Looking back I thought our wedding was perfect, until my friends started telling me these horror stories about the cater. Portland CC messed up on the amount of food they prepared for the event and then the waiter proceeded to tell my guests that the bride didnt order enough food. I spent thousands and thousands on food, they made my wedding cheap and embarassed me in front of family and friends. Where did these waiters learn ?? PCC Bartender gave away FULL bottles of wine to my guests throughout the event and as parting gifts. Many of my guests reported to me that we had the best bartender ever because they were given full bottles of wine to take home. This cost us close to a thousand dollars of wasted wine. Portland Catering Company does not do plates or dishware. I had to do all this myself, including renting, organizing, delivering, everything. IT WAS THE BIGGEST HEADACHE. I called PCC after we got back from the honeymoon to review these concerns. I NEVER GOT A PHONE CALL BACK OR ANY RESPONSE AT ALL. NOTHING. They never offered an explanation or apologize. I understand that things happen, but this is unacceptable. I would never use them again or recommend them for anyone who wants to have memorable food at their wedding. DONT WASTE YOUR TIME OR MONEY!!!!!!

Portland Catering Company did an awesome job. On short notice I decided to have a surprise birthday party for my wife. I had never had a party catered before. When I contacted PCC they started to help me pull a plan together. They went over food choices and styles. Within one or two phone calls we were able to nail down the food and presentation. And, they continued to work with me as my guest count fluctuated. They stayed within the budget that I was looking for and kept me informed all through the process. Chelsea at PCC was the planner that I worked with and she was both friendly and helpful in getting me up to speed on what would be needed for the event. I also had PCC supply all the flatware and dishes. What a time saver this was. When the party was done, we did a quick rinse and stack of everything. PCC worked with me the following week (this was a Saturday party) to pick up all the supplies that they had provided for the party. I would, and I will purchase their services again. I can recommend this company.

I hired Portland Catering Company to provide bar service for a company open house I was throwing - in hindsight I should have asked them to do the food as well. Right from the beginning Katie was outstanding and professional. When Katie and Chelsea showed up for the event, they were ON TIME and so helpful. The bar looked swanky and impressive, and their choices for wine and beer were perfect. The company I hired to bring in the food was horribly late and disastrously unprepared when the food actually was delivered. Katie and Chelsea from Portland Catering Company jumped in and helped me make the food look presentable for the guests that were beginning to arrive. And then throughout the evening they were stellar - not just excellent customer service, but a fantastic representation of my company (which was unexpected but wonderfully welcomed). I will be a repeat customer, and I will sing the praises of Portland Catering Company to anyone who cares to listen. Thank you for making the event so wonderful.

We used them to cater our company picnic at our office. We had two-hundred guests. From setup to cleanup they did a great job. They cooked the food onsite. The guests loved having the real barbeque atmosphere instead of precooked food you get at most events. The food was fresh, good quality, great tasting and had an appetizing presentation. The chefs and servers were professional, courteous and very helpful. Our guests were not all ready to eat when we had our designated serving time as they were busy visiting. They offered to let us keep use their serving containers, hot and cold coolers/warmers, utensils, plates, condiments for the rest of the weekend so the food would not go to waste. We appreciated them accommodating with all of our last minute changes we made our head count. We would definitely ask them to come help us with our next event!

The whole team at Portland Catering Co. knocked it out of the park for our wedding at the First Presbyterian Church Plaza. Chelsea and his team certainly took care of us; they were all so professional, personable, and completely got our event vision! They gave us exceptional service from our first call, to the planning meetings and “week of” walk throughs, all way down to our wedding day. They offer services that many local caterers do not, for example: they will serve your own provided alcohol. Their food is delicious, they are food geniuses, offering modern menus that satisfy the masses.

We met with a lot of catering companies as we planned our backyard wedding reception with about 65 guests. After meeting with our list of catering companies, it was a clear and easy decision to go with Portland Catering Company. They were responsive and flexible as they helped us plan and customize our menu, and they thought of all the small details all while keeping within our budget. With all the moving pieces for a wedding and back yard reception, catering was one thing that we just didnt have to worry about. Portland Catering Company just took care of it.

The team at Portland Catering Company is wonderful to work with. From the Event Planner to the owner, I always received prompt replies and service. The food is amazing. They have catered many of my business meetings with a delicious variety of food. Its always made fresh with final preparation done on-site for the freshest possible flavor and presentation. I highly recommend Portland Catering Company for any event, whether its just a meeting for 40 people or even a 200 guest wedding. They are the BEST!

My husband and I celebrated our 15th wedding anniversary, and hired Portland Catering Company for a reception. The food was outstanding and everything tasted great. In addition, they did an excellent job in setting up for the reception as serving the guests. We received numerous compliments on the food, and several our our guests asked us who the caterers were. I would highly recommend them for any reception.

We had our wedding last weekend and everything turned out great. Everyone loved the food, and Portland Catering Company ran everything so smoothly. Planning was easy and every time I called Chelsea was available to answer all of my questions. They even made last minute changes without any hesitation. I would definitely recommend this company to anyone looking for great food and great service!

What a wonderful group of folks who run this company. Not only were the servers kind and friendly, the food was fantastic. The crab cakes tasted like they were straight out of an east coast fish house, and the NY Strip was tender and perfectly cooked. Thank you Portland Catering Company for such high quality service, affordable too. I highly recommend this company for any kind of event.

This company caters my companys meetings with "hot meals." The portions per person are good, but the food is terribly bland, especially any dish with pasta. The beef and mash dishes are on par with airline of frozen meals. The lasagna is delicious. The box lunches are fairly good except for the side of pesto which is also fairly bland.
