Quickstep Catering

Quickstep Catering served a holiday party for our local Senior Center, and the entire experience was a delight from start to finish! Jenna’s help with our order was both friendly and efficient; we especially appreciated how she and Chef Andy worked together to offer dish suggestions that were festive and delicious, yet sensitive to dietary restrictions.
At the event itself, Chef Andy and his staff were precisely on time with delivery and setup, and their service was impeccable throughout the day. The meal was sensational and the presentation was lovely. Several weeks later, we are still hearing compliments from the seniors, their families, and the center staff!
Beyond this, we were very touched by their warm and attentive exchanges with the seniors, from answering questions about the food to simply listening to their stories when time allowed. Chef Andy and his Quickstep team truly go above and beyond in considering and meeting the needs of their clients. We will definitely be calling them again, and recommend them to all!

Thanks to Quickstep and of course Jenna, I was able to relax about a lunch hosted by an important client. You probably think so what, but I’m in Phoenix, my client is in New York and the lunch in DC!
Easy order, easy pay, on time and good food too. Thank you!

Delicious, perfect, great presentation, will be ordering again!
I’ve had the pleasure of tasting Andy’s meals on several occasions. First was a BBQ on our building’s rooftop, second was a dressy evening cocktail hour reception, third was a casual but nice rehearsal dinner, and this last time was at my office. EVERY TIME HAS BEEN GREAT. All required such a different set of needs, staff, requests, kitchen accessibility (or lack there of), audience, but yet they were all done perfectly. He tailors everything to the needs of the client, audience, and venue so well.
And of course, everything was delicious! This last go around at the office, we ordered about 25 sandwiches and had the locally-​made pickles and cookie platter as well (the triple-​step combo). He changes out his options every week and gets very creative, but these were still office-​lunch appropriate (not super trendy or weird). Everyone was well-​fed and appreciated the unique options to choose from.
Jenna took care of the logistics from day 1 and even followed up to make sure everything was OK or if we had any complaints (they want to learn and be better!). You don’t get that kind of service from the chains. And everything came as she said it would — nothing was forgotten. Oh, and I love how they provided a menu and color-​coded the wrapping of the sandwiches to the menu. Rather than everyone looking suspiciously to figure out what was in each (sometimes they pick up the top piece — gross), everyone knew exactly what was in each which they liked, and it sped things up quite a bit.
All in all, excellent food and excellent service provided by a guy and his team who clearly love what they do. It shows.

I’ve used Quickstep Catering multiple times now for various types of events — receptions, formal dinners and quick lunches. Chef Andy and his team are professional, courteous and on-​time! Food is absolutely delicious. Love the rotating sandwich menu. Amazing flavors, quality product, perfect price. Would highly recommend.

Unforgettable sampling with Andy via

is kind enough to share samples from local caterers, chefs, restaurants, etc. they work with. Recently we sampled with Andy of Quickstep.
His presentation alone was interactive and energetic enough to be memorable. He prepped fresh salads, panini’s and other sandwiches right in front of us while sharing the inspiration behind his style and creations. Presented to each of us individually, we were impressed. I can’t stop craving the cucumber sandwich he made! I have been hunting for an alternative elsewhere ever since with no luck. The salad he made included all the right textures and the perfect combo of flavors including goat cheese and cranberries. Clearly skilled, Andy did a great job!
I’m looking to get individual orders instead of catered orders because I enjoyed the presentation so much. Will use Quickstep for any catering opportunity!

Andy and his team have completely changed my hosting life! I used to spend a week obsessing and dreading having large groups of people to my house. But now having used QuickStep Catering for two very important events, I actually take a nap before my guests arrive.
They literally take care of everything from setting up the tables and making them look inviting to uncorking the wine. Most importantly, of course, the food is absolutely amazing! Usually with a catered event there might be one or two items that are good, but not great. Everything Andy makes is delicious — from dips and appetizers all the way through to dessert. I would take the time to kvell about every dish he has made for us, but we’d be here a while. I will say that whatever you do, definitely get the Bruschetta with white beans and aged gouda slivers.
For both events we had a dinner set up buffet style. Andy and Samantha were expert at making sure people had drinks, and cleared plates without being intrusive… a skill I have very much come to appreciate when my guests are deep in conversation and not having to sit with an empty plate on their laps. They also leave my kitchen and house cleaner than when they arrived!
Although Andy definitely loves meat and cooks it to perfection, his vegetarian options have been spectacular. He is very willing to modify any dish to any food restriction. He has made gluten-​free versions of the appetizers and desserts for our GF guests, and they always rave about having great food and not having to bring their own food if they want to eat. I have recommended QuickStep to many people, and will continue to do so with a lot of enthusiasm! I LOVE THEM!
