ZERO STARS!! Dropped our wedding catering contract 4 days before wedding! You have no idea how much I wish Google allowed you to write a review for ZERO STARS!We hired All Around Town Catering for our wedding on 11/18/23 for 200 guests. We signed the contract, paid the $500 deposit. Finalized menu and numbers a few weeks before the event, then ALL OF THE SUDDEN, Mark (the owner) stopped responding to our wedding panner. He refused to respond to email, calls, texts, etc THE WEEK BEFORE THE WEDDING as we were trying to pay the remaining balance for the full invoice.FINALLY, on the Tuesday before my wedding (4 days before the contracted event) he texted my wedding planner back saying he gave our contract away to another caterer because "he was closing down his catering business" and the new caterer should have called to handle it. AT NO POINT was he planning on alerting us that he no longer planned on doing our event - he just passed us off to another company AND DID NOT COMMUNICATE THIS WITH US AT ALL. Are you freaking kidding me??The wedding planner scurried to get in contact with this random, not contracted caterer to make the impossible happen and get menus finalized, invoices paid, and schedules communicated. Mark said they would charge us the same, however, he did not give the new caterer our $500 deposit, so that was not credited on the ew caterer's invoice and we have to pay an additional $500 than we had budgeted for. The new caterer assured us they would be exceed our expectations, but when guest arrived to the reception, the food and buffet were NOT ready and the guests had to wait 20 minutes before serving began. So they missed their scheduled serve time. Unacceptable.DO NOT BOOK WITH ALL AROUND TOWN. DO NOT BOOK WITH MARK!! DO NOT TRUST THIS COMPANY TO UPHOLD THEIR END OF THE CONTRACT. DO NOT TRUST THIS COMPANY. PERIOD.

The taste test we had was amazing. However when we had our daughters wedding it was utter disappointment for the reception dinner. We ordered for 150 which he assured us it would feed 180. The reason that's important is because my wife wanted me to order for less and I said I would rather have more food than not enough. Wow was he wrong. We had 129 chairs set out and not all were full and 20 in the wedding party. We had over 30 that couldn't stay for the reception. We still ran out of food and none of it was hot. We didn't get the food we ordered and also got food we didn't order. The waffles were eggo waffles not the Belgium waffles that we tried at the taste test. The pineapple sausage we ordered never even made it, the sausage was terrible & the bacon was not crisp. The biscuits were burnt and we ran out of gravy and syrup with about 30 people left in line. We went on and on about how good the food was going to be after the tasting and were looking forward to it. His workers were great and apologized and said how sorry they were. Also he texted my daughter during the reception and said he heard more people showed up than we anticipated which is a wrong assumption on him and his workers according to the numbers listed above. The venue only held 150 max even if everyone would of stayed for the reception. Just a complete disappointment. FYI this is my first bad review I have ever done.

If you are interested in getting breakfast, lunch or dinner they do it all. From big events like weddings or something simple like lunch for your work crew, they can really do anything. Excellent service and top notch food, I will be using them again soon.

Mark & his crew catered a 300 person work banquet for us and did a fantastic job! Everything was set up on time and easily accessible. The food was amazing and I had many people asking where we had gotten it from. They were also by far the best price of all the quotes we got. We will definitely use them again. Thanks!

Do not use! We ordered via ezcater online. On their website, it lists the entree, one pre-chosen side, and then you get to pick a side. Unfortunately, we based on what we ordered, two sides (mashed potatoes and dressing) and the rolls were missing. We called Mark with Ann’s All Around Town directly, who proceeded to yell at us about how he called us the day prior and we did not call back. In my defense, he did call and I missed the call, but he did not leave a voicemail. He then told us that we should have ordered from him directly, and that he would text a picture of the order he received from ezcater, and then he HUNG UP IN OUR FACES. He never texted us and never tried to make the situation right. This is our first family Christmas dinner since my mother died of Covid last year. I have been dreading Christmas. This was the last thing I needed. I do not recommend this company.

Mark catered my daughter's Wedding and the food was delicious! All the guests enjoyed the food. He was reasonably priced too!

Ann and Mark were pleasant to work with! Everything from start to finish was great. Mark was great at communicating and accommodating changes to the menu. He could not make it to our event, because of another event, but Ann showed up on time and everything went well. The food was fantastic and we received MANY compliments from our guests. Also, they are reasonably priced! Please, consider them for your next event!

We are very grateful to Mark after we asked him to complete what was seemingly an impossible task. The food he provided for our gathering was excellent and we had several people ask where it came from. I will definitely recommend using All Around Town Catering for your catering needs

For the first time my family decided to have our Thanksgiving meal catered this year. Mark Giorgi was up to the task and my family is very particular about our "traditional holiday" meal. We were all very happy with the food (turkey, dressing, squash casserole, broccoli, peas, mashed potatoes, ham, rolls) and hope to do a repeat next year. We ordered food for 10 and had more than enough for leftovers. I highly recommend this business for your catering needs.
