Anna + Bobby - Classic City Catering

“Classic is in the name! Our catering experience with David Penniman and his team at Classic City Catering was the equivalent of having several fine dining specialty restaurants all served in one place!

The variety of offerings, all having incredible quality and freshness, was a perfect balance and generated unanimous praise from all who attended our daughter and son-in-laws wedding reception. It was amazing that so much beef tenderloin was chosen (and with many seconds) that the constant resupply of perfectly cooked servings never ran out! We would attribute that to on-site preparation with an excess of backup product available! The seafood, mashed potato bar, wood grilled vegetables and pasta were equally excellent! It was also appreciated that Mr. Barry curated a nice bar set-up and saw that the requested specialty drinks were perfectly made.

David’s attention to detail was exceptional, from the table settings to the beautiful food presentation to our guest with dietary restrictions, he made sure all was well taken care of! The attitude of All – the Bartenders, Servers, Chefs and Cooks on site kept things efficient and fun to be with. Likewise, the office staff contributed to our positive experience with their kind attention and responsiveness throughout.

Classic City Catering managed the process with professionalism and flexibility.

We’d give it more than 5 stars if possible!!!” – Mother of the Bride
