Endive Fine Catering

We had them for our wedding reception. Amazing food. We received so many compliments from guests. The amount of food and the portions were so much more that expected for heavy hors d’œuvre. The shrimp n grits were so tender and juicy, even as leftovers they were still just as tasty!

I gave Endive 5 stars for the following reasons: 1) cuisine — their food is super pleasing to the palate and the eye; multiple guests told me how delicious the food was and that it was the best they had ever had at a wedding — the fact that they cooked everything onsite was super impressive 2) professionalism — all of the staff looked very polished and the servers discreetly offered pass hors d’œuvre and quickly removed used dishes from the tables 3) customer service — Julia, our account executive, treated my fiancée and I like VIPs at the tasting and throughout planning process — the Chef Daniel took the time to share Endive’s history, philosophy/​unique selling points, walked us through the abundant offering laid out in front of us at the tasting and helped us customize the menu. If that’s not 5 star service I don’t know what is!

We used Endive for our wedding Oct. 23^rd. Everything was perfect! The food was absolutely amazing. For dinner we selected the shrimp and grits, beef tenderlion with horshradish sauce, grilled chicken with mixed veggies, asigo potatoes, butternut squash, tomato basil salad on mesculin greens. For hors d’oveuvres we had duck pizza, micro chicken wontons, and shrimp with sweet chili sauce. IT WAS ALL FANTASTIC! I am still receiving comments on how great the food was… and this is from picky eaters. The best wedding food they every tasted, they are telling me. YES… book Endive… and use Carol as your coordianator. She will make sure that everything goes smoothly.

Chef Drew and his whole team is amazing. My guest are still talking about how my wedding had the best food they have ever tasted. There was not one thing that we ordered that did not impress. I would suggest certain things to get but honestly I just could pick. Carol is also the best! She was guiding me until the end. She is such a genuine person, she really cares and wants your day to be as special as possible. If you haven’t found a day of coordinator, Carol is also perfect. She knows all the vendors In The wedding biz, she is detailed and will keep you on track. Endive made my wedding. I can not thank them enough. Amazing!!!

Endive’s restaurant Publik House as well as their catering services are THE BEST. The restaurant is delicious for a weekend night out and also a fun and discreet way to taste a lot of what’s offered on the catering menu… Though Endive will certainly do a lovely private tasting for your catering preview needs.
I have used Endive’s catering services, and specifically Julia, three times now: for a wedding reception, corporate holiday party, and a cocktail networking event. Each event has been very different and every time is spectacular. They are easy to work with and never pressure or hassle; I feel confident they have my, and the specific events’ best interests in mind. They are always responsive and just a pleasure to work with.
There have been multiple times Julia has fielded questions more appropriate for an event planner… Which I’ve never had due to budget… And each time Julia is so gracious and patient with her time and expertise. They absolutely go above and beyond.
The day-​of staff has always been excellent. To see them transform a room in a matter of minutes is truly like a work of art! They are organized, prompt and courteous.
Based on other catering companies I have priced out, they are extremely reasonable and fair.
And of course, none of the above would mean a thing if their food wasn’t incredible. At every event, we have received rave reviews. Their asiago-​stuffed potatoes and duck pizza are my favorites!
I would not think of using anyone else for my catering needs!

Love the little Publik House open only on weekends. The food is really special. It’s a tiny little place but you feel like you’ve been let in on a precious secret.
The cocktail bar is as good as any I’ve tried (better than Paper Plane, almost on par with Leon’s), and the ambiance is very cool.
It’s a little hard to find so drive slowly when you get around the corner of Mecaslin from Deering Road — the sign is pretty subtle.
My girlfriends and I did a lot of small plates and were fighting for every bite. I made a reservation & requested a «corner» table where we could have a bit of privacy and a table that would be good for 6-​way conversations — they accommodated us perfectly.
Highly recommend that you seek out this little gem tucked away on Mecaslin.

So we walked to Endive.
Who knew this place is across from where I live!
I pass it everyday but I’m guessing I never noticed because it’s only open Thu, Fri, and Sat evenings.
Also a catering company the history and story of how it all came together is a great one.
The food is incredible and I enjoyed everything from ambiance, menu, wine and beer selection, fully stocked bar, and impeccable service.
I ordered the Roasted Chicken (apple smokey charred skin and amazing flavor) served over collards swimming in a flavorful broth.
He ordered the salmon and said it was fantastic. We shared the butternut squash and it was the best part of my meal.
We moved to the bar for Moscow mules and bantered with the bartender who I guarantee I’ll be coming to visit again.
Her personality is everything.
She sent us dessert and she officially was my favorite human ever, each small bite of this cute dessert plate hit the spot.
The best being the little cheesecake in my opinion.
They change the dessert trio weekly and there’s always new and fresh things on the menu! Our server was attentive, helpful, and efficient. 5 stars all around for me.
This is going to be my favorite spot and new dinner place on weekends!

Fantastic!
Carol and Chef Drew at Endive literally handled our wedding reception a week ago today and I couldn’t wait another minute to write up their review!
A++++ all around!
Carol handled all the rentals/​set up/​planning beautifully, and calmed me down when the weather forecast became ominous. She is responsive and just delightful to work with!
Chef Drew and his team (which were all pleasant, helpful, friendly, and professional) created a delicious menu and even boxed up the left overs which were promptly devoured when we made it home the same night! Chef came out and greeted guests, made sure everything was going well, etc. throughout the night and really made everyone feel at home.
I cannot say enough good things about Endive and their staff.
If you need catering big or small, look no further!
The groom and I are already planning our anniversary dinner at Endive Publik House to try and recreate the wonderful evening! (If we can wait that long!)

Hosting your daughter’s wedding is the grandest party one will ever host and we wanted a very special meal. We had various tastings with caterers throughout the Atlanta area and became disenchanted with the quality offered and the prices set. It was our wedding planner who led us to our final tasting with Endive. We were greeted at the door by Julia Hurwitz who remained with us every step of the way. She was a calm and highly capable presence throughout our selection of the menu, to visiting the reception site, to coordinating with our wedding planner, and finally to personally serving us at our reception. We were thrilled when both she AND Chef Drew were at the helm the night of our event. We were in the finest hands possible. No detail was overlooked. The entire staff the night of the reception was professional and polite. I never saw a misstep all night. I had been so reassured all along by Julia and Chef Drew’s management of our requests that I didn’t feel I had to oversee what they were doing. I just let them do their work and relaxed. That is how it should be! The last thing the mother of the bride should be doing at such a time is micromanaging the caterer!
We have received ongoing raves about the food and the service from all our family and guests. Many of them even said it was the finest dining they had ever had at a wedding reception and we wholeheartedly agree. Not only was it exquisitely delicious, but the passed appetizers and the buffet were artfully presented. That was very important to us. I requested the bride and groom, parents and grandparents be served and that was done the minute we were seated. This allowed us to simply enjoy the meal and each other without distraction.
Beyond the impeccable quality of the team’s work was the cost of the catering. Their price was FAR below any of the other caterers who had provided quotes to us. Even further, their decadent tasting was hands-​down the finest we had and accurately represented the level of excellence presented the night of the reception. It was obvious that they truly valued our business and sought to «exceed our expectations.» There were no surprises at any point.
I cannot more highly recommend Endive catering for any event and will only consider them for any catering I may need in the future. It is exciting to also be able to plan a date with my husband at their recently-​launched restaurant. We look forward to being wowed again and again by this extraordinary team!

There will be more information to follow but this is the start
So we had a meeting yesterday with the catering consultant. He was great. He drew up the venue for us and showed us the planned lay out they had in mind. He suggested a way to correct an issue with tables there being differnet heights and how we could over come that. He even helped get us clear on the best way to do draft beer if we wanted. Then he laid out in great detail all the costs and was helpful and knowledgeable about the food and everything else. I am really looking forward to the tasting coming up. It is amazing how crappy some caters out there can be able appointments and organization for potential clients. I mean if you can not get your shit together for a meeting or tasting how can we depend on you to do an event. This was by no means the case here. Professional, friendly, and seemed to really care about things.
