We had a bad experience with Gaylord at a special event at our Sun Prairie UMC. They were late, food was wrongly apportioned and 250 people sat waiting to eat. They agreed in writing to give us a partial refund, and now are refusing. They are not being honorable people.

We had a mixed experience at our home event. Arranging the catering went well. They were flexible and accommodating. The delivery was late by about 30 minutes. The caprese skewers were excellent. The fruit plate was very good. The turkey meatballs were poor…dry, odd tasting and seemingly frozen to begin with. The mushrooms (stuffed) were very good. Chicken tacos were poor-lousy tortillas, no condiments, chicken was mediocre tasting. Waffle chicken sandwiches were really aweful. Frozen chicken on frozen or maybe fresh waffles with lame syrup—waste of money and cold…all the food was cold. The cheeseburger sliders actually were decent. At the end the hardware left at our house sat for a few days in our driveway. They should have collected sooner. Mediocrity does not lead to repeat customers. If a future in catering is desired there is need for significant improvements.

They cater for Fortrea in Madison. Claims to have improved since being called on carpet a month ago. I can say it has not gotten better. Soups are served with no liquid in them. Pancakes are hard as rock. Milk is delivered and it is sour. Fish sandwiches are gray thin things. Oranges are delivered here and they are green. Food is not proper temperature when delivered. Breaksticks are just pieces of dough. I couldn't imagine what their real catering would be like. Save yourself time, money and aggravation and DON'T USE THEM.

Great food and service.

I have been privy to their cooking for several weeks straight as they cater to Fortrea [previously Labcorp]. Simply put I wouldn't feed this swill to my dog. The food is improperly prepared or prepared with extreme negligence. Pasta is undercooked, still hard and crunchy, rice overcooked and with raw rice thrown into it making a may mess completely unacceptable. Chicken is uncooked or with raw centers. Something they call fish that is certainly anything but and definitely non-edible. Fruit is either mush, rotten, or just plain bad. Don't use this company.

They cater to LabCorp now under a new name ..the place does clinical studies so the food is ordered by the people conducting the study witch means the food must be blan at best (hospital food )but green beans are under cooked every time salads have bad tomatoes in them spaghetti is watery because they don't drain it properly fish sandwich is over cooked to something uneatable they served spoiled milk because they don't keep there temperature correct bread on subs is often hard or sogy very poor job ..that's being polite I would feed my dog this food

Don’t do catering through this company! Waffles are hard& tasteless, ? crust is raw,not baked,rice crispy treats don’t have any marshmallows or taste,lasagna tastes like chef boyardi instead of using marinara sauce, they put lettuce & mayo on wraps & sandwiches instead of on the side & it makes the food soggy! The roast beef is cooked to death, so dry!

These guys completely ruined the dining experience at a wedding I attended over the fall. Would not recommend unless you’re looking to get scammed on your wedding day

Gaylords should be ashamed of what they serve as food. It's as cheap as possible with very little variety

Amanda Sailor

Favorite place for food and catering!

Gaylord Catering provided the meal and desserts for my wedding. They did an absolutely fantastic job! My guests were raving how good the meal was. I was the bride and I didn't even get to try the desserts they went so fast! I would definitely recommend to anyone who wants high quality food and excellent service.

They worked with us all the way, allowing us to reschedule due to COVID. They were amazing.The food was great, our guests would stop me during the reception to compliment the steak and the chicken.I have celiac disease and our entire menu was gluten free. But they went beyond that, and made sure there was no cross-contamination in the food they were serving. I have a Nima sensor and tested the food before eating. So I was able to do something I didn't think I would be able to: eat at my own wedding!!

Stop here! I couldn't find your food truck on yelp so I'm posting this review. Cool patio, saw it and stopped to grab a bite. They have parking on and off the street. You can order ahead of you want but waiting for your food is nice on a sunny day. Decently priced and friendly service, he was super cool and can definitely make some good roadside food! The fries were great!!! The sandwich was delicious with the crunch on the bread and I was very happy to eat it. Now I feel fat but a good fat. I definitely recommend coming to try this place if you're near by.

BEST service in town! Our Storm Response Plan would suffer without these amazing people (Kyle/Connie/David). The weather June 13, 2022 resulted in severe power outages and despite challenges you fed our staff and crews most the week. MGE is THANKFUL for your dedication.
