Catering to Northeast Ohio

Marigold Catering has been impressing Northeast's Ohio most demanding clientele since 1997. Marigold built its reputation in the Cleveland area delivering five-star restaurant quality meals for corporate events, weddings, birthdays, holiday parties, bar mitzvahs, bat mitzvahs, first communions, cocktail parties and many other special events.

Marigold's founder, Joan Rosenthal, decided early on that it was possible to serve fine restaurant quality food to groups of any size. To this end, Joan recruits chefs from Cleveland's top restaurants. The result is superb cuisine presented with the flair and elegance of a top restaurant. When combined with attentive service from our professional waitstaff you get a tailor-made, five-star dining experience - to go.

The Right Ingredients

Marigold has increased in size and stature over the years so that we can handle multiple, concurrent events as well as large, elaborate functions. We have never strayed from what has made us successful - a five-star dining experience coupled with personalized service and close attention to detail - the ingredients for an impressive and worry-free event.

What We Do

Down to every last detail, our Event Planners work hand-in-hand with you to create an event that reflects your vision and fits your budget. From concept through execution, your Event Planner coordinates all the very important details that make for a memorable event: food, alcohol, delivery, staffing, table linens, decorations, tents, music, flowers, limousine, parking, and venues.

Every menu is custom designed based on your vision, budget and dietary needs. We are happy to develop menu items for special diets, such as Atkins, low carb, or vegetarian.

Community Support and Involvement

Marigold supports the local community and economy of Northeast Ohio in many ways. We buy locally grown and produced food whenever possible. These farm-fresh, organic and artisanal foods add to the quality of our Chefs' creations. At the same time, we are helping sustain the region's small, local producers.

On all major holidays, Marigold's entire staff goes to St. Augustine Church , where we help with the production of thousands of meals. These meals go to food shelters around the city and home delivery programs. On Christmas, we setup tables at the church with linen and centerpieces. With client donations, we buy and distribute gloves and socks to Cleveland's needy.

We contribute culinary delights, banquet services, and catered meals at silent auctions to a myriad of organizations. Some donations include:

• United Way Silent Auction
• Aids Task force events
• American Cancer Society Women's Golf Championships
• Access Emergency and Transitional Shelter Programs
• Pfizer on behalf of the Diabetes Foundation

Catering Awards and Industry Recognition

The Northeast Ohio community voted Marigold Catering as one of the top 3 caterers in the region in 2003 and 2005. We have also been recognized for our success as a business and our contributions to the community. Please visit the Awards page to see some of our proud accomplishments.
