    Amazing food and service!

    So helpful in choosing a custom menu for our wedding, all the food was delicious, professional and friendly staff. Most guests didn’t even realize it was vegan until after we told them! Would def recommend again and again.

    Chive's reply:

    Thank you so much. Again a great pleasure and I wish you lots of love and happiness in your future together. - Suzy

    Couldn't have been better

    We wanted a venue for a small reception that would show our guests that vegan food can be just plain delicious and elegant food. Chive absolutely delivered -- every course was superb. At the last minute, we decided we wanted to move service outside due to an uptick in Covid, and Chive accommodated us beautifully on very short notice. The service was as good as the food, and the children in attendance were especially thoughtfully treated. Definitely worth the cost.

    Chive's reply:

    Thank you again for such kind words Lynne. It was all our pleasure.

    Lots of blessings to you and your family.

    The most incredible experience I didn’t know was possible

    If you are looking for an above and beyond experience, look no further than Chive Kitchen. The attention to detail, personalization, kindness and care from the entire Chive team, but especially Suzy, made our day and the time spent planning, so incredibly special.
