We hired City Kitchen for our daughter's wedding, and they absolutely knocked it out of the park! The food was delicious, beautifully presented, and exactly what we had hoped for. They arrived on time, fully prepared, and their team was incredibly friendly and professional. From setup to service, everything was smooth and stress-free. We ordered Chicken Marsala and Sirloin Steak and both received high marks from our guests. Our apps were fruit skewers and the Gouda and Bacon Mac & Cheese bites - both were very good. Fruit was fresh! The mashed potatoes were a huge hit - creamy and delicious. (This review is making me hungry.) Our guests raved about the entire meal, and we couldn't be happier with the experience. I also found them to be much more reasonably priced than many quotes we received, although they were not the lowest price. Highly recommend them for any event--big or small! read more

Ready for a food adventure? Cause I've got one for you. So I've been hearing about this place from a fellow co-worker and it sounded so crazy I had to go check it out. Ok, before I go further with the review let me give you two facts you will need to make your decision about this place. First, this fine restaurant is located in a old business park off the beaten path (and I mean beaten). I thought I was on some wild goose chase (or looking for the elusive Snipe) when trying to find this place. I'll try to make it easier for you to find, when you enter the business park, it's the first building on the right (go all the way to the end). (P.S. look at the satellite mode on the map - I put the marker right on top of it) And, keep in mind that this is a caterer first and a cafe second. You are going to get plastic ware, and the server (though polite and helpful) is probably one of the staff stuck with doing that duty for the day. So you may have to get their attention from the kitchen, and you might not see your server for long periods of time - the server I had kept retreating to the back. Now that's out of the way, let me explain the food. Fantastic!! This was top-notch fine catered like food from a distinguished chef's menu (and apparently award winning considering all the trophies). No wonder so many cops and medical professionals stop in here. I had the Special which was the Pesto Chicken (see pic) with Orzo and Asparagus (which came with the choice of soup or salad - I chose the Caesar Salad). Everything was cooked perfectly and even though I hate sun-dried tomatoes -from past experiences- I really enjoyed eating theirs. And the cookie...... oh my... just look at the pic. Yes, it's as delicious as it looks (I need to see if I can order those by the dozen). But why 5 stars if I just got great food and ok service? The wall of thank you letters. Besides catering for local city functions and weddings, they also cater to a ton of non-profit organizations and local schools. And that's why they get 5 stars from me (I can deal with mediocre service). So if you are able to make the hours (they are only open Mon - Fri 11 AM to 2 PM) then I couldn't recommend this place enough and I will surely be back there for more myself. read more

I just had the best lunch I ever had. I truly enjoyed my meal. I apologize, I didn't take pictures. I just dug right in. I had the salmon with asparagus and mash potatoes. So yummy. The salmon was not dry. Tender asparagus and cheesy mashed potatoes. The green salad with pecans was awesome as well. The marble chocolate cheesecake was heaven on earth. Chocolaty but not too sweet. This was a corporate event but I will definitely call them up the next time I need a cater. I recommend them 100%. read more

Zero stars is what I give city kitchen. Nightmare to try to work with. Lisa is unprofessional, does not return phone calls or emails. When she finally does after you complain to the venue that recommended her, she calls and says, you called? Never listens to the voicemail or read the email. I tried hard to get her to earn my business, but I'm going to say I dodged a bullet. If a company makes you chase them down to get your business, they will be worse once you have put your money on the table. Can not even imagine how horrible their service would be if we used them for our 65 person event. In addition, they cost the venue we wanted to use the booking. Not that the venue cared either. So, take your business to a company that wants your business, not one that acts like this is a side gig or part time job. read more

WOW. Just wow. Heard about City Kitchen from some neighborhood folks. Has been in the 'to do' lunch list for weeks. The chicken tortilla soup had a deep, complex, not too spicy broth that was slightly thickened, not runny clear like so many. When my entree arrived, I took my first bite from the green bean/carrot medley. Ever have one of those food moments when flavor just goes 'boom' in your mouth? There was a unexplained smokiness to them, but no char. The waitress wasn't letting me in on the secret either, in spite of my begging. And so went the rest of my meal. Hubby wasn't overly impressed with his City Hero sandwich and wished he'd ordered the special or a burger. But no matter, the bite of green beans and carrots I was willing to share made up for the shortfall and we both gave City Kitchen a 'Thumbs Up' and will add it to the lunch rotation. read more

City Kitchen - Pecan Chicken, Orzo, Green Beans and Carrots - Caterers Near Me - Fort Worth, Texas

Affordable and tasty sandwiches/food! This is my go to spot when I want to grab lunch close to school. Portion is huge, food is decent and price is affordable! My favorite is the chicken panini with avocado, sautéed onion, mayo, lettuce and tomato! The bbq house chips are great also. Burgers here are decent as well. Not crazy about the turkey burger though; the party looked so artificial. They also make the food super quick so I never have to wait long. read more

We hired City Kitchen in Fort Worth for a wedding. They were prompt in arriving and in cleaning up after. However, they did not bring the foods that we had ordered. The pork dish had a totally different stye and sauce than the one we had ordered. They also brought a different vegetable than that was ordered. One guest complained that she saw the caterer employee scattering and spreading crackers on the tray during the happy hour. It seemed unprofessional not to have the cheese and fruit trays arranged and prepared before they are shown to the guests. I have left this review before, but it vanished, so I am repeating it again. read more

Industrial setting hides the culinary gem of City Kitchen. Worth the trek to get there! These local renowned caterers have unbelievable food that make up for the plain Jane lackluster interior. My husband and I both had the delightful pesto chicken, hand cut and hand made mashed potatoes and grilled veggies - we ate every bite and wished for more (and we are not heavy eaters). Mouth watering cookies - 2 each, mine chocolate chip and white chocolate and his oatmeal raisin and sugar - were as tasty as the meal - I can't wait to go back! read more

City Kitchen was wonderful to work with from start to finish! Lisa was prompt and professional in communication, and a huge highlight of working with them was the tasting we were able to do. They gave us a to-go tasting because of COVID, and every single thing we ate was to die for!! It was hard to choose since all the options were so delicious! Lisa helped us work within our budget and gave us plenty of options to help us have the best experience without spending more than we planned. We had no concerns about things running smoothly, and we got tons of compliments about the food at the reception. If you're looking for a caterer for your wedding, we can't recommend City Kitchen enough! read more

City Kitchen catered a party at our home for about 35 people last night. I can't say enough about how wonderful the experience was. We had ordered a variety of appetizers, cheese and fruit as well as desserts. City Kitchen provided two servers to deliver, set up, serve and clean up. They showed up on time, set up beautifully and provided wonderful service throughout the evening. Oh, and the food, nothing short of amazing. For the first time in my experience, every bite was gone. Our guest loved the food as did we. Without hesitation, I can honestly say that this was the best catering experience we have ever enjoyed. In summary, great food, great service, fair price and all done in a very professional manner. Hats off to City Kitchen. We will be doing business with you again soon. read more

City Kitchen catered our wedding on 9/1/19. Michelle and staff were simply excellent! The presentation and food was awesome! All the guests commented on how tasty the meal was and how attentive and pleasant the staff were. I would definitely use City Kitchen again for my special events! Thanks for making our wedding day extra special!! read more

I almost didn't want to post a review to keep this a hidden secret. We had the pulled pork which was the best pulled pork I have ever tried. The soups were delish and the dessert was excellent. read more

City Kitchen catered our work event today and it was fabulous! We wanted food that was light but elegant. The chicken and beef skewers were both tender and delish, loved the risotto balls, fruit and veggie trays were fresh beautifully displayed. The servers were the BEST and patient as we had to wait for tables to be set up. They also brought the most awesome vanilla cake with event logo and cake balls. Thanks for helping make our event awesome!! read more

We contacted three different caterers for our company Christmas Celebration. Based on Hal's suggestions we opted for City Kitchen. Sometimes we get good service and "blah" food and sometimes we get good food and "blah" service. Not so in this case. The food and the service were amazing. We would definitely recommend Hal and his team and will use them again in the future. read more

Once you finally find this hidden jewel you will be so glad you did. Yes it's in a full fledge warehouse district. Yes it's a catering business with a cafe going as they conduct catering business functions. However it's all good. Fresh, fine catered food indeed. I had the hero sandwich with the homemade BBQ chips and for dessert two decadent chocolate fudge cookies with white chocolate chips. Got the brownie and oatmeal raisin cookie for later. Ha!! FOOD HEAVEN!!! The server is one of the chef staff from behind the scenes so if you are bent on be catered to hand and foot then don't go looking for that. Yes you get good service but they are running a catering business first and we get to enjoy some of the good food fare at a luxury on site so keep that in mind. Hands down EXCELLENT!!! When I'm in Fort Worth I will bring everyone to my hidden gem!!! Now back to my cookies and brownie!! Yummmm!!!! read more

I just returned from an event catered by City Kitchen. The asparagus we absolutely the best I have ever eaten. Large scrumptious blackened shrimp, fried mac & cheese balls, tomato/mozzarella sandwiches, fruit bowls, brownies, cheesecake, cookies, on and on. Loved it. We are going back this week to try the restaurant for lunch. Close to downtown Fort Worth. read more

Hidden gem inside industrial park. They have a different lunch special every day. I also love all their soups and sandwiches. I've been eating here for years and never tire of it. Highly recommended if you work around the area. It is rather hard to find if you don't know what you are looking for, but don't let that scare you off. read more
