    Amazing to work with and awesome food!

    Classic Catering was absolutely wonderful to work with! We had them for our wedding at Little Log House. Dana was incredibly helpful throughout the entire process and was so patient with all of my questions. We had some appetizers during social hour, plus the pasta bar buffet for dinner and everything was delicious. We had a lot of compliments from the guests on how good everything was! The catering staff were all really nice and did a great job during the wedding. I highly recommend using Classic Catering for any type of event, but especially for a wedding!

    Would Recommend For All Events

    We had Classic Catering for our wedding at The 3 Ten Event Venue. The Taco/Fajita buffet that we had was absolutely fantastic. It was a hit with our guests. Not only were the food options incredible, but the service was equally great -- Very attentive and polite.

    Dana was very responsive and accommodating leading up to our wedding day. We will only speak highly of Classic, and would recommend for any sort of event.

    Delicious food, wonderful service, unbeatable pricing!

    Dana and the catering staff were amazing to work with! We had a buffet, and the food was delicious - we received many compliments. Plus, we were able to keep the leftovers and are still enjoying them. :) The bar and food prices are incredibly reasonable - I highly recommend them! Also, Classic cut the cake for us as we needed and were a great help overall. :)

    Wedding Buffet

    Classic Catering was the perfect service to cater our wedding day! Dana was absolutely fantastic to work with she was organized, on-time, and had every answer to questions that we asked. She helped guide us through the process of choosing specific entrees, place settings, additional options, beer and wine selections and much more. They were very professional and valued our time whenever we had a meeting together. The food was excellent and the staff on the day of our wedding were so kind, respectful and enjoyable to work with. This is by far the best catering company in the Twin Cities area and I suggest to anyone to use this company for any future special event!

    Affordable and Tasty!

    I booked Classic Catering for so many reasons. They don't have ridiculous fees for things (china, utensils, linens, etc.) They have NO cake cutting fee. They let you keep your leftovers. Their food is good and there are a lot of menu options. They offer bar services. They offer free use of some decor items like volatiles. And the staff is responsive and professional. It doesn't get better than that.

    Classic Catering was awesome! Not only were they the most cost effective, they were by far the best tasting food we tested.
    All of our guests were ranting and raving about how good our food was! By far the best decision we made with the whole wedding planning!

    We had such a great time at our wedding! Classic Catering took care of everything! We met with Dana who is so awesome at getting back to us with every question we had before the big day! The food was awesome!! The service was so great! The late night staff were the best and helping us take down everything! I would hire Classic Catering again for the future!

    I don't normally ever write reviews but felt compelled to do so! Working will Dana was fantastic, she was always very responsive & professional! The staff that catered our event in Minnetrista, Minnesota were on task! Food was really delicious, hot, beautifully displayed & fresh! Had so many compliments with the food & catering staff! We had the panko crusted stuffed chicken breast, roast beef, the house salad, broccoli/ grape salad, mashed potatoes & fresh, seasonal roasted veggies! Couldn't have asked for better service & awesome food! Thank you so much for making our daughter's wedding so memorable!!

    We booked Classic Catering for our second reception at Hughes Pavilion in Centennial Lakes Park, Edina. They were one of the preferred vendors, and I'm SO glad they were. Everyone we met with at CC was professional and kind, responded quickly and informatively to emails. We went in for a tasting, which they were very flexible about booking us in for seeing as we don't live in the area and had a small window of time over Christmas when we were in town.

    The food was DELICIOUS. Especially the mashed potatoes. And the cookies. Ooh and the chicken. OK all the food was delicious. The presentation was gorgeous, they even bring linens for your non-catering tables like the gift tables, cake table, sign in table etc, which really helped us. You can pick the table cloths up the day before (which I HIGHLY recommend doing) and drop them off the next day, you just give them a deposit check which they rip up once you've returned them. There was plenty of food, and they let you take home the leftovers if you bring your own containers. I'm so glad we did, because they were delicious left overs and we ate them for days. Seriously, the mashed potatoes..

    The value is SUPERB. Compared to other companies in the area (and I did a LOT of comparisons), they beat out everyone. They don't stick on extras "fees" for every little thing, either. Table cloths are included, centerpieces are even included if you want them (mirror, vase and candles, you have to provide the actual flowers yourself - go to Costco). There are lots of options if you want to upgrade, but you really can pick your price point and have a great experience with them no matter what. They cut your cake for you, even if they didn't provide the cake. They just do it to be nice.

    We were really happy with our choice, and already have friends in the area who have booked them for their reception! Highly recommended.

    We used Classic Catering for our wedding in June 2016. They did a fabulous job and provided great, quality food for our wedding! Everyone we worked with was professional and very responsive to the needs of the day. I would recommend Classic Catering for wedding or other catering needs.

    Excellent food (we had the pork and stuffing, chicken buffet)! Staff was very accommodating to our questions and allergy-related food needs. Guests particularly appreciated attention to allergy free foods.

    Classic Catering catered for my wedding at the Eagan Community Center and the food was amazing! Throughout the night we had several guest tell us about how delicious the food was, and how it was "the best food they have ever had at a wedding!" Classic catering also allows you to take food home after the wedding, so do not forget Tupperware (giant party sized) ... like we did lol. Luckily we had a family member run and go get us some Tupperware. And after seeing how much food was left, thank goodness classic catering does not throw it away! The food was so good we had family members fighting over who got to take home what! After being married for 8 months now, I still have wedding guest reminiscing about how good our food was. The best mashed potatoes I have ever had in my entire life!!

    Absolutely pleased with the service, food, and price. They set up, they cleaned up, and let us take home leftover food. Guests loved the food and there was plenty of it. Staff was very pleasant and responsive. Dana was great to work with - even accommodated for last minute add-ons to the guest #. Pricing was simple and clear. Could not be happier and would definitely recommend Classic Catering.

    Classic Catering is absolutely AMAZING!!! Our guests raved about the food! They were a great value and it was great to have them help with the clean up and everything. I was happy we were able to pick up the decor ahead of time. They made it so easy and took care of so much. We even got to keep all of the leftovers!!!!

    Classic was absolutely wonderful; from the minute we contacted them to the end of the wedding night. I could not be more happy with them. Dana always responded to my emails very quickly, they were flexible especially when our plans changed, and the food was delicious. A lot of our guests commented on how good the food was, especially the mashed potatoes. To top it off, their prices are very reasonable. I would definitely recommend them to anyone who is looking for awesome cater in the Twin Cities.

    This was by far one of the easiest vendors to work with for my wedding. Dana was so helpful and friendly. I had a few extra people for the tasting and she was more than accommodating, last minute I asked to come in to finalize everything and she made it happen. The day of the wedding the food was so good! It's always a toss up with wedding food but we had a lot of compliments on it.

    Classic Catering was so easy to work with. It was reasonably priced. The food was not quite as delicious as our tasting, but it was still good. Our food could have been a little warmer but that was our fault because our toasts went long and we ate about 20-30 minutes later than we told them. They really went above and beyond with help setting up and cutting our very frozen ice cream cakes. The staff was exceptional and the price was right. We also were able to bring our leftovers home which fed many people for a few days afterwards.

    Everyone was thrilled with the food we still hear about how great it was! People said it was the best food they have had at a wedding. We got the four cheese penne and Garlic herb butter chicken we have very picky eaters in our group and they don’t eat pasta but they all loved the penne. The staff the day of was great and made sure everything was what we expected. Dana was the one who helped us from the first tasting and was at our wedding too she was so helpful every time we called her and answered all our crazy questions. We got to bring all the left overs home which was wonderful to not have to cook the next few days.

    Classic Catering by far was the best value for my dollar. The meals were within my budget and on top of their prices, I got a little help with them offering free centerpieces. For every email I sent, I received a response in less than 24hrs and some, within the hour. Made things so much easier for me when trying to coordinate things.
