Good food and even better service!

We hired Nana’s for our wedding and they were AMAZING! We got so many compliments on the food and the staff was so great to work with. Our wedding was a few weeks ago at this point and people are still raving about how good the food was! Everyone we worked with was very attentive and professional. Hannah was so flexible with us throughout the whole process and she always responded quickly to our emails. Everything went so smoothly the day of the wedding and I would highly recommend Nana’s for any event!
