Business Details
We founded River City Catering in the spring of 2002, bringing nearly two decades of operational experience to every client event we serve. We are owned and operated by Kurt and Barbara Enger, who also manage four successful Cecil Whittaker's restaurant locations across St. Charles County and Creve Coeur, giving us deep, proven expertise in food service operations. We expanded our restaurant family to include Stumpy's House of Bar-B-Que in St. Peters, further diversifying our culinary capabilities and recipe development resources. Our in-house culinary team has developed a library of unique, tested recipes that form the foundation of our custom catering menus, setting our offerings apart from generic catering options. We work directly with every client to build fully custom menus aligned with their event type, dietary restrictions, flavor preferences, and budget, solving the common pain point of one-size-fits-all catering packages. We reliably accommodate last-minute catering orders without compromising on food quality, presentation, or service standards, addressing urgent client needs with consistent results.
We adhere to strict, industry-leading food safety and professional service protocols for all off-site, on-site, and venue-based catering events to protect our clients and their guests. Our event staff receives specialized training to deliver seamless, attentive service from initial menu consultations through post-event cleanup, ensuring a stress-free experience for event hosts. We prioritize full, transparent communication with every client at every stage of the catering process to ensure their event vision is fully realized and expectations are exceeded. We have earned consistent positive feedback from clients across weddings, corporate luncheons, private parties, and community events, demonstrating our commitment to client satisfaction. We are active members of multiple local Chambers of Commerce, reflecting our dedication to accountability, community engagement, and trustworthy business practices.

I hired River City to cater my wedding reception and we were not disappointed! The food was outstanding and the service was of the highest quality. Working with George was a breeze - leading up to the wedding he would call to check in and remind me of things that I hadn't even thought of yet! Great service all around!

George and his team did a wonderful job catering my daughters wedding reception that was changed to an open house. George was flexible and easy to work with. Even though the menu became very simple, the food was awesome and a great value! Thank you George!
