I had a wonderful experience with CVC. They certainly delivered what was presented at the tasting table to my November 2025 wedding. No hidden surprises, no horror stories, just delicious food and amazing service. If you would like to be worry free about the food tasting just right on your special day, city view catering is the way to go. I also recommend doing their chicken and waffle for your late night snack. 10/10 would use them again for any of my future catering services.
We were absolutely blown away by our wedding caterer! From start to finish, everything was seamless, the tasting, the planning, the coordination, all of it. Rachel was truly amazing to work with. She was so flexible, thoughtful, and incredibly organized, which made the entire process feel effortless on our end.
On the wedding day, her team was just as impressive: professional, polished, and on top of every detail. Everyone is still raving about how amazing the food was! It was unlike any wedding food we’ve ever had before, so flavorful, beautifully presented, and genuinely memorable!
City View Catering exceeded every expectation! The food was absolutely delicious—fresh, beautifully presented, and full of flavor. Our guests are still talking about the meal! The service was just as impressive: professional, organized, and incredibly attentive from start to finish.
The team made the entire experience effortless. They were responsive, flexible with our requests, and went out of their way to make sure everything was perfect. You can truly tell they care about quality and customer satisfaction.
If you want exceptional food paired with exceptional service, City View Catering is the one to choose. I couldn’t recommend them more!
Just wow. I loved working along side City View Catering at Addison Woods. Their team was incredible, professional, kind, and so fun to work with. Every single thing they served looked amazing and tasted even better. You could tell they genuinely cared about the couple and their guests having the best experience possible.
As a photographer, I see a lot of behind-the-scenes moments, and the City View team handled everything with so much grace and joy. The food, the service, the timing, it was all spot on. Truly one of my favorite catering teams to work alongside!

We planned our wedding months after being engaged, which added a lot more stress. When we met Rachel at Cityview, we immediately were put at ease that we wouldn’t need to worry about our catering.
Rachel was fun, engaged, and very organized. She made our tastings a highlight of wedding planning and guided us to create the perfect menu. Best of all, we got to take a LOT of food home to enjoy for the week after our tasting.
Anderson stood out as a star for us with great energy, and an eye for service. Sarah coordinated our event and made the day perfect.
The team also ran our bar service and ensured we never had a line, the guests were served whatever drink they desired, and we received rave reviews about the quality of our service. At end of the night, they had meals and came ready to take away with us.
Our friends and family said this was one of the top weddings they’ve been to and it couldn’t have happened without the Cityview team.
Thank you all for making this such a great day!
We used City View Catering for our wedding at The Peach Orchard and they absolutely blew us away! Our guests are still talking about how delicious the food was at our wedding—many said it was the best wedding meal they’ve had. The presentation was beautiful, but the taste was even better!
Rachel was an absolute dream to work with. I have a food allergy and she went above and beyond during tastings and planning to ensure I felt safe and comfortable. Her attention to detail and care made the whole experience seamless.
If you want top-notch food and service that your guests will rave about, look no further!
Wow. Wow. And wow. If I could write an essay on how much I enjoyed working with CityView Catering for my wedding at Boxwood Manor, it would take me years! Rachel and her staff were truly some of the best people to work with.
When I began looking for a caterer, I was a little nervous—wedding food can often be just average—but not CityView. If they had a restaurant, I’d be there weekly. From the very beginning, they were quick to respond and easy to communicate with. I was able to schedule my first tasting right away, and yes—first—because it was completely free! We sampled what felt like two pounds of food, and Rachel walked us through every dish, explaining ingredients and taking our feedback. I’m not a fan of blue cheese, so I let her know ahead of time, and she swapped it for feta without hesitation.
After that first tasting, I booked them immediately—and then got to enjoy a second free tasting to finalize our menu.
On our wedding day, CityView went above and beyond. My husband and I got to choose whatever we wanted for our own meals (it didn’t have to be from the guest menu—so fun!), and every guest I spoke to raved that it was the best wedding food they’ve ever had. The salads were beautifully plated, the charcuterie board during cocktail hour was stunning, and every bite was delicious.
They also handled everything seamlessly—staffing, cake cutting, plates and utensils, real glassware for drinks, and they even picked up every plate. Rachel personally brought our meals to us and checked in throughout the evening, which was such a thoughtful touch.
If you’re considering CityView for your wedding or event, don’t hesitate. They are classy, kind, and incredibly accommodating. Truly one of the best decisions we made for our day!
Rachel and the whole team at City View Catering were a dream to work with. They were professional, attentive, and accommodating throughout the entire process. The food they provided was absolutely delicious, with an elegant presentation that wowed our guests. They were able to make culturally sensitive modifications to the menu, and we received rave reviews from our guests about the quality of the catering. City View Catering provided exceptional value and I will truly miss working with them now that my wedding is over. Their communication was prompt and efficient, and Rachel is a gem of a human being. I highly recommend City View Catering for any couple looking for top-notch wedding catering at a fraction of the cost of other high-quality providers.
We used City View Catering for our wedding at The Peach Orchard, and they were absolutely top tier! From start to finish, every interaction we had with their team was wonderful. My husband and I went to two tastings, and we loved the people we met with just as much as the food itself. We worked with Demetra, Rachel, and Liz throughout our engagement and leading up to the wedding, and each of them was fantastic — professional, kind, and truly invested in making our day perfect.
They were always quick to respond to emails and phone calls, answered all of our questions, and provided great suggestions when we were stumped on certain details. Their attention to detail and communication made the entire planning process so easy.
And the food — incredible! All of our guests raved about how delicious everything was. We received so many compliments, and it was clear that the quality and presentation exceeded expectations.
There’s a reason City View Catering is listed as a preferred vendor with so many Houston-area wedding venues (and even beyond) — it shows in everything they do. You will not be disappointed when working with them!
Had a recent tasting which was not a very elevated experience to say the least. We were seated in the back kitchen which was cluttered and felt disorganized. Communication was initially consistent with Victoria, but it seemed like once we actually had the tasting all communication ceased. I have my suspicions as to why she may have done this considering she asked us some strangely invasive questions that seemed to attempt to pry into our financial situation. In my personal opinion, stick with Cafe Natalie, luxury experience and excellent communication. They are pricier than CVC but well worth it.

We loved using City View for our wedding. We got them through a vendor package and could not have been happier! The food turned out amazing and everyone loved it. Our tasting experience was amazing and we were sent home with so many leftovers! They were also very accommodating for guests that have severe food allergies and created entire separate meals for them. Truly an amazing experience with delicious food!! Our favorites were the tortellini, lemon roasted potatoes, green beans, fried asparagus (appetizer), chicken mango skewers (appetizer), and the chicken parmesan.
As the title says, City View provides great service from the beginning of the wedding planning process to the end! They allow 2 complimentary tastings - one early on to ensure you love their food, and the second being an opportunity to try the food again and finalize your menu. Additionally, they do not skimp on the food during these tastings either! You and whoever you bring with you will be going home with plenty of leftovers. I do not know of many catering companies that do this, which is one of the reasons why having City View cater your wedding is so worth it!
You definitely get great value for your money with the food served on the day of as well - a charcuterie display or passed appetizers, salad, bread, as well as the main entrees and cake cutting services. Not to mention how beautiful their presentation is! Many of our guests loved the flower garnishes. And I saw lots of clean plates. So ultimately, I was very happy with the menu they helped my husband and me create as well as the fact that they prepare whatever meals the bride and groom want for themselves regardless of what is offered to the guests. We couldn't have asked for more!
We only had to do one tasting to know we wanted CVC to be our caterer.
Amazing staff, and even more amazing food. Heard from multiple guests that it was some of the best food they had ever had at a wedding.
Sharon and Rachel are both sweethearts who take pride in their business and their work. Worth every penny.
We had the pleasure of working alongside City View Catering for Takeya & Josh’s wedding, and the experience was seamless from start to finish. As the team behind Deepicka Mehta Photography, we get to see how guests respond to the food and it was clear that City View knocked it out of the park! The presentation was elegant, the timing was perfect, and the entire catering staff was professional and courteous. Their attention to detail truly elevated the celebration. Excited for the next event together!
We were thrilled to have City View cater our wedding. Rachel promptly answered every question we had and was incredibly helpful throughout the planning process. We felt so confident in her as a vendor- it's clear she knows what she is doing! The 2 tastings were fantastic and the copious leftovers they sent us home with were just as delicious the next day. We received many compliments on the food from our guests- from the fun presentation of the tower salads to the chicken wellington- everything was great! Highly recommend Rachel and the City View team!
