D’arcy’s Casual Catering

We ordered a meal for our Christmas party (30 – 36). We also ordered extra side dishes.
We had no major complaints of the food and the portions were fine except for the turkey.
I was told there should have been 30 lbs of turkey and it was gone after the first 15 people.
We contacted them and they said we got the right amount of turkey but we could come back to
get extra at a cost of $ 80 more. After spending over $ 800 they were quite dismissive. We went to Safeway and bought 3 more Cooked turkey breasts to cover the party. We will not use their services again.

I am a little behind on this review, but I wanted to give the business a chance to respond to me.
They advertise a great deal on a catered Christmas dinner. Roast turkey, stuffing, gravy, mashed pototatoes, corn, cabbage rolls, buns and two appe pies. Enough food for eight to ten hungry people for $ 150.00
We ordered this for Christmas 2010 and it was great Mom wasn’t stuck cooking all day in the kitchen (she got to enjoy time with the grand kids), so we decided to do it again in 2011. Unfortunately, that was a bad decision.
The turkey was ok but had a weird spice that it was cooked with, the stuffing tasted horrid, the mashed potatoes were burned brown in the serving tray, the cabbage rolls were charred black on the bottom, luckily you can’t screw up corn and they bought the pies elsewhere.
Being Christmas day there wasn’t much we could do… Our Christmas dinner was horrid but we made the best of it.
Their website has a contact form so I filled it out that night wanting only an apology at the least. No response in three or four days. My father took the tray of burnt cabbage rolls back to them but there was no management in the store when he was there so he left his name and number, no response.
Before this year I had given recommendations to use them every time some was looking for a caterer, now I recommend you avoid them like the plague!
