My first experience with Durdens Catering was exceptional. The quality and quantity of the Food preparation and service extended by Chef Rytonie and his excellent onsite staff was beyond words. The Pasta Station layout was beautiful and blended perfectly with my daughter’s Bridal Shower theme, “Classy & Fabulous!” I would definitely recommend this service for any event.

Durden’s Catering and Chef Tony did a perfect job on our wedding reception. Everything was beautiful and made to perfection. The staff was very professional. Chef Tony was able to accommodate our growing number guest last minute and Chef Tony did it with ease. I will use Durden’s Catering for all my catering needs.

Chef Tony and his staff were simply amazing! Durden’s Catering prepared our food for our appetizer hour, and prepared/served our wedding reception dinner on 9/26/2015. From the planning stages to the day of our wedding; from initial tasting, to menu selection, to drawing up our contract, to day of execution, we could not have asked for a better experience! Chef Tony worked directly with my husband (then fiancé), my mom, and I to get the best bang for our taste-buds. Our guests are still raving about how delicious the food was!! At the last minute (I’m talking about the WEEK of our wedding), I asked Chef Tony if he could add on catering for our BBQ style After glow, the night of our wedding AFTER the reception! He made it happen! We look forward to working with Chef Tony again. Don’t wait, book Chef Tony/Durden’s Catering now!! Your guests will thank you to no end

I used Durdens Catering for my family’s Thanksgiving Feast this year. I’ve never used a caterer for the holidays and was very nervous but hopeful. Chef Tony exceeded my expectations and my family was very happy with how good the food taste. I strongly recommend Durdens Catering for your next event! I also appreciate Chef Durden staying on schedule during the fast paced holiday season.

Durden’s Catering has provided catering services for several of my important events including birthday parties, my bridal shower and even small brunch parties located in my home. No matter how large or small the event was, Chef Tony exceeded my expectations each and every time. He truly cares about his customers and will go the extra mile to ensure that you’re happy! Even if that means helping to set up your event when other vendors are late, etc. He provides delicious, quality food with beautiful presentations and detail. He is always relaxed and professional which allows for a great customer service experience. Again, I’ve been using this catering service for over 2 years and will continue to do so!

There are many great things to say about Durdens Catering but to name a few, this youthful founder and his establishment delivers to the customers needs. They are efficient, friendly, not over priced and not to mention the food is delicious! The presentation is remarkably. If u haven’t tried Durdens Catering you are missing out. Everyone should have this experience.

My event was a success and the food was excellent. Since you have catered this event, my family is already discussing hiring you for the holidays. Some people claim to be a chef, but not every chef knows how to cook. I can say from my personal experience, you are dependable and your love for cooking shows in the food you prepare! Thank you for all your time and hard work you did for my event.
