Deep Fork Grill Catering

Someone from TX who never used them for catering but posted a nasty review sounds fishy to me. I have been at over twenty events in Oklahoma City for groups such as Make A Wish, The American Cancer Society, Oklahoma Museum of Art functions, etc. and actually eaten their food every time. They are a fan favorite at the events because they have good food and can be counted on to provide the trained staff to support the function.

Deep Fork Grill? I would give it a solid 4 stars
Deep Fork Catering (DFC)? If I could give this 0.5 star I would, but I can’t.
I have been to Deep Fork Grill on countless occasions throughout the years and have enjoyed their food. One of my most memoriable dining experiences was with my husband and I on a Valentine’s Day evening. The food was amazing and service was impeccable.
So of course, when my husband and I decided to tie the knot we put DFC at the top of our list of potential caterers. I corresponded with Wade Starr who is one of the owners of DFG and the man in charge of DFC. Right off the bat, I felt like I was talking to a car salesman. He is a casual business acquaintance with my mom and on the first conversation with him he knocks the price of his catering menu down 25%. Whoah! Seriously? You barely even know my mom, and you don’t know me. I instantly got suspicious because I believe that some deals are too good to be true. We worked out a proposed menu and scheduled a date and time to do a tasting.
The tasting was a complete disaster. We show up to DFG which is where they would do their tasting and they had completely forgotten about their appointment with us. I asked the hostess at the front, and she went and grabbed Wade. I remember he looked extremely suprised to see us and hurriedly sat us down. After a little wait, the staff plopped down 2 or 3 appetizers which were actually pretty tasty. The main dishes that came out was a salmon dish, a beef tenderloin, and a filet mignon. All 3 were completely inedible because all 3 came completely overcooked. The filet mignon tasted like rubber and I had gulp water to eat it. I took one bite of the beef tenderloin and discreetly spit back into my napkin. That was the last nail in the coffin for us.
Wade and I had a conversation about a month later after we had made our decision to go with Ned’s Catering (which was the best caterer ever) where I was trying to let DFC down gently. After I had told Wade that we were going with another caterer, he nearly demanded to know who and then proceeded to drop the cost of our catering menu down 40% instead of 25%. I couldn’t believe my ears, another car sales pitch! I just politely thanked him for working with me. I feel like if we had gone with DFC, our guests would have been served lemons, just like at a used car dealership.
There is definitely a massive amount of improvement that DFC needs to do to operate successfully.
