Five Stars Caterer in Vancouver

Truffles Fine Foods is a professional catering company in Vancouver BC. Starting from the preparation of proposal to our big day, Truffles is very organized and detailed to make sure we have everything we need on our wedding day. The on-site staffs are professional, friendly, polite and well cooperated.

All our guests were very impressive by the canapés. We also had the three courses from their Spring/Summer menu.
Appetizer: Miso Glazed Pork Belly : 4 stars
Entrees:
Beef Sirloin (medium rare): some guests were served with medium, some with medium rare: 4 stars
or
Albacore Tuna: 5 stars
Dessert: Dark Chocolate Salted Caramel Tart: guests feedback too sweet for them: 3 stars

Catering can be expensive, especially if you require food to be served instead of buffet style, as well as rentals and staffing. Food price are reasonable, about $100/guest.

I would say their servers are outstanding! When we were so busy taking photos etc, they saved some canapés for us. They are not just doing their job, but they know who need extra attention and care. Apprenticed!

They did an amazing job for our wedding. We're still receiving compliments about how delicious the food was. They were easy to work with and accommodating for our (multiple) guests' dietary restriction needs.

good overall

We decided to go with Truffles because we had wedding in VanDusen Garden and Truffles is conveniently located inside the garden. Also, we tasted some items and Truffles showed professionalism. We were a little disappointed on the wedding day because the food tasted bland (especially the Paella) and the steak was dry. That said, when we talked to some of the guests, they said that the steak was quite tender. I guess the buffet style means that there are differences in food quality. Many of our guests also liked the dessert and the appetizers. Overall it was good, but for the price that we paid, we did have higher expectations.

Best Catering Company for the Pipeshop

If you want a top of the line catering company that is reasonable - this is the one! Truffles Fine Foods were amazing caterers and we specifically worked with both Monique and then Scott! Both went above and beyond in service! During the tasting, Monique was so lovely, patient and helpful. For the preparation of our wedding, we were so lost because our beautiful venue came as a blank canvas and for a 240 person wedding, it is difficult to estimate the numbers of quantities for everything. Scott was a total pro and really put our minds at ease by helping us with not only the catering but the rentals!!! It was the best idea to just fully go through Truffles because if we forgot or didn’t think of something, Scott had us covered - there was a lot we hadn’t even thought of! He is also just so personable and lovely so we felt a lot of trust going into such a large scale event. The day turned out beautifully because Truffles was so organized with Scott leading the way and making sure everything was in order and even in respect to food allergies or dietary restrictions for the guests! In fact, the food was so good that our guests were raving about how great it all tasted and we were laughing because people were taking more than just one meal at the buffet because everything was just that good. The staff were cheery, helpful and absolutely lovely! Thank you, Scott and Truffles!

Thank you, Truffles!

We were so happy with the service from Truffles right from the quote process, to the tasting, to the execution day-of. We had some logistics issues with our venue and Truffles was able to solve them pro-actively prior to the event and on-site as well.

Knowing events, I'm sure things didn't go perfectly, but from our view - everything was seamless. The food was delicious, served hot and the plating was beautiful. The service was efficient and professional and we had tons of compliments on the food.

We wouldn't hesitate to recommend Truffles to anyone! We are so thankful to have had them as our wedding caterers.

We used Truffles Victorian Buffet menu for our wedding reception, we dealt with Taryn and she was extremely helpful with assisting us choosing our menu options and explaining the associated costs. Our guests all raved about the meal and presentation . We highly recommend Truffles for quality of food and service for the price

We worked with Scott for our wedding, and he was so great to work with. It was a tricky wedding, requiring boat access, and he made it all work so seamlessly. Near the date of the wedding he felt an extra chef would be needed, so he added that onto our quote at no extra charge – it is really apparent that they care about the quality of their food and service and will do whatever it takes to make an event run well! Also, the food is amazing. Thanks so much!!

I have never heard so many people say that this was the best meal the had at a wedding before! We were blown away by the professionalism, kindness, and delicious food we had at our wedding! Everything Truffles provided for us was beyond perfect! The food was amazing, but it was also all the little details that made our experience with them so memorable. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a catering service, not just bride and grooms.

Amazing Food! Great Service!

The food and service on our big day was outstanding thanks to Truffles! Melissa and Scott were easy to work with and understanding of changes that needed to be made throughout the whole planning process.

There was a slight misunderstanding about some of the financial logistics after we needed to postpone our event five days out, but Melissa and Scott worked hard to ensure we were happy and felt comfortable with the changes going forward!

One the day, the staff was all so incredibly kind and respectful. They followed all guidelines for health and safety for the pandemic, but also made sure each one of our guests were happy and full. I am still thinking about the pork belly appetizer, our amazing entrees and delicious desserts!

We couldn't be happier with how delicious the food was and can't recommend them enough!

Truffles Fine Foods Catering's reply:

Thank you for the review Katie! It was truly a pleasure to work with you. Having to post-pone your wedding 5 days out was something none of us would have ever expected, however you handled everything like a champ and thank you for putting your trust in us to still deliver the wedding of your dreams...even if it was 6 months later!! Everything turned out beautifully and our entire team had a great time serving such wonderful people :)

Delicious Food

The team at Truffles were so wonderful to work with! They are professional and have done so many events that we didn't have to do much planning other than select our menu, colour linens and provide a quick timeline. Such a breeze! Truffles was the recommended caterer by our venue, Van Dusen Gardens, and they were the perfect team to partner with. Truffles knew the venue, so we didn't have to worry about liaising between venue and caterer.

Our family and friends all raved about the food -- especially their mushroom risotto (a must!). The food was exceptional, as was the service team. They're definitely a caterer I would partner again!
