Catering St. Louis

The staff were friendly, patient, and very hardworking. They specialize in service and are terrific at what they do! I was an out-of-town bride and they seriously handled all of my day-of coordination! (It was included in their service for free!) We chose to have our reception at the City Cottage. IT WAS BEAUTIFUL. The venue is creative, artistic, and has it's own lovely garden for your guests. It also is large enough for lots of folks, but small enough for everyone to get to know one another. I would choose CSL for a wedding if I had to do it all over again!

I had my wedding at the Spink Pavilion in May and it was a fantastic experience. Carleen at Catering St. Louis is amazing. She was really easy to work with and surprisingly flexible about things, like helping me find the perfect table linen and working with my Dad the Wine-o to find suitable wines for the reception. She truly made planning the reception an enjoyable experience. As far as price goes, it is a little bit up there but definitely worth it for the professionalism. I will say that the food on the wedding day was not as good as it was in our tasting, which was a slight disappointment. It was still good but not mind-blowing. Would definitely still recommend though, and all their sites are gorgeous!! Thank you Carleen and Leasa for your dedication to my wedding!!!

When we picked the St. Louis Artists' Guild for our reception and we were told we had to use a specific catering company, I was a bit afraid...but Catering St. Louis was great! Our coordinator Lisa was wonderful and responsive (usually emailed back within minutes...) All my guests raved that the venue and the service was impeccable--bartender had your drink ready before you got all the way to the bar, food was amazing, etc. The staff even gave me all the leftovers to take home afterwards-- which fed all the out of town guests the next day too...awesome! The price tag was on the high side, but that comes with the venue we picked and the service as we expected. I would recommend Catering St. Louis highly if you are looking into one of their venues!

The food was delicious. The service impeccable. The price was a little on the expensive side, but our venue made the night and without it our dream wedding would not have played out. Great company with friedly and helpful people.

We had a very good experience with Catering St. Louis. (We actually used them for the reception at Oliva and a brunch the next morning at the Whittemore House.) The food was really really good. We did a buffet because it was a little cheaper, and every item we tasted was excellent. Also, their service the night of was wonderful. The servers were all really nice, and they helped us clear up at the end of the night. Also, because they also own the venues, Catering St. Louis gave us a "planner" to work with us to make sure all of the details were perfect. So, for example, she helped us during our tasting and gave us the floor plan to send to the florist and generally organized the evening. The only negative thing I have to say about Catering St. Louis is that they're a little pricey and they seemed a little distant or formal during the planning process. Everyone was nice, I just kind of got the feeling that they were so busy (they have something like 6 venues) that they weren't able to be as personable as our other wonderful vendors were. But, overall, the food was delicious and the night went great!

Outstanding food and service! They were a pleasure to work with and made planning our wedding so easy.

Was a huge success! If you want a great event planner find Rhonda Wineinger!

Avoid Catering St. Louis at all costs! I can't overemphasize how rude and arrogant this company is. Every time I have called to ask for details about my wedding I am shocked at their behavior. They must be doing pretty well because they showed zero interest in catering my wedding. I'm obviously going with another company because I can only imagine that the attitude will continue and jeopordize my wedding. Stay away!

A tad bit on the pricey side but the quality of the food was superb. Everyone was pleased.

The service was great, and the coordinator was extremely helpful. I was a bit disappointed in the food, however. Everything was amazing at the tasting, but for the actual event the chicken was dry and everything was luke warm. It is understandable when catering for such a large event, but we were paying a lot. I didn't feel like I got what I was expecting for the price.

It is impossible for me to say one negative thing about Catering St. Louis. They gave a perfect amount of service, always responded quickly to any question that I had, and when they had questions for me always respected my answers and gave me time to answer without calling every few minutes. They were extremely accomodating during the wedding process, helpful on the actual day of the wedding, and just overall great people. The food was also amazing, and they went out of their way to help us get exactly what we wanted. For example, when we went in for the tasting the chef had prepared this amazing marinated cocktail shrimp with a wasabi-aioli sauce. My dad decided he just wanted plain old regular shrimp with cocktail sauce. This wasn't on their menu, and while I could see the chef cringing just a bit, he smiled and nodded and said they could absolutely do that. I would recommend working with Catering St. Louis to anyone. While their prices are a bit steep, I think the quality of service and the great food you receive makes it worth it.

Definitely the best catering in St. Louis! The food was so good I would be a regular at any restaurant they open! - even their breads & olives were yummy! They were always helpful, professional and seemed happy to be apart of our big day. Their offices were gorgeous, clean and the tasting was better than I expected by far! We highly recommend them!
