My good friend and I had a fabulous meeting with Jade at the NW location yesterday - enquiring about an event at a later date.... While Jade was unaware she had been booked for this appointment - [it had been booked on line with Chloe - and obviously forgot to advise Jade - ]amidst her very busy schedule at the location yesterday with a Wedding..... she was not at all surprised, nor ruffled one bit... she was gracious - extremely knowledgeable, helpful and very empathetic re the situation. She knows what works best, food, drinks, decorations etc...... THANK YOU JADE FOR YOUR WONDERFUL HOSPITALITY YESTERDAY...YOU ARE A STAR, AND A WONDERFUL ASSET TO THE COMPANY....... 5IVE STARS PLUS.

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.

We recently hosted an in-home event for about 20 guests, and Simply Elegant did a fantastic job. They arrived on time, the setup was seamless, and the food was absolutely delicious. Pickup afterward was quick and easy, making the whole experience stress-free. I would definitely recommend Simply Elegant for anyone looking for great catering and excellent service!

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!
