it is my pleasure to write a review for Laselle events, I'm completely satisfied with the presentation of the meal. The meals were prepared with precision and displayed vibrant colors as well as delectable protein. I've experienced the Laselle events product on several occasions and I'm happy to say that the offerings are consistently excellent. The meals provided a party for my mouth :-). I'm certain that the meals were prepared and delivered fresh, and I could taste the difference in the quality of the dish and just when I thought they were done they delivered an elegant glutton free option for dessert to complete the evening. Hiring Laselle Events was the best thing I could have done, and my wife appreciated the meals as well. My friends are still talking about the meals. Well done Laselle Events!

Serve All Catering 

4.6

  • Serves Lakeland, FL

About our Owner and Founder of the business Tim is Distinguished for his talent and creativity on the national food scene, Chef-proprietor Tim has earned the honor as one of the Top 25 Chefs in America by Food & Wine Magazine after he founded the nationally acclaimed restaurant, Serve All Catering, in 1987. Serve All Catering Company was established in 1987 in order to meet the growing demand for high-quality special events and corporate catering in Orlando Florida.

Working with Serve All Catering through our recent gathering was a blessing and extremely smooth. We wanted a simple holiday meal served buffet style for 150 in a home, albeit a large home, but a home nonetheless. Jen, Chef Chris, and the rest of the staff knocked it out of the park. From set up to clean up, they took care of every detail. We had some major allergies in the group, and Chef Chris was on top of that the entire time. They even brought the linens for the tables we had rented. As the event organizer, I didn't have to deal with one detail regarding the dinner, which was such a blessing. When they left, it looked they they had never been there, it was that well cleaned up. Kudos to Serve All Catering for having such a effective and professional staff! I highly recommend them for your future catering needs.

My husband and I chose the plated dinner and Let me tell you, that exceeded our expectations!

Our wedding was planned in approximately 10 months and from the moment I sat down with Melissa at Dade City BBQ I knew it was the perfect choice for us. First, she was kind, always answered any and all questions we had, no matter how small they were. We met for a tasting (delish!) and fell in love with her even more. In addition, we tasted all the meats and sides for a BBQ buffet. We chose pulled pork, chicken quarters and added brisket. Our 3 sides were mac & cheese, collard greens and potato salad w/ cornbread. They were ALL delicious. Our guests raved about everything and especially the greens! We also opted for a grazing table for our guests. It was beautifully presented and absolutely beautiful and delicious. Our guests were in awe! She even made us our own plate because she knew we were busy talking with our guests. I would highly recommend this caterer! VERY FAIR prices, large portions and happy guests. I am 100% pleased. Thank you Melissa and your amazing staff!!

Chef David Taylor LLC 

5.0

  • Starts at $510
  • Serves Lakeland, FL

I'm a Private chef and culinary consultant for local restaurants. I've been providing gourmet on-site meals and catering for many occasion in central Florida. ​ I hold a Serv-Safe Certification, Florida DBPR contracted food safety provider and -COI- certificate of insurance for third parties general liability.

We are so blessed to have found Chef David Taylor to create a wonderful menu for our daughter’s wedding. We had had a couple of tastings with event caterers and were so extremely disappointed with the lack of creativity and quality that it made us anxious. Luckily, we found Chef David who advertised being a private Chef vs. a caterer. He taught us the difference and boy was he right! He helped us put together a great menu and during the tasting, we experienced an incredible meal from appetizers to a three course high end meal. We opted for a surf and turf main dish and let me tell you…the steak was most tender and flavorful and scallops tasted out of this world! Not only were the dishes he made extremely delicious, but the presentation quite impressive. Chef David provides his experience, talent, responsiveness, and recommendations to make the vision we have for this special day a reality. We know our guests are going to be impressed by the presentation, quality of the meal, and enjoy the interactions with Chef and his staff. We are so excited about this upcoming wedding! I will update this review after the wedding event early next month!
