Peter, Martha and their catering team are always outstanding, providing the finest quality of catering options and efficient staffing. We are pleased to refer Mountain Magic Catering to all of our clients, and look forward to working with them in the years ahead. Liane McCombs Wedding and Event Planning
I'll start out by saying we never actually tried any food from Mountain Magic and from other reviews it would probably be great. Our wedding plans, like many couples, were turned upside down from the coronavirus and our original wedding venue closed down and canceled our date. After an extensive search to find other venues that were available we ultimately decided to change plans and have a small wedding in our backyard. Their policy was a nonrefundable deposit so we tried to work with them see if they would move locations to cater the backyard wedding. First they said they did not have a kitchen so could not support the event (and would still not agree to refund the deposit), then they said our guest count was too small, then they said they didn't have a license in Nevada. When they finally agreed to cater (and suddenly required a minimum fee that was never disclosed before) and we went to confirm with them, they said they had already booked our wedding date with someone else because we had discussions of possibly changing our date when our original venue closed. This was a month before our wedding after we had the date booked for a year, and we were left without a caterer, our deposit, and the reality is they seemed to make up excuse after excuse to get out of doing it. Bottom line make sure you ask for and sign a contract with clear terms and dates. We never did and definitely regret it.
We had a forest party rehearsal dinner in Homewood, CA with eats supplied by Mountain Magic. The food was excellent trip tip, chicken with mole sauce, salads (green salad dressing got raves! for the first 20 family members and then appetizers (small turkey sandwiches raves and deserts (everyone raved about the lemon squares! for the 60 attending after the initial dinner. It was a convoluted request of menus that they followed to a tea! All pluses here! +excellent food! Sauces were so good! +Friendly and helpful correspondence Martha and Peter thumbs up! +Prompt and on time +Helpful with our budget +Loaned us serving equipment They were so nice, we would have loved for them to stay for a beer or two!
Peter and Martha catered our wedding in June and everyone raved about the food and said it was the best food they've had at a wedding. Peter was very helpful in finding menu options for vegetarians as well. The tri-tip was the big hit as were the appetizers and the menu options are not just extensive but also interesting, exciting, and flavorful. They were extremely helpful, professional, and communicative. Definitely the best bang for your buck! Thanks again!
