Priceless Caterings LLC

Incredible! Lisa was great to work with on planning the event. Very flexible and provided great recommendations. The staff arrived as scheduled and went right to work. Everyone was so professional and feedback from the guests was that they were very impressed with the staff and the quality of food. Not only was it delicious, but it was also displayed beautifully. Will definitely be calling them again for our next big event!

Wow total success. The food was exceptional. Would use again for sure. Wonderful service. Can't wait to plan another evert to be able to use their service.

Chef Duane Price of Priceless Caterings left my coworkers and I very impressed after a recent work luncheon. The turkey sandwhich on multigrain bread featured very fresh ingredients including lettuce, cucumber, and tomato. I was generally very impressed by the freshness of everything Chef Duane offered, from the fruit salads and sandwiches to the multi flavored cupcakes that were available. I will definitely be contacting them for my next gathering, work related or otherwise.

This was the best catering experience we have ever had, by far.  Lisa helped with the planning and followed through on everything well in advance.  She consulted with the chef concerning the food, and they arrived early and set everything up with plenty of time.  All cooking was done on the premises, and they kept fresh food coming for everyone the entire night.  They had 2 servers and a bartender to take care of everyone, and no one was neglected.  The servers circulated among all the guests constantly, going through the house as well as to our large outdoor room.
Everyone loved the food.  It was varied and all done so people could eat everything without having to sit down or juggle items between their hands.
After they were done they cleaned everything completely and when they left you could not tell we had had a large party.  True to their word, it was as if we were guests in our own home.

We decided we would host a wedding reception at our house
and originally planned to use a local restaurant to supply the food. On a whim I
used Angie?s list to find caterer just so I was informed what the difference was
in doing it ourselves or having it done professionally. My wife and I met with Chef
Duane at Priceless Caterings and were immediately overwhelmed with his professionalism,
enthusiasm for his work, and dedication to making it a perfect event, not just
for the bride and groom, but also for us, the hosts.
We were offered lots of choices on appetizers, salads, main
courses and drinks. On any item we did not feel comfortable making a decision on
Chef Duane was more than willing provide us recommendations. Chef Duane visited
our house and helped us plan out the event, picking locations for serving tables and additional
places for the large number of our guests to sit and eat comfortably. They
even provided us with recommendations on how to stock our bar so we would have
what guest would ask for. Planning the event was smooth and we received all of
the help for Priceless Catering we needed to get ready.
The event went perfectly. All of the serving staff that was supplied
by Priceless Caterings were very professional and treated all of our guests like
celebrities. The food, from appetizers to desserts were fantastic.  All of the various rounds of food were served
throughout the afternoon, including wedding cake and campaign, were handled by
them and everything was done on time and with no unwanted surprises. The bar
tender they supplied was also wonderful. She was knowledgeable, friendly and our
guests loved her.
Priceless Catering lived up to their promise to clean
everything up before they left after the event. Everything was cleaned. The kitchen
was cleaned; garbage picked up throughout the house, furniture returned to normal,
and everything was spotless.
We received comments from many of our guest how great the
food was, how good the service was and how nice the staff was. I would highly recommend
to all of my friends to use Priceless Caterings. When I do another event I would
immediately call them a not even consider looking for another caterer.

Duane, owner/chef, along with a server & bartender, were able to provide excellent food, and service for our cocktail party.  They literally made me and my husband guests at our own party.  Food was fabulous as well as the services provided.  Upon completion of the party, my home was as if a party had not occurred.  Priceless Catering totally cleaned and left my home spotless.  Can't wait to find a reason to have them cater another event!

Duane and his staff are impeccable. Our cocktail hour happened while we were taking pictures, so I didn't get to try all of the appetizers, but people wouldn't stop talking about how amazing all the food was. There were whipped feta tomato crostinis which I did get to try and were excellent. My husband got to try everything because the groomsmen finished pictures first. He said everything was unbelievably fresh and delicious from the tuna tartar to the mini mac and cheese bites. Presentation was perfect, you can tell they put a lot of time and effort into making everything look just as good as it tastes. We had them prepare prime rib and a marsala mushroom chicken for main dishes. The accompaniments included roasted carrots, squash and zucchini (which were beautifully julienned), pureed cauliflower and a crisp caesar salad. There was mac and cheese and chicken tenders for the kids. Staff was attentive and sharply dressed, they look and play the part well. Many people also commented on how friendly the staff was. I just love that my guests were happy as can be. I couldn't get over how delicious the prime rib was, perfect texture and vegetables were al dente. I really wanted pureed cauliflower because it is a great healthy substitute for mashed potatoes. The vegetarian guests were delighted and were raving about the choices. To top it all off, the mini desserts were just fabulous. I didn't even need a cake. I really wanted to wow guests with a dessert table full of options, and Priceless Caterings took it to the next level. I provided some silver pedestal trays and they did the rest. To name a few desserts, there were rocky road brownies, red velvet cupcakes, lemon champagne cupcakes, and Chef Duane even threw in my favorite "Tres Leches" in a mini bite size version. I didn't know this was even possible, but I had asked if he could pull something like that off and he did!!! I was pleasantly surprised! Thank you Priceless for your hard work, team effort and we didn't have to lift a finger. There wasn't a crumb left to clean up! Wonderful job!

The first occasion using Priceless Catering was a sit down luncheon at our home for 22 guests - my mother's friends who were all in their 80s and 90s.  The appetizers, entree, sides and dessert were all delicious.  Every item was well prepared and nicely presented.  The staff was exceptionally kind and pleasant to each elderly guest.
The second occasion was an open house , which was planned for about 50 guests.  For the open house, Priceless Catering served nine different appetizers, which included crab cakes, mini salads, and small sandwiches plus desserts.  Many of the appetizers are unique, so much more interesting and tasty than the ones typically seen at catered events.  Again all the items were delectable and exceptionally well presented.  Owner, Duane Price, is an outstanding Chef, and he was on site on both occasions to oversee the food preparation and supervise the staff.  We also had a bar tender, who made our favorite mixed drink recipe.  All our guests were impressed with the caterers and commented about the excellent food.
Lisa, the Catering Coordinator, could not have been more personable and helpful throughout the planning process for these two events.  She suggested serving a favorite drink.  She also guided me on food selection and discouraged me from ordering too much.  She assisted me with ordering chairs, table and table cloths from another company.
Both Owner/Chef Duane and Lisa came to our house before the first event to determine where to do the food prep and how items would be served.  The food is freshly prepared, but most of the prep is behind the scenes.  While the crab cakes, for example, are cooked on site, they were cooked on a side court yard, so the smell of crab did not permeate the house.  The servers were pleasant and helpful, yet unobtrusive. 
As the s the host and hostess, we were able to focus on our guests rather than worry about the food, service, and clean up.  Both of these event were very successful because of the expertise of Priceless Catering.

 

   Priceless Caterings is the best. Their attention to detail professionalism and attentiveness is just amazing. The food is to die for and the presentation is excellent. The breakfast is made on site, its not even a big production- they served us mini Greek berry yogurts, scrambled eggs- I wanted the recipe, and assortment of other breakfast goodies--the good smells filled the hallways

OHH brown sugared peppercorn bacon, really was the hit of breakfast!.

 Lisa with her personality and smile compliments everything and her can do attitude is so refreshing. We know we are in good hands!





    We used them for our company spring party and we like to do it big- costumes, dancing, games it all! !! They took care of every detail from the very beginning! They created a menu of  three entrees , Fresh grilled salmon, Organic BBQ chicken and mini beef sliders with so many delicious sides and every topping you could think of.

Chef Duane and his wonderful team grilled everything on site!!! It was absolutely delicious. They set up the bar with a wonderful bartender to international staff speaking several different languages.

   It's a great company and you can see how much they really care! 

    Best of all they do all the clean up and you just walk away.

We love Priceless Catering! They go above and beyond for our Corporate Catering Program.  We enjoy their organic menus, professionalism and staff.  We use Priceless at least twice per week and feed over 60 people on average.  They set up the lunch, display is very well, and take down the lunch each day they provide us lunch.
They have done so well for us that we use them for corporate events and our employees have even used them for personal parties and dinners.  Good job Priceless!

I contacted them and from the first contact everything was  very professional.  Within a couple of days I had an exceptional menu.  We tweaked it a little bit to reflect the regions of the country my family is from (Chicago cut pork chops, Georgia Crab Cake, TX Blue Bell Ice Cream).  They showed up when they said they would, setup, and started appetizers right at 6pm as we had agreed.  Dinner was unbelievably good, even the corn was some of the best I have ever had.  They also went out of their way to do little things like going to get more liquor when I under estimated how much my Baptist family would drink.  They also provided little cup cakes to go with the Sunday bar.  Everyone had a great time and loved the food.  I would highly recommend Priceless.  The price was a little higher than I expected, but was well worth every penny for the experience they provided.

When Priceless gave us the first bid, where we asked for dinner and a bartender and servers, the price seemed too high and we passed. Then we went back to get a bid on a buffet dinner with no servers and/or bartender and with that reduction in price we decided to move forward.  And I am so glad we did.  The wedding was scheduled for 6PM - and they showed up at 4PM - bringing everything with them.  There were two individuals and they were SO PROFESSIONAL.  Not only did they set up the buffet table (and they brought their own with them and it was decorated beautifully), they set the tables (which looked gorgeous), and set up a beautiful water station, I could go on and on!  They served the champange immediately after the ceremony, coming back to each guest many times. Then they served 3 different hors d'oeuvres (all of which were fantastic) to the guests in the backyard over a 45 minute period, each time they would come around they would have something different. After that the guests went inside for the dinner buffet - two choices of meat, salad, bread, vegetables - all just outstanding.  During the dinner period, they kept everyone's wine glasses filled and removed plates from the tables.  They helped with the serving of the wedding cake - and provided an lovely urn of coffee.  Very quietly they were removing the buffet table, etc. in a manner that was that completely unobtrusive to the guests. When they left around 10-11PM,EVERYTHING, and I do mean everything, was left spotless.  The night prior to the wedding, a rehearsal dinner was held at McKinney's downtown restaurant Rick's Chophouse...where the food was excellent...but what Professional Catering served was equally as good at 1/3 the cost.  I really can't say enough good things about our experience using this firm!
Hors d'oeuvres:      
 Whipped feta and tomato crostini?s
  Priceless Crab cakes topped with spiked garlic aioli
  Cucumber hummus cup
Dinner:
Sweet and savory salad with shaved red onion, strawberries, cayenne candied pecans, Crumbled goat cheese and balsamic vinaigrette
Fresh baked Artisanal Bread basket , Crusty French and Multi grain rolls.
Sliced tenderloin medallions served with Hennessey peppercorn sauce
Herb roasted Organic chicken
Fresh green beans and carrots with parsley butter drizzle
Whipped Potatoes

In a word...superb! Being located in Chicago, so not being familar with caterers in the DFW area, I was very aprehensive about selecting just the right caterer for this important customer event. After some google searching and doing some research online, I arrived at my choice...Priceless Caterings. It was also reassuring to know that they had won an Angie's list service award as I wanted to ensure this event was well attended to in every aspect. They did not disappoint! From the pre-event communication and service, Lisa at Priceless Caterings was terrrific - accomodating, reassuring and incredible (and super-easy) to deal with. Then to the event - Chef Duane and the team were phenomenal. They were ontime (and we had a painfully early start to the event -- I'm not a morning person;), professional, attentive, friendly and left no detail uncovered. We do events frequently and I have never had so many unsolicited positive comments from our attendees about the food, flavor and presentation. Wow!  People absolutely loved the jalepeno cheddar chicken! And to find out it was organic, was a nice treat for the health conscious in our group! The fresh squeezed lemonade had quite a few vocal fans as well. The team at Priceless Caterings was the real deal. Passionate about their food, service and their customers.  They promised they would make me feel like a guest at my own event - and they delivered on that promise! It is very reassuring to know that for my upcoming events in the DFW area I have a trusted, reliable and great-natured catering partner in Priceless Caterings!

Excellent bartending service by Wayne. He brought quality ingredients, had a beautiful set up and walked around during the party when he was free and checked in with each guest to see what he could bring. Overall excellent service!

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Priceless Catering.
Where to begin? I hired the firm on a whim after reading the glowing reviews on Angie's List about the company and its owners, Duane and Lisa Price. Duane is a talented and Lisa is the point person on the party planning. Calls were returned promptly, promises kept and enthusiasm maintained even when I was talking prices and vascillating on menu choices. Lisa is one of the most delightful people I have met in a very long time. I was panicky because the invitations were lost in the ice storm and I had to do a last-minute evite; Lisa was patient with the guest count and I found her enthusiasm contagious. Servers Olga and Mary and bartender Melissa were darling, in top form and tireless.They arrived hours early and stayed until the last guest was gone and house immaculate.  Lisa was on hand to keep things moving on schedule, etc. .
Meanwhile, the food:  The menu included to-die-for crab cakes, empanadas with organic beef, hummus cups/cucumber, avacado/black bean/corn cups, tenderloin on baguette with arugula and creamy horseradish, hot Hawaiian ham and Fontina cheese sandwiches, and on and on. Chef Diane and and chef's assistant Damien cooked all food on site, having set up a kitchen in the garage. Duane even brought a surprise appetizer - fried wontons with lump crab - and specialty mini cupcakes at no additional charge. A very gracious gesture.
I thought it was all smashing but my guests - hard-core foodies - were blown away and said best food they ever tasted. The party began at 7 pm  and lasted till after 1 am. Such a joy to wake up the next morning and the house was immaculate, too! I hate to write such a glowing review because the Priceless Catering folks might get too busy and I can't get on the busy schedlule. It's a chance I will take. This was the best catering experience I ever had and the party was a smashing hit.
 Thank you, thank you to Lisa, Duane, Olga, Mary, Melissa and Damien.

I can't say enough about Priceless Caterings.  Lisa and Duane came out to my house during our initial meeting to see my home and where my husband's 50th party will be held.  They brainstormed with me on food, number of servers, where the bar and food would be set up, etc.  Lisa was amazing to work with because she was VERY communicative and e-mailed promptly with my questions.
Priceless Caterings arrived at my house 2 hours before the beginning of the party, set up the food and bar areas and they were extremely clean, efficient and friendly.  Lisa served as the coordinator and she made sure everything ran smoothly from start to finish (wish I could hire Lisa to run my household as efficiently as she ran the party!).  Lisa was discreet, professional and fun at the same time.  The servers (Olga and Mary) were friendly and fun, yet extremely professional the whole evening.  The bartender (Melissa) remembered everyone's specific drinks and made sure everyone was taken care of.  Duane's assistant Damian was busy the whole evening insuring all the food was stocked and fresh.  All of my guests raved about how great they were.    
We can't say enough about the quality and flavor of the food Duane cooked for us.  We loved how Duane cooked all the food on site and the temperature of the food was just right.  Everything from the crab cake appetizers to the homemade guacamole was extremely fresh and flavorful.  The steak and chicken was so tender it practically melted in our mouths and we loved the shrimp taco bar!  The best part about the night was that they cleaned up after the event and our home was cleaner than when they arrived!    
We can't wait to use Priceless Caterings at another event.  Our group can be demanding because we like good food and Duane and Lisa completely exceeded our expectations as well as our guest's expectations.  We can't say enough wonderful things about their services!

Fabulous people.  Worked hard and produced hot, freshly cooked and prepared food.  It was all amazing.  I will definitely use them again.

ne cupcakes,about 8 of them and 4 choc. molten lava cakes . Really!! That's it?  Also, as we inventoried the wine, our darling young bar tender had gotten a little ahead of himself and un-foiled a case of wine. Oh dear, now we all know that in a matter of days that will spoil.  Perhaps we could have another small get together, but alas...we haven't enough food or money at this point.  And what really hurt was when some of my friends told me they did get to have "some" of the excellent yummy food, but not enough and they had to go out to eat after my soiree'! Yet, some friends said they got smart, parked themselves by the kitchen so when it came out they would grab it.  AND:  What happened to my buffet and different heights on black linen and flower arrangements. Yes, I know there was a lovely little vase of red roses somewhere, but who could see them with all those people milling about looking for something to eat?!?!? The cute little roses on the window sill in my kitchen was nice, no one went in there but the help?
Well, truly this could be all my fault, I should have had all this written down in the BIG contract and been much more business like with these precious people. After all, they just like the rest of us are just trying to make a living. And we did try to email it out after the party, and Duane offered to pay me back for the wine and then come pick it up. Lisa offered to make me a sandwich tray for my church ladies.  Those were certainly special touches and I thank you for them, truly I do, you both are lovely people and I have so learned from this experience and pray you will too!  My Mom always taught me, no matter what....make sure you have enough for everyone...that no one ever leaves your home hungry.  I hope no one ever does again.  God Bless you Duane & Lisa...may you prosper in the New Year with health, blessings and love. 

What a wonderful experience we had with this new start-up caterer owned by Duane Price and his wife Lisa.  Not only were they punctual and professional the first time we met to discuss providing services for our event,  they exhibited their commitment to excellence by performing above our expectations at our Christmas party.
They stayed with their game plan which was to provide delicious food with a wonderful presentation while at the same time looking out for the needs of our guests.  Our guests took note.  People emailed me about how they enjoyed the professionalism of the caterer.  And they took care of every last detail before they left. 
The owners and their staff are extremely personable.  We couldn't allow them to leave without having a drink with us at the end of the evening.  I would gladly hire them again!  I am already looking forward to next year's Christmas party!
Hire them ... they are great and you will not be disappointed!
