Simply Elegant Catering did an excellent job hosting our Grand Opening BBQ. Their team was friendly, easy to work with, and handled everything from set‑up to clean‑up seamlessly. The food was great, the service was smooth, and the two‑tent layout created a comfortable space that everyone enjoyed. Our guests had a fantastic time, and we were very pleased with the overall experience. We will repeat for sure.

Our experience with Simply Elegant was truly exceptional. From start to finish, their team went above and beyond to support our not-for-profit agency, ensuring we stayed within budget without ever compromising on quality or service. Their willingness to accommodate our last-minute requests — including rearranging our cocktail-style tables on the spot — meant so much to us and demonstrated their incredible flexibility and professionalism.

The food was absolutely outstanding — fresh, beautifully prepared, and consistently delicious throughout the entire evening. We received countless compliments from our guests.

What stood out most was the genuine care and attentiveness of the site manager. He took the time to work closely with us, carefully managing the timeline to ensure everything was served exactly as we had envisioned. His dedication and calm support made a significant difference in the success of our event.

The entire Simply Elegant team was professional, responsive, and truly accommodating during both the planning process and the execution of our event. We are deeply grateful for their partnership and the heart they put into making our evening so special. Thank you for everything — we couldn’t have done it without you!

Raymond and his team from Simply Elegant was amazing to work with, professional, accommodating and truly a gem of the company. Here is the back story of what they pulled together. I was helping a Company plan a Christmas Lunch for 60 plus.. I was notified on the afternoon of Dec 19th to plan the Lunch for Christmas Eve. Let's just put it this way, it was a Christmas Miracle that Simply Elegant put it together. The Lunch went without a hitched, food was good and hot. The client will use Simply Elegant for future events.

We ordered the traditional Christmas buffet for our company holiday party, and it was a hit. The food was excellent, and the team at Simply Elegant was friendly and accommodating—especially with our many dietary requirements. All our staff happily went back for thirds and fourths, and I highly recommend the tofu vegetarian stir-fry from their regular menu. Many thanks!
