I started talking to D'Amico Catering at a wedding fair a few weeks back. At the time I was really excited to work with them and had heard nothing but amazing things about their service but unfortunately that has not been my experience.The first person I talked to said she would get back to me within the week. When she didn't, I emailed her to make sure she had everything she needed to get a quote together and she responded that she would call me that afternoon. Again she didn't, even after I sent her my phone number to make sure she had it. After several days of still no word from the first Senior Event Planner, I emailed a second planner who's name I previously had. Again I had heard such good things that I couldn't believe this one person could be representative of the company as a whole.The second person I emailed responded quite quickly with more questions which I promptly answered and sent back. That was 2 weeks. I still have not heard a word from either planner. It has been 3.5 weeks and 2 planners later and I still have not received a quote from D'Amicos. If this is what their customer service is like before they have my business, I can't imagine how bad it must be once they have your money.

D'Amico Catering was wonderful. The food was fantastic and the staff was so professional. One thing I was pleasantly surprised by was that at the reception, my new groom and I were personaly asked throughout the night if there was anything we needed. They kept an eye on us to make sure we were taken care of the entire night. I really enjoyed the tasting months prior, too. It was a fun thing to enjoy with my parents. We highly recommend.

What more would you want to say about your catering...the food was phenomenal. They provided delicious and creative appetizers, and the dinner was superb. To top it all off, the cake was lights out.I highly recommend using them at one of their venues, as it's sort of a one stop shop. Their staff was fantastic, from my event manager Jessica, and her team all the way to the servers and bartender.We couldn't have asked for more!

The reception was held at International Market Square on the main level. The facillity was beautiful and the staff were amazing. As soon as we walked in the event lead welcomed my husband and I and offered to get us anything we needed. The staff taking care of our meal checked on us and also let us know he set some of the appetizers on our table with thought that we probably had not been able to get any of the passed appetizers. The also had everything set perfectly for when the guests arrived. No complaints regarding this portion of our wedding. The waitstaff even made sure he knew the plan for when we were going to cut the cake so they didn't take it away too soon. The food was wonderful and many of my guests exclaimed how much they loved the food they received and what little I had a chance to eat was amazing. The bar was suppose to carry a particular item and that was not included as requested and I was told no problem. I was also suppose to have an item on the dinner plate that was not included where it should have been. Other than a couple of minor hiccups - it was perfect.

Working with D'Amico (especially Jessica) is great. They work with you to find the right menu, offer feedback on vendors, bake delicious cakes, and provide food that everyone raved about. (Seriously, this isn't just good wedding food. It's a really good meal.) D'Amico isn't cheap, but it's quality food, drinks and assistance with creating a truly memorable night.

D’Amico was wonderful to work with! Not only were they helpful when planning the menu but they helped with the set-up of the reception site and made sure everything was in place before guests arrived. Stephanie Moe was great to work with – for cocktail hour we wanted to have food that was not initially on their menu but Stephanie was able to work with the staff to create a customized menu for us and it was AMAZING! Our guests loved the food, I received many compliments on how good the food was – I even heard it was the best wedding food they ever had!!! I would highly recommend D’Amico to other couples!

D'Amico was a wonderful caterer to work with. The food at our wedding was delicious and we got so many compliments. Our contact at D'Amico was amazing. So helpful in organizing much more than just the food- she helped us with organizing and envisioning the ceremony as well as reception set up and dealing with our other vendors. The staff were friendly, efficient and did far more than I ever expected in helping to set up for the ceremony and reception. We truly had a great experience working with D'Amico.

D'Amico provided fantastic food and beverage service for our wedding. The guests raved about the food all night (flavor, presentation, etc). Patrick (our coordinator) was very open to changes we had throughout the planning process. Be sure to read through the contract to avoid any surprises (candles, cake being brought in, etc.). Overall D'Amico was great. Amazing food, good prices, and very helpful staff.

We worked with Brenda from D'Amico and held our reception at Calhoun Beach Club. A truly gorgeous and fun venue. Our situation was a bit tricky with our ceremony being held at the Sculpture Garden we needed a rain backup. So the call had to be made very last minute for set up and we have multiple plans for set up and seating arrangement based on what the weather would allow. Through this Brenda was so easy to work with. She had great suggestions and knowledge and really listened to your requests and helped make your vision a reality. Her patience was exceptional and we thoroughly enjoyed working with her. Besides the venue being exquisite, the food was extraordinary! It was definitely a major deciding factor in choosing the venue itself. D'Amico could coin the term "not wedding chicken". We chose the Sea Bass which everyone should have ordered in my opinion, and a chicken dish. I was so torn between the two I had a special "bride" plate with extra items which Brenda offered! The food was so good the Sea Bass was actually a topic of discussion. I highly recommend working with D'Amico for not only their amazing pallet, but their quality of service as well.

We used D'Amico for our reception food and cake and they did and amazing job!!! Rachel was our event planner who was recommended to me by another vendor and she was wonderful to work with. The cocktail hour and dinner were amazing and they did such a good job setting up the venue. The cake was amazing too and we got lots of complements on the food, cake and specialty cocktail. I would definitely recommend them, they did a wonderful job!

We started out on the wrong foot with D'Amico. We had a terrible event manager who was not responsive and continued to “lose” our information. After many calls to the office and getting the run around, we were finally able to switch our contact with D’Amico and had a wonderful experience going forward. Excellent food, great service, and professional coordination for a wedding venue.

Our food, beverages and desserts were wonderful! We got tons of compliments on how delicious everything was. Our D'Amico consultant, Rachel, was wonderful. She got our vision and worked diligently to make sure we got everything we wanted. The only drawback working with D'Amico was the cake. The decoration of both the wedding cake and the groom's cake was disappointing. I wish we could have had the option of using a professional wedding cake vendor, but all food items had to be done by D'Amico. Overall, very happy though.

D'Amicos provided all the food and beverages for our wedding. They did a wonderful job and were flexible with the style of reception we wanted (a food station reception). They suggested a variety of food options that worked really well. They were also willing to work in our budget as best as possible. We received many compliments that it was the best wedding food they have ever had. Thanks for making our special day so wonderful!

There is a D'Amico & Sons restaurant near where I work and I absolutely love their food! When I found out they catered also, I asked if they would do our rehearsal dinner in my parent's backyard (where the wedding was being held). I would have loved them to cater our reception as well, but the hall we booked had a house caterer we had to use (which was also fantastic!). Our picnic-style rehearsal dinner was fantastic!

The best appetizers - beet chips w/ tapenade, seared tuna w/ pesto, chilled cucumber cups w/ mango salsa ....the best dinner - juicy, flavorful Greek chicken w/ kalamata olives and tomatoes, roasted new potatoes w/ herbs, bright green beans w/ sliced peppers ...the best cake - vanilla buttercream on white cake w/ a light, lemon filling ...delicious!!! We had several comments that our reception food was the best our guests had ever had. The staff was also incredible: the tables were all served within a few minutes of each other, plus our wine & water glasses never seemed to reach empty. They were so attentive.The bar was also spectacular, with knowledgeable, friendly bartenders.Finally, our planner, Brenda Probasco, was an absolute delight to work with. She helped make our wedding day the most memorable of our lives!

D'Amico Catering made sure that the meal at my wedding was EXACTLY what I wanted. I even got a call a couple days before the wedding to ensure they had the exact recipe for the salad dressing I wanted on our salad. We did attend a taste-testing which was great to get an idea for what we might want to serve at our wedding, and then from there we had an open line of communication of how they could change something to make it special for our day. They were flexible and did things off their menu to suit our needs. We have received endless compliments from our wedding guests about how delicious the food was, especially the dessert that we created with the chef- a warm hot fudge brownie with ice cream served on the side!!! Everything was fabulous right down to the service. They had enough servers that everyone was eating at the same time- nobody was sitting around waiting to be served while other tables were already eating- we were all served at the same time- the staff was VERY attentive to the needs of our guests! IT WAS PERFECT!
