  Best caterer ever

  I cannot say enough good things about AOC and specifically Meghan. Their professionalism, responsiveness, quality of food and overall general loveliness is above and beyond. Meghan and Art of Catering has made wedding planning a breeze. We cannot recommend them enough.

  The Art of Catering was very professional and pleasant to work with from start to finish. We worked mostly with Meghan Brady- she was very quick to respond, answered all of our millions of questions, and extremely helpful by taking initiative of coordinating with other vendors to make sure the day went smoothly. We had a lot of questions about the food, how to coordinate our day, and serve our guests with food and drinks to make them feel happy and welcome. I am not sure if it's common to have so many changes or questions, but Meghan and The Art of Catering staff was extremely accommodating and flexible. Day of, the staff was immensely professional and friendly.
  
  As for the food, it was pretty amazing. They are interested in tailoring a menu that fits your taste, your guests taste, and are very accommodating to changing recipes if you have dietary restrictions/preferences. Our guests couldn't stop raving about how delicious their food was.
  
  If you're looking for catering that will make your guests feels like they're dining at a warm and welcoming, private restaurant, well The Art of Catering is your best bet. We highly recommend hiring The Art of Catering, you will be happy you did (and so will your stomach). If you're still not sure, seriously feel free to ask me and I'm happy to provide you more details to help you make your catering decision. I promise I'm not affiliated with The Art of Catering, they are just that good!

  BEST IN PDX! Everyone should choose Art of Catering for their Event!
  
  James and his Art of Catering staff are AMAZING. We used Art of Catering for our wedding. James was so accommodating as we started booking vendors two years in advance and he met and emailed with us as many times as we wanted! He answered and gave us his advice and recommendations! He was so helpful in picking a menu for the wedding that was accommodating to a gluten free diet.
  
  On the actual wedding James and his cooking, catering, bar staff were the most amazing staff ever. They were so helpful, educated on the food and my dads homemade beer (they were able to explain each beer). As the Bride & Groom we had our own staff that catered directly to us. They kept making sure we had food, we had drinks, we had water. They got us anything we asked for. It was more than I could have ever imagined!
  
  As for the FOOD, THE BEST WEDDING FOOD EVER. I am a picky person and I wanted the food at my wedding to be amazing. We did a flank steak and sea bass and then we had roasted vegetables and two different salads. The food was amazing. The meat was cooked perfectly. I have absolutely nothing bad to say about this company.

  Art of Catering is the very best in the Pacific Northwest. We were blown away by the quality of service and food that we received. Our wedding was over 350 people and every single person felt the food was outstanding and service was personable and professional. They are prompt, professional, and absolutely impeccable. HIGHLY recommend them to anyone.

  Art of Catering provided an EXCEPTIONAL catering experience for our wedding. Eric went above and beyond (in every sense of the word) for our big day, at a space that otherwise isn't too familiar with weddings - at all! We were planning our wedding from the East Coast, so we needed someone that was plugged-in and responsive. Because I am an Event Planner in D.C., service and quality were both VERY important to me. From the very initial meeting, Eric and I were on the same page and totally in-sync. I knew the wedding would be a success largely thanks to Art of Catering! I am so appreciative of his creativity, honesty and attention to detail. He continually provided real-time feedback and comments, which continued until the very last walk-thru the day before the wedding
  
  (People are still talking about the food from the wedding - it's amazing how much of an impression some delicious sea bass can make! It truly was DELICIOUS, fresh and tasty).

  Wow, wow, wow. My husband and I hired Art of Catering to cater our wedding and we knew they were good, but this company is GREAT! Their professionalism and attention to detail were impeccable, and the food blew us away. We asked for menu suggestions since my husband and I were not sure what to get, and I could never have picked a better menu. Our guests were served promptly and all at the same time , which was important to us. Wine glasses were never empty. Our family and friends felt pampered and well taken care by Art of Catering's amazing staff! They took care of everything from the very beginning to the very end. Thank you so much to Larry and Eric! Our wedding day was a dream!

  Art of Catering is a high quality, very professional, exceptional caterer. The service before the wedding, during, and even after has been nothing but perfect. We could have not asked for better service and quality of food. We love the fact that Art of Catering buys local food and uses local breweries. Great presentation! Absolutely wonderful and delicious. We high recommen Art of Catering to anyone looking for exceptional service, delicious food, and a wonderful friendly staff!

  Recently had our wedding on the DeSoto Rooftop Terrace, with Art of Catering heading up the cocktail hour. The food was amazing and the cocktails were fabulous, and the venue is magical (when it isn't raining!). I only gave 4 stars for value, because they are definitely on the pricey side, even for wedding stuff. While the food and bev and rentals are pricey, you get super fresh and top quality ingredients, and the presentation is amazing. Their waitstaff were totally professional and made sure to set aside some appetizers for me so I wouldn't miss out. If you have the money to spend, this is a great vendor with which to spend it. Kate Monroe was always available to answer my questions, and they did some great last-minute work with me, without any problem what-so-ever. I HIGHLY recommend this group of folks and their fabulous food. I only wish I had had more time at the cocktail hour to eat more of it!

  The food was amazing. None of it tasted like wedding food�I cannot imagine how they cooked sea bass for 85 people and had it taste this good.
