SO MANY guest compliments

One of the top comments we got from our wedding guests was about how good the food was! The whole process of working with Cheryl's was phenomenal. The tasting went very well and they were so sweet even when we go the time wrong and were half an hour late. The food on wedding day was fabulous. We did plated meals and the service was great! Favorites included the butternut squash ravioli and the mushroom risotto. They had a good sized menu with many different options and were very reasonably priced. They were able to provide bartenders while we supplied the alcohol. Definitely would recommend and use in the future if a need arises!

Wonderful Experiences

I worked a wedding at Noble Ridge Tree Deck on 8/17/2024 and I had the pleasure of working with Javier and his team with As Good As It Gets. I want to express my sincere gratitude and high praise for Javier's character and work ethic, as well as the great service from the rest of their team. I was the DJ at the wedding and we had an intense storm hit, almost out of nowhere, and all of my equipment ended up getting wet despite being covered. We all had a really rough day. Javier saved me by wrapping up a bunch of my gear in plastic bags when I was dealing with my second sound system below the tree deck, and once I returned to my main area, he even helped me hand carry all of my things to my vehicle (in a t-shirt getting soaked in the rain) while everyone else hid in their cars or under shelter. I cannot express how much it meant to me. I've worked with Amy on another event series that I booked at the World Forestry Center and the food and service was wonderful. Can't recommend them more.

Dream Team!

The communication from booking to wedding day was so great, I booked this vendor without even ever trying the food. Amy was alway so quick to reply to emails and helped me find the perfect menu. We traveled from out of town for our wedding and guests are still raving about how delicious dinner was. I am extremely satisfied with the entire vendor team I had, and Cheryl's on 12th was amazing. Thank you!!

Would work with as a wedding planner any day

As a wedding planner with Your Perfect Bridesmaid, I've had the opportunity to work with the GAIG Cheryl's team for about 5 weddings this season, and I love working with them! For us wedding vendors, weddings are all about working as a team for the couple we're all serving, and the Cheryl's team are the best team players - they're communicative, detail oriented, transparent, and helpful during the planning process and on wedding days. The couples I've worked with have only said great things about their food, and I love recommending them because they're well priced for a full service caterer and have great options for menus. Thankful for this team and all they've done to help Your Perfect Bridesmaid's couples have an amazing wedding day - you can't go wrong with them!

Yum! Cheryl’s is amazing!

We loved working with Cheryl’s for our wedding! Their food is amazing, we did the maple-glazed chicken and wild salmon for our entrees and they were both a huge hit. Their staff is lovely and we felt well-taken care of through the planning process, our tasting, and the day itself. Our bartenders were fun and kept the drinks and good times going. We have been to weddings where the caterers didn’t not bring enough food, but at ours we had plenty of extras that we’ll continue to enjoy over the next several days and nobody left hungry! We love Cheryl’s!

Great Food and People

Evelyn from Chery’s was great. She was super easy to work with and the food was perfect. From taste testing the menu, to eating the actual food at our wedding reception, everything was just so good. All our guests loved the food and the bartenders provided by Cheryl’s were just great people. There is nothing bad that can be said about booking Cheryl’s for your special event. Highly recommend 100%.

Most professional catering team!

Throughout our wedding planning process, we didn't have the need for outside caterers because in-house catering was offered at the venue. Long story short, we found out that was no longer an option when we were only 5 weeks away from the big day. We reached out to Cheryl's on 12th (As Good As It Gets) right away, hoping we can at least have some simple options to make sure our guests will be fed.

We got a response right away, with Evelyn as the main contact person the whole time. Evelyn is professional, friendly and extremely flexible with our needs. Despite such short notice, she was able to schedule a tasting session for us and provide us with quotes to look over in a timely manner.

Because it is year 2020 and things just can't go smoothly - our original outdoor venue was no longer an option due to the wildfires and air quality. We decided to move to a smaller indoor venue with half the guest count. Needless to say, those few days leading up to the wedding became very stressful for us. But Evelyn was again quick to respond and adjusted everything according to the new number.

On the day of, The catering team was professional, efficient, and made everything go so seamlessly. The venue space was definitely on the smaller side, but they made it work! My guests enjoyed the food very much, and I lost count of how many times the venue owner came up to us to compliment on the team - in his words, "best catering team he has ever worked with".

If you are looking for catering service that is professional, efficient, and reasonably priced, look no further - this is the perfect catering company for you!

Great food and great service

When planning our wedding we learned so much! Things like, feeding a large group of people can really add up! We researched our options, and spoke to several catering companies. Our wedding planner suggested Cheryl’s, and they had a great looking menu at a really reasonable price. As we planned the meal options, Evelyn and Cheryl worked with us to accommodate guests’ dietary requirements, which was really important for us. We received a number of comments from our guests about how delicious dinner was, and we absolutely loved the risotto! We highly recommend them for your next catering event.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
