Gary’s Catering Inc

We hired Gary’s to cater our wedding and they were horrendous overall. They arrived late to the venue, struggled to get the food set up in time for the cocktail hour, and ran out of alcohol 30 minutes before last call. Then, at the end of the night they yelled at both the bride and groom’s mothers, calling them both liars. Based on our math, they brought enough alcohol for 3.5 drinks per drinking age person, which at a wedding is not nearly enough. Finally, they left the venue early and left a massive mess around the building. This is a terrible company and I don’t recommend them to anybody. Chef Joe and Sheri are great but the staff at the actual venue were among some of the rudest and awful people I have ever encountered.

My wife and I selected Chef Joe and Gary’s catering for our caterers. Their representatives were incredibly helpful throughout the process. During the taste testing, they brought out a variety of foods — and variations — to sample. Even after we decided, they were very opening to modifying their seasonings. At no point did we feel as though we were bothering them with our ideas and suggestions. To the contrary, they took pride in serving us and wanted us to have exactly what we wanted and not just what was on their standard menu. On the wedding day, they were punctual, well-​dress, adaptable to an outdoor venue, polite, and clean with deportment. Best of all, they made their staff available to our wedding coordinator for odds & ends. After the completion of all the serving and cleanup, 3 staffers were available to bus our tables (desserts and beverages).

Gary’s Catering catered our outdoor graduation party last Saturday and did a fantastic job. The food was amazing and perfectly prepared. We had the on site barbecue and it was awesome! The two people, Angie and Andy, who came to our house were super helpful and professional and did everything they could to ensure our event went perfectly. Sheri was super helpful and easy to work with throughout the planning process. I recommend them completely!

We used gary’s for our wedding. Their prices were very competitive, and Sheri was so helpful. I didn’t really eat the night of the wedding, but everyone liked the food. They were very helpful and responsive while I was booking everything. Plus their prices were very good. I used them for their food and their bar/​bartender service. Again, I was more focused on everyone having a really good time, so I didn’t have «high end» food. I did the linens through them as well.

Gary’s Catering did a fantastic job at my wedding reception at the Wixom Community Center. We got complements on the food all night and the staff was great. They were so polite and accommodating. Sheri and Chef Joseph were wonderful in organizing everything the way we wanted it. The helped make our wedding super fun and easy!

Gary’s catered my wedding in 2006. Granted, that was a long time ago and things may have changed, but our disappointment and anger at the way their staff behaved at our event and their lack of response to my very polite letter after the event compels me to share my experience.
Gary’s catered our backyard wedding. I communicated well with them and made it clear that a few things were very important to us: one, that they leave all the wine bottles so we could count and recycle them, and two, that they were not allowed to leave trash on site.
They did not keep any bottles of wine at all — they all ended up in the trash. And the trash? Was left on site. To add insult to injury, all the trash bags were so filled with heavy stuff that they couldn’t even be lifted without breaking. Our clean up was a smelly, messy, fly-​infested nightmare thanks to their lack of professionalism.
At the end of the night, they were in such a hurry to leave that they left behind one of their workers and tore up the grass spinning the wheels of their truck.
I sent them a very polite letter after the event, detailing the crew’s behavior, the clear disregard for the agreed-​upon rules and never heard a word back from them. No apology, nothing.
