    From the moment we first reached out to Tailgate Gourmet Catering, their communication was incredibly informative, welcoming, and detailed. John and Julie were a pleasure to work with, and the complimentary tasting we had was above and beyond our expectations. It was such a personable and enjoyable experience. On the day of our testing their service was truly engaging and memorable. The food was fantastic and all of our friends loved it. We are looking forward to working with them for our wedding.

    We went for a wedding tasting today and were blown away with how amazing, kind and helpful, John and Julie were! John made us more items than we had requested and told his story behind each dish and the seasoning/cooking method. The food was absolutely amazing and I wish we could have everything on the menu at our wedding. Julie gave us the ins and outs of the timeline, options, steps by step what will happen on the wedding day, and really made us feel special. They both answered all of our questions and were very open to new ideas and modifying dishes to better fit us/our guests dietary needs. We are SO excited to have Tailgate Gourmet Catering cater our wedding in July! We HIGHLY recommend!!

  • Outstanding service!

    We had our DIY wedding over the 4th of July weekend, 2025, and we thought what could be better than some good old fashion cook out food? Man, did John & his team at Tailgate Gourmet deliver! We got to do our tasting in the Fall of 2024 in John’s kitchen, and we were hooked. Their food was delicious, and John and Julie were so fun and personable. When they arrived the day of the wedding, they set up quickly and got right down to doling out tasty appetizers. The whole team was just excellent. Highly recommend their berry cobbler for a dessert! If you’re looking for great food, great service, and a reasonable cost, look no further than Tailgate Gourmet!

    We trusted Tailgate Gourmet to cater our wedding in May, and John and his team knocked it out of the park! The food was so good we got compliments on it all night long (and for weeks afterwards)! Cooking the food live on-site made worlds of difference. They were a joy to work with, with a very easy process to design and select a menu and were very flexible with covering all dietary restrictions. The service for passed apps and the served buffet were awesome. We highly recommend tailgate gourmet for any catering need!
