  • Quality food and service

    June 18, 2025

    We wanted to have a dinner for 25 people at our home on our backyard deck to celebrate my wife’s retirement. We saw the diverse menu Tasteful Events offers and the good reviews, then took a chance. They really came through; food delivery and set up of service stations was done 45 minutes before people arrived was ideal. Grilled salmon,. herb-roasted chicken and pesto pasta, along with roasted potatoes, summer vegetable medley saute, romaine garden salad with strawberries and two dressings, along with blue cheese and parmesan crumbles and candied walnuts on the side, fresh bread/rolls as well were all delicious. Kevin Murray was quite fair in his pricing and prompt in responding to us. We had nothing but complements by people on the quality of the food and ample quantities. Highly recommend.

  • Excellent

    June 14, 2025

    I’ve talked, text and emailed with Kevin for over a week about a party we were having for my mother. He was great answering my many questions and going over menus we me. He also responded quickly. Unfortunately, our party couldn’t take place at this time but will definitely use them in the future.

  • Blown Away...

    May 8, 2025

    Hi Tasteful Events Team,

    Thank you so much for the incredible food and service at our Master Gardener Volunteer event! Everything was absolutely delicious, flavorful, and beautifully presented. We were blown away by the generous portions and the variety offered; there was truly something for everyone, and our guests are still talking about it!

    We really appreciated how flexible and creative you were in working with us to create a menu that was a bit different than an ordinary event. It turned out even better than we imagined, and your team made the whole process easy and enjoyable. The staff was also a pleasure to work with — professional, kind, and so helpful throughout the entire process. It really made a difference in helping our event run smoothly and feel special.

    We’re so grateful for your partnership and would gladly recommend you to others. Looking forward to working with you again in the future!

    Thanks again…
