We hired Pickles catering for our staff holiday luncheon. It was some of the best Italian food I have ever had. My staff can't stop talking about it. Thank you Anna! You and your team were wonderful to deal with. We will definitely be contacting you for future events.

We used Pickles Catering for our daughter’s graduation party, and it was perfect! Anna and Gabby were amazing and easy to work with. The food was delicious, and our party guests raved about how wonderful the food was. We even had one guest say they felt like they were at a 5 star restaurant not at a grad party! Everything was perfect! I would recommend Pickles Catering to anyone looking to cater an event!!

This company catered a wedding I attended last weekend & knocked it OUT OF THE PARK! Such great food (esp the pizzas), grest service, & the staff was FUN. They kept the buffet line moving so quickly. Everyone had full bellies & full hearts. Thanks, Mama D's!

We had Pickles cafe cater our wedding, they came up with a plan for the reception setup, worked with our family to get it set up, had more than enough pizza, appetizers, and sides for leftovers and the staff was fantastic, highly recommended service and family company!

I can't recommend Pickles/Mam Donato's Woodfired Pizza more, for your bigger events. We hired them two years running for our kids' graduation parties and we're SOOOOOOOOOOO glad we did. Their all you can eat handmade pizza and salad were devoured by our 100+ guests; to RAVE reviews. They take care of all of the set-up and take down, so YOU can mingle with guests and enjoy the party. Anna is a dream to work with, and her staff are friendly and professional. I'd give them 10 stars if I could. Highly, highly recommend!

I have used The Pickles Cafe for catering for our middle daughters high school graduation party. Working with Anna and Gabby before the party was delightful. When the party arrived the guest were served wood fire pizza and sides and everyone loved it. The compliments were endless. They totally outdid themselves. My daughters friends still to this day talked about how great the food was.
I have also been to their pop ups many many times and it is always so amazing how fast you get your food and how delicious it is every time I have gone.
I always pass the word for those looking for an awesome business for catering and I tell them go to Pickles!!

We had Pickle’s cater our wedding. Best decision ever made. When planning our wedding I wanted pizza as our main course because it is one of my favorite food and a unique food experience for wedding guests. I reached to Pickles because it was a local business serving up wood fire pizzas. Anna was so helpful in the planning process. Our dinner turned into late night snacks and no pizza was left behind! Our guests RAVED about the food and still talk about how fun it was that we had pizza at our wedding. Highly recommend supporting this small business for your next event! We miss the pop up events because we enjoyed going back and having a pizza to remind of our wedding day! Thank you for making our big day so special!

THE BEST EXPERIENCE!!! They have catered 2 parties for me now and the service, communication and FOOD is wonderful. The pizza is a huge hit. We recently tried their specialty pizzas and people are still commenting. This is the real deal. A family owned business with roots in Italy, and you can tell. Will be using again.
Randy Miranda
Pickles was one of the recommended caterers through our wedding venue and we are so happy we went with Anna and her team. The food was amazing ( we heard that from many of our guests) and the service was outstanding. Working with Anna was a joy and she definitely makes it a more personal experience.
Thank you Anna & Pickles for being part of our best day ever.

I have used Pickles Catering throughout the years for funerals. I have been to graduation parties who used their Catering and woodfire pizza services as well. I hired them to cater my son's graduation party this past June. Stellar service as usual, their workers are very professional, Set up and cleaned up flawlessly. The food was amazing, and they par cooked the remaining pizzas so we could take them home. I cannot recommend them enough. The owners are a wonderful family the that takes pride in the product they put out. 5 star food and service.
Melanie Overskei
They were absolutely amazing! Pizzas were so good and the staff was very efficient! Also, they came early and were ready to go right when people got there. We couldn’t have had a better experience!

Pickles Cafe and Catering is the BEST! The owners will do anything to provide quality food, beautiful presentation and provide good quality customer service for any social event that you can think to host from weddings, grad parties to funerals.
I was a frequent customer for years before moving. Do yourself a favor and choose them for your next event! I promise you won’t be disappointed.
Mary Hurlbert
Amazing family owned catering business. I have enjoyed the oven pizzas (exceptional and fun) along with the entire Italian menu. This company works hard to provide the best in food and service. Support small business all you can is my motto. They are dedicated and can handle your event whether big or small.

I was blessed to have known Mama Donato and grateful to have experienced truly delicious Italian food made by hand from her. These recipes have thankfully been passed down to her children and family and honestly taste just as amazing.
The customer service is incredible. They always put community and the customers first. In April, 2020, my brother was hospitalized with Covid 19 and the hospital was on lockdown. To help him, there was only thing to do.....food. One teary eyed phone call later, Pickles Catering had 24 manicotti meals ready. I delivered them to the hospital main door with a note of gratitude to the medical team caring for my brother.
Gaby and Anna from Pickles Catering made a difference that day in the lives of many and I will forever be indebted to them.
To the customer who had a bad experience, I'm truly sorry. After reading my message, I'm in hopes that you will see Anna and Gaby really do work hard to ensure their customers have a good experience.
I highly recommend them!
My best, Kim

Pickles catered my wedding and they were absolutely INCREDIBLE!! The wedding was originally planned for 2020, but moved to 2021 with COVID going on, and they worked with us the whole time, kept in contact, and honored our original menu and price. They were all so nice and friendly, and I’d highly recommend them to anyone!!

Anna & Gabby are fantastic to work with. The food they create is delicious! From the Mama Donato’s woodfired pizzas at their pop ups to the appetizers we served at my husband’s 60th birthday event, they hit it out of the ball park. I can’t say enough about the service and quality they provide!!
100% recommend PICKLES Catering!!

Stop reading this review, pick up the phone, and book your event now! We have used Mama Donato's Woodfired Pizza for graduation parties two years in a row. The planning is easy, the food is delicious, the cooks/hosts are AMAZING! As graduation season approached this year, many of our friends asked if we were having the same AWESOME pizza for our second son's party that we did for the first. That decision was easy for me....YES! One more kid/party to go, and I already know who we plan to use for catering. Anna is delightful to work with.... she's just like a favorite auntie that helps you make good decisions. Our party hosts, Beth, Bob, Jayden and Joelle, made event day a joy for me because they took care of all of the food details for our guests so we could focus on visiting. Add a fruit platter or two to your order...good value, nice quality fresh fruit!
Tanna Halphen
Food was phenomenal! Presentation was beautiful. Staff very friendly and helpful. Would recommend them to anyone having a party. They helped make our wedding special. Guest still talk about how good the food was.
Katie Lukas
Our family choose Pickles Catering for my Dad's Celebration of Life and could not have been more pleased. Anna was incredibly pleasant to work with - friendly and sincere, helpful, prompt in responding, and got every detail right. During a difficult time for our family, having this level of service and helpfulness was priceless. The food was delicious and presented perfectly for our event, and every step of the way I was made to feel that they truly cared to get it right for our special day. On top of everything else, the cost was incredibly reasonable. I couldn't recommend them highly enough!

This was one of the best places for breakfast! I recommend Emily's to any one and everyone!
Ray A. Neset
I brought a friend who'd never been. Immediately he noticed the small town neighborly feel to the place. We decided on hot beef sandwiches. Talk about old school. Delicious! I usually hit this place when I visit my mechanic, Nghia Trinh, on 41st and Thomas. Breakfasts are nust like Mom's.
Kathy Schoenike Dewhurst
I used to work here back in the mid to late 70's when it was Florence and Millie's, hence the F&M. Gus Halkis owned it back then. I try to visit whenever I come back to MN They still have great food and very comfortable atmosphere!
Amy Jo
Found this little place while job hunting with my friend. The food was great, got to sample Emily's famous sauce and it was amazing, definitely going there on a Wednesday for the spaghetti! The staff was unbelievably kind. Overall it was a great experience and I recommend it to anyone in the area looking for a good lunch with good people!! :)
