Sandra's Catering was great and super
affordable compared to a lot of caterers in the Nashville area! Sandra was always
responsive in the planning stages and was willing to adjust things for me when needed. She and her servers were very helpful throughout the night. I personally really enjoyed her Chicken of the Dukes! She also made our wedding cake and groom's cake, which both turned out cute! We asked for a galaxy themed groom's carrot cake, and everyone raved to us afterwards about how much they loved that carrot cake! I definitely recommend Sandra!

Sandra was super flexible, especially with the changes due to the pandemic. We really enjoyed her food. It tasted amazing and did a fabulous job on the cake. The appetizers were gone in a blink of an eye! If you want amazing food and an amazingly beautiful cake, amongst other amazing things, Sandra is the lady you want! She made our day absolutely fabulous.

My mother hired Sandra back in January for my wedding that past June 29, I gave her a three star because her food was tasty. But for me she lacked people skills. My mother hired her after finding her on the Internet because she lives out of state. I contacted her a few days later and ask if I could come by for food tasting, just so I could choose what foods I like. Her response to me was my contract is signed and there is no refund.
I found that to be a bit rude and very standoffish because that was not my question. After contacting my mother letting her know what just transpired my mother came up with the idea that she will contact her from here on out I know longer need to, I was able to go by and taste the food it was tasty and I did not want my Mother to lose her 50% deposit that was already paid so we stayed with her. However when she made it to my venue quite a few of my guest and staff members stated she was rude. Her food was tasty but I would recommend when doing face-to-face with the guests have her drop the food off and hire someone else for the people skills.

Sandra was so helpful and was quick to respond to any questions I had along the way. She offers so many options and will work with you to fit your needs. I have to mention that our cake was gorgeous! My only regret is not making myself a to-go box before all the food ran out because nearly everything was gone by the end of the night!

We used Sandra's Catering for our wedding reception and were very satisfied with the experience from beginning to end. Sandra invited us over for a free tasting and we knew we had found our caterer before we were even halfway finished! Sandra, the owner, is very responsive, transparent, and pleasant to work with. She has a HUGE menu to choose from and even made a few off-menu items for us, such as the delicious mini key lime pies we requested.
She advised us on order quantities for each dish based on her knowledge of what people generally eat most (or least), which was extremely helpful. The food turned out fantastic! Sandra and her staff were punctual and professional and kept everyone well fed and also did a great job keeping the bar stocked and keeping lines short. Stop looking and just book Sandra's Catering. You won't regret it!

Sandra catered our May wedding and she completely knocked it out of the park. She worked with us throughout the whole planning stage and was responsive, understanding, flexible, and helpful the entire way. Her food and cakes were delicious- many compliments from our guests! The best thing about Sandra's catering is the value- she offers 5 star service for an affordable price. If I could do it over 100 times, I would choose Sandra every time!

Sandra Flock Catering is a five star company. Sandra helped us design the perfect meal for our wedding. Friends and family are still talking about just how good it was! The food was hot, delicious and served by thoughtful staff members. All of this for a great price too! Sandra was there with us the entire time...from planning to the reception. She is a wonderful person to talk to. I am looking forward to using her again!!!

I was extremely pleased with Sandra's catering. She was so easy to work with and really took the time to make the food and layout unique to our wedding. She always responded very timely to my emails and phone calls and I felt completely comfortable knowing that catering was in her hands because I knew she'd make it beautiful and seamless. Thank you for making our day special!
