Catering by Robert is an absolute must have caterer for your event. When my husband and I began planning our wedding in 2023, we were overwhelmed by the endless choices. Shortly into our search we connected with Susan at Catering by Robert and immediately felt a connection. During the initial tasting at their design studio, Susan was very informative, inviting and shared in our excitement. It felt like we were talking to family. From that moment on we knew our search was complete. Throughout the planning process, Susan and her team offered more than your standard catering package. Multiple group tastings, consistent communications and a design meeting to plan our linens, table arrangements and displays, all which the team sets up day of. Catering by Robert assisted with day of coordination far beyond the food and drinis. Our coordinator, Maryn, was there to help every step of the way helping with ceremony processions, ensuring our wedding party had drinks and snacks before cocktail hour and much more. The food we chose was absolutely incredible. We had endless compliments from friends and family on how wonderful everything tasted. Even better for us, they packaged up all of the leftover food for us to take home and enjoy. We could not be happier with everything Susan, Maryn and the entire Catering by Robert team helped us with and it was a pleasure getting work alongside them to ensure our day went as smooth as possible and executed even better than we imagined. Would highly recommend for any event!

I must say that Susan and her staff made our wedding absolutely fabulous. The table decorations were beautiful, the food was amazing and the service was outstanding. I will definitely use catering by Robert again and again.

Thank you Susan, you are the best at what you do.

We just used Catering by Robert for our wedding catering on 12/07/24 and we couldn't have imagined having anyone else for our wedding. The food was great, their staff was amazing, and the attention to detail was unmatched.
When you sign a contract with Catering by Robert, you become part of their family while you're planning a wedding. Susan, who runs the operation, makes you feel like you're the only wedding they're planning.
You'll be invited to bi-monthly tastings from signing until your wedding. We had no doubt that the menu we were choosing was reflective of exactly what we wanted.
You'll also attend a design meeting with their team to ensure that the tables you're presenting match your vision.
....and when you change your mind or have any questions, Susan is only a phone call away.
They also double as your on-site coordinator for the day, which was a huge help and weight off of our shoulders.
For any large events moving forward, Catering by Robert will consistently be our first choice!

Food is one of the most important elements of a wedding, and our food was excellent. Catering by Robert’s service and food were excellent and all of our guests kept going back for more! We went with their buffet option and I’m so glad we did! No one left hungry! Susan was beyond amazing, making sure there were food and drinks brought to the bridal suite after the ceremony. They served us first but because we were making rounds to say hello to all of our guests, our food went cold and they immediately brought us out another plate. There was SO MUCH FOOD. Some fan favorites were the mojo pork, sweet and sour chicken, the mashed potatoes, and pasta. Susan also provided the charger plates and other decor items at no additional cost which was AMAZING. Thank you so much for everything!

Susan and the rest of the team at Catering by Robert are fantastic! Susan was with us every step of the way in the designing of the reception, and provided great input and recommendations. Everything turned out beautiful, and the food was delicious! We did a served buffet with the chicken marsala, Parma Rosa pasta, honey baked ham....and the star of the show, a giant dish of paella! At the end of the night, they packed up all our decorations and leftover food and put them in a spot close to the venue entrance, so all we had to do was put it in the car. Thank you all so much, everything was perfect!

I have nothing but positive things to say about Susan and her team! They made my wedding dreams come true and allowed me to relax on such a stressful day. Susan is so flexible, patient, and open to all new ideas. I am of Latino descent and she ensured we had the food that we all love! I hired her in extremely short notice, yet she managed to pull everything together perfectly. All my guests had marvelous things to say about the food and the staff. Me and my wife had staff taking care of us all night long and always making sure we were fed and had drinks. I recommend them blindly to any of you. They are worth every single penny.

Susan, the owner, and her team were amazing from day one. The food was phenomenal, the service exceptional, and Susan herself helped me so much along the way. We had a buffet style dinner with a chicken option, pasta, salad, rolls, sides and a carving station. Well worth the money, and very reasonably priced. My guests raved about how tasty the food was. Thank you Susan and Catering by Robert!

When my fiance and I began our journey as an engaged couple, we realized we didn't know a thing about planning a wedding. We live in Sweden and wanted to have our ceremony in my hometown of Clearwater, Florida- which was a lot of planning to do from across the pond. Susan at Catering By Robert not only went above and beyond to understand exactly what we wanted to do, but worked tirelessly to ensure that we would get our perfect day within the budget that we wanted.

That's not even including the food, decoration, and coordination- all of which were absolutely stellar. I'm genuinely not sure what we would have done without them- and my (now) husband and I both agree that our wedding may well have been the best day of our lives. Everything was perfect.

We are also continuously hearing after the fact how well-coordinated everything was, in addition to how amazing the food turned out to be. If you're a couple looking for the all-in-one complete package for your wedding, we cannot recommend Catering By Robert enough. They are truly next level for the value that you get.
