Would NOT recommend
In terms of the quality of the food, I would give a 5 out of 5 star rating. In terms of customer service and responses I would give a 2 star rating. The food was cleaned up and taken away from cocktail hour and from dinner much too quickly. As someone (and the bride) with dietary restrictions, this was not appreciated as the food I could eat was taken away without checking to see if I was finished. I specifically requested a mashed potato bar during cocktail hour, and this was taken away before I was able to get a bowl. The head server also denied the request for me to get a bowl. When I brought up my concerns with the service the owner never apologized, made excuses, blamed other vendors, and gaslit me. When emailing with the owner, she called me by the incorrect name and was unaware of the details of my event (I live out of state and this was repeatedly addressed throughout the process of setting up a tasting and meetings, details she claimed she was unaware of by the end of my wedding). Even though I did not work directly with her in setting up and organizing my wedding, she is the owner and should get informed on the specifics of an event specially when responding to concerns and questions.
Great service, great food!!
Mountain Laurel was great to work with! Always responsive, even during their busy months. Ally and Jes were a pleasure to communicate with. The food was delicious - all of our guests were raving about the meals and hors doeuvres! Everyone was professional and helpful the day of. Highly recommend
Amazing catering service
Mountain Laurel was so great from start to finish! Their pricing was reasonable and they offered many accommodations and options for a great coursed meal. We are restaurant veterans, so we consider ourselves hard to please with food… the menu options were offered on a giant spreadsheet, but can be built out however you’d like! We created our own pasta course, and we tweaked ingredients in all of our dishes. The guests said it was the best wedding meal they’ve had! The staff was really awesome too with planning such a big meal. Communication was on point. My only disappointment was the dessert options, we had them sourced from the local Italian bakery and ML had arranged partnership with them … and unfortunately it was all cookies. We had hoped for tri colored glazed carrots but it seems that we all got diced roasted carrots instead. Otherwise it was a great experience and I would book them all over again. The venue was pretty remote and they did a seamless job on it. Thank you so much ML!
Wonderful!
Our food was fabulous thanks to Mountain Laurel. Everyone ate tons at cocktail hour and dinner, including us! People complimented the meal all night long. As the couple, we especially appreciated the private cocktail hour snacks and leftovers we ate later that night. Definitely worth booking MLC.
