3 C’s Catering was on our venues preferred vendors list. When I looked them up I noticed that they had consistent reviews on multiple outlets from people raving about the quality of the food and the service. They were so right!! John, was incredibly accommodating and helpful throughout the process. Even when we had to keep making changes. Kyle, John’s son, was one of the people on the team for our big day and brought us our food and made sure to keep checking on us throughout the duration of our reception. Evelyn, their coordinator, did a lovely job with the buffet decor. The rest of the team for our reception were great too! You can tell that the team at 3 C’s truly cares about hospitality and the people they work with. Our family and friends complemented the food. I recommend hiring them for any special event you have!

Catering By Robert / Event Concepts . FL 
Rating: 5.0 (6 reviews)
  • Starts at $3,995
  • Serves Ruskin, FL

We are small, established, award-winning catering and event planning company which specializes in weddings held on the West Coast of Florida. Our focus is on only 1 - 2 weddings a week with an average of 100 guests. We prefer to do limit our weddings so we can spend more quality time focusing on our clients.

Susan and her team were amazing! I started working with Susan in 2018 planning my daughter’s wedding. Covid cancelled the 2020 wedding, so let’s fast forward to October 2023! Five years working with Susan and her team! What can I say about Susan, from the beginning she made me feel like part of her family and she will always be part of our family. That means a lot when you connect with your vendors. When I met Susan, we clicked, and I knew she was the one to cater and help me plan my daughter’s wedding. Susan was there for me to get through the Covid nightmare and finish planning the 2023 wedding. Which was beautiful and elegant. When Covid hit the March 2020, the wedding was cancelled just about 2 weeks before the wedding date. Susan was there to help guide me with all the vendors and rescheduling. Susan went above and beyond to make my daughter’s day so perfect. She was always there for me for whatever I needed or had any questions and all the way from the numerous emails/pictures I would send, to all the planning and food tastings, which we loved and enjoyed. The food tasting helped us pick the food for the wedding. I love how customizable and creative Susan provided to us. The Catering was the most important thing for us at my daughter’s wedding and they blew it out of the park. They did not forget any detail which was very important to me. Too setting up on the wedding day to her team having the appetizers and cocktails waiting for Alex and Isiah and the wedding party after the ceremony & they also had their food plated (we had a buffet style) for them at dinner which made it incredibly easy for them to eat before they mingled with the guests. I wanted to be with my daughter getting ready on her special day, and Susan and her team did everything! Setting up all the tables and chairs to setting up all the centerpieces. They even packed up everything, we did not have to do one thing, everything was very well organized. Picking Susan was one of the best decisions I made, she even recommended other vendors for us. I highly recommend Susan from Catering by Robert. You would not regret working with her and her team. I could go on and on but truly thank you for everything, Susan. You are the best in the business!

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.

Our wedding was planned in approximately 10 months and from the moment I sat down with Melissa at Dade City BBQ I knew it was the perfect choice for us. First, she was kind, always answered any and all questions we had, no matter how small they were. We met for a tasting (delish!) and fell in love with her even more. In addition, we tasted all the meats and sides for a BBQ buffet. We chose pulled pork, chicken quarters and added brisket. Our 3 sides were mac & cheese, collard greens and potato salad w/ cornbread. They were ALL delicious. Our guests raved about everything and especially the greens! We also opted for a grazing table for our guests. It was beautifully presented and absolutely beautiful and delicious. Our guests were in awe! She even made us our own plate because she knew we were busy talking with our guests.

I had about 80-85 people at my baby shower. I met chef from Zola even though she’s a wedding caterer. Hands down one of the nicest business owners. Her staff are young and energetic. We haven’t had any negative experiences with the company. She has now catered my mom’s birthday party and bridal shower. Her food and presentation is great. She’s Caribbean like my family and i and the flavors are there. She discounted a service for and even included a grazing table. The recent influx of negative reviews seems to come from people not correctly reading contracts or miscommunication. I love to support black businesses and know there could be mishaps but if you book this company you see immediately how sweet and professional the chef is and how great the food is
