Elegante Catering made my wedding party a hit! From the moment my then fiance and I did our tasting, we knew for sure we were going to choose them. First of all, Nestor was so nice, honest, humble, and genuine, and that was really important to us. We went with their platinum plated package, and the price was incredibly fair, and the best package by FAR when I compared all catering companies in the area. Nestor was always available and so pleasant in emails, calls, and had the most calm demeanor. We knew we had to hire them!Then comes our wedding party - they arrived on time, and basically handled everything! They didn't let me do a thing and wanted me to relax and have fun the entire time. Their team was SO nice, professional, friendly, and personable! They even accommodated my request to put the plates on my dinner tables for the photographer to photograph, even though it created more work for them by having to pick them up again for the dinner - they happily obliged and I was so grateful! Also, one of their team members tried helping me figure out a way to keep my centerpiece vases from tipping over because of the wind, that was so nice of her to do when she didn't have to! Their entire team was so nice, the plated dinner was so elegant, the appetizer and dessert table looked so cute, and the food was great too! I had a little bit too much to drink lol, and they handled everything at the end and even put the leftovers in our fridge before they left!I highly recommend Elegante for any party you need! Thank you again, a million times over for everything!

I can't say enough good things about Nestor and his team. He and his crew arrived very early and set up for our son's wedding in Blue Jay (Arrowhead), and were very patient through multiple delays. We ordered the Pasta Station option from the menu and it was fantastic! All plates made to order surprisingly fast with up to 3 meats available, sauteed in an assembly line manner. Possibly the BEST Italian food I've ever had. Pro tip: Top your dinner with his alfredo sauce with a dab of marinara...THE BOMB! So good! Very gracious staff, and clean-up went smoothly. Thanks, Nestor!

Nestor and Elegante Catering catered my son's high school graduation party at our home. We chose the make your own pasta bar. It was a HUGE HIT! Everyone loved it. It included two types of pastas, three protein options, two sauces, and tons of fresh veggies. Elegante Catering arrived early to set up and treated our guests with professionalism. They quickly broke down their kitchen and left the party as soon as they were done. I would highly recommend them for a large party. We would definitely use them again.

Elegante Catering was our caterer for our 7/2/22 wedding. After searching and multiple food tastings we decided on hiring Elegante Catering for our big day. Nestor was easy to reach and very kind from the beginning. He answered my many questions on the different type of menus available until we decided the platinum plated buffet style was the best for for us. After learning that having oysters , for an additional charge, was available we decided to add that option to our cocktail hour. Unfortunately we didn't get to experience cocktail hour as we were taking pictures but we heard from our guest that they were a great hit!! We did however get to try the cocktail shooters and shrimp cocktail. The food was great and the serving of the buffet style was a breeze... it was so quick I was pleasantly surprised it didn't take long to serve 175 guest. Thank you so much!! - Juan & Carolyn

Absolutely beautiful service. As you can imagine weddings come with stress no matter as prepared as you think you are. The professionalism, the taste, the quality and the presentation was exceptional. I look forward to referring and using this business again in the future .

I went with Elegante because they were the most reasonably priced for the amount of people at my event. But the food was delicious and the staff was very professional so it was even more worth it! I paid extra for the plates, silverware, and cloth napkins and that made my event (my daughter's Sweet 16) seem even more elegant. The pasta buffet included two different kinds of pasta, two sauces, three meats, salad, and rolls. They began serving right on time, were very courteous to my guests, let me know a few minutes before they were going start packing up so I could announce if anyone wanted more, bussed the tables, and even boxed up the leftovers. I honestly didn't even see them leave because they were so quick to clean up and didn't disrupt the party at all even though the kitchen was a little ways away from where they had to serve. And they left the warming kitchen spotless so there was literally no clean up for me to do in regards to the food. Nestor and his team are the greatest! I would definitely recommend them!

Elegante Catering was selected by my EVP of Sales to cater to our company's new location open house on July 23, 2019. This review is written almost a year later, but let me tell you, I'd rather write this with a cool head and eloquent words than what I was thinking at the time and after the event.If I could give NO Stars, I would have.I purchased the "Taco Catering Cart, Mild Package" for 200 persons at $7.00 a person. Dignitaries from the county, multiple cities, colleagues, clients, and prospects were in attendance. The food was "OK" nothing to write home about. A little disappointed for such a self-serving name as "Elegante Catering," it was far from it, especially toward the end of the event.Towards the end of time, we did not have the traffic to the food venue as we expected, and the catering staff saw this. They quickly and covertly began to garner Styrofoam boxes and box up some leftovers. They muled them to their employees' cars 5-6 boxes at a time. My wife and I were standing right there watching this. They must have had no idea that I was the owner of the company and one paying him. Not sure how he missed that when I was up giving speeches and getting awards for my business, not even 5 feet from his venue.My team and I approached them and asked if they were going to start boxing these up for us to take. Their words were as follows, "we do not have any containers for to-go food." Yet I just witnessed them utilizing said containers to fill and take the food for themselves. The worst thing here is their invoice states the following: "Mild Package: Steak, Chicken & Pork Tacos. Rice, Beans, Chips, Red & Green Salsa, Onions, Cilantro, Radishes, Limes. Plates, Napkins, Forks, Boxes for Leftovers". Barry's wife then went to get zip lock bags from the store to take the rest home. By this time, the food diminished by half from their covert operation, and we took what was left.Don't ever use these people. The food was "MEH," the ethics were abysmal. Save yourself the grief and call someone else.

Service people were great and Nesto is an great at communicating. However, they didn't provide me with the storage containers to store leftovers as listed on the contract, I was putting my leftovers in anything I could find to put the food in. I didn't like that the tortillas were cold because they were warmer in the microwave. I would have given 5 starts but unfortunately my guest and I were not impressed with food.
