This week I had the pleasure to work with Stern's Catering for the first time and they did great! I was planning a luncheon with 80+ people and they showed up early, had all of the food warm and ready, and were extremely professional. I have used other caterers in the past and they would need 9 people to do what Miguel and Manuel did with just two! From the planning process to the delivery to the service and food, everything was excellent! Layla helped us the whole way through, notating all of the specifics that we needed and tailoring the menu to exactly what we wanted. She really listened to everything I said, and took every detail seriously. Such a professional group of people that are always there when you need them. I would recommend them to anyone and make sure you order their cordon bleu bites, they are amazing. -Summer read more

See all

You must call the Sterns if you need a catering company! I just got married and our appetizers and dinner were done by Stern's Catering. I was already thrilled with them BEFORE the wedding day. They are very nice people and extremely accomodating. I swapped sauces on the entee dishes, changed my choices for appetizers, changed the number of attendants by 25 people, added coffee service, changed the number of attendants again, throw in a vegetarian dish... no matter what my changes, they were happy to help. And great response time too. If I sent an email at 2 pm, I'd have an email back before 5 pm. Working with a well run company is fantastic, but of course you're hiring them for the food! I think a lot of people have an idea of what good food is vs. good catered food. If you use Sterns, you just won't have to worry about making that distinction. It is amazing food! Not amazing catered food... AMAZING FOOD! For appetizers we had the antipasto skewers and spanikopita. Delicious and flavorful! We had 2 entrees; pork chops with a balsamic glaze and chicken florentine. Both were cooked perfectly and still juicy! But my favorite item was the creamy mushroom rice. It was like a really rich risotto and I'm not ashamed to admit I used my roll to sop up the remaining sauce. And luckily for me, I was concerned about having enough food, so I ordered more than was necessary. I didn't realize that Sterns already makes a pretty hefty portion, so I had a ton of leftovers. The day after the wedding while everyone was hanging out at my parents' house, people kept sneaking into the fridge to pick at what was left. People were seriously fighting over who got the last pork chop (Grandpa won, because c'mon, who's going to fight Grandpa?!). Lastly, is the event service. We had 2 servers; both prompt, polite, and hard working. Always a smile like they were happy to be joining us. Of course I was late to my own wedding, and I was the only one who knew where things were supposed to go and all that. Since I wasn't there, they ran with it and were ready on cue without instruction needed. I ran into them again when I went to return a few items we borrowed... still smiling. I have received numerous compliments from my friends and family, and I know I'll use Sterns again. I suggest you do the very same! read more

One of my volunteer projects, Community Partners/CPS needed coffee to serve up to caseworkers as they picked up school supplies for their clients. Although my order was a small job and somewhat complicated with a two day delivery, Laila and the delivery staff treated us like a big job, delivering on time as specified with all the coffee condiments and a large covered urn that kept the coffee hot for the 4 hour time frame we needed it. I am so glad I found Stern's and happy to know they do so much more with their full catering service. I would highly recommend using Stern's Catering and hope to have the occasion to use them again soon. read more

I had Stern's cater for an event last week and from beginning to end it was flawless! They provide such professional service with the order taking all the way to the delivery. We had a gentleman name Carlos deliver the order. He was on time, actually a few minutes early and had everything on point that I ordered. I'm so glad I know about Stern's. It's such a relief to have a catering company you can depend on for good for and reliable service! Check them out if you haven't already, you'll be glad you did! read more

I just wanted to write another review for Stern's because their quality and service have continued to shine. We have used them for meeting lunches, employee events and just regular department lunches and the quality of service (not to mention the outstanding food) hasn't faltered. If anything, it has improved, if that was possible! The guys that come in and set up are so great. They take time to ensure everything looks perfect, so I basically do not have to do anything but let them into the room and tell them where to set up. The food: Our employees have tried a variety of the catering options Stern's offers and we have not been disappointed yet! I do have to add that we are quite partial to the fajitas, though. They are outstanding and the fresh guacamole is amazing. We love Stern's here at Advancial Federal Credit Union and highly recommend them to any business! read more

I have called upon the services of Stern's Catering Co for the past several years. They catered some breakfast but mostly lunches at our corporate office 3 to 4 days out of the week for events that would occur 2 to 3 times a month. Sheila Stern is professional and will make sure you get exactly what you want. She made it easy every time. Everyone on the staff has always exceeded our expectations with delicious food, original ideas, and exceptional service. They continue to provide quality results. I highly recommend their services and will use them for any catering needs I have in the North Dallas area. read more

Fantastic!! If I could give more than 5 stars I would! Stern's catered my sisters wedding this past weekend, about 130 people, and everything was perfect! Maddie was always quick to answer my emails, and questions. On the day of the wedding the staff came in, set up, was ready to go on time, the food was AMAZING! Everyone had great things to say! The staff was very helpful, and always smiling... they helped with cutting and serving the cake, they packed away our leftovers for us, and made everything spotless before they left. Definitely would recommend them to anyone looking for a caterer! read more

This past weekend I had the honor of working with Stern's catering as an event planner for Mayfield Events. I was HIGHLY impressed with both the professionalism and willingness to help of the staff. The wedding took place at the Filter Building at Whiterock Lake. Due to inclement weather we were forced to move the ceremony from outside to inside. The staff at Sterns went above and beyond to help our staff flip the space and keep the guests comfortable. They regularly asked if there were tasks that needed to be attended to and they were always polite. Sterns provided bar-tending services for two bars, served appetizers, a full meal, and cut the cake. They also assisted with the room flip and cleaned the area. I heard many guests discussing how wonderful the food was! I would highly recommend Stern's to any of my future clients. read more

Absolutely Terrible. All we have ever ordered is Corporate Lunches which are typically fairly simple. The platters that arrived with the stainless steal chaffing dishes were terrible and extremely unprofessional looking for a professional caterer. The food was good (not great) but our side dish (simple veggies) arrived incorrectly (stir fry veggies received in error) and the simple garden salad arrived with olives and bananas peppers (not typical on a garden salad) which was never communicated to me when placing the order. I explained to the manager that we need our events catered to perfection as they're corporate events so when something is incorrect it can have a poor reflection on us as a company. They seemed to understand and because they are close by I used them again but for a more casual event. For the next order I ordered wraps (4 different kinds - all the sauces for them on the side), salad (no olives and no banana peppers) and hot pasta. Again the food was okay and this time no errors. I used them again months later, I requested to repeat the previous order but explained I wanted a different kind of hot pasta and would like to add 16 cookies. Pretty simple right? WRONG. 1 out of the 4 kinds of wraps was wrong. The salad came with olives and banana peppers again, and our 16 cookies arrived in the form of a desert tray with a few cookies and other mini deserts. No biggie. This event was more casual than the first event, hence the wraps, so I just asked for a discount because of the errors. Mind you I didn't request (nor was I offered) a discount for the issues I had with the first order, which I explained was for a VERY VERY ELITE AND PRIVATE LUNCH so everything needed to be on time and in order. The Manager calls me and immediately accused me of lying about not receiving on of the wrap options I ordered stating "our cook states he definitely sent them." Naturally I am like, I have no reason to lie about not receiving something or something being incorrect. This is for a corporate event. A discount goes back to my company not into my pocket. Really lady? Then she makes excuses for the staff person who took the order stating that she was confused because they offer hot pasta and cold pasta. HUH? I told her the pasta order was fine so why is she even discussing that with me and pointed out there are countless restaurants/catering companies that offer different kinds of pasta just like they offer different kinds of wraps, salads, etc. and its the staff members job to make sure they know what kind the customer wants. Seriously? Before she could provide an excuse for how they mixed up a cookie order for a mini desert tray I explained to her how ridiculous it was that when you have a history of messing up with a client, you call the client and try and make excuses for your staff's errors and then BLAME THE CLIENT for being "PICKY" for requesting the sauce on the side, no banana peppers and olives on a garden salad (WHICH ISN'T USUALLY ON A FREAKING GARDEN SALAD), and nice serving trays WHEN THE EVENT IS FOR A FORMAL ELITE BUSINESS EVENT (not a big deal on more casual settings obviously) then we will no longer be doing business with you. Have a nice day. The only thing I should have heard from her is, "We truly apologize for the error. We know this isn't the first error you've encountered with us, please accept this discount for the errors and we hope you will still consider using us in the future." THAT IS EXACTLY OPPOSITE OF WHAT HAPPENED. The level of unprofessional-ism is INSANE. You get better service placing a freaking catering order with Subway than you do with Stern's Catering. KEEP IN MIND I have been working with different catering companies for corporate events for some time and never experienced so many issues (that are simple to execute) and then UNIMAGINABLY POOR SERVICE when the time comes to make it right with the customer due to those issues. The orders I placed were drop off delivery orders. Perhaps they take things more seriously when they are staying and serving their clients and have to look them in the face when something is wrong and watch how their screw up changes the event. I have noticed that many catering services tone down the level of customer service when they're just dropping off the food versus staying and serving the guests throughout the event. read more

I was part of a wedding party that helped coordinate the food and we did not go wrong by choosing Stern's! The process was seamless! Layla was a great contact and handled everything in a timely manner. She was able to take care of all the paperwork and payments over the phone as I was living out of state. When the big day arrived, they showed up with exactly what we talked about during the tasting and with the exact food we tasted. Thank you Stern's for making our evening stress free. read more

We used them for my daughters wedding, they were very easy to work with, very friendly, professional and accommodating. We did a pasta bar and everyone seem to enjoy the food. read more

We hired Stern's for our wedding, and my wife and I could not have been more pleased. They wow-ed us with their tasting. They met us at the venue to go over logistics. They carried out our plan perfectly. Everyone complimented the food and professionalism of the catering staff. Best decisions we made. Before you select your caterer, give Stern's an opportunity. read more

Stern's catered one of our office lunches, and it was a popular one. The grilled salmon had great flavor, but the pieces were a little small. Plan for 2-3 pieces for each person. Lots of fresh vegetables and healthy. Many in the office have requested Stern's for lunch again. read more

Absolutely amazing company. The food was great, the people are incredibly nice. They arrived to my event on time, were prepared to serve the food on time, cleaned up on time... Everything was great. The servers were very friendly and they even helped out when our event location's staff was running way behind. I can't describe how awesome they were. I definitely 100% recommend them to anyone and everyone. read more

I can't wait to use them for our next event! read more
