Never heard of the place - was invited to small wedding reception - nicely decorated establishment that can accommodate approx. up to 50-60 people. Hors d'oeuvre's were cheeses and crackers, munchies and were actually quite tasty. Meal was beef brisket (which was very good), baked chicken quarters (both leg & thigh and wing & breast), spiral macaroni salad. 3 different types of sauces so you could choose. Also open bar. Overall experience very good. Will consider when having a smaller function. Would recommend this to all.

This is who we used to cater our wedding. Nobody finished their first plate and nobody went up for 2nds. Absolutely awful food for insane expensive pricing. The food actually tasted better the 2nd day after it was microwaved but still not that great. Huge mistake using this company for such a important day. Please do yourself a favor and find edible food for your loved ones when you need catering.

They were all around great. The services, how they worked with the prices and professionalism . I was defently pleased with everything and I will continue to utilize there services in any of my upcoming events. Everyone at our event was pleased and wanted to know who catered our services, I passed and I am still passing along the information.

Ordered one of their luncheon selections for our residents living in long term care for a mother's day celebration. Our order came out to over $400 and I tipped the driver $80, for 25 people. We received two pans of pulled chicken that was very dry. We were not given any extra sauce. There was a smaller bowl of salad and a bowl of chips. The salad, most certainly did not serve 25 people. I do not believe what we received, was worth all the money we spent. And to top it off, there wasn't follow up to see if we were satisfied. I emailed to tell them about our dissatisfaction and was told someone would get back me. That never happened. With all that being said I would not recommend this catering company, as their food was expensive and not worth it. The customer service was even worse.

My daughter communicated with this company at least 5 x = both my email and phone. She requested a "tasting" and was told they could notprovide one for at least two months and that they weren't sure of their staffing situation for her wedding (08.14.22) Then today she gets anemail from you stating you have booked her date. This was very unprofessional. You knew she wanted your catering service on her wedding date. It was hard enough to get you on the phone and now you do this. Very poor service - BUYERS BEWARE!!!

They catered a bridal shower that I attended. Everything was delicious and piping hot.

I have never written an online review but sadly feel that it is necessary to do today. First of all, my family has used TC for many, many years. Their food is always outstanding! Yesterday, we had a luncheon catered for our son's baptism. We were a small group of 15 adults and 5 kids. We ordered a variety of sandwiches, fruit, pasta and hummus. Over 1/3 of our guests were vomiting or had diarrhea within a couple hours of eating. I felt that it was important to contact Sandra so she was aware of what happened. I was asking nothing of them! The gentleman that answered the phone was horrified to hear what happened and apologized for it. He told me Sandra would be in touch with me soon. She called shortly after and I must say, with the worst public relations I have ever received! I was told that a "bug" is going around and that food born illness doesn't start that soon. Food born illness, in fact, begins 30 minutes to 8 hours after consuming the food. By this morning, all our guests were feeling fine. A "bug" would have lasted 24-48 hours. I did not contact TC to place blame on them. I am confident they handled our food as they normally would and suggested to her that this could have come from their supplier. Some food bacterias don't change taste immediately, so while consuming it, we would not have known. Also, it could have been a very minor trace of bacteria that if someone ate enough, they would be ill. The purpose of my call was to provide the information to them that we felt was important. As business owners ourselves, we would want to know when something went wrong. I received not even an apology, and hung up feeling like she could care less. She was certain this was not a result of their food. It was even brought to my attention that we didn't order much food. However the amount of food was irrelevant to what happened. We ordered food for 20 people, not a specific number of sandwiches. The amount of food is determined by the caterer. I was so excited to have TC cater our event. We have referred friends and family to them for many years, and nobody was ever disappointed. We even had guests that were thrilled to hear we selected them, knowing how delicious their food is. I originally would have thought to absolutely use them again despite what happened. However the lack of concern and compassion we received from Sandra, has now changed that original thought.

We recently used TC for a 50th birthday party. We wanted heavy appetizers and a real casual vibe. They were incredibly helpful in selecting an appropriate and diverse menu. Pulled pork, Buffalo chicken sandwiches, delish bacon mac and cheese, a large charcuterie board and sesame meatballs were the features. Our guests loved each. Reasonable pricing, helpful staff--it was excellent all around. We highly recommend Tasteful Connections!

Decided to give a little back and order from Tastefully Connections today. As much as it was nice to see them, the food was CRAZY delicious. The meatball dip may be my favorite dish I have ever eaten. Easy heat up and the baked goods I'm eating as slowly as possible to enjoy every bite.in other words they are gone. Thanks tasteful for a truly memorable meal.
I just wanted to say that the boxed lunches you provided on 1/14 were perfect. They were tasty, nutritious, and. presented well. The gluten free lunches were much appreciated by my family members. This was a family gathering for the sad occasion of my dear sweet mama's funeral. Your lunches helped to fortify us between events that day. Thank you for doing that perfectly.

Sandra and tasteful connections did a beautiful job with our company Xmas food on short notice. The food was on time, hot and tasty and beautifully presented. I will be recommending them for catering needs in the future. Thank you Tasteful Connections!

I wish I could adequately explain how grateful I am to Michelle, Sandra and all those at Tasteful Connections for helping make our daughter's wedding (which unexpectedly became a diy at-home wedding) a wonderful experience that left us happy we had an at-home wedding! They were hired somewhat last minute, but fit us in and immediately stepped up to communicate, provide detailed information, ask very helpful questions about items I had not thought of, and supply a detailed cost quote. All of this put my mind at ease knowing that I had hired a true professionally run business to cater our event. We opted for full service in order for us to be able to relax once the reception started. Due to this decision, we were able to offer passed hors d'oeuvres which I think always makes a reception classy! The service was extremely kind and courteous. We have two family members in their mid eighties and they were both given extra attention for which they were both very impressed.Although the service was full, it was as if everything was happening invisibly - they were so efficient and effortless. Of course, the food itself....I was receiving messages for over a week regarding how delicious the menu was. Additionally, I had one vegan in the crowd and she was thought of! Long review - but I want everyone who reads this to understand how completely, even overly, happy we are that we found Tasteful Connections.

I ordered a few items to be delivered based on the commercials I saw on TV but I was not impressed with any of the food or desert!! The way I was treated was good but I still won't order again!!
