We first discovered El Pampeano Steakhouse through a wedding decorator and were blown away by their catering for our wedding in November 2024. Seeing them now on Zola reminded us of the wonderful experience we had, and we wanted to leave our review. Everything was flawless: the food was delicious, the service attentive and professional, and Leo, the grill master, and his wife Lore were always on top of every detail. They truly made our wedding even more special and memorable. We highly recommend El Pampeano Steakhouse to any couple looking for catering that combines amazing flavor, attentive service, and genuine dedication.

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.

We chose Embelished on a recommendation of someone who had used them, and other reviews. We had no idea how great they would be. I had been in the catering business in the Midwest for over 25 years, and Embelished exceeded our expectations in every way. Phone conversation were great, and follow ups returned promptly. While my daughter and fiancé were the only ones at the tasting, they came back thrilled. Wedding day, the team showed up right on time, set up outdoor chairs and began doing place settings. They worked with serving walk around plates of hors d’oeuvres, plus a charcuterie board during family photos. The meal of beef tenderloin and lemon chicken were fantastic. They supplied EVERYTHING WE NEEDED. The staff was friendly, helpful and left the kitchen used cleaner than when they arrived. I highly recommend Embelished.

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 would highly recommend this caterer! VERY FAIR prices, large portions and happy guests. I am 100% pleased. Thank you Melissa and your amazing staff!!
