47 Best Caterers in Tampa

“I recently worked on a production set that was catered by this company. I was very impressed not only by the quality and taste of the food but how well it was all packaged. Each order was individually and thoughtfully packaged for us. Their experience was evident and showed even in the smallest details. I highly recommend this company.“

“Great place with friendly people, smiles and the best ice cream.“

“Absolutely amazing! The paella was delicious, fresh, and full of flavor—everyone at our event loved it. The team was professional, friendly, and made the whole experience seamless. Highly recommend for any special occasion, and we will definitely be booking them again!“

“Stopped by this brisket shop and wow — I’m still thinking about it! I ordered the double meat plate with double brisket, and it did not disappoint. Every slice was packed with flavor — some lean cuts that were tender and smoky, and others with just the right amount of fat that melted in your mouth. The bark was perfectly seasoned, and the smoke ring? Chef’s kiss. 💨 The sides deserve their own shoutout — the mac and cheese was creamy, cheesy, and topped with that golden crust, the kind that makes you go back for seconds. And let’s not forget the soft roll and the tangy pickled onions that added the perfect contrast to the rich brisket. I even dipped a piece of brisket into their barbecue sauce, and it took things to the next level. This spot is a must-visit for any BBQ lover. If you’re thinking about going — do it. Highly recommend the double brisket!“

“Wow! We had two food trucks (2 Rowdy Roosters and The Chief's Cantina) at our school's Prom. The kids absolutely loved it. They provided great options, the delicious food, and everyone we interacted with was kind and helpful. Kim was a pleasure to work with to coordinate the truck and menu options. We will definitely book them for a future event!“

“We couldn’t have asked for a better catering experience for our wedding! They flawlessly catered for 150 people, and everything exceeded our expectations. The food was absolutely amazing and our guests are still raving about it. The hors d’oeuvres were plentiful and beautifully presented, and I’m still dreaming about the coconut shrimp!

The grazing table was such a perfect touch and added an elegant, inviting feel to the cocktail hour. The dinner service was seamless. The food came out quickly, was fresh, and tasted incredible.

We are so thankful for the team’s attention to detail, professionalism, and hard work throughout both the planning process and the day of the event. They truly helped make our wedding unforgettable. Highly, highly recommend!“

“Susan and the team at Catering by Roberts were absolutely incredible! From the very beginning, Susan was so much more than just our caterer—she was an invaluable resource throughout our entire wedding planning process. She took the time to answer questions, guide us through decisions, and even recommended other vendors, which made planning so much less stressful.

One thing we especially appreciated was being able to attend tastings before finalizing our menu. It was incredibly helpful and gave us confidence that we were choosing the perfect options for our wedding. The variety of food available was amazing, and everything we selected was absolutely delicious.

We received countless compliments from our guests about the food all night long. Many people told us it was some of the best wedding food they had ever had! The quality, presentation, and flavor exceeded our expectations.

We are so grateful to Susan and her team for their hard work, professionalism, and support throughout the entire process. They played a huge role in making our wedding day so special, and we cannot recommend Catering by Roberts highly enough!“

“Had the taco trio; pork beef and brisket. “Shia la Beef” (brisket) was my favorite but all were fantastic! Chips and queso were bland to me but I added pico and ate with my tacos. Ah-mazing nonalcoholic horchata and great friendly staff that took care to avoid my avocado allergy. Wonderful 🤌“

“Absolutely amazing service, presentation and food. I can’t say enough about the best catering service I have had the pleasure of working with. Our daughters wedding weekend started with the welcome cocktail reception in downtown tampa and ended with a delicious brunch on our “Caddyshack” yacht. 5 plus stars for every aspect of their catering service! I highly recommend them for any of your catering needs.“

“Lauren and the entire Good Food Events + Catering team are awesome! I worked with them recently for a client's wedding at Station House St Pete. The client was SO happy, and I was very impressed with how great their food and service was. I will definitely be working with them in the future to fulfill clients' wedding day dream needs!“

“estoy adicto al brisket sándwich . 🔥🔥😋🍽 esta riquísimo.“

“EVE Catering provided the entrees for our family Memorial Day gathering. The entrees were blue cheese burgers and BBQ chicken. The burgers were so good I was only able to get 1. My sons made sure any remaining burgers were devoured. I was able to get more than 1 piece of chicken. To coin a chicken phrase, each piece I was fortunate to have was finger-licking good. I am looking forward to the next time my mouth and tongue are fortunate enough to partake of food from EVE's Catering.“

“Delicious tacos 🌮 and margaritas 🍹!“

“Latam was our food caterer for our wedding and we could not be more pleased. Denise was such a pleasure to work with and incredibly accommodating for all of our needs. Everyone mentioned how the good the food was at the wedding and we were so happy to have selected such a good caterer to support our day. Would recommend Latam Catering to anyone looking for an event caterer.“

“They Are Amazing Great Food And Great Staff😃“

“AMAZING!! Chef Jorge cooked the most wonderful meal for our family last night in celebration of my mother’s birthday. He bought everything fresh the day of, and served us a 7 course dinner. Everything tasted delicious and was exactly to our specifications. It was so nice having the relaxing environment of our home rather than going to a steakhouse. I have small kids so it was wonderful when they got bored to just send them to another room to watch a movie rather than an embarrassing melt down at Ruth Chris etc. also, nice to be able to serve our own wine and not pay inflated restaurant prices! I highly, highly recommend. My parents want him over every week! Thanks Chef Jorge!“

“I highly recommend! We had family over for Thanksgiving and they all raved about how great the food was. Very easy to order, delivered on time, incredible service!“

“We had a big Brunch Celebration Party for my son's 35th, husband's 70th and house 100th Birthday and our 42nd wedding Anniversary. All the food from Joan's Catering was absolutely delicious, plentiful and beautifully presented! The two servers and bar tender could not have been more helpful and with it! High top tables and tableclothes came exactly when arranged. It is a rare experience to give praise that everything was Excellent!“
