I am very sad. There were no pickle appetizers, and no pickle themed anything on the menu. They didn’t even have pickle juice on the menu. This place has nothing to do with pickles.

We hired Pickles catering for our staff holiday luncheon. It was some of the best Italian food I have ever had. My staff can't stop talking about it. Thank you Anna! You and your team were wonderful to deal with. We will definitely be contacting you for future events.

This company catered a wedding I attended last weekend & knocked it OUT OF THE PARK! Such great food (esp the pizzas), grest service, & the staff was FUN. They kept the buffet line moving so quickly. Everyone had full bellies & full hearts. Thanks, Mama D's!

We used Pickles Catering for our daughter’s graduation party, and it was perfect! Anna and Gabby were amazing and easy to work with. The food was delicious, and our party guests raved about how wonderful the food was. We even had one guest say they felt like they were at a 5 star restaurant not at a grad party! Everything was perfect! I would recommend Pickles Catering to anyone looking to cater an event!!

Didn't seem to be open.Didn't look like there was indoor seating available anymore.Looks like it is more of a pizza take out place now, but not sure.There is a sign on the front entry door saying "go to back door for pizza pick up". The back door was locked.Haven't been to this building in a few years but it used to be a nice cafe. Not anymore.I got a very nice response from the new owners. It appears that they are no longer a cafe. Too bad for me. I'm glad to see other reviews about the catering that they are doing now. Changed my rating up to the middle.Good luck with the new business! ?

Anna and crew are the hardest working people in the catering business. They always provide high quality food at a fair price. That's probably why they've been in business for over 25 years!! Anna really knows her stuff, this helps take the guess work out of trying to organize an event. Not to mention she's so helpful and friendly with the entire process too.

THE BEST EXPERIENCE!!! They have catered 2 parties for me now and the service, communication and FOOD is wonderful. The pizza is a huge hit. We recently tried their specialty pizzas and people are still commenting. This is the real deal. A family owned business with roots in Italy, and you can tell. Will be using again.

"High-quality affordable catering for guests 25-500+" you should probably update that so you don't have to waste people's time telling them it will be way too much food and they should call Famous Dave's. Next time I will just call Famous Dave's, at least they are happy to help!

I was blessed to have known Mama Donato and grateful to have experienced truly delicious Italian food made by hand from her. These recipes have thankfully been passed down to her children and family and honestly taste just as amazing.The customer service is incredible. They always put community and the customers first. In April, 2020, my brother was hospitalized with Covid 19 and the hospital was on lockdown. To help him, there was only thing to do.....food. One teary eyed phone call later, Pickles Catering had 24 manicotti meals ready. I delivered them to the hospital main door with a note of gratitude to the medical team caring for my brother.Gaby and Anna from Pickles Catering made a difference that day in the lives of many and I will forever be indebted to them.To the customer who had a bad experience, I'm truly sorry. After reading my message, I'm in hopes that you will see Anna and Gaby really do work hard to ensure their customers have a good experience.I highly recommend them!My best, Kim

The best homemade Italian food you will find made by Italians! The catering is so delicious and so reasonable! They will do everything to make your event amazing! From Woodfire pizza to Lasagne, you won’t be disappointed!

Pickles was one of the recommended caterers through our wedding venue and we are so happy we went with Anna and her team. The food was amazing ( we heard that from many of our guests) and the service was outstanding. Working with Anna was a joy and she definitely makes it a more personal experience.Thank you Anna & Pickles for being part of our best day ever.

Top notch family business that knows their stuff. Great friendly people that are extremely helpful with getting you what you need. The food is absolutely amazing as well!!! Pickles catering has to be the best catering service in the entire metro area.

Anna & Gabby are fantastic to work with. The food they create is delicious! From the Mama Donato’s woodfired pizzas at their pop ups to the appetizers we served at my husband’s 60th birthday event, they hit it out of the ball park. I can’t say enough about the service and quality they provide!!100% recommend PICKLES Catering!!

We had Pickles cafe cater our wedding, they came up with a plan for the reception setup, worked with our family to get it set up, had more than enough pizza, appetizers, and sides for leftovers and the staff was fantastic, highly recommended service and family company!
