If I could have given Alison and her staff more than 5 stars, I would have. We hosted a birthday party for my father. I'm from out of town, so it was really important that I work with someone who could run the entire event for me. I gave Alison some general ideas of what we wanted and she came back with a menu that was perfect for us. Alison handled rentals, staffing, drinks, set up and clean up. The food was absolutely A+. Alison's staff was incredibly efficient, friendly, and helpful. I would use AMG again in a heartbeat.

This company was absolutely amazing. We hired them for our wedding and the entire team did an incredible job. Alison (the owner) was always very responsive with e-mails and always on top of everything that we needed. In addition to the great communication, the food was also absolutely amazing. Every single thing that they included in the meal was perfect and also very reasonably priced. I cannot recommend this company enough, thanks for a great experience!

Ali at AMG catering came into our wedding planning like a breath of fresh air. We were sure we wanted a backyard wedding, but we weren't sure on food and Covid was making it difficult to finalize numbers. But there was Ali taking it all in, running with ideas, providing options, and the whole time projecting the confidence that she would produce amazing results no matter what. And the wedding day went so smoothly.
The food was delicious. There was plenty of friendly staff to serve the food and keep all our guests fed and happy. It was everything we wanted for our wedding and we are so grateful for Ali and AMG for taking such good care of us and our guests on such an important day.

I cannot say enough nice things about our experience with AMG for our daughter's wedding last weekend. From the very first email asking if she was available, Ali was incredibly responsive, enthusiastic, helpful, and guided us through what I'm sure can be a very stressful process if you don't have the right caterer. The food was INCREDIBLE.I think every single guest said something to us about how good it was and I'm not exaggerating.
And not only was everything delicious, Ali and her equally amazing staff somehow figured out how to get 82 bowls of soup served while they were all still hot (in a tent, on a cold and damp evening no less!). Her staff was top notch - from bartenders to waitstaff - they were all polite, friendly, and really, really good at their jobs. I cannot recommend AMG enough - they are the best!

Do not search any further for your event - hire AMG! Delicious food, phenomenal staff! We had a backyard wedding, and AMG did everything for us. Days prior to our event, Allison met with us along with Laina (event manager extraordinaire!) to make sure everything ran smoothly. Day of, the staff arrived early, set everything up, and made sure everything was coordinated. We really didn't have to think about anything - they just did it all for us (which is exactly what you want on your special day).
I can't say enough great things about the staff - incredibly attentive, professional, and fun! You could tell that they genuinely cared about making our day special. They left my kitchen spotless and plenty of extra leftovers in the fridge. Overall, I'm VERY impressed with AMG and will absolutely be working with them in the future.
