We chose to have food by DeLeo cater our wedding and it was the best choice we made! The food was absolutely incredible, they were great to work with, very responsive and accommodating to what we wanted for our special day. We had many options to choose from and we also had a walking cannoli bar after dinner come out, he came out in the dance floor and everyone was so excited and thrilled! He made everyone excited and matched the energy of all our guests! The entire team made not only us but all of our guests feel special.
Our family and friends raved about the food and were asking us where we got the food from. I highly suggest and will always suggest them for ANY event!
The best caterer in Rochester!
FoodbyDeLeo was amazing! Everything went flawlessly for our event. The food is what everyone is still talking about, all cooked from scratch right in our kitchen. The house smelled incredible, the guests were wowed, and the team couldn’t have been more attentive or friendly. Highly recommend to anyone looking for fresh, high-quality unique bites that will totally impress your crowd!
Food by Deleo was easily the best decision we made for our wedding! We got married at Arbor Loft and the one thing guests keep telling me is how amazing the food was! The best wedding food they ever had and I AGREE. Truly nothing compares. I will keep praying that they open up a physical location so I can have the food again. Thank you so so much for everything!
DeLeo’s catered at a wedding barn that we assist at. I was very impressed with their entire process. They arrived on time, brought an extremely professional set up that was efficient and basically - a chef’s kitchen on the road. The team on their staff were extremely experienced and polished. And the best part? Was their food. The appetizers were like little masterpieces of art. Personally, the hot chicken sliders were our absolute favorite. Julia, on their team is a sweetheart and the entire evening was flawless. We would highly recommend choosing DeLeo’s if looking for a caterer! Thank you for making our day working together so easy.
My husband and I hired Food by DeLeo to cater our wedding in early August 2025, and we couldn't be happier with the result. Their operation truly puts customer service first. Our guests raved about the menu, came back for seconds and had a lovely time. We can't thank them enough for the wonderful service, food, and professionalism throughout the whole process. THANK
YOU!!!
We used DeLeos for our wedding catering and bar. They were absolutely wonderful from start to finish. Julia was incredibly helpful, down to earth and easy to communicate with throughout the planning process. We did our tastings with Tony and the food was absolutely outstanding, they helped us narrow down our choices because it was really difficult with everything looking and tasting so great! Finally when it came to wedding day they were just amazing. Their team hustled throughout the day making sure every detail was in place. The drinks, super impressive and massive charcuterie display, perfectly prepared passed apps (mini beef wellingtons and shrimp gambas ajillo… so fire!) all made our cocktail hour so delicious and refined! When it came to our plated meal everything was timed absolutely perfectly, the salads were so fresh, amazing pasta and entrees were hot and so delicious! All of our guests raved about the food! But truly more meaningful than how great the food was is how great the service was. Their entire team was so kind, hardworking, enthusiastic and clearly there for the purpose of making sure we had the best day ever! I cannot imagine anyone that could have done this better. The family roots of DeLeos really grow branches through everything that they do!
Food by DeLeo catered my wedding. They did a full pig roast on site, chivettas chicken, and the best thing you’ll ever eat- their home made pasta tossed in a Parmesan wheel. Don’t sleep on this! The staff was BEYOND amazing. They put out apps for us that we purchased from Wegmans (not because deleo didn’t offer apps, just because we wanted specific things), they served the toast for us, they also did the wedding cake! The ONLY tiny negative thing (which wasn’t even really a negative) was that when I booked it, the owner said he would come do the event himself. I was slightly disappointed that he didn’t come, but his chefs and servers were absolutely phenomenal which is why I’m still giving 5 stars.
Where do I begin.... Food By DeLeo was amazing, My Husband and I fell I love the minute as we walked into the place!! The warm welcomes and the food felt like we were at the dinner table at our own home eating Nana's cooking! The staff did an amazing job at our wedding and we are so glad we chose Food By DeLeo for our caterers! We really wish they had a local restaurant around town!! We most definitely will be using them for our future events! THANK YOU FOOD BY DELEO!
The Deleo staff were very professional and attentive to all of our needs. The food was delicious and exceeded our expectations. I would highly recommend them for any function that you may need.
We recently worked with Food by DeLeo for a private tailgate Corporate event, and we couldn't have been more impressed. From start to finish, the entire experience was flawless. The team at DeLeo went above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect for our gathering!
The food was absolutely delicious—each dish was prepared with care, and the flavors were spot-on! Our guests couldn’t stop raving about the variety, quality, and presentation
The service was just as exceptional. The team was very friendly, professional, and attentive, making sure that everyone was taken care of throughout the event
A huge thank you to Julia and team for making our tailgate so memorable. We’ll definitely be booking them again for future events!

My son had them cater his wedding. People were raving about how good it was. Best wedding buffet I've ever had!!
I may be biased by the fact that it was my wedding but the food was the best I've ever had at a wedding. The owner is a personable and easy to get in touch with. And again the food was to die for, I still day dream about the steak. I had about 150 people at the wedding and I'd say about 100ish of them personally told me or my wife how good the food was. Trust me hire them for your wedding or event and you will be satisfied.
No experience with the catering service, but visited their stand at the public market and was absolutely flabbergasted with how delicious their crust/dough tasted. Possibly the best crust i have ever had, plus crispy on the bottom. 10/10
Absolutely out of this world food, communication, professionalism, and service. I filled out the "contact us" at 430 on a Friday and had a response before 5. Our wedding guests raved all night about the food and we are still getting compliments days later. The range of food types was incredible as there were multiple allergies to worry about, plus FBD taking diabetic and heart health conscious guests needs in mind. I'm currently drooling thinking about what we ate.Test tasting their food was also wonderful. Even going on a not empty stomach, we cleared our plates. The whole experience was quaint and efficiently run.Their folks not only set up quickly and smoothly, but serviced our tables, assembled in house so everything was fresh, and everyone was personable beyond belief. Thank you all SO much for being part of why our wedding was such an outstanding success ??
