    Our experience with Simply Delicious Dishes was wonderful from start to finish. The owner, Arlethea, was incredibly professional, very accessible, and clearly knowledgeable about her catering services. The attention to detail in both the presentation and taste of the food was outstanding. The cocktail hour spread and buffet dinner display were beautifully arranged, and our guests raved about the delicious flavors of the entrees and iced tea. Simply Delicious Dishes truly helped make our wedding day special.

  • Awesome Catering!

    Simply Delicious Dishes was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding catering. From the first time we reached out, they were incredibly kind, helpful, and patient in answering all of our questions. Their communication was consistently informative, ensuring we felt well taken care of throughout the entire planning process. On the day of the wedding, their team's excellent work, punctuality, and attention to detail were evident in the exceptional quality of the food and service they provided. I would greatly recommend Simply Delicious Dishes to any couple - they are simply the best wedding caterers we could have hoped for.

    Arlethea and her company was such a gift and blessing to our wedding day! She went above and beyond to make our day special. From all of the little details and extra support to the outstanding meal provided to our guests, we could not be more grateful to her and her team for everything they did for us. The food and service was incredible! She worked with us and supported us along every step of the journey, and was able to work within our tight budget. Thank you again for EVERYTHING! Don't look any where else for your food and catering needs. You will have everything you need in Simply Delicious Dishes :)
