Where it began

behind the scenes

The Armview experience… but we take it up a notch.

With deep roots in the community and a reputation for delicious food and great service in a family friendly environment, it made perfect sense for the Armview Restaurant to start bringing that experience directly to wherever clients wanted to share it with others.

Commitment to Excellence

We know when you invite others to share in your special event, you want the food to look, smell, and taste amazing, and your guests to feel well attended by staff who care about their experience. Uptown Catering took everything you liked about the Armview and took it up a notch.

Evolution into Catering

So we started to cater events, bringing all of our previous kitchen and service experience with us. As the different kinds of events we served over time had different needs, our chef got creative. We added hors d’oeuvres and other items perfect for groups to our menu, and cocktail party food became another specialty for which we were renowned.
