stood out among the rest! They worked with us on our budget and made great suggestions on dessert! Wendy even sat down with us to help layout alcohol quantities and help made suggestions on the most popular drinks. Everyone at the wedding raved about the food and I am still hearing great feedback three weeks later! Wendy pre-mixed our signature cocktails for us and made sure the groom and I did not have to get up from our seats during the wedding to get food. The staff got our orders and served us drinks, and food so we could eat without interruption. Wendy recommended an amazing pie place as well, Norma’s Café, and offered to pick up the pies for our wedding! We had a small snafu with timing and the pickup process, but they arrived to the venue just in time to send our guests off with mini pies! I would highly recommend hiring Wendy Krispin catering for your wedding or even a corporate event! The food will knock the crowd off their feet and you will get top of the line service!

Working with Wendy was great! The food was delicious and she made my dreams of having elote at my wedding come true (and it was a hit)! She also went out of her way to pick up the pies we ordered instead of a traditional cake. I highly recommend a signature cocktail creation from Wendy as well. Our blackberry whiskey smashes were the "toast of the town" among our guests, many of whom have been trying to recreate them ever since! Overall, my husband and I were very happy!

Wendy Krispin was amazing. She catered both our rehearsal dinner and wedding. She took care of every detail of our wedding and was easy to work with from the very beginning. Her staff was very responsive, and more often than not, Wendy herself would take our calls (including on weekends and evenings) to answer our questions and put our minds at ease. On the day of the wedding, we ran very behind schedule. Despite eating dinner more than 45 minutes late and there not being a full kitchen at our venue, the food came out perfect. Wendy also offered to keep her staff late, so that we would not have to shorten the dance party afterward to allow her staff time to clean up. On a personal note, I requested a rather difficult signature cocktail, and she nailed it. She also emailed me pictures she took on her phone of special small details of the wedding that she caught from her behind the scene perspective. Of course, the most important thing is that her food is excellent. We will definitely use her again if we need to host another event.

Wendy Krispin was an absolute delight to work with. From our tasting to the wedding day, she was responsive, flexible, and professional. Not only is her food amazing, but she worked under less than ideal conditions at our wedding (our venue didn't have a kitchen and we were running more than an hour behind schedule) Nonetheless her service remained impeccable. As the bride, I was never aware of any hiccups in our schedule, Wendy and her team rolled with the punches and the result was an amazing wedding reception for 150 guests. Wendy's team provided bartenders, passed hors d'oeuvres during cocktail hour, and servers for our family style reception. Wendy herself checked on us several times during dinner to make sure everything was to our liking. I can't tell you how many guests complimented the food. And to top it all off Wendy made my favorite late night snacks, fresh doughnuts, that were a huge hit at the end of the night! Thank you Wendy Krispin!

My experience was absolutely terrible. All of the aliment they accommodated was conspicuously not made from scratch, the victuals was incredibly over priced for the quality that we received. Her "cooks" were very unprofessional and conspicuously have no training whatsoever. Wendy herself was absolutely impudent and her snide little comments were incredibly racist and beyond unprofessional. Her kitchens are terrible, and a worn-out mess. If you dare to utilize her ask her for a tour of her kitchen and walk-ins. You have been warned if you don't optate to mentally and emotionally scar your guests all while getting your stomach pumped then feel in liberty to utilize her "accommodation"

We had a great experience with Wendy Krispin. We first got to meet Wendy in person and sample a wedding meal at Wendy's restaurant in the Design District. The food was delicious and we found out that Wendy had experience working our venue (Filter Building at White Rock Lake). The planning process was also smooth. In the early phase, we experienced a small lag in response time from Wendy, but this was not an issue when it got closer to the event.
The wedding itself was perfect! Great food and great service. Everything was on time and exactly as expected.

Simply stated, Wendy is the best! She catered my engagement party. The food was fun, delicious and creative. Her staff was impeccably trained and provided tremendous service. Wendy personally saw to it that everything was carried out according to her personal standards of excellence!

I absolutely loved having Wendy Krispin Catering as the one stop shop for all my catering needs! They had everything I needed which made me feel at ease for my big day. Hands down they had the best menu options for our big day than other catering companies I was looking into. I loved having a tasting before and they worked with my vision (in fact giving me more suggestions that I didn't even think of).

Our daughters wedding was perfect and that had a lot to do with Wendy Krispin's venue at 129 Leslie and her staff especially Cali! They were all amazing and we had so many compliments on the venue. Most importantly we were made to feel so special and the service was impeccable. Thank you Wendy and Cali!

Wendy, her staff, and Venue are all PHENOMENAL!!!! This was the first venue I viewed and the LAST!!!! It was everything I envisioned and more. The eclectic style of the venue is definitely one of a kind. I wanted an arty venue and 7 for Parties delivered. My wedding was a dream come true. The staff ensured not only the bride and groom were happy but EVERYONE in attendance was spoke very highly about the service level. The FOOD, I don't think Mirriam-Webster has a word that can describe the greatness that danced around our mouths. It is now September and people are still gushing over our wedding and that would not be possible without this amazing powerhouse team, venue, and catering provided by Wendy Krispin. In my opinion non else compares in DFW to this great service. My wedding was the beginning of wedding season and I have attended MANY weddings this spring and summer. People I see at those weddings who were also at my wedding always whisper "yours was way better" or "I haven't had better food since your wedding". This team takes great pride in their work and great care of the venue. For that I am eternally grateful you Wendy and her team.

As the mother of the bride, the planning, menu selection and "flow" of the night was extremely important to me. Ours was a pretty large and 'eclectic' group so we wanted substantial food with high quality. My daughter knew what she wanted and I will admit my menu and serving preferences were somewhat different. Wendy helped us bridge any gaps by consulting, made creative idea suggestions and was available for walk throughs. Her staff was accessible and helpful with pre-planning as well as day of. The food was phenomenal and guests did not walk away hungry. We had several guests that commented on the food and how they enjoyed the wedding. We used a venue that Wendy manages and the venue experience was equally as favorable. I would strongly recommend Wendy Krispin for catering and venue for weddings and events. Thank you.

Wendy Krispin did a great job for our wedding! We got married at the Filter Building on White Rock Lake and had a long list of caterers to choose from. After getting proposals from almost all of them, we went with Wendy. She completely customized the menu just for us and changed it around multiple times because we couldn't make up our minds. Once we finalized our menu, we were able to do a tasting of our food to make sure it was what we wanted...the food was awesome! We had a sliders bar and a pasta bar where guests could customize their orders. Everything turned out great and we got lots of compliments from our guests! Wendy and staff were very flexible with our constant floor plan updating and last minute requests. We couldn't have done it without them! The bartenders were also a hit! We would definitely recommend Wendy and are so glad we used them for our wedding.

We got married last weekend, and we had the most amazing experience with Wendy and her staff. The food was spectacular (many people came up saying it was the best wedding food they'd ever had). The only bad thing that happened all night was we ran out of steak because people were going back for fourths (yes, fourths). It was a totally seamless experience, and Wendy's expertise was invaluable. We had our wedding at her venue, which was an excellent idea - but I would have Wendy cater any event, any where.

We had a intimate reception for our wedding at 7 for parties. Wendy Krispin catered passed and buffet style horderves. She was very easy to work with when preparing the menu and had great ideas for timing and set up. The food was excellent. The wait and bar-tending staff she provided were friendly, helpful, and discreet. We had a wonderful reception without any worries or distractions thanks to her and her staff.

Wendy Krispin was phenomenal. When we encountered issues, as you always do with a wedding, she was flexible and eager to help. She did everything we expected of her, and more, and the food was superb. I can't say enough good things about her.

Wendy Krispin was excellent. I am so glad we choose to go with her. We held our ceremony and reception at one of her venues. Wendy was so wonderful. As was her staff. The venue was not being used the night before our wedding so they let us have the keys a full day early to set up the venue. This was such a stress reliever! I didn't have to worry about the venue being set up like I had envisioned, I got to be there the day before with my planner and make sure myself. Wendy Krispin was also our caterer. Everyone LOVED the food. It was fun, presented beautifully and tasted delicious. I still get compliments on how good the food was. We wanted to do food stations and Wendy gave us ideas and presented us with a lot of options to choose from. All of the food was a hit. The price was very reasonable and I did a lot of price comparing. We gave Wendy our budget and she really worked with us to make our ideas happen within our range. I would recommend Wendy Krispin's venues and Wendy Krispin Catering to all brides. I give them 5 stars because Wendy Krispin provided quality and made a very big part of wedding planning painless.

Wendy krispin did a wonderful job at my wedding. They were very helpful when working with me. They worked with how much I wanted to spend. The tasting was great! We initially chose different meals that we decided to change and Wendy was extremely helpful to find what would best fit our guest. I had no complaint during the wedding on the taste. Overall, it was a great experience having Wendy Krispin cater our wedding!

We based all our wedding decisions by referrals and word of mouth. Consider this my shout out! Wendy Krispin needs to be a part of your catering tasting.
**Wendy Krispin catering will be catering our wedding on October 11th, so there will be an additional review to follow!
Our first impression was the cost - great!! Then of course, the food - absolutely amazing! We are having the pecan crusted chicken and the tilapia for our meats. I'm not a big 'caesar salad' fan, but fell in love with that too! The hibiscus tea - made by Wendy and not your ordinary tea - a must have for the wedding, especially for the non-drinkers.
You can tell her and her staff have been in the business for quite some time. This will show when you meet her. All in all, I refuse to miss my meal on our wedding day!

Wendy Krispin Caterer creates great food for a great value. She and her team have lots of fun casual options for wedding dining. Her stations were beautifully displayed. She and her team handled 250 guests with ease. They were also open to meeting our special requests.
Communication was at times a little unclear. But overall, we and our guests loved the food.

We have known Wendy for years, but when she catered our daughter's wedding last March, she was absolutely amazing in every aspect of her planning/setting up/preparation/ food service! It could not have been better in any way. She met with our daughter and future son-in-law at the venue sight to get to know them and get a personal feel for what their vision for their wedding was. Then she graciously hosted a trial run for them and us, her parents, that was elegant and delicious and perfect in every way. You cannot find anyone more personable and dedicated to doing a perfect job than Wendy. Her prices are more than fair, and what she delivers is exactly what you want! She went "out of the box" to do some clever and different ideas for them, such as hand shaved ice with various toppings/liquors. She had a grilled cheese bar that served delicious mini grilled cheese around 10:30 that evening. She is so fun to be around, and her food is as amazing as she is. Her staff is tops. I cannot say enough about her as a person and a caterer. Please put her at the top of your list when planning a wedding or party or special event in your life....it will be an evening full of precious memories and one that you will never forget....thanks to Wendy Krispin!

Wendy was amazing, I got more than I could have ever expected. Beside the food being absolutely phenomenal, Wendy went above and beyond for us. We ran out of wine and liquor unfortunately too soon but Wendy went to her warehouse and brought us back what she could to ensure that the party could continue. The food was great the service was perfect we couldn't have been happier with the results. I would highly recommend Wendy to anyone looking for a caterer. She is a take charge woman who knows how to handle high stress situations. Thanks again Wendy, best regard Megan and Craig Arnold

My husband and I could not have chosen a better company for our wedding reception. Wendy and her staff were wonderful to work with. From the very beginning of the planning process, Wendy worked with us to help everything fit within the set budget. If there were any changes that needed to be made, they were done in a timely fashion. The food was amazing and perfectly seasoned. Wendy also made a unique recipe for our signature cocktails during the cocktail hour between the ceremony and the reception. People are still raving about how good those drinks were. I highly recommend this company to anyone in search of a caterer for their event.

Wendy Krispin is an amazing caterer! The food was amazing, the guests LOVED the food! The only reason I didn't give a 5 star rating was because our personal molten-cake turned out to be solid fudge. But other than that, our appetizers, meal, and desserts were amazing. Especially for the price. I really loved that she worked with us on the price and for being patient on all the different changes.

Just exquisite!! My husband and I went for the food tasting, and they were very professional. Food was delicious, presentation was beautiful, and they addressed every question, concern, and ideas we had throughout the tasting. We were very happy to find a cater that we really like, which is usually hard because my husband used to be a chef in Rome, Italy; and is hard to keep up with our standards. They were excellent at putting together a menu that combined Spanish seasoning (since I'm Puerto Rican), and mediterranean cuisine (my husband is Albanian), with their personal twist. The result was astonishing, people were delighted with the explosion of flavors. Every single person told me the food was amazing, delicious, really gourmet. I ordered extra food on purpose, and more than half of the people did get a second plate with a big smile in their faces!

Love Wendy Krispin food and had used her in previous events I have planned. She did a great job working with us to create the perfect menu and also did all of our rentals to help make sure everything ran smoothly. Might be a little higher priced than some vendors, but you won't be dissapointed. Friendly and helpful staff as well.

She sat down and met with us...picked our brains for a little bit and in 30 minutes we had absolutely the perfect hor d'oeuvres, stations, late night snack and bar options. everything represented what we liked and it all was so delicious! She is also very well priced.

My guests are still talking about the food a month after my wedding. It was literally some of the best food and service I have ever had. They went above and beyond for me, nailed the menu and completely knocked out the event. They tailed the menu to us, had tons and tons of food (hard to find that!) and left all my guests wanting more. Wendy was smashing and I would recommend her to anyone who wants a perfect event of amazing food and wonderful service!

We considered using this vendor, but she changed the prices on us at the last minute, and when we asked about it, she was incredibly rude. Horrible customer service. The food was good, but I wouldn't recommend working with this person.
