We hired Zio's to cater our wedding. From the first contact (to try some menu items and decide our plans) through the end of the wedding reception, they were fantastic!
A) profes...
sionalism - every person we interacted with was very professional. They were at the venue right on schedule and the food was ready to go. Nothing but positive interactions with servers, those who brought the food, or the people we interacted with when we initially inquired about their services.
B) pricing- they were by far the most reasonably priced option for what we wanted. The amount of food was well worth it!
C) the food! Everyone kept telling us how good the food was. And there was SO much. We took several servings with us and we still were giving away food to guests as they left.
D) this one is hard to title- but maybe compassion would be the word- we requested a serving of buttered noodles for our ring bearer, and also a serving of noodles with marinara (no meat) sauce in it for my dad who has swallowing troubles. Zio's was quick to honor these requests at no additional charge. This really stood out to me, as I was so thankful my dad would still be able to eat at my wedding.
