We had fabulous foods cater our wedding at the Zoo. We chose a Mexican cuisine. We had so many compliments it was fantastic. Most of the time you don't expect much from wedding food but this was so much different. Stephanie helped us get everything set up. James was our personal server during the wedding. The staff was professional at all times. I was overwhelmed by how many compliments we received about the food.
We had 2 family heirloom plates that we used for our bundtinis- the staff were very careful with the heirloom and made sure we got them back in mint condition. Fab foods also helped us get set up with linen/chairs etc. The dining room looked fantastic. We couldn't have asked for anything better. Thank you for helping to make our day special.

Fabulous Foods is an amazing one stop shop for all of your party planning and catering needs! We recently hosted a corporate event in Phoenix that I planned from California. With nothing but phone calls to pave the way, Stephanie was able to perfectly bring my vision to life for a "Mexican Fiesta" with a white tent adorned with twinkle lights and swamp coolers to keep us all comfortable on a 90 degree night.
The food was top notch and easily accommodated our group that includes vegans, vegetarians and gluten free folks. They handled every step of the event from tent rental, set up, break down, food, beverages (including a full bar and 2 bartenders) and were able to add more tables, chairs and alcohol to our order the day of. Every step of the process was easy and handled with great professionalism. I only wish they were in California so I could use them for all of my events!

We had Fabulous Food cater a wedding reception, and are so thankful for all the expertise, guidance and outstanding level of service they delivered. Everyone we dealt with at Fabulous Food is at the top of their field at what they do. They set up all the indoor and outdoor spaces in such a way to make the most of each area, given the size of our party. Every menu item was perfectly executed and presented, and their staff bent over backwards for us and our guests to meet their every need (I say "bent over" in the figurative sense, but think they might have literally if someone had asked!).
The Sales Consultant and Chef perfectly guided me to keep things on track so I could focus on guests and even enjoy the party myself - they are masters. They understood from the beginning what our vision was, and always had my back to make sure that vision was delivered regardless of job title. Throughout the night our guests would approach us to compliment all the great food and the event. I could give them no greater compliment than to say that they made us look good!
