I cannot express how incredible the staff and the food were for my wedding in November 2025. I would work with Dutzel again in a heartbeat. They are so friendly, communicate well, and the food was to die for. We had pizza as our main meal for our wedding (not super traditional) and I would do it again in a heartbeat. Dutzel brought in pizza ovens and made the pizzas right there in front of guests which in my opinion was the coolest. Our guests raved about the food the entire night, telling us how great the apps were, the main meal and even the late night snack of chicken wings. Absolutely incredible. Hire them for any and all catering needs! You wouldn’t regret it. Seriously still drooling over the pizza.
We booked Dutzel’s for our wedding and they were amazing! Melissa was awesome to work with and would check in with us regularly. We had a few last minute needs/adjustments and they were extremely responsive and accommodating. I especially love that at the forefront of their business they push inclusivity. James our lead/bartender for the night was also wonderful.
We used Dutzel's Catering for our rehearsal dinner and they did a really great job. All of our guests were talking about how delicious the food was. The staff was so kind and great to work with. They provided a good variety of options for our buffet style dinner. Would highly recommend!
My organization hosted a reception of about 75 guests at a private residence and chose Dutzel's to cater it - it was our first time working with them and we were very pleased. The staff were on time, professional, kind, and very easy to work with. They made pricing competitive with other caterers as well, which was a nice surprise and helped make the booking decision that much easier. Food was excellent, and the team was flexible with modifications for allergies and dietary restrictions. Very happy with our choice and would recommend to any looking for a caterer.
Dutzel's was the caterer for our October 2023 wedding. We had passed apps, coffee, water carafes, and a buffet meal for 150 people. We also used their plates, silverware, water goblets. The staff was professional, efficient, and attentive to all of our guests. Excellent experience from the initial tasting, menu curation, to day of execution, and clean up. Food was excellent, they were accommodating of all dietary needs, set aside special plates for the couple, and packed leftovers for us. We recommend hiring Dutzel's for any of your catering needs.
