Fat Freddy's was amazing! Kelly was super helpful and responsive during the planning process. We held a dinner party for about 60 people and the pricing/options were more than reasonable for the quality of food and service they provided. We did full service where they brought the food, set up, and cleared plates as people were finishing up. The crew on site were so helpful and kind. The food was also a hit with our group. We had a prime rib carving station which was worth every penny and then some! We also had a couple of guests that had dietary restrictions and the catering team handled that with such care. We will absolutely be using Fat Freddy's again in the future!
Rachel and her team at Fat Freddy's catering did a fantastic job with our event. The food was delicious and they were so organized getting everything set up. We have used them for 3 years and will continue to use them for our events.
The food was fantastic and the service outstanding!
Very easy communication planning the menu. Service was prompt and efficient. Very friendly; and extremely competent. Food was plentiful, presented in a beautiful manner, and ABSOLUTELY delicious. 5 star; in every category.
Excellent food!!!! The staff and delivery people go above and beyond to make sure all your needs are taken care of.
