Simply Gourmet catered my wedding 10 years ago. I still have family and friends raving about how good the food was.

Chef Larry, Jamie and their team are the epitome of professional. They deliver to the finest detail. I have worked with them on more than one occasion, every time I am blown away. They are my go to caterer.

I have my destination wedding at Sarasota end of 2021 and our special day wouldn’t be so perfect without Becky and the Simply Gourmet team! Becky has been extremely responsive and reliable throughout my planning process, which is one of the key reasons I picked Simply Gourmet among multiple caterers because I know communication is so important especially that I had not been to the venue. Indeed on the day I’m surprised by the high quality of food and service they provided. All the appetizers, salad, entrees, deserts and drinks are delicious! People are still taking about how good the food is - I love the appetizers, the salad and the signature drinks, and many also told me that the steak was perfectly cooked and the mashed potato was the best they had ever had. Their service was outstanding! We got some issues from other vendors and Becky and the team have been there all the time to help get everything handled so well, and there were staff following us to make sure we have food while we were taking photos. I have very high bar but Simply Gourmet definitely exceeds my expectations. Everybody had such a great time.I would highly recommend Sinply Gourmet! Thank you so much Becky and the team!

We were so happy with how everything turned out. Jamie and her staff exceeded our expectations. The food all came out perfectly done and the shrimp grits and the flank steak were big hits. The catering staff were really nice and lovely to work with. Thank you for all your help with the back and forth communication about linens, logistics, coordinating with our florist, etc.

We first used Simply Gourmet 21+ years ago for our daughter's wedding at the Crosley Mansion. Everything okay about their work was above and beyond even our high expectations. Since then they have catered several functions. From first to last they have been a delight to work with.

5 Stars is not nearly enough to reflect the superiority of the food and service for a 100 guest housewarming party, followed by a 50 person brunch. Are there enough stars in the sky? Jamie is a master at assembling all of the major components, the crucial details and the elusive nuances to create an ambiance to dazzle all your guests. Stephanie and her team added their skills and warm personalities to complete the masterpiece. Our guests from 3 different countries and 8 different USA states all raved about every aspect of of the total experience. Having hosted catered events in 4 different countries and 5 world class USA cities, we can state with confidence that this was our ultimate catered event. Hats off to Jamie and the entire Simply Gourmet team!!Joe and Sally Fernandez
