KICKED UP CATERING
Anthony's Kicked Up Catering was launched in the Grand Haven area to bring a new variety of foods and party ideas to the West Michigan area. It is privately owned and operated by Chef Anthony Gonnella a resident of Grand Haven. With Chef Anthony's extensive schooling and experience in catering as well as full service dining on both the East and West Coasts, you are guaranteed to find something new and exciting to Kick Up your next event.
Additionally, you can visit our lunch restaurant / gourmet delicatessen open Monday - Saturday from 10am to 3pm. Winter Hours are 10-2 M-F from mid December to mid March. Try one of our gourmet deli sandwiches featuring in house roasted meats and Chicago's own fresh baked "Gonnella" bread. We get our frozen dough from Chicago's own "Gonnella Bakery" then proof and bake our breads fresh daily at our restaurant. We also feature a full array of baked goods and breads, weekly lunch specials, unbeatable salads, made from scratch soups 3-4 daily, and boxed lunch delivery to local businesses from Muskegon to Holland. We will go "Above and Beyond" to exceed your expectations.

A typical perception is that catered food is fairly bland and tasteless. Unfortunately that's all to often true. In fact, the majority of catered foods are commercially processed - what we call "heat and serve". While this may be suitable for some palates, we like to kick things up a bit. "I believe catered food should taste like it was made in your favorite restaurant - not in a cafeteria"
"Our dishes are exquisitely seasoned and cooked just right so everything tastes exactly the way you expect. We have high expectations of ourselves, our presentation, and our food. However, you will find our pricing to be very competitive with the typical catering you are already familiar with."
It just taste better.....
Chef Anthony Gonnella
Chef / Owner
IT'S NO BULL... JUST GOOD FOOD!!
SEEING IS BELIEVING



And tasting is even better! At Kicked Up Catering, we take as much pride in the way our food looks as we do the taste. Most people eat with their eyes first and their pallet second. If it looks tasty we are excited to take the first bite.
We understand how difficult choosing the right company to handle your catering needs can be. Additionally we understand the difficulties involved in choosing the menu for your event when you have never tasted any of the items. Our unique catering business has one large advantage. We have a dining room open to the public for lunch daily from 10am-3pm. Chef Anthony and his crew are happy to invite you in for a tasting prior to making any menu decisions. With advanced notice and a small charge to cover the items prepared, you can sample some of the items you may be interested in and base your decision making on taste rather than description.
Call today to schedule a tasting. We would love to show you some of our delicious menu selections prior to your event. The cost of any tasting will be arranged prior to your appointment. Many of our items are available in our restaurant daily and may not require a scheduled tasting. Just stop in Monday through Friday from 10-3 and try any of the items found on our daily menu
