French Connections Catering

Fresh Connections catered a function for our residents. They were easy to deal with when setting up the event, very responsive, and showed up on time with everything delivered as planned. I don't have much experience dealing with caterers, but if they're all as easy as this was, then I know I won't have any problems. Will absolutely use them again when we have another event!

Food is amazing, staff is fantastic. Used them twice now and will continue to use them.

I used this company for an event earlier this month and I was very satisfied with the service. The staff are very patient and helpful, and everyone said the food tasted amazing. I would definitely recommend this company for catering.

We have used Fresh Connections for three events so far. The food is amazing. The booking staff is extremely helpful, and the staff at the event was very professional.

We use Fresh Connections to cater our lunches at work. They have a great menu, are easy to deal with, alwys deliver on time, and the food is wonderful. Highly recommended.

Amazingly fresh Food, incredibly professional service, and super Knowledgeable staff. They turned something that is usually crazy stressful like feeding over a hundred people and made it an actual pleasure! To my boss I took all the credit, but all I did was chose the right caterer and the rest was history!

Fresh Connections catered our holiday meal and we could not have been happier. Delicious, delicious, delicious is all we can say. It encouraged us to hire them again for a work related project and they provided an amazing breakfast and lunch with Covid in mind - all the meals were separated into box lunches. The staff loved the meals - we highly recommend this place.

FCC catered our staff holiday luncheon last week and the food was delicious. Great presentation too! We were extremely satisfied

Can I do a negative #? No? Well lets just say this place is not only a scam, but definitely NOT a business that takes ownership of their mistakes.blatant ones at that. So, I decided to do something different for 'movie night' and instead of ordering out, decided to try out a local catering company that does home delivery. I decided to go with the beef tenderloin WITH (emphasis on 'WITH" as that is what the website AND my invoice stated) Chimichuri sauce AND roasted fingerling potatoes.

Plus a side salad and dessert. So, the meal arrives with NO potatoes.okay, no problem, can just call or email right? Oh NO.WHAT the FLUFF? An added on $30.00 (!) DELIVERY charge (which is NOT stated on the website at all NOR added on when you check out). Okay.no problem, companies and restaurants usually take EXTREME OWNERSHIP of missed items. SO I wrote in AND called (seriously had to leave a message because NO ones was THERE?).

The NEXT day (?) I get a call from a nice woman Brianna (oh she was pleasant) who tried to DENY that potatoes come with the order. Um WHAT? yeah the pics below pretty specifically state 'WITH'. SO I sent her pictures of the below. Then she called back and comes up with MORE excuses ("Oh our ordering system is off." "Oh our service is experiencing." "Oh potatoes are a side items that you have to pay extra for.") Sorry FRESH CONNECTIONS, this is NOT how to own up to YOUR mistakes.

She then asked me what would make me happy (okay nice start). I think stated that refunding the $30.00 delivery fee (!) on a $155 ORDER might be a good start. Nope.all she was willing to do was rebate a paltry $15.00.seriously? 10%? So, for all your catering needs, SKIP Fresh Connections.(I am not even mentioning the wrong salad dressing being delivered).lesson for you companies, you don't want to take Extreme Ownership of YOUR mistakes, your customers will do it for you.:)

You have to try their Quinoa Meatballs. Made my day. Most genuine and accommodating staff. Your event and food is safe in their hands!

Thank you so much for making our Harvest Dinner such an amazing success! The appetizers were OUTSTANDING! I have to tell you that I have attended many catered events and I rarely enjoy catered appetizers. However, the appetizers and Apple Cider you sent over were fabulous. I am going to order double the amount for next year's Harvest event! The linens were PERFECT and we couldn't believe that the cider stayed piping hot until 9 pm! You will have this account for years to come! AMAZING!

I use this Caterer weekly for at least 150 people. They are always professional, responds quickly to any and every email, friendly, inviting and provides top quality food and service! Check them out TODAY!

Absolutely blown away by the level of professionalism, courtesy, and flexibility that this company provided for my wedding reception. Excellent food, especially the stuffed peppers; service went above and beyond what I asked; excellent communication through the entire event. Could not recommend highly enough.

I attended an event they catered where there were some soft chocolate chip cookies. I bit into one and there was a nutshell or something equivalent inside. When I bit into it I heard a huge pop, then realized it had dislodged my crown and broke another tooth. It was expensive to get my teeth fixed, and it took months for the pain to subside. Even now my tooth is really sensitive. Giving them one star because food shouldn't break your teeth!

I had a group of people to cater for, they all enjoyed their food from fresh connections. The service was excellent so we catered from them the next day again! Even though they are located miles out of Downtown DC, they still managed to get everything perfect and were on time, food was delicious! Thank you

I am on business travel this week and Fresh Connection has been the caterer that supplies our breakfast and lunch. The food has been very fresh and good! I would recommend them if you are hosting an event.

Order three hors d'oeuvres from them. The Indian butter chicken tart; jalapeno wonton poppers; and fog, olive and balsamic flat bread. All three orders were scrumptious and were a hit at the party. Their service is good too. Ask for Luis if you connect with them. He explained the dishes to us and was constantly connected till the delivery was made.

Work uses them sometimes. They can make sandwiches ok, but everything else is very mediocre.

My job uses them often (3+ times a month) for our catering needs. They are always patient with us and our last minute order/changes. Jose is amazing to work with and always offers suggestions for what we are trying to do. The drivers are always on time and very pleasant to work with. Overall a great company to do business with.

My goodness they are spectacular. We two different events using them this week and each time I was wowed. The first event was Wednesday and it was on the freshest deli spreads I've ever laid eyes. The meat spreads was perfectly displayed and tasty. The fixings and bread trays was outstanding. Don't forget the cookies and brownies yummy. Today they served up some Chinese cuisine that honestly taste better than any Chinese joint I've visited in this neighborhood. Keep up the great work guys.

I recently started ordering catering from here for work. I order from a variety of places every day and this is definitely one of my top 3 favorite places to order from. The food is very fresh and there are many options than the regular ole turkey and swiss on rye. They have a corned beef and coleslaw sandwich that I adore and the even though I'm not a big dessert person, everyone loves them! I've also had samplings of their hot entrees and they do not disappoint in the least.

I really enjoyed their chicken parmesan and then there was a yellow rice with a sort of middle eastern style chicken that I also enjoyed. I'll be honest, I have yet to have anything mediocre from this place. They are prompt (if not 10 minutes early), the price is a deal for the quality of food and care received from here. I am very happy with Fresh Connections and will continue to order from them often.

Chicken slathered in what seemed like Elmer's glue, butter, and mustard mixture scrapped from who knows where, with white rice that had tiny green bean and corn pieces from last night's scraps mixed in. Would rather eat shriveled gas station hot dog on stale bun. Showed up 2 hours late too.

Fresh connections did a catering sample for my office. We were able to try tons of things off of their menu for free! The food was amazing! I recommend the chicken cordon bleu. We are leftovers for 3 days because they brought so much. We have now made them our #1 caterer for office meetings.

Fresh Connections catered a work event today. This place is aptly named! The sandwiches all looked delicious, with nice green lettuce and varieties of bread. It was a difficult choice, but I went with the roast beef and I was not disappointed. Very high praises to the pasta salad as well, with it's fresh & crunchy red and green peppers, and cilantro for just the right zing.

The person referring us to this place uses it for their business meetings, which I am sure it is fine. (Being on the companies dime). However, we used it for a small cocktail reception post wedding ceremony. The servers did not speak english (or they acted that way) when a guest would ask for a specific wine, they would get something else. A case of our wine that we personally bought went missing.

I felt as if they were not as honest, as a business with their reputation should be. Was very disappointed service wise. The other component -the food itself was decent and there were no complaints from guests. Would not recommend for weddings/ personal functions; they should probably stick to the workforce sector.

I first was introduced to this place when they had brought samples to various offices in my building in Falls Church. The entire office fell in love with the pastries that they brought. I have since moved on to another office and I still use them even though they are in Herndon and I work in Old Town Alexandria. The food is always good. It's fresh and very tasty.

All the pastries are made from scratch. I have never been disappointed by any event that I have had catered. They are always on time with the deliveries and very friendly. I would recommend them to anyone. (Hint: If you can get the chocolate croissant you will not be disappointed.)

My wife and I took my parents to French Connections for a late breakfast on a Saturday and it was a good experience. The decor was clean and simple. The service was attentive and quick. We had the egg strata $8.50, french toast $7.99 and egg and bacon croissant $6.50 which were all delicious. We also got a toast basket $4.00 which featured an assortment of bread.

The french toast used brioche toast and could have used more egg and milk. The egg strata was like a breakfast lasagna and very yummy. The croissant sandwich was tasty but the croissant itself could have been fluffier. It is tucked away in a office park-like setting next to a Bank of America so it is not easily seen from Herndon Pkwy. I would recommend it to anyone searching for a nice uncrowded breakfast place. They also serve lunch and dinner but no breakfast/brunch on Sundays.

I went here with a friend of mine on her suggestion based on recommendations from her co-workers. It was fine. I had the French Toast and she had the waffles. From the outside, this place leaves a lot to be desired, but they did a good job trying to decorate it into a more welcoming restaurant. The food was good, and the service was great. We let our waiter know we would be there for a while and he didn't rush us at all.

Even when he dropped off the check, he kept coming back to refill our water.two hours later. Overall, this place is pretty good and I would definitely go back. I worry about it, though, since there weren't many people there on a Saturday morning. For quite a while, my friend and I were the only ones in the restaurant.
