We cannot say enough great things about Cutting Edge and are so thankful we hired them as our wedding caterer. They were listed as a "preferred vendor" at our venue and, after an intro phone call with Jessica, my husband and I quickly knew they were the team we wanted to go with. She was so helpful from the start, answering all of our questions, and made us feel really comfortable with the services and flexibility they offered. On top of that, their prices are incredibly reasonable. Throughout the coming months, Jessica, Jeremy, and Angel were great about communicating with us. The tasting was one of our favorite memories from being engaged - such a fun experience (in the most gorgeous venue!) and we were all completely blown away by the food. The hardest part was narrowing down what we wanted to include on our menu... Fast forward to the wedding, where the entire staff knocked it out of the park. Our guests raved about the food, service, and presentation, and it was such a relief to know the Cutting Edge team had everything taken care of. One guest even told us they mistakenly assumed a waiter was on our wedding planner's team because he was just that helpful and knowledgeable! Talk about someone going above and beyond at their job. It's very clear that Cutting Edge cares about its clients and will do whatever they can to make your "catering dreams" come true. We're so grateful to the entire team and hope we have a chance to work with them again in the future. Thank you, Cutting Edge, for all you did to make our wedding day amazing!

It was such an honor to work with Cutting Edge Catering for two events supporting Big Brothers Big Sisters! Back in September, we had a cornhole tournament with a mardi gras theme, and over 250 people - all of my attendees raved at how amazing the food was and the service was just over the top! Because of such rave reviews from my supporters, I booked them again for a holiday party for our Board Members at a private home. Once again, the service, professionalism, display and taste was PHENOMENAL. I can't stress enough how amazing it was to work with the entire team, and now, I will be telling everyone about the amazing service that Jeremy and Angel and team provide! Thank you Cutting Edge Catering!

After fundraising for 4 years we finally put on Claremont High School's Grad Night and I can't stress enough how amazing Cutting Edge Catering was from beginning to end. Jeremy, Angel, Molly, and the entire team were phenomenal to work with. From menu planning (keeping all of our dietary restrictions in mind and making sure there was something for everyone) to execution, this catering team delivered delicious food and service to over 850 people that evening.. and still had enough energy and staff to feed the 300+ graduates at another location later on at 2 in the morning. We are so fortunate to have found them! Can't wait to work with you all again!

It doesn't matter how big or small your party is, if you want amazing food and service to match this is the caterer you want! The salmon and tri-tip were flavorful, tender and moist. The salads were fresh and bright just the way you want them and all the vegetable dishes were something a little different than the ordinary catered food. Don't skip the mashed potatoes or macaroni and cheese or you'll be sorry!

This catering company is the best! The company I work for have hired cutting edge 2 years in a row for the award ceremony and they have done a phenomenal job both times. We are planning to use them for our future ceremonies. They are so easy to work with and the staff is so friendly and helpful. Thank you so much Jessica, Angel and Mollie, you guys are the best.

My fiancé and I were considering this caterer for our wedding and did two separate menu tastings. We went with another caterer as my fiancé is Indian and we ultimately went with a family friend to cater our wedding. However, I would 100% recommend Cutting Edge based on their level of service and quality of food. Jessica and Jeremy were very responsive to all of our questions via email. They also went above and beyond to make adjustments to our second tasting. Their food is also super tasty. I still think about the red skin mashed potatoes from the tasting when I'm hungry!

I cannot begin to say enough wonderful things about Cutting Edge catering! They recently catered our wedding and not only did they provide AMAZING food, much better than any I have ever had at a wedding, but the staff was also professional, personable, efficient, and all around wonderful! Throughout the entire experience with Cutting Edge, from initial contact and planning (which was last minute as our previous caterer had to back out) to set-up and serving at the wedding, they made the process easy and seamless, and it is clear that they really know what they are doing. Our wedding was in Big Bear in January and the night before it was expected to snow. Cutting Edge actually rented a 4-wheel drive vehicle for their staff in case it was needed and booked them accommodations on the mountain for the night before our wedding to make sure that they were able to make it to the wedding. In fact, some of our vendors had to back out last minute due to the weather, but Cutting Edge went above and beyond by planning ahead to ensure that they would be able to make it. They had already given us a wonderful deal on the price of our wedding package, so honestly I can't imagine that they made very much off of our wedding! THIS IS PHENOMENAL CUSTOMER SERVICE! Regardless of their profit margins they did what they needed to to make our wedding happen and I cannot thank them enough for this. After the wedding, the staff packed up all of the leftovers for us and created a beautiful charcuterie board for my husband and I to enjoy after the festivities. As if this all wasn't enough, they also gave us a wonderful little gift bag with thoughtful items (chapstick because of the cold weather, chocolates, and even a Starbucks gift card)!With the weather, last minute changes, and putting this whole thing together in a short timeline, we were beyond impressed with Cutting Edge Catering! I could not possibly recommend them more highly!

Cutting edge CAME THROUGH!!!! I am so happy that my husband and I booked them for our wedding. Jessica was the one I was in communication with the most and she really made it so easy for me by answering every little question I had. Her responses were always so fast! Up to the day of my wedding jessica made me feel at ease with all of the efficient emails she had been sending me that when the day of the wedding came I felt 100 percent confident that they would perfect the day! My guest were raving about how amazing the food and drinks were and everyone loved Cameron the bartender because of his professional and friendly service. He was not shy with the drinks he was making for my guest! We are so happy with the service from cutting edge and will most definitely book with them again in the future!

Truly had an amazing experience with Cutting Edge! Got married a few weeks ago and the attention to detail, service, and food was absolutely fantastic. Their staff is quick in regards to communication and service. Sugar especially was a hit amongst our guests and had such amazing positivity throughout the evening. The tasting was more food than we could've ever imagined and we left feeling happy and excited for the menu that we had selected. The appetizers were an absolute hit with guests during our cocktail hour and I will forever remember the insanely good tomato soup shooters and grilled cheese. Highly reccommend this company! They will work with you on price and make everything you want and need happen. xx

Cutting Edge Catering was fantastic. I reached out to them to cater my Mom's memorial service and they were very responsive about all my questions and concerns. We went with a mixture of deli sandwiches, potato salad & caprese salad, fruit salad with the chips, brownies and cookies. All of it was very good and we received a lot of compliments from our guests but the number one hit was the potato salad! The servers and banquet captain were so accommodating and helpful. I would highly recommend them and will definitely use them again for other events. Thank you so much Cutting Edge Catering.
I'm confused because this company has a lot of positive reviews so when booking them I had a sense of relief bc I thought I'd be taken care of. I got married early this month & let me say that their staff was '5/5 stars' on the day of the event. However, this review is based on how Jeremy handled the issue that occurred. He has terrible customer service & comes off condescending & rude. To start, We hired this company close to a year before the event & the only time they reached out was for us to sign the contract & to start the deposit / payments. Moving forward, I was the one to have to reach out to get the ball rolling for the bar menu & details etc. Mind you this was a Month before our wedding & I had requested a meeting in person or over FaceTime a long while ago. The venue actually had really good things to say about him & how we would be in great communication so I'm still wondering what the heck happened not only with communication but the attitude. (The venue also only had 2 bar services to pick from, i think they should add more options) All our payments were complete so when he sent me an email saying that we had one more payment my heart dropped bc we had just been in communication when I sent the last payment (it is not cheap!), turns out he was a little unorganized & didn't realize we had paid. Not a huge deal but when planning a wedding, you are already so stressed that you should not have to Reach out to them or be told you haven't paid. Unprofessional. He & the venue approved for us to rent a keg to serve beer to our Friends & family. Come the day of, they were pouring it foamy bc they did not keep it cold over night. He basically blamed me for their wrong doing & even went as far as saying that he never approved the keg (when I have emails of him approving it ) When expressing to him over a phone call all my concerns he never once apologized for anything & just wrote me & my family off, calling them liars after I had explained a small incident at the bar the night of. We had to return the FULL keg to BevMo & were not refunded the $200 it cost for the beer they were not able to pour. Honestly, I wasn't too upset about it because I thought i would just reach out, explain to him what happened and he would resolve it & possibly reimburse us. Or at the minimum be nice and apologize! Nope. I was met with hostility & emails just pointing the finger at me. ME, the bride who literally was busy getting married. He said he would meet me half way and not "invoice me the rest of the tips that were due to his bartenders" (he made this up) & after asking what he was talking about & to show me where in the contract it said that he completely moved on to blaming something else on the keg fail. My husband & I actually walked up to the bartenders at the end of the night to tip them & they told us that they did very good on their tips (they had a tip jar & venmo QR code) & that they wouldn't accept our cash. What trips me out is that in the contract it says that they will not walk away from a problem...let's just say he broke the contract P.s. Gabby the bar manager was great! If we were put into contact with her sooner, it would have made a world of difference. I wonder if there aren't more reviews like this since it was so damn draining dealing with a business owner who does not have his customers in mind. Anyways, I hope that if you book them that he turns his attitude around & gives you the service you deserve-- & actually resolves issues, should you have them.

Cutting Edge Catering did an outstanding job for our recent event. They catered lunch, a reception/Happy Hour and dinner. Everyone I delt with was professional and very accommodating! The food and service were fantastic, and we will absolutely use them again!Bill F.

Honestly 1 of the best experiences during my wedding planning was working with Cutting Edge Catering. They not only catered our wedding but the family brunch the next day. The process of selecting a menu is so easy and fun! They make you feel like family and only want to make your day feel special. The wait staff was incredible and so attentive to every guest. Our friends and family are still talking about how great the food was! You cannot go wrong working with them for any event!
Faraz F.
Jeremy, Angel, and the whole team were such a joy to work with! They were so flexible, willing to accommodate each and every request to make our wedding day the BEST. Guests continue to rave about the quality of the food (from the incredible passed apps at cocktail hour to the steaks, chicken, and halibut dinner, to the desserts and late night bites) -- all perfect and WAY exceeded expectations. We've already recommended Cutting Edge to all our friends and hope to work with the team again soon!
Crystal M.
Let me start by saying I wish I could have given them a full 5 stars because they ROCKED the day of our wedding 5/7/22. During the typical mingling after everyone ate the first comment from our guest was that the food was amazing! Even before they said congratulations, lol. From the App's to the dinner everyone was floored at how everything was cooked so perfectly especially the ribeye's. Believe this even the vegan bell pepper dish received rave reviews. I don't have a single picture of the food because it was all gone so fast. The staff was so attentive to us we actually got to eat and it was hot. Our drinks were always full. I was originally against the open bar but when it was a bonus with our package, I am very happy we had it. I did find out closer to the wedding that Cutting Edge does offer other services had we known we would have utilized them more. The more one vendor can do the easier it is, my biggest recommendation. The reason for only 4 stars was due to the communication in the weeks prior to the wedding. In the beginning everything was great communicating with Jeremy but we also did book over a year before. Unfortunately in the weeks prior we communicated through another employee that did make things more stressful than they needed to be. We would have appreciated more professionalism and organization in those communications. Other than those hiccups the food and service the day of was amazing and I would highly recommend.
