    Far beyond expectations!

    Cindy and her team went way above and beyond for our daughter's wedding!! We were referred by the venue and never had time to sample the food before the wedding. We were beyond pleasantly surprised!! We had turkey, brisket, cheesy potatoes and the amazing peach cobbler! All of our 130 guests raved about how tasty everything was. Thank you for making our special day even better! Sheila

    Cindy & Team 10/10

    Cindy and her team did a wonderful job with our wedding! When looking for a caterer, we had a hard time finding a caterer in or around Fredericksburg with availability, reasonable prices, and that was easy to work with. Cindy and her team at Riverside were incredibly responsive and easy to work with. I sent over the ideas I liked on her website, and she helped me build a fun menu in a few emails back and forth. (Please note: we had fancier food choices and it was all excellent!) She was very helpful when the final numbers came in and modified the invoice to accommodate our drop off in guests. On the day of, the food and service were both excellent: stations were set up to plan, plenty of staff was there to oversee everything, her team stayed and picked up all tables. Every guest I spoke with during and after the reception said "y'all's food was really good!" I even had a friend ask how Cindy makes her veggies as she liked them so much. My only regret is not setting up a tasting with Cindy prior to booking so that I could have had that meal twice :) I highly recommend anyone in the hill country having an event to look into using Riverside!

    Thank you so much Cassidy! It was a pleasure to work with you and I’m so happy that our food was enjoyed by all! Blessings to you and your family!

    Absolutely tasty and amazing!

    Cindy and her team are so wonderful and easy to work with. They definitely helped our wedding dreams come true. Not only are they so great to work with, but their food is absolutely DELICIOUS!! We had them cater our rehearsal dinner and wedding reception and they killed it both nights! I highly recommend using this catering company for your next special event. Anything they cook will surely leave you and your guests' tummies happy and full.

    Thank you for your kind words!! We are so happy and honored to be apart of yours and Austin’s wedding weekend!!

    Riverside Catering is wonderful!

    We would like to thank Cindy Zoeller and Riverside Catering for such a wonderful job they did at our house wedding on 03/25/2023. The food was amazing, the service was perfect and when asked, they also stayed to help serve the cake. Guests came up to us throughout the party to tell us how much they liked the food and wanted to know when and where Cindy was opening her own restaurant!

    Riverside Catering offers options for all budgets and a huge selection of food choices and sides. Whether you are looking laid back BBQ and tacos or elevated Chicken Marsala Florentine and Grilled Pork Loin Ribeye, Riverside Catering delivers (literally, LOL)

    Riverside Catering's reply:

    Thank you so much for the kind words and 5 stars!! It was a pleasure working with you and Tom! Thank you for choosing us to be apart of your Special day :)

    Exceptional service from a well-qualified catering company!

    Cindy and her team did an awesome job at our wedding. She was always responsive with my questions, and provided everything that we agreed upon. They are a very organized outfit that allowed us to enjoy our event without having to worry about the meal. We had tons of compliments on our meal (brisket, sausage, macaroni and cheese, and green bean casserole). Overall a professional vendor with great service and reasonable prices. Would highly recommend for others looking for an experienced catering service in the area (married in Fredericksburg, TX). Thank you so much for everything.

    Perfection

    Food was amazing, so many compliments all around! The most kind and professional team ever. They went beyond what they needed to do and even stayed late to save my day to help serve my cake. So much thanks goes to Cindy and her team!

    Stop looking...you've found it

    Riverside Catering is a wonderful catering service with amazing food and a great selection! We first only reserved them for our reception, but ended up using them for our cocktail hour and rehearsal dinner. We had cheese enchiladas, charcuterie cups, and bar-b-que - all tasted amazing. If you are looking for an affordable catering company with great food look no further!

    Absolutely Amazing!

    I can't recommend Riverside Catering enough! Not only is their food delicious, but their staff is friendly and helpful. We had both Texan and non-Texan friends/family raving about how great the brisket and sausage is! My personal favorite is the mac and cheese, which Cindy was kind enough to give us an extra platter of for the day after the wedding! Thank you Riverside for being part of our special day! We will remember that food forever!

    Great service!

    Working with Riverside Catering was an awesome experience! From the tasting out on a ranch in Boerne, to communicating with Cindy, and to the day of the actual wedding, everything with Riverside Catering was amazing. Cindy is very communicative and responsive when I had questions. She is also very flexible and open to changes if you decide to change your mind about something. The food was a delicious hit (the mac and cheese was our favorite!). We also had a lot of leftovers that we were able to eat throughout the week after we got married. The sausage heats up nicely. If you want an easy-going and seamless experience while wedding planning, Riverside Catering is the way to go!

    Professional and great

    Riverside came to my rescue when my catering company pulled out. I didn’t get o taste the food and they did not disappoint. The brisket was so moist and all the food had flavor. We chose Queso and dares for appetizers and people are still raving about them. Cindy was quick to answer my calls and emails, even if it was about changing our order. We didn’t have much left over and her team was professional as well

    Delicious food, AMAZING service, & unbeatable pricing

    Cindy & the whole Riverside Catering crew brought professionalism, great service, & best of all: delicious food! Due to planning the wedding from a different state, we were not able to do a tasting, but the food exceeded every expectation! We got SO many compliments! With changing COVID demands, Cindy worked closely with me to ensure that the guests were cared for & safe in all of the food/beverage areas. Would definitely recommend to anyone wanting delicious food, AMAZING service, & unbeatable pricing.

    Food was perfect!

    The food was amazing! We didn't have time to do a tasting but I read reviews on wedding wire and they were true y'all! I also saw that they had served at my venue before and that made me feel at ease, but seriously cannot recommend them enough! The food was fresh, they had kids options, and it was tasty. If you can book them I would! The owner is sweet, flexible, and fast responding! Hope this review helps you book them! (:

    Delicious, affordable and I'm still dreaming about the BBQ

    Cindy is AMAZING!!!!! Her food is the best BBQ I've ever had and I wish she had a storefront so I could enjoy it beyond my wedding. She was prompt to answer emails, very accomodating, and very professional. She made our day so easy and was incredibly affordable. Wish I could give her 10 stars!

    AMAZING wedding food!!

    I can't say enough great things about Cindy and her team. First off, she was willing to meet us wherever we wanted for our tasting, so we decided on a park by the river in Boerne. When we got there the food was nice and hot and she brought more than enough for us to taste/share. The hardest part was deciding what we wanted because everything was so good.
    Day of the wedding they showed up right on time and were quiet as a mouse setting up at the reception hall which was right next to our ceremony. They were very professional and efficient. There was no slow down in the lines while serving the guests and the clean up was just as quick.
    I have had nothing but amazing reviews from all of our guests. I even had one of my family members say "your wedding was beautiful, but oh my god where did you get your food!? It was the best wedding food I've ever had!"
    We can't thank Riverside Catering enough for the great service and incredible spread of food. The Mac and Cheese bar we did was my favorite part and 2 months later we are still hearing about it from friends. I would absolutely recommend Riverside catering to anyone needing great food and professional service all at a very fair price.

    Riverside Catering's reply:

    Thank you! It was great working with you. We were honored to be apart of such a special moment in your life. Makes me so happy to hear that everyone loved our food. Thanks for taking time to give us 5 stars and tell about your experience. :)

    Amazing Texas BBQ

    We loved Cindy from the time of our tasting until our wedding night. The tasting was such a nice preview of what she has to offer. We loved that we could add appetizers and interchange meals! Our guests raved about the Mac and cheese bar and couldn’t get over how much they loved the meal. Cindy was always responsive and easy to work with! We recommend Riverside catering for your catering needs!
