Sample catered weddings

Alex and Trenton’s wedding was inspired by creating a unique culinary experience for their guests. The idea was to combine the elegance of a wedding with the authentic character of a live Argentine grill. Our goal was for every guest to enjoy not only the food but also the experience of the live fire cooking, the aroma of the grill, and a style of cuisine that is truly different from typical wedding catering in Florida.

    EXCELENT

    Excellent service! We hired them for our wedding and everything was perfect. The food was delicious and the service was a 10/10. Not only was the barbecue amazing, but the dessert table was incredible too. So many of our guests told us how much they loved the food! Definitely a 10/10!

    Fantastic!

    Since we live in Boston, we weren’t able to do a tasting before our wedding because we were out of state. At first, we were a little nervous, but from our very first conversation, Lore and Leo gave us so much confidence and peace of mind. They were always available to answer our questions and made us feel like everything was going to be perfect. We decided to book El Pampeano without ever tasting the food, and honestly, we couldn’t be happier with our decision. It’s amazing that we found such an incredible catering company from so far away. On our wedding day, everything exceeded our expectations. The Skirt Steak and the Flap Meat were absolutely outstanding, and our guests couldn’t stop talking about how delicious the food was. The mini choripán appetizers were a huge hit, and the churros and coffee station was the perfect way to end the evening. Beyond the amazing food, we want to recognize the entire team. Everyone was friendly, professional, and attentive throughout the event. The live grill setup looked beautiful and added such a unique touch to our wedding. Thank you, Lore and Leo, for being with us every step of the way from beginning to end. We truly hope we’ll have another celebration to share with you in the future!

Thank you for allowing us to be part of such an unforgettable day. We wish you both a lifetime of love and happiness. Congratulations!

    Perfect Catering for Our Wedding Day

    El Pampeano are true grill masters! My husband and I were looking for something different from traditional catering. We wanted live chefs cooking on-site, and we found exactly that. We had no idea an experience like this could be within our reach. I honestly have nothing negative to say. The entire team is united, charismatic, and professional. From the live grilling to the buffet and full service, they paid attention to every detail. They arrived, worked their magic, and left without a trace. Even the venue staff was impressed. My family loved them, and so did we. We would recommend them again and again!

    Fantastic

    I can’t express how happy I am that we chose El Pampeano Steakhouse for our wedding. The food was incredible, the presentation was beautiful, and the entire team was organized, professional, and attentive from start to finish. One moment I’ll never forget was when my father went looking for Lore personally just to thank her for everything. He told me he had rarely seen a catering team so well coordinated and dedicated. Seeing our guests enjoy the live fire grilling experience and hearing so many compliments throughout the night was truly special. We didn’t just receive great food, we received an unforgettable experience. Thank you for helping make our wedding day so memorable.

    Amazing!

    Honestly one of the best decisions for our wedding. The live grill setup looked amazing in person and the food was unreal. The flap meat and short ribs were absolute must-tries, seriously unforgettable. And the mini empanadas during cocktail hour… total addiction, people could not stop grabbing them. We also loved the vibe of the team. Everything felt relaxed but still super organized at the same time. Definitely recommend them if you want something different from typical wedding catering in Florida. Brenda & George
