Pam Sent on 06/01/2018We had Pompeii Wood Fired Pizza cater our wedding reception. Dawnelle was great to work with in the planning stage. She was very helpful and knowledgeable when we were deciding what type of pizza and salads we would need for our guests. Pompeii also provided gluten-free pizza crust and vegetarian/vegan options for pizzas and salads. They keep the pizzas coming out of the ovens in a very consistent pace to keep food on the tables to feed the guests. On the day of the reception they were so flexible regarding where to park the Wood Fired Ovens and setup their canopies when there needed to be a change in location. My reception coordinator find them wonderful to work with and give them a review of 5 stars on Yelp. In the weeks following the reception I have asked my guests how they liked the pizza, every single one of them said it was delicious! Thank you Pompeii for making our reception meal a fabulous one!!

User2539161 Sent on 02/21/2016Pompeii Wood Fired Pizza was the perfect caterer for our reception. We held the gathering for over 100 people at a venue that allowed people to gather in several locations. Pompeii set up a tent that added excitement and anticipation, our guests looked forward to a wonderful lunch and were not let down; the pizza and salads were clever, perfectly made and tasty. The company was terrific to work with straightforward in business dealings and flexible when numbers changed, we needed gluten free pizzas and insuring that the service was just right at the event. Dawnelle offered suggestions of what to serve and how it might work to serve and she was right on the mark. My advice is to hire Pompeii and listen to Dawnelle, she is organized and knew just how to work with our differing wishes! Our reception was lovely, our friends are still talking about it months later! -
User2537566 Sent on 02/18/2016Absolutely wonderful service. My husband and I had 225 people for an outdoor wedding on the back lawn of a home in central Seattle. From our first interaction with Pompeii when we tasted at a farmers market at Volunteer Park to the actual ceremony itself -- it all went perfectly well. Great price. Great service. Very flexible and adaptable to changing needs. We were very happy! Highly recommended. -

Quincey Sent on 08/05/2019Pizza at a wedding is a great idea!
Everyone was thrilled with the quality of the food and the uniqueness of having an actual oven there for cooking.
Some of the response time was a little longer than expected. But everything came together perfectly -
User1278771 Sent on 08/08/2013This is a completely mobile pizza caterer. While the food was to die for and the best pizza I have ever had and the owner was easy to work with, we did have some hiccups. Our contract said there would be two pizza ovens at the venue the day of the wedding to feed 175 people, the caterer only showed up with one. We were also charged for additional staff due to the size of our guest list yet the caterer left to another event before dinner with only one person to cook and serve the pizza. When the bridal party got up to eat, my husband and I saw no food on the buffet table. Luckily a groomsmen handed us a tray of pizza for us to eat. It took about two hours to serve everyone dinner. The owner even asked the father of the groom to start cooking, thinking he was one of her employees. I would recommend this caterer only to those who are having a very small wedding, but it IS great food! They usually do things like wine tastings with a much smaller number of guests. I think 175 was just too stressful for them.Pompeii Wood Fired Pizza's reply:
I believe I remember this wedding, but I'm really not sure because I never received a formal complaint at the time. First, I am sorry for your experience. Yes, it sounds as if this was a challenging day for us. Unfortunately every caterer has something like this happen early in their catering careers. This is no excuse, but it is a fact and again I'm terribly sorry this happened. It is inexcusable that service was 2 hours. In the 3 years since your day we have streamlined our process and are happy to say we can easily serve 250 people in 65 minutes, which is pretty remarkable considering all the food is made on site and not pre-processed. We pride ourselves for our timeliness because we understand that weddings have a strict day-of-schedule to adhere to, and the food service is a big part of the day. Because of you we are a much thorough, conscientious and efficient caterer. Thank you for your response.
