Chef Papa's Cafe and Catering

We used Chef Papa’s services for my dad’s retirement party in New Smyrna last weekend. From the menu development, communication, payment and execution, it was absolutely flawless. The 75 guests (including the guest of honor) were blown away with the food, service and presentations. We are so grateful for their professionalism and talent - highly recommend anyone needing a caterer to use their services. Thank you team! 10/10!

Wow, enjoyed Chef Papa’s special Italian dinner as a guest of a local and it was THE BEST! I enjoyed the meatball appetizer while others “yummmed” about the salad. All but one at our table LOVED the shrimp and artichoke linguine and another had the veal parm. Only a little leftover by those of us who had the meatball app because it was so delicious and filling. Couldn’t say no to the Lemongello cake and the Tiramisu, again so delicious. Wish I were staying in town for another opportunity to delight in Chef Pap’s delicacies!

Great sandwich shop

Had a wedding reception at Coral Sands on April 13, 2024. The venue was perfect, and Chef Papas killed it! People talked about the food and how great it was! Everyone said how good it was! Staff is very professional and accommodating! Would totally recommend!

The entire experience was fantastic. From the initial tasting, to the ceremony. Callie was very responsive to all of our emails making the planning a breeze. The catering prices are very affordable with a wide variety to pick from. The day of the wedding, Callie and her staff were amazingly attentive to us and our guests, always making sure there was fresh apps coming out and cleaning up as the night went on. And of course the food was delicious too. We are still receiving compliments on the chicken and waffles and the Tuscan chicken. Thanks Tom and Callie!

If you're looking for top-notch catering, look no further!Tom, Callie, and crew were top notch with the food and service for our wedding. We worked with Tom and Callie directly for the tastings and menu preparations. Most of a wedding can really hang on the quality of food for guests, and the compliments of Chef Papas is one we continue to hear even months later.They are dependable and good people that made our special day perfect. They gave us to-go boxes that we enjoyed for the day after our wedding, which is so thoughtful and is magnificent customer service! We would recommend Chef Papa's for any catering service.PS: Even if you don't like bread pudding, you must ask for a sample here- it's magic!

Excellent meals. Fresh and delicious! Had Reuben Chowder and a Tuna Melt on rye …perfect lunch size and price…kind waitress!

Chef papa and his team catered our wedding and it was amazing!! Callie was so helpful and sweet all of the times that I needed to email or call. They were able to accommodate all of our diet restriction (tree nut allergies, vegan, vegetarian) and everything was delicious. It was all hot when it was served to the guests and chef papa and his team even cut up the cake, cleaned up, and then packaged up leftover food and cake for us to take home! I am so glad that we used chef papa for our wedding and I would recommend them to anyone. For the price and the quality, I don’t think you will find better.

Awesome food and atmosphere!

They catered our wedding and the food was amazing! The taste test was so difficult because everything was so good. I am so grateful for them!

Chef Papas was a fabulous venue for our midday wedding reception! We had about 70 people and a live musician. A small dance floor was just right. Callie and her staff were fantastic. They seemed to genuinely be happy for us. The service was great and the food plentiful and delicious. Also very reasonable!! Highly recommend them!!!
