Creative Hands Cuisine is a boutique event caterer based in Mesa, Arizona. Our mission is to take a vision created by our client and create a one of kind culinary concert containing elements of great food and service to produce a theatrical and memorable experience for our guests.

If the old adage of “you are what you eat” is true. It would be best to eat only gourmet, fresh, local and sustainable food whenever possible. Creative Hands Cuisine strives to deliver all of those elements whenever possible. Healthy food makes healthy clients!

Creative Hands Cuisine is a close knit group of people in and out of work. Our team takes tremendous pride in pleasing clients, striving to exceed what’s expected of us. Many of our team memebers have worked with us for over 10 years and continue to elevate their level of skills and performances with us. What all that means for the client is great consistency and fluidity of execution of events.

We boast about our chefs who not only are masters at culinary creations but who are also well manicured, well versed, and interact with and enjoy educating guests. Having a uniformed chef approach your table to ask how your meal was is a common occurrence rather than an isolated one with Creative Hands Cuisine.

Wait staff and Bartenders are all extensively trained for success. Guided by our operations team of experts, all service staff receive training in logistics of different styles of service from plated to stationed to buffets. Etiquette training is another key component to what makes our wait staff superior to others in addressing clients and presenting cuisine and beverages.

This was more than a wedding, it was an amazing experience!

We had a small micro wedding, so we wanted more than just a wedding, we wanted an experience... and Creative Hands Cuisine went above and beyond! This was the first time in a very long time that everyone enjoyed the food, the appetizers, the entire experience! When we were picking out a caterer, we wanted something memorable, and that's exactly what we got! The entire team was so great from the very beginning! We were coming in from another state so we couldn't go try the food beforehand, but after reading all the reviews and talking with the amazing team that we had, I knew everything was going to be EXTRAORDINARY!!! Working with Sarah was such a blast, she helped guide us on exactly what we wanted. If I could do it all over again, I'd find a way to go to a tasting because the food was so good, I wanted to try more things that they offer. If I ever need for a caterer again, I will be sure to book them immediately!!! Everything was exquisite!!!

Amazing company to work with!

From day one, Creative Hands has been professional, highly organized, communicative, and amazing to work with! We considered numerous catering companies for our wedding day and none matched Creative Hands. Their proposal was outlined so well and food options were spectacular! Sarah always quickly responded to any questions and modifications I wanted to make along the way. On our wedding day, our guests raved about the food! Creative Hands even worked with us to create a late night gelato bar! You won’t regret choosing Creative Hands for your event!
