Chef Jack's is Best!

Chef Jack’s was our caterer for our wedding on 11/9, and they were the perfect choice. At our tasting, the team put together an amazing meal filled with numerous appetizers, two main courses, two sides, and a sweet treat. You MUST do the grilled cheese and tomato soup shooters, they were a hit! Chicken en croute is also a must for the main dish. We are still dreaming of that meal. Our guests complimented the food all night and for weeks after the wedding. Somehow it was even better than the original tasting. Candy was our lead from Chef Jack’s, and she was incredible, coming out often to check on us and the flow of the room overall. They were incredibly accommodating to any and all allergies and dietary restrictions that we had with our guests, and not a single person was unable to be fed, and for two of my guests who had been to weddings where they were unable to eat, this was important to me. I would recommend Chef Jack’s over and over again!

Amazing wedding caterer

My wife and I recently used Chef Jack’s as our wedding caterer and we cannot recommend them enough!! So many guests commented to us how good the food was and we couldn’t agree more. Beyond the wonderful dinner menu, everyone LOVED the grilled cheese and Reuben shooters for the cocktail hour. Also, staff was very attentive throughout the day and made sure any guests with dietary restrictions had their needs met so everyone could enjoy their meals. Finally, leading up to the wedding the point people at Chef Jack’s were always quick to respond to various communications which made the planning that much easier for us. We absolutely loved working with Chef Jack’s and appreciate all they did for us!

People are still talking about the food!

“I have never actually left a wedding full before.” A direct quote I received from a guest. The food was fantastic and I have received so many additional compliments from guests. Chef Jacks was amazing to work with from the get-go. They are responsive and attentive. There was not a detail overlooked. We had a buffet for 160 guests and within 25 minutes everyone was eating. I was so impressed. I have been to other buffet weddings where it took nearly an hour to get everyone through the line. Do not hesitate to book CJ!

Hire Chef Jacks for your wedding!

We had so many compliments on our wedding food and Chef Jacks was to thank! We got married in Oct 2022 and ever since we first reached out, working with Chef Jacks was seamless! They were courteous and professional and very responsive. Not only that, their food is delicious and they think through every detail including a mini shot of baileys at the end! Chef Jacks has a lot of experience catering weddings (as does their staff) so during the day everything went off without a hitch. Not only that, they went out of their way to seek us out and make sure we had a chance to try all of the appetizers. And Chef Jacks has an extensive menu for food sensitivities and went to great lengths to ensure all of my guests were accommodated. I highly recommend hiring Chef Jacks for your next wedding!
