TESTIMONIALS

Five stars! Top quality entrée’s each uniquely flavored, simply delicious! I highly recommend for any event, office party, corporate meeting, or family gathering. Will continue to use them for all future events...” – Janelle M.
WOW! From start to finish this company has been absolutely amazing. We had a beautiful experience for our tasting, the service provided was professional and stellar. The food was tasty and we knew we had made the right decision. Our wedding was 3 months away and The Black Italian took all our stress and worries away and delivered nothing but awesomeness. Our guest loved the pasta dishes provided and so did we! Book with them for your next event you will not be disappointed. – Darien D.
Highly recommended! The Black Italian catered my daughter's sweet 16 and it was perfect. The personal touches to make my daughter's meal special ( card, mints, family connection helper sheets) were really impressive. Super authentic and Paula does a great job in describing the love and authenticity that goes into each recipe. I had to order mine to reheat later and the instructions to do so were right on point; no taste or texture lost! Highly recommend the smoked beef penne and the creamy garlic formaggio. Super delicious and great people to work with for any event large or small! -Vanessa T.
BIG pasta lover and a bigger fan of smoked, grilled meat. The Black Italian does BOTH!! Kudos to Paula and her Super Hubby Anthony for being one of Louisville's BEST dynamic duos in the kitchen and on the grills! Not to mention, solid hearts of GOLD. Their customer service is EPIC too!! #LoveThem! -Andre G.
Paula and Anthony offer more than just amazing food. They pour their hearts and souls into their work; the result being a fabulous meal brimming with passion and pride. Their commitment to community, and children and families in particular, is an inspiration to all they serve. (Also, don't pass up the marinated mushrooms...trust me!) -Beth M.
"Like" is a complete understatement! The Black Italian catered my uncles retirement dinner and everyone LOVED the food! Paula was professional start to finish. I can't enough about how delicious everything was! The meatballs are my favorite! -Abby B.
