Amici’s Catered Cuisine

Roe, Michael and Dan were outstanding! They made our party a huge hit! From set up to clean up, they did it all! The food was amazing, the service even better! I would highly recommend Amici’s! The planning team helped me make great choices and everything was beautiful! Although my party was only for 30 guests, they treated us like we had 300 guests coming. Thank you to the entire team for the best party we’ve ever had!

Amici’s was amazing! I would definitely recommend them and will use them again. The food was great. It was all very well presented. My guests raved about it. It was so wonderful having staff there to help out!

I have used dozens of catering companies over the years. That being said Amicis has far exceeded my expectations more so then any other catering company I have used. They have accommodated my last minutes requests for large parties without any problem all while providing high quality food. I’ve used them multiple times after receiving such great feedback from my hospitals. I will continue to use them. I want to say thank you to Susan and her team for the great work they do.

When we went to our first bridal show, we tasted Amici’s and were instantly impressed. After going through the whole wedding process, we couldn’t have been happier with our selection.
Amici’s has tremendous food, and our guests were raving about it. The filet Diane was top-​restaurant quality, and all of the apps were delicious.
I would say what stood Amici’s apart from anything we expected was the level of service on the wedding day. Not only were our guests completely satisfied, but they really cared about my husband and I throughout the day. We never had to worry about food or drink or service. I would highly recommend them for any wedding.

On behalf of my entire family, I want to thank you and everyone involved at
Amici’s for making our family event yesterday so fantastic. You all FAR
exceeded our expectations in terms of quality and service. Everything was
absolutely perfect! The ham was remarkable … many guests asked where we
got it and said it was the best ham they’d ever had. And we are ham snobs,
as my husband, who hails from Kentucky, normally BBQs our Easter and
Christmas hams and he was prepared to be disappointed. Not!
The salad was so much more than the typical iceberg lettuce. The green
beans were still crisp. And the scalloped potatoes were divine. Really, it
was without a doubt the best catered dining experience I’ve ever had. And I
tend to be a bit fussy and critical so I am not praising lightly.
The service was fantastic as well. I received a call about an hour prior to
delivery asking if I wanted the ham carved. The man that delivered the food
was so thoughtful in terms of helping us to get set up, and leaving the food
warmer with us so we didn’t have to heat up the oven. And the fact that you
even brought the ham bone so we can make soup later was just an added
delightful touch.
In this day and age, where people are so quick to criticize and so slow to
recognize great performance, I wanted to make sure that you and everyone at
Amici’s knows how absolutely thrilled we were with the service and food.
You truly made my husband’s big day special, and for that I am extremely
grateful.

The Amici’s team came through big time in a pinch for a last minute outdoor catering need I had. The owner, Michael, personally showed up at 7:00 am on a Sunday for our event with the chef to greet me and ensure things were on time. Thank you!

We had a great wedding at Sunken Gardens in St. Pete, and Amici’s were a big reason why! First, we had an interesting time at our tasting, most of the dishes we tried were amazing, but one particular was a lil too different for us, the jerk chicken with rum sauce. It was tasty, but not something we thought the majority of our guests would enjoy. We mentioned how many of the guests were hispanic, and if there were any dishes they would suggest. She said they could do a black beans and yellow rice, with cuban chicken. We were glad they were so flexible and the pricing remained the same. The cocktail hour went great, the linens they provided there and at the reception were very nice. We had a fruit and cheese station, and 2 butler passed hors d’oeuvres, The fruit station looked great, everyone enjoyed the food and kept asking for more! The reception was great, and the staff was very attentive. We went with a buffet, and they made our plates for us and made sure to stop by everyone once and awhile to see if we needed anything. I LOVED the black beans, cuban chicken, and london broil. My wife really liked everything, but especially the mashed potatoes; she went back for seconds and got a whole plate of just that! Some of our buddies were obnoxious NYC foodies, who can be kind of elitist when it comes to food. They loved it, and kept going back for more. It has been a couple weeks now, and people still mention what a great time they had, and particularly how good the food was! Awesome staff, and awesome food!

Wow… that sums up Amici’s…by far the best food around town, and the staff is always professional.
Having an event… call Amici’s.

Catered a party for us, I wanted to have something a little better than store bought trays and even the local deli didn’t have a good tasting potato salad so I went out on a limb and trusted fellow Unilocalers. We had a large pool party 35 guests, a summer cold menu, sandwiches and salads. I was nervous. Would this place use cheap subway grade meat or have over processed tasting foods like the pre made Mac salad at Publix? No! They all rocked! Sandwiches: bread — great variety and very fresh, loved the pretzel roll, meat — all high end, think Boars head or better. Nothing disappointed. egg, tuna and chicken salads all so good I wanted my own sandwich, half of each but had no room for them all after the tender roast beef. Got to taste all thanks to family. Fruit and cheese plate were custom designed and carved into shapes like birds, all fresh, same with veggie tray and the tossed salad. Compliments on all. The potato and macaroni salads were unbelievable. All done in professional display, well packaged and high quality delivered in time and set up no additional charge. This is the way to impress people folks and boy did it taste good! I would normally have gone store bought but Amicis provided that taste that if someone had brought a good potato or macaroni or tuna salad to your party people ask for the recipe. It was such a pleasure to offer our guests such great food. At least a dozen times I was asked for the contact info for the caterer. I will never order a tray from Publix again and any future party we have will be catered by Amicis. Thanks for making our party rock!

SO pleased with the catering that Amicis provided for our Twins Baptism! The food was hot, delicious and the cocktail tables we rented were perfect! I would DEFINITELY recommend this caterer and will be using them again!

We choose Amici’s Catered Cuisine for my husbands 50^th birthday party. From the beginning everything was fantastic. During the party the food was delicious, the servers were professional, flexible & polite, and really did whatever they could to make our celebration successful. I’m still getting messages from people raving about the food & staff. We were especially pleased Amici’s allowed us to hire their bartender (Kristina was awesome!) with liability insurance while using our liquor– that saved us a lot of money. I will definitely use Amici’s again.

Amici’s is AMAZING! We used them for our company party where we have a little less than 200 people attending and they just rocked it.
First off, they are incredibly professional with preparation and planning. They were SO easy to work with and could even handle random menu changes I threw at them last minute. The crew was great and worked wonderfully as a team. They set up everything, took everything down, and were 100% professionals in between. They were also very enthusiastic… which is always refreshing!
The decorations looked amazing and the food was superb. I can’t recommend them enough!

When attempting to pick out a caterer, I was a little overwhelmed as there are a lot of caterers in the Tampa Bay area. My venue highly recommended Amici’s, so I decided to go in for the tasting. We were really impressed at the tasting, but the thing that really sealed the deal was the fact that they had risotto as a starch option, so we signed on up!
Amici’s was really easy to work with and was very responsive throughout the planning stages of the wedding. We had some menu changes and they had no problem with this.
Onto the wedding day. I got so many comments from my guests on how GREAT the food was and I couldn’t agree more. They made sure the bring appetizers over while my husband and I were taking pictures and the banquet captain was made sure that the groom and I were taken care of at the reception. Over all, I would really recommend Amici’s. They are a professional and delicious caterer!

By far one of the most professional business I have evern worked with that delivers the finest product and service they have to offer. When planning a wedding, you expect every detail you can imagine to be tended to with care and to the level of details you want it to. With the craziness of planning the perfect wedding long-​distance, it makes a difference having an experienced and professional caterer like Amici’s take care of their part.
Aside from the fact that their food taste delicious and amazing, their service along the way was excellent. Their office was very professional-​looking with a formal dining room table for us to sit and sample their food. They were very prompt in answering any random questions I had about our contract and what was included. They were good to e-​mail me to remind me when payments were due. Their wait staff was extremely attentive in picking up food from the buffet while we were right besides them picking what we wanted. They were amazing in bringing plates of food to my grandparents and extra helpings of the london broil to my father-​in-​law who at the time didn’t have a chance to sample.
To top it all off, you can’t beat any other place for their catering packages. Their packages include hors d’oeuvres, food, AND a standard tiered cake from the list of their approved bakers (all you have to pay the baker is the deliver fee, extra décor stuff and extra slices beyond the number of guests you’re serving). In all honesty, don’t bother looking at most of their other bakers. Chantilly Cakes is the best they offer that matches the quality of their food and service. Since our venue didn’t have anything for alcohol, we bought their call-​brand (i.e. lower end) bar package that was amazing since they offered brands of gin and vodka you actually heard of.
If your wedding reception isn’t restricted with what caterer or bar service to you, Amici’s is THE CATERER to do the job for you.
