She was very knowledgeable, kind, reliable, professional, and communicated well through out the entire process. Her food was great, I received many compliments from guest. We are vegetarians which can be challenging, but she was able to deliver exactly what we wanted. Also she made sure her set up went well with the theme of the party! caroline hart This is a very long overdue review and I’m so sorry it took me so long to write, but I highly recommend Clarrisa’s Kitchen to anyone who is looking for a caterer in Columbia/Lexington/Irmo area! Clarrisa catered my wedding at Southern Oaks venue in Gilbert, SC 1/14/23 and did an outstanding job. She is super sweet and responsive and what drew me to her is that she had such an extensive menu that offered almost everything I wanted for my wedding. I wanted American, Korean, and Vietnamese food at my wedding: being a Korean American myself and my husband being Vietnamese. Clarrisa provided me with American and Korean catering and although she couldn’t provide me with Vietnamese catering she was kind enough to lend serving dishes and a printed out menu for that portion despite it being from another caterer. Her whole team did a fantastic job setting up, serving us, and dancing with us through our reception. Clarrisa’s cooking is delicious and a year later I’m still hearing from our guests about how good our food was! Clarrisa was even sweet and thoughtful enough to send me a happy anniversary email on our anniversary and gifted us a dinner for 4 which was so nice. She now has an event space in Irmo that is beautifully renovated and is perfect for any occasion. Thank you to Clarrisa and her amazing team for everything! Robyn Smith Clarrisa's Kitchen and Catering is AMAZING!! Mrs. Clarissa was so kind and helpful. She listened to all needs and request and did a FANTASTIC job with my daughter's Sweet 16 party. My daughter was overly satisfied and the food was delicious! She helped me set up and bring my vision to life! She knew I was pressed for time and accomodated my schedule also. Her prices were so reasonable and her food was beyond my expectations. I will be using her for all my events in the future!! Thank you again for making my daughter smile!!! Kayin Darby Excellent service!! They went above and beyond!! We looked into several local (and larger) catering companies and decided on Clarrisa's Kitchen and Catering. Not only was the food delicious, but the quote provided was half of what other vendors offered with NO drop in quality, presentation, or service. The service was professional and personalized to our needs (colors, tastes, etc). We are truly grateful for the contributions provided to our special day, and would recommend them to anyone who asks. Crystal Felder 5 stars is not enough for this business. I hired Clarrisa to cater a surprise party for my mom and it was nothing short of amazing! She was more than just a caterer. She secured the DJ, photographer, and the decorator. Clarrisa and her husband James are so kind! When we met for the first time though we were conducting business and they were extremely professional it felt like I was planning a party with family. When my brother and I were unsure of what to do for a menu she took her time and went through options with us to craft the perfect one for our guests. What I appreciate the most was her communication! She would check in every so often to confirm there were no changes and to verify that she'd secured the appropriate people for the party. Her and James' venue is absolutely perfect for any gathering. I don't even have words to describe how good the food was. Clarrisa even did a cheese and fruit tray for a cocktail hour that paired perfectly with the Sangria bar. The night of the party she had another event and despite that, she still made time to come by before we left to see how everything went. Her staff members were so kind and professional! The price for renting the venue, food, photographer, decorator, and DJ was very reasonable. I had contacted 3 other caterers and either they never contacted me after filling out an inquiry or they stood me up. I'm so glad they did! If you are having an event or need a venue do not hesitate to book JC Legacy Event center and Clarrisa's Kitchen. You will not be disappointed!! Ashley Sansone This catering team is seriously the best I could have ever imagined!!! We booked for our rehearsal dinner and wedding and each night the food was AMAZING and not to mention the team was so gracious, accommodating and fun!! The owner, Clarrisa, made sure everything was perfect for both of our events and is outstanding! You can tell she puts her heart and soul into her business and her food to serve her clients with the best experience!!! I can’t say enough great things about them, I’m so thankful!! Chloe Steude Clarrisa catered my wedding this past weekend, we were absolutely blown away. The food was excellent, and the staff was focused and dedicated. I cannot give my praise enough to this woman and her hard working employees! 10/10 catering experience would absolutely recommend! Lekiesha Clyburn Clarrisa provided myself, my fiancé, AND my mom with the most amazing experience during our tasting. The set-up was beautiful and the food was delicious! OMG the peach tea & pineapple lemonade hands down the best drinks I have ever had! So glad to have Clarrisa and her team as our caterer for our big day! Audrey Smith The food was absolutely delicious. All my guests gave 5 star approval. Excellent service. I highly recommend Clarrisa's Kitchen Taliah Jarvis I cannot say enough about working with Mrs. Clarrisa. From our first discussions, to the tasting, to the day of the wedding she went above and beyond to make sure my husband and I were happy. She was super sweet as I went back and forth and finally settled on a menu. At the tasting we sampled the menu and had some great laughs! On my wedding day I had some family members that were fasting due to Ramadan and she made plates for them in to go containers and put it to the side so they could enjoy when they broke their fast. Her staff was also very professional. And did I say the food was DELICIOUS!!!! We had salmon, roast, chicken marsala, mashed potatoes, rice pilaf and green beans. Let me say it again... the food was DELICIOUS. We will be using Clarissa's Kitchen for all of our future events. She is now part of the family. Thank you again to Mrs. Clarissa and staff for exceeding my expectations! Stacey Ray Would definitely recommend Clarrisa Kitchen. The food was great, guests especially loved the crab dip, meatballs and pasta salad They were prompt and professional. Great job!
