Our experience with Artichoke and Co. far exceeded our expectations. My daughter and I worked with Dara for menu selection as well as very detailed wedding planning and the final timeline. They have a tremendous selection of rentals which facilitated turning our daughter’s wedding into a magical evening on the beach. Dara is organized, detail oriented, energetic and committed to her clients. It was such a pleasure to work with her. KayLee and the entire staff worked diligently and were fabulous on her wedding day. The food was delicious and the service was outstanding! We give them a 10/10.

My husband and I are both vegan and hosted our backyard wedding at our beach house. We wanted a caterer that could do good, quality food but plant based (which was extremely difficult to find here in FL!). Artichoke and Company did just that and went above and beyond. The food was delicious and they even made us some to-go appetizers to enjoy on our sunset cruise. They showed up promptly to set up and were very attentive to guests while they were here. Would recommend!

I can not say enough about this company. I’m a recent bride. Dara and the artichoke team is amazing to work with!!! If you are looking for someone to take your vision and make it a reality call them! They are extremely accommodating, handle all details from food to wedding planning. We had the most special day and could not have done it without artichoke. The food is delicious and the staff was wonderful. They aren’t your typical cookie cutter catering they are the real deal!!!! We had our wedding at shangri la for the ceremony and then headed to artichoke venue. Dara was there to help with

We went to a wedding that Artichoke and Company catered and ran and it was delicious as well as impeccably run! All of the staff was kind and helpful and the food was amazing. Great guest experience and the bride and groom were incandescently happy all night.
The next day we attended a Sunday brunch at their location and it was delicious with an amazing singer. My husband can't stop talking about the French toast bake.

We just got married at Shangri-La Springs and used Artichoke & Co. for catering, decor, and planning/coordination. I can’t thank Dara and her team enough for bringing my perfect wedding vision to life. She was always available when I had a question or wanted to meet and made everything so easy. If there was something I wanted, she made it happen. Her attention to detail and wonderful team made the planning process stress free. We have not stopped receiving compliments about how beautiful our day was and how awesome the food was. While I got ready with my bridesmaids and the moms, Dara set up

We used Artichoke & Company for our Wedding at Shangri-La in Bonita Springs On October 1st, 2021. Dara was always so responsive and helpful. She and her team were even able to set-up all of our decorations that we provided to them. The morning of our wedding, we had on and off again rain showers. Dara kept all of us up to speed on what the plan was and if we had to go to a plan B. Luckily we were able to have our event as planned. Dara's serving staff were the friendliest bunch of people. Always willing to help and made our guests feel taken care of. Even a month later we are still getting praises

Dara and her company did an amazing job turning my wedding into the most perfect day! Not only did Dara step in without hesitation to help my mom with anything she needed but she also made sure everything went according to plan with ease.
I did not have to worry at all which every bride knows can be very hard. She made sure everything was set out and in place and even went above and beyond and added a few items to elevate the vibe. She is a 10 out of 10!
Not to mention the food was beyond amazing! Artichoke was very reasonable and easy to work with .One thing they don't skimp out on is the quality

They did a few parties for my dads company and they were absolute perfection! From a casual BBQ to a formal dinner party they can really do it all. The service is spectacular and the food is top notch. His high end clients were more than impressed with the food & how professional the staff was. I definitely recommend them for your special occasions. Can’t wait to use them again soon! Thank you Kaylee, for all of help and for being so responsive throughout the whole process.

Unbeatable service! Every experience i have had with Artichoke has been nothing short of amazing. The staff is extremely friendly and knowledgeable, and their food is on another level! I signed my daughter up for their cooking camp and she absolutely loved it. She learned a lot and the experience made her willing to try all kinds of new foods! Highly recommend *5/5*

I cannot share enough positive things about my experience with Artichoke and Company! They completely exceeded all expectations and went above and beyond for my baby shower. The food was absolutely amazing (tasting and presentation). The staff was so helpful and communicative. I sincerely enjoyed my experience and will use them for any future events. Highly recommend!!
