Patou Catering

My company held their holiday party at Patou last evening, and I highly recommend this venue for yours! Restaurant staff was accommodating, the Events Coordinator I dealt with was very helpful, and the General Manager was there all during the event in case anything came up. The atmosphere is inviting, warm, cozy, sensual and fit for any event. The food was fabulous and got many rave reviews from my staff--the salmon and lamb were top of many's list! Planning this was made easy by everyone there. I will definitely use Patou for future events!

After a desperate search for a space to hold a partners meeting, I got connected with Roman from Patou, and we were set! He created a number of different spaces within Patou's main dining area for us to meet and dine in. Our menu was fabulous- we enjoyed breakfast and lunch in the space, and it was a diverse enough menu to satisfy even our vegetarian and vegan associates. The only thing to consider is that you are in a room with an open floor plan (our meeting was held from 8:30 am to 5:00 pm). Depending on where you are in the space, some of the areas are a thoroughfare for Patou's employees. The lighting focuses more on creating dinner "ambiance" and cannot be easily catered to daytime use, althought the skylights do a good just for the majority of the day. As well, it became slightly difficult to hear when the dinner preparation started, since there were a number of people working in the kitchen and setting up tables and the like. Beyond that, I would highly recommend utilizing the great space and amazing menu that Patou has to offer. My thanks to their staff for making it a successful event!

Pros: Service, Menu Options, Space

Cons: Lighting, Noise

After our endless search to find a venue for our Wedding in Phila., we made the decision to have the reception at Patou. This was the perfect setting for our 125 guest reception. Roman's expertise with event planning and coordination helped us plan a flawless and unstressful reception. We received many positive comments from our guests about the food - very well prepared and delicious. The level of service we received from Roman, Mark, Chef Patrice, and staff were absolutely fantastic. We highly recommend Patou's catering services, venue and restaurant.

Pros: great service & staff, delicious food

My firm had its end of fiscal year party at Patou. It was terrific. There were about 100 of us for cocktails and dinner, so I expected the usual rubber chicken dinner. Not so at Patou. The food was great, and the drinks were tip-top. I was surprised that my firm treated us to a gourmet experience, at such a cool spot. I have gone back with friends and the regular dinner menu is even more awesome.

Pros: Food Drinks Cool Vibe

I just had my rehearsal dinner at Patou and it has truly been a wonderful experience. Too bad I did not choose Chef Patrice Rames to cook for my wedding dinner reception as well! The food was unbelievable. We had chosen a simple salade de Jardin for the appetizer, the skate and the lamb shank for the entree, and the "chocolat chaud" for dessert was just outstanding. I would definetely recommend anyone to contact the staff at Patou for an event inquiry; they are great to work with and very accomodating and they gave us one of the best dining experience we've had in a long time. Thank you Mark, Roman, Chef Patrice and all the staff at Patou.

Pros: Great Staff, Excellent food
