We prepared an Berenjena a la Miel (Eggplant with Honey) as our appetizer, Mixta Paella as our entree and a Tarta de Santiago (Almond Cake) for dessert. Everything was delicious and Chef Yvette is a wealth of knowledge. She is such a patient instructor and she also entertained us with tales of her travel adventures. It was such a fun, unique evening and we would all highly recommend booking a cooking class with Chef Yvette.

We are so thankful to the team at Groovin Gourmets for doing a wonderful job with our wedding…read morecatering (and venue setup!). Everyone we spoke to (venues, coordinators, etc.) recommended Groovin, and as soon as we reached out we understood why - from the very beginning they were incredibly responsive, and happy to answer our many (many) questions. Kaylyn made the planning process easy, helping us to develop a staffing plan to help with the set-up of our venue (The Workshop by T&D, which was also great). Groovin staff came the day before to set up ceremony chairs and then immediately after the ceremony efficiently moved all the chairs to the other side of the venue for dinner. They helped us coordinate rentals with Party Perfect and had all the right answers (and questions) during our on-site venue walkthrough. As for the food itself, everything was delicious! People always tell you that you won't eat at your own wedding, but the food was so good that we sat and ate our entire plates. Guests raved and two friends told us that they even came up with targeted strategies to chase down their favorite hors d'oeuvre when they came out. We especially recommend the pork belly hors d'oeuvre and the szechuan salmon entree. From start to finish, Groovin' was efficient and professional, and we would highly recommend them for any event.

All of the caterers in the area have delicious food and Groovin' provided nothing less than exceptional, but it was their customer service that sets them head and shoulders above the rest. During our tasting, we enjoyed complimentary champagne upon arrival after we parked in our reserved and personalized parking space out front. The table was set beautifully, and dishes were presented exactly as they would be on Wedding Day. We were impressed from the jump, and our love of Groovin only grew once we tried the delicious foods! Throughout the process, Michelle was responsive to my MANY emails and questions, and on wedding day, all of our guests were impressed with the professionalism, kindness, outstanding service, and DELICIOUS food! My friends continue to rave about the hot honey chicken biscuits!

I met Joe DeFazio at his stand at the South of the James market, and boy can he talk a good game…read more He's from the north-east, moved to Richmond in the early 80s, and has been cooking italian food down here ever since. I think he used to have an actual restaurant, but now he just focuses on catering- corporate events, weddings, etc. He was at the market making sandwiches (which looked awesome, he was sneaking me pieces of proscuitto and arugula while he was making the sandwiches, and it was delicious!) and he had a few risotto balls and scotch bonnets ... I had never had a scotch bonnet so I tried it- turns out its a giant ball of sausage with a whole egg inside it! The sausage was really flavorful (homemade from what I could tell), though the egg was hardboiled inside and I like'um soft-boiled (although I am sure they are supposed to be hard-boiled) since they are sitting inside a sausage ball... but overall very tasty. So, would I talk to Mr. DeFazio if I had an event I needed catered? Yup. Will I visit his stand next time I am at the farmers market? Oh absolutely. I'll be the small woman ordering half a dozen sandwiches to bring home...

I booked Mosaic Catering for my wedding after tasting their food at the Richmond Wedding Expo, and…read morejudging by the many compliments from all of our guests, we clearly made the right decision! John Lilley worked with us from beginning to end to create a menu for dinner, choose cocktail hour appetizers, answer my many questions, and ensure we had everything we needed for an amazing party. Mosaic's prices were very reasonable, especially considering the quality of the food and service, and they made sure everyone had more than enough to eat. The servers were amazing, and I was very glad I had added the wine table service, as it made drinks during dinner very easy for everyone. Their bartenders helped keep the vibes high and Mosaic kindly accommodated my groom's request for a specific beer. John even brought the wedding party food from the cocktail hour as he knew we would be taking photos and miss out otherwise - just another example of the amazing service from this team. Overall, I cannot recommend Mosaic Catering enough, if you're looking for delicious food and great service, this is the caterer for you!

Being they are NY born and raised Puerto Rican's she also thought it would be great to share the beauty of PR cuisine and Harlem South RVA did not disappoint! My sister was blown away by the customer service and the meals she'd previously ordered from their food truck and found they also offer catering! So she ordered appetizers of empanadas (chicken and beef) which they can customize...they were well seasoned and fried to perfection, Pernil (roasted pork) tender pieces of pork that literally melted in your mouth and very flavorful, Arroz con Gandules (rice and pigeons peas) this side dish was so familiar as it was part of one of the first dishes my bonus mom prepared many years ago, and last but certainly not least was the fried sweet plantains a bit of sweetness that paired so well with the entire meal! Their hours vary but they are on Facebook and Instagram where the days/hours are updated. Sis, bonus mom and extended NY family approved of all the dishes as some of the best authentic PR cuisine! Give them a try!
