Delectables Fine Catering, Inc

Delectable’s was such a pleasure to work with! I had so many people during the wedding come up to me and tell me that it was the BEST wedding food they have ever had! Besides the taste of the food being amazing, the way it was set up was such a pleasant surprise! In addition, the Delectable’s staff at our wedding was very professional and accommodating. I would highly recommend Delectables for your wedding and catering needs.

Delectables was a great company to work with. They allowed us to customize our menu just the way we wanted. Everyone loved the food and it was set up so beautifully. We loved going to the tasting and we met a few of our other vendors form thei tasting, so we were grateful for that. It was so easy to work with Delectables and great customer service always!

Delicious!!!!!! My father was a chef and has a very particular view on how food should be presented and taste. We went to a few places with different tastings but Delectable's blew us away! Their tasting included a wide variety of selections at full size. It is a chef owned company and they know how to put out a spread. We got so many compliments during the reception about how wonderful the food was. Many of our guest expressed that it was much more than they expected and that wedding food is normally bland and cold but everything was the right temperature and delicious. We had the prime rib carving station and the pasta station with chicken and seafood. For desert we skipped cake and had a banana's foster and cheery jubilee station. Our guest were blown away! We also received an ice sculpture that was just the right touch! After the reception the staff packed up all the left over food and gave it to us to take home. The quality of the food and service is worth the price. We couldn't have been happier!

All we can say about Delectables and their staff is WOW!!!! Our small wedding was elegant, professionally prepared and served without a single hitch! Everyone involved, from Marilyn our planner to the serving staff who made our reception perfect, were an extreme pleasure to deal with. After spending 21 years in bartending, I was a bit nervous about all the details but the Delectables staff put my mind at ease and were phenomenal!! Their pricing is extraordinary and beat their competitors hands down - especially when you see what you get.My husband and I cannot wait to have a party just so we can use them again!

Everyone raved about the food at our wedding! Delectables was very accommodating with both our menu and the way we wanted our food presented. The only drawback was that we were too busy at our wedding to really eat and forgot to bring to go containers to take things home!

I I can't not even begin to explain how happy we are with our choice to use Delectables for our Wedding! Laurie went above and beyond to help us throughout the process of selecting everything for our wedding and we were thrilled to see how it all turned out on our big day. Even though they were much more budget friendly than other places we looked into, that didn't effect the quality of their food or service. We got nothing but compliments on the food and the wait staff from all our guest. Throughout the night the staff went out of their way checking to make sure we ate and everything was okay with our food. I especially appreciated that they saved us food from the cocktail hour to taste at our table since we missed it while we were taking pictures!

The food was amazing! We tried a few other caterers, and we liked them the best. The price was also great! The servers were fantastic!!!!

There is no reason not to use this caterer for your event -- they are outstanding! My guests raved about the food!!! They arrived on time, provided perfect service, provided me with full explanatiion, and calmed my nerves. Their food is delicious and the presentation is a feast for the eyes. Other caterers offer chicken wings and pinwheels for near the same prices. They have a creative menu to choose from. They have wonderful bar packages (we chose the bar set-ups and we provided liquour/wine/beer). Their servers are delightful -- loved Susan; and Julio, our supervisor was a workhorse and a professional in all ways! Marilyn, our catering sales coordinator was a great help in designing our package around our budget. The tasting events are wonderful -- ask the servers for suggestions and what people like the most. This helped us in arranging the ideal menu. Not one bad comment about DFC. USE THEM! Mother of the Groom and I planned everything, because bride and groom are both 3L in law school. Great wedding and the guests had only wonderful comments.

Food was delish! Service was great, prices were great! We were allowed to go to as many tastings as we wanted to so we could be sure on our food selection. All of our guests were pleased with the sit down dinner, including myself!

Delectables was AMAZING! In every sense of the word. I have never been to a wedding where the food was above average. Nor did I ever talk about the food unless it was just that bad. EVERYONE at our wedding commented on how good ALL the food was. Different people had different favorites but they all loved the food! I could not believe all the positive feedback we were getting! It was definitely the best wedding food I have ever had.Their pricing is fantastic. We had such a tight budget but we pulled out a full bar for the night, prime rib and three other stations along with a ice sculpture of a vase!!!I highly recommend Delectables! I also recommend you go to their tasting - they do one, once a month. It's what really sold me. They do a large buffet which really calmed my nerves about mass produced food. It all tasted great!!

We were very pleased with Delectables from beginning to end. They were helpful, professional and did everything to make our wedding day special. The food was incredible! We received many compliments. It would be very difficult to pick a favorite, but we especially loved the Seafood Shooters. The food presentation was beautiful! They used our colors and followed the theme of our wedding. We really appreciated the great service from the chef and the servers. We were amazed at getting so much for the money we paid. It couldn't have been more perfect. We highly recommend Delectables.

Delectables Catering recently catered our wedding reception. The entire staff was amazing, and the food was even better! The entire week after the wedding I even had people commenting on how good the food was. Leading up to the event, the staff worked with us to determine the best menu and was very accomodating to every change or addition we made. I would definitely recommend them for your event...you won't be disappointed!

I met with Delectables a few months before our wedding. We were unable to attend their once a month tasting but they arranged a private tasting for us. I worked with Marilyn from day 1 and she was such a pleasure to work with. Her attention to detail was remarkable.They were so accommodating and I’m so grateful for this. They worked with us in creating a tasty menu, and adhering to our dietary guidelines, and even allowed us to prepare a special dish. The food was tasty and they were so professional. Our guests raved about the food and said it was the best food they’ve ever had at a wedding. Even our vendors raved about the food. My husband and I did eat at our wedding and we loved it. The food was served piping hot and the hor dourves were a big hit with the guests. We provided the vegetarian entre and they served it without any problem. Delectables did such an awesome job. They cut and served the cake, provided an ice sculpture and assigned a server to me and my husband. We had so much food. We had some food left over at the end of the night and I forgot about packing Tupperware. This was not a problem for them, they packed up the leftovers in disposable containers and we were able to have someone take them home for us. Everything was perfect and they were a pleasure to work with.

The ice sculpture was awesome. They carved my husband’s boat, "The little buddy" out of ice. Huge hit!

Delectables Catering was great. They decorated the wedding reception room and it looked like something out of a wedding magazine. The food was fantastic especially for the value. I would definitely recommend them to anyone who needs catering. Thanks

I was a destination bride, planning my wedding from my computer in New York state. Marilyn was amazing to work with. She was prompt and efficient with every email and phone call. She was a wealth of information and made me feel very confident in the catering. The result was amazing customer service and mouth watering food at our cocktail hour and reception. Everyone was raving about how delicious our food was. Also, we booked the alcoholic beverages through Delectables -- and that was very easy to do. Booking Delectables was a fabulous decision. One of the servers even met me outside of our reception venue when I arrived with my new husband on our Jolley Trolley -- she helped me wipe the sand off of my feet to put on my heels. So nice. I can't say enough about Delectables and the staff, and customer service.

Delectables was absolutely the BEST! I can say NOTHING other than than they completely delivered. Delicious food, at the right temperatures, displayed extremely nicely, a very friendly staff, and everyone raved about the food -- from the amount, to the display, to the taste. THE BEST. I was totally impressed. 'Nuf said.

Delectables was an absolute pleasure to work with! Marilyn was on top of EVERYTHING and helped me plan out the perfect menu for my wedding on 10/1. Everyone raved that it was pretty much THE BEST 'wedding food' they have ever had - especially the Chicken Boursin! The set up was extremely classy, our ice sculpture rocked, and the late night cookies were delicious! I definitely recommend the chicken boursin, the deluxe pasta bar (guests LOVED it) and adding the ice cream sundae bar - who doesn't love ice cream and cake! We did not go through them for our cake (check out my review of Chocolate Pi!) but they cut and served the cake for me at no extra charge! It truly was a magical experience and the food was extremely memorable. I definitely plan on using them again for any catering event I have! You CANNOT go wrong with Delectables!

I used delectables fine catering for my rehearsal dinner. Donna Young is very professional and is well informed on my status, i placed a deposit for our wedding reception but we changed venue and we cant bring vendors so Delectables was very professional to convert it into providing food for the rehearsal dinner. The food was very delicious and my guests were very pleased how tasty the food and the viennese platter was a hit. Donna and Marilyn thank you so much. I really recommend this vendor.

Really appreciated the staff's hard work, courtesy, and professionalism. Can't say enough about Jim and his crew...all were hard workers and a pleasure to be around. Food was excellent! Gotta give an A+ rating.

Marilyn and the staff at Delectables were awesome! They played a HUGE part in my wedding, and they do a lot more than just bringing the food. It was definately worth it. Everything went so smoothly! The food is very good, I would recommend the chateaubriand. So tender and flavorful! I just loved it! I went to quite a few tastings at other caterers, and Delectables was by far the best! I'm very happy with the way everything turned out and I will definately recommend them to anyone needing catering services and use them for myself in the future!

As I sit here basking in the glow of married life and munching on a 4-day old stuffed mushroom leftover appetizer and still delicious bit of chicken marsala as I write thank you cards, I realize how lucky I was to find Marilyn Chapman and Delectable's Catering. Delectable's is the best in the area and believe me I priced many options, went to many tastings, and was tired by the end of it and then I met Marilyn at Delectable's. Quotes were provided immediately, they were updated based on changes I requested time and time again, and never once did Marilyn make me feel like I was annoying her or she didn't have time for me. She provided advice that I found incredibly useful. The prices are incredible and the portions even better!My wedding was a sit down for 140 people and they are picky people to please. The guests included no salt requests, vegetarians, kosher, and everything else you can think of. No problem. Delectable's always met each need with a smile and professionalism that you rarely see in the world today. They provide the freshest ingredients and I heard all my guests rave about the food! Not one complaint. And the service at thew edding was amazing! They even did a manatee ice sculpture, since manatees are my favorite animal!!!!!!!The last week of my wedding I had a crisis with my original wedding planner and Marilyn was able to recommend Krissy at Special Moments. She even made a phone call to her friend to explain my situation and desperation. I expect people to assist when you hire them for a service, but when I desperately approached Marilyn for advice, she went the extra mile to help me. That is not service, that is a friend. You can't pay for that kind of feeling, that kind of true kindness. I am forever grateful! Thank you so much. I will use Delectable's for anything and everything I do in the future and just wish they had a restaurant I could go to for dinner. :)Thanks again,Amy Jordan and Dennis Frantzman

The food was the talk of the wedding. The quality was the driving force behind their product. Staff was approachable and quick to respond. The agents involved booking the event went above and beyond to make our day special for the two of us.

I had no idea what I was doing and they walked me through it all. Great food, fair price!

IT WAS FANTABULOUS!!!!!!!!!!!!! THE FOOD WAS AWESOME, THE SERVICE WAS EXCELLENT, AND SO PROFESSIONAL. I HAVE BEEN TO MANY WEDDINGS IN THIS AREA SUCH AS THE VINOY, DON CESAR, FEATHER SOUND COUNTRY CLUB ETC. BUT THE FOOD WAS BY FAR THE BEST. YOU WILL BE AMAZED AT THE FOOD, SERVICE, PROFESSIONALISM AND ESPECIALLY THE VALUE OF DELECTABLES FINE CATERING, INC.

We couldn't be happier

Delectables was awesome..we got so many compliments from out guests and the display was beautiful. The wait staff was awesome as well. We will definitely use them again for our catering needs.

Our daughter's wedding was spectacular for many reasons, but Delectables was an important part of it. The event was a success and the food was delicious! We will recommend Delectables and will use them again for catering needs.

Delectables Catering catered our wedding on Sunday, July 3rd and I am so happy I went with Delectables! The food was absolutely delicious (especially the Tuscan chicken) and all our guests are still raving about the food!! I would definitely choose Delectables over any other cater- 100%!! Thank you Delectables :)

Delectables is a first class catering service that I have used time and time again. They recently catered our daughter's wedding, and we heard nothing but positive comments on the excellent food as well as the service.

The food was amazing!! You can not find a better selection of delicious food for a better value. The exotic bread display was my favorite. Beautiful! They offer all the little additional things that you need at your wedding at the best price in town. I got tons of complements all throughout out the night and still!!

I got SOOOOO many compliments on the food! We did buffet stations and everything was GREAT! I saw many people going for seconds and everyone loved it! The staff was more than nice and I dont have one complaint! I would highly recommend Delectables!

Marilyn at Delectables was amazing throughout the entire planning process! She was responsive to my questions and willing to let me change up the menu until it was exactly what I wanted. The food at my wedding was amazing...hands down the bed wedding meal I have ever had. My guests are still talking about how great the meal was! Would definitely use Delectables again!

The food at our wedding was absolutely phenomenal! Everything turned out perfectly and our guests were raving about the food all night. Marilyn was wonderful throughout the entire process. She was always available to answer my questions and really helped guide me through everything. The staff at the wedding was very professional, attentive and courteous. They had everything taken care of so I didn't have to worry about a thing. I would highly recommend Delectables to anyone - the value and quality doesn't compare to other caterers in the area.

Amazing food! Very very friendly and easy to work with. This company made planning a wedding so easy and stress free! Everything provided was delicious, the spread was beautiful and every single person we spoke with loved the food!

Delectables had some of the best food we tasted! We met with several caterers and they were the most reasonable and most willing to work with your budget. My colors were apple green and black and so I had this deep desire to have apple green lemonade. It was not a problem for them! It was perfect! Their decor was modern and fit perfect with our style ( I was scared of tacky columns and such). Our guests were so happy with the food and so were my parents with the price! Thank you delectables for your impecable service! I would choose them over and over again!

If you're looking for amazingly prepared dishes that will knock your guests' socks off, and vendors who are flexible and really partner with you on your vision of your day; go with Delectables. They were fantastic - the chef, the event staff, the office staff. I can't say enough. The food was plated so professionally - the salads were almost too pretty to eat, and the main dishes looked like they could be photographed and featured in a magazine. My family and I had so much fun putting together the menu - we couldn't wait to eat the food! My husband and I attended a tasting, and it was so much fun! We mingled with other newleyweds and vendors in the most adorable outdoor garden last fall. They had fireplaces lit, live music, and the staff really impressed us. The food was incredible.

Delectables Fine catering was AWESOME! Not only did they do my brothers wedding but the did a fabulous job at our wedding as well. They did such a wonderful job with the table settings...and every guest I spoke to loved the food and service. The guests were ranting and raving about how good the food was. I loved the fact that they included the cake and ice sculpture into the package with 100 guests. I would recommend them to anyone looking for a caterer.

Delectables Fine Catering went above and beyond what I was expecting! Amazing and very professional service. We chose to have a buffet style for our wedding, after going through the buffet line the staff carried my plate back to the table for me, pulled out my chair, and placed a napkin on my lap. It made me as the bride feel even more special. I defiantly recommend them and already have to friends. Months after the wedding I still have friends commenting on the delicious food and awesome ice sculpture!

STOP YOUR SEARCH NOW....THIS IS THER CATERER YOU ARE LOOKING FOR! Hands down, no contest, the BEST food we tasted and the most highly recommended caterer by FAR! We were SOOOOOOOOO happy with our food, and there was SO much of it, we were eating leftovers for a week (and very happily might I add). The service was impeccable, and the bartenders were on top of things (we used them for bar service as well). You won't find this quality of product anywhere, and certainly not for the price. It wasn't just us who enjoyed the spread, everyone complimented how delicious the food was. The presentation was beautiful as well. We were extremely pleased with Delectables and would recommend them to ANYONE! Thank you for a job very well done!

Delectables provided the food for our reception on November 6, 2010 at the Mahaffey Theatre. We had the tuscan chicken, plated. We had so many people come up to us to tell us how amazing the food was. Even out of town guests said it was the best food they have had at a wedding! Also, besides the food, thier service was great. I couldnt be at the ballroom at all the day of my wedding. Everything (favors, table numbers, seating) was out, they also provided all linens, and the table presentation was beautiful! Thank you!

The food is amazing! Delectables did our catering for both our rehearsal and reception. All of guests kept coming up to us and telling us how much they enjoyed the food. The service was stellar at both events. My fiance and I would highly recommend Delectables to anyone.

These people rock! They made the best food ever. I never been to a wedding where not one person had a complaint about the food. Well delectables made that my wedding. They provided the best services, food, and prcing. I recommend delectables to any bride who wants a delicious meal

Delicious and affordable!

Since food is a big portion of the wedding budget, it was important to us that we served our guests great food. We went to tastings at three different caterers. Delectables was BY FAR the best! Several of our other vendors also recommended them and confirmed that this company was very reputable.They hold a monthly tasting the first Saturday of every month from 11:00-3:00. Here, we were able to try an array of different hors d’oeuvres, entrees, and desserts. We chose to have a buffet style with different stations. We had a salad bar, pasta station, carving station, and chicken piccata with steamed veggies. The food was delicious and the staff was very professional and accommodating. I even gave them Tupperware before the wedding and they packed all the leftovers up for my husband and me to take to the hotel that night.My only minor complaint was that my husband and I didn’t get any of the hors d’oeuvres that were served during cocktail hour. I would have appreciated it if they would have saved us a few of each to enjoy since we were busy taking pictures during that time. However, it appears as though they were a big hit with all our guests, so in the end it was a big success. Marilyn and the staff at Delectables were great to work with. I highly recommend them.

Delectable's is a great catering company to have for any event! They did an amazing job at my wedding and everyone couldn't stop telling us how good the food was. We did three passed apps and a buffet. We had the hand carved sirloin and chicken montrachet. They even went back to the catering building to grab decor that matched what we had perfectly. They also have a tasting on the first Saturday of every month, definitely go to that as much as you can before your wedding! Marilyn is great to work with. She even let us pick up all of our linens two days before the wedding so we could start decorating!

This caterering company was outstanding and guests actually mentioned how wonderful the staff were and the plated meals were superior and delectable!

My guest where trying to lick the plate the food was so good!! The serving staff was so professional and nice!!! The quality of the food and service far exceeding the expense!! I could not have been any happier with the out come!!THANK YOU DELECTABLES for making my wedding reception so memorable!!

The food was a hit at our wedding! Our guests raved about the stations, especially the mashed potato bar and ice cream station! Thanks for doing such an amazing job!

Delectables is awesome! We were very happy with our wedding buffet. The only thing I was slightly disappointed about was the Israeli couscous with lavender and rosemary- it was not Israeli (the large, pearl sized grains) and did not have lavender or rosemary. What they made instead was good (regular couscous with cranberries, etc) just not what we ordered. Also, if you are particular about your napkin color- get very involved before your ceremony. We ordered Tiffany Blue, which is a very light teal like Tiffany's, the jeweler, but what they provided was a pale, sky blue.

The caterer is by far the most important vendor for a great party - they pull it all together - and Delectables does an amazing job of this! Everyone at Delectables is so helpful and quick to reply to all my silly questions! I would use them over and over again! And their prices are perfect!

I am still so happy with my decision to go with Delectables for the catering. The wedding coordinator Marilyn was extremely helpful and understanding during the planning process and very willing to work with you to make changes to any package to suite your needs. Their food was always excellent at the tastings we went to and it was even better at our wedding!The prices they charge were extremely reasonable, especially considering the high quality of food and service you receive. And of course, their food is outstanding!! We've received so many compliments from guests about the food and we enjoyed the leftovers for a week afterward! The catering staff the night of were very professional as well. Since we had 100 guests, they even included an ice sculpture free of charge, which looked awesome on the buffet line!

AMAZING service and quality! I could not be happier with Delectables and the wonderful staff they sent to our wedding. From the friendliness of the servers to the delicious food, they were a wonderful addition to our day. Jim, the supervisor, was an invaluable source and Margaret was highly energized! Fabulous company to work with!

We picked a very unusual venue, which had never hosted a wedding before, and Delectables went above and beyond the call of duty to make sure everything was perfect. They conducted an on site visit, and figured out ways to keep the food hot and delicious for our guests even though our venue had a strict no open flame policy.While on our honeymoon, my parents and my in-laws said they received phone call after phone call raving about the party and the food. This was particularly interesting because Delectables worked with us to create an all new menu... so we weren't exactly sure how anything would turn out!I would recommend Delectables to anyone, they were flexible, easy to work with, accommodating, worked with our budget, kind and perhaps most importantly--- the food was fantastic!

Marilyn and the entire staff at Delectables were amazing! The food was delicious and we received many compliments from our guests on how amazing everything was! We are so happy with the results of our wedding day and we owe a lot of that to Delectables and the incredible job they did! Marilyn provided us with a lot of advice, time and patience throughout the entire wedding process. She was incredibly accommodating to our dietary restrictions as well. I would highly recommend them for your wedding day!

The best kept catering secret in Tampa! I thoroughly enjoyed working with them. Marilyn is so extremely helpful and the cost is very affordable. All of our guests raved about the food (the Camembert chicken is a must).

“Delectables was such a pleasure to work with! I had so many people during the wedding come up to me and tell me that it was the BEST wedding food they have ever had! Besides the taste of the food being amazing, the way it was set up was such a pleasant surprise! In addition, the Delectable’s staff at our wedding was very professional and accommodating. I would highly recommend Delectables for your wedding and catering needs."

Absolutely delicious food for a really great price. We had 3 other tastings with other companies and none were as good as Delectables.

One of my guests owns a chain of Bonefish restaurants and is known throughout various friendship circles as the connoisseur of connoisseur's when it comes food and dining. What a thrill it was when he walked up to me at the reception and told me that the meal from Delectables at our wedding was the best wedding meal he had ever had!! Nearly six months later, he was still talking about the quality and taste of the food. It was a complete smash and I still am amazed that we got such a great feast with beautiful presentation and professional staff for a fraction of the cost for other caterers. Ladies, do not waste your time; call Marilyn at Delectables and book. The food was one of the biggest hits at our wedding. Chateaubriand and chicken saltimbocca and gumbo were fantastic.

It's amazing how affordable Delectables is for the quality of food they provide. They were nothing but helpful, pleasant and professional from the start. The day of the wedding, everything was smooth and efficient. We had a sit-down dinner and unplanned guest arrived and was taken care of, no problem. The food was great; all the guests agreed. We also used them for liquor catering and were pleased with that too. I really like that they offer a free tasting once a month. You can call and request things at the tastings or set up private tastings with specific items. The menu is extensive so this was very helpful in choosing food. It's one thing to look at a menu,it's another to try it. Tip: Ask for the Seafood Shooters, they're not always on the menu but they're amazing! I can't say enough good things about Delectables. Hire them!

Marilyn and her team at Delectables were amazing to work with during our planning process and gave us three days of unique and delicious meals that our guests are still raving about, over 1 year later! They provide great value for good, solid food and I would highly recommend them. We got our cake from another vendor but did get their dessert table option and our guests loved it!

Delectable's exceeded my expectations in the level of service they provided and the food we had at the wedding. Marilyn Chapman - the catering coordinator for my wedding - always responded very promptly to my emails and was a pleasure to work with. She made creating our menu and finalizing the last-minute details effortless. I highly recommend using Delectable's for your wedding as they have been in the business for several years and did an amazing job at my wedding!

Delectables provided excellent food and service for my daughter's wedding. They were on time and were extremely professional. They had to flip the room from the service to the sit-down dinner. This was done efficiently and effectively. The feedback that I received from my guests was extremely positive. Everyone loved the hors d'oeuvres and the dinner selections. I highly recommend this caterer!

Delectables did an excellent job catering my wedding. They were able to arrange a private tasting for me and my fiance. They created new menu items for us per our suggestion. They did an excellent job setting up everything just the way I wanted. They were also extremely affordable and I would definitely recommend them again and again!!

The food was the best wedding food I had ever tasted! They worked with us to accomodate both vegetarian and vegan guests who also thoroughly enjoyed their meals. The decorations also were amazing.

Excellent staff and service, and the food is delicious! Couldn't have asked for anything better. They even let me design my own appetizer. Ask about "Melissa's Southern Corn Cake" when you talk to them! It's a very cute and sophisticated minature version of BBQ :-) And don't forget about the ice sculpture that's included with the catering service! My husband loved his surprise sailboat!

Amazing food, amazing service, amazing menu! Affordable, incredible catering!

Delectables was not only delicious but amazing to work with. My husband and I got engaged on the Empire State Building so we had a New York Inspired wedding. Delectables not only hit a homerun with the menu they hit a grand slam. Our guests loved the food and the concept which would not have been possible without the creativity of Delectables! WE LOVED IT!

TEST------------------------------------------------------------------

Everything was fantastic!The buffet was beautiful, the food was delicious, there were so many amazing hors d'oeuvre options it was hard to narrow it down. Any questions we had were quickly answered, and everyone was very helpful and friendly.

You guys were awesome! We had so many people who mentioned to us that they liked the food. We have friends who are getting married in Nov that we told about.

People are still telling me how much they enjoyed the food at our wedding! We did the combination platter of chicken and steak which was wonderful because people didn't have to choose (and we didn't have to do the steak or chicken option on the response card). I would definitely recommend them and that you go to one of their Saturday open tastings. You won't be disappointed.

Delectables has got it all together. My only real complaint is that we provided containers to pack up both the leftovers and a plate for later since we knew that we would not be able to eat at the actual dinner. They did pack up all the bulk left overs to give to the planner to handle and the left over plates were given to the planner to put in our limo. We ended up at the hotel at midnight with a million crabcakes and no meal... Could have been a simple mix up, but the only negative thing I can come up with. My advice is to leave more specific instructions to follw.We loved the chateaubriand with horshradish chantilly sauce and saw many having seconds. I was amazed that they could cook it with a warm colored center for such a large group (100). The meat was tender and the service was very professional. Marylin Chapman was excellent to work with. I would use them again in the future.

The food and service was amazing with Delectables with the exception of one very unprofessional staff member. The majority of our experience with them was great!

We searched for our caterer for a long time and once we went to the tasting we knew they were the best. Everything was excellent and we couldn't have asked for anything else. I would recommend them to anyone looking for a caterer.

Food was Out of this World! Our guests raved about the quality of food. Great Bang for your buck!

Delectables did a great job for our wedding. The food was great that we had. You should definitely appoint someone to make sure you are saved some appetizers though. WE asked to be rbought appetizers during pictures, but they brought them over and offered them to the bridal party (we didn't even know they were there) and didn't come back so we never got to taste any of the appetizers from the wedding ... we were told they were yummy though. They do a great job and are professional. If you are thourough before hand with them you won't have to worry about a thing on the day of.

The tastings they have on the weekends helped immensly in getting a taste of what they had to offer. It was low pressure, and you could discuss what you liked or did not like. At the wedding, everyone said how great the food was, and the portions were huge! One thing I did not like is that I wanted any leftovers, as on our contract, and their waitstaff--without consulting me-- ate all leftovers. And it wasn't like 3 or 4 servings-- more around 8-10 guests that did not show up. I am already paying for them to be there, and I have to feed people for doing their job? I don't get free lunch at work just because I showed up, and I don't believe they should either. I still need to contact them about this issue. Other than that the food was great.

My fiancee and I were looking for non-traditional wedding fare and Delectables was extremely accommodating and creative when creating a menu that represented our tastes. We wanted southern style comfort food and our guests raved about the shrimp and grits, mac and cheese, and slider station. They were very easy to work with and know how to execute weddings which is very important when you have to get in/out of a venue in a set amount of time. The food, desserts, and ice sculpture were all wonderful!

Delectables Catering was amazing! Delectables catered my friends wedding so there was no doubt that I would use them for my wedding. The food was so good! We did 4 different food stations. They even cut all of our cheesecakes and helped serve them, even though they were from another vendor! The only issue we had was that the sweetheart table was initially neglected on water/wine service, but that was quickly resolved. Everyone loved the pasta station and mashed potato bar =) The food was amazing and the cost was very reasonable!

All I can say is WOW!! This is not your typical wedding food. My husband and I chose to have a buffet in lue of a seated dinner. At first I was afraid the food my be dried out sitting out, I was so wrong. Everthing thing was perfect.We chose the Herb Roasted Prime Rib and Tuscan Chicken. The Prime Rib was superb, but the Tuscan Chicken was phenomenal. Wish I could have the recipes for the chicken!! Think a few people had 3 helpings!! We also had the Yellow Rice and Black Beans. My new husband is from a Cuban family and all raved about how good the rice and beans were. All in all everybody LOVED the food, including my new husband and I. If I am ever in need of a caterer again, I will definitley be calling Delectables and so should you!!The new Mrs. Nicole Nunez

The food was hot and delicious! We have used this company before and for the price and quality of the food, its hard to beat this company! The wedding coordinator is not the nicest person ever, but at the actual event everything turned out delicious!!!

Very please with this caterer. Great food & Great service!!

We were very happy with the food. The fruit tree looked really cool! Wish they would of cleaned up a little more when they left, but overall we were very pleased with the food and service.

Really yummy food!! We were very pleased with the amount and quality of the food for our wedding reception. Bring lots of tuperware to take all the left over food home!!We received lot of compliments on our reception dinner. The cheese tortellini are the best!!

The food and the displays were amazing. Everybody LOVED our appetizers for cocktail hour and the dinner. As a matter of fact, my new mother-in-law is ordering us dinner for Christmas from Delectables. Marilyn, one of the managers, was so professional and wonderful to work with. She really knows her business. She took a lot of time going over all the details with me. Although, there were a couple setup mistakes, like we did not want a sweetheart table. We wanted to sit with our wedding party. And we paid for a cocktail server for dinner and they just stuck my white and red bottles of wine on the tables. So now my white wine that was supposed to be kept cold and poured was now sitting on the table getting warm. And we had several, several open bottles that were half full, but I still highly recommend them. We are still getting compliments on how wonderful everything was !!!

Delectables was an awesome choice for our wedding catering! Their prices were fair and reasonable. We were able to exchange things from our set menu without a problem. The servers and waiters were helpful and kind, and even set up our linens and centerpieces and took extra special care of the bride and groom on our big day. Some even helped direct guests and stayed to help breakdown and clean up. I couldn't have asked for better. The guests talked for a long time about how incredible the food was, and I loved their set-up at the wedding as well. We were very pleased with Delectables!

food and butler service was excellent. This is not your ordinary wedding buffet. They hand served coffee to our guests! The only bad thing I have to say is I was dissapointed in our premium bar. The liquor selection was pitiful! The open bar is through a different company contracted through Delectables.

The food was amazing and Delectables definitely worked with me to make my day special.

The food was delicious and everyone raved about it for months to come. We have used them since for parties it was so good. You don't expect such a beautiful display and great food at a wedding but this was supurb. I recomend them all the time. The reception hall look wonderful with the large selection of chair covers and table cloths etc to chose from and the way the food was arranged looked amazing and tasted even better.

Just to start off, I am a foody. I absolutely love to indulge in good food. My husband and I went on a couple of the tastings that Delectables offers on the first Saturday of every month. The first time we went we loved everything that we tasted. The second time we went we liked nothing of what we tasted. I had contacted Marilyn to request that the smoked gouda scalloped potatoes be on the next tasting menu. Never made it. I asked again for the following month, never made it. I had asked weeks in advance each time and it wasn't until I was very frustrated that they made a small sample for my soon to be mother -in-law and myself. I do have to say they were delicious!! I was disappointed that it took me to get upset to finally taste something before I would offer it to my guests.Other than that We felt their service was great. It was definitely more affordable than a lot of places and our food was fantastic. Everyone told us how much they enjoyed the food. Also, We decided not to have cake at our wedding but instead an ice cream sundae bar. Our guests loved it!!I DO NOT recommend their bartending service ......Lazzara's. They subcontract them and they were awful. Not prepared at all. They ran out of beer during the cocktail hour. They had to go get more and then they served warm beer,. They closed down one of the bars in the cocktail hour area and moved both bartendars to one location so the li e was really long for the guests. I would not recommend them to anyone for any occasion!!!!!

Delectables Catering was delicious! The food was great! They did EVERYTHING we asked for, and they even help to make the place look great (when my linens showed up late-not their fault). The only thing they did that I was unhappy with was a miscommunication. I thought I needed 120 adult guest, and had email them that I needed 120, and then called and told them to ignore the email, and I got charged for the full 120. They charged my credit card after I had already paid for the 118. When I tried to call them about it, they didn't call me back. That was after the wedding, so... When my brother in law asked for the extra meals (we had 5 no shows, plus the 2 extra meals they charged me after the fact)- they said we didn't have any. They did give us the left over appetizers, so that was nice. The stuff mushrooms are delicous! The steak and chicken dual dinner plate we has was yummy. I wish I was able to eat more of my dinner then I did.

Fantastic -- I don't think it could have been better. Delectables catered wedding and the rehearsal dinner -- our guests are still talking about the delicious food.When we wanted something different -- paella instead of traditional carving station -- they did it. Great staff.

The food for my reception was absolutely amazing! Everyone raved about it. I thought it was awesome as well. With that being said I felt that Delectables was a little unorganized. I was asked for the same information several times after I had already sent it. Then I was asked for a list of who specifically ordered what and the servers were still asking people what they ordered and giving people the wrong food so I was a little disappointed on that front. Even with that I would totally use them again!

They were flexible with me with the beverages and organized a package for me that they had never done before. They did a great clean up job and made sure that I had all of my things at the end. They tried to reschedule the tasting with me (this took place 3 months before the wedding and was scheduled 3 weeks in advance) because they booked too many things. Rescheduling was not possible for us because I had aready taken the time off of work to go and then when we got there they had us sitting on a sofa out in the hallway where people were passing and they store paperwork because the room where they usually do the tastings was being used. It was a bit ghetto. On the day of the actual event, they waited WAY too long in between serving the salad and the meal. People were already up and dancing because it was taking so long and people were coming up to us asking where the food was. Then they told us that they were waiting until myself and my husband finished our salad before they brought out the food.....that made NO sense to us at all. We were up and talking to people the whole time and had no idea that we were preventing the food from coming out. Some of the pasta was hard when it came out. Also, I had asked about my final payment a little over a week in advance and nobody got back with me. Then I got a phone call two days before the wedding from some rude person in billing saying "it's two days away, when did you plan on paying this?" She apologized after I explained that they were the ones who didn't get back to me on that. Still it was stress that I didn't need at the time.

Delectables is actually a GREAT company for catering, the food was as promised hot and very tasty. My only complaints would be the intermezzo (which was a bit melted by the time it was presented at our sit down dinner), the amount of time it took for the service to begin--I was informed that this was due to a number of key staff calling out and having to be replaced with some new very inexperienced replacements, and the fact that my mothers table (mother of the groom) was served last among the entire 150 guest in attendance (slight oversight by the manager for my event). I will say that Marilyn was PHENOMENAL! she really made planning a menu easy and fun. The tastings they every month was a very beneficial party of our planning given these tastings allowed us to sample pretty much everything on our menu and experience the different facets of the chef's culinary repertoire.Again, great company and maybe as the adage goes all good servers (in this case) can have a bad night....

Fantastic Food, Great Service and Wonderful Presentations. I have known Laurie Simpson for over 12 years and I honestly can say her food is absolutely delicious. I have been in the wedding business for 33 years and no one, absolutely no one comes close to Delectables Fine Catering.

Great Company.Professional Crew and the food is so delicious.Loved.Marcio Silveira

Delectables truly lives up to their name! First and foremost, their food is delicious. Everything I have ever had, has always been scrumptious! I am a very selective foodie and have never been disappointed. As a Wedding Planner, I rely on my Caterers to be timely and on point! Their food is fresh, hot and seasoned perfectly. The banquet staff are friendly and organized. Lynda is absolutely fantastic! Marilyn always responds promptly. I have found them to be consistent and continue to refer my clients to Delectables.

A fabulous caterer! If you have any event coming up, treat yourself and leave the food to the professionals! Once you do, you'll never go it alone again. They've won every award in the Tampa Bay area, justifiably so! If you haven't had their Baked Brie, you're missing out. Birthday, Wedding, Bar or Bat Mitzvah, Graduation, Retirement, banquet, fundraiser, whatever, Laurie and Crew will create the perfect menu to compliment your event.

Delicious dishes, wonderful presentation, and awesome staff is what you will always get with delectables!

Every year we provide the flowers for many venues - Lange Farm, Mirror Lake Lyceum, Davis Islands Garden Club and the Palm Harbor White Chapel to name a few - which require our Bride's to use the services of a Caterer. We see Delectables more often then any other Caterer and it is always a pleaseure to work with them. We always see the same crews and know the Food and Service will be great. Every month Delectables have an open house for their Brides and we have had the pleasure of attending several - while we are showcasing our flowers we also sample the same food as the Brides - so we know first hand its wonderfully tasty and very varied.If you need a first class caterer serving great food call Delectables - you will be delighted.
