    My Fiancee and I were looking for a catering company to service our wedding reception of 30 people at a house we rented in Kissimmee. Living up in BC Canada, we thought this would be a difficult task as we only had 3 days until wedding day after we arrived in Orlando. Chef Jim provided us with everything we could ask for and more! Many of the guests asked where the food was from and took down the name of company for future use. Dishes were delicious, served correctly to requests, sides were great, and the cookies were DELICIOUS! Big Thank You to Chef Jim and everyone at Chef 1 Studios for making our Big Days dinner stress free, delicious and just what we were hoping for!

    Chef 1 had an excellent taste testing arranged for us. It was just what we had expected and would want for our guests at our wedding. He had many ideas for us to consider and suggestions on how our buffet will be set up for our reception. Our selection of items for our menu was just delicious and presented in a very professional manner. We are anxious for our wedding event in March and to hear all of the wonderful reviews from our guests. We highly recommend Chef 1 for your events. He is great.

    Chef 1's food is delicious! I met Jim through my venue at Crystal Ballroom Veranda and we hit it off. I sampled his food and set up a tasting consultation. I was not disappointed. The presentation and flavor was top notch! I'm so glad I hired him as everything for my wedding was perfect. I did a buffet style dinner and the food was delicious. I chose chicken and pork and my guests raved about how great the food was. Again this vendor's service far exceeded the pricing. Great Value! Thank you Jim and your team for all your awesome work!

    After my tasting with Jim I am even more anxious for my wedding day. Jim not only developed a custom menu for my fiancee and I but we were able to taste every last dish. I loved the presentation of the dishes even though we were only doing a tasting. He is even going above and beyond to attempt to find a special coffee for us. I can't wait to enjoy his great dishes on our wedding day

    Chef 1 Studios was recommended to us by the at our wedding was being held at (The Crystal Ballroom), and I could not have asked for more. Food was a high priority for our event, and our guests are still, nearly four months later, telling us how wonderfully delicious the food was. Thank you so much for being flexible, professional, and of course, damn great chefs!

    He gave us a personal taste testing and was very helpful. Super nice guy and if you book through the Crystal Ballroom he has a preferred rate. Couldn't beat it!

    I recommend Chef 1 so much. We had numerous compliments on the chicken. The potatoes were delicious, but I never got to finish my meal!

    So happy with our experience with Chef 1. Thank you!

    I loved Chef 1! We chose the Rose Menu for our wedding. And everyone loves the food. The chicken was amazing. They were on time and everything was set up perfectly. I will say because we were taking photos during our cocktail hour we didn't get many appetizers. So if you do that, make sure you snag some appetizers cause they were amazing! I would recommend them to anyone having an event. Jim was great to work with too. Had a great attitude about everything and was very nice.

    Chef Jim was so professional and everything worked out fantastic. On the wedding day, my husband and I were extremely hungry so we just ate everything in sight. We weren't too keen on the taste, we just wanted food lol. But after speaking with the guests, everyone claimed that the food was awesome and that we catered for just the right amount of people. I am so happy that our wedding was a success - All thanks to them.

    Chef James is amazing, the food is so delicious and they offer different packages for every budget! We hired them for our July 20 2014 wedding and it was the best decision. Our guests were very impressed with the food and the service. Totally recommend Chef 1 Studios for your event. Thank you so much for making our wedding buffet sooo delicious! :)

    Chef Jim !!!! Awesome !!!!!!
    The Crystal Ballroom referred me to Chef Jim at Chef 1 Studios. I do not like to do too much research I am a busy lady so I love referrals. My husband and I met with chef Jim once we decided on a menu (Greek Buffet)
    We were blown away !!!! My husband had a hard time not licking the plate at the tasting, where we tried Greek lemon chicken, patstitio , roasted potatoes and mixed veggies. I am vegetarian so Chef Jim cook up a meatless version of the Greek chicken and it was amazing. We paid for this wedding ourselves, knowing that, he was able to keep us withing budget while producing what my guests said was some of the best wedding food they had tasted. Thank you Chef Jim and staff for everything!!!

    I used Chef 1 Studios for my event because my venue highly recommended him. He did not disappoint. The food at my wedding was delicious!!! Even my picky 6 year old cousin wanted seconds. Something she's never asked for before. I was very happy with the service I received from Chef 1 Studios. The price was great as well and easily fell into my budget!! I would highly recommend chef 1 studios. The only critique I had was sometimes it took a while for him to respond to my emails.

    I loved working with Chef James, he was on point and very helpful. His food is delicious and is worth it. He helped cater to any of my guest who had food allergies and was very laid back. Awesome job, we loved everything!

    Jim was a little slower than he normally would be due to a computer crash which gave him some trouble but even with this got back to us as quickly as possible with each query. He discussed the menu we wanted for our mainly Cuban family and added in an extra dish that I requested. He looked at my suggestion and adapted it to a buffet setting with great success. He provided a tasty meal for my vegetarian son. My husband and my parents in law were very impressed at the tasting. I did not get to try the good until the day of the wedding and was equally happy with the wonderful quality of his food. Everything was hot and tasty, salads fresh, nothing dried out. Breads were soft and delicious. The value for money of his prices for the quality of the food is pretty unbeatable and he was so laid back and easy to deal with. I really don't think any bride and groom would be disappointed with the food or the service from this caterer.

    Food is GREAT.... Jim presented us with an awesome menu and the food was tasty. Our menu consisted of rosemary chicken, apple pecan pork loin, mash potatoes and California vegetable melody. The mash potatoes were GREAT!! We ran out of veggies :-( but other than that, overall presentation and quality of food were good :-). We will definitely recommend Chef 1 for future events.

    Chef Jim catered our wedding that included: beef wellington and chicken satay the hors d'oeuvres, salad, bread, chicken, steak with gnocchi, smashed potatoes and mixed veggies, lemonade and water and a coffee bar. THE FOOD WAS DELICIOUS!!!!!!!!!!!!! The food tasted better than the food tasting, which I didn't think was possible! The temperature of the food was hot too. Our wedding was November 25, 2017 and I can't stop thinking about how delicious our meal was. I have received so many compliments from our guests about how much they enjoyed the food. He also puts the leftover food in to go boxes and those disappeared quickly. I looked at the table and I saw 6 boxes, I looked again and there were none. Thank you so much Chef Jim for making our special day so tasty!

    Chef One Studios did a three entree buffet and dessert buffet at my wedding. Their food is top quality and the price is unbeatable. The only complaint I have is their delay in responding and their short responses. They are not very personable over the phone or in email. If you want quality food they are a great choice but you must have patience to deal with their lack of communication
