Awarded Best of Zola
I have had the pleasure of using 3 C's Catering several times, for small events at my home, catered lunches all the way up to my daughter's wedding and my mother's celebration of life. And I have attended many events where 3 C's Catering was providing the food services. Everything is always perfect. The food is amazing! No matter what it is, from simple sandwiches, to top round of beef, everything is prepared deliciously. It's always fresh, hot and yummy! REAL mashed potatoes, tender meats, fresh everything. And the staff. so delightful. I attend a monthly lunch meeting, where they rotate the catering staff. 3 C's staff are the only ones who walk around the ballroom and collect plates from the attendees, and ensure that nothing else is needed. The other catering companies don't bother to pick up dishes or clear tables, they leave it for the guests to do. I will continue to use them any time I have an event, and will always recommend them to anyone having a function. When we had my mother's celebration of life for 100 people, and I saw the 3 C's staff walk in, I knew I didn't have to worry about anything to do with the food service. It was a relief knowing that they were there, and that I could have confidence that everything around the food would be perfect.

Welcome! Our focus when dining with Ez Eats is to deliver an unforgettable food experience. Everyone who dines with us is considered a guest, not a client. We bring the fun, a vibe, and most importantly, amazingly delicious food!

From our first conversation with Eli at Ez Eats, we knew we had found our caterer. He was clear about what he could do, responded quickly to our questions, and stayed friendly throughout the whole process. What really impressed us was how he worked with our budget to create a meal that felt special without breaking the bank—something we were honestly surprised by. The food itself was incredible, from the plated rehearsal lunch with options for everyone to the buffet spread on our wedding day, and he even stepped away from the dinner and brought us (bride and groom) appetizers during photos so we didn't miss out. Our guests couldn't stop talking about how delicious everything was, and our photographer told us it was the best wedding food she'd ever had. Eli's talent, kindness, and willingness to accommodate our needs made our day feel seamless and special. We can't recommend Ez Eats highly enough.

The Charcuterie Cartel was created from my love of food, creativity, and the joy of bringing people together. To me, a charcuterie board is more than food, it’s an experience. Each board is thoughtfully curated with high-quality ingredients and designed with artistry to create a balance of flavor, color, and style. My passion comes from seeing how food connects people, whether at a family table, a celebration, or a luxury event. Through The Charcuterie Cartel, I share joy, beauty, and unforgettable moments, one board at a time.

"I hired The Charcuterie Cartel for a birthday celebration, and it was hands down the best service experience I’ve ever had. The Chief Grazing Officer is in a league of her own. Planning an event can be incredibly stressful, but she was more than just professional—she was a true partner. She was deeply empathetic and understood my event’s needs to perfection, providing catering solutions that took a huge weight off my shoulders. As for the food: the final product was spectacular. The presentation was a literal work of art and became the main conversation piece of the entire party. If you want a stress-free process and a 'wow' factor that your guests won't forget, this is it. 10/10 recommendation!"

At The Grazing Pony, family has always been the heart of everything we do, including the inspiration behind our name. Aspen, our founder’s beloved horse, represents the warmth, charm, and sense of community that we strive to bring to every event. In June of 2024, our founder made the bold decision to leave a successful marketing career to be more present at home, yet still wanted to channel her passion, creativity, and event planning expertise into something meaningful. This business is the perfect blend of both worlds, allowing her to be a stay-at-home mom while continuing to create memorable experiences for others.

The Grazing Pony made my shower so special with their bottomless cannoli! We loved that they were able to take our favorite desserts and turn them into creative cannoli flavors. It was such a unique twist and way more memorable than just setting out cupcakes. My guests are still talking about it, and it was the perfect sweet touch to the day!
