    Made sure our wedding was perfect!

    I cannot say enough about how much I loved having Maison cater our 2023 wedding! From the moment we had our tasting in 2022, all we could talk about was how good our food was going to be. Somehow the food was even better during the wedding - and the drinks from the bartenders were all excellent as well.

    Nick and Danielle were amazing to work with. Danielle was very responsive to all of our menu questions and very open to suggestions. If you are in need of a caterer that can make some of the best vegan or other dietary restrictive food, look no further - it was absolutely phenomenal and we didn’t have to worry at all about cross contamination.

    Finally, Nick was just so amazing the day of our wedding. He was so professional, so excited to see was get married, made sure we always had food and drinks, and just a very wonderful person.

    Great experience

    We really enjoyed working with Maison Cuisine for our wedding. Nick and Danielle were great. They are very professional and kept our wedding running smoothly. They made the planning process easy and fun and worked seamlessly with our venue and other vendors. The food was great! We appreciated the variety of vegetarian and vegan options they have, as did our guests. They are also very reasonably priced. Would highly recommend them for any event.

    Fabulous experience!

    We highly recommend Maison. We worked with Nick and Maison for our wedding in July 2023 and it was the best decision we made. The process was streamlined and Nick and Danielle were so helpful along the way and day of. The team was professional and so wonderful to work with. We felt very well taken care of and the team helped us work through best food options for the various dietary restrictions at our wedding. All of our guests could not stop talking about how amazing the food was. We will definitely be recommending Maison to our friends for future weddings.

    Fantastic Experience with Maison Cuisine

    Maison Cuisine was the perfect caterer for our wedding and we are grateful for the opportunity to work with Danielle, Nick, and the entire Maison Cuisine team. We made several changes leading up to our wedding and Maison was so easy to work with and always responded quickly. The service staff was excellent, and we received so many compliments from our guests about how great the food was. I will recommend Maison Cuisine to anyone looking for a caterer for their wedding.

    Best. Caterer. Ever!

    Maison Cuisine somehow blends quick communication, exceptional service, and reasonable pricing into what can otherwise be an overwhelming wedding caterer bidding experience. They worked seamlessly with our venue and BYO liquor vendor, asked thoughtful questions and buttoned up all of the little details in advance of the wedding. I truly didn't have to worry about one thing on the big day, and my guests truly *raved* about the food. It came out hot (seriously!) and delicious for each of our 110 guests, and the apps, dessert and late-night potato bar (fries, tots, and toppings galore!) did not disappoint. I'd recommend them to truly anyone looking for a fabulous, well-priced wedding caterer in Chicago.

    A catering company that truly cares!

    We worked with Maison for our wedding in January 2022 and really loved them! Danielle was really responsive and incredibly helpful. She answered all my dumb questions and was really flexible. If you have a budget, she works with you to try to stay as close to that as possible, which I appreciated. There are a lot of catering companies who don't care whether they get your business or not or don't bother to work with your budget, but Danielle truly did, and that made a big difference. Her team are also pros, so they gave us a lot of suggestions for the run of show and made everything really easy the day of.

    The food was delicious. A lot of people gave us compliments about it. And Maison is great if you have people with dietary restrictions or want to get creative with their menu. When we did our tasting, there were a couple items that we mixed and matched with Danielle's recommendations. Also, if you have other vendors, such as alcohol, dessert or late night food, Maison will step in the days before the wedding and take over coordination, which was super helpful and one less thing for s to worry about.

    I would definitely recommend them!

    Delicious Food AND Amazing Team

    We were so excited about our menu from Maison Cuisine that we decided to post it on our wedding website to get guests as excited about it as we were. Not only were the hors-d'oeuvres, meal options, and late-night snack absolutely delicious, but Maison Cuisine also came with an entire crew of servers, bartenders, and leaders to help us coordinate our entire wedding. They all worked seamlessly with the venue coordinators to set up, tear down, and set up again the ceremony, dinner, and reception party. Danielle was very responsive and helpful with all of the planning, and Nick asked all of the right questions to help us throw the best day ever!

    Best Wedding Caterer!

    Look no further - Maison Cuisine NEEDS to be your caterer for your wedding day.

    We booked Maison Cuisine for our 60 person wedding in June 2021, and we are so thankful we did. Danielle and her team were amazing to work with - from the tasting to the clean-up they were consistently on our side, making sure they understood what we wanted/expected and 100% meeting our needs. They are very seasoned with weddings and helped us think through elements of the wedding that would have completely slipped through the cracks with a less experienced caterer. Chelsea and Nick were the two event coordinators/leads for our wedding and they are both fantastic. They made sure food was served on time and even set out all the table decor, plates, linens, etc AND made sure to bring up champagne and hors d'oeuvres just for the bride and groom after the ceremony. They did an outstanding job.

    I am so thankful for Maison Cuisine. They made our wedding day seamless, and we had so many compliments on the food (having excellent food was really important to us)! They went above and beyond what I expected of a wedding caterer, and I would not hesitate to hire them again for any big events in the future.

    Maison Cuisine's reply:

    Thank you Emily! It was amazing working with you! Thank you for choosing Maison to be a part of your special day!

    Best wedding food ever!!

    We were so lucky to stumble on Maison Cuisine. Danielle and her team are insanely talented, incredibly accommodating, and very reasonably priced in the Chicago market. Several guests mentioned they offered the best wedding food they had ever had. We opted for a cocktail-style, all appetizers dinner and went for waves of different offerings, keeping people very well fed and happy. Maison Cuisine had tons of choices for any dietary restriction and preferences, making out vegetarian, vegan, and gluten free friends super happy! Our only regret is that we, my husband and I, missed out on a lot of the food from being so busy! Maison Cuisine also allowed us to bring in different outside food vendors for specific things and still handled putting out that food, which was incredibly gracious. Finally the staff, chefs, servers and bartenders, was incredible. They truly went the extra mile, were extremely attentive to my groom and myself, all the way to packing up all leftovers really nicely. I will recommend Maison Cuisine forever!

    Delicious Food and AMAZING service

    I do not know how to express how amazing Danielle and her team are to work with. Our wedding was originally going to be in Chicago and because of Covid we moved it to Wisconsin. I was so excited about catering because at our tasting we were blown away with how good the food was.
    Danielle and her team still caterered our wedding which was outdoors and at a house. They did an amazing job from bar service, cocktail hour, dinner, cake, and clean up. Our guests were raving about the food. It all came out steaming and was delicious just like it was at the tasting.
    Danielle was extremely responsive to all my annoying emails and was SO helpful with set up as well.
    I want to have another big event just so I can have them cater again. 1000x would recommend booking them!

    Maison Cuisine saved my wedding day!

    We were scrambling for a caterer after changes to our day due to COVID. With only ~2 week's notice, Danielle was able to put together a passed hors d'oeuvres and bar service for a 2 hour event (and didn't bat an eye to all the mind/menu-changing in the process). She was super quick to respond to my emails, stayed in our budget, and her team was SO GREAT day-of. Very professional, kind, and overall wonderful!

    Amazing catering team!

    Danielle and the team at Maison saved our wedding! After our original wedding caterer went out of business, Danielle’s team stepped up on short notice to take over the catering for our wedding, and all the other weddings the previous caterer left hanging. Danielle took over our catering contract at our remaining cost, without sacrificing anything from our original menu and vision. We can’t emphasize enough how AMAZING Danielle and her team were to work with, and what an incredible gift they gave to us with their incredible service during our wedding. They were wonderful!

    As we planned our menu and decor, Maison was incredibly thorough, suggesting ways to get the most out of our budget without sacrificing the vision for our wedding. During the reception, everything went off without a hitch and Nick, our catering manager, made sure we were really well taken care of. As we entered the venue, Nick even brought us our favorite drinks! It was a really thoughtful touch that showed us how well their team knew us by the start of the event. The food they served was exceptional and all of our guests raved about how delicious our meal was.

    Maison comes with our highest recommendation!

    Incredible team to work with!

    We used Maison Cuisine for our staffing, appetizers, and rentals at our wedding this past December. We couldn't have been more happy working with Danielle, Sarah, and Chelsea. From beginning to end they were super organized and helpful. They thought of small details, like making sure we had drinks and and a plate of appetizers (chicken and waffle cone app was awesome) right after the ceremony while we signed the marriage license.

    They worked with my wife and I to create a wedding that felt like us. So if you want to work with a team that has the knowledge to create a unique wedding that reflects who you are as a couple, then Maison will be the prefect fit.

    Affordable and flexible

    While their own food is very good (try the teriyaki beef skewers, they're incredible), the real key is that they'll work with local restaurants' catering teams to make your wedding dinner truly special. We had Honey Butter Fried Chicken as our entree, and everyone we've spoken to was super happy with the food.

    You won't regret using Maison Cuisine

    From the beginning, Danielle was great to work with. She responds to messages so quickly and is very thorough with how the process works. She is a wealth of knowledge and is so flexible with all our requests.

    She is budget friendly AND THE FOOD IS GREAT! Please please please choose her!

    Absolutely delicious and gorgeous food

    We knew immediately we wanted to go with Maison Cuisine once we met Danielle and tasted her food! Everything was beyond delicious, beautiful, full portions and made with love :) We’ve received SO many compliments on how amazing our appetizers, dinner, cheese cake (literally made out of cheese) , and Late night food was. Danielle and her crew were so professional and friendly to work with. She was upfront with us and honest and you could just tell she wants to make every event the best. They were wonderful and we would highly recommend her to anyone! Thank you again!

    Danielle is amazing to work with and her food is out of this world! From start to finish, working with Danielle was amazing. She gave us so much guidance on timeline, menu, alcohol vendors, rentals, etc. We probably emailed back and forth over a hundred times before the wedding and she always replied quickly! Her staff was incredible: so friendly, professional, and attentive to us and our guests. We got SO many compliments on the food. Some of our guests told us they were just waiting by the kitchen door for more lobster rolls to come out bc they were so good! One of the best decisions we made for our wedding was hiring Danielle and Maison Cuisine.

    Danielle and her team at Maison Cuisine recently catered my wedding at the Dank Haus and I really can’t say enough good things about our experience. From the very first email, Danielle was quick to respond, professional, and extraordinarily helpful. After our tasting there was no doubt that we absolutely needed MC to cater our wedding because the food we had was amazing.

    In those crazy final days, Danielle would respond to my million emails and questions in lightning fast fashion. She was on top of everything and that really helped put me at ease.

    On our wedding day, everything was set up perfectly and right on time. The staff that we had that day was incredible. They were professional, polite, and provided some of the best dining service I have ever had. After our wedding, our guests could not stop raving about how wonderful the bartender and all the servers were.

    As for the food day of….well that was spectacular too. My only regret is that I didn’t try to cram more food in because everything tasted amazing. Our guests also raved about the food and even 2 weeks later, will bring up how great everything was.

    I really and truly cannot recommend Maison Cuisine enough.

    We looked at a number of caterers for our wedding before settling on Maison, and we're so glad we chose them. Danielle was very professional, accommodating and easy to work with. The food was delicious and served in a professional manner. Many of the guests complimented us on it. I've heard many people say they didn't have time to eat during their weddings, but I made sure to do so. and my mango chicken was scrumptious. Highly recommended. - Lon Wehrle (groom)

    Danielle and her team were great to work with! She was one of the approved caterers at Salvage One, and I'd heard a lot of positive things about her from other folks. I was planning our Chicago wedding from the East Coast and it didn't phase Danielle at all. She was prompt in her responses, very organized and took the time to walk me through everything remotely.

    We finally met face-to-face about a month before our wedding to do our walk through. We had some issues with the vendors I had selected for our cake and booze liquor store. Both fell through at the last minute. I was really stressed about it and Danielle went above and beyond.... offering some other alternatives who ended up being easy to work with and worked out perfectly.

    On our wedding day, Danielle's team was there on time and made sure everything ran smoothly. The food and the service was great. They even made a plate for us during cocktail hour to make sure we were able to enjoy everything. I'd highly recommend Maison Cuisine.

    I cannot say enough great things about Maison. The tasting and correspondence were all great before the wedding, and then the day of everything was truly fantastic! The catering staff was particularly wonderful! They even made plates of food for the bride and groom and brought them to our seats. And they brought us coffee!

    All of the guests complimented the food and the staff, too. I loved it, they were super nice and efficient, and to hear that other people were really excited about the food as well was the icing on the cake!

    Danielle was very prompt and friendly in responding to my inquiries and when I gave her an idea of what we wanted to do (stations with appetizers and small plate dishes), she sent her general menu (with prices for everything) and also a sample menu from a previous wedding, so right away I had a clear idea of costs, which was very important to me.

    When we met Danielle at her house for the tasting, she was very friendly and welcomed our input and questions about the menu. We were very happy with the wide range of foods we had, and I was sold. She was very laid back and easy to communicate with. I was a very low maintenance bride, and I just wanted things to be as easy as possible.

    The week of the wedding we had a long conversation going over all of the rentals and how the day was going to go. I hung up feeling confident that Danielle would execute everything just as I planned. I didn't have a wedding planner or coordinator, so I was glad that she was handling the communication with the rental company and would be setting everything up the day-of.

    Our wedding was at Kitchen Chicago, and after the ceremony the staff turned the room around for dinner very quickly while our guests enjoyed cocktails in the back of the room. Everyone loved the food (I especially enjoyed the passed apps we chose - shrimp skewers, prosciutto wrapped mozzarella, guacamole, and mushroom bruschetta), and the service was great. One server made sure my husband and I always had plenty of food, and everyone was friendly and responsive. We stayed at the venue until everyone went home - the Maison staff cleaned up everything thoroughly as my family and I packed up our decorations.
    Overall my wedding turned out just as I had imagined, and Maison Cuisine was a big part that!

    This was my favorite vendor of the wedding. Besides an initial scare when she tried to reschedule our tasting at the last minute Danielle was a joy to work with. She was responsive to all of my requests and emails, easy to get a hold of and very flexible. She altered our planned menu after the tasting to my request and the food was fantastic. It was delicious and unique while also hitting the mark of being well-liked by guests with many different tastes. The staff that they provided was incredible. I got tons of compliments about their service and help and they were all very professional and responsive to guests. This may be the best vendor of our wedding. I would very highly recommend them.

    Danielle is an utter joy to work with. She truly understands the level of care and attention required to operate a successful, service based business in 2012. Her food is simple and delicious. Her staff was made up of the most friendly people imaginable. One of them stayed by our table most of the night making sure that it was orderly as we went about our wedding routines and greetings. Every single one of them was friendly and willing to go beyond their duties in order to make our even a success. I cant speak highly enough of Danielle, her team and the event they put on for us.
