We used Inspired Catering for our wedding, and they did an INCREDIBLE job! The team was extremely kind, professional, and executed great service. When we were doing our tastings, Inspired had a great showing. What sold us on them though, was Tom K. We felt so at ease with him, trusted his experience, and really knew that he would do a great job. He was always very honest with us and has a great energy. When it came to the wedding, the Inspired team was efficient and professional. We spoke to a few members of the team as we were getting ready for the day to start, and they were all so sweet and so enthusiastic! Aside from the service, the food was delicious!! We had also used them for lunch catering earlier in the day, and that food was also great. We used them once more at our Sunday brunch at the hotel, and the food was again, great. I appreciate Tom and the hard work that he put into the wedding, and for always making sure that we had what we needed.

We used Inspired Catering for my daughters wedding and if I could give more stars I would!. Inspired Catering served the most delicious food. My guests were in heaven! From the very beginning, they guided us and handled everything with care and professionalism. We did not worry about a single thing because they know exactly what to do. Tom and all of the servers were amazing. So kind, nice, professional, and service oriented. I highly recommend Inspired Catering. You will not go wrong!

They catered my wedding this weekend—everyone raved about the food from start to finish. They were so easy to work with and adaptable to our needs and requests. I loved working with them.

Inspired Catering and Events catered our wedding at the Columbus Park Refectory a couple of weeks ago and we’re still incredibly blown away by Liz and her team. From the start, Liz stood out as incredibly receptive and accommodating. This continued throughout the process and culminated in their incredible service on our big day.We truly could not have pulled off our wedding day without her expertise and dedicated work ethic— even more so when we pushed up our wedding by almost a year. Thanks to Liz and her incredible staff, we had the day we had always imagined, put together in two months. We were even able to salvage our outdoor ceremony after an unseasonable cold snap, thanks to an eleventh hour heater acquisition.Our intimate group thoroughly enjoyed their meals and everyone was well taken care of, including two vegans in a crowd of meat-lovers. Inspired’s quinoa enchiladas will forever change how my husband and I see quinoa— it was that good. However, we’re still dreaming about the short rib and potato au gratin we had on our wedding night. That alone should be all the convincing you need to hire them for your next event.Truly, none of us have never been to a wedding where we loved the food so, so much. From two families who love food, thank you.

I would not recommend doing business with this company under any circumstances.Inspired Catering was vending at a music festival. I decided to buy their food. Their employees stole or lost my credit card in less than 2 minutes. It was mind blowing and frightening they could be so disorganized working a high volume event.9:10pm: I arrived at Inspired Catering's booth and ordered food.9:12pm: I was given my food and gave my credit to their employee to pay.9:14pm: MY CREDIT CARD WAS STOLEN OR LOST BY INSPIRED CATERING STAFF*9:15pm: I am angry and ask them how they could lose my credit card in minutes and they shrug. I proceeded to press them to find out how they could be so incompetent and another employee says it wasn't her co-workers fault. No apologies.9:16pm: I AM EXTREMELY ANGRY. Their staff is not at all apologetic. I suspect staff may have stolen my credit card.9:17pm: Still no apologies so I took pictures of the tent and staff to report to festival management.9:20pm: As I am taking pictures the "manager" of the booth asks to speak to me. I finally receive an apology from him. I explain to him that I am traveling and this is my only method of payment. He took my phone number, said he would talk to business owner, and said he would call me with a follow-up.9:30pm: Fraudulent charges start being made on my credit card that Inspired Catering stole or lost.No one from Inspired ever called me back and I was stuck traveling without a credit card. Whether their staff was conducting a scam to steal credit cards or just totally incompetent causing them to lose my card in seconds - I recommend you steer clear of this business under any circumstances.*How my card was stolen or lost by Inspired Catering:There were 2 women working the counter and only 1 of them had credit card processing machine. Woman A helped me and Woman B was processing credit cards.Women A said she put my card on a counter or table so Woman 2 could run my card. Woman A then told me that Woman B HANDED MY CARD TO SOMEONE ELSE.

Inspired Catering was perfect for my wedding! The service was amazing and beyond that the food was delicious! I always say that people only remember really bad food or amazing food at weddings, nothing in between. Well, guests keep talking about how outstanding my food was, even the foodies! The staff was great and Liz, our main contact, was so wonderful! She was easy to work with and quick to respond. I can't recommend Inspired more for your wedding or any catering needs!

I can only speak from festival experience, as they were at Riot Fest.The food I had from their stall was absolutely delicious, albeit a little but overdone. They were lavender infused chicken strips served with peach BBQ sauce and coleslaw. The coleslaw was fine, pretty standard. The chicken strips (ignoring the touch over cooked) had a really nice flavor. I was afraid it was going to be super floral and weird, but it balanced out really nicely. The BBQ sauce was absolutely delicious, and I would put that on absolutely anything.I don't know much about this place as a caterer, but if this sampling is any indication of their skills, they're a safe bet!

My wife and I just got married on Saturday and used Inspired Catering and we were blown away. The food was top notch and to die for. The service was extremely professional, punctual and the care and effort was on full display throughout the entire catering process from start to finish.Typically you have your worries and stress during the wedding planning process, but I can honestly say that Inspired made the catering portion of the wedding process so easy.I highly recommend Inspired Catering and Events. You won’t be disappointed!
