I cannot say enough good things about The Black Italian! We had a very last minute catering need and not only did they come through with the most accommodating attitude and service I’ve ever experienced, but the food was INCREDIBLE. We will definitely use them again for any catering needs we have. Everyone at our event complimented the food, even the pickiest eaters. Thank you Chef Paula for making my mom’s birthday spectacular!!!

I placed a catering order for their grilled wings, garlic Parmesan wedges along with homemade ranch, and buffalo sauce. A veggie tray with peppers, carrots, celery, and grape tomatoes was included. Everything was exceptional!! I used this for a ladies night and everyone raved about how fresh the food was and how good everything tasted. Paula was so helpful and kind throughout the process. I highly recommend!! I’ll be back!

The Black Italian catered our company holiday party on short notice, and the food was AMAZING. Chef Paula and her team are so talented and offer a lovely array of pasta options for people with all kinds of dietary needs. I highly recommend the marsala mushroom pasta and anything with meatballs. Meal was delivered right on time, and service was super friendly. Support your local businesses!

Chef Paula and her team delivered a delicious meal to our company holiday party. Everything was hot, fresh, and well packed. I'm still thinking about how delicious the marsala mushroom dish was. I could have eaten a tray of just those mushrooms alone! I'd wholeheartedly recommend them for any catering/deliveries in the future, and can't wait to order from them again!

Edit: The Leadership of the restaurant replied and explained why the storefront is there but they appeared closed. I will look for an opportunity to use them for catering at work or check out their prepackaged meals at Value Market as they explained below. Its hard to rate because when we arrived they were closed. No note. Nothing on Google, just closed and dark inside. It was a Thursday so not a typical day for a restaurant to close. I just hope they are OK.

I ordered for pickup July 11,2025 they took the order while the restaurant was CLOSED. I have called them three days in a row and have been IGNORED. They processed the payment and STOLE MY MONEY!

I've never been to this restaurant, but we used them for catering at my sister in law's wedding and EVERYONE loved it! Usually pasta catering at weddings is blah and bland ,but The Black Italian was full of flavor! Besides being delicious, they were friendly, warm, on time, and so helpful. I'm definitely going to make it in person to try more of the munu.

The Black Italian is the best catering option around! I work for a local nonprofit and we're always calling Paula with last minute changes and she is the absolute best and does what she can to make it happen for us. The food is the best, our team is always fighting over who gets to attend events that The Black Italian is catering. They also have options for all sorts of dietary needs, and that is so helpful when serving a crowd!
