We were so impressed with Deco Catering. They made the entire process so easy, and the food was incredible! We received so many compliments about how great it was. They were accommodating, took feedback/changes, and had so many great options to choose from. Highly recommend!

TL;DR: Communication maybe isn't the smoothest but overall the food is absolutely delicious and the staff are efficient and capable. There are so many excellent catering options, but few could accomodate the varied menu that we wanted for our wedding. The Deco had incredible variety and boasted the use of fresh seasonal ingredients. I was worried about quality when it came to serving so many options, but each dish was as impressive as the last. We set up a tasting a year before our event. The building was small and a little industrial; it was clean but didn't feel very inviting. They brought us the food that we had selected to try in advance, and left us to sample in peace. Everything was incredible. Foods ranged from "this is good but not my style" to "I'm still dreaming about those phyllo mushroom triangles." Staff returned to get our opinions, talk options, and pack up our leftovers for us. It felt wrong to leave a "restaurant" without paying for our meal, but there was no charge. I very much appreciate the chefs cooking so many things for just two people to try. We left knowing this would be our caterer. Communication was decent overall. Employees were friendly and knowledgeable, but replies would get a little slower during their busy season. Some things we had talked about during the tasting didn't get written down, and we ended up having to piece together some of our decisions from memory. They were patient and answered all of our questions but there were still a few small errors and miscommunications during both the planning and the event. They were quick to manage and accomodate any issues that came to their attention, but tiny things here and there would slip by. The staff on wedding day worked hard and took care of everything within their power to take care of. We had some initial preferences that needed going over again, as it sounded like communication between them and home base staff was also a little incomplete. Again, a few small errors and miscommunications but no major issues or tragedies. I realize I have been pretty vague in this review regarding any specific errors, but I didn't feel they were important nor relevant enough to post publicly. However, I'm happy to share privately if The Deco or potential customers are interested. All of my guests were impressed by the delicious food, and were none the wiser about any little errors. The day was a huge success, and I would hire The Deco again. Bonus: One of the staff caught me sneaking back into the building to nosh cupcakes before my guests found me again. Bless them for minding their business. I wish you happiness, good fortune, and a cupcake. <3

We were beyond pleased with The Deco catering. Our food was incredible, and multiple people commented how it was the best wedding food they've ever had! They made the whole process from start to finish very easy to understand and plan. On the day of our wedding they were available and on top of everything. Perfection!

*PEANUT AND TREE NUT ALLERGY FRIENDLY* Deco Catering was more affordable than the other preferred caterers for our venue, but you’d never know it. We did the taco bar and people were raving about the food. The cake was so good people were asking me where we got it from so they could order some themselves. Our appetizers also garnered compliments. I didn’t have to worry at all about the place settings or cleaning up. Best of all, they were able to accommodate my severe peanut and tree nut allergies, even for the cake! I know food can be such a big stressor for those of us with allergies, so it’s great to have a company that understands how important it is.

We used Deco Catering for our wedding and overall had a great experience. The pasta bar was a huge hit—guests loved it, and I really appreciated that they offered gluten-free and vegan options. It came with breadsticks, salad, and protein choices, which made it feel like a complete meal. The cake was delicious, and they also offered a vegan/GF chocolate mousse that was a big success. We added three appetizers (spanakopita, bacon-wrapped dates, and potato bites with dill sour cream), all of which were quickly eaten, plus a late-night pretzel and cheese bar that everyone raved about. Leading up to the day, the company was excellent to work with—very communicative, helpful, and the tasting beforehand was such a fun, reassuring part of the process. They also went above and beyond with setup, arranging linens and folding napkins at no extra charge. That said, I do have some complaints about the day-of service. The staff on-site seemed disorganized: food came out later than planned, there was a lot of confusion around serving the vegan and GF meals, and unfortunately one of our tiramisus was never cut or served despite people asking for it. I couldn’t find anyone to help with it, and I also never got the leftovers back, so it felt like $80 wasted and such a shame because it was so tasty. We also almost didn’t get our cake leftovers returned either—it only happened because I happened to run into an attendant in the parking lot who had them (maybe in one of their cars). Despite those hiccups, the food itself was wonderful, and the planning process was smooth and stress-free. I’d still recommend Deco Catering for their creative menu options and helpful team, but I’d advise couples to be very clear about expectations for the day-of staff to avoid similar issues.
