Eatible Delights Catering Major Events

My experience working with Eatible Delights was outstanding! Everything from planning the menu to on site service was top notch. The guests raved about the food all night. I highly recommend them and will definitely work with them in the future.

Eatible Delights catered the first West Chester University Philadelphia Campus Master of Social Work Graduation. The food was fabulous! The staff all arrived on time. One of the servers was early and helped us out with some tasks! Thank you so much!!! You were a pleasure to work with! We will keep Eatible Delights in mind for future events we host in Philly!

David and Eatible Delights never disappoints! We know David from our time in Philadelphia and recently relocated to the DC area. We hired Eatible Delights to cater my husband‘s 50th birthday celebration after learning (to my pleasant surprise) that they serve clients in DC as well. Our guests were mesmerized by the mouth-watering cuisine, most notably the lamb chops, salmon and made-to-order pasta. David made the entire process so easy, from guiding our menu selections, keeping us appraised of every detail leading up to the event, and operating with an "anything is possible" mindset. Eatible Delights was the perfect complement to a perfect evening!
