We've worked with Elephant's Deli Catering numerous times, and every time we’re reminded why they’re one of our favorite catering partners. The food is exceptional, the service is warm and professional, and they bring such a positive energy to every event. Thank you for being one of our trusted partners!
Elephants did the catering, including bar and desserts, for our wedding. Kylie and Michelle were easy to work with, communicative, and the entire catering team helped the event run smoothly. The food was delicious and we'd definitely recommend them!
We had a party for 28 people and Elephants did a fabulous job. They set up a lovely buffet, and then came back to break down after the party. The food was delicous, all appetizers. My Elephants Planner, Sarah, helped me choose the food from their extensive menu and decide how much of each dish was needed for my final guest count. It was so easy and carefree. I highly recommend their catering services. Thank you Sarah, Ariel and Peter
We worked with Elephants Catering for our recent wedding celebration and had a great experience. They were responsive, easy to work with, and made adjustments to our menu and invoice as needed. All the staff on the day—including trainees—were kind and professional, and the food was fantastic. The sesame noodles and roasted veggies were especially good, and the brisket was super tender (though we ended up with a lot left over—lesson learned: one appetizer is plenty, since guests filled up fast before dinner). Since we provided our own alcohol, we should have asked Elephants for more guidance on how much to buy—we definitely overestimated and were left with way more than we needed. In hindsight, their suggestion to have a straight 3–4 hour open bar would’ve worked better so drinks could be consistently served throughout the night. Overall, highly recommend working with them.
I needed a caterer for my mother's 80th birthday party. I solicited information from a half dozen caterers. The first and most complete response was from Katie at Elephants. The process was very efficient and all costs were very transparent from the beginning. No other caterer was as quick and thorough in the bidding process. In addition, the menu is varied and delicious! I had a server, Liv, for my event. She showed up on time, set everything up, and seemed to be everywhere all of the time serving my guests and keeping the venue looking great! When she left, she had done all of the cleanup! She made throwing a party so easy! I will never use any other caterer and I highly recommend them as a go-to for anyone looking to cater any event.
