Madeline's Catering

Madeline’s is simply the best caterer in the Rochester area. Large or small events they do a great job at a great value. I’ve received quotes from other caterers and have seen additional fees that are questionable. Madeline’s Catering is more transparent and does an excellent job.

OUTSTANDING! Madeline and Scott were great to work with for our daughter's wedding! After the crushing same day double blow of having our Maid of Honor needing to back out for health reasons, as well as our caterer because she was retiring - only 2 months before the event!!! (Yikes! bridal breakdown!) - we were thrilled to discover Madeline was actually available (maybe it helped having a Sunday wedding!) The buffet food was absolutely delicious, (the salmon and garlic mashed potatoes were TDF), and they provided an expert bartender even though we bought our own wine and beer. Professional throughout, delicious food and service and cleanup was a breeze and unobtrusive. The staff was friendly and so helpful. THE BEST!

I had your food at a funeral reception today, and it was delicious!

I had my wedding at Artisan Works a few years ago and Madeline was the rudest person I have ever dealt with in the hospitality industry. She could not have cared less about my smaller 40 person wedding. She would not help me put together a menu and I had to practically beg her to send me sample menus so I had an idea on what I could offer my guests. The food was good but I will NEVER give her business again. We used them because they are the caterers for Artisanworks. Well Madeline, if you dont like catering for smaller events then you should not partner with a venue that has smaller event rooms. If I ever have another event at Artisanworks (who were lovely and their party planner was amazing) I will go out of my way to not use Madelines catering. Even though this was a few years ago it still makes me so mad that we paid so much to someone who was so rude and uninterested in our business. edit: Yes this was a few years ago. But it does not change the fact that the service was inexplicably poor. Honestly, the fact that even with all this time it still makes me feel bad is proof that it was not just some minor wedding glitch. I actually went back through my old emails and saw lack of response from Madeline. I was constantly following up with no response. I ended up settling on a menu I didn't want because I could not get help. But don't worry you still got your $75 per plate. I am glad you have other good reviews. Hopefully you are treating others better than you treated me as an "outlier".
