Ranada, Karin, and their staff were amazing. Our guests raved about the food. I definitely recommend the cascade of fruit, veggies, and cheese. Everyone is still talking about the fruit dip! We couldn't have asked for better catering.

The folks associated with Food Guru went above and beyond to make our 25th anniversary party everything we hoped for and more! People are still talking about the awesome food, presentation and staff. Our event was likely the party of the year in our social circle.

How thrilled were we to have Food Guru LLC dba Lexington Diner headed by Ranada West-Riley and her team of professionals to cater our wedding. Lots of special food needs based on dietary restrictions would have frustrated or scared off other caterers but not Ranada! The food was delicious and looked great. A mountain of colorful veggies and fruit cascaded around delicately cooked salmon, seared chimichurri beef, creamy luscious tiramisu, and moist turkey meatballs. Her team dropped in from the sky and set up in what seemed like minutes, kept everything hot and cold as needed, perfectly organized and clean. Of course since it was a wedding, we were a little overwhelmed with everything we had to do to pull off this date, and Ranada helped by meeting with us several times, and being quick to respond to emails and phone calls. Now we want to have another big event just so we can use her services again. Call now before she is all booked up and you miss out on having your food and catering be the star of your day!

Ranada and her team did a wonderful job and went above and beyond to please me! They helped me stick to my budget and still made me feel like I was getting everything I wanted. She uses fresh foods and cooks it all, so nothing tastes over processed or frozen which is awesome! I would highly recommend her to anyone- you will not be dissapointed!

Ranada worked with us tirelessly. She was straightforward and very to-the-point from the start. She definitely helped me make decisions at a time when I needed guidance. We got so many compliments on the food and catering staff. My only complaint is that the staff acted as if they didn't know they were supposed to cut the cake. They gave no guidance to us when we had no clue what we were to do cutting the first slice and that was after trying to get their assistance for 5-10 minutes not knowing whether or not they were going to handle it. However, very friendly me professional. Overall, absolutely excellent. No hand holding—Ranada has everything under control and she will let you know from the start. That came as a relief to me but may not be for all brides. Best value in Lexington by far.

The food looked and was great but when they left they didn't leave any Water or drinks for the guests and I to enjoy as we continued dancing. The price was great though and she worked well with us to get us what we wanted!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
