Amici Catering provided an outstanding experience at our Chapter Night event at the Taliesin. Lori and her team were incredibly attentive and accommodating, ensuring that every guest felt special. The food, from the hors d'oeuvres to the main dishes, was exceptional, leaving our guests raving about the flavors. Some guests mentioned the food was the best they've had during their entire trip! Amici Catering's service and cuisine exceeded our expectations, and we wholeheartedly recommend them for any event. Thank you for making our evening truly memorable!

Choosing Amici catering for my wedding was the best decision I could have made for our food needs!! Lori is so easy to work with, organized and thorough. She makes sure that all the details are perfect for the event! She is incredibly professional and her staff were wonderful! They helped to make sure that our appetizers and dinner were not only delicious but perfectly timed and ran smoothly. The steak and chicken plus all of the sides were very tasty and our guests were also very impressed with the food. She also is very mindful to dietary restrictions when preparing her meals. We loved working with Lori and her team and would recommend them to anyone looking for an event in area!!

Lori and Amici Catering were fabulous! We celebrated my husband's big birthday in our home with 60 people. First, Lori nailed the menu: Asian and gluten-free for the birthday boy. She made sure the food was fun, delicious and interesting. The attention to detail was noticed by everyone: personalized fortune cookies dipped in gold and chocolate, lettuce wraps clipped with a very tiny clothes pin, stir fries and Pad Thai in take out boxes - amazing. I loved working with Lori. She's creative yet organized, a problem solver and makes things happen. We forgot olives for martinis and someone was sent to the store. The flow and timing were perfect. She knows how to throw an amazing party and her staff were unobtrusive, yet friendly and hardworking. Amici is a very professional organization and I very highly recommend them. Thank you, Amici and thank you, Lori.

Lori and Amici Catering catered our daughter's wedding on December 12 at The Creekside Inn in Sedona. She was a dream to work with - great ideas, timely, outstanding in every respect. The food was out of this world and planned a way to safely serve our guests during the COVID pandemic. Her staff was attentive and courteous from the minute they arrived until the reception ended. If you are in need of a wonderful caterer in Sedona or the Phoenix area, please contact Lori and her team!

We hired Amici for a party of about 50, and every dish was a HIT! The ingredients are fresh and local and the pricing is fair. Lots of value for the money! We’ll definitely use them again!

After speaking to several caterers and personal chefs, it was obvious during the first telephone conversation that Lori and her crew were heads and shoulders above the rest. Lori listened and quickly came back with a suggested menu themed around my husband's Polynesian 70th Birthday Party. I only did minor tweaking.....thrilled that she had listened and creatively altered some of the dishes toward that theme. She and her crew arrived promptly and set up discreetly during cocktail hour. The food was ready for our guests at the time we had requested. Now for the best part: everybody LOVED the food! As one guest put it, 'This food is amazing! I've never been to a party where so many people are gushing about the food!' Well said. This is a group that we will definitely use again.

Lori and her team did a fantastic job Catering a celebration of life for my husband in January in N. Scottsdale. The food was beautifully presented and delicious. Working with her from start to finish was very smooth and they were very thorough, having the answers to my questions before I even asked them. All of our guests commented on how top-notch it was!

I contacted AMICI Catering and worked with an employee by the name of Lori. I had a negative experience with her attitude and condescending manner. I did not feel we would have a good working relationship because she became very impatient with me during our interactions. She was very knowledgeable about her industry, but unfortunately lacked any empathy or compassion for a bride who does not. I would not recommend this company. I can't comment on food because I didn't taste it.

We used Lori, Scott and their amazing staff for a celebration of life for my nephew. It was a very difficult time for our family but they had a vision that was absolutely stunning and the food was amazing! They were so respectful and kind and even helped hand out programs and made sure guests had water at the service. They went so far beyond the call of duty we will use them every opportunity we get. I would highly recommend them. Will look forward to a happier occasion in the future!! Thank you to you all for taking care of my sister!!

Our family is going through the worst tragedy imaginable. Our beautiful son passed away.My husband and I wanted to plan a celebration of life party for him. We knew what we wanted but couldn't get it together enough to make it happen, so we decided to hire an event planner.After we initially spoke to Lori we knew she was our girl!Lori and her talented chef husband Scott were there to answer any questions we had. We put a lot of faith in their hands and they came through! Above and beyond!The day of the party Lori and her amazing crew showed up 2 hours early to set up and they meant business! When I went outside to see how everything looked, I was shocked!! It was WAY beyond our expectations! Everything was perfect! The decor! The ambiance! The food! The flowers! The crew! Everyone is still talking about how lucky we are to have found Lori! And raving about Scott's delicious food!Thank you Lori and Scott for bringing sunshine on a cloudy day!
Would recommend due to their tasty menu and kind staff!

Lori and her team at Amici Catering are some best in the business, hands down. She is responsive, on time, and never under delivers. I cant say enough about how happy I am with their services. Make sure to keep them at the top of your priority list when it comes to all of your catering needs.

I cannot give enough kudos to Lori and her staff. The food and set up were literally the BEST I have ever encountered! Lori was a joy to work with from finish to start. She was honest and reasonable. Everyone raved about the food and not one piece of leftover was thrown out. Her prices are unbeatable. Save yourself the headache and call her now, you will NOT be disappointed! Thank you!!

Such an incredible team of people, the food is always delicious and they truly make our parties successful! There is a reason that they are my only caterer I go to in Phoenix and I will continue to book Amici for all of our events in the future. You cannot go wrong by using Amici! Cheers!
