I recently hired Mark and his team to cater my wedding and I could not say enough good things about them. He made some amazing food where everyone was happy. He made a special plate for my grandmother who can no longer have any dairy and his team was responsive and quick when it came to getting the food out. What I was not expecting was just how good the bartending would be. They offered refills to peoples wine and beer, they made amazing drinks and when the wedding was over I had many people tell me just how great they all did. Do yourself a favor and hire Carte Blanche for your next event, you won't regret it!

Carte Blanche catered our wedding in July 2015. The food was delicious and our guests gave rave reviews! They were also able to accommodate my dietary needs. We would highly recommend Carte Blanche to anyone looking for a caterer in the Eugene-Springfield area.

We had carte Blanche do both our wedding and rehearsal dinner, and we had nothing but compliments and good things said about them. Our guests loved the food, they were professional yet personable and worked with us to achieve what we wanted. We will happily use them again and recommend them to all of our friends and family!

I would recommend Mark and his crew to anyone that is looking for a caterer. They went above and beyond all our requests we had. Every time I met with him to go over details on the wedding he made sure that I was stress free, which was a nice change to some of the other people I had to deal with for the wedding. He not only made sure that the food was amazing, but made sure that my centerpieces were laid out correctly and that each table was set exactly how I wanted them to look. His goal is to make sure you are stress free on your wedding day and he did just that! We had a lot of people tell us how amazing the staff was from the servers to the bartenders. We didn't have everyone show up to the wedding that we were excepting, so I thought there would be leftovers for the next day...but there wasent any. Guess that is a good sign everyone loved the food!

We were absolutely impressed with Mark and his team at Carte Blanche Caterers, the day was perfect and the food was incredible. So many people commented on how great the food was. I ate so much, which was funny because I thought I would have been way to nervous to eat, nope- Delish! The wedding was at my parents farm and in their backyard and I was planning from far away. Mark was amazing at answering any questions and even drove over 40 miles out of his way to come scope out the property on the weekend since I was only in town for a couple days! On the day of the wedding he was early and got everything set up in plenty of time. I am so happy I chose Mark with Carte Blanche Caterers, he was a huge part in making my day extra special. If you want an awesome caterer choose Mark and his team, they were perfect! Can’t wait to see the airing of his episode on Diners Drive ins and Dives for his restaurant Soup Nation.

Amazing food! Took my ideas and made them a home run! They made sure my guest were constantly taken care of, and we had plenty of food. They cooked the food right there, and served it piping hot. They were right on schedule with no hickups, and even helped my husband and I cut the cake (since we had no idea what we were doing) They were amazing! I have already recommended them to more brides!

One of the most important elements of a wedding is the hospitality offered to the guests. I thus made it a priority to find an excellent caterer who would provide a delicious and beautiful meal to our guests, at a reasonable price. I found Mark Stern and Carte Blanche Caterers at the Oregon Wedding Showcase in Eugene in January 2011. I read the reviews for his services on Yelp and Google - they were glowing. From the moment I first contacted Mark, I found him responsive, thoughtful, funny, and a joy to work with. He offered his advice and was wiling to answer all of my questions and review our menu choices. We were having our wedding at my MIL's house, and he met us there to go over the proposed menu and to discuss what he and his crew would need on the day of the wedding. Right on time, he contacted me two weeks before the wedding to get the final headcount and go over the details of the wedding. With the exception of the alcohol (which we served), I felt like my wish was his comm... Read moreand. His motto was that he wanted my husband and me to be guests at our wedding and to enjoy ourselves. The wedding was planned for a July day - which turned into an incredibly rainy one. Mark and his crew were adaptable, friendly, quick, professional, and efficient. They set the tables with glassware and lit the candles, filled water pitchers, and set the cake table beautifully. The buffet was set up right on time, and the staff was wonderful. They cleared plates and moved around the rather tight space with relative ease. Mark was kind enough to cut the cake for us. When dinner was done, his crew cleaned up, boxed up the leftovers, and quietly disappeared in the night. They were not an obtrusive presence at the wedding, but were definitely welcome. I noticed very few plates with any food left--I know I cleaned mine! We had salmon and prime rib as our main entree choices, and there was plenty for everyone. The prime rib was tender and well-seasoned, and made an excellent day-after roast beef sandwich. All of my guests said the food was delicious and the service impeccable. There were many things about our wedding that were stressful and did not go according to plan. I am so relieved and happy that the food was one thing that went exactly right. I heartily recommend Carte Blanche to anyone looking for gracious and excellent catering.

Absolutely wonderful! Mark, the owner of Carte Blanche, is willing to do whatever it takes to make the client happy. He worked on a menu with me, sat down and did a meeting with a tasting. He then refused to take a deposit until we had tried everything and had time to go over the contract. The best part about working with Carte Blanche was their attitude of "No, problem, we can do that!" Everything I asked for, from them removing the garbage, to setting the tables, to cutting and serving the cake to bringing ice was always met with a smile and it instantly being done. At the reception, the servers were cheerful and attentive (even though it was just a buffet) and made sure everything went smoothly. The food was absolutely delicious, wonderfully priced, and even the leftovers were boxed neatly. They were also willing to work with us, and we saved a great deal by bringing our own alcohol, which the wonderfully professional and cheerful bartender served.

Carte Blanche did a wonderful job of helping us to develop a menu, prepare for the event and then, on the day of the wedding, were warm friendly and helpful at every juncture. And the food was excellent!!
