Great staff, easy carry in for entertainment, down falls refreshments served on opposite side of hall, AC was not turn on. That's the reason for the 4 stars

We went there today for a union dinner. The food was terrible, the dressing wasn't even done. The beef tips were hard the food was all cold there were no coffee pots on the table. We paid $30 a plate so for $60 lunch for my husband and myself it was certainly not worth it. We are very very disappointed it would not recommend this place for large parties.

I got to enjoy La Sures catering at a wedding I stood up in a few years ago. So it was an easy choice for our wedding to pick them to cater offsite for a group of 40 people. The prime rib and balsamic mushroom chicken was cooked to perfection once again. Very moist and surprisingly I enjoyed the chicken equally as much as prime rib! The twice baked potatoes, Ceasar salad, rolls, and parmesan asparagus was also excellent. The staff was extremely kind, friendly, and professional. Look no further La Sures has you covered for an excellent meal time and time again.
