The Tangerine Food Company

I was treated to some delicious yummies at a party recently. The staff was amazing and attentive. Everything was perfect. The brushetta and watermelon with whipped feta were my favorites.

We used them for a wedding reception and they went above and beyond. The food was amazing and the staff was wonderful. I would highly recommend using this company for any event.

Tangerine Food Co provided the catering for the celebration of life event for my mom we held at the Thoreau Center. Everything was great! From the menu planning to the on-site staff and the food. Many people commented on how good the food was. Very much appreciate the quality of the food and experience working with Tangerine. It helped make the event special and memorable. Thank you!

My ex wife works there, absolutely loves it there. Owners have nailed it, the food is all amazing, they treat their employees great, the atmosphere is phenomenal!! Happy employees means superb service with a genuine smile and fantastic food, a lot of it with a unique Tangerine twist. The management of Tangerine can only be called genius.

My partner and I got married last October at Mainframe Studios with Tangerine as our caterer and people are STILL raving about the food! We've been to three weddings since, and at each one multiple people have told us that the food at our wedding was the best they'd ever had. Working with Susan and her team was a dream -- they clearly know what they're doing! We had a guest with a very serious food allergy and they went above and beyond to make sure he could have a good meal. I'm only sad that I didn't get to enjoy more of the food because we were too busy chatting with guests!

My experience with Tangerine and Susan was amazing! Susan was great at communicating throughout the whole process! She was honest about what food would work for the amount of guests at our wedding. We received RAVE reviews on the food from our wedding. We had a variety of desserts, one being a strawberry short cake. There were none left at the end of the night! People kept going back for more! We also had a late night snack of breakfast burritos which were put out about 10:30pm. The folks that stayed that late thoroughly enjoyed them! I know we did late that night back at the hotel!

Before we even went to their tasting event I knew I wanted Tangerine to cater our wedding because I love their commitment to sourcing food as locally as possible and that they were happy to accommodate my unusual request to match some of our food to our Halloween theme. Once we went to the tasting event it just reaffirmed how much I wanted them and convinced my partner that there was only once choice for us! With a few gluten free and vegan guests, they were very accommodating to everyone! Everything was incredibly tasty for our wedding and we got rave reviews from so many of our guests, even our DJ raved about the food! So many clean plates after dinner, it was awesome! So incredibly thankful Tangerine was available to be part of our wedding and we’ll always recommend their services to anyone planning an event in need of catering.

Terrible.

I used the Tangerine Food Company for my wedding reception in November 2021. The food was delicious and I got a lot of compliments from my guests. Their staff were also really easy to work with in helping us plan the menu and make some last-minute changes. One thing I really liked was that there were plenty of appetizers and desserts to go around. I have been to weddings where it seems like they run out of food part way through the cocktail hour. They also helped make the day really special with some details unique to our guests' needs. Of all the money spent on the wedding day, I feel like the tangerine food company was the best decision we made. Worth every penny.

Best in Des Moines!

Loved the Valentine's dinner and wine. Very impressed with the quality, pickup, instructions, cost, easy of prep, generous portions, friendliness--everything! Just back to Des Moines after 15 years away. Already know I'll be a regular. Can't wait for lunch at the Art Center.

I love using Tangerine for my corporate events and I recommend them to all my clients. Their hard work and dedication to making our events unique with the food and drink selection is always a big hit with our event attendees.

Impressed with their catering for the Metro Opera, very high quality food and accommodation for my lactose issue. Quickly served the large crowd.

I wish I could give this company 1 million stars! I just had their Hannukah meal delivered last night, and the brisket was out of this world. It was hands down the best I have ever had. Everything else was top notch, but oh that brisket! The food was delivered with a smile, professionally packaged, too. It was very easy to heat and eat. I am so glad that I purchased double the amount of brisket than I needed so I can have leftover for days. I now have a new Hannukah tradition---thank you Susan for making absolutely the most delicious Hannukah meal I have ever had.
