I hired Walter Burke to cater our wedding. Words can not explain how impressed we were with this company! Angela was so easy and willing to provide me with everything I asked for. Angela really alleviated the stress that comes with wedding planning. When the day came I was astonished on how professional the staff who was with us at my event was! Everyone did a spectacular job! The food was amazing, the service was impeccable! I will forever be grateful for everyone involved! Thank you Walter Burke for making our special day a dream come true!

Walter Burke did an outstanding job catering our wedding this past spring in Santa Fe, NM. They knew our venue (El Rey Court) well and everything went seamless for set up to clean up. We felt like we had a lot of options and flexibility when it came to the menu, and our dinner menu perfectly reflected our vision of a southwest farm-to-table vibe. We decided to forego a wedding cake and do a big mix of mini desserts instead and it was such a hit! We included classics like cream puffs, tarts and whoopie pies, and they even included locally-inspired options pinon-flavored treats and Mexican wedding cookies - our guests really raved about the dessert table!I'd also like to note that the staff was also so kind and helpful throughout the evening as well. They even made sure to pull me and my husband aside with a plate of all our hors d'evours during cocktail hour to be sure we didn't miss out on all the amazing bites! So appreciated!

We were very fortunate to work with Walter Burke for our wedding at Ghost Ranch on 9/8/23. They were a class act all around! Angela was extremely responsive (very important when planning a destination wedding in particular!) and great at making suggestions when we were lost on what foods to provide for our guests or how many drinks we would need. She was patient as we made changes to our meal options and lagged on decisions about our rentals. The staff day-of was absolutely top-notch - this was the definition "not their first rodeo." I was nervous because the venue is very remote, but they arrived on time and worked great with our other vendors and our coordinator to make sure the reception looked amazing (we rented chairs, linens, china, and flatware, and they were all high-quality).We got a variety of small passed appetizers that were fresh and delicious, and a meal of New Mexican comfort food that left everyone full and happy. Henry, Barbara, Wanda, and the other fantastic staff made sure we were fed first and that our glasses were always full, and our guests mentioned they were impressed and felt well taken care of. Not to mention, the staff seemed genuinely excited for us and were just so friendly. This company is very organized and we can't recommend them enough!

Our wedding day was a dream come true, and a significant part of that dream was made possible by Walter Burke Catering Company. They were organized, communicated effectively, and were always prompt in their responses. We can't thank them enough for their exceptional service and delicious food. If you're in search of a caterer who will exceed your expectations and make your special day even more memorable, we wholeheartedly recommend Walter Burke. The food was nothing short of spectacular. From the appetizers to the main course, each dish was beautifully presented and tasted divine. One thing that stood out was Walter Burke’s willingness to accommodate our specific requests. They worked closely with us to create a menu that perfectly reflected our tastes and preferences. Whether it was dietary restrictions or special menu items, they handled everything with grace and professionalism.

Wow! Where do I begin!? I agree with previous comments: from the beginning Angela was responsive, helpful (even giving me tips that I had not thought of!), and professional. The staff that came to the Wedding Reception (Eduardo, Barbara, Kat, Val, and all the others) were beyond incredible: they were handed a difficult situation when my rental company did not arrive and they absolutely stepped in and saved the day! I will never be able to thank them enough!!! Besides going above and beyond at every step, the food was amazing and I had many local guests ask me for the caterers name/info because they were all so impressed. Eduardo was the most amazing captain and took care of me all night. Wow, just wow. If I could give them 10 out of 5 stars, I would! THANK YOU!!!

Walter, Angela, and the whole team at WBC are beyond compare!! If you're looking for off-site catering in Santa Fe or the surrounding area, you have GOT to book with Walter Burke Catering!!!

Walter Burke catered our wedding reception and did a fantastic job. From the beginning, Angela with Walter Burke was exceptionally professional, responsive, and helpful. She even helped us adjust our menu last minute when we realized we had a guest with a severe food allergy. Walter Burke handled both food and decor at our reception and we were blown away by both. Several of our guests commented on how great the food was. We strongly recommend Walter Burke to anyone looking for a caterer in the Santa Fe/Albuquerque area.

FANTASTIC! Walter Burke Catering provided food for my all-company event in Santa Fe and it could not have been better. Angela was so thorough and helpful through the planning process, and the staff captain Jane on site was so friendly and mindful of my team's various allergies and dietary restrictions. The food was a huge hit- the blue corn enchiladas are a must! Smooth planning, great food, extra friendly staff- easy 5 stars!

WBC did an amazing job for our wedding! They are so efficient and experienced. One of those things you don't want to be worried about and I was not! We were so happy with the service and they easily accommodated for 2 vegetarian options. We used their rentals and those were great as well. We were on the budget friendly side and I don't have any complaints and think everything still looked great
I worked with Alexandra at Walter Burke Catering for my off premise wedding in October of 2022. I have been in the wedding industry for 10 plus years and have worked with some of the best in the business. Alexandra and her team not only met but surpassed my expectations. She was extremely helpful, responsive and wonderful to work with. The Walter Burke team not only served 140 guests in the middle of New Mexico out of a tent, but the food was presented beautifully and tasted amazing. Her staff was attentive and kind; we are still receiving rave reviews from our friends and family. I would highly recommend Walter Burke catering for your upcoming wedding or event.

We would give 10 stars if we could!!! We picked walter burke because of the very good pricing and excellent reviews, and we could not have gotten better service. They catered our 8/7 wedding, which was a destination wedding for us. Even though we did not meet in person beforehand, they were so helpful, even going so far as to help us figure out table arrangements as they had catered our venue before. Day of, they showed up on time, had 1 conversation with my husband, and we did not have to think about anything after that! They got everything ready and beautifully set up, plus all the servers were incredibly kind, and, of course, great food. Thank you walter burke for making our big day that much better!!

We booked Walter Burke catering for our 7-27 wedding at a home in Taos. It was an intimate dinner experience and we could not have been happier with our experience. From beginning to end, it was by far our best vendor selection. Angela was extremely responsive and put together an amazing menu knowing I came from catering background in Dallas. The staff that showed up day of to execute was perfection! Presentation and taste were everything! The EVOO lavender honeysuckle cake was the cherry on top to our perfect evening and experience with Walter Burke catering. Book them for your next event and you won’t regret it!

Walter Burke catered our wedding and it was hands down the best catered food I’ve ever had. They were so amazing to work with throughout the planning process, putting together a menu that reflected exactly what we envisioned for the wedding day. We also rented glassware, flatware, etc. from them and it was all beautiful and very easy to coordinate. The staff that worked our wedding was amazing, and the bartender always had a glass of prosecco waiting for my new husband and me :) We primarily worked with Alexandra and she was so kind and professional throughout the whole process. We felt very lucky to have Walter Burke cater our wedding and would highly recommend them to anyone we know!

Walter Burke recently catered our wedding and did an outstanding job. Alexandra is so wonderful to work with, she was incredibly helpful in helping us to manage the entire process, creating a specialized menu, and coordinating assistance with set up at the venue. Tia, our catering captain, was also incredible. She was prepared, organized and hands on in helping to ensure we had the best service. Tia went above and beyond helping us with venue set up, decorated our cake beautifully and was so kind. I felt so relieved after our final walkthrough after talking with Tia and had full confidence that she would take care of everything, and she did not disappoint! In addition to the food itself being great (including vegan options!) the service, staff and bartenders were amazing as well. We loved working with Walter Burke and couldn't have asked for a more positive and comfortable experience.
