Crave Catering

igh attention to detail, and not to mention, the food is fantastic! People would not stop raving about the apps and dinner selections. The table settings were set exactly as I had envisioned and the night went flawlessly because of this team. Would absolutely recommend to anyone!

taff was extremely efficient at setup and tear down - it was really amazing to watch. We did not have a wedding planner and for a nominal fee, Meredith took charge of coordinating all the vendors on the day of the wedding so we could just enjoy. She was so efficient at managing the event I could not be happier! If we had another wedding in Austin I would hire Crave without another thought!

aid that our food was the best wedding food they've ever had. Meredith and the team were creative and accommodating and so inspiring when it came to our menu. I would stop your search now and go with Crave Catering for your wedding. It's one of the best decisions we made for our wedding!

stitute with tequila. Meredith was so sweet and it was so much fun to experience our personalized taste testing. Thank you Crave!

othly and even helped coordinate even small details that our planner had missed. Would highly recommend crave. And plan to use them again - for any future event I host.

s, and in particular the astute way they handled our guest's food allergies. Meredith, Leslie, and the whole team helped create a perfect custom menu for our day. They were incredibly professional, quick to respond, and treated us so well. During the very stressful time of planning, postponing, and replanning a wedding during the pandemic, Crave was always there to help and support us. Absolutely would recommend them to everyone!

breeze. Our original caterer unfortunately went out of business due to the pandemic but Crave swooped in to the rescue and helped us with a very seamless transition. Our tasting with them was so wonderful and felt like the first luxurious thing we got to do for our wedding. Everyone loved the food and although we barely got to eat anything the day of, they were kind enough to pack us some leftovers to enjoy the next day! Highly recommend them!

g. Thank you for making my daughter’s wedding special.

es I've tried. Amy was very helpful and easy to work with. They are the pro's for a reason!!

us to Crave, and helped transition our menu over. Leslie at Crave is nothing short of a rock star! She is an absolute pro, and helped us execute our same vision that we had with our previous caterer. Crave was so flexible, accommodating, and had a total can-do attitude. The service was seamless, and the food delicious. My husband and I are very much into food. It was such a major decision for us, the one we took the longest to decide upon while wedding planning. Crave absolutely delivered, and we had so many compliments from guests as well.

ctive dining experience, with passed appetizers, a chef-attended avocado bar, a chef-attended cookie and ice cream bar, and a staffed s'mores bar. The complimentary signature cocktails included with our bartending package was also a really nice touch. We really enjoyed having Crave as our caterer and highly recommend them!

ocess of selecting our menu was simple and easy. Their entire team is great to work with and they were super flexible when we had to postpone our original date due to COVID. All of their staff on the day of the wedding were super friendly and helped make our day so special. Highly recommend them to all prospective brides looking for an amazing meal for their guests!

at service. Our guests raved about the food to us, which is what we wanted. They were a tad more expensive than a few others we were looking at but that was worth the experience, service, and product. They were one of the best things from our wedding.

t of the park! We had a few things we wanted to change/add to the menu so they did a second tasting for me a month or two later and it was phenomenal! On the day of our wedding, everyone was raving about how good the food was and that it was the best food they'd ever had especially at a wedding. I still dream of the focaccia bread they served and would seriously drive and hour and a half to have their food again. It was super important to my husband to have amazing food for our wedding and they did not disappoint. Highly recommend!

usband and I had creative control in choosing our dinner options and gave us great advice in finalizing our menu. Meredith made our tasting so pleasant and was responsive and easy to get in contact with. We would recommend Crave to anyone who is hosting an event, you won't regret it.

Our coordinator, Meridth listened to all of my requests and didn’t fail to accomplish one! We were thrilled with the outcome and would hire this company again in a heartbeat!

so we were able to create a custom menu that showcased us. From the pre-ceremony appetizer, to the action stations, and the "Philly style" late night snack, everything was beautifully presented, and most importantly, delicious. Many of our guests have commented that it was the best wedding food they've ever had and couldn't believe it was catering. They made sure to save some appetizers for my husband and I so we didn't miss out, and then packed up a to-go bag for us with a bit of everything to take home! The Crave chefs are so talented and everything was perfectly executed.

he left and both were so helpful and fulfilled our wedding dreams. The food was absolutely fantastic, just as we remembered it at the tasting. Meredith was so prompt in everything we wanted - eating dinner alone together in the back, having appetizers brought out to our wedding party, and always making sure we had a drink in our hand! I could go on and on but crave is undeniably the best. Everyone couldn’t stop talking about how great the food was and our cheesecake desserts!

bets are off when Crave is your caterer!! They will bring fine dining to your wedding for your group of 200+!!! Not to mention their professional and friendly staff, we highly recommend their services!!! We couldn't have asked for anything better than Crave :)

. this team really cares about you and I could feel that. Thank you for ever thing you guys!

the middle of planning, that changed to allow more options but because of Sarah, we stuck with Crave without hesitation. Their food is beautifully delicious but they also really prioritize hospitality and the joy that comes with sharing a meal with friends and loved ones. They can produce world-class food for any palate and will gladly accommodate any and all special dietary needs your guests may have. Our only wish is that they'd open a restaurant so we could try more of their food!

or wedding food but that our food was amazing. We didn't have a cake and did a cookie bar instead. Crave made us vegan chocolate chip cookies which were possibly better than the regular chocolate chip cookies and a homemade Oreo among other flavors. All cookies were a huge hit. We also had few alcohol drinkers at our wedding so we had mocktails during cocktail hour and I've received requests for the recipes. If you've read this far, I think it's pretty obvious that the food, sweets, drinks are amazing. Beyond that, every person we had contact with during the planning process and day-of were so great. Everyone was supportive and attentive. We would definitely recommend.

r wedding, and had Crave's delicious sides and appetizers which paired greatly with everything. Jill was great at making sure our tasting was set up to finalize our choices and worked greatly with us to make sure everything was ordered in the right portions we needed to feed our guests. Everything was delicious. Thanks again!

I love pretzels and Sarah worked with us on having an amazing pretzel bar at our cocktail hour. Sarah suggested some fall cocktails that were perfect for our November wedding that also fit our personalities! We chose to do family style and it was a hit! For our main entrees, we selected Chicken Picatta Roulade and Beef Bourguignon with sides of mixed veggies and roasted garlic mashed potatoes. Crave offered a private dinner for Trent and I so we could eat, just us two, before we entered into our reception. It was great to have a minute to ourselves! Late night breakfast tacos, provided by Crave, were a big hit at the sparkler exit! I'm so glad we chose Crave Catering, the service was great and they even packed us up a little to-go back with some leftovers! Thank you Crave and thank you Sarah!

hey could do Cajun food right but they did an AMAZING job. The food was all so delicious - our guests are still commenting about it. They were also so easy to work with and responded promptly anytime we had a question or wanted to change something. Love them!

as so easy to communicate/work with. She was so accommodating and made sure we had exactly what we wanted, while staying within a certain budget. Multiple guests complimented us on how great our food was during the reception! I would recommend Crave to anyone in the Austin/Hill Country area!

nice, and accommodating. At the wedding they were professional, courteous, and made my night just how I hoped it would be.

the food to quite a few caterers and to be honest, I initially didn't care much about the food but wanted something simple and good with some Mexican influence without it being tacos. From the very first proposal, Crave completely understood the vision and provided an amazing menu from the very first draft. From there, it was easy to tweak. They were always super transparent about costs so I knew exactly what to expect. They were also very flexible with my guest count. Then, the actual food at the wedding was simply delicious. We got compliments from everyone on the amazing appetizers and all the great selections. It was incredibly helpful to have a great caterer that made it easy and stress-free. The team at the wedding was also amazing, professional and totally on it. Would recommend them over and over.

n away, not only with the food but how professional the whole team was. Shout out to Sarah – you are superwoman! Sarah was extremely helpful with every detail from the beginning to the end. Me being a Type-A, mildly neurotic bride, she responded promptly to every email, phone call, random-ridiculous questions with such thoughtfulness and clarity. She even took us over to Marquee Rentals and setup mock table settings – the table cloths, the champagne flutes, the chairs, and way more, she made it superb! She made my vision come alive. Sarah truly is a saint sent down from the wedding heavens! A five-star review just doesn’t do her justice! From the specialty cocktails, to the four-passed hors d'oeuvres, to the three-course plated dinner, to the open bar – we were beyond impressed with everything. The food was incredible! Our guests are still raving about how amazing the food tasted. The service was perfect as well. Literally the whole Crave team put on a show! We are so grateful for the whole team at Crave for making our wedding the wedding of the century. I would love to do it all over again – it was so much fun! We literally can’t stop talking about how exceptional everything was. I would HIGHLY recommend Crave Catering to anyone for any event. Thank you, Sarah and the whole team for making my fairytale wedding a reality – but way better!

n for our tasting for our rehearsal dinner and wedding reception and me and my fiance literally cried tears of joy at how great the food was. The pork shanks with the cherry demi glace - OUT OF THIS WORLD AMAZING! And i don't even really eat pork, but this was to die for! We also had the butternut squash gnocchi because it's one of my favorite dishes in the whole world and it was also just heavenly! My mouth is literally watering as I write this! Leslie and her team are such a pleasure to work with and made the whole process seamless! Special shout out to Sarah at Crave for being so amazing and so accommodating! She was always checking in with us and even Skype'd with me and my fiance because we were planning our wedding from New York! Literally, some of the best people ever! I highly recommend Crave! I can't say enough good things about them and they will make your guests don't know what hit them! Thank you Crave!

have imagined. On top of the incredible food, Crave went above and beyond during every moment of planning. Since I was planning from out of state I had a lot of random questions pop into my head at random times and Sarah responded promptly to every email and question I had with such kindness and clarity - from changing up the menu, to adding small details, to linens and water goblets and more, they helped me with it all. Thank you, Crave, for making our wedding day so memorable not only for us but for providing our guests with a truly exquisite dining and service experience!

about after our wedding. The whole Crave team is a well-oiled machine! This is so important to a perfect wedding, I had absolutely no worries that everything would be executed perfectly. To make it even better Sarah rallied her team to move up the timeline so we could star the party sooner! I cannot stress how important a good caterer is, and look no further, CRAVE IS PERFECT!

d to be able to have so many options. We did stations because we wanted a wide variety and spread of food choices. We had 3 amazing, unique stations: Mediterranean, Southern Comfort and Street Tacos. Some of our stand out favorites from our menu were the ahi tuna wonton crisp appetizers, blackened shrimp street tacos, brisket, mac & cheese, and rosemary biscuits. In fact, everything we had was delicious! Jill was incredible to work with and her attention to detail was outstanding. I loved her guide us through linen choices and help us order all the alcohol through Specs. We were blown away at our tasting with all the incredible food and signature cocktails they created for us. Jill was understanding and responsive to many last-minute changes that we had, ensuring that we got exactly what we wanted. Jill made sure that everything ran smoothly the day of our wedding, and the service from the staff, bartenders and everyone from Crave was exceptional. If you are thinking about booking Crave for your wedding, do not hesitate! It was the best decision we made.

sts hanging out near the kitchen doors during cocktail hour because they couldn’t get enough of the appetizers. We couldn’t have made a better choice with our wedding catering. We worked with Sarah during our planning process and she was so amazing to work with! She was always ahead of the game, keeping us updated through the whole process. She always made sure we thought of all the details and how best to accommodate all of our guests. She helped us fit in little details into our food to make it more us, while making sure we didn’t break the budget. Overall, Crave was amazing to work with and would very highly recommend them to any bride out there!

anything we wanted, and the champagne and wine choices they offer are AWESOME. They pulled of our quick dinner service flawlessly and Sarah was so sweet and professional to work with. 100% recommend - you will not regret it!!

ur daughter's wedding with the best of the best and from the cocktail hour to the reception dinner the food was superb. Our guests couldn't stop raving about the food and that is what you want to hear when planning such an event. Even the pre-planning was a breeze --Jill was accessible and always answered any query promptly. Planning our 3/24/2018 event wasn't easy either since our Bride and Groom live in Austin and we live in Connecticut but with Jill there never was any issue including helping my husband who because of a health issue needed to have his food prepped separately --Jill went out of her way to make sure he was well taken care of the entire night! We can't say enough how hiring Crave was one of the best things we did for our Big Day!

erful as well as presentation. I would highly recommend them to anyone!

ing every detail - from "his and hers" passed appetizers, a delicious two course dinner, and a very romantic couple's dinner for my husband and I right after our ceremony. Even our tasting dinner was well thought out and extra special. Their staff, too, are true professionals and helped make the set up and tear down of our wedding so easy. Since our wedding, I've also had the pleasure of working with Crave for two corporate events, and their attention to detail, gorgeous presentation and on-point staff was just as evident in those events. I would recommend Crave Catering to anyone!

meone about the wedding, the food was one of their highlights! Thanks Leslie and Jill for making our night one to remember!

o finish. We had a phenomenal tasting experience and selected the osso bucco with polenta and carrots and the chicken piccata with mash potatoes and Brussels as our main dishes (insanely good and tender) as well as the chopped Italian salad to start. Passed apps were risotto cheese balls and tuna tartare which were both great. Both the osso bucco and chicken piccata received rave reviews but since my wife and I both had the osso bucco I’ll focus on that. The serving sizes were large which was great as it was open bar and some people even managed to clean their entire plates (I would’ve but I had to still fit in my tux after :)). The osso bucco was the best I’ve had and I ate it in Italy. Anyway, the professionalism and timeliness of Jill and her crew was like clockwork. I was extremely impressed with their service and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for caterers and for any future events ourselves. Fantastic!

ious menu for passed apps, main course, desserts and signature drinks and everything they had us try was amazing - it made it hard to narrow down to our final selections! We worked with Jill throughout most of the last few months and she executed everything perfectly for the wedding day. The service was incredible and people are still telling us how amazing our food was weeks after the wedding. Wedding food can often all start to look the same but with Crave, you are sure to have food that will blow your guests away! Highly recommend for any event!

guests raved about everything. Thank you to Leslie, Sarah and the catering team for a perfectly delicious day.

e had many people tell us this was the best food they have ever had and I could not agree more! Thank you again to Leslie and the team!

edding. If I had to plan a wedding all over again, Crave would still be my caterer!
