Excellent experience. The food was superb, the staff excellent, we could not have been more pleased. Thank you Elaine and staff.

Everything was perfect!!! The food was delicious and many people commented on it. Kyle was great - just quietly kept food available and ready, set-up and clean -up excellent! He arrived right on time and had everything ready just as we discussed. Highly recommend Elaine's group. The Italian menu offering added an excellent variety for all food preferences! Thank you! Thank you!

Elaine is a long-time Lebanon resident and business woman. Very nice to deal with, and she made everything worry-free, making sure all arrangements were made and there were absolutely no loose ends. We had a great light lunch with snacks, fruit & vegetable trays, awesome sandwiches, desserts & drinks. Take home containers were provided for the leftovers, and all of this great food disappeared with the diners. Thanks for a seamless, enjoyable experience!

I honestly can’t give Elena’s a good enough review! They catered our wedding for 150 guests in May, and from start to finish, they were amazing to work with. Their staff was incredibly kind, professional, and attentive, making the whole experience smooth and stress-free.
And the food? Absolutely incredible! For appetizers, we had meatballs (pro tip: order way more than you think because they were gone so fast — everyone loved them!), fig and prosciutto crostinis.
For the main course, we served tri-tip, redfish, chicken marsala, penne pasta, German-style potatoes, Caesar salad, and cucumber and tomato salad. Our guests couldn’t stop raving about how delicious everything was!
If you’re looking for a caterer who delivers amazing food with fantastic service, Elena’s is hands down the best choice.

Improper food. All food was clearly precooked Great Value brand and heated up. Price was not consistent with quality.

We would not recommend Elaine's catering to anyone. We want to keep this factual and leave feelings out of it, but we wanted to write a review because we feel like this is important for people to know before anyone makes a decision on a caterer. We had booked Elaine a year in advance of our wedding and just 18 days before our wedding (of 120 people) she canceled on us and did not give us any solution or offer to help. She did give us a refund of our original deposit. She was extremely rude to us with little apologies when talking to her over the phone after she canceled on us.

We are grateful to Elaine's Catering for coming through at the last minute for our surprise party. The food was outstanding, artistically arranged, and bursting with flavor. Your team's dedication and personalized menu options were impressive. Thank you for making our celebration unforgettable.

Elaine and her team made some of the worst food I’ve ever had. Some of the food was overcooked to the point it was inedible. Stale bread, old meat, sour cheese, nothing seemed fresh. The salads were swimming in the most disgusting dressings I’ve ever had. Not a single thing these people made was good. Beyond that, they don’t respond well to any kind of criticism or even questions about allergies. They seem to just become defensive or argumentative. They complained about their other customers in front of us, and most of them (but not all) were generally unprofessional. I’m not sure why anyone puts up with these people, complete waste of money, terrible food from terrible people. What they make is like jail food.

We had arranged for a catered funeral meal of Turkey and roast beef. The food was good and the servers were professional. We had a major problem getting information about the total price until 2 days before the service. Elaine was always busy and promised to call back. I felt as if there was some deceit there, as our cost per person was almost doubled. We could afford the meals but in such a stressful time I feel that most people would need more guidance and be given more information about all of the prices. The web site price is incorrect.

There is not enough space in this post to say how wonderful about the services.
We approached Elaine last summer to do our wedding, which was still a year and a half away.
From the start, Elaine was professional, very personal with my wife and I, an offered us huge variety of food for our wedding to choose from.
Fast-forward to October 21 of this year, Elaine and her team provided nothing but the best in service, delicious, amazing, hot food, professionalism, even stepped up and helped with suggestions on where the food was to be set up at the venue.
I have personally dealt with many caterer over the years, and Elaine and her team is by far the best.
With pricing, you get exactly what you pay for, lots of food, and along with it, I shared above, just the absolute professionalism of her staff that serves the food.
My wife, June, and I want to thank Elaine and her team for making our event, so successful, so wonderful, and our guest had shared over and over again how wonderful the staff was, and the food was.
If you are looking for a caterer for all your needs at your next venue, or event, look no further than Elaine’s catering.
You will not be sorry, but instead you will be so happy all around.
Thank you Elaine to you and your team for everything you did to make our wedding day so wonderful. God bless you and yours.
Trash food. Sent my friend to the hospital. Wouldn’t eat if I was lost at sea with Tom Hanks.

Would not recommend. Food was not seasoned well. Breaded chicken was dry. Best foods at our party were made by us rather than catered. Automatic gratuity applied to total. This was not disclosed until the final conversation, the day before the party. Additionally, I had to call to confirm all details. As someone who formerly owned my own business, I would always call to confirm with clients (not the other way around). No follow-up call to inquire how food and services were. Pass on this one.

Elaine was very pleasant and made my decision to hire her as my caterer very easy. I noticed her and her staff at another wedding and was very pleased and their professionalism. And knew I had to talk to the owner to interview her for my wedding

After paying over $3200/50 people for catering for a post funeral luncheon, our family was very underwhelmed by Elaine‘s catering. Most of the food was store bought. The chicken noodle soup had no chicken in it, the food was flavorless, very bland. We were quoted $12 on table cloths that were purchased by us for under $1. Overall we feel we were cheated by this company. If you do use Elaine‘s catering get an itemized list before you pay her. I would also recommend you get samples of the food before you order it.
