Chef's Choice catered our wedding in Oct 2020 and they did a great job. Because of the pandemic, there were obviously several measures they put in place, but I felt that did a great job explaining all the extra safety measures to try to keep all of our guests safe. The food was also very tasty and the service was great!

I give this catering comany a 2 star because less than week before the wedding they up charged $300. They said it was due to covid which I understand but the contract was signed and we kept constant communication with the company so it should have been caught. Due to the timing I had to pay it and they did not work with me at all.

I am so happy that we went with Chef's Choice for our wedding. Not only was the staff simply amazing, guests raved about the food also. I was told by multiple people that it was the best wedding food that they had ever had. Everyone was so kind and helpful, they truly helped the day go by smoothly! I can't recommend them enough!

Chef's Choice catered our wedding day and they were absolutely fabulous! The food was absolutely delicious! We are thankful that they made accommodations for one of our guests who has severe allergies. They also brought my grandparents their food, which was a very nice touch! We would definitely recommend them for catering any event!
