Here’s What People Are Saying

"John Cain is at the top of his class when it comes to cooking and catering. His food is exquisitely prepared, beautifully presented and as for the taste. . ., a little bit of Paris in Texas. He will definitely spoil you."

– Mayor Phil Hardberger

City of San Antonio

“You are a beast in the kitchen but an even better guy on a personal level. Thank you so much for all you did to make our experience so special for the Mastermind retreat in Colorado.”

– Jason, Josh, and Matej

“Thanks again for providing the catering for the Art Show. There were so many compliments on the meal and the service. It was a huge success! With your help we netted over $30,000.”

– Jim Taylor

“Thank you for an incredible evening Sunday. It was such a great pleasure working with you and it was SO impressive watching you and your team in action – carefully choreographed dance in the kitchen, serving and taking care of all our 150 guests. I am truly grateful and will be a thunder lizard evangelist for Cain’s Fine Catering!”

– Rachel Long

Event Director, Interior Design Magazine

"It was a sincere and unexpected pleasure to meet you as I was leaving the other night after the event in Westlake that you and your staff catered. Congratulations on your remarkable catering business. Although I came to the event to hear the message of a newly formed organization, I must admit that I analyzed the food far more than I did any political messages I heard through the evening. I look forward to tasting your menu at another event hopefully very soon.”

– Patrick Villam

Austin, TX

“Your luncheon was the best I have seen you do anywhere, anytime. It could not have pleased me more. Your meal was perfection. I thought I had gone to heaven. We are so lucky to know you. Thank you so much.”

– Baker Duncan

"We used John for a wedding rehearsal dinner and it was flawless. His staff was very friendly and efficient and the food was amazing. We first tasted his food at Art Night Austin and was so glad we used him for the dinner party. The attention to detail was so good that we are planning to use him again for a company party this summer."

– Trisha Smith

Austin, Texas

"This is as good as it gets…definitely 5 stars. The food was amazing. John has a lot of quotes from very satisfied clients (maybe more appropiately call fans?) on his website and I completely understand why so many people love his food. Equally important, he was so easy to work with. He was very professional and affable. After our cocktail party of about 40 guests, I awoke the next morning and immediately began thinking about how quickly we could hire him again for another party. I just can’t say enough about how much fun the party, food, and drinks were. 100% of the credit goes to John.'

– Reagan Knowles

Austin, Texas

"I personally can tell you that I thought the food was above and beyond wonderful. The service was outstanding and your team handled it all with grace and, quite literally, perfection. One guest, who is from Houston, emailed me the following: “That caterer scored A plus in every single category! That meal at any of the elegant restaurants in Houston alone would be over the $150 per plate we paid. Not one fault could I see or observe. Quaility of food, service, presentation, drinks, all blended to a level all future shows should have."

– Matt Swinney, Founder, Launch 787
