FULL SERVICE CATERING
Jamestown Catering Company
Since October of 2015, our top priority has always been to provide excellent service and high-quality food at an affordable price. Originating from the kitchen of Tonic Seafood & Steaks, we quickly gained a reputation as one of Delaware’s premier caterers by putting thoughtful consideration into every aspect of the planning process. The goal from the start has always been to be the best and that requires genuine passion from within. Each day starts with one question in mind: How can we improve? We take great pride in “all-event” planning and providing world-class experiences that leave a memorable impression.
Menu: Our Event Coordinators will work to accommodate your needs efficiently and effortlessly. By offering a Catering Package that is not designed in the form of tiered packaging nor individually priced items, our clients are given the opportunity to tailor their menus from start to finish while our team works to stay within budget. Sample proposals are available upon request to spark inspiration and showcase all that we have to offer.
Partners: In addition to our high-quality food and professionally experienced staff, we provide a full array of catering services from carefully selected partners. This may include items such as customized centerpieces and flower arrangements, tent rentals, upgraded china, and entertainment. Our list is constantly being updated, expanded, or interchanging to stay up to date. All partners must be approved by The Delaware Art Museum and follow the venue guidelines.
Design: Like the culinary experience of designing your menu, our displays and food/beverage presentation will be designed to complement both the Delaware Art Museum and specific theme of your event. From family gatherings and celebrations to corporate events, we will ensure that your event is a success.

Toscana Catering
About Toscana: Toscana is one of Wilmington’s most creative and popular restaurants. Opening in 1991, Toscana helped define Trolley Square as the city’s nightlife destination. Toscana brought a creative, modern twist to authentic central and northern Italian cuisine focusing on high quality imported and local ingredients. Toscana is owned and operated by Chef Dan Butler, one the area’s most decorated and recognizable chefs. The restaurant is located a few blocks from the Delaware Art Museum.

After literally hundreds of functions, large and small, we are so familiar with this fabulous facility that catering here is second nature to us.
Toscana has had the honor of catering important events like the King and Queen of Sweden’s Delaware visit, the wedding of the Vice President’s daughter and the movie set of M. Night Shyamalan’s “The Servant”. But more importantly, Toscana has been trusted with the success of the “most important day” of countless happy brides for more than 25 years.
Toscana has also catered numerous artist openings, corporate functions, fundraisers, and gala events, as well as tour group luncheons and private business meetings at the DAM.
