Great, professional and well-priced catering experience

Working with Chef Tony was a great experience. Throughout the entire wedding planning process, Tony was very receptive to adjustments to menu items including vegan dish options. He was always very kind and extremely organized when it came to planning, phone calls and keeping track of anything we'd need for the day of. There are several packages available which are reasonably priced. We selected the Turquoise Dinner package and there was plenty of food for everyone with ample leftovers! The wait staff was extremely professional on the day of the wedding. I definitely recommend splurging on the little bit extra money for their staff to clean up all the dishes at the end of the evening. Everything was great and I would definitely recommend Chef Tony to any future brides.

Chef Tony is Amazing!

I couldn't have asked for better catering for my wedding. Chef Tony and his staff gave us an amazing experience. From the excellent communication to the politeness of the serving staff on our big day. We just recently got married after the restrictions were lifted in our county, and Chef Tony was very flexible with us as our numbers and wedding date kept changing. Not only that, but he is a great person to work with for your wedding. He checks in with you and asks questions and updates you while showing how much he truly cares about your wedding. The food he provided was so delicious, we still keep getting compliments about how good it was! We also decided to ask him to do our cake and desserts, and we couldn't have asked for a better dessert layout! It was so tasty, and I wish we could eat like that every day. I highly recommend Chef Tony and his wonderful staff!

Great food!

Chef Tony was great to work with, and his food was delicious! We got the Ruby Dinner Package, and all the guests really enjoyed it! Tony did not personally cater our wedding because he had another wedding to work, but his staff did a great job in his absence. We also had Chef Tony make our wedding cake, and it was SO good! We definitely recommend Chef Tony for any catering needs!
