The best garlic mashed potatoes of your life!

As You Wish is top notch in so many ways! We had a great experience working with them for our Valhalla wedding reception—Mike is very easy to communicate with and is super flexible. Their menu is simply amazing, truly don’t think you could go wrong with any of the choices. Our guests absolutely raved about the garlic mashed potatoes (more than 5 people said it was the best garlic mashed they had ever had)! 10/10 would use As You Wish again for any catering needs!

Excellent!

Mike and his team were amazing! Not only did they serve 115 people without a formal kitchen, but they also managed to make everything taste great and ensure the bride and groom ate the appetizers that were passed during the cocktail hour. Mike is extremely responsive, and friendly, and also assists with many aspects of the rentals that are needed for the food etc. Everything went off without a hitch thanks to Mike and his team!

Best Caterer Ever!!

We couldn't have done any better than hiring As You Wish Catering for our wedding at Valhalla, on June 4, 2021! Mike was the absolute best to work with, and was always patient and kind when we needed to make some last minute changes. The food was absolutely delicious and our guests all raved about it!! We had the flat iron steaks and teriyaki glazed chicken breasts for our main entrees, so many delicious appetizers and sides, and also did a late night taco bar! Everything was so good! The catering staff was also wonderful and had everything ready on time, and looking great! We also rented some tables, linens, outdoor bar set up, etc from Mike, which made everything easy so we didn't have to use a separate rental company. Mike is the absolute best and is a true pro at what he does! You will not regret choosing As You Wish for your event!
