We had our daughter's graduation party yesterday and Tasteful Connections provided the food. The planning was so easy and their communication was top notch. When they arrived at the house they had smiles and set everything up quickly and beautifully. The food was phenomenal and there was more than enough.

We recently used TC for a 50th birthday party. We wanted heavy appetizers and a real casual vibe. They were incredibly helpful in selecting an appropriate and diverse menu. Pulled pork, Buffalo chicken sandwiches, delish bacon mac and cheese, a large charcuterie board and sesame meatballs were the features. Our guests loved each. Reasonable pricing, helpful staff--it was excellent all around. We highly recommend Tasteful Connections!

I wish I could adequately explain how grateful I am to Michelle, Sandra and all those at Tasteful Connections for helping make our daughter's wedding (which unexpectedly became a diy at-home wedding) a wonderful experience that left us happy we had an at-home wedding! They were hired somewhat last minute, but fit us in and immediately stepped up to communicate, provide detailed information, ask very helpful questions about items I had not thought of, and supply a detailed cost quote. All of this put my mind at ease knowing that I had hired a true professionally run business to cater our event.

We used Tasteful Connections to cater a post-wedding brunch, and we were so happy with our decision! Michelle Renee did a terrific job of helping us pick a menu appropriate for our event and space, and was really flexible in making the changes we wanted that would fit in our budget. You can tell that the team is really experienced because they were able to get our menu rolling really quickly, and had lots of ideas for how to make it varied and special while still fitting in our budget. They offered helpful advice about how much to order, and were clearly giving advice in OUR best interest, not

Tasteful Connections recently catered my wedding On July 18, 2015 which was held outside at a friend's lovely home on Canandaigua Lake. Sandra and Kelly attended to every detail and made us feel like family. Our 80+ guests loved the food, as did we, and there was plenty leftover. Not a problem to be had. Everything went off splendidly! Hire Tasteful Connections for your next event. We plan to work with them again in the future!
