    Five Star Food for your wedding

    Our experience with Fresh From The Kitchen was absolutely fantastic! From the initial consultation to the big day, they provided exceptional service and truly delicious food. The tasting we did prior to the wedding was so great we had trouble deciding on which appetizers and entrees to choose, because everything was so good. Come wedding day our guests couldn't stop complimenting the flavors and presentation. Noelle’s staff was amazing. The attention to detail and professionalism exhibited by her team made our wedding day stress-free and memorable. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for top-notch catering services. Thank you for making our special day even more amazing!

    Great food and great rentals

    The food was basic but delicious. A menu was listed at the beginning of the buffet Line but I do wish each Item was labeled individually. My seating chart was incorrect because the caterer told me there would be 10 tops but we had 8 tops. Great communication. Good quality.

    Noelle did a great job!

    All of our guests couldn’t stop raving about the amazing food at our reception. Noelle and her staff were incredibly friendly and professional. We highly recommend Noelle and have referred other friends her way for their special occasions. Thank you, Noelle!

    100% Recommend!

    We highly recommend Fresh from the Kitchen for the best wedding caterer you could ever want. Noelle and her team were absolutely sublime and we had an excellent experience working with them from start to finish. Noelle was the gold standard in wedding vendors - incredibly responsive and so hard working. We had no questions that went unanswered and no anxieties on our day. Noelle and her team handled everything so beautifully. The food was also absolutely delicious and we received so many compliments. We truly cannot say enough good things about our experience with Fresh from the Kitchen and HIGHLY recommend this vendor.

    Exceeded expectations!!

    Fresh From the Kitchen Catering was AMAZING for our recent wedding!

    We booked FFTK about a year in advance for our wedding, and throughout the months leading up to our wedding, Noelle and her team were always available and prompt in responding to any questions that we had. Our wedding was a destination location in Cottonwood, AZ, and FFTK made the trip and was well prepared, prompt with timing, and helped make our wedding night perfect!

    FFTK had a very cute and romantic dining setup for the tastings at their Phoenix location, and we ended up having a fun date night together while sampling our food selections for our wedding. Our server that evening was so polite, fun to talk with, and VERY knowledgeable of the food preparation/ingredients and the catering services. We truly enjoyed our tasting and recommend going to their location to do a sampling!

    Noelle helped prepare an amazing meal and experience for everyone the night of our wedding. We had bar service, appetizers during cocktail hour, and plated salads and entrees for our reception. Our plated dinner for 85 guests was PERFECT! The entire FFTK staff was so friendly, prompt, and polite. You could tell they truly were enjoying themselves. The food and service was phenomenal! It was fresh, well prepared, served to our guests perfectly, and everyone was so complimentary of how good everything was! The presentation was also beautiful.

    Noelle and her team at FFTK are THE BEST! Look no further than FFTK when searching for your catering needs!

    Amazing service

    From the very start of our communication with FFTK Catering we knew they were the special. From Pat to Noelle they responded professionally and quickly. All throughout the planning process to last minute venue changes, Noelle was there for us!! At the wedding the setup and food was amazing! While Noelle was not able to be there her staff was exceptional! Our guests have not stopped talking about how amazing and delicious the food was! From the appetizers to the main courses to the desserts and their presentation were perfect! We sent Noelle a photo of the wedding cake we wanted from the Martha Stewart website. Noelle and her staff took the photo and hit a grand slam! It was even better than we could have imagined and the taste of the cake was equal to or even better than the cake looked! Taste and presentation were perfect!!

    Worthy of Reputation

    The service was flawless, the menu delicious, the response time the best of ALL our many vendors. We were never treated like a "too small" event (daughter's wedding with 50 guests) and Noelle and her team delivered everything as promised. She was flexible, professional and offered many service options. The wait staff was skillful, smooth and unobtrusive. Wine service, champagne pour, hors d'oeuvres, rental provisions, buffet service, cake service - all was as well as could be done. EVERYTHING on our menu was delightful and well-received. FFtK helped to make the event memorable.

    Excellent Through and Through!

    Wow, what can you say one you are so lucky to deal with a wedding vendor who went ABOVE above and beyond!? I simply don't think you need to read paragraphs to understand how fabulous Noelle and her team are.

    Fresh From the Kitchen was one of the results I found quickly and right away in my search for a wedding caterer. From the wedding forums to poking around Phoenix options, I found them pretty easily with my search parameters of vegetarian. I hesitantly reached out not knowing how versed they would be in these options (yes, this sounds ridiculous, but one might be surprised!) and enthusiastically received a same day reply assuring me they could handle ANY vegetarian/vegan request, and included sampled menus.

    Simply, I would trust Noelle with any cuisine. You know how there are foods or restaurants where you say "I could make this better at home," and on a night where you don't mind putting in the work, you do? And how there are those dining experiences that you go out of your way for because "I can't make this as good at home, plus I don't want to buy xyz random ingredient, etc.?" Fresh From the Kitchen provides that second option. The absolute wow factor you are looking to be blown away by.

    My menu was amazing - salad, light and fluffy rice, excellent variety of roasted vegetables, falafels with tzatziki and fresh vegetables, and green chile tamales with cheese and green chili sauce. Our appetizers were fruits, cheese, etc., plus chips, salsa, and guacamole. I am lucky to have had one bite of salsa, thanks to our photographer! Back to the wow factor - this team knows how to layer flavor. All of the food tasted comforting like you made yourself, but with the depth that only a professional can provide. From the zing of the yogurt sauce to the absolute perfect balance of acidity and heat in the green sauce, everything is seasoned to perfection.

    Oh, and did I mention Noelle was so easy to communicate with, and postponed our event for us!? She is that type of person. From meeting her at the tasting to being lucky enough to have her at our event, every interaction I had was over the top nice. Her entire staff was pleasant and kind. I would use FFTK again in a heartbeat, and frankly, I hope I have a reason to sooner rather than later! Please, reach out and plan the menu of your dreams with these excellent people.

    Fresh from the Kitchen's reply:

    Wow thank you Cassandra! I'm blushing 😊 it was a pleasure to work with you and make your wedding delicious!!!

    Delicious food, wonderful service - we were so happy with everything they provided for my daughter's wedding. Very fair and flexible - and we are still getting compliments on the food. BEST STEAKS EVER. Will definitely use them again!

    Outstanding Food!

    Noelle is quick with answering all of my emails. She is not only a caterer but a 5-star chef, I couldn't believe how outstanding her food tasted. It was our first food tasting and I picked on the spot that I had to have her cater my wedding.

    Fresh from the Kitchen's reply:

    Thank you for the sweet words!! Much appreciated. :) FFTK can not wait to cater your wedding food and make sure your guest's experience a taste of perfection!!

    Delicious!

    My husband and I had Fresh from the Kitchen cater our wedding and we could not have been more happy with our choice! The food was delicious, and remained hot when it was served. The amount of variety and choices you can make for the menu was great! Our guests loved the food. I would hire them again for future events and recommend them!

    You and your guests will love the food

    Noelle and her staff went above and beyond before we even booked her for our wedding. She created special menu appetizers to incorporate one of my favorite meals, and she was flexible with all of the changes/postponement made due to COVID. Her communication was timely, and there were no surprises with the contract/fees. As for the day of the wedding, her staff was incredible. The food was amazing. Our guests were asking for the recipes to items on the menu, which was a huge compliment. I highly recommend Fresh From the Kitchen. The food is delicious and the service is exceptional. I wish I could get annual anniversary meals shipped out to our new home to relive the experience.

    Five star service and food!

    Five stars for sure! Noelle and her team made sure our wedding went perfectly. They provided amazing food, which is impressive when serving buffet-style. The vegetables were fresh, the meat was tender, and everything was well-seasoned. A really nice touch was that they had our food was ready for us when we sat down. People were telling us that we wouldn't eat on our wedding day, but Noelle's team made sure that wasn't the case! They provided our cake as well, which was delicious and looked exactly like the photos I gave them for inspiration. The staff were professional and helpful, and Noelle even contributed to details like reception layout. Without my asking, they coordinated the buffet design with our wedding colors. I would recommend them for any event! The guests had a great meal and so did we! (photo credit: RadNad Photography)

    So delicious!

    We were so happy with Fresh From the Kitchen! The food was absolutely delicious and the team was professional and easy to work with. We had a southwestern theme and Noelle worked tirelessly with us to customize our menu so it matched our vision. We also had guests with various food allergies and requirements (gluten free, vegan, egg free, etc...), and FFTK was able to accommodate all of these requests and come up with some equally delicious options (the Southwestern Vegan Bowl was a huge hit!) We appreciate all they did to make our day so special and would definitely recommend them to anyone who is looking for a catering group who likes to be creative with food and create dishes that are unique and delicious!

    Fresh from the Kitchen's reply:

    Thank you for your beautiful review! We loved everything about catering your special day. You and Dylan were such a dream to work with and the wedding was gorgeous! I cant wait to see professional photos

    Great Plated Dinner!!

    We had so much positive feedback from our wedding guests about how much they loved the food, which is not always the case at weddings. The passed appetizers were just the right size and all of the dinner entrees were cooked perfectly! I would highly recommend Noelle and her amazing service staff, they did a great job!

    Amazing food

    FFTK was the perfect caterer for our wedding. We attended a few tastings due to my indecisiveness and each time they were eager to help! The food at the tastings was each time so delicious. But most importantly the day of the wedding everything was PERFECT. Even family members who are in the culinary field were incredibly impressed with the taste, quality, and delivery of the food! 10/10 would recommend.

    FFTK is the Best!

    Noelle and her staff are fabulous! From the tasting to the reception, Noelle was attentive and quick to respond to any requests and needs. She came up with a cohesive menu, which was not only delicious but beautiful. Our cocktail hour and dinner reception meals were fantastically displayed and plated. She secured us a cart for our gelato dessert when we were unable to get a cart from the vendor, and she made fantastic Greek cookies shaped like hearts! Hands down, I would recommend Fresh From the Kitchen to anyone.

    Amazing, food we can still taste!

    Noelle and her team were amazing! Fresh from the Kitchen from our venue and the best option by far. We had tasting and knew we didn't need to look further. You can tell that they care about the food and the staff was great at the wedding. We had it set and banquet style, my husband and I had our plates served before we even got a chance to sit down. I would highly recommend them for any event. Thank you!!

    Amazing food and Cake!!!

    Noelle, the owner was a dream to work with. We wanted specific food; tomato soup and grill cheese shooter, a Smores bar surprise for my Husband. A slider bar for late night snacks. Everyone was raving about how wonderful the food was. She even gave us kid options and made vegan dishes for our friends. I mean she made it easy and the food was delicious! She also made our cake which was AMAZING!!!!! french Vanilla with raspberry filling.  I would use again, and need an excuse to! Missing the dream food already!!

    Best food you'll ever have!

    Amazing. Delicious. Best Food I've Ever Had! These are things our guests said to us after the wedding. This food was absolutely AUH-MAZING. Noelle was wonderful in helping us find the menu and package that was what we wanted and that also fit our budget. Her staff was absolutely amazing the night of the wedding and completely went above and beyond to make the night so smooth for us. They even got our food together and brought it to our head-table! Everything about Fresh from the Kitchen was just fabulous! Two-thumbs up and HIGHLY recommend!

    FFTK is a diamond in the rough! After dealing with various caterers, we decided to go with FFTK and couldn't be happier. Noelle is incredibly responsive, patient, and accodomating which is very hard to find in vendors. Since we are out-of-towners, the latter qualities were even more important to us and she absolutely nailed it. In addition, the pricing is absolutely reasonable and there are no hidden costs like I found with other caterers. From start to finish, Noelle was a pleasure to work with and so professional and helpful. They also traveled from Phoenix to Sedona, our wedding location, which was wonderful. As for the food, woah. Our guests have been raving about the food since our wedding (2 weeks ago). It is NOT what you think of when you think of wedding food. It is delicious!! It felt like we were eating at a restaurant, not a wedding buffet. In addition to Noelle and the amazing food, her staff is fantastic. Friendly, professional and great with reacting to difficult setup challenges (it was VERY windy). I can't say enough good things about FFTK. Book them ASAP... you won't be disappointed!

    Look no further than Fresh from the Kitchen for your wedding catering needs. They are amazing! Easy to communicate with from day one all the way up to the event itself. We did a private tasting, which I would recommend to anyone, and were very happy with our experience that day. I'm not kidding that we were blown away the actual day of the wedding. The private tasting was good. We were impressed. This is why we picked them to begin with, but the actual wedding food was SPECTACULAR. These guys know how to deliver. We did a buffet and you would never have guessed it. Would have thought they cooked every one's dish individually. They are so professional and really have it down. We used them for catering and bar tending and couldn't have loved the staff members that were sent for our event more! They really took care of my husband and me that night, always making sure we had a drink in front of us if we wanted one, and making up plates for us while we were finishing up pictures to make sure we actually ate. Countless guests told us it was the best wedding food they'd ever had. Couldn't have been happier with our choice to go with FFTK. My only regret is not being able to eat even more of that glorious food!!! Hopefully I'll attend another event someday that they are catering!

    Working with Noelle and the rest of the crew at Fresh From the Kitchen could not have been better. The food was great and the service was wonderful. They made everything go smooth on the day of the wedding. We also had them provide the cutting cake and cupcakes for our wedding and they turned out fabulous. They provided all of the tables and chairs and were very accommodating as far as changing guest count.
