Ceruti's kitchen is filthy. I was employed there for a short time and I would advise no one to come there for catering. They do not clean, there are crumbs, encrusted food everywhere and it's disgusting. I would suggest looking elsewhere for a more healthy and sanitized experience.

The venue was beautifully decorated, very inviting! The food was delicious. I really loved the vegetables - a zucchini, squash and mushroom mix. The service was wonderful. All the staff were very pleasant and efficient. Everything was sanitary. I really enjoyed myself.
