“Mama D’s provided drop-off catering for my son’s Luau Grad party, and it was absolutely amazing food. We got so many compliments and inquiries into who made it. Melt in your mouth chicken, killer BBQ sauce, pasta salad and beyond amazing service. Dana, I can never thank you guys enough for pitching in on my surprise coleslaw situation. You guys saved the day, and I hope we have the opportunity to work with you again in the future.”

“Our organization was in a time crunch when the caterer we hired backed out. Mama D’s responded quickly, her food, set up, and staff all were exceptional. We will definitely be using her services in the future.”

We had the best experience with Dana and her Staff. This was for our Son's wedding.
They had everything ready to go. They set up and served a beautiful buffet. The tri tip and Lemon Cream Chicken was so delicious that many guests asked for seconds! My favorite was the bourbon glazed carrots, but many people mentioned that the cranberry vinigrette on the salad was the bomb! I could go on and on about the food.
They were flawless in the execution, matched the brides colors, and added twinkle lights too!
They left the kitchen clean and in great shape.
I very enthusiastically recommend this caterer if you want a worry free and delicious event.
