Tessa was absolutely phenomenal. The food was delicious and beautifully presented and every single guest raved about it. She was professional kind and made the entire process stress-free. I couldn’t have asked for a better caterer on our big day. 10 out of 10 recommend. More...

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Sated by Tessa made my mom’s 50th birthday party an absolute success! The food was exceptional—every dish was flavorful, beautifully presented, and had our guests raving all night long. People couldn’t stop talking about how delicious everything was! Tessa herself is the definition of professionalism. From the beginning, she was super communicative and helpful, answering every question I had and offering great suggestions. She pays close attention to detail and arrived on time—actually a little early—which gave us such peace of mind. She worked quickly and efficiently with her team, and everything flowed seamlessly. If you’re looking for flavorful food, elegant presentation, top-tier customer service, and an overall 10/10 catering experience, please book with my girl Tessa. She truly sets the standard. You won’t regret it! More...

The catering at the wedding I attended on Sunday was absolutely top-tier! The chicken and salmon were incredibly juicy, the mashed potatoes were delicious, and every dish was packed with flavor. The service from the servers and staff was professional and attentive, making the entire experience even better. Everything was truly “bussin” — a memorable meal for a beautiful day! More...

It was easy to work with Tessa to book her for our mother’s repast dinner. Everything was confirmed virtually but she was extremely responsive in communications. Onsite, she and the team got set up and it was clear that they knew the venue well (Dekalb History Museum). The staff was professional the entire time, and accommodated two additional requests—managing the service of vegetarian meat and serving dessert. Our guests were complimentary of the food. The food was served hot, was visually appealing, and tasted good. (We have some very picky eaters and great cooks in the family; all of which liked the food.) I will definitely use them again for events in the Atlanta area. I really appreciate Tessa making this so easy, especially since this was not a joyous occasion but dinner after burying my Mom. We didn’t have to worry about ANYTHING. More...

My mother's 90th birthday! It was seamless, delicious, and professional. 100 people. Tessa set up with little to no direction, served graciously with her crew, and broke it down without leaving a trace. Can't say enough for her.

I had the pleasure of Meeting Chef Tessa a few years ago and was at an event she recently catered, all I can say is that the food was more salivating than I remembered. Tessa’s food always brings back those childhood memories of Grandmas house simply FOOD MADE WITH LOVE. I look forward to attending another event that’s catered by Simply Sated By Tessa. Seriously you all have to try her food it’s like magic and let me tell you those southern style Green Beans made my soul sing. More...
